  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):

• How I support windows vista on cd to reinstall it on my other computer that wont start up. He's wiped and there is no recovery disk.

  ? How I support windows vista on cd to reinstall it on my other computer that wont start up. He's wiped and there is no recovery disk.  It also has stickers with license numbers.

  Hello

  There is no download free and legal Internet for vista

  Here are the different ways to reinstall vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  I reinstalled Windows Vista and now I can't run "repair your computer". I need to do this because I'm missing a few scripts.  What should I do to fix this

  Hello

  Run the sfc/scannow command.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

     The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

  If SFC detects the main problems it can't fix you may need to borrow a Microsoft dvd vista not an acer, HP etc. recovery disk and do a repair installation

  Hello world

  I know, there are several other threads on this topic, but I couldn't find a working solution. I currently have no OS on my DELL XPS 17 L702X.

  I've tried wiping HARD drive and reformat with GParted. I don't really know what I could do.

  I would be very grateful if you could help me

  Hello

  I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the computer to change the BIOS settings and check if it is has updated the BIOS.

  Important: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. 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.

  Let us know the results. We will be happy to help you further.

• Could not start the Windows Vista firewall

  Hi all

  I can't start the Windows Firewall service in anyway.
  I can't open it via Control Panel, as it is said simply: "the Windows Firewall settings cannot poster because the asscioated service is not running. You want to start the Windows Firewall service? »
  I click "Yes", then he said: 'Windows cannot start the Windows Firewall service. There is no error code indicated.
  I tried running "wf.msc" using the Microsoft Management Console. When this window appears, he says: "there was an error opening the Windows Firewall with advanced snap-in security.; The Windows Firewall with Advanced Security snap could not load. Restart the Windows Firewall service on the computer that you are managing. "Error code: 0x6D9.
  As it seems, I can not start it this way or the other.
  I pressed Ctrl + Alt + Delete and click on the Services tab, then click services on the bottom, and this opens the Services window.
  In the new Services window, I try to start the service "Windows Firewall". I get a message saying: "Windows could not start the Windows Firewall service on the Local computer.; Error 1068: the dependency service or group could start. »
  Therefore, it does not. The service is set to automatic.
  I found another process called 'Base filtering engine', which I discovered is related to the use of the Windows Firewall service. Then, that I try to start this service, and he said: "Windows has no start the engine service of filtering based on Local computer." Error 0 x 80320009: an object with this GUID or LUID already exists. »
  Still, I can't find a way to fix the problem. In addition, the service is set to automatic.
  So if someone could help me, give me ideas or tell me how to solve the problem, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
  P. S. sometimes, when I type things in the command prompt, I get a message saying that "the requested operation requires a rise." What it means
  ?
  EDIT:
  The base filtering engine
  IKE and AuthIPsec Keying Modules

  Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

  IPsec policy agent

  Routing and remote access

  Windows event collector

  Windows Firewall

  All of these services don't work, with each saying "Windows did not start the * service * service on Local computer.; Error 1068: The dependency service or group could start. ", with the exception of the Base Filtering Engine service.

  EDIT:

  I believe that the motor of filter of Bae is the root cause of the problem, because when I try to start it, it says "Windows cannot start the engine service of filtering based on Local computer. Error 0 x 80320009: an object with this GUID or LUID already exists. ", so that all the other programs on this service, said depedent" Windows did not start the * service * service on Local computer. " ; Error 1068: The dependency service or group could start. ».

  Hello everyone, I solved the problem. The problem is a corrupted, file called "secdrv.sys. To resolve this problem, I had to first download the file "secdrv.sys' out of my operating system CD. To do this, you must create a partition and "mount" a file on CD, on the newly created partition. The file you have to climb is and is called: "*: \sources\install.wim. Extending .wim means a "file system Windows Image" and to see what files it contains, you will need to download what we call the "Windows Automated Installation Kit". Explicit instructions on the installation procedure and where to get this program, is here: "http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/86959-access-vista-install-dvd-files.html". Once you have the file mounted, just search the area mounted for "secdrv.sys", then copy and paste it in "C:\Windows\System32\drivers" or that where the drivers from your system. After that, restart and the BFE service and all of its dependencies should work properly. Thanks for the good help like SpiritX.

• No access to Windows Update in Windows Vista safe mode with network

  Since yesterday every time I connect normally to Windows Vista, the programs stop responding at random and nothing works Manager tasks even not so I am forced to close it manually, the only way that I normally use my computer is in safe mode

  I googled and someone who has had a similar problem to mine all downloaded updates critical to windows update and that seems to fix the problem

  My question is how can I access Windows Update in Safe Mode with network, because when I click on start - Windows Update, nothing happens and I cannot use windows install either.

  Thank you

  Hi Renee,.

  Please use the Community Forums for Vista.

  Probably not the cause, but enabling it does update race and there is probably a problem there.

  Well, let's see. If all your restore points are gone, it's bad. Often, it is a virus.

  Here's what we need. Error codes, messages, etc.

  If no pop up, go into the event viewer (just type in the search bar) and look in the logs of Windows, Applications, and system folders. Please only after the event. We just need the event id and the application causing him.

  Here's what you can do in the meantime.

  Run the checker system files and chkdsk.

  Get back to us with error messages and follow the directions below.

  Follow these steps.

  Type cmd into the search bar and press to enter.

  The chkdsk command line type, then press on enter.

  If it finds errors, type chkdsk /f to repair.

  Once that is complete, insert your windows installation disc in the drive and return to the command prompt. Type sfc/scannow, and then enter.
