Vista Ultimate and no. Windows Fax and Scan option
I use Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, checking that the scanning device shows in scanners and cameras - status = ready but Windows Fax and Scan is not in my Start Menu. I think that's where?
Thank you-
Hi Pmd10,
You can type fax and scanning in the start search box and the option should appear in the upper part of the menu, or you can check if these steps also.
- Click Start > Control Panel
- Click turn on or off windows features
If the scan and fax option is enabled, try to uncheck the option, and then click ok
Restart your computer and check.
Hope this has been helpful.

bought Vista Ultimate and had to restore the computer to factory
I need to be able to load ultimate on the same machine but have no software disc.
* original title - I bought Vista Ultimate and had to reset the computer to factory vista and I did via down load. Is it possible to recover the Ultimate. I bought three different times, and I have my license info. *
HelloI would ask you to contact the Microsoft customer service to get the installation disk. After installation, you can use the same license key that you purchased to activate Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. Or you can also contact the website from which you downloaded the Windows vista ultimate.
See the article below for more information.

I have a Dell Inspiron 531 in the House. It's Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit without service pack. Can I download wallpaper cat Calico of Windows (r) and set it as background?
Sincerely,.
Numbuh3wearsabutterflycoutume
PS I went on the site of Microsoft Windows to download, but I cancelled.
Although the calico at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/personalize/wallpaper-desktop-background cat is technically for Windows7, I don't see that this will not work on your system (since it is, after all, just an image). Go ahead and try it. I don't think that you will have problems with the issue of the service pack with just a background image. If it does not or you cannot configure it to your liking, then maybe it does not match with the theme you are using (but which is not likely or must have its size adjusted before putting the context). But I suspect that it will work fine.
I hope this helps (and BTW, I LOVE the photo since I am a person cat myself).
Good luck!

Hello. Recently, I have reinstalled the 64 bit version of Windows Vista Ultimate on my computer. I allow all automatic updates (worth about 450MO) and let it do its thing. Afterwards, I had to reboot my computer. He was going smooth until he hit the "Configuring updates... "or something like that. The circle stopped going around smooth and pauses every second or two. After about 30 minutes, he went to "Shutting down...". "and I let this go all night. After 4 p.m., he was still at "Shutting down...". "therefore I kept the button and made a closed hard. After that I started it up, it would get to the loading screen with the green bars that go everywhere. It also was not smooth and stopping every second or two.
After about 10 minutes of this, I restarted my computer again, and it still wouldn't work. I tried to start in safe mode, but it would also stop during the loading of some drivers and not continue. So I reinstalled Vista again and, of course, was able to get without updates. I thought it may have been a one time thing, so I did the windows updates again. This problem repeated itself. So I reinstalled Vista and am refraining from doing the updates of windows.
I restarted my computer without updates, and it goes well. It is only after updates where it fails to turn it off and save. No one knows what is the problem and if there is a solution to this?
Hi JerryR9190
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers site
Are you Vista to get Service Pack 1 automatically as well?
If so, please try to download/install it yourself and see if that has any effect.

How todownload free vista ultimate x 64 windows from the microsoft site?
Please help me because I am trying to download windows vista ultimate 64 bit OS from Microsoft, but I'm not succeed
Please help me to download this windows.Hello
There are several methods to reinstall Vista.
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
And Microsoft sells more Vista; If that's what you're looking for.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.
Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.
If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.
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.

Upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate Edition of Windows 7 Professional?
Original title: Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade
I have a HP laptop that originally shipped with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium I did a clean install of Vista Ultimate with. I wonder if I've been upgrading to Windows 7 I can go with Windows 7 Professional? What is Ultimate? I am not wanting to use Windows 7 Home Premium, but I guess if I have no choice, then it is what it is.
Thank you in advance for your help!
I look after 150 Windows 7 client computers. I can inspires you much insight that there is virtually no reason for a user of typical computer use anything more expensive than the publishing house. Virtually all the differences are useful for system administrators and advanced users.
That being said, you may have a lot of trouble FINDING any edition of Windows 7 other than professional, due to rules of Microsoft. However, my advice to my clients is to buy the House if you can find and save your money.
You first need to know if your Vista machine can support 64-bit. It is possible, if you want to install. Then add memory at least 4 gigabytes.
Also, before everything that you can do that, strongly recommend that you evaluate the status of your hard drive. Portable hard drives are usually the first thing to fail in a laptop. You must determine if you need to replace the hard drive first. In fact, it's what I would do. You can test the EQUIPMENT of your drive by running a software tester training from the manufacturer of your hard drive. If you pass along the model number of your player (Device Manager shows it), I'll answer with a link to this software.
Other tips: do not use the UPGRADE option. All operating system installations must be clean, or so-called Custom in the installation process.
