• Update Vista Home Basic to Premium Edition Office to allow access by laptop running Windows 7

  Could someone please advise if I have Vista Home basic desktop Home Premium so I can use laptop running preloaded Windows 7 Office Access? I saw advice that W7 can only comm if Office Home basic is updated! If PORTABLE PERFORMER pre-installed w7 MAY ACCESS DESKTOP. Is this possible and how?

  You can move from Home Basic to Home Premium, but Microsoft sells more than Vista.  You need to find a copy of retail, Vista Home Premium (not OEM) somewhere like eBay.  You can use either a copy of the upgrade or full license to do the upgrade.  eHow has an article on the actual upgrade process.

  http://www.ehow.com/how_6297506_upgrade-Vista-Home-Basic-Premium.html

  The article mentions that you need some version of upgrade, but they speak the old Anytime Upgrade which is no longer available.  Ignore this.

  Read this info and see if it applies to you:

  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.

• Live365 program plays more stations in Windows Media Center (the two MCE 2005 on XP and Vista Home Premium version).

  When you select any Live365 station, just have a beep. Three different computers with the same problem (XP and Vista). However, all 3 have IE8 with the same default security settings. I also contacted Live365 support for the resolution and waiting for their response. Live365 is working on other media, just not Windows Media Center PC or extender readers.

  Thought I'd share some good news, instead of a few problems.

  A month ago, Live 365 in Windows Media Center started working again on all my computers (Vista and XP). Don't know if it's a windows update, or an update of the app live365. But whatever the fix was, thank YOU!

• Code 646 error when updated Vista Home for my Office Home and Student 2007 for KB976321.

  I have Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2.  System type 32-bit operating system.  KB976321 will not update.  I have Office home and Student 2007.  Any suggestions?

  Once from time to time, you must manually install the patches.  Have you tried to download and run the patch manually (without using Windows Update)?

  If not, you can download the patch here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=160ad53e-6475-4550-90c2-444e4abea730.  Clickk download and then run.  You must accept the agreement, then click on continue.  After installing, restart Microsoft Update and click find updates.  If all goes well, it will show that you are completely patched.

  If this does not work, try to run the Microsoft OneCare safety scanner.  Sometimes it will solve problems of hidden registry, or can clear the virus that can prevent the installation of the patches: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm. Click full service scan, and then Quick scan (full scan takes a long time to complete). Try the patches.
