String 'command prompt' should I type to get windows vista to start in Vista?

I have an acer laptop that someone gave it to me. They said that the operating system has been "liquidated" hard drive. How can I get vista to boot using a command prompt?

Hello

If Vista has been removed from the car then you will need to contact Acer for installation
media, so you can put Vista on the disc. The laptop needs the drivers and
other Acer utilities would provide on an OEM installation disc

  • a windows 8 NEW ACER AND the computer will be returned. What should I do to get windows 8 transferred to a new pc? thxs for any help

    BOUGHT AND INSTALLED windows 8 NEW ACER a few weeks ago and now have decided to return the ACER.  What should I do to get windows 8 transferred to a new pc?     can I "return" windows 8?

    thxs for any help

    You must first remove Windows 8 on the computer by restoring it to its factory State. This will allow you to transfer the license to another computer and reactivate over the telephone:

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    ------------------

    Continue to install 8 Windows on the new computer and reactivate by phone if necessary:

    1. press the Windows key + X , and then click run, and then type: slui.exe 4

    2. then press the ENTER"" key.

    3. Select your "country" in the list.

    4. choose the option "activate phone".

    5. stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.

    6. explain your problem clearly to the support person.

I scanned my computer COMPLETELY , used Disk Defragmenter and restarted the computer and nothing is the fix. The same problem of window will also the Internet. After all it the default theme has been well, deleted. Any chance to resume?

    2. Type the following command and press ENTER: sfc/scannow (Yes there is a space after sfc) the sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt.
    2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
      findstr/c: "[SR] cannot repair the military file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt

      Note The Sfcdetails.txt file contains details of every time that the System File Checker tool has been run on the computer. The file contains information about the files that are not repaired by the System File Checker tool. Check the date and time entries to determine the problem files that were found last time that you ran the System File Checker tool.

    3. Type the following command and press ENTER:
      Edit sfcdetails.txt

      The Sfcdetails.txt file uses the following format:

  • Impossible to get Windows Vista Mail to work since the installation of FireFox

    In recent weeks, been unable to access the Internet or use any messaging service using IE8. Internet Explorer opens not - except in safe mode with network. I spent several hours to solve this problem without success. Then as a last resort, I downloaded and installed Firefox and in normal mode the page Firefox came and I have full access to the Internet and Microsoft Hotmail - however I can't get Windows Vista Mail to work.

    WMUtil is very easy to perform and can fix things.  Especially if you got rid of McAfee.  You may still need to remove your e-mail account and then add again, but it's also easy to do.

    Many people find Thunderbird much more preferable to alternatives to Microsoft.

    Background: I followed the instructions from Microsoft to start a command prompt in a regular folder residing on the hard drive (see the article: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/320148).

    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.

    Try this:

    Toshiba Recovery:

    To access the recovery partition Toshiba, powering the laptop. Press 0 (zero) key and turn on the laptop. Keep holding down the zero key until the TOSHIBA logo, which is where you should start to type the zero key repeatedly. Stop if the device emits a sound signal or when the TOSHIBA logo disappears. The screen should light up * MODE of RECOVERY of HARD drive * for a fraction of a second, and then load the Toshiba Recovery program directly from the hard drive.

    Note that this clears all data and reload all the software factory default. Be sure to back up all your important personal data beforehand!

    You can also make recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing 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

  • Get windows Vista to reinstall on my computer

    Original title: Getting windows 7 to install in my computer

    My laptop with windows vista crashed. He came with a cd to reintall the operating system and I did not know that I should make a cd image and system restore. The flagship product is clearly printed on the bottom of my computer. I tried to buy a cd of windows vista retail, but the only option available in internet is oem versions, which I have no idea how to install. The microsoft Web page does not show an option to buy older versions of windows. Given that my laptop is 5 years old, the new version of windows 8 will be not possible to install. What can I do to solve my problem? Is there a website where I can buy windows vista to reinstall in my pc? Thank you for any information you can give me to fix my computer.

    Thank you for your information.  I'm not an experienced person in the facilities of computers, download so the procedure you describe to download windows from the internet links will not help me.  I don't have anyone who could borrow me a cd of windows.  So my only option is to find where I can buy a full commercial copy to do a clean install.  Amazon only offers oem versions and I don't know how to do the installation which is supposed to be done in a new computer.  Mine is old and already had a windows operating system that unfortunately crashed before that I made a backup of the system.

    Sort of, I really appreciate your help. Best regards.

    It is understandable that the download and make your own disks can become a daunting task.

    There is no need to buy a new edition of the sales at retail.

    There are still two other suggestions I gave you and the restore partition method:

    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.

    It is regrettable that none of your friends have this DVD but if you happen to meet a friend or co-worker who is one that you can borrow and use a DVD of Microsoft Vista, 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
