• I had problems to install Vista SP1 on different computers 2 Scared of Vista SP1.

  I had problems installing Vista SP1 on 2 different computers and have had to reinstall OS and at the same time, after the reinstallation of Vista, Windows update has updated all the updates up to SP1 and I'm afraid to click on it.  I just finished rebuilding my laptop and all important updates and stopped at SP1.  I ran the System Readiness tool update on my desktop and am really GUN-SHY click on SP1.  Is there something else I can look for or take into account before clicking GO?  I was really upset when the laptop was working fine without it and against my instinct clicked on install when Windows update finally offered it.  I was surprised, that he had not come forward.  I have HP Pavilion, AVG and it is on both machines.   On the desktop I had updated SP1 when it first came out, and something zapped my video card and had to install a video card to see what was going on.  Finally I had to buy another HP motherboard.  It was not cheap.  I'm really scared to click on install. And I would like to put into practice what I preach to end-users, but experience twice shot dark me and path of restoration.  Thank you.

  I'm back - I'M MY technician.  I support experience dating back to the beginning of the 1990s.  I tried your advice and humiliated.  What I have to lose - I said. If this does not work, I'll reformat and start over.   here goes.

  I reformatted, reinstalled OEM in new condition.  Bypassed the Code Purple HP tattoos on their generation, where we replaced the MB that I had.
  Uninstalled Norton, installed the Norton remover.
  Installed MS Security essentials.   Yet once, I said why not.  try it.
  Installed all the updates that Microsoft had to offer.   Have to him. I said.
  It took almost two days.
  System has all updates included SP1 and SP and anything withdrew automatic update of Ms.
  Ok.
  browser, flash, drivers, software for personal use
  System is being run-
  Scanned primary and any secondary t.o.d. after reconnecting them - disconnected for the reformat.

  There are other questions which seem to me with ISP but I meet with them, or open a new question.  For now, Vista SP1 and 2 are in.

  Oh and if anyone has a HP, which gets a code purple error after entering the process of restoration - Shift and F10 while the purple error code is on the screen and rename files from HP in the form of command prompt to convey this purple code and continue with the installation.  I had to find this info on the site of HP after the first reformat.

  and another thing.  I had to take my firewall router a notch to allow download of the Norton removal tool.  Why they still use FTP for one simple download is beyond me.  -

  Nice day

• Boot problems after installing Vista SP2 (KB948465)

  I installed SP2 via update.  During the update process there was a power failure.  After that (I don't remember if it's immediately after, or if a few days elapsed) I had problems with the startup.  Initially, seemed the Startup Repair to fix the problem, but not permanently, and the Startup Repair had to be used repeatedly just to start.

  After a few times of what is happening, Startup Repair did not turn, and the PC wouldn't start.  After about 5 attempts using the decision-making power, sometimes choose the Startup Repair, sometimes choose to load windows normally, he did start.
  I immediately did a system restore to return my PC before SP2 was installed.

  After the restoration of versions prior to SP2, Windows Update showed that the SP2 update failed.  It was on 9 November.  As I need my computer, I didn't reinstall SP2 until I had finished this work.

  As I thought that the problem is probably caused by the power outage, on 10 September, I reinstalled SP2.  Windows Update show no SP2 as an available update, then I downloaded and installed the standalone update.

  Between the 10th and today, 14, Windows Update has installed more than updated.

  Today, I was unable to start for the first time since the reinstall SP2 and Startup Repair has allowed me to open a session.
  I tried to uninstall SP2 via update.  The first part of it seemed to work, but when it came to reboot, the PC stopped at the end power to the bottom of the procedure.  I used the power switch to turn the PC back on.  After startup, the PC told me that deletion failed.

  Then I tried the system restore.  Unfortunately, the first available restore point was post - SP2 installation.  I restored it for the point that is as close as I could.  I tried to uninstall SP2 again through Windows Update.  This time, I receive a generic error message immediately (less than a second) - it does not attempt to go through the configuration - restart the procedure.

  I haven't restarted my PC since then.  Most updates have been downloaded automatically, and the PC tells me that a restart is required.  I'm a little worried that I will end up with a completely insensitive PC.

  I use an Acer Aspire X 3200 with Vista home premium pre-installed.  I don't have a Vista disc.

• Internet problems after installing vista SP2

  I'm running IE8 and yesterday I installed Vista Service Pack 2.  After the installation, I got an internet connection, but could not access all pages including my home page.  The pages would hang and the little blue circle would go round and round and nothing happened.  I also have Firefox downloaded on my computer, and still the same thing happens again.

  I checked my system tools in the lower right of the desktop and my icon for connectivity internet local and internet had a red cross on it that has not changed.  I restarted my computer several times and nothing has changed.  I used the prompt commands and ping google (my homepage) and found within seconds, so the connection was there but not able to access all pages.

  I am running Vista Home Premium as my 32-bit operating system.

  To cure the problem so far, I did system restore and completely got rid of the installation.  As soon as I did, my internet was totally fine with IE8 and Firefox.

  Any suggestions, I won't install SP2 again until I know what has caused the problem of the internet, and he was healed.

  Hi Smokeycat,
   
  Thank you for writing to Microsoft Windows Vista Answers.
   
  Since you have already restored the computer and the internet works fine, try to reinstall the stand-alone version of Service pack 2. Later, try to connect to the Internet.
   
  You have security software installed on the computer? If so, try disabling the security software and install the stand-alone version of service pack 2.
   
  Try to install the stand-alone package for Windows Vista Service pack 2, access the link below and download the file to the desktop. Later, run the installation of Service pack 2 from the office.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=a4dd31d5-F907-4406-9012-a5c3199ea2b3&displaylang=en
   
  If the problem persists after you have installed the stand alone package, reply came back with the details:

  1. try to boot into safe mode with network after installation of Service pack 2 and try to access Internet
  2. in normal mode, try to right click on the network icon in the taskbar and click on diagnose and repair, if it gives any error make a note of it and we gives the error.
  3 - is wireless to a wired connection?
  4. do you have any router installed?
   
  I hope this helps.
   
  Kind regards

  Hi all

  I have a laptop under Windows Vista Home Premium. I can't connect to the Internet using my right to Samba75 USB GPRS/EDGE modem, once I installed Vista Service Pack 1.

  Any idea on how to solve this problem? Because of some network security options has been added by SP1 of Vista who refused to connect me with my modem?

  Kind regards.

  Hi Ken,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I found that the services required to support the diap network are some corrupted how (in other words, when you enter Services, you can start/stop/restart the service. all options is disabled). I'm not looking for is the first cause, but I think so. FYI, I already turned off all firewalls including Windows Firewall.

  I will fix this by reinstalling a new copy of Vista. Tired of the trousbleshooting.

• Satellite A210: taken micro does not work after installing Vista SP1

  So cannot use Skype etc.

  Any help appreceated

  Bill

  Train from my own experience the SP1 is not fully compatible with the various drivers.
  In case you looks that the audio driver does not work with SP1.

  Don t know what sound card you have (maybe Realtek?), but a sound card driver update would be desirable.
  If it doesn t help you will need to wait until it comes out an update of the audio driver

• Sound problems after installing Vista on Satellite A100

  Hello

  I have something new, something I've never seen and I do not much [as appropriate] of you.

  Today, I installed Windows Vista Beta 2 on my laptop Satellite A100-192. As it is Vista compatible now [I added some memory] I think it's the right time to see the new operating system [that is great, he will rule the world for sure].

  But back to the topic.
  After the installation of Windows Vista, which has detected almost all of the software in my pc and have fun on this topic / and there are a lot of things an old fart like me, can have fun with / I decided it's time to get back to work.
  So I restarted my toshiba for win xp, started working and has decided that music will surely improve my / concentration i'm from Poland and as many of you know, my team lost the first game of the 2006 World Cup. so they will not pass the group stage of WC2K6--real cause my humor today. After turning on my foobar, I realized that I don't hear nothing/i do not drink, so he can't really be the cause. I've set all volume settings, all the settings of the sound and nothing! I tried headphone jack, but it does not work too. I tried reinstalling the drivers, reboot the system several times and... nothing.
  I went back to Vista and... sound works like a charm.

  Bromine to Vista my sound on XP...

  Anyone has any bright ideas, how this could have happened and how to solv it / accept to remove vista from windows...?

  I would be greatfull for some advice...

  Best regards

  Therefore, you will not be able to find common modules and others on the download site Tosh.

  The needs of Vista and wastes many resources of the laptop! File, the picture transparency and the Aero feature needs min on 256 MB graphic card, fast CPU and min 1024 MB of memory.
  Here are the requirements material min!

  But you should also check if the transparency of Vista (Eye Candy, magnifying glass effect) has been activated!
  To enable or disable this effect do this:

  1. right click on an empty area of the desktop
  2. Select Customize from the context menu
  3. click on window color and appearance Option
  4. check if you want to enable transparency or not.

• Problems with sound after installing Vista Ultimate SP1 on HP Pavilion Dv4

  I lost sound after installing Vista SP1 Ultimate on my HP Pavilion Dv4... everything was fine before. Help, please.

  Go to the HP support website and search for Windows Vista drivers for your specific model number. Also look for recent updates, even if your PC comes with Windows Vista preinstalled.
  http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/support.html

  If there are Vista drivers then download to a folder on your hard drive and install all of them, starting with the installation card mother/chipset drivers, then the SATA, LAN, Audio, drivers and other device drivers.

• Problems after installing KB978338 on Windows Vista SP2

  I met a problem after installing KB978338. The update installs without error or problem, but the system is extremely inadmissible after the reboot. The "\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop is not accessible" error, and the system is practically unusable. Normally opens the Task Manager and system seems inactive, but you try to start a new application from the Task Manager gave an error "hose is not valid.

  System is Vista Home Premium SP2 installed without any obvious problems before the update. Start the system restore and go back to immediately before the update of the results in the system back to normal functionality and responsiveness.

  I've never seen or either of these mistakes before and my research has not yet been able to find something similar, so I am at a loss to start this kind of problem with an update of troubleshooting.

  Please tell us how can I still troubleshoot or solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance.

  So I "hid" the update and you call this one closed without resolution.

  While the overall rating of gravity for KB978338 is moderate (critical vs), it of still a security update and must be installed.
