It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

• After you install service pack 2 for windows vista

  After installing service pack 2 for windows vista on my HP laptop, I started having a few problems. First off the computer would not go beyond the Welcome screen because he showed that an update was the installation (step 1 of 3:0 % etc.) and the computer reboots before finish. It kept the case whenever I started upward, even on safe mode. I tried to restore, but it would never be completed and nothing else would work. Now I can't go beyond the microsoft loading screen because it shows a black flat screen with no cursor. I can't enter safe mode. Help, please. Safe mode only shows the start screen but won't start so I can't access the control panel and tried to boot to the last known successful startup but it failed.

• error c00000021A on my windows XP Professional after you install spyware and computer back reset

  I reinstalled windows XP Professional ON MY DELL gx270s, I formatted the hard disk, installed the drivers from dell four with him, but after I installed my avast spyware on it and the computer comes back from.  I get the code on a blue screen "COOOO21A ERROR". Could you help me with this

  I would say that Avast has quarantined (effectively deleted) some system files important XP (he is known for this).

  I have a few dozen c000021a errors in my notes, you must provide the exact error message that you see.  Note that these are zeros, not OHS.  I have a curious why would you only provide part of the message see you and wait to help us?

  If yous system isn't bootm, the response from the Microsoft support engineer doesn't help.  Even if your system does not start, it would be still useless.  It is however the first article of KB Microsoft coming in a Bing search engine, but that's not good.  Don't waste your time on these responses.

  Here is an example, and we need something like that on your part:

  STOP: c000021a {fatal system error}
  The Windows logon process ended unexpectedly with the status of 0xc0000034 (0 x 0000000 0000000 x 0).
  The system has been shut down.

  Then, you will need to answer these questions to the best you can:

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

• Unable to access Windows XP after you download Service Pack 3, asking login that wasn't Setup previously

  I downloaded the Service Pack 3 for Windows XP Home Edition and now whenever I go on the computer I am prompted with a screen Windows Log In with owner under the user name and the screen is demanding a password.

  I have never set up a password and the other never needed before but now cannot access the windows that I can not connect.
  Any help?

  Hello Stephen,

  Try to login as an administrator and update the password for your limited account or try to start your system in safe mode and see if you can log in as an administrator.

  If you are on the home screen, you press CTRL + ATL + DEL (combination of three keys) twice to access the login prompt. Also confirm if you can change your username and login from there.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows Vista stuck at 67% in stage 3 to restart after standalone install service pack 1

  I installed the stand-alone version of service pack for Vista on an AMD System powered with Asus motherboard running Windows Vista 32 bit home edition Basic.  The service worked well and seemed well until you restart. It has reached stage 3 and stopped at 67% and no response. I have run the system for 12 hours before running a forced reboot. I have restarted from the Vista DVD and have tried system restore and automatic repair. All have brought me back to the same place. I also tried to boot into safe mode with the same result. I am able to read the disc from a command prompt, and made a chkdk as well.

• CREATIX card TV no longer works for Windows Media Center after you install Vista Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional

  I recently updated my computer Windows Vista Edition Medion Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional. While my computer was running Vista, I could use the tuner TV SAA7131 Creatix card in my computer to watch digital TV British, that is to say Freeview. Before my upgrade to Windows 7, I checked all my drivers would be compatible, and the Advisory program told me that they would be sufficient. However, when I tried to setup of the library to receive a TV signal, the implementation will not progress beyond the screen "Considering television signals" Percentage of completion bar gets to about 90% and then does not move, or entirely 100%, but the screen does not change, and if I try to return to the main menu screen, Windows Media Center crashes with the 'circle of rotation of loading"and does not change.

  I reinstalled Cyberlink Home Cinema after realization of the Medion TV improve extra that comes with it, but that didn't seem to help. The same problem persists.

  I have still the disk with the drivers on, but I'm not sure how to reinstall the drivers using the disk, because the record for drivers TV Tuner does she not an executable file, just a series of system files, application extensions and the DAT files.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  You must find the CTX driver version in the code of your tv card provider (poster Device Manager it under hardware ID in the Details tab) in the list of suppliers PDF in the FAQ section of the site Creatix. Then, you can download the right CTX driver from the support section. Is there a Windows 7 driver for my SAA7131 card.
