Vista emulator for windows 8?

Hi I am knew this community and hope someone can help with a question... Y at - it an emulator for windows vista 8?  And if so, how do I get it?  I have Windows 8 on my laptop and Vista on my desktop.  I need Vista to print to my printer and use QuickBooks and my desktop hard drive just crashed so I have no access to my printer (it's an older printer, but still good job and there is no drivers for Windows 8 for the printer).  I have an older version of QuickBooks and it works OK in Windows 8, but there are several features that don't work 8 what to do on Vista.  I don't want to have to get a new printer, and a new version of QuickBooks because I know it works fine under Vista.  Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you!

  • I have games for windows vista to windows 7

    If it is possible to transfer games from vista 64 for windows 7 64 I use windows 7 Professional

    Windows 7 and windows vista have the same games, so you just need to activate the games that are integrated with Windows 7 Pro.

  • Vista upgrade to Windows 7

    Hi, need help on the Windows 7 upgrade.

    I did an upgrade from Vista HP for Windows 7 HP without reading the literature and realized I should have used the upgrade wizard to complete the task, ie remove the incompatible files etc and replace them with compatible.

    But having already made this blunder, I wonder if I should do a clean install. If I do it again with a clean install can I reinstall the Toshiba Software preloaded on after installation?

    Is there an another way to prefer to deal with this - perhaps already delt with on another thread.

    Thank you

    Fred

    Hello

    To be honest your ad is a little difficult to understand, but generally the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 can be done without using the Toshiba drive, but the point is that it contains the tools you need from Toshiba. So I guess you miss now some Toshiba tools

    If everything works fine now, it should be possible to install from the Web from Toshiba website. Otherwise, it would be necessary to recover to factory settings and then restart the upgrade.

    By the way: it should first read the manual! ;)

    There is no SP2 for Windows 7. (It is not even an SP1 yet.) You upgrade from Vista SP1 for Windows 7?

  • Where can I find help for games of "MS Entertainment Pack for WIndows (1990). I can't seem to use them on Windows 7, but it can be used on Windows Vista?

    I have been using the following games; Taipei (Majongg tiles), Tetris, Golf (cards) and cruel (maps), which came with MS Entertainment Pack for Windows (1990) and who has worked with every version of MS Windows since 95 Windodws. I can use them with Windows Vista but I can't use them on Windows 7, I really enjoy these games and like to use them in Windows 7 and 8.

    "All Microsoft Entertainment Pack games work on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, but this only applies to 32-bit versions. The NTVDM allows 16-bit applications run in 32-bit versions of Windows. In the 64-bit versions of these operating systems are 32-bit applications be run in a compatibility layer in the kernel and layer 16 bit must be rewraped, this is why Microsoft has removed the feature. "(from Wikipedia)

    It's true. I tested the games ("Best of Windows Entertainment Pack", similar to the MEP even older) on 32-bit Windows 7, no problem. On Windows 7, 64 bit, they don't work (except if try you heavy workaround solutions like running Windows 3.1 on an emulator of BACK, then using this virtual operating system to run games).

  • 12.2.3 for Windows Vista

    I need the latest version of Itunes for a new iPhone SE. I'm still on Windows Vista. Http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ page:

    12.3.3 iTunes for Windows XP/Vista

    When I go to this page I see that:

    iTunes 12.3.3 for Windows 7 or later

    After a few years Apple (and other companies) probably decides that there are so few users of versions of a particular system, it is not economic to invest in the development of software for systems, particularly given that some systems have simply not hardware or software ability to support new features.  It's just the way it is through technology.  I guess the underlying rationale is that if you can afford a gadget you can afford the newest computer and Internet broadband too.

    No, I think Apple is bringing out a version of iTunes XP/Vista.

  • Re: Satellite X 200 - 22F - is - can I use BIOS of Vista 64 bit for Windows 7?

    Hello!

    Can I use Vista 64 - bit - 2.50 for my X 200 - 22 Satellite BIOS update? I just installed Windows 7 HOME PREMIUM 64 bit and it works fine.
    Before that, I had XP-32 bit running.

    Thank you in advance!

    Tom

    Hi tn411,

    I guess that the BIOS of 64 bit Vista would be the best choice for Windows 7 64 bit. The other version of BIOS on the Toshiba site seems to be for 32 bit OS, so you can choose the 64-bit version of Vista.

    If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)
