• Problem of loss genuine window vista.

  I buyed a new CAREB labtop here in pakistan with a genuine windows vista installed in it, but unfortunately I don't know how I lost my windows and installed a non-windows xp genuine for now. My question is if I can get my windows vista real back now?

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  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.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making 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

• Failed to retrieve, I'm doing a full restore on my Windows Vista desktop

  I'm doing a full restore on my Windows Vista desktop. When I click Start on recovery management, another box appears called Microsoft .NET framework. I hit continue, but it won't allow me to clikc OK to start recovery... At the end of the box, it is said when JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box. Any suggestions?

  Hello

  These are the normal methods to use the process of recovery of the manufacturer:

  1. in a Vista operating system running, using the process of recovery of the manufacturer (Recovery Management, etc.), you use apparently.

  2. to start by pressing a particular key or set of keys (F10, F11, etc) according to the installer from the manufacturer...

  3. using the recovery disks provided, or the recovery discs that you made of their recovery Partition.

  If you cannot access or use one of these methods, you will need to ask for assistance from your computer manufacturer while the recovery process is installed by them, not by Microsoft.

  See you soon.

• Where are the "System Restore" files in Windows Vista Home Premium

  Method 2 : If the question does not exist in Mode safe mode then try to put your computer in a clean boot state.

  By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 3: If the problem persists, then try to run the Startup Repair tool.

  Startup Repair is a Windows Vista recovery tool that can fix certain problems, such as system files missing or damaged that may prevent Windows from starting correctly. When you run the Startup Repair, it scans your computer for the problem and then tries to fix it so that your computer can start correctly.

  I want to reinstall windows vista on my computer but I forgot my password to connect.  It comes to my personal computer.  I tried to insert the disc, but it will be without automatic operation even if the computer is restarted.  How can I get around this?

  If the computer does not display a toboot option from the DVD it starts, you need to enter in the BIOS as the machine starts up and change the setting for the first device to boot to the DVD player. Save the changes and exit. Now, return to paragraph 2 above.

  Press a few keys to access the BIOS varies according to the version of the BIOS. More frequent are: DEL or F2 or F10. On some machines you can press F12 instead, and it will take you directly to a boot menu.

  Good luck.

• Restoring files of Windows Vista does not work - I have tried many, many things. Help, please.

  Hello

  I did a windows vista upward from some directories of laptop for my ReadyNas Storeage via the network.  The backup is is about 8 times before the hard drive on the laptop crashed.  We are unable to recover the HARD disk for thought I would recover from the laptop.

  Here's the problem:

  I use Windows Restore - Advanced Restore to try to recover from the previous backup.  After some fiddling, I am able to see that the program of restoring Windows backup sets.  I'm trying to restore all files to their original location.  The restoration done some preparatory work and then get the error message: Restore did not complete successfully. Error code: 0x8100001A

  Here is what I tried:

  (1) find the original Mediaid.bin file and copy it to the root.
  (2) run the following process to rebuild the mediaid. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/itprovistaapps/thread/56f5ed9b-8722-4fa8-b1e9-9c17d7132feb.
  (3) have successfully used windows Explorer to extract a single file.  (backup stuff windows are stored in zip files).  Problem, this only works for files below a certain size because I don't know how to merge files voluminous back.
  (4) copied the backup set off the ReadyNas to a USB to load from there.  It worked only when the USB, I have shared on the network.
  (5) have shot a question at JustAnswers, but they have not as well.
  (6) tried to restore a previous backup set but also failed with the same error message.

  Any help would be welcome.
