• Important file deleted my Windows vista operating system using my anti virus!

  I removed 'c:\programdata\microsoft\search\data\applications\windows\mss03e68.log' using my anti virus. Now, I think it was a bad idea. Anti virus says it was a hidden folder and acted as a rootkit! So I took it without knowing what it was! This file is important? What is this for? BTW windows vista home edition OS. Any help is appreciated!

  Tanx.

  Hello

  If you are worried about it being a system file, try this:

  Run the sfc/scannow command.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

     The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

• Problems with sound after you install the operating system

  I have a compaq presario that originally vista os, the system crashed and I could get the recovery work so I installed windows xp and now I'm having problems with the sound. What should I do? I tried to locate the drivers requarding info. I keep getting error messages indicating that I have no audio device. Is it possible to go back to vista? I don't have an instillation cd or recovery for vista cd. Any help would be great.

  Hello

  Go to the link drivers HP > search your computer number model > XP OS > download and install the audio drivers.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  If no audio driver XP is available, HP provides them.

  Through the installation of XP, you have destroyed the provided HP recovery Partition Vista to reinstall Vista:

  Solve a common problem of recovery with the HP Compaq computers.
  If the original operating system is changed to a non - Vista OS, the Recovery Manager cannot be started from either the desktop or by pressing f11 at startup. You can use the recovery disk to restore the computer to the original state of Vista. If you are using a non - Vista OS, you can use a third-party partition management program to recover hard disk space.
   
  Contact HP and ask them to send you a set of Vista recovery disks.
  Normally, they do this for a small fee.
  http://h20566.www2.HP.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/help/contactHP/home/?AC.admitted=1340446095470.876444892.199480143
   

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• How to configure Adobe Reader to the default program to read PDF files after you install Adobe Acrobat?

  How to configure Adobe Reader to the default program to read PDF files after you install Adobe Acrobat? I have a few other programs that need to use Adobe Reader showing 'photo' that are PDF files, and after the installation of Acrobat, it is Acrobat that opens automatically, with a message whenever Acrobat cannot be used for this and will be closed, and then the Player opens. I don't like having to see this message every time... Thank you! :-)

  Hi anne-grethea26777033,.

  You can do CD player as your default application by browsing in Edition > Preferences > under categories, select the "Général" and at the bottom of the window, you must select an option which reads "set as default PDF Manager" under the label of startup application and click OK.

  

  Let us know if that helps.

• 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

• 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.

  It depends only on the BONE of the application server.

  If your OS development and OS is different, you have to compile the fmb in the server again.

• Install the operating system after replacing the corrupted hard drive Asus q500a

  The hard drive on my Asus Q500a is bad (he had checked the repairman). They told me that I could replace it (it will just keep failing until at last it dies just) but I have to re - install the operating system. The laptop comes with Windows 7 and I upgraded to 8 when it came out (I think). I don't have a recovery disk.

  How can I replace the corrupted hard drive and re-install the operating system?

  If I need to buy Windows 8, where can I find?

  Would it not easier that I left the repair shop handle it?
