Windows Vista 64-bit with readers that will not start after disabling all startup applications and registry changes

My Vista 64-bit system ran like a dream - until I tried to install Roxio Creator 2010.  When the installation failed and hung up, I stopped the installation with the Task Manager and rebooted the pc.  Following the instructions of blog users of Roxio, I did the following:

1. selected disable all startup using MSCONFIG and restarted the pc applications.

2 download and run the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp.

3 remove the partially installed Roxio files in the directory c:\Program Files x 86, then made an export of registry before editing the registry.

4. under the leadership of the registry - deleted file folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Roxio and has attempted to delete the Wow6432Node folder from the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE folder but encountered an error - didn't note it, unfortunately, but basically he said that he could not remove it when it has been changed, after waiting a while I tried to delete the folder Wow6432Node whe even once with the same answer, so I closed Regedit and restarted the pc.

The pc goes through the process of startup and hangs when it tries to start Windows Vista.

5. I can't do a repair with the Vista disk - files are not present.

Hello Ajay K.

Thank you very much for your detailed answer.

I got no error message.  I backed up the registry, but was not able to start the pc, so was not able to restore the registry.

I couldn't restore last good configuration known - the option was not yet present.

When I tried to restore the operating system, he asked drivers before it would proceed.

I have a floppy 1.44 with the raid drivers and after reloading of these drivers, I was able to reload Vista Ultimate.  Fortunately, all my data was recorded in a windows.old directory, and I'm back in business without losses.  Just had to reload all my software.  Do that...

I think that my problem was caused by disabling all startup applications in msconfig - which resulted in my hard not recognized disk array.  This seems likely.

You are awesome to provide an exceptional response.

  • Dual boot Windows vista 32 bit with win 7 64 bit

    Is it possible to dual boot

    Windows Vista Business 32-bit
    with
    Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
    I do not want I want to have two operating systems
    Now, I have a 25 GB Partion ready for Windows 7, I only have Vista currently.
    Apparently XP32Bit can dual boot with win7 64-bit but can vista 32 bit?
    There will be problems with a Dual Boot Vista/Win7?

    Hello

    You must ensure that 64-bit Windows 7 drivers are available from the manufacturer of your computer for all the hardware, or it will not work properly.

    And is the same for your printer, etc.

    Read this tutorial on dual boot them, including system requirements:

    p.s. We need a full license of Windows for two operating systems, as upgrade does not here apply.

  • Internet worked well until I have Reinstalled windows vista 64 bit, now my Internet does not work, says that I don't have a driver from the Internet.

    Internet worked well until I reinstalled windows vista 64 bit on my Dell laptop, now my Internet does not work. Went into Device Manager and there is no network adapter. I tried to reinstall the driver that came with my laptop disk but it doesn't seem to work, says that I need an updated driver. I don't know what else to do, I have to install a new driver from the Internet? Ugh becomes very frustrated!

    http://support.Dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=Gen

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

    The computer you are using now if you have an Internet connection with the other > download / save drivers > copy them into Flash Drive > transfer / install on another computer/laptop.

  • Help! Windows Vista 32-bit thinks suddenly that my installation is not authentic!

    My Dell Inspiron 1525 stop spontaneously today and when I again started Windows Vista 32 - bit OS said I had a non-genuine version and he asked me my product key.  I entered that and he rejected her.

    Is there a solution to this?  I have the original Dell with Vista and the Product Code installation disc.

    Concerning

    Dave

    Thank you Philippe.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.  Please forgive my ignorance :)

  • Windows Vista will not start after the automatic installation of the patch Ms.

    My Dell laptop does an automatic installation of the latest MS patches (12/08/10) and now he can't boot into windows.  All tests show that the material is fine, but an error at the end of the "bad update patch" said test results I can not even to go back to a previous restore point.  This happened to me the year last on my desk... same thing, but it's XP which could not start after an automatic update for the Member States.  Dell technical support told me that MS knows what is happening, but it is not supposed to be public knowledge.  I need to know if there is a fix, in addition to erase everything and do a complete reinstallation of the operating system.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

    Restore point:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

    Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • HP Officejet 4620. Windows Vista. Acer Aspire laptop. Will not print wireless or cable w/USB.

    HP Officejet 4620/Windows Vista. No error message. Problems started after installing new memory cards and drives. I followed the instructions to the letter several times, without success. When I click on the "Print" button, all I get is a window popping up labelled "HP Officejet 4620 (network); below is a blue dot/circle with an exclamation point in the middle. to the right of that, "BOLD" letters that say 'the printer is ready. below is a message, "click OK to continue." at the bottom right of this window is the bar/button "OK". When you click on this button (that I have to hurry because the window flashes market again and again!), the window disappears and nothing happens: no error message, warning or any communication.  At the end of the day, I tried to connect the printer cable USB (nine) and got the same window. It makes me NUTS. The person said tech (friend) who has installed cards and disks to the IP address of the printer keeps rolling. If that's the case, surely linking directly to the computer with the cable would have worked? Someone please help!  Thank you.

  • Vista will not start after start or restart.

    Since last week, when I first start the computer, change user or log out or reboot, Vista does not start after the log in password stage (after accepting the password). I usually have to restart the computer twice so he could finally enter the Office of habit and I can work as usual.

    I tried to let the computer some time at this point to work through and start normally, but it does not work and I have to restart.

    I recently updated my anti-virus (BitDefender) for the 2010 edition.

    I don't know if is the recent update to Vista which is originally or not.

    Uninstall Bit Defender and see if that fixes things. Antivirus programs use low-level drivers which can sometimes cause problems. If the uninstallation of Bit Defender work, use a different antivirus. I recommend ESET NOD32 (commercial) or Avast free. If Bit Defender Uninstalling does not help, then you may experience hardware problems. Failing power supply or hard drive that often produces symptoms such as you describe.

Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    I recommend you contact the manufacturer of the PC for the procedure for making changes in the BIOS.
