Update - 64 Home Premium, Service Pack 2
Dec 1, 2009I have the Windows Automatic Update feature turned off. Every couple of weeks I manually update and install only critical and what I deem as necessary for my machine updates. Everything went fine the end of October, updates successfully installed. I also installed the English language pack as my OS was in German. I don't think the language pack has anything to do with the problems I'm about to describe. In early November I went to do a manual update and got this screen:

Use The Home Premium Edition That Came With The HP Computer
May 20, 2009I have an HP Pavilion PC with Vista Home Premium installed on it. The Motherboard went bad just out of warranty so I purchased a new Gigabyte Motherboard with an almost identical chipset as the old. However it is different enough that after a system restore, Vista hangs about halfway and says to call HP support as the there has been a hardware change (Code Purple). HP did not include a Vista CD Install disk, so I have to use the HP system restore image on the hidden partition.
I Hit F6 and tried safe mode, and all other options I see on the menu but evidently the Motherboard are different enough that the standard Evidently the HP Restore Image does not provide generic drivers for the new MB so the system hangs at just before it get to the login screen. Is there any way to make this work? If not will HP allow me to get a copy of Vista Home Premium , I have the Product code and all, and I am the legal registered owner. Hope there is a workaround. PS: I do have a copy of a Vista Business CD Install disk I could use, but I want to use the Home premium edition that came with the HP computer.
Running A 2nd OS With Home Edition (Windows 98?)
May 9, 2008I've lost a magazine I had that talked of having dual OS's. I'd liketo put Windows 98 on my Toshiba laptop if it can be done.

Book Home Edition: Cannot Access
Mar 23, 2008I bought a brand new WD My Book Home Edition 500GB external hard drive yesterday. Vista will not recongize it as a drive on the computer. The computer sees that it is connected (in device manager and the "ding-dong" you hear when you add a new device). I hooked it up with the Firewire and the USB, with the same result. The drive is supposedly Vista compatible. I downloaded the firewire drivers from WD. Since I cannot access it as a drive, I cannot get to the setup.exe needed to use the drive.

View 4 Replies View RelatedCustomize Backup With Home Premium Edition?
May 18, 2008I am using Windows Vista Home Premium and am encountering a problem using Microsoft's own Automatic Backup. I have been using running backups weekly now for many months with no problems. Except for the initial full backup, this weekly backup has only taken approx. 20-30% of a DVD. However, since I have fully installed "The Orange Box," my weekly backup now takes 2 full DVD's.
Even though, backup does NOT backup any temp files & does NOT back up programs, I am forced to do such a big backup because this gaming software does constant updates whenever I go online. I don't want or need to backup these game settings and updates, but I can't see any way to tell my backup software to ignore these files. The only solution I have for now is to disable automatic backups.
Home Network With Windows Millennium Edition
Mar 23, 2008I am adding a new PC with Windows Vista to a home network via ethernet hub consisting of 2 other PC's, one using XP, one using Windows Millennium Edition. Access (sharing) with Vista & XP systems is working perfectly (in both directions). Access from Vista to ME is working. Access from ME to Vista is almost working. From the ME PC I can find the Vista PC in the network.
Public sharing on the Vista PC is is turned on, and Password protected sharing is turned off, but when I attempt to access Vista PC from the Windows Millennium PC, I get the window "ENTER NETWORK PASSWORD". I've tried using Admin & various user passwords from both PC's but all are returned as invalid.

VPN ACCESS And Service Pack 1
May 3, 2008I had a working VPN connection with Windows Vista, my computer encountered an error and the resolution was to upgrade to Service Pack 1. I did and now my VPN connection does not work. I can bring a laptop home from work (Windows XP) and it will connect. Anyone have any ideas? I have gone into the properties to make sure the settings did not get changed.
