Windows and recovery trashed on Swedish Pavilion with Vista Home Premium recovery disc?

I don't have a model number, but it has the same chassi as the pavilion elite m9300z design, but it has a 64 AMD live! processor.

The recovery was not borked, I just did not give the key to recovery a good listener.

  • Cannot restore a Pavilion from HP with Vista Home Premium a1520e

    Try to restore an HP Pavilion a1520e with Vista Home Premium using the recovery disks that came with it. Cooldown increased to 99%, then stops with a message "Error 002" ridiculous. Tried the 2nd HDD, reset the BIOS, 2nd set of disks, H/p unable to fix without sending any box and pay more than it is worth. I have all receipts and simply want a legitimate o/s that I can restore.

    Hello

    The problem is not with Windows, it's a hardware error OR you do not have the right Vista HP OEM
    installation media.

    1. check that the disks you have are correct for this model of CV. HP can sell you cheap the
    installation media real cheap since you already own windows.

    2. Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (at both ends, where this is possible)-in fact
    delete and replace - do not just tight. Clean the dust bunnies and make sure that the vents are clear.

    By chance the need to re - install caused by malware?

    Hope this helps and happy holidays.

  • 64 bit sytem with vista home premium which has been randomly locking up and freezing. The error is event 6008.

    I have an ACER aspire x 3200 64 bit sytem with vista home premium which has been randomly locking up and freezing. The only mistakes were event 6008 with a description of the stop system prior to (time) on (date) was not planned.
    When these errors originally occurred, I returned the system to acer and they installed a new hard drive. After updating the vista system blockages continue 30 times over a period of 3 months. Acer sent me a new disk image on 3 disks that I have installed and updated on 11 October. There is no blocking until the 10/27, 10/28, and for the 3rd time today.
    The closed unexpected gives a blue screen if I use the locking system to the top. I have to hold the power to restart when the system crashes.
    Can someone help me solve this problem?

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.  But I guess it's too late for this for so long that there are probably no so old restore points.

    If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

    If this does not work, try to start in safe mode (repeatedly hit F8 key so that the start and go in safe mode with networking).  Then we will check some of your system files:

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and try to solve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a cause.

    If this does not work, then please post repetitive errors in Event Viewer on the stop (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic40108.html.  From what I understand, there is none of the events (which surprises me because a freeze should certainly generate an error event).

    If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. If other procedures do not work, it is almost certain to work (but you NEED a disc).  You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version on system with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled cane and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to do a slipstream drive as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

    I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

    Good luck!

  • I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64-bit, with 8 GB RAM and when I try to start Zoo Tycoon 2, he won't play, said that I have no memory system.

    I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64 - bit, with 8 GB of RAM, and when I try to run Zoo Tycoon 2, I get the following error message:

    You need at least 256 MB of system memory to run Zoo Tycoon 2. (0Mo detected)

    Y at - it a patch? I have read many "Workaround" and none of them work. I tried to run in Windows XP compatibility mode and it didn't work.

    Hey tprefling,
     
    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
     
    Right-click on the zt.exe file and choose "Run as Administrator" to launch the program.
     
    See if you are able to play the game.

    If this does not work, turn your computer to clean the start State and see if the fgame plays very well.

    To put your computer in a clean boot, follow these steps:
     
    Note: If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
     
    1. sign the computer by using an account with administrator rights.
     
    2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
     
    3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)
     
    4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.
    Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
     
    5. click OK and then click on restart.
     
    For more information about the clean boot, see the link below:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
     
    In addition, change the size of virtual memory and see that helps. For more information, see:

  • 0x8007001b with Vista Home Premium Center backup and restore backup failure

    I have my Toshiba Satellite M205-S7452 with Vista Home Premium for about 8 months, and November 2007, backup windows, and restore program worked flawlessly. I was able to back up my music, photos and documents to a DVD on a regular basis. But then I started having an error halfway back up that says "drive cannot find the sector requested" with the 0x8007001b error code. It seems that the backup works partially - there are files on the DVD player but I don't know if it ends or not. I tried to do some research on Google and it seems that there is other people affected by this error, but I could not find suggested patches.

    Hi jennielah,

    Please use the Forum of the community for Vista.

    If it has started, use the system restore back to a point before you start. See below for instructions.

    If you can do that I have a work around you. Your specific error seems to relate to update failures, not only the Windows updates but the various failures of update.

    The job is to save it to your hard drive and copy the files on the DVD after the fact.

    I hope this helps.

    Please let us know if we can do something else.

    The System Restore tool

    Other troubleshooting methods, such as using the System File Checker tool, cannot solve the problem. If they do not resolve the problem, and the problem you are experiencing started occurring recently, you can use the System Restore tool. Using this tool, you can restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

    The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start , type system restore in the Search box, and then click System Restore in the programs list.

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

    1. In the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point , and then click Next .

    2. In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next .

    3. Click Finish .

      The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    Here is a link to the system restore, if you would like more information

  • I need to know the file current date/time number stamp and the version of "spoolsv.exe" in Vista Home Premium 32-bit with SP2.

    I need to know the file current date/time number stamp and the version of "spoolsv.exe" in Vista Home Premium 32-bit with SP2. My spooler file got corrupted and I need to know what that the stamp of date/time on the latest version of the file: spoolsv.exe. I did a search on my hard drive and found 8 copies of the file with 7 different dates. I need to know which copy in my file C:\windows\system32\. I suspect that the problem was caused by some kind of malware. I think that some of the different versions on my machine of the initial installation of the Vista, SP1 and SP2. 3 copies that would explain. I tried all the suggestions in this forum and several others. I tried sfc/scannow and it simply replaces the corrupted file by another. I understand how works this file and a simple copy will do the trick if I knew that the file to use. I know that I don't want to go back to the first version of 2006.  BTW... my symptoms are all my printers have disappeared, and when I try to 'add a new printer' I get an error message saying that my spooler service does not work. When I opened my services window it shows that indeed, he is arrested, but I will not start because the description column contains only the code garbled machine indicating that the file is corrupted, or it may contain a virus. I had been using F-Prot until this virus got by and now I use AVG. I scanned my machine with several cleaning packages and it is is more infected, but I worry that from this corrupt file grow something. I know that the problem is not with my printers or drivers, because everyone on my home network can print on all of my printers. None of the people I know are on Vista 32 bit. They are all running System 7 or XP. I have XP, except that a few years ago I suffered from the "Syndrome of Pepsi" on my laptop and when I bought a new HP, it came with Vista.

    I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed.  My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.  I have a new full version of Windows 7 Pro SP1 with an activation key.  I have experience update to Win 10 of Win 7, but worry about the installation of Win 7 over Vista.  I guess I have to do a clean install.  There is no problem to meet the minimum requirements of 10.  Can someone give me some advice on the start-up of the conversion of Win 7?  Just insert the disk?  Everything has been backed up and it's ready to go!  Thank you.

    Since the family migration to Windows Vista Premium to Windows 7 Professional it will install a clean place, why not simply use your Windows 7 Professional product key to perform a custom Windows 10 Pro install from the go?

    always check the compatibility of vista programs on the link below

    If a program is compatible with vista you can try right click on the setup.exe, and then selecting run as administrator

    It is not compatible with vista, you can try running it in a previous operating system mode

    This does not work for all programs

    Hi S RAGAN,

    I suggest to perform the clean boot on your computer and check.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    To perform a clean boot on a computer, follow these steps.

    1. click on 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.

    2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

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

    4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

    5. click on OK.

    6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

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

    Please follow the system in the boot environment. If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to an application or a service, we have disabled. You can use the MSCONFIG tool again to reactivate the disabled one by one element to find the culprit.

    If your issue is resolved, follow the how to determine what is causing the problem section in KB article to narrow down the exact source.
