now i know there is an automatic way of backing up files and folders using windows vista but i was wondering if there was a way of automatically backing up my complete system. now i've tried using Acronis True Image for this but i'm afraid that i won't be able to restore if my boot drive gets corrupt or i don't have an OS to installed Acronis to and load the back up image.

I just bought and built my new computer, installing Vista Ultimate on it. The processor is a q9550 and judging from the '64-bit architecture' i assumed it was 64bit compatible. everytime i try to install vista i get a 32bit installation. this computer has 8gigs of ram, only recognizing 3.52gb. any thoughts? i'm about 18 installations in atm, getting quite frustrated.

I am looking for a means to create system backup of my Vista Home premium version in case I shall ever have to reinstall the system, for instance on a new harddisk. The backup help on my system tells me that the tool for this task is a "PC Complete backup", but also that this is not available on Vista home versions. Apparently this system backup must be burned on a CD (or DVD), but where can I find a utility that does just that?

I did a complete PC backup of my system onto an external USB HDD using the backup facility in VISTA Ultimate. When I went to do a complete PC restore I am told form the Help info on VISTA Ultimate to restart my computer, push F8 and choose the 'repair' option to run the restore. WHen I do this I get the safe mode options, debugging mode etc etc but there is no 'repair' mode. How do I get to the repair mode??

I haven't gotten a reply back on the lost messages that I posted, but some of the important ones are still here in OE. So I would like to come back to my OE. I've had it with Vista.
How can I do an export from Vista's Windows Mail and then import them back into Outlook Express ? I saw PA Bears note about doing a drag and drop of ".eml files but how do they convert to the .dbx format for OE ?

I have an Acer PC with Vista Home Premium preinstalled.
I want to upgrade to Windows 7 rc.
If I do not like Windows7 (or have issues with it) and want to revert to Vista, can I simply uninstall the Upgrade?

There have been many posts about backup problems in Vista. I too was having problems. I kept researching for answers and maybe the following will help someone else with their problem. I counld not get the backup to work properly. I kept getting BACKUP FAILED messages.
I even reformatted the Hard Drive and then still ran into the problem. I read all the treads, and saw numerous refernces to REGISTRY CLEANERS. I like my 3B REGISTRY REPAIR PRO but trying to correct the backup problem, I restalled the original registry. and then tried to Back Up. Result. NO MORE BACKUP FAILURE. I am 99% sure, that when a Registry Cleaner is used, It will interfere with the Backup Program, thus generating the problems.

I'm running Microsoft Word 2007. When I go into Mailings/Envelopes and add a recipient's address (I usually change Fonts from the Default), then hit Print, nothing happens at the printer. The image on my monitor goes from the Envelope set-up screen to a blank Microsoft Word document screen. I've got an envelope snuggly tucked into the printer slot. Tried this multiple times without success. I wonder if I'm the only person who's thought about pitching Vista and going back to XP Pro.

I've never had to deal with Parttions before so forgive my ignorance. I am using Vitsa Home Premium and decided to dual boot with Kubuntu which I absolutely hated. I removed Kubuntu by deleting the partition then restoring the boot manager for Vista. The partition that contained Kubuntu is now empty. I would like to merge the partition back into Vista. How do I do this?

I've had a triple-boot set up on my laptop with XP, Vista and Windows 7 beta on three logical volumes. I wanted to uninstall the Win7 beta, and ran this command using the Win7 beta installation disk:
"e:ootsect.exe /nt52 ALL /force" (E: is my DVD drive)
Stupid. Of course, with this parameter I managed to get rid of the Vista boot option as well as Win7. Now the machine only launches XP. Does anybody know a way to get Vista back into the boot menu, short of doing a Vista repair install? I've kept all files on the volumes, it should all be there.

I originally had Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit installed on my computer. I wasn't given a restore disk when I bought my computer from Best Buy, luckily my brother had an old copy of XP Pro 32bit laying around, or at least I felt lucky when he came up with it after using Linux for a week.
My question is will I be able to switch from XP Pro 32bit back to Vista 64bit? I know jack about compatibility, if it isn't obvious. I've tried switching back to Linux Ubuntu 64bit but all I was given was error messages.

I have purchased a new PC, Vista-ready, and I was wondering, if it crashed, will I lose the OS? It didn't come with the Vista CD. So when my PC crashes, does it automatically bring Vista back? Sorry if I used the wrong choice of words, I'm not a pro.

I have a desktop that I upgraded from XP Pro to Vista Ultimate and a laptop running on Windows XP Pro. I recently upgraded both devices from Office 2003 to Office 2007. Before I upgraded the desktop to Vista, I copy the Outlook.pst back and forth the two machines to synchronize my e-mail. Now that the desktop is running on Vista and the laptop still running XP Pro, can I do the same thing to synchronize my e-mail or is there a better solution in synchronizing the pst files.

I installed Vista home premium OEM about 9 months ago and today I got a balloon message saying "I have 8 days left to install Vista. Back up all important data" The balloon messages have appeared recently, but I wasn't quick enough to read it all and I didn't believe it anyway. Just to see, I went through the process of reinstalling, but it was going to be a new install wiping all files and data from my C drive, so I cancelled the install. Would anyone know why this is happening after 9 months and is there anyway I can get around a new install? I have been using Acronis to back up, can I use it to put my settings/files/data back, or will I end up with balloon messages again?

I have been trying to copy some folders from external HDD and whenever I do it, I receive the message. I noticed that if the folder is not big, the copy is completed, but if it is a little big, I receive the message. I also have tried to use drag-and-drog, but it is the same thing.

I performed the complete PC backup but I don't know if it worked and if it did, what discs are valid. It was a confusing process. I have 36 GB to backup and it said it should take 3-5 DVD discs. When I inserted the first disc it said to label it, including the date and time of the backup followed by "1". It did the same thing four times, and each time the progress bar started from the beginning. After the fourth disk, it finally went through verifying the disc and the progress bar went further. It told me to label backup was complete. The last two discs are readable but the other three are not. Did the system back up all 36 GB on two DVDs? If there were errors writing to some discs then it should tell me that the discs are not part of the backup set.

I went to see when the last time my complete PC image was made, on boot up I entered F8 and went to repair PC and went to complete PC backup. There was none made. So I rebooted and went to backup and restore center to make one. There is no backup button. Is this because I have home Premium? It's not offered on Home Premium. Is there a Freeware program that I could use to make it appear on the System repair menu?

I downloaded en_windows_vista_enterprise_with_service_pack_1_x64_dvd_x14-55934.iso and burned it to a DVD. Then I ran SETUP.EXE on a 64-bit Vista system. The installation ran as an UPGRADE for hours. Literally hours. When I awakened in the morning, the computer was stalled in the cleanup phase of installation. I power cycled the computer. Vista decided the Upgrade was a failure and reverted to the state before the Upgrade started. I see no reason for this behavior.
