  To perform a clean boot on a computer that is running Windows Vista:

  a. Click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  b. on the general tab, click Selective startup.

  c. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  d. click OK.

  e. When prompted, click on restart.

  f. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  If your problem is resolved after the clean boot, and then follow the steps in the following article to narrow down the exact source:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  In addition, refer to the section on how to restore your computer to a Normal startup mode by following the steps under "Reset the computer to start as usual", after performing the clean boot troubleshooting.

• When you try to re - install Windows XP, it does not detect the hard drive.

  Hi all. I tired to do a reinstall of Windows XP today. It seems to take a lot of time, and then I did a very stupid thing. I turned off the laptop that I had to go. Now when I try to start the laptop on the cd, I get as far the screen where I have to press on enter to install Windows XP pro on the system or press R to repair. The problem is that there is now no facilities to choose from in the box below and the system is not recognizing the hard drive. I can't even as much as the screen to format the drive. When I press ENTER to install windows xp, then I get a blue screen telling me that the system shuts down to protect my pc. Is anyone able to tell me what to do to solve this problem please. Thank you very much in advance for your help. Noel

  original title: I did a stupid thing... Windows XP Pro

  Sounds like a hard drive problem then. Your drive is maybe defective. First of all, you can use the partition of diagnostic Dell (F12) for its determination.

  In case there is a SATA problem, press F2 to enter the BIOS and change the setting of hard disk SATA to legacy. (Might as well try this first.)

• [SOLVED] Problem - cannot install Windows XP on C dive - only option is the D drive.

  Hello

  I'm doing a clean install of windows xp pro on a hard disk with unallocated space at the front of the drive and a primary partition containing the data at the end of the training.

  I want to install windows xp pro on a primary partition on the front of the disk on drive C.

  Here's my problem:

  When I was installing windows xp pro, I noticed that when I created a partition in the unallocated space at the front of the car where I wanted to install windows xp pro, that I couldn't C as a drive letter for the installation drive - d only.

  I ran the installation at the end and Yes, windows xp pro did install on drive D - this isn't what I want - I want it on the C drive.

  Can someone tell me how I can solve this installation problem.

  Should I run a partition boot CD and set up a primary partition on the front of the drive before installing windows xp pro?

  Thank you very much.

  I solved this problem by following these steps:

  1. I installed a second hard drive (old sata drive).

  2. I installed windows xp on the second hard drive.

  3. I photographed the windows xp install from the second disc on the first hard drive.

  4. I deleted the second disc.

  5. I've rehearsed with my other computers.

  Everything works fine - just takes a little longer than expected.

• Update Windows stuck in a loop. Keeps trying to download page 3 of 3, but never does, then restarts and is trying to download. Can't seem to put an end to the loop.

  Update Windows stuck in a loop. Keeps trying to download page 3 of 3, but never does, then restarts and is trying to download. Can't stop the loop to try something else.

  The operating system is Windows Vista.

  I found this as a solution and to share it here, I still have questions, but thinking might help someone.

  Windows Vista and 7 update Reboot Loop Fix

  Symptom: You have a update that is causing Windows Vista or Windows 7, stuck in an infinite loop. The problem usually manifests as a "step 3 of 3:0 % complete...". "followed by a restart which starts at the exact same message, not allowing you to get on your account of connection or a desktop at all. It's a pain, and he doesn't stop, even in Mode without failure or advanced trying last good known Configuration in the start menu.

  Here is the short version for people who know how to get to tools to do this and if run System Restore from the installation DVD does not work: DELETE files

  \Windows\WinSxS\cleanup.XML AND (as applicable)
  

  \Windows\WinSxS\pending.XML and the infinite loop update will be set.

  There are two ways to get the files, you need to delete. The easiest is to start your installation of Windows and the button 'Install now' DVD, click on the link located at the bottom left that says 'Repair your computer' open a command prompt and type:

  del C:\Windows\WinSxS\cleanup.xml

  del C:\Windows\WinSxS\pending.xml

  The other way is to download a live Linux distribution such as the System of Tritech Service (which, unlike Vista or 7 DVD, can be booted from a USB flash drive for computers with no CD/DVD drive such as netbooks), open a command prompt, mount the file system and deleting the files. Assuming that your Windows installation is the first partition on the first hard disk, the following commands in rxvt or a console in the Tritech Service system should work:

  Mount.NTFS - 3 g/dev/sda1/mnt/sda1

  RM /mnt/sda1/Windows/*/cleanup.xml /mnt/sda1/Windows/*/pending.xml

  umount/mnt/sda1

  discount to zero f

  Anyway you do it, this solution will stop the engine update loop reboot and let you return to your computer. You may need to make some corrections, additional or manual updates if you have problems, but unless your login screen and/or the Office should be accessible! Is a very annoying problem and I noticed that Google is looking for things like "stage of vista 3 3 restart" usually only provides information about how to run the system on a Vista DVD restore. Unfortunately, if there is a problem with an update, sometimes the system restore does not work and fail with obscure errors, so this info is vital.

  Maybe it's your last chance to avoid giving to the top and reinstalling Windows, and we always like avoiding relocations!

• Hard disk formatted, freshly installed Windows 8, but it does not work with the old key

  I had bought a Lenovo Z570 two years back, with Original Windows 7 Home Premium.

  When Windows 8 released in November 2012, I had bought and upgraded online for her.

  I had used the Windows 8 since then. Yesterday, due to various problems, I had to format my hard drive, and when I finally managed to install Windows 8 on my laptop again, it does not allow me to activate windows 8 using my normal key (he says that this key did not work)

  It was the key in the email from the seller, and I have an e-mail, which has a Bill to prove.
  I guess this could be due to the PC 1 by purchase clause, however, it's the same PC (more like laptop). So I do not understand why I would not be allowed to activate the software I used earlier on the same laptop still on the same laptop after installing it.

  Please get to me as soon as possible if there is a solution.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey! Thanks for your help, but I had refreshed my windows 8 in the meantime and connected to the internet after that. and then when I followed your instructions and run slui.exe, it says that windows is activated. so I guess that the problem is solved.

  I had pre installed windows vista on my laptop. now, I replaced the hard drive. so, can we recover only windows giving you the serial number? I have sony laptop.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  http://eSupport.Sony.com/

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

• Install Windows on a new hard drive while maintaining the files on the old?

  I have Windows 7 64-bit on my stock 500 GB hard drive. I have a 64 GB mSATA which I would like to do a clean install of Win7 on. Regarding the 500 gig HD, I would like to wipe and partition (it is loaded with bloatware and probably malware) but if possible, I like to keep a few photos and mp3s. I have to wipe everything, or can I just install Win7 and start-up of the SSD, then delete what I want on the other hard drive?

  I suggest at the very least, you back up your personal folder in C:\Users\Your_AccountName on a hard drive external.

  Proceed to install Windows 7 on SSD, reactivate so you keep the 500 GB attached as a slave drive and format it. You could even redirect your personal folders to it after formatting it.

  How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
   
  1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
   
  (2) press the ENTER"" key.
   
  (3) select your "country" in the list.
   
  (4) choose the option "activate phone".
   
  (5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
   
  (6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.

  2. Now I'm going to buy a new desktop PC for home use

  4. My first question is: what is your suggestion?

  5. in case I choose Windows 8, MS will support not me, technically, by phone,
  If the SW is integrated in the PC (from a 'Mark' PC manufacturer)!

  6 but if I install, first of all, windows 7 (legally) and subsequently UPGRADE to Windows 8.

  MS will support me.

  7. my second question is: put a time and money aside, concerns

  If you have Windows XP, Windows 8 might be bit overwhelming, though, you can familiarise yourself with it. Personally, I'd go with Windows 7 If you can get it.

  That's right, you will get support from the manufacturer, because its their equipment. In addition, you can get support here in the forums.
