• Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer

  Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer. I have it ready for the operating system but I need to download a copy so I can retrieve my CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive, so I can then bring to its system and reinstall the XP and then if she wants that we can get a windows 8. I use windows 8 on this system, I bought a few months ago and it's satisfying, but I don't understand why when I got it I could do things like using the keyboard of the screen with my fingers, but now I can't even use the keyboard mouse. It won't work at all. In a way I found it better that way at the beginning because I do a lot of typing and it would freeze until I was constantly stressed. I returned to Windows 7 mode I think but not sure.  All I know is that these two things have never worked correctly, so if they are still under warranty I will bring to the Future Shop and maybe they can fix it. I wish I could turn on and off easily so it does not interfere with my writing and study of a language second.

• Cannot complete the Windows XP installation.

  After a problem started that I could not fix,

  I formatted the drive C. Unfortunately, I then started to install windows xp on a disk that I don't have the correct product code. Therefore, I can't past the Setup screen to halfway. Now I have the correct windows xp disc with the product code, but cannot re - format the drive to start a new installation. Any help would be welcome. Thank you

• Can I safely remove the Windows.old files?

  What's up guys?, I have a Compaq Presario supplied with the Windows Vista operating system, 32-bit. I backed up all my drivers on DVD and I downloaded a clean copy of Vista using an ISO on a DVD burner. I reinstalled the new copy put in my original product key, and he agreed. I reinstalled my drivers and all seems to work fine. I transferred all my data, mp3, jpeg, etc. for Flash readers and/or new programs on the new OS. The reason for the new OS was a virus infection which partially damaged the registry.  I really want to keep these files in the system for obvious reasons. Can I safely delete the files "Windows.old" and what would be the best way to do it?

  1. Question

  When I opened the window "save the Page under", the drop-down box file name indicates the files that have been saved a long time ago. It is not cleared by a function 'clear history' that I can find. How can I erase this?

  Hello.

  I think this is a related issue of Windows, because it is the Manager to save the windows file that we are talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help with this one, I think. You expect to be able to delete entries simply by touching delete on your keyboard when they are concentrated (that is how it goes for the removal of the form entries specific autocomplete in Firefox), but I have not tried.

  I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

  You have installed Service Pack 3?

  Alternatively, download the standalone installer from here:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=24

  Don't worry it is said that it is for HER and the developers. It's the same one you can download normally from the Windows Update site.

  Windows Update blocks access if the user does not have the latest Service Pack installed.

• How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?

  How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?  I have already reinstalled Windows 7 from the CD, but that has not solved my problems.  When I put the factory CD in my CD player, it won't always boot from the CD.  When I put my Windows 7 Ultimate CD in the CD drive, it doesn't always start from the CD.         I realize that the reformatting is not always necessary, but I caught a few viruses (despite anti-virus running) and I need to start with a clean hard drive.

  You must go into the BIOS and change the boot on CD order

  How to get into your BIOS? It is not dependent on Windows, but on what he
  motherboard/BIOS card that you have. In fact, you need access to the
  BIOS before Windows begins to start. A common method is to press
  the key delete when you turn on first, but this is not necessarily true
  for your computer. Watch the display carefully when you start first;

• When you use the Windows XP Mode integration, it fails; maintains a new attempt and finally I have to cancel

  When you use the Windows XP Mode integration, it fails; continues to try again and finally I cancel it. The same newspaper for Virtual PC on the host computer has the following error message: Windows XP Mode integration error 'failed to connect in place inside the "Windows XP Mode" VM on channel 0 on the... named pipe endpoint XP, TCP port 3389 with the 0x8007274c error mode. This error occurs every time, but I don't know why he is successful a few times and sometimes fails. This question was in another post and mentioned the removal and resettlement components of integration, which I've tried, but it did not help. I also checked that I have the latest version of the integration components (v. 14.1.7600.16403). I have a separate instance of Virtual PC that I brought over my old XP machine and it was never a problem with integration. The problem with the image in XP Mode occurs also, regardless of whether or not the other Virtual PC image runs. Only the image of the XP Mode has this problem. I suspect it's perhaps a conflict of TCP port in the named pipe, but if so, I don't know how to solve. Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to offer advice.

  Thanks for the reply. I tried to reinstall the integration features in the past, but the problem has come back at a later date. A few days after I posted this request for assistance, I needed to log out of Windows 7, so I hibernated the XP Mode image. Then, I opened a session in Windows 7 and thought I'd give it a try once again, and it worked this time! I did nothing special. So hopefully that will happen in the future, just as it went and on the past few months. Enjoyed your attempt to offer advice, however!

• Hello... can I remove the windows.old folder?

  IM installing my windows 8 from the installation of costum (im not not formatting my hard drives).
  some of the software I used was installed there. but since unneed software is much more software I've used, I want to
  to remove this file... it is therefore normal to remove this folder? If so, how?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  No need to worry, we're here to help you and guide you in the right direction.

  The windows.old folder is the old system files. Be sure to copy all the files that you can out of the Windows.old folder before you delete it. Once deleted, they are gone. You must be logged in as an administrator to be able to do the steps.

  The Windows.old folder contains the following folders:

  • Windows
  • "Documents and Settings".
  • "Program Files."

  The Windows folder stores mainly programs and files that are required to run the previous version of Windows.

  The "Documents and Settings" folder stores mainly the 'My Documents' folder and the Favorites folder. In addition, the "Documents and Settings" folder stores the office files that have been used by the previous version of Windows.

  The "Program Files" folder stores mainly programs have been installed on the earlier version of Windows.

  There are two ways to delete the windows.old folder. Here is the simple step.

  Method 1: Delete the C drive.

  (a) open Windows Explorer, click computer.

  (b) select C drive and you will find the Windows.old folder.

  (c) make a right click on the folder and click Remove.

   

  Method 2: Remove the "Windows.old" folder using disk cleanup

  (a) open Disk Cleanup by clicking on the button Windows + C to open the bar of charms. Click on the charm of the Search .

  (b) type cleanmgr in Search Applications box in the right pane, and then click cleanmgr.exe (disk cleanup) in the left pane to open it.

  (c) If you are prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

  (d) in the Disk Cleanup dialog box, on the Disk Cleanup tab, click clean up system files.

  (e) If you are again prompted to choose a drive, click the drive that you have just installed Windows on and then click OK.

  (f) select the Previous Windows installations check box and the other check boxes for files that you want to remove, and then click OK.

  (g) in the message that appears, click delete files.

  Let us know the status of the issue. If you need help, I'll be more than happy to help you.

• Why Windows 8 allow me to remove the Windows.old folder?

  I upgraded my computer to Windows 7 to Windows 8, a few months ago, when Windows 8 came. It is my understanding that when you perform an upgrade of Windows from one version to the other, it can save a lot of files and folders under the folder Windows.old. And I understand that you can delete the Windows.old folder.

  In other words, I don't think.

  The reason why I do not think it is because whenever I tried to delete Windows.old, it stops for me with this error:

  

  And when I said to 'Try Again' he begins from the beginning? HE DOES ALL THIS TIME! This should not do this, as I did do procedure on other machines that I've updated and he's NEVER done that, but not on this machine? Why in hell does?

  Hi Rod

  You must use the disk cleanup utility to remove the Windows.old folder. See the following article for step by step instructions.
