    Hello

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    See how best suits you.

    This can help you:

    http://www.heidoc.NET/Joomla/technology-science/Microsoft/57-Windows-Vista-direct-download-links

    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 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 on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought 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

    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.

At first, I thought it was my Norton 360 Security, but after 2 hours in contact with them, I'm still in the same position.

    I had Vista Premium Home Basic addition with my Toshiba U400. Due to some problems, I had to format my laptop. Now, after the system, I realized that I don't have the recovery disk. I have the genuine cd key, but no operating system. Can you please let me know how to set the vista with this genuine key.

    Hello

    It is Vista Home Basic, Vista Home Premium, not a combination of the two you have.

    If you ever have a disc, you would likely have a recovery partition to reinstall from.

  • After using Firefox it will not - I have to re-boot (OS = Vista Premium))

    I have Firefox version 25.0.1 and my OS is Vista Premium. My first use of Firefox works normally and correctly. However, after I used Firefox and closed the web page, if I try to go to another link, I get a message that Firefox is still open and recommend that I close Firefox or restart my computer.
    I'm unable to close Firefox and start Task Manager does not indicate that it is running. The only option that I found works is to re-boot the computer which is annoying.
    I deal with a lot of confidential activities related to maladministration issues so I much prefer to use Firefox which I consider to be more secure than most or all of the other programs for internet use.
    I was afraid that one option may be that I am being hacked? (I doubt than that, but it must be in sudden possible reasons for the strange behavior of Firefox) I think that I've updated Firefox a week ago, which has not erased the problem described. I'm on Firefox in anonymous mode using security for the given reason. I recently edited "Cause & Effect" part 4 on organophosphates which was distributed to the United Kingdom; U.S..; The Germany and the India who says that passengers and military crew, personnel and air don't receive the correct treatment for toxic poison. But it's not an advertisement: the publication is free of the British Library. But the victims are many and I want to be able to work effectively to prevent more unnecessary deaths.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reinstall Vista premium edition

    I have a new computer, clean my registry, and something has been deleted which was not supposed to.    Now, my computer accepts no updates at all. aid coulum says I need to reinstall windows vista premium to fix. Pretty simple.  problem is when I got my new PC out of the box, vista is already installed and the product key is on the side of my Tower. There is no disk that I can remember, and now I'm naïve what to do.    I really want to spend another $ 150, I don't have, something that I wouldn't really need. Is it possible to reinstall vista online if I can prove it is mine and noone elses?         Help, please!

    Most new computers come with a version of Vista recovery on a partition of your hard drive.

    You need to read the documentation that came with your computer to find out how to start the recovery.

    Normally you have to press a button or two while the computer starts up, then ask if you want to restore the computer to factory settings.

    Note If you do this will delete EVERYTHING on your hard drive (just what you put on the computer SINCE you bought it).

    If this is not available contact the company you purchased the computer turned off and ask them for a set of recorvery CD / DVD.

    One last thing.

    DO NOT PLAY WITH THE REGISTRY WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

    In fact

    DO NOT PLAY WITH THE REGISTRY. FULL STOP.

    Just make sure you get the good dvd vista

    There are two microsoft vista DVD produced is 32-bit and the other is 64-bit

    most of the computers came with 32 bit installed unless he asked a 64-bit

    and if you happen to also have a recovery on your computer partition acer laptop, you can start the recovery to factory standards by pressing Alt + F10 at startup

    There used to be a password you need to enter too

    It was 5 or 6 zeros

    If necessary, contact acer for this information

  • Vista premium operating system? need to use AVG anti virus and pc tune up?

    I have an older laptop OS Vista premium and AVG anti virus and p c tune up.

    I realize are now 8.1 W not the product AVG; can I rely on Windows defender disc cleanup, Defragmenter (and others I don't know) to protect the laptop? and remove AVG as I did on my most recent portable W8.1 mind?

    Thank you

    FOR EXAMPLE

    Hello TedGibney,

    As in earlier versions of Windows, for example, the Bill said Windows Defender, Vista only acts as an Anti-Spyware. It was only in later additions of Windows that Microsoft has added anti virus ability.

    As you have used AVG before I would suggest that you follow this anti virus application, when you are running Windows Vista.

    About PC Tune Up it would be wise to not use that, like many Tune Up / registry cleaners these applications can cause more problems than they actually heal.
