    You are unable to update or upgrade Vista 32 bit to 64 bit of Vista.

    32-bit to 64-bit, or 64 bit to 32 bit is done by a new installation using a full version of the operating system.

    32-bit and 64-bit are different operating systems.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit - cannot do group policy as disabled system restore, but have no way to activate Group Policy.

    Hi, I have Windows Home Premium 64-bit. I want to create a restore point, but I get a message saying that the system restore has been disabled by the administrator of the political group contact domain administrator. I am connected with an administrator account. I have read forums that give instructions to access the system restore options: file or tabs just do not appear and there are some comments saying that the option does not exist in my version. So how the hell do I create a system restore point in Vista Home Premium?

    Quote:

    Using the Group Policy Editor
    If your edition of Windows Vista includes the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) snap-in, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, type gpedit.msc and press ENTER
    2. go to the following branch: Computer Configuration | Administrative templates | System | System Restore
    3. double click on disable the Configuration and set it to not configured.
    Note: If the above setting is already set to not configured, set it to "Enabled" and click on apply. Return back the setting to not configured, then click on apply, OK.
    4. exit the Group Policy Editor.

    If using the Group Policy Editor do not fix the problem, try the registry fix from the following.

    Note: Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • PC Windows 7 and Vista Home Premium computer network cannot access each other

    I have an a Premimum Vista computer with a USB printer on a network with a Windows 7 Ultimate Computer.  Both recognize each other both are visible in the network on both computers) but I can not access one or the other.  Message on window 7 says "your computer seems to be correctly configured but the resource does not."
    "Any suggestions?  I need to produce and share printers.

    Here are the steps of general network troubleshooting. Just cannot apply to your situation, so just take the bits that are. It may seem daunting, but if you follow the steps in the links and suggestions below calmly and consistently, you will have no difficulty to implement your sharing.

    Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

    Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

    In Vista, turn on password protected sharing. In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

    Discovery of plug in the network
    Open the files and printers sharing
    Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
    Plug the password protected sharing

    A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, turning on window file sharing and printer as the above will take care of that for you. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

    (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

    C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

    Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

    D. create shares as desired. In Windows 7/Vista I usually shares its office and the Public directory.

    E. After you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but that is beyond the scope of this answer.

  • Cannot upgrade Vista Home Premium Vista Ultimate 64-bit

    I have a computer with an OEM Vista Home Premium 64-bit version installed. I bought Vista Ultimate Upgrade 64-bit and when I try to upgrade instead of clean install I not give me the option to upgrade. Instead, I can install a clean install and lose all programs, settings, I have on my system that has taken a lot of time.  Why the copy I bought directly from the microsoft.com site does not my upgrade, even if it is the version upgrade of Vista? I want to be able to do things such as distance to this computer and the Premium version does not allow me.

  • Problems of 64-bit Vista Home Premium, Ultimate upgrade

    I recently bought a laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1144us with 64-bit Windows Vista Home Premium (with SP1) pre-installed electronics Fry as well as a copy of the upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (with SP1) because I need to the ability to connect to a domain when using the laptop at work.  After installing Office 2007 Standard and by ensuring that the new Windows Vista laptop basically work, I tried to run the installation from the Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit Upgrade disk and found that, after an hour or two of an upgrade treat it to race end in a non-descript "cannot upgrade one or more components.  Error Windows will restart and cancel the upgrade. ", after which he ends by turn to Vista Home Premium.

    After doing a little research online (on TechArena) and I have re-tried the upgrade again after:

    In Control Panel-> programs and features:

    -Deactivation of Microsoft.NET Framework 3.0

    -Disable remote differential Compression

    -Deactivation of the replication DFS Windows Service

    Disable Norton Virus and Internet Security software pre-installed

    Disable the Windows Firewall and defender.

    Uninstalling Quicktime and AIM.

    Disconnect all other devices to a USB mouse.

    However when "Compatibility Check" of the upgrade at the beginning, he warn a problem with a filter 'keyboard '.

    (no further details) which I think can refer to the HP software that implement quick launch the laptop keys.

    So I downloaded and installed the latest version of the HP Quick Launch Button drivers on the HP Support page:

    ' HP Quick Launch buttons Date: 08/2008 Version: 6.40.8.2 H size: 20.97 M

    and I tried again, but still without success.

    Note: I can not run the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor, as recommended because it does not work on Vista 64 bit.

    However, there are standard HP and Microsoft Vista + Office + MessengerLive software installed only at this stage.

    Are there additional clues on what to try next?  Has anyone experience this problem?

    -Greg

    You can try to uninstall the filter on the keyboard until the upgrade is complete...  In Device Manager, go to 'View' and select 'show hidden devices and then go down to "Non-Plug and Play drivers" and made a right click on the keyboard/HID filter drivers and uninstall (remove also the softare upon request).

  • Vista Home Premium: Startup time and office flaws often requiring the log off / log on to Correct

    At all to being able to help solve these problems successfully:

    When I bought my office, it came preloaded with Win XP (a FANATASTIC/s o!) with an installation disc free for Vista Home Premium. I have installed Vista until recently due to support XP being more available.

    Problems currently on a regular basis (every reboot) are:

    (1) long startup (sometimes nearly 10 minutes)

    (2) the "Blacktop" (AERO) Vista appears generally "gray" (like Win Classic) but with VERY little
    Services (icons missing, unable to run diagnostic programs, etc.).

    In this situation, I usually 'Log Off' and 'Connect' again and it fixes the problem-"bitumen".
    is back with the functions of the al. Despite this, I'll restart desktop using Services.msc. for all the functions

    are available.

    System information:

    (A) AMD 64 Athlon 3500 + (2.20 GHz)
    (B) 3.00 GB RAM
    (C) Vista 32 Bit (SP1 and SP2 installed (all updates current)
    (D) ATI Radeon XPress 200 Series (current driver)
    (E) all drivers are current (no changes required)
    (F) update BIOS (not not required)

    Note:

    (1) I am the user ONLY if the 'Default' options are regularly 'Log In' (as admin) - no guest accounts, etc.

    (2) I reduced some Desktop effects, which are not necessary (Menu Fade in and out, etc.) according to

    instructions of MSFT community on how to do this and what is safe to disable. This helped a little
    and I don't miss these features.

    (2) I deleted the "Windows.old" folder (as there was nothing to add to the Vista o/s).

    (3) I have NOT deleted the Partition which was part of the Win XP System Restore feature as)
    "I don't know if I should as well as to think that I should keep this system offline and running XP).

    (4) I use a security program that securely wipes deleted data, cache password, etc..
    Under Win XP, there was the possibility of "Protect Restore Points" (not required for Vista).
    I do NOT use the option "delete shadow copies".

    My questions are:

    (A) what is the cause of the boot extended both office and how to tackle it successfully?

    (B) what is the problem with the desktop computer? I don't mind the Log in and out a lot but would like to get rid
    me of this disadvantage.  I would like TO have the Vista boot WITHOUT having to Log in and out to

    ensure that the AERO desktop is available and functional.

    (C) should I delete the files and restore Partition in Win XP? Is this the cause may be a conflict with
    Vista? Also, please let know us if you think it would be better to keep these files available if no
    conflicts are possible or probable.

    (D) what is the path, the file name or folder (path if necessary) which governs the entire desktop
    (startup, appearance, services, etc.). so I can enter my security software to exclude it from
    be affected?

    Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

    Incidentally - for all owners of Scanner Epson 1200U running Vista Service Pack 2:

    YES! Successfully, you CAN install and run this scanner on Vista with the EPSON Twain 5.53 driver without twisting your registry, etc.

    Steps to follow:

    (1) download the file of v5.53 (10245.exe) driver TWAIN Epson

    2) extract to the folder (default location or a location of choice) and open the folder

    (3) right click on the "Setup.exe" file, go to properties and set the compatibility to Win XP SP-2

    (4) run the configuration file and wait for Windows Vista to give up the search on the web, ignore the 'warning' when he

    comes to the top and connect the scanner to complete installation as you did under Win XP (or earlier versions)

    NOTE: You will have to wait a long TIME for the next window appears once complete Vista

    research on the web. It seems that the reason why a lot of Vista with the Epson 1200U Scanner users are

    running out of patience, that it was my problem-so, the Eureka moment happened!

    My camera works great! The only loss is you open TWAIN in the application, is not
    automatically start more. This may be fixable, but I'm glad it works and I don't know enough to make the necessary changes in the registry, etc.
