  Hello

  A manufacturer of recovery disc is designed for a particular brand and computer model; they are not interchangeable.

  Here is the link to order the Acer recovery disks:

  http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

  And if the Acer never included a drive to purchase, you should have a recovery Partition on your hard disk to reinstall Vista to how it was when new.

  With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the process of recovery back to new condition.

  See you soon.

• At startup, updates to Vista is stuck on "Full download 100% - do not turn off your computer". Cannot stop at least stop with button / stop.

  At startup, Vista update will start and get blocked msg on "Full download 100% - do not turn off your computer".  Last night on the left that it runs and it took 12.5 hours before finally coming out of the error status and asking for the password.  Could not stop downloading progress with Task Manager/ctrl-alt-del, etc., unless you use the power button / stop.   This severely limits the duration of use and if/when we are able to use it in an hour or two, it black screens and reboots restart fiasco together again.

  Hello Steve Gardener.

  Thanks for your post.  Try to start your computer in Safe Mode.  This allows the update to install without problem?  If so, start your computer in normal mode and a test for features.  Please let us know the results.

• After the upgrade from Office 2007 to Ofice 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while.

  After upgrade Office 2007 to Office 2010 on my Vista, then my computer turns off after being idle for a while. When I turn on my computer, I get the splash screen indicating that Windows has finished unexpectedly and I would like to start in safe mode or normally (pluss a couple more choice...).

  Appears not to occur if there is activity going on--as if do me some work or have itunes playing music or I'm just surfing the internet. Curiously, it seems not to happen if I close Internet Explorer and Outlook.

  I shot all automatic updates for Windows Vista (32 bit) and Microsoft Office.

  Concerning

  B Odd Andersen

  Hi B Odd Andersen,

  I want to clarify if your computer seems to be sleeping or it completely closed after being idle for a while.

  Method 1: If the computer is in power saving mode, check if you can wake the computer from this State by moving the mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard.

  Method 2: Change the power to another and check to see if the problem persists
  Change, create, or delete a power plan (scheme)

  Method 3: check the logs in event viewer for more information on auto-off down

  Open event viewer

  What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer)

  Note: For your safety and security, it is not recommended to disable Windows Update.
  Activate the update or disable automatic

  Thanks and greetings

• If I have windows vista on a computer, can I turn it off, buy a new one and get the upgrade to windows 7 on the computer?

  I have windows vista (32-bit), so if I sell it for scrap, but keep the license, buy a new computer, install windows 7 (64-bit) by using the upgrade to windows? When I say upgrade I'm talking about the updated version of windows Home premium, i.e. There is a full and then there is the upgrade (only for those who have vista or xp). I'm not worried about any problem of hardware, or drivers or any other problem, just strictly issues of software operating system (between the license). Please just say yes or no and explain if necissary. Thank you.

  No, you can't sell the license and keep it at the same time. In addition, the Windows 7 upgrade depends on a license previous qualification. If you use Vista as a qualifying product, it becomes an integral part of the license and is not transferable to another computer.

  Since the Windows end user license agreement:

  17. TRANSFER TO A THIRD PARTY. You can transfer the software directly to a not third parties only with the licensed computer. The transfer must include the software and the certificate of Authenticity label. You can't keep all copies of the software or any earlier version. Before any transfer authorized, the other party must accept that this agreement applies to the transfer and use of the software.

• Delay in setting off the computer

  When I try to turn my computer off or put it to sleep, there are about a two minute delay to hit button the computer turn it off until the screen next comes up asking me if I want to sleep, restart or power off the computer.  This just started recently.   Any suggestions on what could be the problem?

  Shutdown problems are usually caused by a program or process that won't come out gracefully. The program or process may be against malware, or may be legitimate (for example a pervasive like Norton or McAfee antivirus). If you use Norton or McAfee product, uninstall it and replace it with a better program like NOD32, Kasperksy or Avast (free). The Windows Firewall is enough for most people. Shutdown problems can also be caused by old/badly written drivers so make sure that all the drivers are updated.

  A.the first step should always ensure that your computer is free of viruses/malware.

  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  B. If the computer is free of viruses/malware, the drivers are current, and no program Norton or McAfee is installed, then do boot minimum troubleshooting to see what program/process is the culprit:

  Standard caveat: If the problem is too difficult - and there is absolutely no shame in admitting it isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a computer repair shop.

  Hello 3Ran
  Thank you for using Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

  Michael Murphy has provided these steps already; I'll just say it in a different way.

  Because you can't go to your office, I suggest that you start your computer in safe MODE. Next to normal mode, it is a different way to connect to your computer and makes a few changes when the problem.

  HOW TO START YOUR COMPUTER IN SAFE MODE

  1. Restart your computer if it is running.
  2. Press the F8 key after your computer powers initially.
  3. Once you see the menu Advanced Startup Options , you can stop tapping.
  4. Up/down arrow keys to highlight your selection.
  5. Select Safe Mode with network and press enter.
  6. You should see loading drivers and then Please wait.
  7. You should then be on the Welcome screen.

  Connect to your computer using an account with administrator privileges.

  Hey Janeynflorida

  1st thing to try is a restoration of the system in safe mode

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.
