Upgrade To X64 From XP X32:vista Setup Files Are Not Win32 Compatible
Apr 19, 2009
I have recently purchased Vista 64bit via digital rivers "Ultimate Steal". I checked through Windows update advisor that it was possible to run this on my machine and it said that it would be (I am running XP pro x32 on an X58i motherboard with i7-920 processor and 6GB ram). As instructed I have downloaded the three files onto my computer (X14-63453.exe, bootwim, bootmgr.efi) and stored them into a "read and write" enabled folder on my desktop. When I run the file "X14-63453.exe" A new folder "Vista" is createdand several subfolders and files extracted but then I get and error message saying "" I believe the problem is that I am trying to install vista x64 from an XP pro x32 OS, and the vista setup files are not Win32 compatible....is this correct. If so what is the work around? In understand there is a trial version of XP x64 for download - Where is it?. Can I install this first and then download the Vista setup files onto my new desktop and proceed that way.

I am using Vista Home Premium and cannot open .php files created with Microsoft Greetins since Microsoft Greetings (the best Greeting card program ever made!) is incompatible with Vista. How can one open the files created in the .php format? Adobe Go-Live tries to open them, but fails.

I turned on my computer the other day and an automatic download started to update my Verizon Internet Security Suiter (FIOS). I started a scan of my computer with the update. The new Security Suite update supposedly found 29,000+ infected files with a virus named Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.dck? The weird thing is - When I look for the files that are supposedly infected - or the folder that these files supposedly exist in I can't find it. The virus appears to have created a folder named " ' " on my hard drive - but when I look for this folder I can't find it. Even if I view hidden folders. My computer doesn't appear to be running strangly like it is infected. But the virus scan says it is.

I'm thinking about upgraded my system from a 32bit to a 64bit. I have a few questions. First can I overlay 64 on top of 32? How can I check if my system if it is 64bit compatible? What version of vista would I need? Would I need some major internal upgrades ie...graphics card, ram and so on before upgrade of OS?

Does anyone out there have any information on how to get rid of the spyware Trojan.Win32.Agent.azsy that we downloaded onto our Vista laptop? Most websites either force you to pay for a solution or tell you to remove files--files which don't exist in the first place.

How do I find out if I have software on my pc that is not compatible with Vista? A month or so ago I kept getting a popup message and I went through all the steps, but did not come up with anything and now every time I sign in to my user the screen comes up for a few seconds and then "blinks". everything else seems to be fine - I just find the blink annoying and concerning (it seems that it is eventually not a good thing).

All the functions you are likely to need , including partition undelete and partition/disk copy as well as move/resize, etc. Supported filesystems FAT and NTFS - so only for Windows users. Free Download Partition Wizard Competition is really hotting up in the disk management area.

Without a doubt the worst windows version ever made! Microsoft were finally on track with windows XP pro but they had to go and screw it up by bringing us vista! Nothing works, nothing is compatible every program supposedly compatible seizes or shuts down! It is constantly vulnerable to viruses! There's no end to the complaints I have about this crappy version of windows! Wake up microsoft because you're just soft now and nothing micro about it!

Several months ago, I was attempting to install software that I didn't think to consider was not compatible with Vista. It was made for Windows XP, and I was deleting files on my C: Drive to make room. I accidentally deleted a file that took my desktop with it. Now, when I log on, to any user on the computer, there is a black screen with the "My Computer" window up. I've included a picture to show. Minimized windows are irrelevant. I'm just multi-tasking at the moment.

About programming and is directed at the programmers and developers who may monitor this site. If this is the wrong forum in which to be posting, please direct me to the correct site.To provide a little background: a few years back when I was running XP I spent some considerable time learning the basics of programming using Liberty Basic. After some success with this platform I decided it was time to attempt to expand my knowledge using a more flexible and comprehensive platform. I purchased the referenced product version 2003. I had really just gotten into it when I accepted a number of contract positions that kept me out of the country for a number of years. (Construction supervision constantly on the move.) When I finally retired and went back to the computer for pleasure and learning, I switched to Vista as my O/S. I went back and brushed up on my knowledge using liberty Basic and have decided it is time to give C++ programming another try. I have installed the required platform, but I get a message telling me that there is compatibility issues.
My questions are these: is the 2003 version of this platform compatible with Vista? If not, can I update it or will I have to purchase a newer version? I have checked the links provided with the disks to update at least some of the components (there has to be about a hundred different upgrades and I'm not sure which ones I will require.)

My Vista Ultimate SP2 originally was setup from a variation slimmed by vlite. WMC was completely left out. Now I want to add WMC, while preserving the system as it grew within 3 years. No fresh install. An installation DVD or iso image are at hand. What workaround will do the job?

I know that the normal way to go about dual boot is to install the oldest OS first, but I just discovered (after a year) some old programs which won't run on my Vista 64 setup. I'd like to run these old programs but at the cost of uninstalling /reinstalling Vista it's not worth it. I have quite a bit of space, so making a new boot partition for ocasional boots - without the uninstall just choose which disk volum to boot from

We use hundreds of photos a day to cut out, and edit and use on our online ecommerce shopfronts. We have no software now that lets us cut out objects and put them into new backgrounds. I dont care that you took PICTUREIT! away (WELL I DO CARE), if you had replaced it with something else that was equally as functional or better, but to take it away and not replace it with anything comparible is rediculous! You have gone back 7 years in time
People use this software every single day of the week. I use it so much I would be willing to pay a per month price to have access to it ! Could Microsoft PLEASE give us a suitable program that is VISTA compatible. Why dont you just make these obsolete products available by monthly subscription ? you would make HEAPS of money off it and your customers would be a lot happier than they are now !

find an external (USB) voice modem that would be compatible with Vista. There should be mic in, spkr out jacks on the modem for it to be a true voice modem. I would like to use my computer as a telephone. I want to be able to plug the telephone landline into the external modem, and use programs (such as MS Outlook) to make telephone calls from my computer.

If you have a video card that is using WDDM drivers and supports DirectX 9c but is not allowing you to use vista glass, there is a cool trick that you can use to force Aero to run. Follow the steps below:
Click on the start button and key in regedit and hit Enter.
Navigate through, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Microsoft, Windows and DWM.
Set Composition to 1 and CompositionPolicy to 2.
Restart the DWM by restarting the Desktop Windows Manager Session Manager service. This can be done in services.msc or by typing net stop uxsms and net start uxsms at command prompt....
