Hello Brent1969,

Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.

Sorry to hear you are having a problem with this and I understand your frustration.

Try the following steps:

Yes, it is important to update.  No, your speed is determined by your ISP, your computer processing speed, memory and the character properly in your computer and disks.

This should solve your problem.

Let us know if these steps solve your problem.  I hope the information is useful.

Kind regards

  • where can I download windows 7 premium or ultimate edition in order to update my windows vista basic

    I have the product key for my Windows Vista Basic Home Edition;  but I can not find windows 7 premium or ultimate edition to download and upgrade my windows vista computer.  I am looking in the Microsoft page and I can't find the Advisor to upgrade windos I have laready run. Now I need a direction to download windows 7 anyone can help me?

    Thanks in advance

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

    Any idea?

    Hmm... it's strange?  :|

    The ACPI from Toshiba x 64 compatible driver certainly means a 64-bit version!

    I put t know why Vista driver update notification indicates a 64-bit to a 32 bit OS driver, but usually the 64-bit driver should not be compatible with the 32 bit OS.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. (No, Symantec Support never say this.) See if the following solves your problems:

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) via Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of the 2010 version of your Norton application, using your product ID & reboot: http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    TIP: Do not activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate until you get a prompt "no update more".

    8 test cycle.

    NB: Your Norton application can disable Windows Defender by default.

  • Installation of Windows Vista Basic 32-bit

    Hello, I try to install windows vista basic 32 bit edition on an old laptop. He had originally windows vista basic 32-bit edition.

    I have the windows install key.

    The laptop's hard drive was fried and I do not make a backup of the operating system, also, he came with a "factory default disk" or the windows recovery disk.

    It came with a windows anytime upgrade disc ' ", he said can repair a current installation of windows, or install the operating system.

    Hard drive, I have currently in there has a version of vista business and the timer is exhausted, there also some conflicts pilot being that the hard drive has come to a laptop different and some aspects of drivers and other software refuse to be deleted.

    My question would be: can I install windows vista basic 32 bit with the disk at any time to upgrade, if yes how?

    Thank you

    I discovered that you can indeed install windows with the upgrade disk.

    My laptop is now in good working condition.

  • Windows Vista Basic colors - no option to change the colors?

    If I open the appearance settings I have the option to select a color scheme, like that I use which is Windows Vista Basic color scheme. However there seems to be no way to change the colors of the regime. I want to change default bluish tints to something different. If I hit the Advanced button, it has a clunky menu to change the color of windows, fonts, and other. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. I changed the colors, but they do not apply in all cases and I'm still stuck with the blue wire.

    What is going on? Is easier to change the colors of the window? It makes no sense to me.

    Thank you
