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.
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 Should I play it safe I install the 32-bit version even though it may be outdated soon (and not see all the RAM), or will 32-bit be the way forward for a few years yet to come?
I am having trouble installing iTunes on windows vista 32bit. It downloads ok but when i try to run it error msg is 'itunes setup is not a valid win 32 application' i have checked and version 8 iTunes should be compatible with vista. I can't even install quicktime.
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.
my windows vista is not working! yesterday it was ok but today when i turned on my computer it was not working and nothing is coming out. it says that invalid product key and BUILD 6000 or something like that.How am i gonna fix it?i can't even see my desktop. its just black desktop and nothings coming out
When I begin installng physx every thing goes ok, but when it is about to finish. Translating things that is not in english: Error 1935. Error when installing assembly. OR "Error when trying to install assembly" Last LINE: "Contact help and suport for more information"
When attempting to install Office XP from original disc (previously used on an older computer) on new Vista computer, "Error opening installation log file. Verify that the specified log file location exists and is writable" was encountered.
I have a laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium. I have tried 4 times to update to the Vista SP 1. All 4 times the install has failed with an error code of 80041315.
recently got vista 32bit so now installing my old games on this comp though when i got to installing bladerunner an error message comes up saying c:windowssystem32config.nt is missing.
Heres the story...I recently purchased a new PC running Vista Home Premium and when I got it home, I wanted to test its graphics, so I downloaded the free PC game, America's Army. When I tried to install, I received an error about ISKernels. When I searched this error, I found that I needed to download some service packs for Invest Sign. When I downloaded these and attempt to install them, I am prompted by Vista to "Enter the Password." Now, when I created my Admin account, I did not enter a password, so I have no clue what password they may mean. While investigating this problem, I have attempted to right-click the files and select "Run As Administrator," as well as creating a password and then trying ot use that during installation. Unfortunately, neither of these things work. Is there a default Vista password or is this a bug?
I am using Vista buisness 64 bit and try to install miktex. At all there is no problem in the installation process, however, by updating or installing packages by the package manager I get Error: Permission denied: :UsersMichaelAppDataLocalMiKTeX2.7miktexconfig5c9c2effd97adbeacc8bf220bf73149c.fndb I have no clue, how to correct this problem, for I am running as System administrator so I should have access.
We keep getting a Fatal Error when installing the HP wireless printer.We are working with the CD that HP supplied specially for Vista. The install gets close to finishing that then we get the message of a Fatal Error. Does anyone have a solution to this, or help so that we can get the printer and software loaded up and working?
I bought a new laptop with Vista Home Premium and was told that I could install office 2003 without a problem. I have the disc for small business office 2003, that I have installed on my PC with windows XP pro. I load the disc and the wizard opens and starts the download but stops about 1/4 of the way through saying there is an error- a file is missing and to use the disc ( which I already have in the drive).
I recently purchadsed a computer and have been using it for about three weeks. Yesterday i had a message that my Windows Vista was not genuine and needed to re-enter the product key. I did that from the sticker on the copmuter, but I still have a littel message in the bottom right of my desktop screen that says "Windows Vista BUild 6000 This copy of Windows is not genuine". What do i Do about that?
i have had vista installed and running but i took my computer back to factory settings using the upgrade disc, i have now had an error code 0x004f06i saying software licence determined that this specified product key can only be used for upgrading and not for clean installation i am not up on these things i think i no what it means but can i do anything about it they are saying my subscription will end in 26 days but this is a legal disc that i bought.
The whole administration thing. Obviously if I am the only account on the computer, I'm going to be the administrator. I was downloading a program earlier, and when I went to install it, I was given the error "You must be logged in as an administrator when installing this program"
The often heard recurring theme spread by no nothing trolls and fanboys is if Vista isn't working right, it must be something you did rather than owning up to how badly Vista is designed once you start poking around and SEE how badly implemented it is. Much of the frustration with Vista comes from it's applets crashing or acting up for no apparent reason. Since these applets are INTERNAL and built-in as part of Vista's core the often heard excuse it's some third party driver, a hardware problem or other software you installed is proven to be bogus.
When something happens to either crash or slow down Vista it usually gets documented in Vista's Error Logs. However like most everything else Microsoft does, the logs are of little actual value other than pointing to how poorly designed and broken Vista really is.
To illustrate how broken Vista is, here's my experience this morning. As usual I started my day going to Google (my default home page) and clicking on News to see what the headlines were. Microsoft's browser hung. Waiting for it to respond, after 90 seconds I gave up and sure enough was treated to the usual BS asking if you want to wait longer or shut it down. I shut IE7 down. Next I went to Event Viewer......
I have a PC running Vista Business. It will not successful run a repair, I do not find an option (when I boot from the cd) to wipe it out and reload the OS.
Have HP Pavioin with VISTA, one physical drive (C with four partitions on it.
C: is the one with VISTA
D: recovery
E and F - logical partitions for data storage.
Want to install XP into one of the existong partitions. However when the installation process come to the screen to select a partition it shows no partition at all. Instead it shows four things which look like drive placeholders, each saying that there is no drive in it.
I was planning to purchase my new computer with Vista OS. I had in mind to install all my applications I currently have on Windows 2000 onto Vista. This could be Photoshop, Dreamweaver, some image and video editing software, some tools, etc. I heard from some technical sources that Vista will become buggy with the old applications installed. Could anyone confirm that from your own experience and describe the bugs if any, so I could have a better understanding what to expect. Perhaps, a better advice would be to stay with Windows XP for a fewyears?
Installing Vista took about an hour. I'm seriously! Booting into the desktop is painfully slow. Task Manager shows the CPU spiked to 100%, but on closer inspection, no process in the list of "All Users" shows what's taking up the resource. All other desktop tasks are a SLIDE SHOW: opening windows, right clicking items, My Computer, Start menu, etc. I won't even bother commenting on the administrative popups and how long they take to appear and disappear. My first instinct was to search for 'cpu 100% max' and found other posts scattered throughout:
* disable the SSPD service. -- made no difference for me. * disable the DNS Client service. -- made no difference for me........
I have a brand new genuine XP kit to replace windows vista, so we can run the software/hardware I need at work. Before the installation even begins, while the XP CD is still loading files, I get a bluescreen telling me windows has encountered a problem, and was forced to shut down to protect the system. Basically something in Vista wont let the XP CD even begin installation. I don't know what to do, I've been trying to re-format the hard-drive, IE blow away everything vista related, so it can't fight the XP installation. But some of the sys32 files can't even be removed. I've been doing a lot of research, and I've read some mixed opinions on the subject. Some folks say you can't replace Vista w/ XP, some say it needs to be dual boot, I've also been reading about slip discs and SATA drivers, I'm really not sure how these are supposed to work. But I've made a SLip Disc and copied all the XP v3 files I could. Still, I keep comming back to the problem of the XP CD not even begging installation.
I'll upload a picture of the bluescreen when I bring my camera to work tomorrow. I guess what I really needs is an in-depth explanation of some of these tricks I've been reading about. Right now I'm working with vistabootpro, I just set the Vista OS to legacy, I don't know if that will help at all! Also, for some reason I have a 1TB harddrive, yet I can only partition it into a 100GB and 900GB volume, so the dual boot isn't really feasible anyway. So, I'm open to all suggestions! I really need help, I'm the one who ordered this computer. Not realising that NEITHER my software or hardware is supported by Vista or windows 7. XP is the only OS that will do the job. Now, I'm pretty decent with computers, so don't ve afraid to lay it on thick. WHat it comes down to getting as many suggestions and possiblties to throw at this problem. I'll be back tomorrow with a pic of the error screen prior to XP installation. If I've omitted important information, please don't be afraid to question me, all I know is I've got to solve this problem and get XP running. There is nothing I need to save on this computer. Since I have V3 of XP I think I have the important drivers as well, essentially nothing is too risky to try, as long as I end up with XP. sorry about the long-winded rant. I'm very frustrated and worked up about this, kicking myself for not doing my homework.
after my computer automaticlly updating and installing vista sp1, on reboot i have no mouse cursor and in device manager there is no HID section, the light on my mouse is on but thers no cursor . it just looks like vista SP1 has just removed all forms of mouse drivers
here is what i like to do right now i have window 7 on a brand new [500]hard drive .tomorrow i will get my brand new [250] hard drive and i like to install vista on it .but not using dualboot .but all i have is a upgrade cd that came with my computer when i got it in 2007 is that possible to do. i am not to good with computer .am 66 and no school. so all i will do is turn off my pc and disconnect the red cable from w-7 and connect it to the vista drive .and leave the power connected on the 2 drive maybe one time a month.
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.
