• I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) and now my wireless does not work.

  Hi, I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (dell insparon) 1525 and now my wireless does not work. ive tried re installing driver, but it says operating system not supported. I used the disc that came with the computer of the re install and I even tried to install service pack 1. .

  original title: Wireless problems after install.

  I just tried both, the dell is one that says OS not supported"and the intel, it went very well, but my 'network controller' still have a yellow top thing in Device Manager. and I always wireless. any other ideas? Thank you for the help

  Question...  You have whatever it is listed in the "Network adapters" section of "Device Manager" now?

  While ensuring that the exclamation point is not for your wired network device (plausible) or bluetooth (plausible) and you just need to configure your wireless network to connect to * your * wireless network now.

  You may have to contact Dell to see why none of their drivers receive your wireless device works on the original operating system, what they included.  This could be a hardware problem PURE.

• How to change admin password in BIOS if the old password is forgotten in windows xp?

  Can you tell me how to change the admin password in the BIOS under Windows XP if I forgot the original?

  Thank you.

  If you have a desktop PC, you can disconnect the power cable, open the case and remove the battery (Silver thing small round-shaped piece). then try to restart the computer, you can disable it in the first black screen with white text, it will probably give an error of the BIOS in any case. Then disconnect the power supply again and replace the battery. You need to reset the BIOS, but it should work.

  If it's a laptop is more complicated and you probably need a technician, you will need a few contacts on the motherboard to short and it's not just a deal to open a plate of control over some.

• When you install Windows Vista on a laptop I get this error code 0 x 80070057

  I tried to fix & mobile friends for a while now & I have noticed that, during the installation of Windows Vista, it fails with a few different answers. The error code that showed, the majority being 0 x 80070057.

  The laptop is a MSI VR602 with a broken DVD player (I was the installation via USB) & other potential problems.

  A past remarkable repair I knew everything was the screen being smashed.

  However, when I saw if I could install it on my custom built computer installation flows well (I used the laptop HARD drive)

  I then tried using the disk HARD in the portable windows would begin not with success.

  I think that the cause could be the big difference in the environment.

  I formatted the HARD drive many times & installed via USB laptops with the same result.

  I also noticed another post that it is possible that the SATA connections could be blamed.

  Also at the start I noticed he said something like 'S.M.A.R.T. capable but failed the control unit'. When you check this on my computer, when starting my CHIP on my HARD drive just off computer & laptops.

  The HARD drive is a Western Digital WD2500BEVT.

  Windows Vista Home Basic final first version so that I could use the original serial code.

  I can't try it with an another HARD drive that I have not access to all.

  It would work if the installer has used the same exact files two mega & but there is no chance of this change.

  If someone happens to have a copy of the MSI files used on this computer is would be muched aprciated. (Sorry for the bad spelling)

  It is a 32-bit system.

  Another point is that when I tried to install Windows XP it installed for most, but crashed & had the problem with hal.dll file missing.

  Please post a reply if you know one. If you need information additional just ask.

  Don't worry, I managed to solve the problem. It's a corrupt installer. I have the laptop runs like new.

• Need of restoration of Windows Vista on Dell laptop

  Hello.

  * original title - restore Windows Vista - I have no installation CD. The installatsion CD only I have is a cd of reinstallation of microsoft windows XP Home Edition SP2.*

  Recently, I experienced some problems with Windows Defender.  I tried to do a system restore, but I couldn't go back enough before to the problem.  They then advised me through reading the forums and questioning serveral here my other option was to do a re-installation of complete system for Windows Vista.  I have no problem with that, I don't have a CD for it and no one I know is.  My laptop is a Dell and it received through College I was dating after graduation.   Probably a year ago my hard drive failed.  I had the hard drive replaced and the program that was then installed on my computer Windows Vista (32 bit), which worked well and has been great so far.  The Dell initially had Windows XP home edition SP2 it is and reinstall drive only I.  The disc indicates specifically that it is not for resettlement programs or drivers... If I now can I go back to Windows SP2? I don't know how it works, or what he would do.  Can you please suggest some options? or advice?...

  We do not know what disk/license of Vista was used to install Vista on your computer.

  Normally, ylou would install XP > then go to Vista.

  Read this info on reinstalls Vista and sorting here:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  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 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.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the 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, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  Hello

  I have laptop HP HDX which had a sound problem with message of error "Could not play the test tone", tried in several ways by online suggestions and ended to reinstall the new copy with recovery disk. As part of the recovery with a reovery of HP drive, I tried to get it back and it formatted boot partiion and got this error message "error 1002 if the problem persists, please contact HP support. My laptop is out of warranty now.  I talked to HP support and they ask me to buy new drives recovery and someone in this forum mentioned that recovery disk will lift the same mistake and we would need to purchase technical support and even that has not worked for soembody after paying $ 200 to support. I am struck with recovery of the laptop now. I also tried the recovery partition revovering and gave rise to no luck.  I'm now out of warranty.

  I am really fedup with bearing on my this laptop windows vista 64 bit HP HDX laptop problems. What is your best suggestion for me to recover my windows vista now?

  Thank you.

  I ordered the drive to restore HP for $ 16 and I have no problem in my OS with this disk recovery. Recovery partition that came with my laptop had this error 1002 and he really tortured than me. It is recovered successfully with this new disc of recovery with on all issues.

  I would have saved a lot of time, would not have had any stress and restore ($16) if HP disks price had built the free bug recovery partition.

  I'll be very careful in buying HP products in the future.

  Peace out.

• Automatic update of Windows Vista 15/09/10 changed my theme to look a bit like Windows 98. How I can it return to normal Vista theme?

  I tried to change it by using the taskbar properties. The classic Start menu option is not selected. So what's happened? Hope I can get a quick fix. Thanks in advance!

  This might help:

  Since the Panel control/customize, go to themes and check that the theme of Windows Vista is activated.

  If it is not available, click Start and type services.msc, and then press to open the dialog box. Scroll the themes service, and then click it. Click start it or restart option in the left column. Once restarted, check again the themes of customization dialog box.
