I'm trying to follow the instructions in the WAIK to add a language pack to WINPE (and are failing with an error). I believe this is becuase I'm using the language pack for the operating system not Windows PE so a couple of questions:
1. Is there a specific Language Pack for WindowsPE (2.0)?
2. Where does one get these WINPE specific lanaguage packs from?
I just updated my copy of Vista Ultimate to SP2 (RTM). I noticed that after running Windows Update, the Language Packs that were once there have dissapeared. Is this normal?
View 8 Replies View RelatedMicrosoft has released new Language Interface Packs for Windows Vista. The LIPs can be applied to all Vista editions as long as the parent language is supported. These language packs are not Ultimate extras. Some restrictions apply to Vista Starter. Also, new LIPs have been released for the Office 2007 products.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI began the installation of vista sp2 and received a pop up box instructing me that I had unsupported languages installed. I go to control panel: regional and language options -keyboard and languages-install/uninstall languages remove languages Currently, there are 17 languages (besides my default, English)that need to be uninstalled. I've attempted to uninstall them at once and vista processes each language and says that it fails on all but one language. If I uninstall them individually each language takes the hour and 1/2 to uninstall and I cannot afford to sit with it while it does each one. Can this be done via command line or by script. IF it can, what would the commands be?

Well, when I do try to install it, it just ends up failing with error code 80070103 (Unknown error). Is this update necessary for regular use or do I need it, despite it being labeled optional. Oh, and why does it fail continually?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently received a response (in this forum) stating that it is possible
to download Windows Vista Service Packs 1 and 2 and have them available for
use by burning them to a CD. Sound great to me but I really need some
detailed help on how to do this. If I should be posting this to another
newsgroup, I would like to know which one.
(I amusing Windows Vista Home Premium.)
I am presently using Windows Vista Home Premium and am concerned about Microsoft support in the coming months. Should it be necessary in the future for me to do a complete disc recovery will the support be discontinued? In the past, I have been able to do such a recovery using the installation disc that came with my Dell Computer and later I received the Service Packs as an upgrade. If it becomes advantageous to do a complete recovery, will I be out of luck without the Service Packs immediately available?

It was working fine before I installed service pack 2 and now I have no sound and your stupid fix program did nothing but waste more of my time. Why did it mess my sound up, and is there anyway to fix this now?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just reinstalled my Windows Vista Home Premium, and went through the ordeal of updating (almost 100 updates last night). When I click on Windows Update now it says that Vista is up to date. But I don't see any indication that any service packs have been installed. By the way, how many service packs are there for Vista, and do they have to be installed sequentially: that you, you must install SP1 first, then SP2, etc.? how to determine if the service pack(s) has been installed, and 2) how many service packs are there so far.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm going to reinstall Vista 64-bit Home Premium. Should I install both the service packs first, -and then- the security updates and miscellaneous thingies? Or should I install all the security and miscellaneous thingies first, -and then- SP1 and then SP2 after that?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSometimes, I hear noises coming from it, not just the normal spinning of the disk, but it kinda sounds like your repetitively tapping your keys on a keyboard.Or a laptop parking it's head.I have google'd it, and some of the other clues are random BSODS.
I can sometimes reproduce the sound, when I click on something that needs usage of the HDD.My the send and receive times haven't been changed since I got the computer.
The drive is a "640GB SATA 7200RPM" "Western Digital Caviar Blue". Are these drives normally loud? It feels like it's running a little warm.If it is the heat, could I just plop a heatsink on it from an old video card?

Also, I am not sure if this is just normal HDD noise, because on my old computer, my case was always closed, and on my new one, I always have the side off when using it.
A Windows update could not be installed (Error Code 42D9):
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 3
So, I downloaded it from:
Download details: SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP3
I installed it, but the update was still showing and it still wanted to install the update - but I thought that's what I just did manually! Why did it still want to install it?
I hid the update from the Windows Update screen.
The next day, two updates came in - security updates for:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 and
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2
The update for Service Pack 3 installed successfully but the update for Service Pack 2 failed (Error Code 733F).
I hid the Service Pack 2 update, but it keeps coming back!
What am I supposed to do?
Can download Vista Home Prem Service Pack1, but after an hour plus of installing, it fails... I had a guy from MS's online chat-room taking control of my PC for two hours and he still didnt get it installed. I read the forums here, and followed some instrictions emailed by another MS tech helper... which then l;ead me into hours more messing around because they said I had to rename a file, but Vista says I don't have permission (so I then spent another two hours following various "take ownership" instructions, and that didnt work, so I rebooted into safe mode and did it again and I still can't rename the file, so can't complete the instructions...

I am using Win XP Pro and just recently my computer was hit by a power surge.killed the power supply.I have recently replaced it with an OCZ 500Watt supply and its up again. But ever since then, its been running a little strange. When I open up my computer,and browse through a couple folders,explorer.exe "encounters a problem" and restarts itself. The computer was running totally fine before this power surge.. its my everyday web design computer so I'm on it almost 24/7.It seems to possibly happen when I copy/paste files. Besides this,it seems like the HD "thinks" a lot more than it used to.I'm kind of leaning towards the fact that my new power supply fan is a lot quieter,if not silent,compared to my other one.. so I hear the HD more than I used to.I HAVE run a memory test on both 1GB DDR2 sticks AND a Seagate HD test on my two maxtor hard drives. Everything passed with flying colors.

My computer has been SUPER SLOW for the past few days, I've restarted it, turned off bloatware processes, and still no luck... It will be a complete system lock up, where the whole computer will stop responding for at most 30 seconds, then if I click while it's locked up, nothing will happen. Then when the computer comes out of the freeze, I'll hear the computer beeping, like the type of beeps from the bios, not from the OS.
Also, when the computer does this, the Hard Drive light will be constantly on, it'll try to read or write for a few seconds then stop, and repeat the process. And then it'll start to do its crap and the computer won't be locked up. One last thing... While typing this, my computer was locking up, and I'd still type, and nothing would appear on the screen, until the computer started to respond again.
Problem 1) one of my HDD's are failing. The noise it's been making ie clicking, whirring has been steadily getting worse. The problem here is that I can't tell which one of my three drives is the culprit.
Problem 2) Blank monitor. I first noticed this little doozy a couple of weeks ago when I removed a second monitor. Upon restart, the original monitor stayed in power save mode while the PC kept booting up as normal. That too has slowly become worse. It now requires me to kill the power and keep restarting until it turns on. It's not the monitor, because it works fine with other devices.
Problem 3) Freezing. This is where I'm a little stumped as to who the culprit is. Ocassionaly the PC just freezes, requiring a hard reset. Sometimes after a hard reset, that's when the monitor issue happens......
i have all these temp files in the temp folder and they keep appearing and multiplying. The first time i found them the folder was near 8gb and i deleted all of them no problem. Now they are back again and it's getting close to 4gb but i can't delete them this time.
I couldn't find anything on google. The only two things that came up was something to do with some Offline Explorer Pro program and the other one was that some guys hard drive was failing. One of my drive did recently fail on me but it's not in the computer anymore.
I have WinRar, when I try to extract .exe files it gives me an error saying "! Cannot execute". Now before you say it is Winrar's fault you are wrong. An admin said that 7-Zip is what I should be using. But, guess what happens when I use 7-Zip? Another error. Let me address this one: "could not find this item" When I extract. Now, is Vista blocking this in some sort of way?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI started experiencing glitch graphics that kinda looked like someone had splashed paint all over my screen... I tried driver updates and the usual (virus malware scans ect) but no difference was made. So I tried a fresh install but this still seemed to make no difference. when I got this graphics glitch it wasn't just the graphics that went wrong since it seemed to also hang windows, forcing a manual reboot but with the same only to happen again on the next cold or warm boot. It did puzzle me since it seemed only to happen with anything graphical i.e windows or the Bios splash screen but did not seem to glitch out on Bios boot text or even through the windows install screens....
I was quite stuck to as what the cause was, although I had the feeling my graphics card was failing. I didn't have a spare to test and it was a late Saturday evening and had to wait until Monday morning for the stores to open..... (thank goodness i had my old Pentium 4 in the cupboard ) Well Monday morning arrived and with the frustration of having used my old P4 with its ultra slowness and block graphics from its old AGP ATI 9200SE I was very eager to dash off to the shops So I headed off to the local PC repair shop armed with my trusty iPhone loaded with the pictures shown below to ask for their professional advice and low and behold it was confirmed..... my poor BFG 9800GX2 was on its death bed (tip always follow warranties, register and keep your receipts) Now armed with my new and confirmed information I was happy enough to splash out on a new graphics card..... back home i fitted my nice new shiny Gigabyte 9800GT Silent Cell GV-N98TSL-1GI - GIGABYTE Product - Graphics Accelerator - Overview and as expected my PC was back up and running once again
I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 Intregated, and when I ran updates I failed at installing one update; 'KB938371'. I did some searching, and it seems this is only for those who wants to install SP1 via the Windows Update Service? If thats the case, why does it show? And if that is not the case, why doesnt it install? I've tried to reboot, then installing only that update. Downloading the update and executing, downloaded -> rebooted -> installing.
