can I switch from 32-bit win vista home prem 64-bit win vista home prem?
Yes, you can, but you need to back up and do a custom installation. There is no place on the way to upgrade from Windows Vista 32 bit to 64 bit.
Installation and relocation of Windows Vista
Back up your files - Microsoft Corporation: software, Smartphones...Boot from the Windows Vista DVD
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows Vista click Next.
You will receive the following warning:
The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.
(At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK
The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.
Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.
You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

After 1 year with the help of Windows Calendar on Vista Home Premium, I'm suddenly not able to use it (impossible to add new appointments and stored all appointments have mysteriously disappeared). I get a message saying "You cannot add appointments to a calendar that is disabled" the details of State "access denied." ... How is - it happened 'out of nowhere '? How to activate it? It's very frustrating... I searched the forums and Microsoft google the question. I found some results suggesting to either change the registry or download the fix automatically and manually merge in my registry. I tried both with no result. I have event tried to remove the old calendar and create a new one... still nothing. Any suggestions? Help, please!
Hello NYintelligentinvestor,
Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.
Sorry, you have a problem with that. What type of entry you are trying to add?
Look at the calendar and on the left side, to half way down you will see a small block that will have something like "NYintelligentivnestor schedule" - there is a small block to the left of this one. To activate the calendar, click on the box to place a check mark in it.
If there are calendar shown in this block, then go to "file" on the main toolbar and click on "new calendar" - one should then appears in a block with a check mark in the box on the left.
I hope this helps. Please let us know status. Thank you! Engineer James Microsoft Support answers visit our Microsoft answers feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

Cannot install Wireless Adapter (card NETWORK or USB key) to the Pavilion p6340a Win 7 Home Prem
I removed a work card TP-Link to a Pavilion a1300a XP Home PC network to put in my Pavilion p6340a Win 7 (64-bit) Home Prem PC.
Download and install the current drivers of TP-Link.
Installed everything well and the adapter can be seen in sub "Change adapter settings" in network and sharing Center and shows as working properly in Device Manager, but it is not recognized as a network within the network and sharing Center.Under "Manage wireless networks'" nothing appears, if I then click on Add"then manually create network profile" "I then get an informative message '" an unexpected error occurred'. "
Suspect a problem with the NETWORK card, I uninstalled it and its drivers and tried to install a USB wireless adapter with the same exact result and the error message. It seems that there must be an OS problem or something stopping the wireless to work. USB adapter both NIC work properly when installed on the former Pavilion a1300a XP Home PC. NETWORK card and USB adapter are the current drivers for Win7.
All the ideas it driving me crazy. A simple 5 minutes on any other PC task turned into many.many hours without solution.
After many hours of uninstall re install & try everything under the Sun in many forums, I finally found a solution. Despite trying with firewall disabled at different times was the final fix
- Uninstall NETWORK card and USB drivers and devices.
- Then uninstall the AntiVirus (in this case AVG Internet Security)
- Reinstall the NETWORK card and drivers
- Reinstall AntiVirus
Tried the USB adapter as well so that the antivirus has been uninstalled and installed no. with problems.
Everything works very well.

Hi Whitehawk07,

· Who is the service pack installed?
1. make sure that you close all applications and programs that you run before turning off the computer.
2. you can also disconnect any external devices like printer, fax machine, connected to the computer and check if the problem persists.
3 start the clean boot computer and check if the problem still persists. Link below will help you to start the computer in clean boot:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

Original title: Error Installing Win Vista Home premium.
I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. Suddenly, it wouldn't start. I changed the boot CD ROM and put my Vista disc in and tried to do a "repair" that it came with missing engine or something like this. After several attempts, I gave up and formatted hard drive losing all my data and programs (rather difficult to backup files when the computer does not start). So, I tried a complete installation. I put in the license code and he started the installation. After a few minutes, the message came; "Windows Setup could not reset the deployment engine. to install windows, restart the installation. I tried several times including completely turn off the computer for several minutes and try again. I tried several times. I thought oh well, I will install my Windows 7 program (this and never used). Error on this installation was: your CPU is only good for 32 bit and Win 7 I have is a 64-bit version. I'D RATHER INSTALL VISTA BUT need help on the error regarding the deployment engine. Thank you, Lloyd

Where can I find the download of Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1?
I did a full restore in Win Vista Home Premium from recovery disks. When you set the computer, I enabled Windows Update before remembered me that I had to also download Vista Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 2. Windows Update had already downloaded and installed 100 updates before I remembered.
Now, I can't find a download site for Vista Service Pack 1 and 2 on the Windows site. Every link I click on that is inactive.
Can someone tell me where to go for Vista SP1 and SP2 downloads now that Vista is no longer supported?
Any other ideas?
Should I still SP1 and SP2? This computer will serve as my husband for basic e-mail, IE8 and preparation of simple Word documents. He'll have Norton 360 installed.
Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions or advice. Rookie mistake - I knew that Vista is no longer supported, but I never imagined that I could not download as basic as the SP1 and SP2 to Windows. I hope that I simply found the location of the 'magic' yet.

Please, please install all service packs. Ignore all, messages of "DO NOT click DOWNLOAD if YOU ARE UPDATING a SINGLE computer" read you. It works very well.
Also - please please install something other than Norton 360 AV.

Scan to folder installation network - Win VISTA Home Premium
Printer is HP Officejet Pro 8600
When I try to install the Scan to folder network on a desktop computer running Win VISTA Home Premium Web page displays the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". There is no option to continue anyway. Under Tools > Internet Options > security all parameters have a default value.
On my old laptop under Win XP SP3 and newer laptop running Win 7 Home Premium, when I run the analysis of the installation of the network folder, I have to continue, and then configuration page will become available. Under Tools > Internet Options > security settings are set to default.
I'm curious to know why I can't have analysis of screen network on Win VISTA Home Premium system folder but I can do on both other systems? All three computers are on the same home network.
P.S. as for the Scan to E-mail Wizard, which gives the message that this option is not available on my printer, however on the touch of 8600 printer screen option is there and he tells you how do it. Scanning to Email app also allows me to scan to e-mail.
Initially this feature was not mentioned on all models of the 8600, just the models more and premium that you note. However, due to the overwhelming popularity of this HP feature published scanning to email app for the majority of printers who have access to web services.
I hope that answers your question!

Need to find a way to install Win Vista Home (I have my own series) for Win 7 Upgrade post.
My laptop came with Windows Vista, and I recently bought an upgrade to Windows 7 for her. The upgrade works only as an upgrade, not as a stand-alone installation.My computer recently crashed, and with top Vista recovery CD is defective, so I have no way to use the upgrade CD.Is it possible to arrange a download of the Vista test for my to validate with my own serial number or to order a copy?Hello
Here are different ways 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
Check if you have 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.

How to make a Win Vista Home Premium PC to operate in "XP Mode"?
Hello
My Win Vista Home Premium PC cannot 'see' my Canon Lide 30 Scanner or work with my Canon printer i865. Install the software and drivers on the provided disks not even because of "compatibility issues".
For this reason the "updates available" on the Canon site (for applications and drivers on the disks) only will be not installed because 'old' versions are not on my pc.
My pc can 'see' - if that is the right word - my printer in settings, but no further acknowledges that this, and even when the printer is turned on it will not even try to print anything.
If I can still understand how to get the Vista pc to "run in xp mode" - assuming there is an 'xp mode' for Windows vista to use - this will allow my computer to use the printer and scanner.
There is nothing really wrong with the printer or scanner while they worked fine with the XP pc.
Software compatibility problems are more precisely to do with two pilots and the ocr software for the scanner and ALL the drivers and the software of the printer.
I hope someone can help because I don't want to have to get a different printer/scanner (or upgrade to Win 7 - will this regognise OS my printer and scanner?)
These options are all too expensive.
Thanks for any help
Bob
Hello Bob,
Compatibility mode is supposed to help eleviate problems not to cause even more problems :-)
You can actually get some decent printer/scanner price FRO reasonable combinations of our days. You could try (if in the United Kingdom) is Wilkinson (Wilko) stores; W.H.Smith; and Ryman.
Another alternative is to dual-boot your server (assuming you have aretail copy of XP). This invloves XP install on another partition on your hard drive. The only drawback is that you would have to boot XP to use your printer (assuming that you keep your current).
I currently have a brother printer copy Scanner that I bought the Ryman stationery, a few years ago. I only paid about £50 for it at the time. My only problem with the brother machine is that there is no way (on my model in any case) to turn the printer off cleaning option. As the PC and the printer are in my room the printer starts always clean at about 04:00. It is not fun to be surprised into a deep sleep by strange noises coming from the printer :-)
