  Data loss caveat:

  Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin. This is to ensure that there is no loss of data.

  Method 3:

  Step 1:

  To avoid this problem on Windows Vista, obtain and install update 937287 from the Microsoft Download Center separately from all other updates on Windows Update site. Install the update that applies to your version of Windows Vista so that you are able to install future updates.

  A software update is available for the Windows Vista installation software feature

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/937287/en-us

  The following files are available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:

If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  I also recommend taking off of USB keys (for example, flash drives) or any other external media, as this takes place.

I get windows, quick blue screen, then, compaq, then, choice of start (normal, safe mode, safe mode with networking, etc..).  The work of the bios but return to default status does nothing - and when I hit save, it brings back me to the loop.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Windows Vista x 86, and Windows 7, losing by default settings of the printer after install updates day or end of remote session.

  We have been troubleshooting this issue for a while and we didn't have a patch even if it's a known issue.  When a workstation is set up as a network printer, even if the default settings of Windows (xps document writer) has been removed, the workstation will lose the default settings of the printer after that remote desktop sessions or windows updates have been installed.

  We tried MS FixIT and a registry mod that changes the order of the printers without success.

  We are hoping that there is a fix available before finalize us our Windows 7 image for deployment.

  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]
  "DebugOptions" = "2048".
  'The documents '=' '
  "DosPrint' = 'no '.
  "Load"=""
  "NetMessage' = 'no '.
  'NullPort' = 'None '.
  "Programs"="com exe pif bat cmd.
  "device"="no printer name1, winspool, Ne01:

  In our reg mod, we have changed the position of the device at the same time Ne00 and Ne01 without having an effect on the loss of the default printer.  The mod set the default printer, but the settings do not stick.

  I hope there is a fix for this, in addition to a logon script, because our users are on several remote sites.

• I can't start my computer after installing updates to manualling

  This happened almost a year and once from time to time I revisit the issue to see if I can find a solution.

  I tried to download the new version of Windows Live Messenger. Installation did not work because I needed a certain update. This hard drive (I have several) was not install updates for a while. Up to this point, I just thought it was a nuisance, but not a major problem. Because my computer would not install the updates on its own, and I needed a special update for the new Windows Live Messenger, I went online to find the update to install. I got the update ID (I don't remember what it was) so I quickly found and installed. Everything seemed fine until I restarted my computer - or attempted to guess - after installation. My computer won't start. I get a screen asking if I want to start Windows normally or start windows repair.

  Here are some of the things I've tried so far:

  Start Windows normally: a screen comes up saying something about checking the disks and it is recommended that you do not stop the disk check. I do not have anything and immediately it says that the disk check has been arrested. He stays on this screen infinitely - believe me I left on this screen for hours.

  Repair Windows: I used windows repair in the past for other problems and it worked wonderfully. This time I click to run windows repair and I go to a blue screen with the background of the blue sinuous line of vista but there is to this and nothing comes up.

  Safe mode (and any version of safe mode): when starting, I pressed F8 to start the extended options. All safe mode options lead to the same thing. I get a list of drivers and it says please wait... It always gets stuck on \windows\system32\drivers\crcdisk.sys and it is going nowhere.

  I tried almost all the options in the F8 menu and they all be given the normal startup problem or safe mode

  I then tried to do a repair of my disk of vista system. This time - unlike the previous attempt to repair windows - I got the menu normal repair. Unfortunately, the repair "attempted to correct the disk error" during more than 15 hours. I then shut down my computer, once again beaten by my computer.

  I always use this computer with other drives with no problems. Thus, it is certainly a problem on the hard drive and must be associated with the update I installed manually before this problem.

  Help, please!

  Hi, EMP,.

  Since you are unable to boot into safe mode and unable to repair the system, you can try to boot from the Windows Vista disc and try to perform a system restore.

  Method 1: Try to perform a system retsore.

  For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  An update is not installed successfully when you try to install the update in Windows Vista and Windows 7

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

  Method 2:

  If you still experience the problem, then try to perform a checkdisk to repair bad sectors on the hard drive.

  You can boot from Vista disk full or to run Checkdsk select command prompt from the System Recovery Options menu.

  a. Insert the installation disc.

  b. restart your computer.

  c. click on the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

  Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings.

  d. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

  e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt

  f. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER

  Chkdsk /f /r X: (drive letter)

  Note: When you run the checkdisk, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

  g. press y when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.

  h. close all applications and restart the computer.

  Note: When you run the disk check, there is a chance of losing the data you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

   Hope this information is useful.
