• Skype works only in Windows Vista

  Hi team,

  I have Windows Vista Home Permium, Service Pack 1 installed in my laptop. I installed version 4.0 of Skype in the system. When trying to connect to Skype, it gives me a message "Unable to connect to Skype", Contact system administrator or wait and try after 2 minutes. I am the administrator of the system.
  I installed Bitdefender as my Antivirus system and use only the default Windows Firewall settings, because I do not use third-party firewall settings.
  Kindly help me with a solution to connect on Skype...
  Thanks in advance.
  Kind regards
  Ravindra.

  I guess you are using the password and login name.

  Have you tried to clean the temporary Internet files, including Cookies?  See IE/Tools/Internet Options / delete.

  Can you connect if you launch your e-mail program by right-clicking on the shortcut on the desktop or the Start Menu and selecting the option "Run As Administrator"?

  Have you tried to temporarily disable all your programs type of security to see if you can connect then?

  Can you connect if you try with 'Safe Mode of network?

• Skype works only on Windows 10

  I upgraded my laptop ASUS (portable UX32A) from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Now, Skype for desktop PC does not load. It is located at automatically sign-in during windows startup. It starts to load upwards and then stops working until it has fully loaded. There is a message saying that Skype has stopped working and that the details have been sent to MS and then it stop Skype.

  So far, I tried all of the following characteristics: -.

  (1) downloaded and installed the latest version of Skype (7.18) for desktop - 8 times. No change

  (2) tried to "deep" uninstall Skype from my laptop and then install an earlier version of Skype. No change

  (3) renamed my file "appdata" old Skype Skype. No change

  (4) says Windows to search for the latest drivers. No driver has changed

  (5) the Windows 10 troubleshooting program are used to try to load-up Skype in an earlier version of windows. I tried all, but he does not always load

  I can get the video version of Skype at work which is part of the window system 10. This shows my camera and his work as everything. But it of a bad version of Skype with few features and also locks Skype to one user on this computer. I can't find a way for other users to use this version of Skype. So I am keen to get Skype for office working on this laptop.

  I think that MS has launched a version of Skype that is not compatible with my laptop with Windows 10 and that the only solutions are to return to Windows 7 or to stop using the Skype program.

  Someone at - it other ideas how I might be able to fix it?

  I gave up trying to make Skype work on this laptop with Windows 10.

  The laptop was working fine with all my programs (including Skype) with Windows 7 - provided operating system with the laptop. Then, you receive a message from Windows saying that you can switch to Windows 10 for free and that your computer is compatible. Once you do this, all the trouble begins. In this case, Skype doesn't work with my other programs and you spend you life is talking with people from Skype (no help at all) or in the lounges of cat like that.

  The answer, in my mind, is to use an operating system that runs on your computer and not upgrade to Windows 10, because it's probably not compatible with applications or hardware on your / my PC.

  Now, I returned to Windows 7, all is well again. And I'll keep my PC this path and isolate the reminder throbbing on the PC icon that tells me to upgraded to Windows 10.

• Halo: Combat Evolved for PC works only on Windows Vista - Error Message "" unload the debugger, and then try again."

  I'm having a problem running Halo: Combat Evolved on Windows Vista. I can insert the disc and install the game without problem. The problem is that when I try to launch the game, I get error message saying "" unload the debugger, and then try again." I tried to install some of Halo patches to see if that would fix the error (for example, 1.6 and 1.7), but when I try and open the patch .exe file I get an error message telling me to go to a microsoft Web site or try to update the game manually. In addition, I tried to contact Gearbox Software to see if they could help me, all they said was to contact Microsoft.

  Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the game does not work for me and how can I make it work?

  Let me know, thanks. :)

• Palm Zire 71 works only with Windows Vista

  I recently updated a program that I use on my desktop and sync with my Palm Zire 71. To get the new update on my Palm, I tried to use Palm quick install. I believe that this does not work with Windows Vista!  What are my options?  I don't know how to get this update on my Palm so that I can synchronize my data between my desktop and Palm Zire 71. Any suggestions for this?

  Have you tried right clicking on the shortcut to quick setup, or the .exe and select "Run As Administrator"?

• Y580 built in cam w/Skype works only on Windows 7

  Hello

  just got my first IdeaPad (refurbished, the Amazon warehouse).
  It came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and I've now installed Skype 6.3.0.105.
  The built-in cam seems to work in general.

  Audio calls in Skype are fine, but I can't place a "Videocall" to one of my contacts.

  I have downloaded/installed a driver for the cam, but that did not solve my problem.

  I would like your suggestions on how to get the video running in Skype finally.

  Hi qwertz123,

  Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.

  When you try to make a video call, you get error messages? The button is grayed out? It asks you to pay such as discussed in this thread?

  A screenshot would be great if you get the error messages.

  Let me know your findings,

  See you soon

• Programs work only with windows vista

  I've had nothing but trouble with my new computer and am more convinced, it's because of Vista.  Every program that I buy, which says compatible with vista doesn't work properly or at all.  The most recent is Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.  It worked 'ok' for a short period and now does not start at all.  I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and I get the same message "not responding".  I bought other programs and had to take them because they would not work with vista.  I also have a lot of programs that I can't use because they are not compatible with vista.  When I bought my computer, I asked for XP and learned from Dell that it came only with Vista... What I want to know is can I get a refund for vista so I can get an operating system that works?  Thank you.

  There may be a problem with the operating system.  Programs you cite have no problems on my computer and I have not heard of them being problems on someone elses.

  XP has not been for sale for a few years.  Any refund is Dell.  What edition of Vista do you have?  You can use the recovery software and restore your computer as long as the plant and start over.

• Skype works only on Windows 8.1 64bits.

  Hello.

  I'm on Windows 8.1 64bits.

  I installed the latest version of Skype 7.7.

  But I get the following error.

  Windows cannot find "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe'.)" Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.

  While Skype does not open... Help, please.

  

  Go to start Windows and in the run box, type regedit , and then press the OK button. This will open the Windows registry. Find this key:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options

  Expand this key and if you saw an entry for Skype.exe there, remove it.

  In order to find the right key in the registry, you must first click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, Microsoft, e.t.c.

• HP DV6768se Mini Remote works only on Windows 7!

  Just like the title says, my mini remote control won't work for nothing, I have windows 7 ultimate. I have the ENE CIR Receiver driver installed (41645) and with this driver, the only thing that works is the button to switch to the external display. I tried to change the battery twice (was a 2 Pack of brand new) still nothing. I even tried to change a new driver ENE CIR driver (44983) which is supposed to be for windows 7.but with this driver even not that external display button will work. This remote was working find on windows vista (but everything still sucked him )

  For your model, all you need to do is to install Quick Launch Button software, CIR driver comes into it.

  Uninstall the current ENE CIR driver, and install software QLB, Win7 Upgrade guide, here, your laptop is in level 2.

• Intel Wimax 5350 works only with windows 7/t400

  As someone who uses the Server 2008 on my desktop, when I received my t400 a few days ago I hesitated at the idea of using vista.  so I decided to download and install windows 7 64-bit (Vista 32 bit... I did an install own good... I think).  I haven't heard of anyone having problems with the drivers wireless in windows 7 and, indeed, intel States on their site that windows 7 will automatically install the drivers for the card 5350 wireless.

  Unfortunately, during the installation of windows 7 was complete the drivers were not installed and I don't have access to the internet.  I therefore had to take my Office Wireless usb adapter, then plug it to access the internet.  Windows Update has not fixed the problem.  so I installed the visa of intel 64-bit drivers and windows told me that my wimax device has been recognized, the drivers have been installed, etc.

  except the wireless card still does not work!  He is currently under listening network cards as area network/2 connection cable unplugged/intel wimax link 5350.  I do not understand... should not it listed as being a wireless network connect as is my usb adapter?

  I think that the problem might be that in Device Manager, I don't have a driver for the controller network, serial port pci or pci simple communications controller.

  It is quite frustrating and I really regret not putting more thought in this installation of windows 7.

  Thanks for the help

  I have a T400 with 5350 Intel and Windows 7 x 64, I downloaded and installed the

  Intel PRO / Wireless and WiFi Link drivers only for Windows Vista * (3298 KB) and the

  Intel® utility connection WiMAX PROSet/Wireless for Windows Vista * 64-bit (9206KB) from the Web site below.

  http://Downloadcenter.Intel.com

  Furthermore, my "Intel(r) WiFi Link 5350' and ' Intel WiMAX Link 5350" listed in the "Network adapters" category, I have not any category 'Wireless Network Connect' at all. "

  I hope this helps!
