• Need help to reinstall Vista on Bootcamp/Fusion

  Hi all

  I read through many guides to (very useful) instructions on how to install Vista Ultimate on a bootcamp partition and then load it in VMware Fusion, but I can't understand for the life of me (probably due to my lack of General knowledge with Windows) how to do a clean reinstall.

  I installed a Vista partition on my MacBook Pro (OS 10.5.7) a year ago and then successfully related to VMware fusion so that I can run at the same time as my Mac.  I chose to do a bootcamp rather than running installation in a purely virtual, because when grumpy people on the coast is must log remotely on my computer and mud autour, I thought it would be easier for them if it was installed on a real partition.

  However, I started having some software conflicts between Outlook and a piece of the company that owns the software, and they told me that the only way they can fix it is with a clean reinstall.  Everything that I need to the wide Vista is saved on my Mac and a reader network, but I don't know how to reinstall Vista.  Should I start Vista or do through the Bootcamp assistant?  Or do I have to delete the partition?

  All statements that can be provided would be very appreciated.  Also, I intend to move to VMware Fusion 2 (I use 1), while I'm bothering with all this, so if anyone has recommendations on the best time throughout this process of transition, which would also be very useful.  Thank you!

  Here we that I recommend:

  1. in Mac OS X, load the BootCamp Assistant

  2. There is an option to create or remove a Bootcamp partition. You want to delete the existing partition

  3 go ahead again through Bootcamp Vista installation

  4 voila, you have a clean install of Vista running on your Bootcamp partition.

  5. restart Windows. Activate it.

  6. restart in Mac OS X.

  7. If you previously had VMWare fusion configured to use your Bootcamp partition, you need to remove the VMware configuration files, located within somewhere like this:

  ~/Library/application support/VMWare Fusion / Virtual Machines / Boot

  Camp.

  8. ensure that you have upgraded from VMware to the latest version

  9. the fire to the top of VMware, it should detect your new Bootcamp partition. Load the virtual machine and install the VMware tools

  10. restart your virtual machine.

  11 activate Windows again. Voila. You now have the option to boot natively in Windows, or using Windows through VMware.

• Need help to reinstall Vista

  Hello

  I would like to reinstall windows vista Home premium. However, I have some problems with it. First of all, I reformatted my hard drive from FAT32 to NTFS as I heard it was better. Now the hard drive does not appear in my computer. So until I fix it, I can't back up my files. My second problem is that Vista is preinstalled on my computer. I have the original in car Image, but I don't have the software of HP recovery for some reason any. What ever you guys can do to help would be greatly appreciated. If it helps I have an available HijackThis log file.

  Thank you
  Jake

  Normally, you will need to press F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

• Need help with the decision of the laptop

  I'm sorry for the length of this post, but I really need help. I am buying a laptop and what should be a very exciting perspective (my first laptop purchase) turns into a nightmare that had me pretty much in tears over the weekend.

  My budget is not big - absolute maximum of 600 pounds, but I'd rather spend a little less than that.

  I mainly work of office (Word, Excel, database and PowerPoint) and also some Photoshop work. I also play a strategy game called Caesar 3. I want to charge my copy of XP on the computer or replace Vista or as a partition.

  Looking through the available templates in my price range and rising benchmarks, I found the following:

  Most have processors such as the Intel T5250 or T5450 or AMD TL 58, which are all rated as ok, but not very well. Some have the AMD TL 60, which is a little better and one or two have the T7200 Intel which is even better.

  On most of the machines graphics cards are the ATI Radeon Xpress X 1200 or the Intel GMA X 3100. These two are calibrated as not terrible and the review says that they cannot manage strategy games. Some of the models have the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 and HD 2400XT and one or two have the HD 2600.

  The problem is that the models that have the best processor have the lower rated graphics card and those who do not have XP drivers, I see.

  Don't mind a 15.4 screen "(although the 17.1" would be very nice to have) and want a pretty big hard drive (160 +). I get 2 GB of RAM.

  I'm at my wits end. I don't want to buy a computer that will eventually take a minute or more to refresh a screen when you have more than two things open, or you will have to keep rebooting to make it work. I want to be able to play my one and only (Caesar III) game which is a strategy game and I want to be able to work in Photoshop and maybe one or two other things open at the same time, as a website perhaps.

  Help me please, anyone. I asking the impossible? I can't get my hands on an email address for Toshiba try to get clarity on their part on the issue of drivers and they will be available in the future.

  Then there is of course the issue detailing as each stock only a limited number of models, and we must choose between those detailing.

  I hope someone can help me!

  Hello

  The problem is you want to buy a laptop all over the place but don t want to spend a lot of money.

  In addition, you want to change the XP operating system and have XP drivers.

  Well it's boyfriend very difficult decision ;)

  A laptop for gaming with the graphics power full card cost slightly more than £ 600
  If you need to make a decision; You want to buy a gaming laptop and to spend more than £ 600 or you will have a notebook that is ideal for everyday use, like watching DVDs, in collaboration with the office software, etc.

  The Caesar game is unknown to me, but I assume that it doesn t need a graphics card high performance and it should work on a normal phone too.

  I think that a Satellite a200 is not bad choice for you, because some A200 laptop computers were shipped with the Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card.

  And very important is that all the XP drivers were already released ;)

• I am trying to reinstall vista on another laptop and when I get to the last step (end Installation...) it stops, about 70% of the way through. Now what? I tried to repeat the process about 6 times now!

  I am trying to reinstall vista on another laptop and when I get to the last step (end Installation...) it stops, about 70% of the way through.  Now what? I tried to repeat the process about 6 times now!

  Sorry for the confusion.  I must be useless to English.

  Forget the two laptops.
  I have a problem with a laptop that I tell you all (the Inspiron 1720).
  The disc that I use is labeled as a Windows Vista reinstall disk and provided with the computer when I bought it.  I'm not trying to use it on another computer.

  Reference Dell it is a problem with a process of recovery of Windows and, therefore, a problem of Microsoft.

  See you soon

  Problems with the Dell restore process, contact Dell.
  Dell wrote their recovery process and provided you with this DVD, NOT Microsoft...

  It is their software.

  Ask them for a different recovery DVDs.

  You say that the hard drive has failed.

  He could have more than just tough that failed.
  You can have other hardware issues.

  Hardware issues are beyond the scope of these Forums.

  Good luck with Dell.

• I need to reinstall Vista on my laptop on a drive, have questions.

  I have a backup disk & need to reinstall Vista.  Clean up some stuff on my laptop before I do it & if sowhat to do?  Thank you.

  Hello

  Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
  If the backup disk is created using any built-in utility (recovery disk), you can use the disk to restore PC to factory default state. If you intend to restore the PC using the disk, the disk may completely format the hard disk and to restore. But, you can start the recovery process from the PC, without the need to restore disc, because the PC contains a separate recovery partition. You can begin the process of recovery of the partition of hard drive also. Consult the manual of the PC user for more information.
