  Hello

  The Windows 8.1 does not require driver external webcam.
  Usually, the webcam driver is part of the Win 8.1 system and so the webcam should be recognized automatically.

  To my knowledge, the webcam is connected to the USB controller. You have a few unknown devices (USB devices) in Device Manager with yellow exclamation?

  By the way: you would update the BIOS to the latest State and system of Toshiba driver to win 8.1 installed?

  I installed Windows 7 Pro to Vista Home Prem Edition.  Back up my HARD drive with the included HP software.  Now I can't get my info on the HARD drive.  When I try to open the computer file backup says msvcr71.dll is missing.  How to install and where?

  Hi dezertdawg,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  Msvcr71.dll errors are caused by situations that lead to the removal or corruption of the msvcr71 DLL file. In some cases, the msvcr71.dll errors might indicate a
  problem of registry, a virus or malware problem, or even a hardware failure.

  You can use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to ensure that the system files are intact and replace the file. Follow these steps:

  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

  2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

  3. at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:

  The last update my computer (Vista Home Basic) tried to download and install is the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 86...

  Hello

  My personal opinion is that you buy a more recent machine as Vista Basic came on machines that have the material basis for it requirements.

  Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.

• Can I switch to Win 7 SP1 of Vista Home Basic (without Service Pack)?

  Hello, currently I run Vista home basic 32-bit without the service Pack installed. I did once try and install but I got was a never-ending startup sequence (the BONES do not start) and I had to restore a backup copy of previous Vista before installing SP1. So it's just a quick question: can I go directly to Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1 without having all the service packs currently? I don't have a lot of free time to do a clean install and restore programs and games, and configure them.

  Microsoft recommends that you have at least Service Pack 1 installed.

  You can try to install without MS, if you wish.

  And if you have a problem, follow this information.

  Click Start > right click on computer > left click on properties > see if you have Vista 32 bit or Vista 64-bit installed.

  Then, choose the download of 'bit' OK to use to install Service Packs, first of all the installation of SP1.

• Win Vista Home Basic product key is not valid

  I bought Vista Home Basic a wile ago. Now I've updated it. I want to reformat my PC, so I insert the DVD of Vista, and when I enter my product key I get the message "the key is incorrect. How can I fix it, I need to remove the updates or something?

  Hi cheater39,

  If you reinstall Vista you will have to update any new. If the operating system works very well, so it is useless to re - install in order to re - install. Once, re - install if you have multiple problems that can easily be corrected, and then reinstall is a "last" resort option

  You say you bought Vista Home Basic. I suppose, therefore, that you went into a store and bought a full retail copy? If so, the product key number is on the case. If you bought it from another source, for example, Internet, ebay etc (except direct from Microsoft) then you know that it's a genuine product key and not a copy hacked?

  It is in fact a copy of 'upgrade '? If so you need to install your "old" operating system first, for example, Windows XP and upgrade then.

  Check and recheck the code product key that you insert. If it continues to say the key is not valid, resume the DVD in the store that you bought it and ask them to check it for you. You can also contact the Microsoft Customer service in your own country - you should find one address number and/or e-mail on the Microsoft Web site.

  You can actually install Vista without product key by simply letting the dialog box empty product key and then pressing the next button. A message will appear in which you must press the No button. A list of the versions of Vista should then appear. Select the version that you have, for example, Vista Home Basic, press Next, then it should install. No you get away without putting the product key in. Although Windows Vista has been installed it works for a while, but it would give you time, we hope, sort out the product key number. After that the time scheduled (30 days I think) you will need to enter the correct product key otherwise Vista will simply stop working. This option is not ideal, but it will give you as small period of "grace." If you cannot sort the product key on or, heaven forbid, you ended up buying a pirated copy, you will have no real alternative but to buy another legitimate copy.

  I suggest you use my last suggestion as a "last resort" option Try to install on another machine to see if the product key works, or taking it back to the shop and ask them why it won't install.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

• laptop redesigned; now, Vista Home Basic Upgrade to Vista Home Premium is disabled.

  3.27.10 I looked at in the previous questions and nothing precisely meets my situation. My laptop was bought with Home Basic. Later, I bought Anytime Upgrade Pack from the microsoft site. It installed fine. THEN my cell phone got reimagee when the service was necessary. The reimage took back me to Vista Home Basic. Whenever I try to upgrade to Hom Premium, the choice to install is DISABLED. Only offers the option of Kiss of death to reinstall and lose everything on computer. This is so NOT what I want. Please help me to get what I paid for work again... I really, really miss. Thanks, JMS

  Check the Service Pack levels.

  Read the General information below about:

  Looking for a difference in numbers/Service Pack levels.

  If Service Packs came pre-installed on the operating system, there is no way to uninstall them.
  You will need to swap the disk to upgrade to a later version that includes the missing Service Pack.

  On your installed operating system Service Pack level cannot be greater than what is on the disk to upgrade.

  Click Start > right click on computer > properties > system > it will tell you which SP you have installed.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/948537

  "How to uninstall Windows Vista service packs"

  If the OS installed Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 1 upgrade disk > uninstall SP2 installed operating system > install the upgrade > reinstall SP2.

  And run the upgrade of a Vista operating system.

  32-bit to 64-bit and 64-bit to 32-bit is a clean install, not an upgrade, if you have different versions of ILO.

  Hello world! had a doubt: I plan to upgrade my Vista Home Basic to Home Premium 7, but I don't know if my computer will work as smooth as Vista. My system has achieved:

  • 2 GB OF RAM
  • NVidia GeForce 9500 GT (it will work very well. I think)
  • 250 GB HARD drive (well, it's like 230 GB)
  • Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 1.8 GHz per CPU
  • Everything except Office 2010 (Beta) and games very sophisticated (not Internet because I don't want to get viruses)

  My big problem is the games. I like to play great games like Assassin's Creed and Crysis, which move more great on Vista. I don't know if they will work as good as sound in Windows 7. Also, I would like to know the reqs. recommended for this system. Please answer!

  Depends entirely on what games they are. It is likely that some will be
