Problem installation Vista Business 32 Bit ISO on Optiplex GX620

I asked to re - install a company ISO of Vista Business 32-bit specific on some Optiplex GX620s former.

These are the only computers that we have. I tried every method of installation has failed to halfway through or simply does not work.

I tried:

  • Bootable flash drive (this worked the first time but is end of installation even after formatting the disc flash several times). I have been using this method.
  • External DVD USB drive (BIOS is not recognize it as a boot device)
  • Installation on an Optiplex 755, then proceed to the exchange of hard disks. (This causes a restart loop when the hard drive on the GX620 loading, I'm guessing that following a conflict of driver. I can't use the CD we since none of the GX620s have installation DVD players)

My question: is there another way to install this ISO I'm not aware of, or someone knows a way to solve one of the above mentioned conflicts?

I know that is a lot to ask for these older machines, but our resources are overwhelmed, and our budget is not allowing us to buy new desktop computers at the present time.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

I would update your Windows 10130 then Windows 10 Pro machines to make them Windows 10 devices (should you decide to use them with Windows 10). Later, you can reinstall Windows Vista:

The Insider preview will soon expire so this upgrade path will be lost. In regards to the blue screen, run the full pre-launch F12 diagnostics:

  • Order a DVD of installation for Vista Business 64 bit

    Hello

    I recently bought a copy of Vista Business 32 bit of the technology of my college Department. I originally wanted the 64-bit version, but this version is only available for students. I was told, however, that I would be able to order a 64-bit installation DVD. I went to the Windows Vista alternate Media page and entered my product key, but it came with a message that told me that he was not available. I'm just curious what about if I am actually able to order a 64-bit installation DVD or if there is even one for me to order.

    Thank you

  • HP XW6400 problem loading Vista Business

    Hey all,.

    I just took a XW6400 on Ebay and the auction has just declared that he only started the bios configuration screen.  I literally have no idea of the State of functioning of the parts below.  Here are the following specifications:

    4 GB RAM (has not considered whether it is ecc or not)

    Single XEON 5130 (2.0 ghz)

    ATI x 1300 video card

    40 GB SATA hard drive

    SATA 200 GB HDD

    DVD Rom

    DVD Writer/Rom

    Latest version of the BIOS: 2.38 (with the default values loaded)

    Part number: RB318UT #ABA

    Serial number: xxxxxxxxxx

    I use the computer for mainly surfing the net, playing some older games, but absolutely nothing of what the computer was destined (all resources, graphics intensive applications, etc.).  It's going to be my computer shop for internet research on how to fix pinball machines.  I am using computers for 30 years, so aware of all material am but not at a technical level of COMPUTING.  I can take pictures, or perform diagnostics that help solve this problem and post it here if necessary.

    I'm having a lot of trouble with a very slow loading Vista Business x 64 (ISO DVD created vistax64.com image).  It literally took about 8 hours now, from one day to the next, and I'm finally in the "Complete the Installation" installation (the progress bar green to low is about 75%) and he's been there 45 minutes now, but it could be longer, just noticed this after waking up and controlled again.  I would appreciate help with the following questions:

    #1: loading XP pro, the system stops just to the material 'verification' screen and locks upward.  Could be a problem with the Vista question above?

    #2: is it possible to load Windows 7 Home Premium on the machine, as well as the edition of Vista Business no?  The installation will simply not work on the machine if you use the standard version of Vista?

    #3: when you use the NON ecc memory, the computer performs strangely like that?  It is absolutely a requirement of memory ECC FB when not to use applications requiring?

    #4: if it finally load on the system and the system seems to work ok, is this slow loading problem a precursor to everything that you guys can imagine of?  Or I was just in the hospital?

    #5: when you add another processor, read the code of the same batch of CPU guarantees compatibility for a two-way configuration?  Or can I just get any other Xeon 5130?

    #6: I don't have a floppy drive on the system, but you guys can recommend a good hardware bootable USB or CD/DVD test software, which is a freeware if all goes well?

    #7: I lent my copy of Vista professional before, so I guess it's possible (but unlikely) someone could use the certificate of authenticity.  The installation say he is recorded online for you.  Is it possible that the copy has been used and is already registered to someone else?  Which would explain this problem?

    #8: is it possible to get a CD of HP restore again?

    I did the memory test on the Vista installation CD, and it passes.  I also shared my GForce 9800 GTX video card and am having the same problem.  Also, any general troubleshooting other thoughts would be appreciated.

    -Pat

    Edit: I went to the appointment of a DR and the come back about an hour and a half later, since this original post.  Now, during the installation screen complete, the progress bar has moved maybe another 10% is now about 85%.  It seems to load, but why so ssllooww?

    P.S. We have removed a number of your post for your secutiry. That is the information you probably don't want available to the public. -HP moderator of the Forum

    I got it to work.  Unfortunately, it is not useful for searching the Internet.  But i:

    Reduced system memory 2 gig.

    Renewed, cleaned and reinstall thermal paste for the cpu and the heatsink.

    removed the hard drive the system came with and just used well-known 200gig hard drive.

    Left the hard drive and cdrom SATA0 and SATA1, SATA2, and SATA3.

    And the big one, I loaded Win7 x 64 home premium.

    I'm typing on it now and updated as we speak.  However, I am always interested some of the answers to the questions.

    #1: what will happen if I used of non - ecc memory?  The system works not at all, or be slow?

    #2: and it is always possible to obtain HP restore disks?  (Edit 12/14)  I was not able to find a way to get drives install in addition to bring 2nd hand (ebay), but most of the original software is located on the support xw6600 site.

    I ordered 2 XEON Processors off ebay, another 8 GB of ram and the hp cpu heatsink and fan.  Time for fun!

  • Vista Business 64-Bit with AutoCAD 2009 does not seem to use all 8 GB of RAM available.

    A workstation newly built (S5000XVN Intel / Xeon / 8 GB RAM / 2 GB RAM video) with Windows Vista Business 64-bit is used with AutoCAD 2009 (64-bit).  The workstation hangs under stress, apparently because not enough RAM is available.  ("Stress" is "Turning entirely made of a certain complexity 3D drawings")

    The Task Manager / Performance tab indicates never to use RAM above about 3.25 GB, even if ten or more concurrent applications are loaded, including IE 8 (6 graphically heavy windows) and AutoCAD with 6 or more complex drawings open at the same time.

    There are two issues, I think:
    1. in the event that a busy workstation indicate use RAM above the 32-old bit of 3.2 GB limit?
    2 are there MS Windows Vista settings that are necessary to ensure the use of RAM available?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I studied the installation of AutoCAD 2009.  It's actually the 64-bit version that is installed, and the Task Manager reports it as a 64-bit application when it runs.  (In other words, it is not marked as a 32 bit application.)

    I must admit that I no longer believe that the machine is running out of resources or do not use all the resources available to it.  We tested the machine by throwing 18 complex, fully rendering the 3D drawings within the Academy, in addition to two cases of IE 8, three instances of Explorer Windows and MS Windows Mail.  Use of the RAM did climb, reaching finally the 4.06 GB, clearly indicating that the 32-bit 3.2 GB limit has been exceeded.  It seems that just drawings don't take up that much RAM.  BTW, there was no increase in the paging activity that I could see.

    However, the application does not seem to be frozen or looping when the client attempted to turn one of the drawings.  The CPU on the two wires (Xeon processor) usage increased to 55% and remained there. the State of the process, as reported by the task manager went to "Not responding" and stayed there; and the display of the image froze on an empty workspace, with a three seconds flash drawing on every 20 seconds.

    So: It now seems that there is a problem with AutoCAD, not a Vista problem.  I would appreciate comments, however, if you think that this analysis is wrong, incomplete or based on wrong assumptions.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Reuse an old copy of Vista Business 32-bit

    Hello

    I have a copy of Vista Business 32 bit that I bought so at College and I wanted to install it on a laptop more old that I have (just something to have on the laptop to make it usable until I can buy a copy of Windows 7). I went through the installation process and when I was asked to validate the key on the DVD that I got a "the code you entered is in use, please type a different code" or something of the sort. At this point, I remembered that I used the DVD a few years trying to fix a computer for my mother. This computer has since surpassed this world. My question is this: is there a way to get that code off or released so that I can use it on another computer. I have the original disk and COA code for the disk. I just don't remember if it was a one time use or not and if it's possible. Otherwise it's not a big deal, as I said I am decided on buying a copy of 7, just do not know when, was just a shot in the water the hopes that I could reuse the old code.

    As long as the code is not still active elsewhere, you are free to use forever once again, on any computer (one at a time).

    To reset the number of activations, just call the number 1-800 that shows on this error message.  Tell the operator and they will reset the meter and it let you to install again.

  • SONY Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo MS-HX16A doesn't work in Vista Business 32-bit

    When I insert my memory stick Duo PRO-HG in my laptop gateway E - 155 running Vista 32-bit Professional (Service Pack 2), and I check the Device Manager, a device called "MemoryDisk0" appears under the "Disk drives" section of Device Manager.  It runs by default windows drivers disk.sys and partmg.sys.  The disk memory is not recognized by Windows (it does appear as a hard drive under 'Computer'), or he 'fills' when this button is pressed under "Volume" in the Panel properties for MemoryDisk0 (I get an error msg).  ALSO: if I hit "Scan for hardware changes" or even "Uninstall" for this device, the system just loops - nothing happens, and I have to use Windows Task Manager to end the task.  ALSO: if I try to restart my computer, Windows will not come - I need to remove the Memory stick or return o a previous installation of good.

    How can I get Windows Vista Business 32-bit to recognize the drive correctly?  I visited the site of SONY, and the only driver I can find for sticks of memory is the MSAC-EX1.  I did try and 'forcing' Device Manager Vista to load this driver for MemoryStick0, but Windows says that it is not a compatible driver.

    Hello

    1. When you mention "I get a msg of error", what is you get the exact error message?

    In Device Manager , right-click on the "MemoryDisk0" and select Properties, and check what error code you get and post back with the details.

    2. have you tried to connect a different Memory Stick?

    If other USB keys connect very well, then I think your SONY Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo MS-HX16A could be faulty and you may have to contact Sony for better help.

    Afterwards, do a right-click on the device (MemoryDisk0) in Device Manager and try to update and check if that helps.

  • Window vista business 32 bit auto update not install SP1

    I have Window vista business 32 bit on Sony Vaio laptop. My automatic update of the window is on, a lot of updates were installed, I can't find the SP1.  I checked the updates, saw "the view update history" but can't find SP1.  Basic information system shows no service pack. 'Winver' shows Version 6.0 (6000 building). All other window updates have been installed except "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express edition service pack 3 (KB955706) who is still unable to install, do not know for what reason." I guess that there is no link between the failed SQL and SP1. It is after a complete reinstall of Vista 3-4 days back.

    Prior to the relocation is in that the original version, Vista SP1 was installed automatically by the Update window.
    I wonder if SP1 is already installed, but is not displayed or should I download and install it manually.

    Thank you. I was able to install SP1 and SP2 after the changes and the process you described.

  • Vista Business 32 bit crash version after the addition of mor to 2 GB RAM

    I am running Vista, up to this point, that I was able to make it work for me, and when I couldn't run my GIS software in Vista I used VistaBoot Pro and started in XP. I was with 2 GB of RAM and I tried to add more 2 GB and when I booted into Vista it cling to the bars of the screen with the green movement and would not go further. I can boot XP using any combination of 4 GB of memory, even if XP does recognize that 3.24 GB. So, why does Vista Business 32 bit version not starting?

    Hi Mikelmac,

    The option is disabled if the operating system installed on your computer is greater than the version available on DVD, and on the bottom of the screen even, you will find a message indicating the reason for the same.

    If your DVD is vista SP1 and Vista SP2 installed you will not be able to perform an inplace upgrade.

  • want to download win vista business 64 bit and we my 32-bit key, where could I find

    switch from 32-bit to 64-bit for windows vista business oem

    The product key on the label of COA affixed to your computer (in the battery on some laptops) is the same for 32-bit and 64-bit.  However, there is no place to download a Vista Business .iso file.  You can contact the manufacturer of your computer for help, but OEMS are not required to provide copies of 32-bit and 64-bit of their recovery software.  Once a customer chooses one or the other platform is usually all that he has the right to.  Check the manufacturer's Web site to see if the recovery software can be ordered both ways.  If this isn't the case, you may be stuck.

  • The upgrade of Vista Business 64 bit on a workstation used

    I recently bought a Dell Precision T5400 used with Windows Vista professional. I'm very happy with it, but I intend on a program 64 bit running on the workstation. What are my upgrade options?

    Anyway you have to clean install.

    Your options are Windows Vista 64 bit, Windows 7 64-bit or 64-bit Windows 8.

    You can use a Digital River 64-bit with Service Pack 1 setup files to a bootable media and pure install 64-bit Windows Vista Business.

    I recommend Windows 7 Professional with Service Pack 1 64-bit, but you have to pay for a license (its probably the most expensive option).

    You can also switch to Windows 8 Professional upgrade license is cheaper than that of Windows 7, but in my opinion, a lower quality product.

    I would recommend either tried and decide what you like the most and if you think that its worth the upgrade.

    Follow the instructions in install windows own A: http://philipyip.wordpress.com/dell-community-forums/

    I suggest running step 2 and 3 to A Clean installation of Windows Vista before experimenting. The guide tells you how to obtain trial versions of Windows 7 and 8 so you can evaluate them. With Vista 64 bit, you have the product key and must be able to activate using activation activation recovery backup program or phone to Microsoft.
