• Question of VAMT/Activation: Frequently reinstall Windows from Scratch - failing HDD and is about to replace it.

  Hello

  My HARD current (500 GB SATA 3 HDD Toshiba) drive is defect and displaying a warning. I bought a new WD 750 GB HDD to replace by ensuring that it is compatible with SATA 3.

  Problem: Reinstall Windows 7 Professional and Office 2010 Professional Plus activation of both of them.

  Activation/products affected: They are "Retail" (MAK) versions, but University so the activation limit is between 2 and 5. (Yes, they are installed on a single computer, are genuine and conform...).

  Background: I'm a college student, HE takes classes and we need to install a lot of software intensive resources. I usually reinstall Windows every 4-6 months to "Start fresh" I noticed increased performance and install only necessary software. It's up to the activations MAK is expected.

  Aim: I would like to use the tool, VAMT 2.0 (or ideally 3.0 - but I have no knowledge of SQL). Also, I do not have a server, just 2 or 3 Mobile Standard (8.1 of Windows, Windows XP Home Edition and this Windows 7 PC).

  I have already watched the video below on VAMT 2.0 before posting:

  http://www.bing.com/videos/watch/video/using-VAMT-2-0/10tkzhtlq

  Can I use activation by proxy in this case to "preserve the Activations using VAMT to store Installation and Confirmation IDS to avoid having activation problems common? If Yes, can someone please help me?

  I tried to put the Windows WMI firewall rules allow for the Public, home and work on both PC but could not activate during a previous attempt a few months ago.

  Any help is appreciated more than. I am all my backup files and need to get this done before the resumption of classes at the college level (in 3 days).

  Thank you in advance and sorry for the long post!

  (I posted in the TechNet forums and I apologize if it's wrong to do it, it's just a relatively urgent matter - normally, I wanted to just wait a few days for a response).

  Your question would be better displayed in the forum according to then:

• Re: Satellite Pro A300 - recovery disk will reinstall Windows OS on the new HARD drive

  Hard drive of my Satellite Pro A300 failed. It has now been replaced. I ordered a recovery disk.
  This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?

  Also, I get this message "BOOTMGR MISSING". The recovery disc will fix this problem too?
  Thanks in advance!

  > I ordered a recovery disk. This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?
  Yes. Without a doubt.

  New HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?
  If so avoid any problem.

  Moreover, A300 works perfectly and much better with Win7 32 bit.

• Can I format HARD drive and reinstall Windows 7 on the Qosmio F60 without CD

  I think my hard drive is faulty on my F60 Quosmio so I want to reformat the hard drive to see if that will fix it. But I don't have the original packaging and the information with me at the moment so I don't know if it came with a windows 7 CD or not. Whatever it is, I don't have the CD.

  I found on the net that most manufacturer who deliver without CD include a "recovery partition" or "factory image partition" which you can access during startup. Anyone know if the F60 Quosmio comes with a CD or if she has this recovery partition or partition image factory? Or do you know if there is a way I can check if my computer is it?

  If you have more information about the formatting of the hard drive and reinstall windows 7 without the CD please let me know.

  Thank you.

  The laptop came with a Windows disc, because there is a Toshiba recovery disc Creator called tool which create the recovery disk.

  The recovery partition was available and it allows you to recover the laptop without the use of the recovery disk, but it does not work if the HARD drive has failed.

  Here's a nice HowTo on HARD drive recovery

  -You must install Windows operating system using a disc of Microsoft

• Windows Update: failed. __Code 643 windows Update encountered an unknown error. _ * AND * __I cannot repair Windows 7 with the disc either. My guess is: these issues are related...? __

  I have THREE questions which PEUVENT all be linked togther... What do you think?

  [I am slot as Windows 7 Ultimate (free upgrade to Dell PC w/purchase) on a Dell 64 bit PC XPS435]
  I've upgraded from Vista about 3 weeks ago.

  #1 - Two weeks ago I had a problem with the installation of Nero/LiquidTV-TiVo to my PC... (this is also when the problem started).
  To get the "Nero" thing figured out, I took the advice of someone on the Forum/Blog of Nero. The person has provided a lenghty explanation how to uninstall LiquidTV completely by removing the registry files... I don't really know what I'm doing in the registry, but everything that I helped my problem of Nero, but I couldn't tell you WHAT I deleted OR if I have deleted any bad subfolders or whatnot!... the next time I started my PC is when the NEW NUMBER is right.

  #2 - On my next BOOT, Windows Update has found an IMPORTANT update:

  A security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 for x 64 systems (KB954430)

  .. .and it fails every time, it tries to install saying this:

  Windows Update - failed

  Code 643 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

  "Get help with this error" provides little or no help... but it says this:
   "WindowsUpdate_00000643" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"
  
  All the research I did, the problem seems to be with Microsoft .NET Framework... .and all the solutions I found talking about it, "UNINSTALL all THE .NET FRAMEWORK & REINSTALL" ... I tried and there is no .NET Frameworks listed in Add/Remove, and when I press on ' VIEW INSTALLED UPDATES'... " on my PC it says, "no updates are installed on this computer"... what the _____?

  #3 - Today, I thought I would just pop the WINDOWS 7 installation disc and do a repair/upgrade... It will not be upgraded.
  He cycles most of the way through, then he Has STOPPED and says this:

  The following problems prevent upgrade Windows. Cancel the upgrade, perform each task, (it lists only a SINGLE task), and then restart the upgrade to continue.

  • Windows needs to be restarted if necessary to system files can be changed before you continue.

    Does not help restart. He tried 3 times and he ends up doing the same thing.
    Is it possible I deleted something out of the register so far here and which is cause of all this?
    If so, is it possible to fix WITHOUT doing a new install of Windows 7?
    OR... anything can be a problem... Please HELP!

    (And please note: I am a first year student college with specialization in computer science... but I just started last semester, so I don't know what I should... yet. - though, I SHOULD have known better than to mess with the registry!) My bad).

    Thanks a lot for your time in advance, and I look forward to hear from you!  VikeMike4
    

  Erwan,
  You must read this entire thread and the State, if you have tried the steps listed here or that you tried to fix the problem.  Take a look at this article, because it has a solution for 643 errors: KB971187

• Windows update fails and shows code error 80070490

  Hello, I have Windows Vista Home Premium, 32-bit operating system and installed Service Pack 2.

  I set Windows to update automatically, but I noticed today that this wasn't working properly, so I clicked on "check for updates" and she came back with the following message:
  "Windows could not search for new updates, error found: Code 80070490 Windows update encountered an unknown error.

  Under the error message, it lists that the ' most recent Check for Updates "was on 11/25/2009 and"updates have been installed"on 11/25/2009.
  But when I checked "View update history" to see updates did not, all the updates that are listed have actually managed, no updates have been identified as having failed. The last update was actually - definition update for Windows Defender on 12/29/2009 - and the previous update - update for the Microsoft XML Core Service Pack 2 (KB973688) 25 / 11 / 2009.

  I had this same problem earlier this year with the code 80070490 error come when I tried to update Windows and after trying all the solutions suggest online (including the assisted Microsoft Online Support), I had to contact the Support of Tecnical Microsoft on the phone and he needed someone to help me create a completely new Windows which meant that I lost everything in my old windows.

  I don't want to go through this again, can anyone help?

  I'll give you three options then I'm outta here for the new year.

  1.

  Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

  2 uninstall SP2, and then recover (AKA repair installation) by http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958044.

  3. backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows.

  HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista#section_3

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a network otherwise and before using a USB key that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

  5 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
       http://www.Microsoft.com/protect/computer/advanced/XPPC.mspx

  NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the deletion appropriate before installing any Windows Service Packs or IE updates and before installing your new anti-virus application.

• Windows update fails with error code 57 (KB951847)

  Windows update fails when it encounters an unknown error while trying to install the following:

  Microsoft. NET Framework 3.5 Service pack 1 and. NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 86

  Installation date: 13/11/09
  Installation status: windows has encountered an unknown error: code 57
  Update type: important

  Recently, I made a recovery of the pc and reformatted my entire hard drive to the issuance of the plant.  Yesterday, I downloaded a standalone installer (KB947821) to see if that would help.  He did not.

  I would like to have instructions step by step on how to obtain this update to install correctly.

  Thank you

  Quote your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7 RC. Win7) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.

  ===============

  Step #1 => foremost, note what version of .NET Framework is installed:

  How to determine what version of the .NET Framework is installed and determine whether the service packs have been applied
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/318785

  Step #2-online now see resolution method 2 in...

  When you try to install an update for .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5, you may receive Windows Update '0 x 643' error code or error code Windows Installer '1603' (ignore the title, if necessary)
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923100

  After running the tool that is appropriate and necessary, (re) install all versions of the .NET Framework (but the ones you noted in #1 above) manually using the download links on the page, and then run Windows Update manually install security updates for same.

  NB: If you remove the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 by using the tool, reinstall .NET Framework 3.5 will also install .net Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2. Then, Windows Update will offer .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

  IMPORTANT! =>, If you remove the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, reinstall your version of .NET Framework in the following order:

  1. the .net framework 3.5, then...
  2 .net framework 1.1, then...
  3 .net framework 1.1 SP1

  NB: KB923100 makes reference to this page: http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/05/30/611355.aspx.  Please read ALL as well as the related http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/pages/8904493.aspx before using the .NET Framework cleanup tool.

  Step #3 => Check-in at Windows Update and install the critical updates of security offered.
