• My CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.

  My readers Optiarc DVD - RW AD-7530 ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.
  Although of course, the CD-ROM drive worked during the upgrade.
  I noticed that when I turn firstly on the laptop, the last two lines of the front entry from Windows 7 are the following.
  PXE - E6i:Media Test Failure, Check Cable
  PXE - MOF: Exit PXE Rom
  During the audit of each Properties in Device Manager devices", I learned that they both work correctly.  In the list in the printers and the @Devices the only Webcam shown is also a "USB 2.0 Camera"
  Can someone help me please?
  Best regards
  John

  Besides what abdelhak says:

  The message of PXE boot that you receive when you start your computer has nothing to do with your CD/DVD-Rom drive. Your computer uses a PXE boot method to attempt to load Windows from a location on your network. Since you do not have this configuration, it is safe to ignore it. If it slows down the startup time of your system, contact your manufacturer and ask them for instructions on how to "disable PXE Network Boot of the BIOS.

  Hope this helps,

  Thank you! Ryan Thieman

  Firefox loads OK, but I'm unable to type in any field of research etc. or even to send this request (I use my desktop computer to send this).

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • Firefox 21.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will lose all personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  If you keep problems also create a new profile.

• Not to say could not upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional

  I pre-ordered Windows 7 months with no indication that I couldn't switch from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional without performing a new installation.  Now I learn that I have to re - install all THE programs, once I have perform this upgrade / 'clean install '.  All the criticism of Windows Vista pales in comparison to my irritation at says this news AFTER the purchase, and not before.  Failure of the installation of the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to note any problem.  All previous Windows upgrades went flawless.  Needless to say I am extremely disappointed by this turn events and we hope that Microsoft will improve its pre-purchase counseling in the future.

  I guess I have no choice now but to do a clean install of Windows 7 and then reinstall on my computer that will put me out of use for a long period of time?  I backed up the entire hard drive before trying to install, but I doubt I can get by simply restoring this backup.  Is this correct?

  Hi pwcushman,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

  Windows Live OneCare Backup works in stages. You start by setting up how you want Backup to run and save the configuration. The backup will then run according to schedule and backup your files according to the saved configuration. You can make changes to this list or add other files and folders.

  You can restore all files and folders, but you will have to reinstall all the programs.

• Upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional and I have a few questions?

  I'm about to upgrade to Windows Vista 32-bit to Windows 7 64 bit, but I'm very nervous (stupid - I know).  Currently I have Vista on a SATA internal hard drive, but is planning to install Windows 7 on my much bigger and 2nd inside SATA hard drive, which currently has no importance to this subject?

  1. Is it possible to install Windows 7 on an internal hard drive with Vista on another?  I have no intention to use Vista more so once Windows 7 installed will not need to keep if it is possible to do.
  2. Assuming that I can install Windows 7 on disk more while Vista is a smaller, I cause operational problems by removing Vista once Windows 7 has been wing not unhooked?
  3. Assuming the above is possible I will be able to "faithfully" copy/move/import (not sure of the method - help please) users existing file structure and data from the old files of user profiles of Vista on the smaller disk to the new files in user profiles Windows 7 on disk more nothing lose or create compatibility problems?
  4. If not, should I just stick with the installation of Windows 7 over Vista and use the larger 2nd disk to store users.  I chose this option will data being stored on the disc more to maintain its security between users.  That is, if Winodws 7 is intalled on the smaller C drive and I connect like me, can I keep my data of user on the 2nd drive internal more all ensuring that other users cannot access the data just by accessing the 2nd disc via "my computer"? I hope that makes sense!
  5. It is even possible to store data of the user safely on another drive to the operating system, but still maintain user security principals / separate secure?
  6. It is possible to install Windows 7 on the 2nd largest drive I can (before deleting Vista) user folders simply drag - move in new files of the user, I create in Windows 7 or is it more complicated than that.  (I'll try to find the simplest method to keep user files structures and existing Vista and import/copy/move data in new user profiles in the new operating system).

  Sorry for all the questions but the family counts on me to get it right.

  Show stopper, is that you can do a upgrade in place of a 32 bit OS (Vista in your case) to a 64-bit (Windows 7 64 bit) OS, you must perform an installation "Custom"and clean. "

  This means that you should backup your media files data external 9to) before starting and reinstall all of your applications after installing Windows 7 64 bit.

  Question: Did you buy an "Upgrade" version or the "full version" of Windows 7?

  Regarding the drive to use, either will work, but the procedure is different.

• After the upgrade from vista to win 7 can install vista on another system?

  I have an older system which will be an upgrade of vista, can I use my vista software and the key for the upgrade of the old system because I upgraded vista to win 7?

  If you have used the license system / operating of Vista as part of the Windows 7 upgrade process: No.

  You cannot use your Vista license anywhere else if it is part of the Windows 7 upgrade process.

• INSPIRON 545 o/s has been upgraded from Vista to Win 7 - can I update by running just two disks again to get a new computer?

  Hello - this is my first experience here, I hope this is the right place for my next investigation...

  As the topic - I upgraded my 545 with the kit to upgrade DELL moons ago.  I still have the 2 discs provided by DELL.

  I would like to refresh my poor overloaded machine and would like to know if it is possible to do so simply by inserting the 2 discs and repeat as before, which was very successful and the machine has been very stable.  Lately he has slowed down and I'd clean the unwanteds.

  Naturally, on the premise that programs will be lost during the procedure I'll save as required to load later.

  I'll be happy to hear if it is a practical solution for my turgid 545.

  Are anxious words of hearing of the wisdom of the knowledgeable members.

  Greetings - Vicko

  The pilots will not be loaded. Windows will be the base for most of the devices drivers. The real drivers are on your driver disk. Further however later versions to update from the Dell Web site.

  If you need specific help driver provides the hardware for the video controller ID and the wireless card (if you have a wireless card). These are the only variants in the system. Once I have this I can tell you precisely what to install. For instructions, see here:
