AVG 8.5 Build 364 64 Install
Jun 18, 2009
When trying to install both the free and trial/fee 8.5 Build version of AVG under Vista 64 receive the following error msgs:
Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error: Action failed for file sc.dat: creating file....
Error 0xe001042c
Rollback:
Error: Action failed for file sc.dat: removing file....
Error 0x80070005 %PATH% = "C:Program Files (x86)AVGAVG8sc.dat"
Error 0x80070005
Searching AVG site shows these msgs are security/privilege related so tried executing the downloaded .exe file by clicking on run in administrator mode with same results.
Then tried running it with the hidden administrator ID with the same results.

This seems to be a knowledgable board, so I thought I would present my questions/problems to you all. I ran XP (32bit) With my single 8800gtx fine, and yesterday upgraded to 8800gtx's in SLI, along with the Vista Ultimate x64 upgrade. I unistalled the drivers from the video card, and the newest drivers after I installed the SLI setup. I don't remember the numbers but I tried the newest beta and certified drivers for Vista 64. When I play WoW (Shame on me I know), The game runs great and incredibley fast, but I get crashes when running it in SLI mode and running 2 versions of WoW at the same time (I previously had done this without SLI before with no problems in XP). That was fine with me, I just switched it back to Single GPU mode for WoW, and all was fine, and I just switched it back to single GPU and I can run 2 copies of WoW perfecetly now.
My real problem lies when I try to play Crysis. The game is patched, but when I get to load up the first level, most of the time my screen will go black and say "Monitor Entering Power save Mode," and every once in a while it will start the first level, then hard lock after about 5 seconds. The power save seems to be the main problem. I tried disabling the monitor power save all together, but even with it disabled it still happens. Anyone have any thoughts? I think perhaps its just the drivers, but it's becomming quite frustrating to me, as I've tried the newest betas/normals.

I'm building a new PC for my folks and I'm not sure which version of Vista I should install for them. They do a bit more than just check email. My dad likes his audio apps (iTunes, mixing programs, etc) and likes to tinker a bit with different programs. I've bought them 4GB of RAM because it's so cheap at the moment and my dad wants this to be a PC that will last them for several years to come. My question is, should I put them on Vista 64-bit or 32-bit? I know that the 32-bit version will only see about 3.2GB of the RAM I got, and I don't want to have to reinstall everything for them in the near future. Is Vista 64-bit "there" yet? Or is it still for advanced users only? Should I play it safe I install the 32-bit version even though it may be outdated soon (and not see all the RAM), or will 32-bit be the way forward for a few years yet to come?

Reference MS Article ID 555910, dated 3 April, 2007. How TO: Enable the build-in Administrator account in Windows Vista. I would very much appreciate a clarification regarding Administrator Accounts or profiles. I am planning to purchase a new Dell XPS 630 computer with Vista Business in the next month or two. I am trying to become familiar with Vista before I receive the computer. If I understand it correctly, when the first bootup is made with the new computer, a user account is created that has administrator privileges. According to the above referenced article, there is a build-in Administrator account. Also in this article, under the Applies To: Heading, it does mentions only Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Starter. However, I have seen some postings or internet articles mentioning the built-in Administrator account, not clarifying what versions of Vista that it applies to.
Question: When I receive my new Dell computer and complete the initial bootup, the new user account, and final install, will that be the only User Account on the computer with Administrator privileges?

Suddenly tonight my Windows Vista Ultimate OS stated that I had only fourteen days left of my evaluation period.This is crazy, because I bought this full version earlier this year, and I am 100% sure I activated it over the net.When slipping the computer the original disk, after a while I says that upgrade is disabled, and that I have to do a clean install.Are those guy at MS completely gone off the walls?Is there a way I can reactivate it?Does anyone know what might have happened?I can vaguely remember some downloading from a MS site to try out something, and after that the message came low and right on my screen stating "Windows Vista (TM) Evaluation version. Build 6001"I can't do a clean install now!I fought for months to get everything to work.Damned if I go through that again!Of course it is my fault. I should have read the small print (if there was
any?!).But changing a legit version into a evaluation version without any proper
repetitive warnings,is absurd!

Build 19 error. I am getting an error message "Build 19 has stopped working". Does anyone know what this error is and how to resolve it? I have a language program that I purchased and when I try to "Print" a group of lists or flash cards with this program, I am getting this message in a box that says "Microsoft Windows" in the upper left blue area with this message in the white boxed area. It goes on to Say "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the programand notify you if a solution is available. "But Windows is not notifying me of any solution. And I can't print and it then closes the program. I contacted company and they recommended I uninstall and reinstall the program which I did and the same issue continues to occur. I have Windows Vista Home Basic so I wonder if there is something in Windows Vista causing this and where can I find a fix.

This is my first post as a new member so please forgive me if this is not an appropriate thread. My problem is that I have recently built a new rig with vista 64 HP as the O/S but cant seem to get it to stabilise with 4 Gigs of memory. The system is fine with 2 and 3 Gigs but becomes unstable with 4 Gigs when running process hungry applications such as COD 4. The game will freeze and if I drop out through task manager the screen is then full of graphical glitches.
I have changed the RAM several times and after the system has become unstable I have had it tested and it wasnt corrupted. First try was, OCZ 4 Gig Kit (2x2048). Second try was, Corsair 4 Gig Kit (2x2048). Not sure if one of the Motherboard RAM Module Channels may be at fault as I have had a lot more success with 1 Gig sticks.

I recently ordered 500 Vista desktops and 150 Vista laptops from a vendor preloaded with a RTM edition of Vista Business. When we started loading Office 2007 this week, the Windows Installer stopped four times with errors. Vista gave a message saying we should upgrade to the retail version of Vista (I wish I could send a screenshot). After checking the build level we saw it was build 6000. My team checked some MSDN blogs and saw build 6000 is not viewed as a genuine Vista build. What do I do?! If this is the case, I'm not going to be able to meet my SLA with my Enterprise users.

I finished building my first computer this morning, and installed vista home premium 64 OEM to finish it off. Specs are:
Asus P5N E SLI
8600GT
Corsair 4gb 800mhz
q6600 Quad Core
I've updated the bios to the latest version, and have put all drivers on but Vista keeps crashing. It freezes for no apparent reason. I've been using Vista HP (32) on my 2yr old laptop with no problems (I'm using it to type to you all now), and I'm lost as to what is wrong. I've had a very brief look around and it sounds like another user on here has had a similar problem, but as I've just built the whole system I'm wondering if there's anything I've missed which is causing it to crash/freeze/generally be unresponsive?

Windows Vista Service Pack 2 Build 16489. Microsoft has begun testing Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2) and intends to ship this release in the second quarter of 2009. Note that there are no new features in SP2; this is a more typical service pack that aggregates previously-released fixes. Here are some screenshots from the first external build of SP2, build 16489. Read more at the source.

i know that water cooling is less noisy, takes up less room and cools more efficiently. but how much do the temperatures drop on average from standard air coolers? i want to have a go at decent overclocking when i build my new rig (not what it drops down to, how much it cools down )=

Days after the leak of build 7022 (32-bit) to public torrent sites, WinFuture.de has posted a screenshot clearly showing a 64-bit Enterprise edition of build 7032. We already know of a build 7034, but this is significant because there have been no screenshots or any other tangible proof of any of the 703x builds. The screenshot shows the following build string: "'6.1.7032.0.winmain.090129-1812," meaning that the build was compiled on January 29, 2009 at 6:12PM. Since it is an interim build, it's not surprising that the screenshot shows the build expiring on July 2, 2009.
Other than the new build number, the screenshot (full-size image) does not show too much. A date is shown in the bottom left in a European format, but all this shows is that the screenshot was taken today. There appears to be a new icon in the taskbar, but it's not clear what it's for. IE8 is still at RC1, which is not surprising. The user has Hibernate set as the default for the power button in the start menu, but this doesn't necessarily mean Microsoft has changed it from Shut Down.

This is what happened, i installed 5308 on a fresh clean hard disk that has no previous errors and by all accounts is in a good working order. I ran the install from the DVD drive during boot, then carried out a full new install on to the clean disk, The install process proceded with out error, however the installer finished copying data to the hard drive and started its reboot sequence. at this point my computer fails to boot. Im not talking about corrupt boot sectors im talking about serious issue thats stopping my compter from finishing its POST. i am unable to access the BIOS, i am unable to change the boot order using the built in boot selector program.
The POST sequence gets up to detecting the IDE drives, it then tells me the name and model number of the connected drives and tells me SMART is active and ok, at this point the system fails POST with no error messages. If i disconnect the drive in question the system will post correctly and will boot to my other SATA drives. I have tried new cables, i have tried changing drive between master and slave, and primary and secondery controlers.....

I am about to install Vista64 home premium on a new build with 8 megs of RAM. The disk is Vista64 SP1. I was wondering if it is still recommended to install Vista64 with only 1 stick of RAM first prior to installing all 8 megs? Or because the disk has SP1, is this no longer an issue?

I would like to check the memory for errors BEFORE I load/install Windows Vista Home Premium x64 to avoid install hang-ups. Can you make an ISO CD of this program, load it in your CD/DVD drive and check your memory for errors? I recently updated the BIOS on the board (DP35DP) and it does show all of the 4GB of Kingston ValueRam PC800 1.8v (2x2gb) installed. I have good reason to believe that it's from a respectable manufacturer. Just want to make sure the memory is good before I load up the OS.

I'm assuming a clean install with an upgrade license will be identical to a clean install with a 'full' copy, except that at some point during the process, it will ask for my key for Windows XP? I just want to confirm this is the case before I go buy an upgrade copy. one last question to tack on here - if I have a desktop and a laptop computer will it let me install the same copy and license key of Vista on both? I know some MS products in the past have allowed you to install on more than one computer because they realize a lot of people have more than one computer but they only work with one at a given time.

I've tried numerous times to Install Vista Sp1, but without success. The install appers to go well, reaching 100% at stage 3, but then the screen reports the SP did not successfully install, and proceeds to roll back. On Checking the message in Windows Update, the install failed with error 80004005. I've raised the issue directly with MS, but the advice to install the SP in Safe mode has not helped. I've also trawled various forums and cannot find any reference to the specific error code.
I own a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ1. A number of forums seem to suggest it might be a hardware issue, and I have tried disabling / uninstalling various devices to
see if this helps, but this also has not got me any further. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know what this error code means? Is there a way to force the SP to install despite this error code (it does get to 100% at stage 3 after all, so maybe it does install, but one of the packages check routines is picking up an error which doesn't really exist???)

I could do a repair install, install new motherboard drivers and possibly have to validate all over again the same as you always did with XP but no good. I cannot get into Windows at all so cant run repair from WITHIN windows and no option from the boot DVD works. So, do you have to lose everything each time you upgrade hardware or some part of it dies meaning you are forced to upgrade hardware?
I installed from Vista Business pre SP1 and installed SP1 before the motherboard died.
