  Hi John McAvoy,.

  (1) since when are you facing this problem?

  (2) you get an error message?

  I want to clarify if this happens when you start Windows after logging in or before opening a session on windows.

  Method 1: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...) Except the mouse and keyboard > restart the computer and check

  If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue.  Then get any drivers\software update for the device.
  

  Thanks and greetings

• Bluetooth doesn't work does not correctly after the installation of Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 (SP2) on Dell laptop

  I searched this forum and almost all resources on the net for days now nothing works.  Give the message to a thread more appropriate that I couldn't find one that is truly representative and am a newb at this.

  Summary of the problem: Bluetooth connectivity does not work properly after the window Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 and 2 installation (SP 1 and 2).

  My system:

  Laptop Dell Inspiron E1705, 32-bit Winows Vista Home Premium SP2, Dell Wireless Bluetooth 355 Module + EDR 2.0

  * My system was purchased in 2006 with Windows XP, but was not entitled to a free Windows Vista Home Premium Upgrade I did. I installed Windows Service Pack 1 and 2 about a week ago.

  Problem: After downloading and installing the Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 and 2 (SP 1 and 2), my system does not recognize my Bluetooth (a touch of Sprint also) device known as the HTC Vogue.  I stress that I have not had any problems with this device before downloads.  I can't revert to the pre - SP State 1 and 2 because my system restore does not have these points more.

  I have read several posts on various sites about people having similar problems with Bluetooth connectivity after the Vista SP 1 and 2 facilities.  The problem is obviously the need for an updated driver.  I went to the site to download driver Dell and the Blueooth only updates available are the following. (Note: these drivers all date from 2006 and 2007).

  http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=RC956904&l=en&s=pub&SystemID=INS_PNT_P4_9400&os=WLH&osl=en&servicetag=&catid=-1&impid=-1&deviceid=12084&libid=5&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&releaseid=R159805&formatcnt=1&vercnt=1

  I had these installed before the SP 1 and 2 have been installed and they worked very well. After the upgrade, these drivers do not work.  They won't recognise BT devices.  I tried to upgrade the drivers by using update Broadcom suggested below it, but an error of following installation to contact Dell.

  http://www.Broadcom.com/support/Bluetooth/update.php

  I contacted Dell via e-mail and on the phone, but they want to charge me $60 for a one time service call just to talk about the problem because my warranty has expired. Provide updated drivers is not a problem of security in my opinion.  Even after explaining the situation, their continuous support to just send me the link to download Driver Dell above with out-of-date drivers.  I guess that's what they are charged to do, they do not have to admit a problem of compatibility.  This obviously the same link they would charge $60 to send.  I explained that I need just a Bluetooth Driver from Dell to at least version 6.3.   Needless to say, I will never buy another Dell product.

  On my end, I tried to uninstall my current drivers and then by installing a newer driver to support Gateway (Version 6.2.1.500 for and Acer).  This allows me to install some parts of this update and the update Broadcom. However, it is not a perfect installation and expires after about 90% saying "this update is not for this system" because it is the gateway not Dell to be provided.  Displays the version of the driver on my computer is Version 6.3.5.430 after doing this, but it is not a complete installation and some features are not available.

  Does anyone have experience with this issue? I would like to have a link with some bluetooth drivers generic Version 6.3 type which will allow me to use the Broadcom link to upgrade to the last version that works with Vista SP 1 and 2.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  Do a clean install of XP with the XP disk provided by Dell, if you.

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/OperatingSystems/SS/instxpclean1.htm

  If you do not have your XP disk, you can contact Dell and ask them to send you a XP disc.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the order of startup and startup disk:

  Vista installation was able to destroy this option of relocation:

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall XP back 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)

  A Dell must rely on Ctrl + F11 at STARTUP to reinstall XP

• Installation service Windows Vista stop working

  I'm running a Dell XPS ONE 2010 with Vista Home Premium SP2 2009.  About two years ago, I noticed that Windows Installer has stop working and I could not install Microsoft programs or uninstall most programs, was able to load 3rd programs like Turbotax, but could not uninstall them.  I bought a Microsoft Expression Web software and had to pay MS $100 to load.  MS uninstalled Office 2007, cleaned Windows, install Expression Web and reinstalled Office 2007.  When Ms. Load Expression Web, they advised me to use Revo Uninstaller which may be required to work. because the normal MS uninstaller does not work I can not install any MS programs like the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor or other software from Ms.  When installed MS Expression Web, they said that they could not fix the failure of the installer without a custom reinstall of Vista, I chose not to.  Strangely, the MS Windows updates work fine.

  In the last three months, I have read and tried all of the suggestions of MS to fix this problem without success.  The installation failure message is "the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed.  This can occur if Windows Installer is not correctly installed... »

  Now I want to install new software to create a web site, but it will not be installed.  I bought the Windows 7 Upgrade Home Premium package but it fails with the message of my computer is not compatible with Windows 7.  I suspect that the upgrade fails because the installation Service fails.
  I don't want to do a custom installation of Windows 7 because of the work required to reinstall all my software.
  Any recommendations for restoring the installation Service will be appreciated, if this isn't the right forum for this problem, please let me know.

• SFC scan reports sidebar.ini and source file as a corrupted file even after the installation of WIndows Vista repair.

  Hey, I'm Ryan.
  I am running windows vista 32 bit and I get 2 files corrupted when I run SFC - they relate to the windows sidebar (sidebar.ini and store source file is also corrupted). I did a repair installation, and this always happens when I run the SFC.

  1 - is this going to cause any problems to my laptop if I leave it alone?
  2 could it be related to a virus?
  I'm sorry for the questions, but I'm confused as to how this happened... Any help would be appreciated.
  Thank you very much.

  1 NO.

  2 NO.

  This SFC message could be caused by the manufacturer of the computer adding gadgets to the sidebar before installation of Windows for you, or some other change to the sidebar gadgets

• The installer of Windows Vista is not allowing to install or uninstall programs and my laptop came not with a CD/DVD installation, what to do?

  A few days ago I had some problems playing Halo 2. The program itself has suggested that I have reinstall. So, I uninstalled Halo 2 without incident. However, during my attempt to reinstall Halo 2, I received the following Message: redists\vcredist, msi: the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not correctly. Contact your support team. Click Retry to try to complete the step failed, or click Cancel to cancel the installation.

  An error occurred when copying files in the background. An unexpected error has occurred while the application was copy files to your computer. Please try to reinstall the game, or contact customer support if that does not solve the problem.
  After contact with the teams of tech games Halo wasn't any help, solution phone a 1-888-xxx-xxxx, a refund of my game. I am bypassing the conversation that happened because the individual basically blew me off the coast. Run the verification tool file system, basically said that I had a corrupted file, and you run the recovery tool. I did this, but without success. I tried to research on issues such as the best of what I know how, only to discover that I need to use the Setup Windows Vista Home Premium CD/DVD. This is another problem. When my wife bought this laptop, she received only a couple of recovery disks. So with my limited resources, I'm in this river with pots of Earth on one side and on the other hippos and and a thumb in a plum for a paddle.
  I am in great need of a useful solution.

• "Not enough space" error windows install during the installation of Windows vista SP2 software

  Original title - cannot install Windows Installer 3.1 on Windows Vista Home Edition

  I use windows vista home with service pack 2 installed. I have a custom made software. Before installing this software, I need to install 4 i.e. cystal reports, dotnet, report viewer and Windows Installer 3. I was able to install the first 3, but the windows installer fails, it is said to be "saturated". I also tried MSI 4.5 but of no use. My software runs well on Windows XP. The interesting thing is that I return this software a year and I installed it on vista and it worked fine. Now I have re-installed windows vista on my computer and had updated. Now this problem. Could there be a reason why some update to windows vista, I installed now wasn't there last year that causes the problem. Can anyone help.

  Hi tbilal22

  
  Windows Installer 4.5 comes pre-installed with Windows Vista and Windows Vista SP1. Please refer to the article for more information-

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/942288

   

  It is possible that the old software, it is not compatible to be used with Windows Vista SP2. I suggest you try software installation by using the Windows Vista or XP on Windows Vists SP2 compatibility mode and check if you are able to solve the problem.

  Compatibility mode is used if a program written for an earlier version of Windows does not work properly. Then, you can use the program compatibility Wizard to change the compatibility of the program settings. To manually change the settings of a program, use the individual program's compatibility tab

  You can check the link for assistance on compatibility mode - mentioned below

• The installer for Windows Vista is wrong...

  I was recently given an old "Lenovo Thinkpad SL500' with a failing HARD drive.  On the Palm of the laptop is Windows label that reads "Windows Vista Basic". I put in a disc of Windows Vista (x 86 version) and windows load, and to enter the serial number, it starts to install "Windows Vista Business" (perhaps the original owner updated the version of windows). At the end of installation, I go to activate and I like that it's the wrong version of windows for the serial number, hmmm... !  Think it should have been the version 64-bit (x 64), I perform the re - install, once again tell them he set up "Windows Vista Business" (64-bit version). Still, I get the same error message when you try to activate.

  Time to cheat, I re - install again, but don't get me the serial number, which then gives the option to select the version of vista to install, this time I select Vista Basic (32-bit and 64-bit later). Windows installed twice and both times it fails to activate, this time with the error "Enter a different product for activation key", and Yes, I type in the serial number from the label (which windows it is was brought off the coast of the COA), still with no success.

  Is it possible to say that Windows belongs to my serial number, or is it possible that the previous owner upgraded to a version of Windows 7 and changed the COA. ??

  Vista OEM integrators of systems and DVD retail are the same both contain the files for the editions of Vista that you mentioned, and that is the PK that determines which edition is installed.

  Unfortunately, there is no list to check a PK hand to see which edition it corresponds to the.

  Lenovo are those who need to check with as to what is preinstalled on it.

  Here is their information on it:
