  Hello

  You can use this Recovery Partition to reinstall Vista to his new condition with the right edition of Vista.

  This recovery partition was photographed on your hard drive by HP during the manufacturing of the factory.

  You press F11 on startup to start the process of recovering back to factory settings.

  Here is the information about HP.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?DocName=c00809678&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&product=18703

  If the recovery partition is damaged, you can buy HP's Vista recovery discs for a small fee.

  If HP's Vista recovery disks, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  johncoxcpa,
  Well looking at the log you've posted, I came across this article:
  MSI (s) (2 c: D4) [22:29:29:073]: sequence number number for this installation system restore.
  This installation is forbidden by system policy. Contact your system administrator.
  c:\c17e5b6672c37d9f685b\Silverlight.msi

  So it seems that if your system has a software restriction policy installs.  You need to contact your IT Department. to learn about the changes to the policy will be to install Silverlight.

• The product key you entered will not work with this edition of Windows Vista. You must run the Windows Vista Setup program or enter a Windows Vista business product key

  Product key bad for the wrong version?

  Hello

  Recently the computer in business inherited from a friend, very fast and very good. Regardless of the operating system no - geniue, is with Vista Business, while the thumbnail of authentication is Vista Ultimate. I took a screenshot of what it says when I put Vista Ultimate product key: (it does not appear if you are unable to use it: P)

  http://S13.PostImage.org/57nfn5pqv/vistareg.jpg

  He said: "the product key you entered will not work with this edition of Windows Vista. You must run the Windows Vista Setup program or enter a Windows Vista Business product key."

  How would the installation of Windows Vista? My files would still be there when you need him? My drivers would still exist? No matter what to get deleted or become unusable? He would return to SP1? Any response is welcome.

  You can order form of the manufacturer's recovery media.

  The reason why the system as non-authentique shows currently is using a license in Volume KMS - these licenses must be re-activated at least every 6 months by connecting to the KMS user license activation server.

  It will require a reformat and reinstall whatever you do, unless you can connect to the KMS - Volume media server cannot be upgraded under normal conditions.

• Upcoming games with Windows 7 will not work on Presario SR1020NX. Upgrade Advisor said that W7 would work with the exception of the Aero

  W7 Upgrade Advisor said it would work with the exception of Windows Aero.  When the games to try to come with W7 get window 'game running in software rendering... '. Hardware acceleration disabled or not supported by the video card driver"games will not work. A check says last drivers are installed.  Tried to reinstall WXP in separeat partition to see if would work like that but will not because most recent W7.

  I suggest that you use XP personally gave a computer which is so old.

  If you have a computer with XP (3 + years) and have not changed at least two of these things (CPU, RAM, video card), you should probably stick with XP. Not worth the headache of praying that things work with a material more old which probably is no longer supported on the new OS.
  Usually, people that the computer was shipped with Vista 1, 2 or less it several years ago can be upgraded to 7 without too much trouble if it was a mid-range machine.

  In addition, it seems that Windows is not recognizing your graphics card. It looks like (http://www99.shopping.com/xPO-Hewlett-Packard-SR1020NX-CEL2-8-512-80-COM-XPH) you have an Intel Extreme graphics card. However, nothing about it is extreme. Since it is an extreme Intel card I guess Windows Update should find the drivers for you, but it is not then maybe the video card is just too outdated for 7? I'm not sure.

  Moreover, I wouldn't worry much about the lack of updates for XP right now. If ever you encounter more money then get the new computer with 7 on it, but at this time I suggest you stay on XP if your hardware and software actually works and that is more important than a few features of 7.

• I have a number of games of cards, Word and puzzle that works well with XP but will not work on Windows 7.

  Is there a download of XP compatibility that could solve this problem?

  You can try the comaptibility mode. See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows for the method.

  If you use Windows 7 Professional, ultimate or enterprise, you can try to use XP mode. See:
  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/products/features/windows-xp-mode for more details.

  If the games are 16-bit and you are running a 64 bit version of Windows 7, the games will not work unless you use an emulator.

• Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Vista Ultimate 32-bit upgrade. Installation file will not work. The error is described below.

  The XPS 730 with Intel Q9450 computer yourself running Windows 7 64 bit? The details of performance show that it is capable of 64-bit. When I try to install Windows 7 pro 64-bit upgrade, the installer will not work. I get an error that reads:
  The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows that you are running.
  
  I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Everything that I read on Microsoft and elsewhere says that you can go from Vista 32 bit to an operating system Windows 7 64-bit as long as you do the clean install. I'm that far away since I can't even run the installation.
  Maybe nobody knows what could be the problem?

  Hi Hal K,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

  If you are currently running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can only perform an upgrade to another 32-bit version of Windows. Similarly, if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, you can perform an upgrade to another 64-bit Windows version.

  If you want to move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows, and vice versa, you will need to back up your files and then perform a custom of the version of Windows you want to install installation.

  Hi mgm842,

  1. When did you start to question?

  2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  3. you receive messages or error codes?

  You can try to run a scan online and check.

  Step 1:

  You can check out the following link and try to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer and check.

  Note: When you perform the analysis, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup of important data before performing analysis.

  Check out the link:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Step 2:

  If you are still facing problems then try creating a new user account and check if the problem occurs:
