    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  • Default configuration restoration changes Windows updates do not turn off the computer

    Step 1 of the 'solution' to this error reads:

    Drag from the upper right of the screen (or if you use a mouse, move the mouse to the upper right of the screen) and then tap or click settings.

    It is impossible to do this step 1 because my computer never stops display failure message to offer a mouse or interactivity, whether... it is in an infinite loop of failure with no way to stop.  Same way as fail-safe after power reset does not work.  There is nothing I can do at all.

    You will then need to repair your computer using a recovery disc or installation media.

    Boot from the media(Instructions are here)

    and then select repair your computer in the first screen that says install now:

    Then follow option 7:

    Hi Cris,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?

    I understand that you can not install some updates with the error message "failure of configuration of the Windows updates...". ». I can imagine the disadvantages suffered by you and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem.

    First place, according to the error message, I suggest you to try the steps in the following article and check if it helps.

    "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

    Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.


    The question may arise if the Windows downloaded update packages are corrupt. So, if you are able to start the computer successfully after following article provided above, I also suggest you try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Try to run that Windows update utility provided in the following link.

    Problems with installing updates

    Try to install the updates after running the troubleshooter.

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    I suggest you to use Deployment Image Servicing and Management to fix Windows Update errors.

    (a) open an elevated command prompt. To do this, press the Windows key + Q and type in CMD right click on command prompt in the list and select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    (b) type the following commands. Press enter after each command

    • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    • DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    (c) close the command prompt, and then run Windows Update again.

    Check if the problem persists.

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

  • Venue Pro 8 - button / stop does not turn off the screen

    I just got a coming 8 Pro (32g).  The user manual says that I should be able to press the power button and turn off the screen.  However, when I press the power button, nothing happens.  I can for 4 seconds and the PC will ask to stop, but pressing on this button does not put the tablet in standby or turn off the screen at all.  I have to go to settings-> Power-> sleep just to turn off the screen.

    Yes, I checked the setting of the button / stop under control panel, and it is set to "Sleep" for all cases, battery and plugged in.

    Is there another setting somewhere to turn on the power button to turn off the screen?
