    I have an Acer computer I want to do a total restore. It came with windows 7 starter edition, and then I bought Microsoft word for it. If Microsoft word will lose if I do the restoration?

    If you purchased Word on CD, it's no big deal; just reinstall it after the factory restore. If it was bought online, copy the file downloaded to a CD and then reinstall it later.

    Is there a particular reason, why you want to do a restore complete? Have you problems? If so, you can try asking here on how to fix them and do not have to do a restore, reinstall all your programs and all of the updates and service pack 1.

  • 13 and 14 Firefox installs incorrectly on my windows 7 starter edition. Also, I can not the Scrapbook addon to work. Can you tell me why?

    I tried to install Firefox 13 and 14 on my netbook, a starter for Windows 7 operating system running. The installation starts to go smoothly since the file setup.exe; but after the installation appears to be complete, and I press the button "Open Firefox" program of firefox can be seen to start opening because it accumulates approximately 50 MB of private bytes RAM on the windows task manager or the service program of "process explorer" from sysinternals. However, the firefox window never opens and so firefox does not appear to be installed properly. "" Also I had problems with getting the album ' addon to install properly. " I have another computer, a laptop, XP family and I can get Firefox to 13 or 14 to install but it is on the other computer that I can't get the 'Scrapook' addon to install correctly. There is no notice on the Addon page saying the addon "Scrapbook" does not work on Firefox 13 or 14 and the addon installs, but not properly, so it does not work.

    I have old files Firefox setup.exe, and if I'm successful to install an older version, firefox 3 or 4 on an external hard drive. I got this old firefox to work on XP Home Edition on a hard drive external laptop and can successfully use the addon "Scrapbook" in this way.

    I don't understand why I have problems with Firefox 13 or 14. I think I first noticed the problem with Firefox 12 "Scrapbook".

    Thank you marcsances for your reply very comprehensive. Your advice jogging my memory, so before I have done as you suggest, I reinstalled Firefox 14 and then uninstalled using the windows 7 program/control panel uninstall installation. In doing so, the Firefox uninstall window opens and when asked to choose to uninstall any program or all personal settings etc. too, choose to uninstall all personal settings too. I then reinstalled Firefox 14 and the Scrapbook addon and they now work correctly.

    I daresay that your instructions are quite right, in this case, I don't have to go through the command prompt.

    Thank you.

  • What is the difference between Windows 7 starter edition and the complete software of Windows 7?

  • The 3rd part of a windows update will not install. What can I do?

    Hi there Microsoft overlords. I was wondering if you could help me. I've seen a similar thread on the final update not install it, but I don't know enough about variables in order to know if it is a minor or major problem and how to fix it. Any help woul be appreciated.

    I am running Windows Vista on a Toshiba Sataleite Pro 2010. I ran two FULL virus scans last night, with Avast free protection and another with Windows Essentials I think. Windows has found a number of serious threats that I hit the function apply on. Then I did a scan with Avast.

    Then after I finished the second virus with Avast scan, the laptop began something strange. The screen went black shortly after it (not immediately think"I") and he began to make a safe-mode-esque all programs, including the documents and my downloads of loading. He said it was a bookkit or a rootkit or something similar. I don't quite remember.

    In any case, I leave this list of command of rootkit series go on a little I don't know initially, he said "I want to check all the files of rootkit or bookkit for security", yet once I do not what that.

    I let happen to 7% completed which took between 30 minutes and an hour to reach. I then press ESC to cancel the process which he allowed me to do.

    After that, the pc began to restart dozens of times trying to reinstall a 3rd update of windows (which remains at zero percent).

    If it's any help I had a windows update for last night. I had to have one, but I postponed it for a few hours.

    Also, I think that the laptop can (MAY I'm not sure) ran out of power last night to stop.

    I think I let him run out of power because he was stupid before you stop, even if I can't be sure.

    Thanks for any help, if you need more information do not hesitate to answer.

    p.s. I tried to go to SafeMode to start again, but now it is useful. Safe mode programs load then IMMEDIATELY (until I can get to s a start menu or anything like that), she goes in this cycle to shutdown/reboot/update.

    Thank you. Helllp me :-)

    My apologies. I don't know much on the PC at all and I couldn't remember what I had done or read yesterday evening.

    Fortunately, my laptop is now fixed. I had nothing too precious that I had not already supported so my brother reinstalled windows on it again and it is fine now.

    Thanks for the help. Soon :)

  • Windows 7 Starter Edition and LabWindows/CVI

    Hello

    I have two questions/problems with an application written with CVI 9.0.1 and CVI 2009 respectively Windows Vista professional.

    First if I have a distribution of my software package (or a version of a sample distribution package) and you want to install it on a netbook with Windows 7 Starter Edition Setup displays the following error message:

    "This product does not support Windows Starter Edition."

    Is this just a restriction of the installation program, or CVI will never support the Starter Edition?

    We often sell these netbooks as well as our units of measurement as an input/output device. But I think that in a future close all netbooks will use Windows 7 instead of XP and above all the Starter Edition.

    So if it is not taken in charge this will help upgrade netbooks to Windows 7 Home Premium? I have already tested Windows 7 Professional and it works, but I do not want to install Professional on a netbook...

    My second question also the Starter Edition.

    I'm building a kit of distribution of working space example "interp.cws" (curve fit and Interpolation) with the runtime engine installed in the application directory. If I run the .msi instead of the setup.exe package then the software has been installed on the system.

    So I can run the software, and it seems to work. But if the software calls a function in the library of analysis advanced (for example, the Spline Interpolation) it does not work. With remote debugging I discovered that there was a nonlethal runtime error "the analysis DLL library is not found or could not be loaded" during the spline function calls.

    The same sample works fine with Windows 7 Professional.

    Is this also a restriction of the CVI, and will be the reason (or one of the reasons) did not support the Starter Edition?

    Or is there a workaround for these errors?

    Best regards

    M.S.

    National Instruments supports Windows 7 Starter; However, just as now, our facilities are defined to stop any Windows Starter Edition is detected.  This is because XP and Vista Starter Editions were marketed to emerging markets and had severe limitations of performance.

    You should make sure that your specific product supports Windows 7.  If this is the case you can follow the instructions in the knowledge base

    Hello

    If the DVD drive is not detected, you won't be able to reinstall from a disk operating system or manufacturer's recovery disks. You need to check and see if the drive is seen by the system BIOS. Otherwise he, or the wiring connection must be replaced or the drive may be dead and must be replaced.

    For the rest of the problems, do what Mick has suggested and perform a restore of the system to a point prior to the installation of these games.
