Windows Vista Home Basic with service Pack 2, support is complete and I have no way to buy windows 7, what am I I have to do, is there any free as I can get, any free solution to this problem?

Already have windows live essentials + Microsoft security essentials, but I want and need to proceed. Please please help?

Windows vista 32-bit update service pack 1 error 80073712 when I try to install.
I tried and tried to install the updated Windows vista 32 bit service pack 1, but also try to update manually, however I continuously get the update error 80073712. I tried the scan tool update service, troubleshooting automatic on the Microsoft Support Web site, as well as research on the Microsoft Answers site for more assistance. However, I still have the same problem, then what else could be the cause so many dell used laptops for not updating this service pack. Either way, I haven't installed service pack 2 either, as I mentioned on some of the answers.
Microsoft says that the operating system is corrupt, so SP1 or SP2 fails. Follow this link for repair.
https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/957310#/en-us/KB/957310
In addition, the article is ok, but he fails to mention that, after analysis of the Sfc runs, must complete the process.
It is, done Sfc, you must also type: CHKDSK C: /F agree to restart, type: EXIT
restart the pc... When the computer reboots, the repairs are installed/fixed, w/o this cmd, just retry the update is not
possible, installations/repairs, can take place only when the pc is restarted...

If you have any general questions about reinstalling Windows , please see this site:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/installing-and-reinstalling-WindowsInstallation - 'upgrade' means what?
Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:Back up any files and settings you want to keep
Install Windows 7
Reinstall all your files
Reinstall all the programs you want to use.
These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.

I searched this forum and almost all resources on the net for days now nothing works. Give the message to a thread more appropriate that I couldn't find one that is truly representative and am a newb at this.
Summary of the problem: Bluetooth connectivity does not work properly after the window Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 and 2 installation (SP 1 and 2).
My system:
Laptop Dell Inspiron E1705, 32-bit Winows Vista Home Premium SP2, Dell Wireless Bluetooth 355 Module + EDR 2.0
* My system was purchased in 2006 with Windows XP, but was not entitled to a free Windows Vista Home Premium Upgrade I did. I installed Windows Service Pack 1 and 2 about a week ago.
Problem: After downloading and installing the Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 and 2 (SP 1 and 2), my system does not recognize my Bluetooth (a touch of Sprint also) device known as the HTC Vogue. I stress that I have not had any problems with this device before downloads. I can't revert to the pre - SP State 1 and 2 because my system restore does not have these points more.
I have read several posts on various sites about people having similar problems with Bluetooth connectivity after the Vista SP 1 and 2 facilities. The problem is obviously the need for an updated driver. I went to the site to download driver Dell and the Blueooth only updates available are the following. (Note: these drivers all date from 2006 and 2007).
I had these installed before the SP 1 and 2 have been installed and they worked very well. After the upgrade, these drivers do not work. They won't recognise BT devices. I tried to upgrade the drivers by using update Broadcom suggested below it, but an error of following installation to contact Dell.
http://www.Broadcom.com/support/Bluetooth/update.php
I contacted Dell via e-mail and on the phone, but they want to charge me $60 for a one time service call just to talk about the problem because my warranty has expired. Provide updated drivers is not a problem of security in my opinion. Even after explaining the situation, their continuous support to just send me the link to download Driver Dell above with out-of-date drivers. I guess that's what they are charged to do, they do not have to admit a problem of compatibility. This obviously the same link they would charge $60 to send. I explained that I need just a Bluetooth Driver from Dell to at least version 6.3. Needless to say, I will never buy another Dell product.
On my end, I tried to uninstall my current drivers and then by installing a newer driver to support Gateway (Version 6.2.1.500 for and Acer). This allows me to install some parts of this update and the update Broadcom. However, it is not a perfect installation and expires after about 90% saying "this update is not for this system" because it is the gateway not Dell to be provided. Displays the version of the driver on my computer is Version 6.3.5.430 after doing this, but it is not a complete installation and some features are not available.
Does anyone have experience with this issue? I would like to have a link with some bluetooth drivers generic Version 6.3 type which will allow me to use the Broadcom link to upgrade to the last version that works with Vista SP 1 and 2.
Thank you for your help.

Try to install Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, but says I have already installed
I have problems of fixing a friends computer. He is currently running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1 with the OEM sticker on the bottom with the key, but he lost the installation discs. To help make repairs, I have a valid Windows Vista repair disc and the Ultimate Boot CD on two different USBs. The symptoms are:
Three addons will install successfully, I restart, and they are uninstalled back again. The installed updates window shows nothing. I have the CBS.log newspaper and the CheckSUR.log if you do not want to see them. There are a lot of mistakes in both of these balls
If I download service pack 2 manually and try to install it, it says I need to install service pack 1 first. If I download SP1 manually and try to install it, it says I already have service pack 1 installed. If I try to install KB947821 it hangs the first time 75% and crashes to zero then.
The machine has problems with the .net Framework. I noticed that programs seem to corrupt and the only way to fix it is to clean the .net Framework and reinstall it.
The computer has recently been scanned with a full scan of Norton and no errors found. There is no antivirus or active windows security options because I was trying to get the updates to install. I'm in safe mode with network currently.
Things I've done:
I read a lot about this problem with a recovery partition. My recovery partition was the flag of boot top, so I spent my drive main and then booted from the disk to repair Windows Vists the flag and ran the Startup Repair. He set up the main drive of OS as the boot partition, but that does not solve the problem.
In order to exclude any form of corruption of MBR, I wiped the MBR and ran the /fixmbr tool to restore the MBR. This does not seem to help anything either.
There is a tool to repair WIndows Update, called a "Microsoft Fix it." I ran this in normal and aggressive modes without change.
Please let me know what information you want. I tried it for awhile and I don't think I'll get it without help.
Hi Jeremiah,.
Based on the information provided (especially errors in the CBS logs), there seems to be several packages in Windows that are damaged or corrupted. They could become this way through several scenerios (3rd party program interaction causing files to be moved or deleted, antivirus software can make a mistake of components to update valid as malicious, or even malware infection). Currently, there are a few options.
You could try manually repair all the packages that are in your CheckSUR report and then try to run the updates again.
Perform a upgrade in Place to attempt to repair the components.
Perform a clean installation to repair all the features of the operating system.
All these choices are not the largest road to go down, unfortunately at this stage with the damage caused to your system, these are the few options left to fix.

Windows vista 64-bit Defender encountered an error: 0x800705b4
Windows vista 64-bit Defender encountered an error: 0x800705b4. I am trying to start my defender and have been unable to accomplish this. I tried to start the Defender Service service and Application and then turned off the Security Essentials again tried to start the program, none of these options worked on the start program. I'm unable to find other options to get going. (Oh, I've also updated my CODECS) Thanks for your help. Address Email Julie * retired privacy *.
Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and should automatically disable the version of Vista in Windows Defender.
If it's not:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off
Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.
Hope the foregoing explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and MSE.
As the version of Vista's Defender is not designed to work in conjunction with MSE, there is no point trying to start it.

How can I identify the name of the invisible file for a backup file successfully to an external hard drive USB2 separate? I use Windows Vista backup program (Service Pack 2), and I need to do backups plus two from other computers on the same external hard drive. To do this, I think I would need to identify each backup file separate I know which file to specify if I need to do a restore.
How can I accomplish this? The program does not seem to give me the ability to specify a file to which to write the backup during a given session files. In addition, I do not understand why I can not see the file name in Windows Explorer - my files options are defined to be able to view hidden and system. Would be grateful for any help you can provide, tonight if possible. Best regards, Oliver for Norm

Windows vista home basic service pack1 and windows vista Home premium service Pack 2
I WANT TO UPDATE WINDOWS VISTA HOME BASIC, WINDOWS VISTA HOME PREMIUM TO MY NEW LAPTOP TO MY OLD LAPTOP. Can I update my laptop which has windows vista home basic service pack1 installed using my laptop which has windows vista Home premium service pack 2 by using a transfer program for example windows easy transfer? HOW CAN I DO THIS?
Hi ronnieVron,
Your copy of Windows is only allowed for 'a machine If you want to put Vista Edition home premium on your 'old laptop"you can buy a new copy of Vista premium. Another point is that copies of Windows was probably preinstalled on your laptop, which means that, putting license on one side, your copy is related to each specific laptop and so, because the copy is related to the material on each laptop, you would have problems on other transfer machine. Anyway you could invalidate your Windows license.

Windows Update does not work on Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2
I have a 32-bit Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop running Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2. I also have Norton Internet Security, which expires on 27/02/2015. I do not often use this laptop, but when I do I update and make sure that all is correct and up-to-date. When I went to check my updates installed there not. When I checked Windows Update update selection has been disabled. I choose Check For Updates and a message came that it could not, because the service is not running. I checked MSCONFIG and depending on whether the program was running. There is no error code! Then I ran the Microsoft Fix It program. The main problem was not fixed, but have some unknown minor problems. Computer laptop operating system has been pre-installed and never put. Norton's anti-virus program used only on the computer! Although I tried three times I couldn't send a troubleshooting report! Before you run the difficulty this program I disabled the Smart of Norton Firewall and Antivirus so that there would be a problem!
It was suggested to delete all folders and files in the folder C: / / windows/C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution. I am wary to do this, while others said that it worked for them. Since it is a Windows folder, I'm not sure that there is not a better way to go! I appreciate your help! Marlene
Internet Explorer is version 9.0.6.
Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) for an extended period (i.e. more than a few minutes) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.
Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Chances are that the "remains" of Norton here is your troublemaker.
