Updates Vista Home Premiun

My last update of Vista was April 15, 2013 and the update says that Vista is up-to-date.  Updates have been coming up to several times a week.

I'm set for the automatic update and I often manually update.

What gives?  Are Vista updates yet issued?

Hello

Windows vista updates are still issued. Windows Update is a service provided by Microsoft that provides updates for the Microsoft Windows operating system and its installed components, including Internet Explorer.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    The driver signing Unsigned drivers can be used with 32-bit versions of Windows Vista. 64 bit versions of Windows Vista require that all device drivers be digitally signed by the developer.

    When I first bought Vista Ultimate it came with a contract for upgrading other systems to home premium so I did it on my laptop.  Installation of Home Premium is released the CD of Vista Ultimate.   Now I have 7 on my desktop and I would use the Vista Ultimate CD to upgrade my laptop Home Premium to Ultimate.  However, when it reads the PID and the entered Activation Code it will not allow an update: I am already current.  Is there a way to get around this without making a facility clean and rebuild again?

    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.

  • Vista Home Premiun Device Manager does not display my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive

    I recently tried to use my CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive and it did not work. It was working fine a few days previously but now... Nothing.

    My first reaction was to open Windows Explorer, expand and look at computer. There was my C drive and the recovery Partition but no Opitical drive more.
    Then I opened the Device Manager and saw that the CD was registered it is more as well?

    My question is

    Vista automatically removes the CD-ROM drive in the list of Device Manager if there is a problem with the drive itself?

    Or is there something that happened this suppression the CD-ROM in Device Manager list and it is not a problem with the drive itself?

    I had a disc go bad before on a PC running Windows 98 and 2000, but the disc stayed in the Manager list but I'm pretty new to Vista and know things are very different. So before we get in panic Mode, I thought that it would be a good idea to ask where someone will know probably for sure.

    Thanks in advance for clues

    How to make a Vista system restore
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html

    -----------------------------------

    If no joy:

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  • Update Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium (the two 64-bit). 8 + hours and counting
