Please type Y and press Enter. 5. Please restart the computer and let the tool check all drives on the computer. Step 2: ============= 1. Open an Administrator command prompt by clicking on the "Start" Button - "All Programs" - "Accessories" - Right click on "Command Prompt" and selecting "Run as Administrator" and clicking "Allow" for the elevation prompt 2. In the command prompt, type the command below: fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\ Prompt should return that with "The operation completed successfully" 3. Close/Exit Command Prompt window; 4. Reboot the machine Step 3: Install Windows Vista SP1 in Clean Boot Mode ========================================= Please disable all startup items and third party services when booting to avoid conflict when installing Vista SP1.: 1. Click "Start", type: MSCONFIG in the search box and press Enter. Note: Please click "Continue" if the "User Account Control" window pops up. 2. Click "Services", check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray). 3. Click "Startup", click "Disable All", click "OK" and restart the computer. Note: Temporarily disabling the Startup Group only prevents the startup programs from loading at startup. This shouldn't affect the system or other programs. We can manually run these programs later. 4. Please double click the downloaded Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Standalone Installer and follow the instructions to install Windows Vista SP1. To restore the computer to use a Normal Startup, repeat step 1 above. Then click "Normal Startup" on the General tab, click "OK", and then restart the computer. -- David_P_Morse ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David_P_Morse's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/228116.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-set...all/935254.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
