Should Get Option To Choose Installation Language?
Mar 23, 2008
When I start windows home premium on a new pc for the first time should i get an option to choose the installation language? I bought a pc in germany and the start up failed i got an error message in an endless loop i got it to start with the recovery disc but that has set it to German and i cant change it. Can anyone confirm or not that if the set up had run correctly i should have been offered the option to set up in English. if this is the case i can go back to the manufacturer and complain.

I am not sure what has happened but the following message appears when turning on my comp: Quote: Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1) Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer
2) Choose your language settings and then click Next
3) Click 'Repair your Computer'.
If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance. File: windowssystem32windload.exe. Status: 0xc000000e Info: the selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt. I have the disk but how do i boot from it? I am very worried i've broken my comp for good.

I need to choose between these 2 systems:
1.
comes with an Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2.6GHz dual core processor, 1GB of DDR2
RAM, and a 320GB SATA II hard drive
and Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
2.
comes with Pentium 4 CPU, 3.2 GHz, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, and a 320GB SATA II hard
drive and Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
The real difference is only the CPU and RAM size.

I'm trying to use a VPN connection and it works fine if I'm using my wired connection, however if I'm on my wireless network at home, the VPN connection does not work unless I disable the ethernet card.

I talked with Asus cause i wanted to buy a HD For my Notebook. So, they said it would work fine, but it would get too hot, and that i should buy a cool pad for my computer. Which Coolpad should i choose? I want one that is very powerful, and that works great to cool the computer.

I have a unused Audigy 2 ZS, and my mobo has Realtek ALC888 7.1 HD sound onboard...
Considering the following :
- I want to do Photostory3 and Windows Movie Maker stuff high quality
- I would still like to be able to play games like Ghost Recon, COD2 and Far Cry with surround sound.
- I want the best performance, and the least headaches...
Which one should I use, the Audigy 2 ZS (and alchemy for EAX support) or the onboard (will I still have non-EAX surround in older games, and will it use too much my CPU for video editing?)...

I have single user, home computer running Vista Home Premium (32 Bit). My e-mail usage level is fairly low. (About 15 - 20 per day.) Right now, I have two e-mail systems on my machine namely Windows Mail and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. I am looking for advice on which one to use. Windows Mail appears to be the simpler one and would satisfy my requirements but I do not wish to use it if it is likely to be discontinued in the near future.

I downloaded some new Mac fonts and I want to change the default font in Vista to one of them. I can't do that via Appearance>Advanced, because there's a limited variety of fonts to choose from.

This may be a Office 2007 question. I use Windows Fax & Scan and Outlook 2007. I am unable to choose a recipient from Outlook 2007 Contacts correctly to use in Windows Fax & Scan. When I click on the To: Button in Windows Fax & Scan I only get three columns shown. Name, Display Name and E-mail Address. If the intended recipient does not have an email adress their name does not appear. What am I setting up incorrectly. I can not see an option in Windows Fax & Scan. Is it a Outlook setting.

I've downloaded several stationaries from the Window's site. It's taken me forever to find where Vista downloaded them. Why can't I choose where the files are downloaded? It gave me no option to do this.

After having my computer crashing - for whatever reason - i took it in to have all important documents (work stuff) that i needed transfered to an external hard drive.
I was informed to re install Vista, and that all my information will be lost.
When i did this, i did not reformat the drive, so it saved all the other stuff in a folder titlled windows.old.
I respoke to the person who assisted me, and told him of the issue that i am having which is:
Choose operating system to start or press tab to select a tool ...

I know every one here has this default Vista (even XP) problem. The problem is that the folder customization / layout never stays the way you set it, even minutes later after closing/re-opening explorer. This is driving me insane. For example, in explorer under Computer I choose large icons. Close, re-open its back to list view instead. Sometimes other folders will somehow change views by themselves too. This is really annoying.

My "size" option appears to have gone missing, and I'm not sure why. I searched with google, as well as these forums, though I could find no answer to my problem. (Though that doesn't mean one hasn't been posted; my searching skills may just be crappy.) Regardless, has anyone had this, or a similar issue, occur? Or does anyone know how to add your own "details" to choose from so I can get it back manually? I saw this: Folder Size for Windows Explorer. I probably need something along those lines, but for the size option instead... Also, if I'm somehow just staring at the list and missing it even after scanning through each item, (Picture included to rule out/verify idiocy on my part.)

I have recently bought a new computer from acer with vista and it came with a posiblility to upgrade to win7 (http://www.acer.com/windows7upgrade), but i have a slight problem.
I need to specify which language vista is installed inn or it won't work, i figured it would be norwegian (as i am from norway), but allmost all the menus are in english as well as everything in the start menu ("Computer" instead of "Datamaskin" etc...).
I was wondering if there is an easy way to figure out which language the OS is installed in.

I live in Spain and bought my wife a laptop. She is having trouble with the language and wants to change it to English, I am a bit annoyed at having to buy an English copy of Vista. Especially after watching an MS promotion video of how they are working to cover the need of using multiple languages, why the step back in Vista then ? It is an Acer laptop and also has programs pre-loaded and a backup restore installed etc. If I buy the English vista, do I have to do a clean install to get English Vista on, or just load it as a repair, and will it need re-activating etc ? If it does need a clean install then I will lose everything that has been pre-installed and and will be an expensive experience.

I had seen a similar topic at this forum before, but I can't find it. I am looking for a way allowing me to type in Chinese in this keyboard. I looked up the Vista "help" section. I am supposed to download the Language Interface Pack (LIP) first. However, when I went to the MS web site and clicked on the map that said "Asia", Chinese language was NOT on the list. The Whole Asia continent! Go figure ! The method I saw before in this forum was very different than the
"help" section.

FIXED
Simply check that CTFMON.EXE boots at startup (for all users) Or go to start/run and type CTFMON.EXE then enter.
Use the following code (copy and paste to a .REG file) if you don't know how to add manually this executable to HKLM startup.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun]
"ctfmon"="CTFMON.EXE"

The installer states that I have the wrong language or wrong language packs installed. However, no language packs are installed that I can find, and installation itself is us english, albeitly with swedish regional settings.
When I stated that no language packs are installed, this is because no language packs are listed in the program list. It might have been installed as an update, but that list contains 79 updates with absolutely no details except KB numbers, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna lookup 79 KB articles manually to see if one of them is a language pack.
As language packs were so easily installed (as an option offerered thorugh windows update, and not as stand-alone installation like it was with XP and such, I just can't believe that MS don't support language packs more fluently than this)

After Vista and Office installation and update, I tried to EASY TRANSFER from my old laptop all data. It was not able to make the transfer because the old laptop (hp Presario) was running in other language (English XP)
There was no WARNING that once one language is selected it can not go back and select the other. There was no WARNING that to make the EASY TRANSFER Vista and XP must run in the same language. EASY TRANSFER is essential for my job (emails, addresses, favourites w passwords and many others) Please give me a solution. Otherwise I can not use it for the reason I have bought it.
