My laptop is Toshiba Satellite p300 version made. Is it possible for me to download and install a trial version of Vista 32 and enter the serial number given at the back of my laptop to save it? I don't want to buy another OS, while I already paid for it. Comments, tips, suggestions, and help is appreciated! Thank you.
Hello
Why did did you format it. That's what you had to do to reinstall Vista.
https://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/bulletinDetail.jsp?soID=2737864&PF=true
If the mentioned in this link recovery Partition is destroyed, you will need to contact Toshiba and see if they have Vista recovery discs available.
http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp
They provide, for a fee.
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, 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 '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
"How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

drivers windows 7 the same as windows vista drivers
I spent nearly two weeks, upgrade XP to windows 7 - a nightmare
I have a problem of virtual paperport driver... not supported by paperport or brother printer
TWO questions
generally are the same as Windows 7 drivers drivers Vista?
(2) I have a laptop Dell crashed (coffee spill), if I remove the hard drive (OK not wet) which has windows XP on it and install it in a laptop Dell SAME-same processor, etc... who currently has windows Vista until its BONES... the laptop starts & exploit?
Hello
1. if the operating system is different, the drivers are never the same. The drivers are designed and programmed primarily to be 100% compatible or work with an operating system unless the manufacturer is also developing drivers for other BONES. That said, a XP driver is not the same thing as Vista, Vista is not the same as 7 and 7 is not the same as 8. They are all developed to work properly and tested with their own operating system, that's all. You pouvez however install 7 drivers on 8 for example, if you run the driver setup .exe to ensure compatibility with Windows 7. The drivers will work 100%? Never a guarantee.
2 it might work, however, you can get a message on your product key is not valid no longer during which you must then try to reactivate, l or contact Dell.
Kind regards
Patrick

The site claims to be a Fox News survey. The full URL exceeds the URL window. The site contains Firefox - it cannot be closed, and no command of Firefox does. The Firefox window can not be killed by the Task Manager. I can't erase the cache or history of Firefox because it is already possessed by the demon. (Note: my husband is blind, and his screen reader - JAWS - can not handle this bizarre behavior, so I'm involved.) He has no idea how he came in first in this situation.) Note: It is currently running Windows 7 (64-bit), and I think that the latest version of Firefox - it updates automatically. My next idea is to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. That will kill the cache? (a little) bookmarks? (bad!)
Delete the sessionstore.js file possible sessionstore-# .js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Note that deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and tab groups and open and closed (back) tablets to get lost, so you have to create them again.
You can set the integer pref browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to 0 on the subject: config page in order to get the about: sessionrestore page immediately with the first reboot after a failure has occurred or the Task Manager was used for the closing of Firefox.

This way to see if a series of sessions has crashed or otherwise did not close correctly and deselects the tabs that you do not want to reopen, but will reopen the other tabs.

Tried several times. Windows Update keeps prompting me to install but it fails every time.
I was finally able to solve the problem of not being able to update KB975051 and KB976882 by taking the following measures:
In Google I typed in 'the kb976882 will not be installed. Under options, I got "Download Details: update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Junk...» "the site of Microsoft.com/downloads. I downloaded from this site and then also picked KB975051 on other popular choice located lower on the page and done the same thing. I don't remember this solution being a few days ago.
I hope you find that this approach works for you as well. Ignore the entrance of miss under my name as proposed in another comment response. I have missunderstood as a way to comment on...

the mouse jumps everywhere, do not stay in the same place in Vista
my mouse (pointer) guard jumping around and I can't keep it in one place
· You are using a laptop with a touchscreen? Chances are good that you accidentally touch the touchpad while typing, and that moves the cursor. Go to start / Control Panel / mouse and see if there are controls for adjusting the sensitivity of the touchpad or to disable the touchpad while typing. Go to the web site of the manufacturer of your and download the latest device drivers, firmware, and software for touchpad you and your mouse (if you also have a mouse - you may have to go the manufacturer of the mouse for these drivers, if she did not come with the system). New updates can offer options that did not exist before like the ones I mentioned.
This happened to me also and I bought a separate mouse and disabled the touchpad and the problem disappeared - but he had me past for awhile until I finally figured it out by typing differently (with my hands up higher so the Palms do not touch and had no problem). Even if this isn't the problem, update the drivers, firmware or software can solve the problem on its own.
If none of the works above, we will need either to run a complete troubleshooting procedures (post back and I'll meet with them) or the touchpad or mouse is defective and must be replaced. You can discuss these last with the computer manufacturer when you talk to them (if you talk to them).
I hope this helps. If you have any questions along the way, come back and I'll do my best to answer.
Good luck!

Eelle have degrees of autism and require very individualized changes of their standardized curriculum class in public schools. My laptop was purchased in 2007, and while she is an old lady like me, she is reliable, powerful and small enough horse for me to work on the fly... I just want to her top in order to exploit one of my docking stations or both at the same time...
Gateway model C-5815 notebook convertible; touchscreen navigation or Penabled; Intel Centrino Core 2 Duo processor; U 7500 1.06 GHZ GHZ 1.07; 4 GB RAM 32-bit operating system.

AND ONLY 2 USB PORTS from where I work, 2 external hard drives, 2 printers; 2 scanners; 1 external TV/monitor, 1 keyboard, 1 ball control, external speakers and sinc various gps units, Ipods, cell phones, etc etc etc... I did all this by the docking station to a generic port Targus 3 unit and an extension of USB Belkin 7port...
UPDATE Mahalo for anyone who has tried to help me with this question... I read everything that was recommended, but nothing has addressed this issue directly. In the end, I just bit the bullett and both plugged to my laptop... She has chewed on everything what adding new material for some time, but then she moved and purred... I even tried plugging and unplugging does material of a docking, and still she purred... Mahalo to look at the problem (not) with me... Apparently the business Windows Vista is quite difficult to adapt to both stations and host at the same time...
