It comes to be able to use the Interface of Windows Vista?

• How findout if all the partitions have been deleted and now a laptop that has Windows 8 operating system using Windows Vista with a shell IE 9?

  I bought a laptop broken at a friend's House. It is not used for the operating system windows 8 and wanted to use the Windows Vista operating system. Son of friends put in place this laptop for it, which was new when she bought in a retail store. Is there a way I can find out whether all the partitions have been deleted during the installation of Vista? I still see window 8 logo that I sign as an administrator user on this laptop.

  When I log on this computer, the previous owner of the screen name is the only one that appears. I go in Control Panel, click Add another account, then I see the screen name I posted. I could use the WiFi from my PC at home that Win 7 OS.

  When I started working with the laptop, I was able to bring control of the camera. Now I thought that the version that I use does not allow this operation. Be happy with any Positive help with my problems.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Start > type CMD

  Right click on CMD and select run as administrator

  Type diskmgmt.msc

  Press enter

  This opens where you can view the partitions on the disk management system

  Who has installed Windows Vista, your son or friend?  Fact that they create a dual boot environment or reformat?

  http://www.technorms.com/8438/Windows-8-create-hard-drive-partition

  Multibooting requires separate partitions on the hard drive of your computer for each operating system.  To create and format a partition, see create and format a hard disk partition.

  To check if a dual boot system in place, start > Type msconfig

  Click on the Startup tab

  You see two operating systems listed?  Windows 8, Windows Vista

  http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/Microsoft/Vista/how-to-change-default-OS-for-dual-boot-system/

  I think that Windows 8 has the following partitions

  400 MB Partition Recovery (contains recovery information dated from before my upgrade)

  • 300 MB EFI System Partition
  • 350 MB Partition Recovery (contains information for recovery of my upgrade)
  • 17 GB Partition Recovery
  • 220 GB of Partition primary

  Windows Vista has drive C and drive D

  Done reformatting refers to a hard disk or partition that already has been formatted or that contains data on it. Reformatting a disk deletes all the data on the disk.

• I can't backup DVD for Windows Vista operating system due to the error of 0x8007001B

  I can't finish a DVD upward on my Windows Vista operating system.  This is due to an 0x8007001B error code.  I was unable to complete the fix to services.msu

  Hi mine,

  This isn't a question of MSE - there is a problem with Vista or your computer or your software backup or your DVD player or its drivers or something else. We are not the right people to answer your question and give you the best possible options and solutions - you have to talk to the experts.

  Please repost at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1304884961900 where specialists who understand and focus to help with these issues will be more than happy to help you.

  Although not my area of expertise (and you're welcome to ignore it and just after to the other forum), I did do research in any case and believe that the problem involves the corruption on your hard drive (although I could certainly be wrong - it is more likely to be the case if the full error message includes "drive cannot find sector requested" but you don't get the full error message, so I don't know). To try to fix it, if that is the problem, follow these steps:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run. They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot. Answer Yes and restart to run the program. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  If this does not work, test better clean your hard drive. To test your hard drive, check the manufacturer and try to diagnosis HD (http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) or this test: hard drive diagnostics tools and utilities (storage) - Corp of TACKtech (http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287). If it passes the tests, there's probably nothing wrong with it and you must do to the other support forum. If it fails, which include in your post on the other forum and let them advise you how to proceed.

  I hope that the above solves the problem. If this isn't the case, I am confident, they can help you in the other forum, because that's what they specialize in. It would help if you posted the message Word for Word that is accurate and complete, including all codes. In addition, it would help them if you explain the difficulty you mention services involving (a link to the site where you found the solution or at least what exactly you did and what has happened or not happened when you tried). And if you've tried my suggestions above, include the results in your message (so they don't ask you to do it again and will be able to exclude).

  Good luck and best wishes!

• Re: Serial number down would work with the other Windows Vista operating system

  First of all sorry for my English.
  I have one question.

  My hard drive is broken with my recovery partition.
  If I download windows vista and install the system with my original serial number on the laptop, this will work or should I activate it after installation.

  I hope it's the same number that the front is installed on my first installation.

  Hello Marcin

  I doubt that the serial number that is placed at the bottom of the device works with another Windows Vista operating system. But it s worth a try
  You could test it I heard it's very rare cases it was possible

  In any case, if your HARD disk is damaged and it of not possible to create a recovery DVD using recovery software Toshiba disc creator, then you must contact the ASP in your country for assistance.

  If the warranty is valid the HARD drive should be replaced just for free. If you need only the recovery DVDs, then you can order it here:

  During a scan, antiviral regular which was initiated by the provider of the antiviral software, the scan did not work properly (i.e., it is still indicating that the scan is in progress, but nothing happens - no status progress which is now 50 + hours).  Contact the vendor of the antiviral software, they gave me the steps to perform a disk cleanup and then a reboot of the mode without failure followed by steps to remove TEMP files.  At halfway through the disk cleanup process, a pop-up window has stated that: "Windows - files required for Windows File Protection is running properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.»  To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files.  Insert your Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 CD now. "The Windows disks have not inserted according to the instructions, but instead, I contacted the antiviral software vendor to make sure that there is no unintended consequence.  The software provider antiviral indicated that Microsoft should be contacted as there can be some files that have been compromised that stopped the disk cleanup.  Windows XP (version 2005) operating system was pre-installed by the company of Toshiba laptop.  Question: I should restart the disk cleanup process as described by the antiviral software provider, and if there is another popup window indicating the information as mentioned above, service pack of Windows XP CD should be inserted?  Note: I was told Toshiba CD provided by them for the laptop contains the Windows XP operating system software.  The two provided Toshiba CD entitled, "Recovery and Applications/drivers DVD Satellite A100/A105 Series."  Question: Are there possible negative conseguences because the provided CD/DVDs have possible applications and drivers on them?  Thank you.

• Do not open programs after installing Windows update operating system Windows Vista

  Original title: MS Office programs do not open after installation of Windows update to Windows Vista operating system

  After having decided to install the Windows Update my computer told me was available all my software as my programs MS Offfice is no longer open.  I don't know what to do.  The only thing that still works is the Windows Media Player.  I can't open Word or Excel, I can't access my photos.  Open Internet Explorer is like a weird nightmare but I am able to access the Internet.  I tried reinstalling my MS Office software, which did not work.  I have no idea what to do to solve the problem, but I need my computer back. It was good except for its slow, when I open certain programs, now I can't access something.  Any ideas what I should do to correct the nightmare?

• PNY attached 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive recognized but does not work under the Windows 7 operating system

  I have an attached PNY 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive that works perfectly on Windows XP. But when I try to use it on a Windows 7 operating system, it is very few recognized by Windows 7. I mean at least, is that when I look for the device by exploring 'Computer' in the menu start the device does not appear at ALL. However, when I go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> devices and printers, it shows a device called "DISK 2.0" which I believe are 'minimum' recognition of this 8GB flash drive, I was talking about. Can someone help me get the recognition for this camera on Windows 7? Thank you.

  Edit: I noticed in Device Manager-> USB MASS STORAGE DEVICE-> Propteries the following for my optical mouse Microsoft and the PNY 8 GB flash drive

  The Microsoft Optical mouse is the location: Port_ #0001.Hub_ #0004

  On the MagicJack (USB Composite device) is the location: Port_ #0002.Hub_ #0007

  On the flash drive is the location: 0000.001d.0002.002.000.000.000.000.000

  3rd place property looks pretty weird (Im assuming that third location data for the flash player, since the only other USB devices are my Microsft mouse and the MagicJack I know is a composite device, but I'm wrong.  AMD Athlon 64 3200 + 1GIG memory ATI Radeon X800XL 250gig W.D. hard drive
