Unable to run Autocad R14 with Vista
"Autocad R14" works well with Windows XP on my old desktop computer - but does not run on Windows Vista on my new laptop Dell 1545 Inspron.
"MEM_BAD_POINTER" error message is received. When the error message is cancelled, the recursively readmitted «SmartHeap error handler» message
Hi Kenny,
Thanks for posting on the forums.
Review of Autocad R14 from Autocad R14 Windows Vista Compatibility Center is not on the list as being compatible with Vista.
You can try to run it in compatibility mode and see if you can make it work, otherwise you may have to upgrade to a newer version.
Make your old programs working again

Printer on Windows 7 PC, unable to connect with the laptop with Vista
I have a Lexmark 2600 Series printer on a Windows 7 32-bit computer. I am not able to connect to the printer with Vista laptop for my wife. I can share files and see the printer. I try to connect and I get "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Impossible operation completed (error 0x000003eb). "I tried to install locally and change the path without success. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi Zyfot,
First of all, I would say that you add the printer on the vista computer and check.
1. open Printers by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, hardware and soundand then click Printers.
2. click on Add a printer.
3. in the Add Printer Wizard, select Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.
4. in the list of available printers, select the one you want to use, and then click Next. If your computer is connected to a network, only printers listed in Active Directory for your domain are displayed in the list.
5. If prompted, install the printer driver on your computer. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
6. follow the steps in the wizard and then click Finish.Install a printer on a home network

2. double-click on Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
3. right click on the print spooler service, and then click Properties.

5. If the service is not already running, under Service status, click Startand then click OK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.I hope this helps!

The files you have are from Microsoft Works since they. WPS file extensions.
You have Office installed? If so, which version?
If you have Office 2003 or 2007 or Word 2003 or Word 2007

Unable to connect to a wireless network with Dell Inspiron 1525 with Vista
I set up a wireless about a week ago and have done with the following security features: WEP, activate only certain MAC address to connect and disabled to broadcast the SSID. I was able to use it very well with my Mac computer using the airport, but when I tried to connect my roommates, a dell inspiron 1525 with vista computer, it can not connect. I can locate the network but when I try to connect to the network, I get a message saying that for a Windows cannot connect to the network and that the wireless link has failed for unknown reasons. He then said to contact your administrator, but it's me. I have a basic knowledge of computers just enough to be dangerous and basically know what I'm going along. If anyone has any advice for me, my roommate and I'll be very grateful.
Thank you
-Jill
Too bad. Apparently, I got the wrong MAC address. I am now connected.

How can I solve this problem and have my admin and my user appear in the directory? My hard drive went out on me on my other computer, so I tried to slaves in the top of the tower. All other folders appear in my directory, but not users. There are default user on this subject. Can I use a data recovery software, but it will take a day and a half to get the files. I ran the program of restoration of data for a few hours and it has recovered some of the pictures I want. So I try to see if I'm doing something wrong, before investing in the recovery of the entire file. Thank you.

Hi, I have an Acer laptop Aspire with Vista Home Basic Edition that came pre-installed, so no records only the disk hard drive partition.
I turned on my laptop today and it starts but the loading bar of stalls at the black screen with "(c) Microsoft Corporation" and dragging green. The slide bar will continue to drag, but nothing else happens which means that I understand even as much as the login screen. I rebooted and tried Windows recovery, but the only remedy to what he suggests is a restoration of the system, which does not have any point, I try to restore it.
To remedy this, I have connected in safe mode and ran the SFC command prompt. It scans my system and told to find corrupted files, but he can't heal some. This is where my knowledge limit runs out. I don't know how to fix the files that the SFC cannot. (Also I created a journal using the findstr command prompt and checked but it say anywhere that it was unable to fix it so I'm not even sure how to identify corrupted files)
As it's an Acer laptop, Aspire I'll try their eRecovery tool to return my computer to factory settings, but it won't work in safe mode, and as I said I can not connect normally. I tried alt and F10 at the initial boot screen when I turn on, it loads the windows files and shows the Acer "Please wait a moment" screen and then nothing happens again.
I can't afford to get it fixed, and there is no chance I can get a new laptop. Any ideas/help? Thank you.
