The Vista is better than Windows XP Home edition?
Hello
I installed vista, but is not supported & is unlikely to be the main programs I want to use with it! Is it because Vista is new, or Windows XP Home edition (which he runs under) is a better OS.
I read on the forum that WXP can be used in another partition. This would cause a problem? How would be affected other things like access to internet or e-mail if I used it in a partition?
Need help please, I'm lost and want to know the best thing to do.
Thank you.
Hello
Vista should be better than XP, but now many 3rd-party devices and programs are not compatible with Vista and therefore it s advisable to use two BONES; XP and Vista.
You can install the two OS s separately on two partitions.
This should work.
With regard to the reception of the email: Please check where the e-mails are stored.
Especially as Outlook e-mail applications use a same folder of installation on the partition for saving e-mail. But the path can be changed in the settings somewhere.
A few words about Vista. As you probably n t know the needs of Vista a lot more material resources such as other early BONE. You will need a really fast and high performance for laptop or desktop PC to use all the features of Vista. I'm talking about the Aero glass effects, etc.

Original title: USB MTP driver failure
Try to connect my Asus Transformer Tf101 tablet to my laptop Windows 7 Home premium, but the driver USB MTP failed guard. I downloaded and tried the Asus USB MTP driver, who was able, as a DPW Universal USB driver, which didn't do too well. Installed Windows Media Player and update at 12, did not help. With the umdf pre-release of windows 8, which is not done. I am continually getting error code 10 (device cannot start) no matter what I try.
Finally managed to test another cable and my Tablet has been able to connect. I don't know why my cable stopped working, but I guess I'll just get a new cable. Thank you for your time.

Can I install windows vista in my computer Windows XP Home Edition sp1?
Hey, I got a computer with Windows XP Edition sp1 family and I tried to install software that requires you to have at least service pack 3 but for some reason I can't do it. I really need help
Hello BerthaRuiz Meza,
If your copy of XP SP1 installed account why not have not you updated to SP3? You can download a full copy of SP3 and install it following the instructions on my site: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org/how_can_i_download_full_copy_xpsp3.html
There is no reason why you can not install a copy of Vista on your computer, however, you must decide if you want to uninstall XP and install Vista (fine if you have a retail copy of vista) or create a system dual boot whereby you can boot into XP or Vista. You will need a commercial version of the DVD as a copy OEM (one provided by the manufacturer of your PC will be linked to the original machine and will not work if moved to another machine.)
This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

Equium L40 - 17 M - restoration of the BIOS for Windows Vista to Windows XP Home edition
I have an Equium L40 - 17 M on Vista... I tried Dban it and install WXP top...
I try to Dban my TOSHIBA SATA hard drive that came standard with my laptop
But Dban won't work for 5 seconds
Then I just tried to install Windows XP Home edition on the D: drive and it loaded in all the file system then stops and says that it cannot find and hard drive for corn on...
I also ran seagate daignosts tool to see if it was just my hard drive. But it passes all the tests.I rang a maintence mobile place... and they said that's not the hard drive... It's the BIOS.
They said I need to get a cancellation of BIOS and drivers WXP chipset for my laptop.
Then run the BIOS and then install Windows XP Home edition and they said it will ask for the chipset.Can anyone shed some light on this... I'm not sure
Thank you
Hello Joe
On this forum, you will find hundreds of discussions on installation of Windows XP Home edition on the new models of laptops running Vista.
Please look a little around with search option. If you still need assistance please let me know I'll try to help. -
The product key for my Windows XP Home Edition is: XXXX-deleted-XXXX. While working in the PC, I get a MESSAGE"blingin on-screen ' OSB LOCKED: I want to know how to stop the message often displayed blinging."
My second question is can I upgrade my system Windows Vista freely.
My Hotmail ID of single widows is: [redacted]
Rigaut
First of all - do not post in a public forum product keys.
Second - "OSB LOCKED"... Of course you did not mean "OSD LOCKED? (a 'd' and not a 'B'...)
OSD is the "On Screen Display" and has nothing to do with what version of Windows you have - but with yor monitor. Look here:
http://www.thefakegeek.com/2009/04/how-to-unlock-an-OSD-lockout-problem/
http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/other-desktop-PC-questions/OSD-locked/TD-p/40291Last - is impossible to freely pass your system to Windows Vista. Windows Vista is a product different from Windows XP and you will need to obtain a license.

While the installation of Microsoft DirectX 9.0 c on my Windows XP Home Edition (Version 2002) operating system (not sure if the 2002 version in it's original state included SP1), EULA (EULA) provided the contract included a paragraph stating that "ONLY in regards to THE VIRTUAL MACHINE MICROSOFT FOR JAVA, YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED to INSTALL THIS OS COMPONENT ON A MACHINE THAT CONTAINS A ALREADY the VERSION OF THE MICROSOFT JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE". Assuming that the MSJVM was included with Windows XP Home Edition (Version 2002), I advanced and accepted the EULA. I then downloaded and installed Windows XP SP2 and SP3, but wasn't sure whether SP2 and SP3 removed the MSJVM in any point. However, research on the question, I discovered the site "FAQ of Transition MSJVM" (updated May 7, 2004), who answered the question: ' if I install Windows XP SP1a or later, it will remove my current MSJVM? " with "No, the operating system upgrade will not remove a MSJVM existing on the computer" (http://www.microsoft.com/about/legal/en/us/interoperability/java/faq.aspx). However, I can't find any instance of it on my computer.
So my questions are:
- Windows XP Home (Version 2002) Edition include SP1?
- The MSJVM is installed on this version?
- SP2 or SP3 removes the MSJVM in any point to?
Hi Chris,
Your Windows XP question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the forum TechNet for assistance:

MS offers windows XP Professional free for customers windows XP Home Edition?
MY PC in the year 2002 came with windows XP Home Edition? But it was much slower compared to windows XP Professional. Many users for win XP prof especially pyrated version. PL Council MS will offer win XP Professional without cost or at a price of offordable?
There is actually no difference in speed between XP Home and XP Pro on a system clean and well-maintained, with adequate equipment. XP Pro can still be bought on Amazon, and perhaps other places. Looking right now, I see a full retail XP Pro on Amazon for $259. I would stay away from eBay and Craig's list for this sort of thing.
No, XP Pro is not available for free from Microsoft.
A better option would be for you to discover why your XP Home is slow instead.
Some reasons for the slow pace of the computer:
1. computer has not been maintained - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Maintenance
2. the computer is infected with the malware - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware
3. the disk is too full. Remove useless stuff, uninstall unused programs. Do not forget to save!
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Backing_Up4. flaky third party software. Toolbars and modules are particularly guilty in this area. Uninstall toolbars (Google, Yahoo, ISP brand, etc) and look at what modules are in use in your browser (s).
5. computer has too many unnecessary programs/processes running in the background. Manage your Startup:
For XP - How to troubleshoot using the Msconfig in Windows XP utility - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560
The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspxFor Vista/Windows7 - Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '. Autoruns is also very useful.
6. the user runs an inflated/invasive such as Norton and McAfee antivirus program. Replace it with a better program. I recommend NOD32 (commercial) or Avast (free). Avira is also good, but the free version has an unpleasant reminder screen (Google for instructions on how to disable it). The user can also run several real-time antivirus/firewall/security programs.
7. the user has installed new programs that are processor and/or memory-intensive (Photoshop, AutoCAD, Mathmatica or similar) and does not have the power of the equipment.
8 drive fails and is in PIO Mode. It's very much slow (like being in 1985). See Hans-Georg Michna here information - http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10
In addition to the above, see also http://miekiemoes.blogspot.com/2008/02/help-my-computer-is-slow.html
Note: If the computer has always been slow, in addition to the above user may have bought a machine with a less powerful processor and not enough RAM (memory). The normal use of the computer, 512 MB to 1 GB is sufficient for XP; Vista should have a minimum of 2 GB; Windows 7 is less demanding than Vista, but the minimum of 2 GB should also be used.
