• Error code: Trying 80072F8F update windows after fresh install - Dell Vostro 1510 - (Windows 7 x 64 PRO)

  Hello, I'm trying to update windows after installation and I get error code 80072F8F.  After looking for other pages, I checked my BIOS date and time are correct and Windows as well.

  Laptop: Dell VOSTRO 1510
  Windows 7 x 64 PRO

  I already activated Windows (silly me to check everything actually works) and I need a solution as soon as POSSIBLE.

  I needed Windows update to try and fix a number display adapter (card intel not giving not external display resolutions)- but that's another question.

  I hope that there is a fix out there somewhere in the ether.

  No anti-virus installed at the present time, no anti-spyware, no firewall.

  Repost: What were the problems you are experiencing that you thought that a "new facility" could solve?

  The foregoing notwithstanding, and since you neglected to install an antivirus application...

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

• How to save a copy of Windows XP that has been created by an image?

  I used 'Image for Linux' to create an image of a PC with Windows XP, SP3.  With that done, I can copy the image to a new PC and it works fine (assuming that I stay within the limits of the PC HAL).

  My problem is that I don't have to enter a new key of Windows XP when I installed the image on another PC. for example, I use a license of Windows XP on two PCs.  Since I want to be legitimate on my software license, I tried to activate Windows XP license to new PC - but the computer says that the license is already activated.  So it is logical that the new PC would react like that - I put the picture of an activated copy of Windows on a new PC, the new copy of Windows must also think that it is enabled.

  All this brings me to my original question: how to save a copy of Windows XP that has been created by an image?

  Hi RichardMatt,
   
  I recommend you contact the customer service of Microsoft for queries on activation for clarity.

• FSX says I need administrator right to save the texture

  Hello microsoft,.

  I posted a question similar to this one before, got a response, but did not get specific answers. See, when I download the texture file and to copy them all, cut and paste, after all you're supposed to save the file and start FSX. But when I save the file, he denies and says I need administrator rights to save the file when I am the administrator of the computer. Please give me an answer to this and help. Thank you.

• After I downloaded beta Security Essentials, my computer say suddenly that he was not a genuine copy of Windows running and locked up.

  original title: the customer service is horrible

  After I downloaded beta Security Essentials, my computer say suddenly that he was not a genuine copy of Windows running and locked up.

  I called last night and got a foreign person has attempted to resolve the issues and could not, so he told me that I had to call back after 06:00 to speak to someone in the United States.
  So I called back today at 06:00 and got one of those who are running around things voice control that didn't fix my problem at all. After much effort, I got a live person. Again, it was a foreign person (why make me wait all night and get up early to call?!?!)
  This woman told me to restart. I told her that I had rebooted about 10 times since the day before and each time he took forever to load back up the box that tells me that I need to activate windows. She has reiterated, "I ask you to restart." I knew he wouldn't do ANYTHING, but I did and after the session it forever (as I told him it would be) she told me that I had to remind once I got up the box again. I called after that I got the box AND HAD TO START OVER again ONCE with someone new. Of course, she was trying to pass me to someone else.
  Of course, after all this trouble, no MS sells a product key for Vista, it is abandoned. So I need to go buy Windows 7 and she told me that I'll LOSE EVERYTHING when I install it - all my documents and family photos are gone forever. Why not take my money and sell me a product key instead of let me in trouble?
  The worst ever undertaken. Of course, MS doesn't care because they have a monopoly.

  You should not need to buy anything except the recovery disc for your machine (if the built-in recovery partition does not work), unless you really need Win 7 for some reason any.

  That being said - the COA sticker on your machine is readable? If Yes, then you should have no problem with a Windows 7 upgrade version - but you will need to either use activation by phone, or installation methods described here...

• Why is my computer when I turn it on saying Dell Dock language file has failed to load?

  Why is my computer when I turn on it saying: Dell Dock language file has failed to load, which is necessary for its future operation up and when I try to go bad, he says iapplication? Is could someone please tell me if it of a problem or not. Thank you very much. E-mail: * address email is removed from the privacy *

  You must have Dell Dock for your computer works correctly.  It's just a convenience tool that Dell put on their computers.  If you want a working version, you can download here

  http://www.delldock.com/ .

  Don't forget there is no other things that got corrupt however.  Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  Good luck.

• Photos app says "Save as" instead of "Save a Copy".

  Previously, I could 'Save a copy' when editing photos from my SD card. He would then store the picture on the SD card. Now, it only let's me "save under" and I have to name the file, so there is an extra step. The edited photo IS NOT store on the SD card, it only stores the picture in the photos on the computer application.

  This change has occurred in a few hours. I used the app to edit pictures and when I came back from dinner to make more that she had changed.

  Hi Ali,

• Updates to Windows after the restoration of the system

  Yesterday morning I tried to turn my computer laptop sony vaio (vista 32 bit) and received an error message saying that unable to start Windows.  I finally had to do a system restore complete (fortunately I was able to save my files personal & photos) after having exhausted all other options.  What a mess!  Here's the problem: running Windows update there are 71 important updates being downloaded, but I don't see anything on SP1 or SP2.  Most of the updates are "security update for vista."  I don't see updates for SP2 components.

  Should I install the updates that my computer downloads or should I first install SP1 and 2 via the microsoft Web site?  I really don't need more computer problems right now.  I apologize if someone has already asked this question, I tried to search before posting.

  Yes, that's the way it should be done. In fact, you will need to run several update scans to get SP1 and 2 and current.  There is usually at least some mandatory pre-required updates that must be installed before a SP.

  Yes, it is long and slow and painful. It's 'the joy of Windows '... (smile). It is also why, after you get windows patches to update you should make a backup copy of full Image (actually more that one is a good idea) using a tool that runs from a bootable CD/DVD.  In this way, in the future, you'll have a recovery point that will work around this pain. I also like to make another copy of the image after you have reinstalled all my basic applications, such as office and public services.

  I also suggest that it is a good time to consider to repartition your hard drive. Minimum partitioning that I love, this is C: for the operating system and applications and a separate drive D: for "personal" data files In this way when you need to re - install windoze once again it's less traumatic. In fact, I have my personal folders 'Profile' redirected to the data reader. Even if I can not not reuse in the re-installation of things like the old office are always there to return.

  i, ve got an optiplex gx520 dell, it's this model able to copy or burn videos on my pc on a dvd disc.

  If a DVD burner, it can. Look at your CD/DVD drive on the computer - it can burn DVDs if it says:

  "DVD + R/RW"
  "DVD + R/RW"
  'DVD + R'
  'DVD-R '.
  "DVDR.
  or "DVD writer".

  He can't if it says "DVD-ROM" or "CD".

  If you need a burning program here are those that are free:

• Get windows Vista to reinstall on my computer

  Original title: Getting windows 7 to install in my computer

  My laptop with windows vista crashed. He came with a cd to reintall the operating system and I did not know that I should make a cd image and system restore. The flagship product is clearly printed on the bottom of my computer. I tried to buy a cd of windows vista retail, but the only option available in internet is oem versions, which I have no idea how to install. The microsoft Web page does not show an option to buy older versions of windows. Given that my laptop is 5 years old, the new version of windows 8 will be not possible to install. What can I do to solve my problem? Is there a website where I can buy windows vista to reinstall in my pc? Thank you for any information you can give me to fix my computer.

  Thank you for your information.  I'm not an experienced person in the facilities of computers, download so the procedure you describe to download windows from the internet links will not help me.  I don't have anyone who could borrow me a cd of windows.  So my only option is to find where I can buy a full commercial copy to do a clean install.  Amazon only offers oem versions and I don't know how to do the installation which is supposed to be done in a new computer.  Mine is old and already had a windows operating system that unfortunately crashed before that I made a backup of the system.

  Sort of, I really appreciate your help. Best regards.

  It is understandable that the download and make your own disks can become a daunting task.

  There is no need to buy a new edition of the sales at retail.

  There are still two other suggestions I gave you and the restore partition method:

  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.

  It is regrettable that none of your friends have this DVD but if you happen to meet a friend or co-worker who is one that you can borrow and use a DVD of Microsoft Vista, 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

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  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.
