Thank god I have my mac. ;) Or I'd never be able to post this question on Vista. I just lost my entire Vista OS and all its Data. Maybe its because I'm a Mac user who knows.... Am I allowed to say Vista? Or is there a code word for it? 7! Anyhow, I had to restore from out of the Box self made Restore DVDs I had fortunately made when I bought the machine. After getting the proper magic...

I am fairly new to all this and have just built my first operational system. I did have a Windows-based system running. But lets say there are reasons I couldn't upgrade it online to SP2. So, I thought I'd buy a nice bit of software - Vista Ultimate SP1 OEM. Its for system builders. Ok - I thought that's me. I built my system. Configured it and after downloading, upgrading, partitioning and...

I just re-installed vista and the first night I left the computer running. I the morning while trying to log in (from hybernation), I got the dreaded blue screen error bad.pool.header. It has happened the 2 nights I left the computer on. Since I do most of the scanning (defender, virus, etc) at night while I sleep, I prefer not to shut down before going to sleep, When the computer re-boots...

I have been consistently unable to install Vista SP1. It goes through all three phases and then simply fails, and reverts back. I am running Vista home premium 32 bit. Initially got an error that led me to run repair.bat and try the reinstall again last night, but no luck. Other updates have installed successfully before and after SP1. ????

I'm getting ready to build my next machine. I'm considering whether or not to run two hard drives using Intel Matrix Storage. My basic thought was to run 2x the 300GB WD VelociRaptors but with two partitions per, say 100+100 RAID0 for the OS, apps, and paging (everything but \user) and 200+200 RAID1 mounted at \user. Is this possible to setup in an initial Vista installation without a big...

I did a clean install. During the options I formatted and deleted the partition. I thought it would create another partition but it didn't. Everything went to the main HD. Is this, or is this gonna be, a problem?.. Thanking you in advance.

I would like to capture an occasional snapshot of my whole system (Dell XPS laptop). The purpose here would that, in the unfortunate case of having to do a complete re-install due to hardware or software problems, I could get back (in a relatively simple fashion) to some known execution environment where most of my applications were installed and registered/running/etc. Data backups (while...

I currently have textbridge pro millenium OCR software that works fine in win xp. If I upgrade to Vista 32 bit, will it work? Can anyone recommend another OCR software that works with Vista? Does Vista have any built in OCR that can be accessed from within Word? Does any other software such as Adobe acrobat have an OCR engine that works in Vista? Thanks for any advice.

I've got to reinstall Vista. My only BIOS settings are CD-ROM, no option for DVD drive. Bios is latest avaliable. Is my only option to open the case and disconnect the CD-drive? I assume that then the BIOS would see the DVD drive as a CD drive and boot the DVD from that?

I cannot make the Vista installation work. I tried an upgrade from XP. After starting setup, the process seems to work ok. Questions are asked, checks are done, files are copied. However, when the PC reboots for the first time, it starts a continuous reboot: the BIOS messages are shown, some seconds later the PC reboots again. Then I tried a fresh installation with booting from DVD. The...

Got a new computer that I liked and an operating system that I don't. I see a blue screen of death at least 2x a week and ignore it to start windows regularly. After a couple of times of starting regularly, it seems to run regular except for the blue screen of death during startup. It seems not to want VMWARE player installed, but I have to have it because half of my business software won't...

Is this possible with my specs? As far as my research has shown, I should be fine. The only problem is that I can't seem to find an upgrade directly from Xp Pro to Vista Ultimate x64. Am i just going to have to fork out the dough for the retail original install version? I plan to turn this system into a media center with an extender down in my living room. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
