• Im trying to install the Nvidia drivers for my new video card and its saying that my operating system (windows vista 64-bit) is not compatible, which means they are 32-bit drivers, it's fake.

  Im trying to install drivers for a Nvidia Geforce GTX 260 on my windows vista 64 bit computer. Every time I have try and start the download, it is said that my driver is not a 64-bit driver, which is false, and that my system is 64 bit, which is true. SO... after I click 'OK', it begins to download only to have another pop-up saying "Setup has detected that the system in use is not windows vista 64 bit" which it is. Basically its contradiction with himself. im confused.

  Im running windows vista 64-bit.

  I just upgraded to a Nvidia 9800GT, to a Nvidia GTX 260.

  In frustration, I deleted all the old drivers, but the new will not download.

  The first error says that the drivers are not 64-bit.

  The second error indicates the operating system is not 64-bit.

  i, m on windows vista 32-bit basic family and I m under IE 9. Windows Defender does not level

  Hello

  If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

  There is nothing to worry.

  Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

  If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):

  "Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.

  Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.

  Once modified, click apply and OK.

  Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"

• System Recovery Options - no operating system listed, need to load the drivers, but don't know where to find this (Windows Vista 64-bit)

  It is a gateway M6866 laptop running Windows Vista 64-bit.

  The computer does not start up--gives "BOOTMRG is missing" error at startup.  I'm trying to boot from the 64-bit of Windows Vista recovery disc.  I clicked on the "repair your computer" option, and it shows the computer loading files.  Then the "System Recovery Options" box appears and asks me to select the operating system to fix it.  The problem is that nothing has listed.  It is said that if your OS is not listed click Load Drivers.  I did, but it is said to insert the device installation media, and then click OK to select the driver.  I clicked on OK and then opens a browser window to select the file.

  I don't know which file I'm supposed to select here.  I searched online for an answer, and someone told him to go to the computer manufacturer's website and download the driver for RAID controller.  I tried to go to the site of the bridge to find it, but it doesn't seem to be one for Vista 64-bit.

  Please please help!  I have to at least be able to extract the files to the hard drive before reinstalling windows.

  Hello

  ·        Have you Configure RAID on the system?

  If you have not configured then RAID on the system, I suggest you to disable the RAID/eSATA (SATA improved) in the BIOS. Once you turn off the RAID/eSATA on the system that your basic hard disk should be recognized by the system because it doesn't require any drivers, it will act as an IDE. Once you have disabled the RAID/eSATA then booting into the recovery environment and build the Bootrec and check if the problem is resolved. I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below to rebuild the bootrec.

  Rebuild the BCD store by using the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment. To do this, follow these steps:

  a. get the Vista installation DVD and pop in your drive.

  b. then restart your computer.

  c. press a key when you are prompted.

  d. Select a language, a time, a currency, and a keyboard or another input method, and then hitNext

  e. click on repair your computer

  f. click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next

  g. in the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt

  h. type bootrec /rebuildbcd and then press the Enter"" key.

  ·        If Bootrec runs successfully, it will present you with the installation of a Windows directory path. To add the entry in the BCD store, type Yes. A confirmation message appears that indicates the entry has been added successfully.

  ·        If Bootrec cannot findany lack of facilities of Windows, you must remove the BCD store, and then you must re-create it. To do this, type the following commands in the order shown below: (remember to press ENTER after each command)
  bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup
  Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old
  Bootrec /rebuildbcd

  i. restart the computer.

• Cannot install drivers for nothing - Windows Vista 64-bit

  I have a laptop Dell - Inspiron, with Windows Vista 64-bit. I just bought a HP Deskjet 3054 A multifunction printer and my computer will not install the drivers.  I had a Canon printer and had removed all software before you try to add the HP.  I even tried to reinstall, and each time to get a message to both say he is unable to install the drivers.  I currently have a windows update waiting for an update for the processor intel and it also will not be installed. This problem does not seem to be specific to the device, but rather a problem with Windows Vista and after reading a lot of discussion seems to be common.  But I still have no idea how to fix this.

  Have you tried to delete the file INFCACHE.1? Deleting the file INFCACHE.1 will force Windows to rebuild the file INFCACHE.1 next time window is looking for drivers.

• Windows Vista 32-bit is failing to start after the success of the recovery.

  Hi all, my apologies if this has already been covered in another post, I checked but I'm new here so might have forgotten.

  I have a HP Pavilion a6442a with Windows Vista 32-bit. A couple of weeks it froze, forcing me to maually shut down, and now it does not restart. It gets so far then goes to startup repair, which never seems to find no problem. I tried restoring the system (to several different restore points), conducted diagnostic tests, conducted tests of memory and hd and tried commissioning in all modes as I could: no problem can't find anywhere and I always had the same problem. Finally, I backed up my files and made a full recovery of the system. It said it completed successfully, I restarted to complete the installation of Windows, it gets "Please wait a moment while Windows starts for the first time... "freezes, restarts and then traced directly back to the start screen for repair.

  I am at a loss, I've done everything I can think. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Hello:

  Have you added any hardware configuration inventory (other than replace the hard disk or add memory)?

  Do you have only the mouse, keyboard and screen plugged in when you ran the recovery procedure?

  If the answer to question 1, remove any material that you have installed that do not come with the PC and try to recover again.

  If the PC is recovering successfully, close and reinstall your spare hardware.

  If not, question 2, unplug anything other than the mouse, the keyboard and the monitor and try to recover again.

  If you continue to be confused and you can read all 25 characters of the product key of Vista on your PC case, you can make your own Vista installation media.

  It will be just a simple installation of Vista and no software other than the operating system will be included.

  You can install the drivers and software available to support for your PC and driver page.

  Link to the info below... click on the blue link of the reinstallation of Windows Guide PDF and start reading the news of Vista that starts on page 296.

I need to sync my iPod on Windows as well.

  I did install updates or anything before this problem. He began by chance. I can't start without failure or recovery mode or networking like these gel too.

  HP pavilion dv6-1030us originally with windows vista 64 bit have now upgraded to windows7 32 bit. MIC is unable to send sound in Skype after upgradation.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  First, uninstall Skype and when it is finished, restart the laptop.

  When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver here.

  Once the installation is complete, restart the laptop.

  Let windows load completely, then download the installer of IDT Audio on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp45001-45500/sp45044.exe

  One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

  When you're done, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery, connect the power adapter and start Notepad.

  Let Windows load fully, then open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  When this has completed, restart the computer again.

  Reinstall Skype and see if the MIC now works Ok.

• Windows Vista 64-bit does not

  I have a Toshiba laptop with windows vista 64-bit.  I can load up with success to the point where I can go online and run other programs, but after 5 minutes or so everything becomes unresponsive.  The internet browser, the taskbar.  Everything except the mouse and touchpad.  Vista seems to be a bit busier than normal during this time and no matter how long wait he just still insensitive until I restart.  After the reboot, it does the same thing.  Start in safe mode gives no problem.  I would like to find a way to solve this but have no idea where to start.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi goonstwone,

  Remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  This problem may be caused by some conflict hardware or software of a third party; I suggest you try the following steps to refine the question:

  Step 1: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...) Except the mouse and keyboard, start the computer, and then check to see the problem persists

  If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue.  Then get any drivers\software update for the device.

  Step 2: The computer in the boot and a test

  Follow step 1 in the link below,

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

  Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

  After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

  Important: n ' forget not the computer to start normal follow step 7 in the link.

• Issue of intermittent start with Windows Vista 64-bit

  For some time, I've experienced a problem intermittent start up on my PC - Windows Vista 64-bit, where he spent in front of the screen «Windows is loading...» "to a black screen, but crashes then it and will never progress to the screen with the Windows icon (circle?).  When this happens, I usually try to restart in mode without failure, then stop or do a system restore and it finally starts again.  If it is intermittent, I noticed that it happens almost always if I use the computer for awhile, turn it off, then on again a few minutes later.  Thoughts?

  Your description of the behavior of the computer, I would look to hardware fault as the culprit. The first suspects are overheating and power supply. You can solve yourself or take the machine to a local professional reputable (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).
