restarting vista

My copy of W vista isn't on the CD but on a partition on the hard C drive. The store that supplied the computer says I can only reload the Vista operating system three times. What should I do after that?  david4752

Hello

There is no limit on the number of times that you can reinstall the license for the Windows operating system on the same computer with a preinstalled license.

Everything that happens is you may use the Activation of the phone and talk to a real person

There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

This can help you (download files and make your own DVDs):

http://www.heidoc.NET/Joomla/technology-science/Microsoft/57-Windows-Vista-direct-download-links

And here are instructions on how to burn ISO disk images:

http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/isorecorder.html

The download links and information on how to make the ISO file, and then create the Setup DVD above are at this link:

"How to download a Vista ISO and create a Setup DVD or USB"

http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/301852-Vista-ISO-download-create-installation-DVD-USB.html

"How to create a USB of Vista Installation key '

http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/181538-USB-bootable-Vista-installation-Flash-thumb-drive.html

___________________________________

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:

"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 on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought 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.

Them or us ask the right sequence of key.

___________________________________

And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

___________________________________

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.

    Hello Chris

    This post has nothing to do with the sound card, but with the network card.

    Problem is that your laptop can not find boot device. In the BIOS you can set boot priority settings and devices are together should be defined as device of first, second and so on bootable.
    Usually HDD is set to optical disc drive first one, as the second, LAN as third. Start the laptop computer he tries to boot from the HARD drive. If there is something wrong portable following defined peripheral research and try to start.

    In your case HDD is not available somehow. There is no bootable media in the optical disc drive, and the search for the next available device specifications and this device is LAN card. Of course he cannot start too, and because of that you get this message check cable.

    In order to check you BIOS and devices defined in the Startup tab settings please.
    You can also after the start press F12 to see if the HDD is listed there.

    Please post the result.

    WIndows Update asks me to install Vista SP1. I did and got into the infamous infinite loop of SP1 (infinite loop ' configuration updates stage 3 of 3 0% "with Vista SP1). I used F8 to repair my computer, and I chose a restore before the SP1 update point has been installed. The restore point has been applied successfully, so I have the computer in the back. Super.

    If have Vista Ultimate 64-bit. Things seem fine but then it restarts. I'm starting to think that there may be a motherboard problem (I hope this isn't).

    I have two monitors connected to my computer. Both monitors sometimes show my desktop computer, other times the additional monitor receives no signal at all. (I have a KVM switch, so when I switch to my laptop, the monitor is receiving no signal starts works fine - until I have switch back to my desktop PC and then it gets no signal again).

    Second time to answer that line however initially seems to have disappeared. The message displayed

    Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
    Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
    obstacles in the path?

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The

  • Portege R500: XP - Vista Dual Boot

    After much struggling R500 I Dual Boot XP Vista works fine.

    I bought the R500 with Vista, but has found a use not very good for real.

    Microsoft has announced that you can go back to XP if you have licensed professional Vista - but Toshiba will still provide an installation CD.

    I decided to set up a dual boot with another license XPPro rather than do a reinstall. Many of my problems also apply to a straight reinstall XP.

    You must reduce the Vista partitions or data in order to create space for a new primary partition, and then start it from a XP disc to install it in the new partition.

    When you are installing XP, you will get a crash scren blue before arriving to screen the asking where you want to install because the XP CD does not one for hard disk sata driver, unless include you the operating system to include the correct driver, or use F6 to load the drivers you need.

    You need the drivers Intel Matrix - available on their website - here
    http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Filter_Results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2800&OS FullName = Windows * + XP + Professional & lang = eng & strOSs = 44 & submit = Go %21

    and you have to point 7 that you put on a key usb, floppy disk to use when you press F6.

    But beware: when installing XP you indicates a choice of your special controllers and you choose - there seems to be about 4 in the list. I didn't know which one to choose. Indeed the list scrolls and the one you want is 82801GBM SATA AHCI (mobile) which is near the bottom of the list. If you choose the wrong process ends with a crash Stop blue screen 0007B.

    With the right driver XP installs fine. When you restart Vista then seems to have disappeared (although there is not, and you can see the files of XP and Vista drive). The problem is that XP has replaced the Vista boot file you will need to repair Vista.

    How to solve this problem is to use a Vista boot CD, cross the first screen, select Repair, select command prompt and type at the command prompt:

    Bootrec.exe /fixMBR
    and then
    Bootrec.exe /fixBoot

    then exit and restart.

    Vista works then, but XP went!

    then you need a utility to help you change the Vista boot record - I used EasyBCD (easily available on the web) failed with Acronis OS Loader.

    Another problem - I got a message "hal.dll lack" that stopped XP installation as well. It is because the number of partition in the file boot.ini, he built was wrong--for me the exact number was 3. XP with no stage Hat device I could enter Vista and use Notepad to edit the boot.ini file

    Once I had two starting systems, I could update XP and load the drivers of Toshiba. Once all Toshiba drivers had been installed in the system tree had no warning yellow and everything seems to work OK.

    The whole process is well documented on the web but the points that I've highlighted here were not or caused me a special pain and took a lot of trial and error and research develop and when I called them last week and some of these points were not apparently known of and were not resolved by the Toshiba UK support.

    I have now a satisfactory dual boot - XP is much better for me than Vista - and I've come back to Vista if service packs, etc. mean that he seems to have an adequate return.

    I hope Toshiba will document this process properly and publish the results and provide an easy way to get the files you need in a single operation, rather than having to download each bit separately.

    Good luck!

  • BSOD appears during the installation of Windows XP Home on Vista Equium A100-027

    Hello

    Like many users, I need to install Windows XP Home edition on my new satellite. It comes with Vista pre-installed. I inserted the Windows XP Home edition installation CD, but it stops with 'Blue Screen' after about 5 minutes of loading the drivers.

    Can someone give me a step by step guide on installing XP on Vista on the computer satellite phone? For example, what drivers should I? What (URL)? Should I format the hard drive? How to do this, i.e. restart vista what mode?

    Any other useful information in this sense will be useful?
    Thank you

    Hello

    You want to replace the Vista operating system or do you want to use the two BONES?

    If you want to use both I would recommend installation of XP on the second partition NTFS.
    I m not 100% sure why the blue screen appears during installation of XP, but sometimes the installation of XP operating system was not possible because the XP OS CD did not contain the SP2.

    Therefore, it would be desirable to create CD of XP installation that includes SP2.
    This can be done using the software called nLite. Maybe it helps
