• Can I copy the computer my brother Vista System32 folder and navigate through it on my Windows 7 computer?

  Can I copy the computer my brother Vista System32 folder and navigate through it on my Windows 7 computer? I like to compare the old and the new and see what works, but I'm not sure it's legal, and I assure you.

  Hi Aaron Campbell,

  To help focus in the right direction, I would like to know what exactly are you trying to accomplish?

  You try to compare windows vista and windows 7?

  Yes, you can copy the folder system32 on a flash drive and then compare it with windows 7.

  The System32 folder and its subfolders contain files of system operating base for your installation of windows operating system. See the link below for more information:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457124.aspx

  Note:

  ؠ You cannot copy all the contents of the system32 on the flash player folder because the essential components are in use.

  ؠ Do not replace or try to copy the system32 (from windows vista) folder for drive C on windows 7, the computer may become unstable.

• stop ID10T users of abandonment downloads by shutting down the computer or put it to sleep

  Key issue:
  Short of locking all users of the computer, is it possible to use my admin account to stop temporarily to other users of the computer is shut down, put to sleep or into hibernation mode? At least until that I get home from work?

  Explanation:

  Normally, all users should be able to put the computer into standby or turn off the console. I want that way normally. However, I share the computer with other people in the House and must work full time, leave the computer unattended during the day.

  For the last three days, I tried to download a LARGE file from a slow server an approximate time of 6 hours. Oh, to add insult to injury I can't the server let me resume a download. To allow the user to get on the computer while I'm at work and by downloading the file, I used Fast User Switching (name of the XP, in case it's called something different to 7) to put the computer on the Welcome screen, while my regular account download.

  For the past two days, despite myself, leaving a note saying: 'Do NOT stop the computer or put it to sleep', when I got home from work, the computer was off, and the download was incomplete. I got an explanation "you were always telling me to stop when I'm done, I did not forget at this time." Then today I started downloading two hours ago and was only asked "could I please verify my email address?", so I donnГ the computer. When she was done, she put the computer to sleep, which was just as bad as l ' turn off as much as to cancel the download.

• No restore point on the computer and unable to create restore points

  original title: restore point

  I don't have and can't seem to create a restore point on my computer... Why?

  Hello

  May be an indication of corruption. Turn off System Restore in Control Panel of configuration/system under Protection System. Then restart and restart the service (recheck it before turn off readers). See if it will then create a restore point.

  If this fails, you probably experience some interference from other software installed on the system. You need to selectively disable the axis of startup programs until the restoration of the system behaves normally.

• PC fan can't even when the computer is put to sleep

  I have a HP Pavilion a6010n pc computer. The fan not stop, even in mode 'sleep'. Can U help me please?

  Hi, Jason.

  Clean the dust bunnies

  Once a month, use compressed air to clean all external openings, including the fan from dust, etc.

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_vista-hardware/PC-fan-runs-constantly/f649965e-2470-41DA-8803-25bbd4533852

  1. some processes were the largest part of your share of processor (up to 50% or more for example avp.exe, svchost.exe).

  2. a graphic card intensive application is running (for example. Games).

  3. There are large amount of dust in the PC so there are ventilation problem which makes the hot PC and trigger the extreme to accelerate the process to cool the PC.

  4. the cooler or heat sink is malfunctioning or is disconnected somehow the processor.

  Solution

  1. run the Task Manager and sort the list of processes based on the sharing of processor and see which application is considered the highest. Once identified, repair, remove or interrupt the process.

  2. stop playing the games or other GPU intensive application or use the cooling pad if you want to continue using them.

  For 3 and 4, take it to a nearby hp service center and tell them the problem.

• WD passport external drive breaks down computer hp amd athlon, vista 32. Get the computer running again after that 3 full restores.

  Have wd passport, it blocks the computer, (blue, white, green screen screen), the problem started when I tried to update the wd software from windows update, partially backed up files? Afraid to fix the unit on my computer I had to do 3 times system restore to return the computer to life a little somehow... but don't trust him more. A defender analyses and analyses of Kaspersky on wd drive and software, computer, crashed... again... and again. He is back on? So do shred computer and buy a new one? This is similar to what killed my Dell a few years ago... only without connection... computer external hard drive is HP (compaq cq60) AMD athlon x 2 64 vista 32 bit nvidia graphics (paralyzed, unable to start the control screen). No disk Windows vista. I think I have backup and restore disks but not enough savvy to use computer. Checked with computer shops, the Bill to fix is more than some new computers... 3-400 dollars.  At end of rope here, want to throw all this stuff of high technology on the window (pun!) and get back to newspapers and mail.

  * original title - I bought Vista Ultimate and had to reset the computer to factory vista and I did via down load. Is it possible to recover the Ultimate. I bought three different times, and I have my license info. *

  I would ask you to contact the Microsoft customer service to get the installation disk. After installation, you can use the same license key that you purchased to activate Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. Or you can also contact the website from which you downloaded the Windows vista ultimate.
