    If you had not reinstalled Vista, we helped you recover the product key of Vista for running old, Vista activated using specific programs.

    But, as you have wiped the hard and reinstall Vista, we will not help you recover the product key.

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    Using recovery disks is normally not need to insert a product key.

  • I am trying to reinstall vista on another laptop and when I get to the last step (end Installation...) it stops, about 70% of the way through. Now what? I tried to repeat the process about 6 times now!

    I am trying to reinstall vista on another laptop and when I get to the last step (end Installation...) it stops, about 70% of the way through.  Now what? I tried to repeat the process about 6 times now!

    Sorry for the confusion.  I must be useless to English.

    Forget the two laptops.
    I have a problem with a laptop that I tell you all (the Inspiron 1720).
    The disc that I use is labeled as a Windows Vista reinstall disk and provided with the computer when I bought it.  I'm not trying to use it on another computer.

    Reference Dell it is a problem with a process of recovery of Windows and, therefore, a problem of Microsoft.

    See you soon

    Problems with the Dell restore process, contact Dell.
    Dell wrote their recovery process and provided you with this DVD, NOT Microsoft...

    It is their software.

    Ask them for a different recovery DVDs.

    You say that the hard drive has failed.

    He could have more than just tough that failed.
    You can have other hardware issues.

    Hardware issues are beyond the scope of these Forums.

    Good luck with Dell.

    Hello

    To download please visit:-applications download Creative Suite 6

    It is advisable to disable the software on a computer on which it will be is most used, especially before giving away or selling the computer or reformat the hard disk. Please see this link: How to disable the software.  This frees an activation if you have the option to install the software on another computer at any time.

    If you do not have access to your old computer because you have replaced a hard drive, upgraded your operating system to format your computer before you deactivate your software or your computer is dead, you can ask Adobe Support to help you disable from a machine, you cannot access. Have your serial number or Adobe ID ready, then contact us.

    To load the software on another computer, download and install it as you did on the first computer. Then enter your serial number to activate it.

    Hope this helps!

    At some point in the past (I don't know the exact date) Adobe "merged" the original update manager in cloud Update Manager, which means that you no longer use your original update manager

    Hello

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    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 once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

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

    "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

  • Trying to reinstall XP but get the message that I can't like exisiting version is newer.

    I am trying to reinstall XP (from CD) on my Dell Dimension 3000, but I get a message that the current version is newer and I need to boot with the CD. However, I can't figure out how to do this, because when I turn on the PC it starts automatically (apparently, by ignoring the CD in the CD drive). I think I need to access BIOS to load the PC to boot from the CD, but being a novice I don't know how to do this, or what it takes when I get to it. Help someone?

    When you turn on the computer watching the monitor very carefully, you will see a brief message asking you to press a specific key to change the BIOS settings.
