• Open an attachemnt of vista on a windows xp computer

  Ok... I have a computer 3 years top of the windows vista Desktop Edition home page. Now, I'm doing a power point/slide and save on my USB key and take it to the school to make the presintation on a windows xp and xp can not open it. So, I email my Professor the power point/slides from my vista as an attachment on her windows xp computer. She can read the email, but windows xp does not open the attachemt. I've had many people tell me that they have the same problem with the old programs from the window open the attachments of vista. What's up with that? I'm ready to go back to my old windows xp program. Help!

  Its nothing to do with your version of win, in order to open an attachment of office nor the version of Office must be installed on the PC of recipients or they would need the free viewer for MS
  So if you have Office 2007 and send a doc office 2007, the recipient either requires Office 2007 installed on their PC or they need the free viewer for Office 2007

• Windows Movie Maker 6.0 Vista immediately stops working when you try to open.

  Hello!

  I've been all around the internet trying to solve this problem, but nothing has worked so far.  When I try to start Windows Movie Maker 6.0 for Vista, (in general), it stops working at their opening saying the following:

  "Windows Movie Maker has stopped working".

  There has been a few times when it actually opens and I can work on my videos, however, it's very, very, rare and seems to happen randomly.

  I tried to open in safe mode, but it still fails to open.  I also tried to open .avi short and simple with WMM 6.0 files to see if it will be open, but that, generally, does not either.

  Once, I was able to open random and I have disabled all the filters on the Compatibility tab and temporarily activated only video filters that I needed.  That seemed to fix the problem for several days, and I could open Movie Maker 6.0 several times.  Sometimes it would freeze everything and save, or stop working when importing video files, but at least it would be open.  I was able to record some videos.  After a few days, my computer day and WMM 6.0 is more open more.  I don't know if yes or no update is the reason why Movie Maker 6.0 started crashing again, but it was the only thing that has changed on my computer while I could uncheck the Compatibility tab filters and open WMM 6.0. [Could uncheck all filters to be part of the problem?]

  I usually works with .mov files, and I read on how this type of file sometimes causes problems with Windows Movie Maker.  However, the problem normally occurs when I try to open the program (and if WMM opens, I can very well change .mov files).  I do not think that the file type is causing the crash, but I guess that's always a possibility...

  I also read that sometimes Windows Movie Maker 6.0 for vista doesn't work with all computers that have vista installed, and Windows Movie Maker 2.6 must be used to place.  Windows Movie Maker 2.6 is working fine on my computer, but it cannot change the .mov files, or record in HD.  I had horribly degrading the quality of the video with the conversions of files to use WMM 2.6.  Windows Movie Maker 6.0 is much better, on the rare occasions that it works.  Do you think I should use Windows Movie Maker 2.6 now?

  Here are two problem reports that appear more often when you try to open Windows Movie maker 6.0.  The window of support almost always said I need to update my computer again (even if there is no new update), or that it is a problem of security Data Execution Prevention.  Windows Movie Maker cannot be added to the list of exceptions to Data Execution Prevention, or I can check to see if the filters from the Compatibility tab are always disabled in the program, I don't know how to solve this problem...

  The "BEX" error happens much more frequently than the "APPCRASH" error  In addition, I have Windows Vista home premium installed and a 32-bit operating system.  I don't know how to read the problem reports, or if it's all the information you need.  I'm not very good with computers at all the... Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Very often, but not always, Code exception: c0000005 is a permissions access error, so have you tried right-clicking on the MM shortcut or .exe and selecting the option "Run As Administrator"?  Other times a reinstallation of the program crash can fix.  As you can not do with Movie Maker the next best option is to try the System File Checker.

• Windows Vista computer Internet

  I have a windows vista computer, about 7 years or more. The internet worked fine, then I restored my computer to factory. I can't connect to the internet more, I think I need to update my computer but I can't do with Internet. I tried to manually update the internet card by my laptop window 10 but I can't do it yet. I also have a map of the internet 2.0 Wireless usb. that no longer works. Sometimes with connections wireless and when I type the password in the unable to connect to this network said. so I uninstalled this card. and when I try to use a cable to connect, it connects but no internet access there. any ideas how to solve this problem?

  Open Device Manager and look at the network cards.  What cards are present and they have their drivers, or they are in the wrong with a yellow! the brand?  If no network adapters are present, it may be listed as an unknown device without driver or a network controller.   Device - Manager find unknown devices

  On the other PC, see the page Web of Support downloads for the PC model to download the network card on a flash key you are using (Ethernet or wireless).  Transferer transfer on the Vista PC, install the adapter and see if you can get online.  If there is more of a network LAN driver is draw in Device Manager, the machine using material identification or download them all and try to install one at a time.

  Do the same for all the other pilots missing in Device Manager.

  Once online, speed up Windows updates in order to conform to the date that they ceased to support Vista.

• Download error - cannot download anything on the windows vista computer.

  When I try to download anything, it says that Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\shockwave_Installer_Slim.exe '. Then he said, make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. I hope you can help me.

  Original title: download error

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  It seems that you have problems with downloading files on the windows vista computer.

  The description of the problem seems a little unclear and I wish I had a better understanding before you start working on it. I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.

  1. what browser you use on the computer?

  2. What is the exact full error message?

  3. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

  4. deal with this problem if you try to download all files from online?

  If you do this in the face of Internet Explorer help, I suggest that you should change the default download location and check if it helps.

  Method 1

  In internet explorer, you can change the default location.

  Here's how:

  a. open internet explorer.

  b. click on Tools , then select view downloads.

  c. downloads for window, click Options.

  d. now, enter the default download location and click on the OK button.

  Turn on the computer at the beginning of boot and check if the problem persists.

  Method 2

  Perform a clean boot to see if no third-party service is causing the problem.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

• How can I load the classic games such as Solitaire and FreeCell on my new Windows Vista computer?

  I just bought a new computer with Windows Vista business.  It comes with games, but not the classics that I'm used to.  I would like to be able to download classic Solitare and Free Cell.  Can you tell me where to get them and how to download them?  Thank you.

  joshuasmama,
  Well, I'm not familiar with this games has on the Business edition.  However if the games are available and all simply not loaded then you can load the as follows:

  Click Start > Control Panel > programs > "Turn Windows features on or off" (it is listed under the "programs and features")
   
  A window opens with a list of all Windows components that are available.  If it has a check mark next to it, then he is responsible. Then go to the 'Games' folder, click on the + to open the folder.  If the games you want are listed and unverified, then put a check mark next to them and click OK.  They will then arrange.

  If already, he has control and is not in your list of games, and then uncheck the box, click ok, restart, and then back in, check it out.

  Try and let us know what happens.
