May 7, 2010
so its an acer aspire running vista home premium 32 with no updates ever... its my step dads...i cant get into system restore. it wont update. it wont let me into anything even tho i have told it i am the administrator and it says i am... it still says i need to be an administrator. it wont let me into anything that might let me add or remove a program and i get this msg constantly about a badimage telling me that oledlg.dll is not valid or not compatible... i realize now it is a malware problem of some kind i didnt find it with nis or with malware bytes... i ran compufix. it also stalls out when downloading... it will get about 10% of what ever file i am getting then stall out... i attached the log.txt that i got when i ran compufix.... i realize this note is all over the place.... i am at my wits end here...
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 !

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!
I was editing some files in Linux and am now trying to view them in Windows Vista but am having some difficulty. In particular, there's one file named demo?.jpg. When I try to open the file, I can't. When I try to rename it, I get the following error: The file name you specified is not valid or too long. Specify a different name. Certainly going into Linux and renaming it is not a problem, but I'm curious - is there a way to deal with issues such as this in Windows?
We have a new computer that came with Vista 64bit. We have Word 03 docs that we can't open and receive this error message: .doc is not a valid win32 application. What can we do to fix this so we can access our old documents? We have some of the same problems when trying to access files from the net that may be in Word format.
Below is a list of software I have purchased, but am not using so I thought if anyone is interested in using any of the belowmentioned programs, send me a Private Message and I will provide you with my Serial/Activation Number/s.

This is not the same problem that was discussed in 2007--does not have to do with mail. I get the error "Could not locate a valid definitions file. Please go to the program options and click 'update definitions' to download a definitions file"
This message appears every time Vista starts. We think it has to do with the installation of a HP printer--a Photosmart C4140 which is not fully supported by Vista and won't completely install because of that. The original problem gave this error along with a message that Vista had recovered from a serious error and then would shut down in 1 minute--which it did. Continuously.
I uninstalled the printer and all was well. Funny thing is, the computer and printer were working up until maybe 5 days ago. Perhaps installing only the basic printer drivers for the printer would make this go away? The user says he has no need for scanning, so maybe that solution would work. What we would really like to know is what on earth does the error message mean. What definitions file? What program options?
I have Windows Vista. I have made a video, changed it to a WMV file and tried to load it into Windows Movie Maker so I can edit it, but this keeps coming up. *-Windows Movie Maker cannot use the audio file C:UsersPopsDesktopBlokart.wmv is in use by another program or does not contain valid audio data.-*
I am a new user of windows mail. I just got this new computer and windows vista is new. I have a mail message stuck in my outbox. How can I get it out. I can't delete, move or anything. It is a nuesance, because when I want to send something now, I have to respond to a message, one or more messages does not have a valid account. This now comes up every time I send mail. This stinks, I have a brand new computer, and I have a problem with my mail now!!!
I have vista business running on an asus laptop. I’ve been trying to connect my HTC Touch mobile phone with the laptop and have been having problem with Windows mobile centre (error msg “ This action is only valid for products that are currently installed). I attempted to run the Windows mobile handbook & keep getting the error "The getting started disc requires Adobe Flash player version 8.0 or later…". I have installed the latest version of flash (v10), have uninstalled it (via adobe’s recommended process), reinstalled, executed FlashUtil10b as administrator, checkd activex & plugin settings (as per adobe site settings), but to no avail. I have also tried to install the active synch (predecessor to Windows mobile) and again, the error msg regarding flash player 8.0 or later required.
i started up my computer, then i noticed that some of my programs were messed... I got this for window live messanger: msnmsgr.exe is not a valid win32 application and it ALSO did the same this for firefox.. this never happend before...I am useing vista home.. and i just bought this computer..
i downloaded itune setup from apple website 8.0.2.20 ( 32 mb). When i click to install on my PC ( Vista Home premium 32 bit) it says Not a valid window 32 application.
I've been trying to download Itunes to my laptop and the end results are always the same that it's "not a valid Win32 application." Now I made sure when I downloaded it that it was for a pc not mac. And I also downloaded it 3 different times just in case something went wrong with the installing process.
every time i send emails thru microsoft i get that smtp is not a valid server, i use yahoo.com, and my account i have is yahoo.com. Yahoo states that smtp is a connection which confuses me, what server do i need?
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.
since i installled Vista I started to have problems running Word2000 from VBA Access. In any case I noted a difference between Winword2000 and other Office programs: on the normal launch Word shows a window for 'user account control', Cancel, Allow (or something like that, mine is not in english). Running Excel, powerpoint and other, not.
I need to run Word2000 from a vba macro in Access2000: no problem with XP or Win2000. If i call a 'new Word.Application' or 'Shell("c:...winword.exe')' i have the error: Function call or argument not valid or Automation Error To execute the requested operation is needed a higher rights.
If i change for 'calc' or 'notepad' there are no problems. If I put Word in other folder (ex. c: mpwinword.exe) Shell() is able to run it but hen i need to get the variable to control the program: if I call GetObject(,"Word.Application") I get l'error 13.
I keep getting these spam emails from random valid email addresses telling me I have X amount of dollars waiting for me in a online casino. Every time i delete and block the emails address i get another from another email address generated. Its obviously spyware, I have run AVG and spybot and it hasnt fixed the problem. I cant adjust my spam filters cause sometimes theres important emails which get IDd as SPAM by accident. Is there anyway to fix this?
A new laptop comes with 4GB ram and I am given the option to select either Vista 32 bit or Vista 64bit OS. Is it recommended to go for 64bit vista to use tat extra 800mb ram or i should stick with 32bit vista for better compatibility?
I am trying to find an external hard disk drive that is fully compatible with Vista x64.
I purchased a Western Digital My Book Premium II drive and it doesn't work properly even though their web site states that is Vista compatible. I contacted them and they fairly ridiculed me for assuming that that meant it would be compatible with 64-bit Vista. I can still use the drive to actually copy files to but there is no 64-bit driver so the bundled software doesn't work and Vista keeps telling me that it needs to install a driver for this device.
I contacted Seagate about their FreeAgent Pro product and they claim it should work even though there is also no 64-bit driver for it. I don't trust that statement after my experience with the WD drive.
I just gave away my Dell printer because it was incompatible with Windows Vista, and i need a new printer ASAP. Please let me know which printers ($210.00 max) might be Vista-compatible. Specifically, I am searching for an all-in-one with scanning and perhaps duplex.
I just downloaded Men of War and I go to install it but it says it's not compatible. I go to compatibility mode and that doesn't work either. Turns out it's only compatible with xp sp3 and vista 32 bit. But I have read posts of people saying they are playing on vista x64, but they don't say how.
When I use the 64-bit IE it periodically asks if it can install flash. I go to do it and the adobe says they don't have flash compatible with 64-bit IE. Has anyone found a way around? I really want to use IE64 with a flash player. Adobe can't be the only game in town...i found an alternate pdf viewer called FoxitReader.
I am in the process of replacing my current PC (with Windows XP) for a new upgraded PC with Windows Vista. My concern is that all my old software in my current PC (with XP) may not be compatible with Windows Vista. But I am told Microsoft has come out with Vista SP1 that should take care of all compatibility. Is this true? Has anyone had any problem with Windows Compatibility in installing old software from XP into Vista?
