• It's going to be an update for Windows Vista (home premium 32 bit is what I'm running) which will trigger the max score until Windows 7 is going to?

  I have these sides:

  CPU - 4.7

  RAM - 4.8

  Graphics - 5.9

  G. graphics - 5.9

  Disk hard - 5.7

  What I want is to be able to tell how my graphics card is really because it's maxed out at 5.9. I know that if I was running 7 it would be 6. _ or maybe even 7. _.  So is there an update I can download for vista which will allow my ratings reach the coast on windows 7?

  Not - or at least not likely (but the drivers, firmware or software updates regular for the device using Vista may helo).  The ratings are based on this device using the disks appropriate for your version of Vista device and it.  How it works in Windows 7 (if it works in Windows 7) is from THESE drivers and the operating system (and other components on this computer).  Even if you can and did move to Windows 7, there is no guarantee that you would get all the numbers even better less significantly better numbers - although it is certainly possible amd I know that it has been the case for others who have updated.

  The best place to check the updates of device driveer (or firmware or software related, if applicable) is either the manufacturer of the computer if it came with the computer or the manufacturer of the device.  Their websites should have the links and downloads and they will be the most recent and the best available (better that what you could get through Microsoft - in fact, I suggest strongly you never use the drivers supplied by Microsoft and always bring manufacturers directly. What is the most recent will be available to give you the best possible results (before the upgrade of the unit such as adding more RAM tp the video card if your system and it can accept more RAM).

  You cannot use Windows 7 device on a Vista machine drivers.  Not only which won't work (if it allows even the facility) and will not improve ratings but that could seriously damage your system or device.  Please take my word on it and don't even consider that it.

  Just check out the manufacturers for updates of device (drivers, firmware and/or software) and keep your system up-to-date with the latest available, and that's the best you can do.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• 8007371c with windows update error code. Vista Home Premium 32-bit system.

• Printing for Vista Home Premium 32-bit network: Blank document or disappears from the queue

  I'm having trouble printing large format HP DeskJet 1000 c, which is connected via a parallel cable to my Media Center/DVR PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit SP2 on my printer. I connected with the success of this printer to two different computers, a desktop PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - bit SP2 and a laptop Mac OS x 10.5.8. I can print from the local computer very well, but when I try and use the printer on the network, one of two things happens depending on what machine I try and print from:

  1. from Vista 64 Desktop: printing the task appears, treats and disappears from the queue to the local printing on PC DVR. Printer advance a sheet of paper as if he were about to print, then waits with a power indicator light flashes. If you send a new job network, the tip sheet of paper is ejected and the process begins again. If you send a new job locally, the tip sheet of paper is ejected and the local job will print normally.

  2. from Mac OS x: printing the task appears, treats and disappears from the queue to the local printing on PC DVR. Printer does nothing.

  Although the process of networking of printers with OS X 10.5 and Vista is a bit more complicated (annoying) it was with XP, I am able to print from the Mac to a printer on the Vista 64 machine very well. Similarly, PC DVR allows you to print to the printer of the Vista 64 computer and a printer connected to my Mac desktop.

  I checked the HP site for drivers and since it is a quite old printer, there is no listed for any operating system newer than Windows 2000 (which a pilot has been included with the operating system). Any ideas as to why the PC DVR will not take of the network print jobs? Unfortunately, this complex printer (3 printers, 4 machines) installation is somewhat needed due to the possibilities of each printer and how my home office is laid out. If they did a multifunction, printer laser color large network format, I could sell my soul for what it... But I'm not aware of such a machine available to mortals.

  There is a difficulty that recently came on the HP Forums for 64-bit Vista:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/printer-all-in-one-software-and/DeskJet-710-720-810-820-100-series-printers-patch-for-64-bit/m-p/203377#U203377

  All you have to is to download the mentioned file and replace some dll with those provided.

  The question remains with OS X, but I do not expect that Microsoft will provide no support for this.

• Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bit &#62; Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit?

  Just a question, I currently have Vista Home Premium 32 Bit OEM and want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.  When you buy an upgrade pack does with Versions 32 and 64 BIT, I understand not doing a clean install, etc..  but the DVD with this capability upgrade?  as far as I can see the comments are widespread, and State if the disk used for the upgrade is a full version or an upgrade copy.   Because I would rather buy the upgrade on a whole new pack of detail for reasons of $.

  Yes, this full and updated details to level version boxed packages include records of 32 and 64-bit.

  Upgrade paths:
  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. Also, you can make the downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

• It keeps rejecting my product key! (upgrade from Vista home premium 32 bit to Windows 7 64-bit).

  Thus, as the title past Windows is not accepting my new Windows 7 product key. I bought the product key and copy (at the same time of course) of my college, as I am a computer SCIENCE student is trying to catch up. Anyway, if I get home and install my new Windows 7 SP1 (whatever that means) through "BIOS" because I've been upgraded to Vista Home premium 32-bit. When he asked my product key during the installation/installation that it wasn't working, I thought although it may need some updates or something. So I click on ignore and continue the installation. Then after all updates etc... I then try again the product key, and of course it does not work as most of the new technologies in this House works the first time.

  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
   
  Right-click on the zt.exe file and choose "Run as Administrator" to launch the program.
   
  See if you are able to play the game.

  If this does not work, turn your computer to clean the start State and see if the fgame plays very well.

We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
   
  1. sign the computer by using an account with administrator rights.
   
  2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

• I need to know the file current date/time number stamp and the version of "spoolsv.exe" in Vista Home Premium 32-bit with SP2.

  I need to know the file current date/time number stamp and the version of "spoolsv.exe" in Vista Home Premium 32-bit with SP2. My spooler file got corrupted and I need to know what that the stamp of date/time on the latest version of the file: spoolsv.exe. I did a search on my hard drive and found 8 copies of the file with 7 different dates. I need to know which copy in my file C:\windows\system32\. I suspect that the problem was caused by some kind of malware. I think that some of the different versions on my machine of the initial installation of the Vista, SP1 and SP2. 3 copies that would explain. I tried all the suggestions in this forum and several others. I tried sfc/scannow and it simply replaces the corrupted file by another. I understand how works this file and a simple copy will do the trick if I knew that the file to use. I know that I don't want to go back to the first version of 2006.  BTW... my symptoms are all my printers have disappeared, and when I try to 'add a new printer' I get an error message saying that my spooler service does not work. When I opened my services window it shows that indeed, he is arrested, but I will not start because the description column contains only the code garbled machine indicating that the file is corrupted, or it may contain a virus. I had been using F-Prot until this virus got by and now I use AVG. I scanned my machine with several cleaning packages and it is is more infected, but I worry that from this corrupt file grow something. I know that the problem is not with my printers or drivers, because everyone on my home network can print on all of my printers. None of the people I know are on Vista 32 bit. They are all running System 7 or XP. I have XP, except that a few years ago I suffered from the "Syndrome of Pepsi" on my laptop and when I bought a new HP, it came with Vista.
