• How/where can I find the platform for Windows Vista (KB971644) update and download it?

  I am trying to download Windows Live, but I get the message that I need to update platform for Windows Vista (KB971644)

  I need to find a download site for this update, all I get is a run around using different sites but no download.

  It must be downloaded by Windows Update. Service Pack 2 must be installed as a prerequisite.

  Look at the history of update for updates failed which can block it.

  There are four parts of the update of the platform, each with a separate download. Follow the link for your version of Vista in the following articles:

• With the help of Windows Vista Edition family and unable to connect to the Netgear router.

  No matter what patches I try, I still, I get a message error "settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network. Two other latops under Xp and Windows 7 connect perfectly.  The user called Geeksquad who told him it was the router. Replaced the router and the same issue. This default laptopp local only access point. Fix regedit for broadcast and Fixit file downloaded here have not solved the problem. Have you tried to push the direct connection button on the router, change the network connections settings... everything. Nothing works. Help, please! The user of this laptop is uber frustrated. I don't know what else to do.

  Geek Squad - use if you do not want necessarily fixed it - but you like overspending for no reason.

  Sounds like a bad driver/software.

  What is the wireless network device in the system in question (I hope that something like Intel...?)

  Is the latest software and drivers from the manufacturer of the device (don't not relying on Microsoft)?

  May need to remove all network components, reset it and install the latest drivers - and if you think Geek Squad would do that...  They could - if you get a child who loves really networking of their own things at home - but the odds are against it.

• I want to buy a desktop computer and sell the laptop without windows vista software. Is there a way I can install windows vista in my new office.

  Model F730 laptop and notebook product S/n CNF7415WH7

  No there is no way, how the do, because the license of Windows Vista is part of the computer compaq laptop - this is the license OEM - and cannot be separated.

  (in case the laptop is broken and cannot be repaired, then the license expiresand cannot be used on another computer)

  1. Put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
  2. Press a key when you are prompted.
  3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
  4. Click repair your computer.
  5. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  6. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
  7. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

  Note To start the computer from the Windows Vista DVD, the computer must be configured to start from the DVD drive. For more information on the configuration of the computer to start from the DVD drive, see the documentation provided with your computer or contact the computer manufacturer.

  Bootrec.exe options

  The Bootrec.exe tool supports the following options. Use the option that suits your situation.

  Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:

  • bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup
  • c:
  • Boot CD
  • BCD attrib s h - r
  • Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old
  • Bootrec /RebuildBcd

  / FixMbr

  The /FixMbr option writes a MBR compatible Windows Vista on the system partition. This option does not overwrite the existing partition table. Use this option when you need to solve problems of corruption of MBR, or when you need to remove the non-standard code from the MBR.

  / FixBoot

  The /FixBoot option writes a new boot sector on the system partition by using a boot sector that is compatible with Windows Vista. Use this option if one of the following conditions is met:

  • The boot sector has been replaced by a non-standard Windows Vista boot sector.
  • The boot sector is damaged.
  • An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after the installation of Windows Vista. In this scenario, the computer starts by using Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

  / ScanOs

  The /ScanOs option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. In addition, this option displays the entries that are currently not in the BCD store. Use this option when there are installations of Windows Vista which is not in the Boot Manager menu.

  / RebuildBcd

  The /RebuildBcd option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista. In addition, this option allows you to select the facilities you want to add to the BCD store. Use this option when you need to completely rebuild the BCD.

• I removed Windows Vista 32-bit and Windows Vista 64-bit installed, but when I enter the key it says the key is already in use. How can I fix it?

  I have Windows Vista Ultimate 32 and 64 bit edition

  I bought Windows Vista Ultimate 32 and 64 in a box in 2008, I installed the 32 edition because at the time I was told not all software will work with the edition 64 a month ago, I decided to windows 7 Ultimate Via Amazon purchase which proved be a copy of the counterfeit money and Amazon me has now repaid , so what I do, well I could buy another copy of windows 7 Ultimate or I could give the other Version of windows that came in the same box with a product key a go, so I removed and formatted the hard drive and reinstalled 64 bit version on my drive using the product key original that I used on the 32-bit Edition for four years and when I try to register the 64 bits edition, that is to say someone else using this product key, you will have to buy another key or a copy of windows 7. Well, I decided to wait until Windows 8 will be released, that's why I decided to try the Vista 64 - bit Edition?

  Or better yet, I might switch to a Mac OS x system?

  The answer is not to buy Windows 7 from a dealer on the market of Amazon.  Stick to Amazon itself.  Amazon Marketplace is as eBay and other auction sites and online delivery.  It is composed of persons whose practices sales are questionable.  You won't get counterfeit product from Amazon itself.

  You have to solve the problem with Vista 64-bit using phone activation.

  Activate by phone.  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736912 (WS.10) .aspx

  Or click Start and type ' slui.exe 4.

  Do not answer all prompts automatic until it asks you if you want to speak to an agent.

  If you continue to have problems with activation, run the MGADiag (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 ) tool

  Once downloaded, run the tool. Click on the button continue, after a short time, continue button will change to a copy button. Click the copy button in the tool (ignore the error at this stage) and then paste (with r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your message.

• 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
