• meaning of windows 95, windows 98, windows 2000, windows xp, windows vista, windows7

  What are the meaning of these... windows 95, 98, 2000, xp, vista, 7?

  Hello

  The first version of Windows is Windows 1.0, which was released in 1985. Microsoft has released the second operating system was Windows 2.0 in 1987.

  The third major version of the Microsoft Windows platform is Windows 3.0 in 1990, which offered better performance, advanced with 16-color graphics.

  After Windows 3.0 was Windows NT which was code versioned as Windows 3.1. Then came Windows 95, which was code versioned as Windows 4.0.  Then, Windows 98, 98 SE, and Windows Millennium Edition each delivered as 4.0.1998, 4.10.2222, and 4.90.3000, respectively. Then all 9 versions x were counted as 4.0.

  Windows 2000 code was 5.0, and then came the Windows XP that has been encoded in 5.1. This brings us to Windows Vista, which is 6.0 and finally Windows 7 is the next significant logical and 7th version in the versions of Windows family.

• I HAVE A GAME THAT RECQUIRES WINDOWS 2000 XP BUT A PC WITH VISTA

  I wondered if download 2000 XP would ruin my PC. Should I just get a new game compatible with a vista PC? ~ ilianet

  You can do a lot of problems for your self.

  You would have to buy Windows 2000 or XP, and operating systems probably will not work on your computer anyway, because of not the drivers written for them by the hardware manufacturers.

  Try this:

  Right-click on the setup.exe from this game > properties > Compatibility tab at the top of the next window > check the box "run in compatibility for..." » >

  Drop-down menu, choose XP SP2 > apply > OK > see if it works.

  If this does not work, it would be a lot cheaper and less painful, to buy a new Vista compatible game.

• Restore Windows Vista to Windows 7

  I bought my second hand computer and told me that windows 7 was already installed, even if the laptop computer used Windows Vista originally. However, the copy of windows 7 is currently installed is not genuine. I don't want to buy Windows 7 I'm going well with Vista.

  Is it possible to restore windows Vista without an installation disk?
  Appreciate any advice!

  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

  This method is probably more through the installation of Windows 7:

  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.

  I need help restoring Windows Vista on my computer.  Please help this is finals week and I need my computer to take my final.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

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

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

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash when you're back running.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• The upgrade from Windows 2000 to Vista

  Yes, I'm trying to determine if I have to install windows vista after using Windows 2000 for the past eight years.  When XP came out I could see no reason to change because XP couldn't do anything more than Windows 2000.  Now, vista is out and everything ever written on this subject, it can do nothing more than Windows 2000.  Even if the voice activation has been fully successful since 1995, I heard that vista does not come with it.  Even if software video free DVD for many years, vista does not come with it.  Although windows 2000 integrates the easier menu system ever created, vista does not support the menu of windows 2000 System.  Windows 2000 starts, opens all programs instantly, works with internet and who manages all programs perfectly right now, in 2008, they made another OS.  Why did do XP and vista?

  So, why anyone would take another version of an OS after that the first works perfectly?  I've never understood this.  Help, please.

  Peter, there are several good reasons to upgrade to Vista. Depending on what you mainly use your PC for some may be more appealing then others. The following link will help you to discover who has the largest retail dealer and the will you more information about how to upgrade:

• Satellite A200-17O - how to restore Windows to the factory settings?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200-17O. I want to restore Windows Vista to factory settings, I did not need to backup all the files. I don't have the product recovery CD. When I press F8 and click on the "Repair" option, it will give me all the options, but when I click on the option to completely recover the system (the one on the bottom), it will simply open a window telling me to back up my data, then theres a button 'OK', and when I click that, the window will simply close and return to the menu options. All I want is to return Vista to factory settings.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  Yes, normally you can restore your computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery option. Therefore, you must follow the instructions here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

  If it doesn't work, you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If your computer laptop didn t come with such a recovery disk you create yourself using recovery preinstalled creator tool. This is mentioned in your user manual, have you checked it?

  Therefore, you need a few blank DVDs. I recommend the DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. Many users here have a good experience with these brands.

  If you have any other questions, just after again! ;)

• Re: IMPORTANT - how to install Windows 2000 on a Satellite L300 - 16 M (PSLB0E)?

  Hello

  I am an independent developer and absolutely need to install multiple operating systems on my * Satellite L300 - 16 M (PSLB0E) *: it is very important for me because I need to check the functioning of the software under each environment for real (not not using solutions like VMware, for example).

  Well, then, right now, I did a backup Acronis image of original full HDD, and then deleted the original scores of WinRE and data, reduced and moved from disk to the partition of Vista... and installed System Commander 8 to prepare my future multi - initialize. For the moment, everything sounds right: Vista works perfectly!

  Also note, I have configured the SATA in the BIOS Setup in "Compatibility" mode just because I don't need AHCI in my type of use!

  Second step: now, * I have to install Windows 2000 Pro (SP4) EN *. Of course, I am aware that the sticking point is the SATA/AHCI driver, which is not present in the CD of Win 2 K... So, I just make a new CD integrating these drivers using nLite; now, I tried using the driver Intel site on Intel 82801 HEM / HBM SATA AHCI controller (ICH8M) and page drivers Toshiba XP.

  But it does not completely: the Win 2 K install begins... All the drivers are well charged (including the ones AHCI) and just after this stage of loading, I get a black screen with just a blink of an eye cursor at the top left of the screen... indefinitively :-(

  I tried also to SATA mode "AHCI" in the BIOS and it's the same thing.

  So, what to do next?

  I used the wrong AHCI drivers? Do I need to integrate as many drivers Toshiba (about chipset, display, sound) in the installation of Windows 2000 using nLite CD? I mean the capacity of the CD is not reached.

  Is there a way or a tutorial to install Windows 2000 somewhere? For XP, I think it will be easier because SP3 seems to support AHCI, but earlier, my problem is to install Windows 2000: Although Microsoft wants to leave-it, there are many professionals who still use-it... And my work as a developer, is to make my software also works on this OS! * I really need to find a way to install it on this computer! *

  Awaiting your response informed and all the tips or idea that could help me to complete the task.
  In a word: HELP! Oops!

  Post edited by: eanon

  > No I used the wrong AHCI drivers?
  Perhaps.

  As far as I know that you need the crib Intel Matrix Storage and in this package, you will find the SATA drivers.
  http://www.Intel.com/support/chipsets/IMSM/index.htm

  There you have to choose to get the latest driver - version PV-> Win 2000 8.5-> there you must take the package from point 3

  Good luck
