I have the following issue and hope that somebody can give me a hint about what might be going on! My system has two raid 1 arrays - one is running on XP Professional SP3 the other one is running on Vista x64 Ultimate SP1. When I start my virtual machines (either from the Virtual PC console or when double-clicking the *.vmc files) than everything is working fine on XP and the virtual machines are booting and running as expected. However, on Vista the following is happening (and I hope somebody has an idea):
1. Starting the Virtual machines from the console leads to an immediate reboot of my host machine (I can't even see any boot screen of the virtual machine - it is like clicking start in the VPC console -- > reboot of host).
Now I tried the following:.........

In Windows Vista SP1 and XP SP3 the remote desktop client has been updated to version 6.1. In this new version running mstsc /console to get to the console session no longer works. With RDP 6.1 you need to use the new /admin flag.Â
To get to the console session run: mstsc /admin ...

Is there a recovery console in Vista? If so, How do you install it? Is the Starup the sane thing? Can it be installed other than uses it from the disk?

I have a Vista host (V) running on a computer inside a firewalled network. I am outside the firewall and so cannot access the computer directly. However, I have access to a Linux host (L) which can access 'V'. Now I have an RDP server running on 'V' which accepts any RDP connection without a prompt. But an X server is not running on 'L' so that I cannot open an 'rdesktop' window. Is there a way to access 'V' from 'L' purely through the command line using the RDP server running
on 'V'?

After installing the Vista Service Pack 1 update, I can no longer connect to the remote machine's console session. Prioir to SP1 I could connect to the console of the remote machine using Remote Desktop. Now when I connect I get a fresh desktop and not the console. Has anyone else run into this or found a fix?

Prior to formatting my computer my soundcard and its software worked perfectly however after i formatted, my creative audio console doesnt really work properly. For example. Before if i adjusted the master volume in the audio console, it would synronise and adjust the volume in the default windows sound mixer now it doesnt. Secondly before if i plugged in headphones the sound would autmatically go through the headphones and mute the speakers. Now if i open the console and go to the headphones section, I have mute speakers checked and automatically enable headphone settings checked and if i plug in my headphones, sound still comes out of speakers but if i press test in the audio console, the test lady voice comes through the headphones whilst other sounds still continues through the speakers. I have reinstalled the drivers twice now and updated the drivers.

I downloaded Windows 7 RC1 with the intent of adding a partition to my HDD and dual booting. My understanding is that I would need a 16GB partition. My Disk Management Console tells me I have two existing primary partitions (expected). D (the recovery partition) is 6.62GB. The other (C) makes up the difference (~142GB) and has 47.1GB free space. When I begin the "shrink volume" process, it says that only 3MB is available to shrink C. I checked the page file and it has less than 3GB allocated to it. So, I have two questions. First, why isn't more shrinkage ;>) space available? Two, assuming that with your help I can find more space, if I try to create a 16GB partition from C will I significantly affect computer performance?

I've been getting this error message when I try to open certain control panel functions from the RUN command line or through the MMC console itself. Other functions like performance information, user accounts and parental controls don't respond when clicked. Windows update might flash up the beginnings of a window for a split second but wont load. I've got the update icon on my task bar saying it cant update. Other than some key function being inaccessible the PC runs fine (apart form Firefox has started crashing out every now again) I can install software ok.
I've run the SVG /scannow thing and it found no problem Its my home PC sp I am setup as administrator. This problem is effecting another vanilla admin account AND the hidden Admin account. I've virus scanned in safe mode. System restore went through the motions but after it had restarted the PC it said it couldn't actually restore........

I read something on another forum about if you are using x86 and want to upgrade to x64 you can use the same key to activate both . Any truth in that at all ? I have OEM and not boxed retail.

I have one situation I cant seem to figure out. Ive followed all the steps for activating the hidden admin account on vista by going into the admin command prompt and putting in the command and then logging off, but when i log off, its still just my account on there..when i go under the list of user accounts it says mine and then one "unknown". Any ideas on how I can really activate the account?

Alright I bought a Toshiba Satellite A100/A105 Laptop. Well when I bought it, I tryed to get Windows onto my Laptop and did. But then I had to Defrag my whole Computer and the little sticker that was on the bottom of my Laptop with the Windows Info came off and then my Mother cleaned my room and she threw away the sticker. So I could not Activate windows.

or
2. Get a new Product key without spending another $100 USD For Windows Again.

I had to reinstall Vista due to malware that I could not get off my computer. I could not do a repair, and now Vista is new on my system. The problem is that I now cannot activate it, and I get a notice that says that I need to enter a new number. I do not think that I need to, but I don't know how to reactivate. I called Microsoft, but the person (honestly) hung up on me.

Never Re-Activate After Installation. if you have to reinstall Windows XP you normally will have to reactivate too. Well not anymore. Just copy wpa.dbl after you activated the first time. It is located in the WINDOWSsystem32 folder. Now if you reinstall Windows XP just copy the file back and you're up and running again.

I was using my purchased Vista Ultimate just fine on my first PC. But I just upgraded the motherboard and pretty much everything else. Now it's a new PC. So I took my Vista install CD, installed it on my new machine. Now I can't activate it. It won't let me saying it's already been activated. I recall someone told me that Vista activation is tied to the initial hardware you install it on. Is this really the case? If so, there has to be a resolution to this as Microsoft can't be that stupid to restrict you like this. I mean how am I supposed to upgrade my fing PC!? What do I do? I don't want to spend $60 on a support ticket. I tried to put in my PID which also now it's saying has expired!

So I just upgraded from Windows XP to Vista x64. Since I got the retail packaged upgrade, I have both the x64 and x32 DVDs. I think I know the answer already, but, I take it that licensing would not allow me to activate both the x32 and x64 versions on the same PC, or seperate PCs for that matter?

how to activate Windows Defender? I have tried all the assistance listed in this group and still cannot get Defender to work! One piece of advice was to log on to the C prompt as system administrator? I tried to right click on the prompt but there is nothing on the drop down menu that allows me to do this.

WARNING!! Vista Windows Genuine Activation (WGA) Problems: Genuine Microsoft Software Advantage. There is a problem with Microsoft's WGA servers and they are not allowing Vista to be activated as Genuine.
Do not do anything that would require you to reactivate or validate Vista. EX: Windows Updates, Hot Fixes, Activation, etc. Wait a week before trying again to give Microsoft a chance to sort through the problem. If you do not, you will be left with a Vista that is considered not Genuine. If your 30 day trial period is almost up, or you are already in Reduced Functionality Mode, then see: - Read Tutorial
