• 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"?

• 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?

• 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.

• 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!

• DeskJet 722C works only with Windows 7

  OK, so I applied the DJ_Patch as described. (See http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Software-and/Deskjet-710-720-810-820-100-Series-prin... ) I have Windows 7, 64-bit and a HP Deskjet 722 C printer.  Tried to print the test page, but received the error from the printer.  Tried to add a printer, you are looking for the 722C, but it is not on the list, even tried to do Windows Update to search for my printer.   Tried to restart, which did not work or the other.  Still get error printer.  I appreciate any other suggestions.  BTW, the printer is connected via a USB to parallel port cable.

  My HP Deskjet 722C now works!  I spent several hours trying different things only to find out it was the cable use to connect the printer to our new computer.  He is there not a lot of info on the package of cable but if you watched closely he said it worked only with Win XP, me and Vista.  Who would have thought that the cable wasn't working with some BONE... me!  Once we went and bought a new cable ($40, Ouch!), we were running a few minutes.  I don't know that a cheaper cable is available online.

  I wanted to post this in the hope of saving someone money, time and frustration on the other.

• SENTINEL HASP KEYS 3.25 WORKS ONLY WITH WINDOWS 7

  I lived several of these posts here about the hasp and windows keys 7 and I tried many suggested fixes, but nothing works. I installed the software using Windows XP Mode in Virtual PC, I've updated, uninstalled drivers, reinstalled with and without the hasp key inserted. I use the Sigmanest V4, Mastercam9, and Mastercam10 software. All three of these programs worked fine with Windows XP service Pack 3. I did everything that I mentioned above and some of which you try to run the software in compatibility mode. Nothing I try works, Sigmanest software seems like it is recognizing the hasp key because it will be open, but it will not open in demo mode. The two programs Mastercam do not even recognize the hasp key. They open up and say that there is no present hasp key, then close. After years that Windows 7 has been out someone got a solution for this. Maybe they have, but I can't?

  Hello Chad,

  Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

  According to the description of your problem, it seems that you are trying to install the drivers for the Sentinel 3.25 HASP key. I checked the official site, it shows drivers for Windows, but did not mention the version of Windows.

  Here is the link: http://sentinelcustomer.safenet-inc.com/sentineldownloads/?s=&c=End+User&p=HASP+HL&o=Windows&t=Runtime+%26+Device+Driver&l=all#.

  I also checked this device and software Center of Microsoft Compatibility, and I couldn't find any information out there in that regard. So I suggest you to contact technical support SENITEL for troubleshooting further because they are the best people who can say that this device is compatible with Windows 7 or not.

  Hope this information is useful. Do get back to us after contacting them and please update your question on the forum.

  Thank you.

• Flash CS4 works only with Windows 7 64-bit and Kaspersky Internet Security

  I have a new computer to core i5 Windows 7 64 bit retail. With Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 installed Flash CS4 answers so that it is completely unusable. Uninstall KIS and it works quite well. I already read on another forum that someone of another encounter the same problem with the same combination of products. Does anyone else have this problem amd If Yes, how do you solve? I posted on the forum of Kaspersky without solution so far.

  Norton works OK with Windows 7 (64) and CS4?

  Your chance.  After a week of research I found someone who has thought about it.  Apparently his self-defense of Kaspersky which is causing the problem.  Under options disable control external sevice disable.  For me, that did the trick.  If it does not for you also try to disable self-defense under both options.  Once I did it was moving smooth again.

• Halo 2 Vista works only with Windows 7

  Hi, I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and I play Halo 2 Vista.

  • I played Halo 2 Vista this morning and it worked well as it would in my older OS Windows Vista. But when I get back home later I get this message when I start the game.
  • LIVE gaming on Windows failed to initialize. Maybe it's because an another LIVE Gaming on Windows application (for example the dedicated server Halo 2) is running on the same computer. Otherwise, reinstall the game may fix this problem.
  • I've never touched my computer since I came back from the game Halo 3 of my friends house. This was from 09:30 - 20:00 now it comes up with the error.
  • I uninstalled 3 times, changed several times compatibility, installed the LIVE update manually and just update by itself.
  I know that this isn't obviously a problem of compatibility due to the fact that I used to play on my Windows Vista SP2 and this morning.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  One thing you can try is to clean boot your system and test it.  If the problem disappears, then it will show that there is another software that is in conflict with the game.    Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

• 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.
