  • Two vista operating system installed, but only starts

    Hello

    I hope someone could help me to overcome this problem:

    My laptop with vista venus hm so high-end, as I bought it in Germany had German language. So I bought ultimate in English and do a new installation. I was very happy with it, but yesterday I tried to install the original hp vista to do the dual boot. As it was provided by Toshiba Recovery CD, it was put directly to install on the HARD disk. I knew that it will erase all data, if there is, to HDD1 and install the operating system and other programs (as it was put in the BIOS to boot from there), but previously I already installed the ultimate in disk HARD 2. I thought, the vista hp will be in 1 HDD and ultimate will be in 2 HDD so I can choose at the beginning that one to start.

    However, after the installation of vista hp it show at the beginning of any other OS and just start with vista hp without giving no possibility to choose which start first. I checked this ultimate is also there, but I can't start. Can anyone, please, help me? I'd appreciate any suggestion, information and help. Thank you

    Greetings

    You can use the 'Vista Boot Pro' tool, which is a very good tool to manage the startup options if you have multiple operating systems installed.
    Just go here-> http://www.vistabootpro.org/
    and download the tool.

    With the help of this tool, you should be able to start the two OS´s on your machine.

  • I would like to install Windows XP on my computer and get rid of the Vista operating system. Can I do this? I only have 512 MB of Ram and 32-bit processor.

    Windows XP instead of Vista.

    I would like to install Windows XP on my computer and get rid of the Vista operating system.  Can I do this?  I only have 512 MB of Ram and 32-bit processor.

    Hello

    There are a few things that you would have to do to install XP instead of Vista:

    1. contact the manufacturer of your computer and see if the XP drivers are available for your computer model to make sure that XP has worked properly in this regard.

    2. If the XP Drivers are available, buy a XP disk operating system / license. Try local computer repair shops because Microsoft sells more than XP and online sale buy you pirated copies can cause. Be very careful.

    3 XP runs with 512 MB of RAM, although a little slow by today's standards.

    4. do a clean install of XP. Make sure that all your data is backed up as the hard will be cleaned of everything during the Installation of XP.

  • 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:

  • Download XP Home on computers than rn on Vista operating systems

    I bought a Lap Top that runs on the Vista operating system.  I have my work on a Dell under XP Home machine and want to put the whole package of XP on the Lap Top which has Vista.  I was told that it was impossible, that it can only be charged on a unit of Dell.  I have the XP original software still sealed and never loaded on a computer, so I don't think I would be breaking the laws.  The company I worked for arrangements made with Dell for employees who worked at home to buy hundreds of computers and had them loaded with all the software that they require.  This is the package of XP Home and Dell sent the discs sealed to buyers.  I was one of the buyers and have a new series.  The problem is that it's going to work or Vista shot of it.  I am a novice and you worry mess up Vista and everything I have on the computer.

    Here's what I use and recommend: (all are free and offer exceptional protection)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
    Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

    Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
    (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
    http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
    a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
    Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
    a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    Hello

    I would like to inform you that Jucheck.exe is the process that runs automatically when the Java Update tool is activated. Jucheck.exe usually checks the Internet for the software updates available and invite you to install them to keep your updated program. If you prefer to search and download the Java updates manually whenever you want, disable Java Update automatic tool disables and removes Jucheck.exe
