installing xp over vista ? by JG[_2_]
We bought a new machine with Vista on it. However Our Engineering software will not run on Vista and we really don't like Vista either (too restrictive). We would like to just install our XP cd to the new machine but we cannot figure a way to do it. Vista will not let me format the drive. and the XP Cd does nothing on boot, it goes right back to Vista. We have not tried the partition dual boot yet

Crash and Re-Install by JCO
I keep reading about licensing issues. I want to know if you crash your computer, therefore, change motherboards or Harddrive.... if you can re-install Vista 32 bit Operating System? Is there a trick to this or can you simply re-install as you can in Windows XP. Thanks

Omission in Help and Support Document on Windows Vista by William McIlroy
In the part about configuring a network printer it says, in pertinent part, as follows: "To connect to a network printer After you have installed a network printer, you need to add a connection to the printer for each computer on the network." Actually this is not a complete description of the task at hand. You must configure the printer for EACH USER (those desirous of a connection to...

Vista Updates by MSPRISSYSMOM
One thing about Vista it is always updating and checking, always checking. But it seems like when I am in a hurry and want to check something on the computer myself, this is when it wants to do it! Does the computer have to be in hibernate for it to do automatically? Obviously I can't have it shut-down, because that is what is going on now. I have the timer set on 3am, I have figured that part...

Vista Basic (OEM Dell) to Retail Vista Ultimate upgrade by Willy
the Vista advisor says its doable, but i certainly don't want to do a fresh install. But the upgrade is grayed out when i run setup. I can certainly see why a novice user would just get disgusted and return the 200 + dollar software package to the store. And no i don't have a FAT C: disk, not booting off the vista DVD, got 360 gig free, blah blah. and the rest of the list of possible...

Interesting Problem......... by Roger Morrison
Hi All, First time poster here. I have just backed up my system drive by creating an ISO image. I have then restored the Image onto a WD Raptor Hard Drive (runs at 10000rpm I'll have you know!). Now, the first startup worked fine, no problems. Loaded into the Vista desktop and was able to do what I wanted. However, subsequent startups have allowed me to log in, but have then

ATTN: Paul Montgomery, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, OLD MAN! I got you by Leonard Grey[_4_]
Both Montgomery(aka Mr. Arnold) posts are from the one poster, the FAKE Montgomery OP. He is a real loser when he has to post to himself! But how could a low-life like it have any friends. -- --- Leonard Grey Errare Humanum Est

Pirated DVD by Mr. Arnold[_4_]
Stupid Usenet users: I have been away for a while; involuntary confinement in a Lunatic Asylum. Stupid Vista, the stupid OPs, their stupid questions, and your even more stupid answers caused this. Also, everything got on top of me; aunts, uncles, even the family dog. Gosh, I am sore. But, I can see light at the end of the tunnel (I think it is a train!) I try to take my Zoloft hourly (doctor's...
