• I need to reinstall Windows Vista home Premium, but I don't have it on the disc, I got a serial number.

  I've upgraded to windows 7, the upgrade requires a previous version of windows must be installed before it can be used.

  When I installed the upgrade first, it worked perfectly, unfortunately I do not have a set of recovery discs before upgradeing from Vista to 7 (stupid I know!).

  I bought the components to upgrade my PC and want to reinstall windows, but cannot without Windows Vista Home Premium disc, and I can't find anywhere to download them, or find someone willing to let me copy their discs (I only need a copy discs, I have my own serial number).

  True to form, I also forgot to make disks of backup to my laptop before it got a virus (edition windows Home premium), feeling very stupid.

  If anyone knows where I can get copies of these discs, it would releive a lot of stress.

  That you have a legable Vista product key, then use these installation files to make a .iso and then bootable DVD/USB as shown here:

  http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/Microsoft-Windows-and-Microsoft-Office-downloads.aspx

  This will install Windows Vista with the activation of the phone. Note using your Windows 7 update product key directly with the good Windows 7 .iso file directly should work and you should not need to install Vista. You can, or perhaps not to activate by phone.

  Hi Peter,.

  Yes, you can use the same product key when reinstalling windows.

  Note: If you are facing a problem while activating, I recommend you contact the factory system since you are using an OEM computer.

• Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and Startup Repair prevent my laptop to turn on.

  My laptop is running slow so I thought that I would need to update something. It suggested that Windows Vista Service Pack 2 so I started to update, but I remembered that my previous laptop was having problems with Windows Vista Service Pack 2 so I canceled the update.
  I then turned off my laptop later and now when I turn it on it goes to 'Launch Startup Repair', I have let this happen, but can not solve a problem.
  I then tried "Start Windows normally", but it goes back to restart and on-screen 'launch Startup Repair '.
  Then I tried to boot into 'Safe Mode' = nothing
  I tried restoring the system but there is no date available, and he said something like "there is no diagnostic tool.
  I don't know what I can do!

  Hi carlywray,

  Your computer came with Windows Vista preloaded? If so, contact the manufacturer for the disk recovery or a method of recovery of your operating system. If you have purchased a full copy of Windows, see this Microsoft document.

  When I start windows, the message that I get a black screen is Windows (Vista) cannot start because the file is missing or corrupt: \system32\ntoskrnl.exe. Please reinstall a copy of the above file.

  I tried to launch a system of diagnosis without a disk and everything going on. I then tried running windows in safe mode and it won't allow me. That's when I switched to an installation disc supplied with the system. I tried to recover the system from there, but it would not go beyond the option of choosing an operating system. Once I got to that screen, there was NO operating system choose.

  I tried to restore my computer and there is no restore point.

  I renounced restore my computer and thought I'll all start over and install windows vista all over again. This was not the case either. I followed these steps:

  1. Turn on your computer and insert the CD or the DVD of Windows Vista.

  2. Install Windows page, follow all of the instructions that appear, and then clickInstall now.

  3. On the Get updated important for installation page, we recommend getting the latest updates to help ensure a successful installation and to help protect your computer against security threats. You will need an Internet connection to get the installation updates.

  4. On the Type your product key for activation page, we strongly recommend that you type your 25-character product key in order to avoid problems during activation.

  5. On the Please read the license terms page, if you agree to the terms of the license, clickI accepts the terms of the license.

  6. Follow the instructions on each page. On the type of installation do you want? page, clickCustom.

  7. On the place where you want to install Windows? page, select the partition where you want to install.

  8. Click next to begin the installation. You can see a compatibility report.

  and then had this error that says;

  windows doesn't have can create a partition on disk 0. The error occurred when preparing the partition selected for installation. Error code: 0x80004005.

  Now I am stuck and don't know what to do.

• Windows Vista has stopped auto update cannot update manually. Used windows 'Mr fix - it' returned error code: 0 x 80040154

  I don't know when this problem occurred. All of a sudden I lost sound on my Windows Vista Business System. In trying to find a solution to this problem, I went to the Microsoft Fix - It Center and downloaded the troubleshooting Fix - It. After insalling the Fix - It store and then you try to run the program an error code indicating: "C:\windows\System32\dssenh.dll is not designed to run on windows or it contains an error. Try to install the program using Intallation to original media or software to support provider or system administrator. "before you begin to solve the problem, as well, I decided to create a restore point, then I went to windows update and had an error code: 802440F when you try to update. Go to the Microsoft site and then try to download the updates manually it immediately opens the automatic update dialog box and activating returns the same error code: 8024402F. After reading the list of error codes, the closest codes of this number were 8024402C and 80244022

  and the main board seems to rerun the update with the firewall shutdown, then restart the firewall after the download. I did this and still have not solved my problem. I think I have a sound card problem, but would not interfere with the automatic windows update. I then tried the option repair on windows vista drive still no luck.

My options there were 'Install now' and 'repair your computer '. When I try to install, I put in my product key that seems fine.

  This isn't an installation disc. It's a record of startup repair!
  You use the repair disk option, not Install.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  https://secure.TX.Acer.com/rcdb/main.aspx?brand=Acer

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

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

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11; Acer is in some models Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

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

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

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

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

  After installing Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my laptop, he asks now the product key to activate windows.  He won't accept him, indicating that the product key is already used on another computer.  It is not the case! What can I do?

  Hello les1helen,

  If you get a message that the product key is already in use then the next step is to use telephone activation. See this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm
