  • Product ID of Windows Vista-Home Premium 2007 Service Pack 2 is with an OEM product key.

    Hello & thanks to anyone who reads this message & can help.

    It's what I've done all I wanted to do was to change my old email address on my windows mail to another email address.

    I contacted my internet provider technical support to change the addresses e-mail & settings so I was able to access the e-mail address that I wanted to use windows mail. They tried their new settings, they recently tried, but had no luck, so they have tried using their old/normal parameters & always been unlucky? He kept coming up with an error for the two parameters & not could not send the test email that he was trying to send back to me.

    My internet provider tech support guy said, maybe I had a virus (that I know that I don't have), or maybe something wrong with my settings for windows mail or something is wrong with windows or the program & contact line of microsoft support.

    Microsoft technical support said they cannot help me because I have an OEM product key & if I wanted to get help through windows I had to pay money to get help or contact with this site I am trying now.

    I don't know what I would do in the future? I always update my laptop with the updates of windows/microsoft who cross & always am aware constantly check & make all my microsoft security essentials for updates & scans?

    I hope someone can help me with my problem & understand what I wrote?

    I have to update my system or programs to have & to the best software/programs & do what I originally planned to do with my emails?

    Hello

    As Vista is preinstalled on your computer (OEM license), Microsoft charges you for support if you use them. They had good reason to send you to the Microsoft answers Forums

    The way you must have Windows Mail put in place is to use the e-mail address and other parameters as your ISP (Internet Service Provider) gives you; not an e-mail address that you want to use.

    They are the ones that provide all the information for you.

    You need them: parameters Username, Password, mailserver and mail out Servier

    Here is the information from Microsoft on how to set up Windows Mail:

    You don't say which is your Internet access provider.

  • Problems after doing a clean install of Vista Home Premium and service pack 2

    I see that others have the same problem as me, but there is no way to comment (that I can see) on the thread I've read.  After a lot of problems, I did a clean install of VISTA Home Premium (came with my Dell PC) and when I installed service pk2, all of the same problems that led me to do a clean install appeared.  I can't the computer to recognize and install the keyboard and the mouse of the blue tooth. (Don't tell me to contact the manufacturer, because they came w / the computer and say "Dell" on them!)  He told me that the enumerator does not work.  Then I launched Quicken, and when I tried to save a registry check for print, he gave me the msg "Quicken launcher has stopped working".  He was a key reason I did a clean install.  The only improvement is that I can at least open Quicken, which he would not let me do before.  How to uninstall service pack 2?

I backed up all my files on DVD, I don't care if I lose all the programs that I can always download them later.  Basically I want is that it was when I brought home the first time.  I searched high and low for the original disc of Vista but no luck.  I do not have people upgrade at any time, but I was not able to find a definitive answer about it online.  Not too complicate it again but I have 4 GB of ram and processor can run 64-bit, and I have 32-bit curently I'm sure you know where I'm going with that.  I know a little about how to do it, but want reasurance and direction from someone who knows hit safe and ready to help.  Any person who get end to this nightmare for me will be really appreciated.

    Shaun

    Contact the manufacturer to obtain a set of recovery discs original (for a fee) and use them to make the initial installation.  Activate it.  Then you can do the upgrade and activate that.  You must install the original operating system in order to install the upgrade.  If you are going from 32 bits to 64 bits that cannot be done with an upgrade - which requires complete and clean installation.

    Here is the Microsoft policy on replacement software; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246.

    I hope this helps.

  • just bought ghostbusters game pc, but it is very slow on my WINDOWS VISTA Home premium... of suggestions?

    I installed the game ghostburters on windows vista Home premium with service Pack 1 and it runs very slowly, I tried the upgrade a few things bo nothing helps.

    whay can I do to improve the speed?

    Well, that may depend on how fast your computer is.  Games have the system requirements listed on the box or the Web site that you downloaded from.  Your computer should generally be at or better than the recommended settings.  Otherwise games will run slowly or not work.  If the game runs slow, in general, you can buy a graphics card faster to make it go more quickly, but it depends greatly on this kind of material you have in your computer now.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium update problem step 3 of 3-100% complete

    My Windows Vista Home Premium began the automatic update, reached the point of view "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3-100% complete.". Do not turn off your computer. »

    Now he's just running for hours with this screen showing...

    I can't say if this update will end finally alone, or if there is a problem and I should just reboot.

    How long should I wait before abandoning me and shut down the computer?

    Thank you.

    Hi JIB1955,

    Thank you for visiting the forums of answers.microsoft.com.

    It's been a while, we can think that the update is stuck and will not continue any further.  You can press Ctrl, Alt & Del and open Task Manager.  You should see the update on the Application tab, and you can select it and press end task.
    Click on the start ORB > Control Panel > programs and features, on the left, select view installed updates and see if the update that was being Setup finished installing.  If it does not have and does not appear on the list, you can restart your computer and try to install the update mode without failure.

    To do this, restart your pc and even if your pc is booting press the key F8 on your keyboard to enter the Advanced Boot Options menu.  On the Advanced Boot Options menu, select Safe Mode and press ENTER.
    Your computer will boot mode safe by using only the basic drivers and services, hopefully allowing Windows Update to complete the installation of the update, you are having problems with.

    Please let us know if you make any progress this way
