Reinstalled Windows Update File Can Not Show Desktop Icon
Dec 27, 2008So today I'm enjoying my 2 day old Vista. I've had a crappy 2003 Compaq XP for EVER now, and I was happy to get a new computer, completely crappy OS or not. (Yes, I've heard the rumors about Vista, so I was prepared for lots and lots of hours of troubleshooting!) I want to look around and explore, so I click on my start menu. Nothing. The My Computer, Control Panel, etc etc etc is on there. But nothing. I click 'all programs', and it's all there. I tried to modify the settings on my start menu, I pressed OK and out of curiosity went back into my Start Menu settings to check-- And they were back to what they were before!!
My easy way out has always been, since my XP was crap, to completely restore my computer, suck it up, reinstall everything and start fresh. So I decided to add a new WinRAR .rar folder thing, put all my pictures in there, put it on Megaupload.com and download the file after I restore Vista. I right clicked. Went under 'New > (Empty)'.
I almost cried! My baby, my brand new vista, already encountering problems! I installed daemon tools, PHotoshop CS2, poweriso, AIM, itunes, basically my necessities, within the two day period. I turned my computer on, no problems. My norton preformed its scheduled scan this morning at 6am, and I had a trojan horse and it can't be repaired. I've had thousands of those on my old computer and it ran at full speed with no problems, but could this be the reason? I restarted it two, three hours ago so my daemon tools can finish installing, and that's when I realized my start menu and things were messed up. Also, when I went into my computer after I restarted, the theme was set on 'windows classic', my background was left untouched. I cannot drag and drop anything into the start menu. It says I can, but I can't. Desktop icons are fine. I also installed 16 or so updates because I guess my Vista isn't up to date-- It did it automatically. Also, links, pictures, etc, like 'My Computer', My 'C:' drive, 'My Pictures', pictures, music, etc in Folders, have a check mark beside them.
Reinstalled -key Wont Work
Mar 26, 2008I recently had to to re-install vista, my comp was infested with viruses and they had written themselves over my sytem restore points, so I went ahead and just reinstalled vista. Now thought its asking me to activate vista. I keep trying to enter the key but I get an error saying that key is only for upgrades, not fresh installs. I dont know what to do, I have upgraded my comp significantly since I originally got vista so that may be why but now what? Im not dropping 59 bucks to talk to someone from tech support and Im sure as heck not buying a new key.

Jul 28, 2009I recently purchased a Gateway laptop M-6888U that had no software disc provided. I was told by Bestbuy to simply backup my entire drive. I wish to know is there a way to make a recovery disc that WILL install a fresh copy of vista64 or am I screwed since everyone is trying to cut corners? I know I can make a recovery disc that works IF I have a working installation of my OS. My concern is if the drive gets corrupted and my OS needs to be reinstalled I'm screwed, with my only option being to purchase a new copy of Vista.

I understand that the old factory settings are way outdated by now, but what am I supposed to do to get it all working right, if Windows Update fails?
View 6 Replies View RelatedReinstalled Vista Can Not Working Printer
Feb 6, 2009I don't even have a Vista Computer, but one is arriving in a few days - Vista Ultimate My old XP computer drives two four year old printers - one HP all-in -one LaserJet and one Epson inkjet. When I installed these printers on the XP machine, each came with a CD with the installation software (drivers, manual PDF, etc..).I assume I now must get updated CD's or some other arrangement to get the printers re-installed. Here are several questions
1. Do the vendors usually either wash their hands and tell you to get a new printer?
2. How do I get the appropriate software? Printer vendor web-sites?
3. Generally, do pre-Vista peripherals, and particularl printer/scanner/fax machines install without problems?

Aug 10, 2009I have a Lenovo IdeaCentre K210 Desktop Vista HP system that came with a 500G HD that I Partitioned to ???C??? (Windows), ???D??? (Data files) and ?E? (Photos) drive. I recently purchased another 500G HD which was designated as Disk1 (the original HD was Disk0) and installed Vista HP on Disk1 and Partitioned the 2nd HD (Disk1) to ???F??? (Vista HP), ???G??? (data files) and ???H??? (Photos) and thought that I could format/delete the ???C???, ???D??? and ???E??? Partitions on Disk0 and use that HD for future storage but it appears what I want to do is not something that I am able to do. I was able to delete Partitions ???D??? and ???E??? and Formatted ???C??? but not all of ???C???, apparently there are some files on ???C??? (i.e. the original HD that contained Vista HP before I purchased the 2nd HD), that I am unable to erase / delete / format.
As best as I can tell, ???C??? is 125.5MB with 107.8MB Used and 17.7MB Free and contains the following folders: $RECYCLE.BIN, BOOT, System Volume Information. My objective / what I would like to do is, delete or format EVERYTHING on ???C??? so that I will have 500G HD, Disk0 that I can use for additional storage.I also would like to change and/or re-label Disk0 to be Disk1 and Disk1 to be Disk0, since this is the disk that contains Vista HP and all my programs, apps, data files, photos,?.

Oct 16, 2009I recently had to have Vista Business reinstalled b/c my computer crashed. I have a complete backup on an external drive using Vista Backup & Restore (keeping my fingers crossed it is a good one) but it is from several months ago so I decided to have the tech that was checking out my computer do a backup before reinstall. Unfortunately, he couldn't backup everything and I am missing quite a bit of stuff. I have no idea how the complete restore would work. Am I able to select certain data to restore? Does it restore things back to their original location?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWindows Vist 64-bit Is Not Display Properly
Oct 4, 2008I'm in the process of building a PC, so I thought I'd try the ole Windows Vista 64-bit version for the machine. I've got for the machine, a Philips 22" 220CW8FB/05 LCD wide screen monitor, which has a nice display, really.As one does, I've calibrated said monitor and saved the settings, everything looked great. Experience tells me to be weary of what might happen, so I restarted the PC to see that my monitor's resolution and setting aren't displayed properly. The image is stretched vertically,the Start bar isn't even visible - until - I go Personalize > and adjust the resolution to something else, select No when asked if I'd like to keep it and hey presto, my monitor displays properly now. Problem is, I have to do that every single time I restart the machine. Currently, I've got just the drivers that come with my components CDs, I haven't been able to check on-line for other versions (but there isn't one for the monitor) for say the motherboard or graphics card, because in one of typically brilliant Windows moments™ (like when my mouse stopped working and it prompted me to "click here to fix the problem"), when I tried to install the -Vista compatible- modem, Vista said it wouldn't install it without a digital signature, and that I should go to the manufacturer's website for more information. I would. If I had a modem. So, in your humble opinion, which is the bigger waste of money currently? Vista or my monitor (twice as expensive as Vista)? Alternatively, any suggestions as to how I would be able to resolve the aforementioned conflict? I'd really like to keep both of them.PS. I guess it could also be a graphics card problem. It's French (not really, it's from Taiwan, an MSI NX8800GT).

Dec 16, 2009i tried installing a hacked version of windows vista so i could upgrade from a 32bit OS to x64 but the only changes that happened is:
1)a new screen right before the vista startup music screen pops up appeared after i "installed" the hacked version which says "A WORLD WITHOUT RELIGION" over a pic of the NYC skyline. it is there for maybe 30 seconds then dissapears and the computer starts normally
2) i am no longer able to sleep/hibernate my laptop. If i try, it turns on but i get a blank screen so i have to either pull the battery out or hard reset in order to get my laptop working again. vista, or at least on my laptop, isnt the quickest to start up so having to do this everytime i use my laptop is extremly annoying i have no clue what to do or how to take it off.

View 6 Replies View RelatedVist System Will Not Talk Reliably 3 Routers Either Lan Or Wan
Apr 1, 2009I'm trying to be as brief as I can...I just built myself a new Vista Ultimate with SP1 system to take the place of my previous entertainment system, Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. In my home network, the Entertainment System box is my gateway to the internet, via a dial-up connection. I'm in an area where I can't get DSL or cable. I've successfully used ICS on 3 different Windows builds over the years, from Win98 to WinME to WinXP, all setup on the WAN port of routers. This effectively isolates the Windows box running ICS from the other two computers I run on the LAN. My WAN IP range is thus controlled by the DHCP service built into ICS, and I'm free to use anothe IP range on my LAN instead of 192.168.0.x that ICS assigns. There is only this system with it's dial-up connection on the WAN side; the system is essentially behaving like a slow DSL modem.
Here's the problem: my brand new Vista Ultimate entertainment system will not talk reliably to any of the 3 routers I've tried, on EITHER LAN OR WAN! 2 of the 3 routers I have used with my previous XP-based entertainment system, and they behave just fine. What is it about ICS in Vista that is preventing me from even accessing the setup for my routers? I've tried turning off Windows firewall, disabling IPv6 and Network Discovery, etc. until I'm blue in the face, but nothiing helps. Even if I connect Vista to the LAN side and set proper static IP to reach router configuration, I'm denied! I bought a new Belkin wireless N router today, thinking it HAS to be a compatibility issue, but even this "Vista ready" router will NOT let me even configure it using the Vista OS. I sure hope someone can give me some answers that help me understand. I hate to think I might have to put my XP Media Center box back in the dial-up sharing position just to get my internet connection back to my other computers again....

Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software ventor for support.The cryptui.dll file in the system32 folder is 949 KB in size. I have found a new cryptui.dll file on the internet but it is only 500 KB in size which would suggest it is not the correct replacement. I have also tried to rename the original cryptui.dll file, but could not do this even in safe mode. I am not sure what or when this change happened.
