• Not authentic "Windows" problem

  Story: My Dell Inspiron laptop has been running Windows Vista when initially purchased in 2009.   Dell has provided a free upgrade to Windows 7, and this upgrade went well several years ago.  Thus, the machine has been works well on Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 for awhile.
  Don't know if this is important: a couple of months, I replaced the hard drive.   I did a backup/restore image for the operating system on the new drive.   I don't think that I was invited to return keys validation of Windows at this time here.   I had no problem and the machine worked well after the replacement of the hard disk.
  Now, all of a sudden I get a pop up window that says "this computer is not running genuine Windows.
  However, my Windows is genuine!
  I tried to solve the problem by installing the WindowsActivationUpdate.exe, but will not install.   I get the error message "update installation failed.   Information about the error - 0xC8000247
  I tried to get the Windows product key (from the sticker on the bottom of the laptop) via Control Panel/system/change the product key but it says invalid key!
  Something is clogged to the top, but I don't know what.
  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Thank you for your response.    I tried several related suggestions and more did not help.   That seems to have solved my problem of Windows Update is reinstalling the technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver as suggested by george1009 in your third link above.

  As for my Activation of Windows problem, I typed in the wrong product key.  I entered the key on the sticker on the computer, but it is valid only for Windows Vista (original OS), but not for Windows 7 (current operating system).  I found that my Windows 7 upgrade disk envelope and who had the key valid on it.
  Thanks again for your help.

• I received a call from < removed > telling me that they would help my dose of my windows problems. Is it a scam?

  I received a call from the saying that they would help my dose of my windows problems. Is it a scam?

  Hello

  They are cold, you try to pick up the 'business' calling

  It's a scam.

  Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

  You are the only person who knows if you gave them remote access.

  If you gave them remote access and you do Internet banking, contact your bank, to explain, and change passwords.

  If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

  And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.

  There is an article in the link I'm you provide at the end of this one

  Read this Information from Microsoft:

  "Avoid scams to phone for tech support.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

  Don't be fooled of unsolicited calls. Don't provide personal information.

  Here are some of the organizations that cyber criminals claim to come:

• Missing programs, perhaps a Windows problem

  I was working on my computer very well, I've been on the internet for hours without problem (no antivirus warning and I wasn't downloading anything, only normal pages), and I have existing, up-to-date antivirus.

  Well, the problem is that most of my installed programs have just "party" and some standard Windows programs are gone too. Programs, I had on my system for years and have used several times without problem simply disappeared as well as programs such as calculator and paint. Well, they are the programs that I realized that I have lost so far. To give you an idea, go to start, programs, and usually 1 columns 3/4 programs are displayed, it is now maybe 2/3 of a column. When you go into program files, there is nothing in the missing programs, it seems that they have been uninstalled.

  I have done a complete analysis of the system through Norton Antivirus and came up with nothing. I restarted and then a box come to say a word about "Windows is unable to complete the program installation..." something in this direction, and nothing has come on my desktop except for the desktop, My Documents and trash. I did a restore of the system at the point of older, two weeks ago, and it came up saying: "we cannot complete the system restore, no change has been made."  Arghh!

  I'm computer literate and worked a bit in the it helpdesk and I have absolutely no idea. I think since this is a Windows problem that we may have to clean this completely and started from scratch with new windows. I you gave as the screenshots I can, to maybe give you an idea of what is happening. Note on the last note of screenshot that there are a few things has highlighted. I did not do that, then maybe it's the question? This is the "InstallShield Installation information", "Uninstall information", and "windows update". Also, I am happy to install Real VNC if that helps diagnose the problem. Can you please guide me the case, before you go to all this effort?

  Thanks in advance.

  iPod touch is recognized as a problem digital camera.the says it's a windows problem...

  Hi cuteshey,

  Welcome on the site of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.

   

  Solution 1: Update the drivers

   

  (1) the Device Manager open, either by right clicking on computer and then click on manage, and finally on Device Manager, or by typing devmgmt.msc in the box then find (or run) on the bottom of the start menu and press ENTER.

  (2) find the ipod, he (should) be listed under digital cameras, right click it and choose "update driver software".

  (3) select "Browse my computer for driver software".

  (4) for the location (you must have already installed itunes) use C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers (replace C: for what is the letter of your system drive), and then click Next, windows will find the driver here and continue to update the driver
  (5) after the update is complete, click Finish to close the dialog box, then disconnect the ipod and plug it in again.

  Solution 2: This seems to be a known issue with the iPhone and iPod touch from Apple, I would suggest also allows you to check the link that contains the iPhone and iPod touch: Disabling digital camera notification in Windows Vista

  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1500.

  Juice to ensure that it is not not a Windows problem check the Apple Support Article: iPhone and iPod touch: disable the notification of digital camera on Mac OS X

  Announcement: Camera, video and photos: answers to frequently asked Questions

  Solution 3: If the issue is not resolved, it is recommended to contact Apple for iPod Touch http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch to have the best support or you can reach the Dell Forums: http://discussions.apple.com and check for extra support and check if they have new updates on this issue and if they can help fix the same.

• Windows Installer + VSS + Windows problems in Windows 7 SP1 Activation

  I used this Windows 7 machine for 5 years now and has recently encountered several problems, which probably are closely linked:

  1. Windows installation problem
  Can't update programs, although new install if they do need Windows Installer to do. Most but not all Windows not updates install.

  2. the problem of volume shadow copy Service

  Failed to create system restore points. With VSS errors appear when I try to do. No previous restore point is available.

  3. Activation of Windows problem
  A pop up keeps appearing every 1 or 2 hours, saying that my computer is not running genuine Windows. Obviously nonsense since this PC was bought during the original Service Pack 1 of Windows 7 and I've never had a problem before.

  I searched a lot online to solve all these problems. I tried hundreds of possible solutions, but nothing has worked. I think that it is all caused by the same thing, but I am unable to find it.

  Ready to provide more information. Thanks in advance.

  (PS: my camera has a pre installed Windows 7 so I own not a Windows DVD, don't want to reinstall the OS, prefer to try to find the cause of the mess)

  Do you have same problems if you create a new user account?

  What Antivirus utility you installed?

  Have you installed a new hardware or software or both since you started these problems?

  Could you describe some of the thing things you've tried?

  Start by checking your hard disk for errors:

  Click Start

  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD

  Click on "Run as Administrator"

  At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

  then

  Click Start
  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
  Click on "Run as Administrator"
  At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

  This will check for any breach of integrity

  Restart your system

  You can also try to perform a repair upgrade to see if it works. You need to download a copy of the edition of so that your system is under license:

  Download Windows 10, 8, 7 ISOs

  Impressive work, do the update of the bios. Kudos to you for this. It is a privilege to work with tech-savvy and technically competent customers like you and we greatly appreciate your business with HP. You have been great to work with.

  Please check in F2 diagnostics if the scrollbar works correctly. If Yes, then you can update the chipset drivers and http://hp.com/drivers touchpad drivers you can also consult with a mouse external further isolate the issue.

  You can also run diagnostics on the touchpad from this link by going to the UEFI F2 diagnostics: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03467259 please run the complete components. If any component fails, please note the failure code. This is done to determine if the problem is hardware or software partners.

  If it passes and scrolling works very well, please perform these updates. If you are still having the same problem on page F2 UEFI (screen) then you could roll back bios after performing a hard reset. Link for the hard reset: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01684768

• CQ60 drops Windows 7 wireless

  I have a CQ60. Since the day where I bought it with vista on it, I had problems with wireless. He drops the wireless randomly. It is not a hardware problem, I installed XP Pro above and it works flawlessly for months. I put Windows 7 32-bit on it and I have the problem again. All my Dell laptops with windows 7 work very well. So I know that is not a router problem. Raise us the problem at work, I discovered other people have the same problem with HP and Compaq. So this must be common. Does anyone know the fix?

• I had to reinstall Windows - problems accessing the profile of old or existing to show all emails, I had

  I had to reinstall windows. I have several drives in my computer and I copied the entire C: drive to another drive in the PC. I thought when I reinstalled Thunderbird, I could just point to profile located on the other drive... email accounts but it doesn't work.

  I had multiple accounts configured in Thunderbird - accounts about 6, but just one profile. I had several records created for organizing email locally. So, I guess that he should be a both local and roaming profile with the same name? I checked my mail server web interface and there are currently approximately 105 emails on this subject. I know there are at least 500 total emails into the inboxes of Thunderbird. I try to restore those old e-mails, as well as local folders - but am not having any luck.

  Anyway, with all the attempts that I did to get all the emails of my return, I think that Thunderbird has created new folders and is doing really complicated now. I don't know how to sort this out. I don't know the name of the profile that I have used before, and when I search my computer on the name of the profile, it is 22 000 + items. I'm still not able to get them all restored in Thunderbird.

  Another strange thing is: in the search results for the name of the profile, the items are displayed in the results, and it has an icon Thunderbird next to them and says it's a Document of Thunderbird... but when I double-click on one of them, it will not open in Thunderbird. Nothing happens when I double-click on them. Could this be a problem/conflict version of Thunderbird? I thought my old Thunderbird was updated.

  I don't know where to start to give you a hint how to help. I'm sorry.

  Any ideas?

• Update iTunes 10 Windows problem and Solution

  I have a solution that worked for me, when Apple's CEO did not all trying to update iTunes 10 Windows.  I do not claim that their solution was bad, just that it has not resolved the problem for me, but lead me to the solution that did.

  The problem I had was that during the update, I would like to get the package of Windows error message that wouldn't let him proceed in process.  "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your supplier of staff or the package of support ".

  THE SOLUTION: click on the Windows icon and go to settings > system > applications and features.  Click on Apple software update > change > change > repair

  Once the repair has been completed, I was able to install iTunes without any problems.

  How I found this solution: I tried the recommendation to Apple for this message exact error uninstall and reinstall iTunes, who had the same error message.  The next step was to uninstall QuickTime and iTunes, then the Apple Software Update.  At this point, the Apple software update wouldn't uninstall and generated the same error of Windows package as described above.  I fixed Apple Software Update and rather than proceed with the rest of the facilities, I advanced and installed iTunes.  He worked like a champ and he saved me a bunch of times.

  Thanks Airshipguy. It really worked.

  I have not tried all the recommendations of Apple support, being out of pocket for the time and also the uncertainty of losing the settings. Before you read this post, I tried to repair only iTunes. After reading the post above, I fixed all facilities Apple in a sequence such that the last of them was that of "Apple Software Update". I made this sequence intuitively and have no scientific reason.

  For those who need to be more aware of 10 Windows, right click the windows button, select "Programs and features" and then search for Apple. As indicated in the post above, it's the "Apple Software Update" that did the trick.

  My response was to reassure people that it works. Often, a single post does not give that confidence to give it a go!
