• Vista Home Premium: Startup time and office flaws often requiring the log off / log on to Correct

  At all to being able to help solve these problems successfully:

  When I bought my office, it came preloaded with Win XP (a FANATASTIC/s o!) with an installation disc free for Vista Home Premium. I have installed Vista until recently due to support XP being more available.

  Problems currently on a regular basis (every reboot) are:

  (1) long startup (sometimes nearly 10 minutes)

  (2) the "Blacktop" (AERO) Vista appears generally "gray" (like Win Classic) but with VERY little
  Services (icons missing, unable to run diagnostic programs, etc.).

  In this situation, I usually 'Log Off' and 'Connect' again and it fixes the problem-"bitumen".
  is back with the functions of the al. Despite this, I'll restart desktop using Services.msc. for all the functions

  are available.

  System information:

  (A) AMD 64 Athlon 3500 + (2.20 GHz)
  (B) 3.00 GB RAM
  (C) Vista 32 Bit (SP1 and SP2 installed (all updates current)
  (D) ATI Radeon XPress 200 Series (current driver)
  (E) all drivers are current (no changes required)
  (F) update BIOS (not not required)

  Note:

  (1) I am the user ONLY if the 'Default' options are regularly 'Log In' (as admin) - no guest accounts, etc.

  (2) I reduced some Desktop effects, which are not necessary (Menu Fade in and out, etc.) according to

  instructions of MSFT community on how to do this and what is safe to disable. This helped a little
  and I don't miss these features.

  (2) I deleted the "Windows.old" folder (as there was nothing to add to the Vista o/s).

  (3) I have NOT deleted the Partition which was part of the Win XP System Restore feature as)
  "I don't know if I should as well as to think that I should keep this system offline and running XP).

  (4) I use a security program that securely wipes deleted data, cache password, etc..
  Under Win XP, there was the possibility of "Protect Restore Points" (not required for Vista).
  I do NOT use the option "delete shadow copies".

  My questions are:

  (A) what is the cause of the boot extended both office and how to tackle it successfully?

  (B) what is the problem with the desktop computer? I don't mind the Log in and out a lot but would like to get rid
  me of this disadvantage.  I would like TO have the Vista boot WITHOUT having to Log in and out to

  ensure that the AERO desktop is available and functional.

  (C) should I delete the files and restore Partition in Win XP? Is this the cause may be a conflict with
  Vista? Also, please let know us if you think it would be better to keep these files available if no
  conflicts are possible or probable.

  (D) what is the path, the file name or folder (path if necessary) which governs the entire desktop
  (startup, appearance, services, etc.). so I can enter my security software to exclude it from
  be affected?

  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

  Incidentally - for all owners of Scanner Epson 1200U running Vista Service Pack 2:

  YES! Successfully, you CAN install and run this scanner on Vista with the EPSON Twain 5.53 driver without twisting your registry, etc.

  Steps to follow:

  (1) download the file of v5.53 (10245.exe) driver TWAIN Epson

  2) extract to the folder (default location or a location of choice) and open the folder

  (3) right click on the "Setup.exe" file, go to properties and set the compatibility to Win XP SP-2

  (4) run the configuration file and wait for Windows Vista to give up the search on the web, ignore the 'warning' when he

  comes to the top and connect the scanner to complete installation as you did under Win XP (or earlier versions)

  NOTE: You will have to wait a long TIME for the next window appears once complete Vista

  research on the web. It seems that the reason why a lot of Vista with the Epson 1200U Scanner users are

  running out of patience, that it was my problem-so, the Eureka moment happened!

  My camera works great! The only loss is you open TWAIN in the application, is not
  automatically start more. This may be fixable, but I'm glad it works and I don't know enough to make the necessary changes in the registry, etc.

  Thanks again for your help!

  If that didn't help, then maybe you would not survive the installation completely, and you will have to reinstall vista with updates it's still once, don't worry, it happens to all peoples.

• I need to reinstall Windows Vista home Premium, but I don't have it on the disc, I got a serial number.

  I've upgraded to windows 7, the upgrade requires a previous version of windows must be installed before it can be used.

  When I installed the upgrade first, it worked perfectly, unfortunately I do not have a set of recovery discs before upgradeing from Vista to 7 (stupid I know!).

  I bought the components to upgrade my PC and want to reinstall windows, but cannot without Windows Vista Home Premium disc, and I can't find anywhere to download them, or find someone willing to let me copy their discs (I only need a copy discs, I have my own serial number).

  True to form, I also forgot to make disks of backup to my laptop before it got a virus (edition windows Home premium), feeling very stupid.

  If anyone knows where I can get copies of these discs, it would releive a lot of stress.

  That you have a legable Vista product key, then use these installation files to make a .iso and then bootable DVD/USB as shown here:

  http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/Microsoft-Windows-and-Microsoft-Office-downloads.aspx

  This will install Windows Vista with the activation of the phone. Note using your Windows 7 update product key directly with the good Windows 7 .iso file directly should work and you should not need to install Vista. You can, or perhaps not to activate by phone.

• Vista Home Premium SP1 Reboot loop infinite, inaccessible Windows restore

  Problem: Update marked Service Pack 1 (I do not know the real KB #) sent my computer in an infinite loop.  After a reboot "3 3 0% complete configuration updates / don't turn off computer" appears and the percentage continues to 100%, the system reboots and repeat.  I left the computer to update last night and now he has been yet updated this morning.

  Is trying to solve: I studied what I can on this problem.  I tried to access the system restore via the following methods:

  1. Shut down the computer, restart the Advanced Boot Options screen boot mode safe.  Result: after the appearance of the logo windows at startup, the screen returns to the screen "Update Configuration".  This is the case on 'Safe Mode', 'Safe Mode with networking' 'Last good known Configuration (Advanced)' and "Directory Services Restore Mode" I have not tried other options in the screen options start
  2. Using the recovery DVDs I've done after the installation of Vista (circa Dec. 2006): result: restore option only includes the restoration of the recovery image of boot sector with a complete HD wipe factory-installed.  Not the restoration of the system of options available.

  Plug material: I have (obviously) Vista Home Premium installed above a factory installed Windows XP Media Center (SP2).  Partition 2 contains an area of recovery that will restore the original settings.  Another partition is Ubuntu, which is how I can log in and post this message.  Also:

  • Model: Compaq Presario SR2050NX Media Center
  • Processor: Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHz dual core
  • MoBo: ESC Asteropi 3
  • Chipset: ATI RC410
  • Southbridge: ATI SB400
  • Memory: 1024 M DDR2 - SDRAM (PC2-4200/PC2-4300/533 MHz)
  • HARD DRIVE: 250 GB
  • OS: Windows Vista editions Home Premium on XP Media Center SP2
  • Secondary to OS: Ubuntu 9.04

  Computing: Average
  
  Mood: upset

  My goal is to restore the system to a point before the installation of the update.  I didn't want to wipe the system and start over.

  Thank you

  Do a repair disc to do a repair system restore / boot:

  As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

  As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

  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.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista repair disc.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  There is not a disk of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  If this does not work, now looking to relocate, because you have only the factory recovery disc.

• My PC has been freezing on me. I am running 32-bit Vista Home Premium.

  My PC has been freezing on me. Everything just hangs and I have to use the reset button. I don't know why its happening, but its very predictable and only occurs under very specific conditions.

  It happens ONLY when I have "Shut Down", leave my computer off for at least a few hours and then turn it back on. It does not matter if I leave the power on or off. It will freeze in a few minutes to turn on my PC.

  Once I use the reset button, it freezes more until I have stop and wait for a few hours yet.

  If I stopped and turn it back on in a few minutes, it does not freeze. I haven't checked if pre-empting the gel by stopping before the Frost occurs prevents occur, I'll probably test the next time I have to leave my PC turned off for an extended period of time.

  If I use "Restart", it does not freeze. Although an old problem with very a decrease in performance after using "Restart" is still there. (Note: it is a very old problem that I've never been able to fix,.) I took several technology experts, and may not understand what is the cause either, but I found a temporary solution. Using Shut Down and then turn the PC back returns performance back to normal. Occurs when a reboot occurs as a result of the update of Windows too, so I just avoid using any form of "Restart" whenever possible, but I have always been updated Windows. I think that its not related to this problem of gel.)

  If I put it on sleep mode and come back after many hours, it does not seem to freeze. Recently, it froze once after that, but it didn't happen since then, so it might be a fluke.

  I don't know what is happening. It happened very rarely over the past 2 years but only started happening every time in the last 3 months. Windows told me recently that he recovered from a blue screen when it happened, but this message appeared only once so far.

  Whenever it freezes, I mean a period of activity of the HDD for about 2 seconds. And then read/write rhythmic sounds half lasting one second time per second, which continues for about 10 seconds. After that, the hard drive noise settle in a low kind of drone. I can barely hear the hard disk read or write something, but its much softer. It doesn't seem to change this State no matter how long I leave it.

  I think its some sort of hardware failure that only happens when the PC components are 'cold', if that's even possible, but I can't be sure.

  Speculation as to what is the cause of software or hardware? If it's a hardware problem, is there a particular part of the PC which would cause it to freeze predictable in such a specific circumstance?

  I use mode sees as a temporary solution instead of closing my PC, but I fear that the problem will be extended later.

  My motherboard is old enough that my CMOS battery is dying, it became apparent a month ago. I'll soon change the battery. I don't know if the problem might be related.

  Hello

  Start by making sure that the software is running properly and change this battery CMOS ASAP.

  And always make sure that the latest hardware drivers are downloaded and installed on your computer manufacturer's Web site.

  Go to their site > drivers download section > your model number > operating system > drivers > download and install.

• I am running vista home premium. Office is uninstalled. Updates to the office to make mistakes. Just to hide these updates (3).

  The update error is 80070641.

  Hi LinaA_794,

  ·         You did changes to the computer before the show?

  ·         You are able to install some other updates or get the same error?

  If office is uninstalled and office updates are available, you can choose to hide updates.

  If you want to install updates, follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the link step 7 to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

  Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

  Hi Adi181089,

  Thanks for posting your question.

  I suggest you try to launch a Scan SFC:
  1. click on the start menu, choose all programs, then Accessories, and then right-click on the item to the command prompt and select run as administrator.
  2. click on continue to allow to open a prompt with administrative privileges.
  3. run this command in the cmd prompt: sfc/scannow
  4. the cmd prompt should list text stating "start system analysis. This process will take time. »
  5. wait for the scan to complete (this may take several minutes, so be patient).  This command will scan all protected system files and attempt to replace the incorrect versions by appropriate Microsoft versions
  6. once the analysis is complete, the SFC tool will indicate whether or not it found no problems and whether or not he was able to correct
  7. If any errors are reported that SFC could not resolve, there are steps in this knowledge base article which explain how to locate and attempt to correct the errors.
  8. after fixing errors that are found, check if this solves the problem.

  Let us know if that helps.

• How to change the system from Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate 64 withoute lose the option of HARD drive backup?

  IM now running Vista Home Premium 32. I would like to change the system for Vista Ultimate 64 so I can run more than 4 GB of memory. Now Ive some factory settings if something happened, I can run my HARD drive restore. My question is how to change the Vista 64 operating system, so I can keep the recovery on my hard drive partition?  Mayby there is some kind of upgrade cd?

  Thank you

  Hello

  32-bit to 64-bit is not an upgrade

  It must be done with a clean installation using a full version ' / Ultimate 64 bit license

  Contact the manufacturer of your computer for more information on getting 64-bit ultimate, which I doubt they will always

• Windows Vista Home Premium cannot find Xbox 360 as extender

  This may be long but im giving information as possible.

  I'm good with the computer. My Vista Home Premium computer cannot find my xbox 360 as an Extender. When I use the WIndows media player 11 and share, he sees my xbox very well. Zune software, same thing. My xbox 360 is here no problem on my network in "My Network Places".

  In Media Center, once I typed the 8 digit number it is said that he can not find the Extender. I did the following:

  Reset my router
  Reformat my computer
  Reset my xbox 360
  Double checked I got the right 8-digit number in media center
  Disabled windows firewall
  Went to the tab exceptions and compatible: WIndows Media Center, Media Center Extender, eshell.exe, discovery network
  went to the management of the computer and turned on UPnP device host (changed the startup type to automatic and restarted my computer)
  Permit "filter multicast" in my router settings
  UPnp enabled in my router settings
  Upgrade Vista (with SP1 as well)
  Re-installed the drivers for my wireless card
  Connected to the Xbox 360 WIRED to my router

  Heres the funny thing, I have a Sony laptop vaio with Windows Media Center Edition 2005 on the same network that sees my xbox all the time. Its actually connected through a microsoft extension program (XboxMCE05Lite - enu.exe) basically it works fine.

  One funny thing that may help with my vista (Home premium) Windows Remote Assistant machine fails or the other.

  Any ideas? If this can help, too, this computer is built on the ground.  Sense, this isn't a HP, Dell, Sony, etc.

  Network equipment:
  Router Linksys WRT54G
  Map of Netgear WG311v3 54 Mbps Wireless

  works fine with my other laptop. So I guess that the problem must be my wireless card. I guess that's a PCI card it would have nothing to do with the problem. I'm going tomorrow to buy a NIC. USB Im not in a race simply because my internet works very well without getting a new network card. I am just puzzled and would like to get this to work because I hate running through computer problems and in abeyance. I'll get one tomorrow and let you know the guy.
