• Cannot run the system error PrintMaster 2012 PlatinumBasic has been replaced by Windows Vista Aero in Windows Vista Basic.

  Original title: PrintMaster 2012 PlatinumBasic

  After you install the above program, I am not able to open it. I get a message saying that the color scheme has been changed from Windows Vista Aero to Windows Vista Basic. However, the program is still not open. Any ideas on what I should do?

  Hello

  1. is the issue limited to the program Print Master 2012 base Platinum?

  If you receive a message that some Visual elements, such as transparency, have been turned off or if you receive a message that the color scheme has been changed to Windows Vista Basic, one of the following might have happened:

  ·         A program that you are using is not compatible with the Windows Aero color scheme. When you run a program that is not compatible with the Windows Aero color scheme, some Visual elements are automatically disabled. When the program is not is more running, the Visual elements that have been disabled will then automatically lit.

  ·         Your computer does not have to have enough memory to run all of the programs that you have open and also run the Windows Aero color scheme. Try closing some windows or changing your color scheme to Windows Vista Basic. If Windows automatically changed your game of colors in Windows Vista Basic, and you want to change it back to Windows Aero after closing some windows, follow these steps.

  Hello

  Sorry we don't communicate via this forum.

  You need a real antivirus because these are the two antispyware. You have the PCtools antivirus
  on the computer or just their toolbar in Internet Explorer?

  -------------------------------------------------

  If there is no antivirus on the computer here is what I use and recommend (except for one
  program like Prevx, you don't want more than one antivirus on the computer program
  much less running because they interfere with each other and lower security). Each combination
  of her below you will warn of malware without toolbar from PCtools running online.

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are alll free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
  Operation of the network.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
  Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
  Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
  disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
  and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
  Finish those you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
  programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
  or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
  would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
  (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
  never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  I hope this helps.

  Thanks for the replies

  You cannot enable aero as it requires directx 10, and VMware currently only supports dx9 shader model 2.

  (But not tried it myself), I heard that there is a work around to your guest on a host remote desktop connection capable aero.

  As your host is probably able aero... That's what you could try...

• Question about Vista performance on satellite Pro M70

  I was wondering if anyone knew a lot about the performance of vista. For example, if you run a game under vista it run worse than in Xp because the operating system uses more than the power of the computer?

  Hello

  For two weeks, I use Windows Vista on my Satellite Pro M70. The laptop is not Vista capable, but I am very satisfied. It works very well. I tried to install and play older games like Far Cry and IGI2. It works perfectly without any problems.

  The set comes with 512 MB of RAM. As I said it works well, but I think that it will work much better with more RAM. I think I'll buy another 1 GB module. With 1.5 GB of RAM, I believe that the unit will operate like a rocket. :)

  Which laptop model you have?

  Hello
  I'm new to this forum. My name is Francisco and I live in the Brazil. I have a Toshiba Qosmio g20_105 and it is running Windows Vista Ultimate EN RTM 6000 without problems.
  To do this, you must perform a clean installation of Windows Vista. The drivers for network (Intel PRO100), audio (Soundmax), TV (Toshiba PCI Tuner), modem (modem of toshiba), Alps pointing device are installed directly from microsoft. You must install the Toshiba, Toshiba Bluetooth nvidia display driver (monitor and stack), driver Toshiba flash media, toshiba RAID texas (drivers and utilities), toshiba remote control manager and ConfigFree for Windows Vista.
  You must have the Toshiba RAID drivers to install from the windows Vista DVD. Otherway, Windows does not recognize Toshiba RAID 0 and RAID 1.

  Below some pictures of my desktop of the G20 screen:

  3. turn on your computer and press F12 to display the start menu.
  4. Select the option to boot from the CD/DVD drive.
  5. on the first Setup screen, choose your language options, and then press "next".
  6. press on "install now".
  7 type your product key and then press "next".
  8. accept the license terms by checking the box, then press "next".
  9. when he asked "which type of installation that you want", press "Custom (advanced)".
  10. when it is asked "Where do you want to install Windows?", make sure that your media containing the Toshiba RAID drivers is connected to the computer, and then click on "Load driver".
  11. navigate to the location you copied the RAID drivers then press 'OK '.
  12. the installation program will return to the previous screen, but it will show that you have selected the TOSHIBA RAID driver.
  13 make sure that the TOSHIBA RAID driver is selected, and then press "next".
  14. continue the installation of Windows Vista as usual.

  Now, you will need drivers Toshiba for your Qosmio G20:
  See the information of Device Manager:

  Drivers:
  1. SD memory controller

  And finally the Toshiba Utilities:

  That's all...

  So, I say to you that Toshiba Qosmio G20 is Windows Vista Ultimate capable, indeed.

• Question about Vista install on Equium M70

  Hello
  I think of buying a full version of vista home or premium edition. Y at - it a special procedure to install vista on my equium M70-337?

  Upgrade Advisor Microsoft vista tells me that the original version would be right for this machine, I was wondering if any problem could happen if I install the premium on this computer instead?

  What could be better? to do a clean install, or just upgrade the existing XP?

  Thanks for your help!
  Károly

  Hello

  > Is there any procedure to install vista on my Satellite M70-337

  I found on the page of the Toshiba driver a new update of the BIOS designed for Vista. So, it seems that you must update the BIOS before you start the Windows Vista installation.

  > Microsoft vista upgrade advisor tells me that the original version would be right for this machine, I was wondering if any problem could happen if I install the premium on this computer instead?

  No, I think you can also use the Home Premium version. There is no major difference between the Home and Home Premium version. The version of Vista Premium provides more OS features. But the performance should be the same.

  > Which is better? To do a clean install, or just upgrade the existing XP?

  I recommend you to install Vista on the second partition. In this case, you would be able to use the two BONES. Vista use a Startup Manager and you could choose between XP and Vista.

  PS: There is no Vista divers for this laptop at the moment. That's why most of the features of laptop as media, FN keys, buttons etc does not work with Vista

  Hi does anyone know how to get Aero to work on my Tosh laptop. the OS is Vista Home Premium and I have exhausted the help options OS affecting theme Win Vista, color scheme to Aero etc.

  Hello

  The laptop should be certainly be able to use the AERO.
  It supports a 256 MB card and 2 GB memory graphics.

  So it seems you only need to activate the Aero on your Vista.
  But which version of Vista is installed on the laptop.
  As I know the basic home edition version does not include the Aero. The Aero is available on the Home Premium edition or newer

  So now you ask what you can do? I found these tips on the site of Ms.
  Check if the desktop theme has been set to Windows Vista

  1. open theme settings by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, customization and then clicking theme.
  2. in the theme list, click Windows Vista, and then click OK.

  Try to enable transparency widowed intercadres.
  But note; to enable transparency, the color scheme must first be set to Windows Aero.
  1. open Personalization by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel configuration, on appearance and personalization, and then click customization.
  2. click on the appearance and color of the window.
  3. Select the transparency check box.
