Unable to install Windows Vista, the system freezes at copying files and the extension of the files
Original title: Setup error
So I installed window vista Ultimate edition on my Mac, like two windows. I backed up all of my hard drives. so when I started to install everything went well until when it came in part from extension of files and copy files to the * something *. After like 20 minutes I had this error saying could not complete the installation because of corrupted files or something and then he is out. I tried homebasic, home premium etc. but I received an error even for each other. I went to the dealer where I bought the cd, returned and got another but still have the same thing
Hello
· What are your system specs?
· How you try to install windows vista on the system? After the start of the desktop?
· What is the exact error message that you experience when the system hangs during the installation?
I suggest you to disconnect all external devices that are connected to the system such as (printers, scanners, etc.) and see if the problem is resolved.
This occurs mainly, if the system (hardware or software) is not compatible with the operating system that you are trying to install on the system. I suggest you to format the partition in which you try to install Windows Vista, and then check if you are able to install the operating system or not.

Hi, I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (dell insparon) 1525 and now my wireless does not work. ive tried re installing driver, but it says operating system not supported. I used the disc that came with the computer of the re install and I even tried to install service pack 1. .
original title: Wireless problems after install.I just tried both, the dell is one that says OS not supported"and the intel, it went very well, but my 'network controller' still have a yellow top thing in Device Manager. and I always wireless. any other ideas? Thank you for the help
Question... You have whatever it is listed in the "Network adapters" section of "Device Manager" now?
While ensuring that the exclamation point is not for your wired network device (plausible) or bluetooth (plausible) and you just need to configure your wireless network to connect to * your * wireless network now.
You may have to contact Dell to see why none of their drivers receive your wireless device works on the original operating system, what they included. This could be a hardware problem PURE.

You, I noticed there are some files like programs program then theres (86) below I see only in a few different places, as well as many files sent a text message if they are from my old program as if they never got deleted or formatted.
Thanks for listening
Hello
· Did you do a clean install of Windows Vista without formatting?
· How many letters pilot are there on the system, for example C:\, D:\?
· The number of records your C:\ drive?
Open C:\ drive and select all the files that are present and check what size is (of all files). Let us know the size.
If you did a clean installation without formatting then, it may be a folder named windows.old. If you have the folder on the system, then follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

New hard drive try to install Windows vista, but it keep suspended after 60% collapsed I tried a few time every time I had to wait for 5 hours, but the same thing happen again and again can help you pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase
Monastir,
What happens when it stops it is have a Sata driver. It is on the drivers cd you received with your computer. You can also start the computer and press F2 to enter the bios. From there down to Configuration system - SATA Operation and change this to ATA. It is located to AHCI. Save the changes and restart the installation. Once you have loaded Windows and drivers installed, you will need to go back to AHCI.

Cannot install Windows Vista updated system preparation tool
I downloaded the update for Vista 32 bit system preparation tool, but when the program tries to install after initialization, the installation progress bar never appears, the installation seems to just "hang" and do nothing. I tried to cancel the installation, but the program seems stuck, I use the Task Manager to cancel the installation. I wonder why the tool cannot install on my PC after downloading.
Hi mlzla,
I hope you do well.
No, if you do an upgrade on the spot, you will lose any program. The on-site upgrade process will take around an hour or two. It is very useful.
I hope this information is useful.

I got Windows Vista, I forgot what operating system I had before, but I have a compaq computer and I used a Dell, Windows vista Home Premium 32-bit reinstall drive. Everyone is beautiful and running, but now my old Windows activation code is invalid, and I have two days until what activates it. Is there a way I can get help with this?
OEM recovery disks are valid only for the PC on which they were intended.
For what version and edition of WIndows the COmpaq is allowed, according to the COA sticker on the case?
You can order a set of recovery disks for HP/Compaq computer.

I'm install windows vista Ultimate edition in my new laptop, but during the installation stage 'completion', the prompt message as "Windows cannot configure one or more system components to install Windows, restart the computer, and restart the installation", but my new laptop was no install any OS before, please help
tan7655,
If I read this correctly, you have a portable computer that do not have an operating system on it. You try to install Vista and get the error.
You've restarted the Vista installation? So then you get the same error? If you have tried to install more than once and continue to receive this error, check that the laptop is capable of Vista? You may need to check with the manufacturer of the laptop to see if it is able to support Vista. Mike Microsoft responds to the technical support engineer

Genuine Windows clean install
Hello
I had a problem with my laptop Acer Extensa 5230th. It was not started and so I took for Matech computers. They diagnosed as having a mechanical drive problem. So they replaced the drive and installed a more recent version of windows vista on. Note: I haven't bought a new copy of vista family premium, he said he was going to reinstall vista. It had windows Vista Home Basic, it has installed vista Home premium and said that he had validated by call from windows, but I'm suspicious because I don't think you can use a base of windows key to validate Home premium! It means that he has put on an illegal version on windows or used the genuine key that came with the laptop.In addition, on computers of brands, if this happens again, how is a technician for legally to reinstall the original windows that it came with the new hard drive? How to install windows vista basic on the new hard drive by using the original key to make it genuine? What windows installation disc would you require? or is it easier to just buy a new copy of windows? I heard that many technicians, prefer to install illegal versions of cracking of windows instead of the customer to buy the new installation of windows.Kind regardsLewisHere are some utilities which displays product key Vista Matech used to activate Windows:

Original title: April 16 to restart my computer after installing Windows Vista upgrades, my office is now only 2 thirds of the screen, with the third other black
The whole office is there, but it is located in the Center, if the screen, with black bands at the top and bottom. By clicking full screen on the top right has no effect.
Hi Jeremy,.
Thanks a lot for your help. You're right, I should have said no upgrades and updates.There were a total of 10 updates:4 a security updates for Vista,1 security update for the Microsoft 2010 information access path,1 day of cumulative security for IE9.1 windows Live essential 20111 definition update Windows Defender (KB915597)1 "" for Office 2010 "1 April 2013 malware toolI uninstalled Windows Live Essentials. I felt that I should not uninstall the updates of security, and the Defender update can not be uninstalled. It made no difference.I also checked the graphics card and told me that I had the latest version of the software.Then I checked the configuration of the monitor and graphics card configuration and found I could set the configuration to full frame. I did it and now all is well again.How and why the full frame disappeared April 16 remains a mystery.Thank you very much for your information without your help I would have been unable to delve deeply into the system. I learned a lot. -
Re: Serial number down would work with the other Windows Vista operating system
First of all sorry for my English.
I have one question.My hard drive is broken with my recovery partition.
If I download windows vista and install the system with my original serial number on the laptop, this will work or should I activate it after installation.I hope it's the same number that the front is installed on my first installation.
Hello Marcin
I doubt that the serial number that is placed at the bottom of the device works with another Windows Vista operating system. But it s worth a try
You could test it I heard it's very rare cases it was possibleIn any case, if your HARD disk is damaged and it of not possible to create a recovery DVD using recovery software Toshiba disc creator, then you must contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
If the warranty is valid the HARD drive should be replaced just for free. If you need only the recovery DVDs, then you can order it here:
