The date is 09/15/11
Last night I was invited to be updated.The update installation started with 1 of the 10 with the standard message, "Please do not feed where unplug your machine."Last night I went to bed with updated installation 10 10 always on the screen. The blue icon was still running as the white dots incremented after the "10 out of 10.This morning, it's still sitting on the same blue screen icon still spinning - growing points.Anyone can shed some light on this. If I stop and restart, which is perhaps my only option, what do I do if I can't restart or you end up in safe mode?Thanks in advance.JoeDon't want to seem ungrateful, but it was not useful. I ain't under Windows Vista Business, Windows 7 and my PC has not frozen during a restart after installing updates, it froze during updates. Thanks anyway. I rebooted and was lucky to start normally.

Windows Vista reinstall without installation disc (Acer Aspire 6920 G)
Hello
I would like to ask for help. About a year ago I bought this laptop with the original Windows Vista validation but key without a Windows Vista installation disc. Now, I would like to reinstall my system.
I downloaded the file .iso Windows Recovery (of size 120 MB), it burned down and tried to reinstall Windows. I got to the stage where I type the validation key, but always when I typed that key, it appeared that the key is invalid (I checked this certificate stuck on the laptop and it seems to be original).
Thanks in advance
This is NOT a Vista reinstall the drive, it's a record of STARTUP repair!
Vista Media recovery obtaining and/or using the Vista recovery on your computer Partition t put it back to factory settings.

In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11, Acer is normally Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

Cannot start Windows Vista, even dvd installation
I started my Dell Inspiron 1420 under Windows Vista Home Premium in place and led to a warning screen indicating an error in startup. As stated, I started from my Vista installation DVD. I ran the Startup Repair tool, and it failed. The event log has been as follows:

I then ran the System Restore tool and it failed. I then ran the Memory Diagnostics tool, and it found no errors. Given the lack of success, I decided to reformat and reinstall. I used the Advanced Options in Windows Vista Setup DVD to remove the Partitions, format the drive and install Windows.
Post installation Windows started successfully the first time but was running slowly. I tried to download the drivers from the CD of Installation of Dell, but automatic execution failed, and when I tried to copy individual files, it also failed. I decided to reboot the machine, but instead of Windows, I got a blank screen with white cursor blinking in the upper left corner. I tried to reboot from the Installation DVD and once the progress opening white Windows files completed bar, I was presented with a black screen and a cursor again.
Since then, I was not able to start any CD/DVD successfully. What should I do now? I am happy to reformat and try again, but I can not even on the screen to do.
Help! Please?
Hello Nick_98,
If we are hanging up when you use the installation disc, then the installation disc has problems or hardware on the computer problems that must be addressed before moving forward, there
I advise to use diagnostics provided by your manufacturer to check for hardware problems.
Please note that if the equipment passes the test, it simply means that no error has been detected it. If we turn to the top of the sensitivity on the diagnosis, we can find errors.

How can I get a Windows Vista x 64 installation CD?
My laptop (HP Pavilion dv9000) comes preinstalled with Vista, and now the guy who repaired it gave a sort of trial version of Windows 7. I really want to go back to Vista, as I have the product key and all.
Hi Zoco,
Since your HP Pavilion dv9000 laptop is pre-installed with Windows Vista, you must get in touch with HP support to get the Vista install disc to perform the installation or to get help to perform a complete restore to factory settings.
Note: Make sure that you have your data backed up and secured prior to reinstalling or restoring to factory.

Download is complete without error. Installation proceeds as usual. Upon restart, steps 1 and 2/3 have been completed. On step 3 of 3, however, the PC does not seem to do 'something'. It was at this stage 'hung up' more than 2 hours. On 2 attempts to restart the PC, he returned to the same stage of the installation and is still 'nothing. ' Only she can complete this third step of the installation process. Not sure what to do next.
Can anyone help please?

Well, if your system is slow is not because of the Security Center! It might be because of spyware or malware so, first make sure that your system is clean:
Do using the analysis:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/ recommended
http://www.SurfRight.nl/en/downloads/ recommended
http://www.systweak.com/AntiSpyware/
I recommend avira or avast as antivirus (personally, I think that mcafee and norton slows down your system)
After that:
go to msconfig (type in the search box in the start menu, and then press enter) then prepare your computer to clean boot by disabling all startup items and any of the services of windows, and then restart your computer. See if it makes a difference? If she did then you should know which ones caused to slow down your pc.
at least reduce your startup programs hollow msconfig (type in there search box in Start menu, and then press enter)
try to check your drive for errors and also run the SFC (sfc) system through cmd (run cmd as administrator, and then type sfc/scannow)
use ccleaner to get rid of junkfiles http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
preform disk cleanup and defragmentation in order to improve the performance of your system.
do not use unistall programs u.
Make sure your windows is uptodate and drivers work correctly and that they are as uptodate.
Use http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html to protect your pc against spyware, adware etc and keep it uptodate then use firefox as your browser
only use the block announcement more, no script and WOT for safer web browsing for firefox.

Windows Vista KB2887069 update installs, error code: 80070233
I think I downloaded successfully several more recent updates that made the update of obsolete KB2887069. Because I have successfully downloaded KB2887069 still could not install it because it becomes obsolete compared to my other updates downloaded, I now continue to receive notifications, asking me to restart my computer for KB2887069 to take effect. When I shut down and restart, I keep getting a notice of default download of KB2887069 has been installed in vain. How can I get rid of the update KB2887069 after that I downloaded it already. Because it is not installed, I cannot uninstall it but because I downloaded it, I'm constantly bothered by the notice asking me to restart so KB2887069 will install. Thank you!

If Vista Business pre-installed, so you can have a "Recovery" partition on the hard drive. If so, then check the user manual to find that button (usually an F key) support during the initial boot process / screen in order to start the recovery process.
Your other option is to call the manufacture of ther PC support team and ask them to send you the recovery media.
