Blue Screen At The Installation On Vista 64 Bits
Mar 2, 2009When I boot my computer with Vista 64 , I always get a blue screen with the
following error message :
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage
to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your
computer. If the screen appears again, follow these steps :
Check to be sure you have adequate disk space. If a driveris identified in
the Stop message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for
drivers updates. Try changing video adapters.
Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updated. Disable BIOS memory
options such as catching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to
remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select
Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

Same thing with Windows 7. But, with Vista 32 bits DVD, no problem. I
suspect my DVD burner to be the problem, since it make the hell of a noise
at the startup with Vista 64 an Windows 7 DVD's.
Thank you.

Dec 23, 2007I am running Vista Ultimate 64bit and I was wondering what virtualisation software is there that will run on this so I can install other OSes to get some applications to work that will not run on Vista. These applications are only some very old games I like all I really need installed is Windows 98SE and Windows XP but I may use it to try out other operating systems as well.
I know of Virtual PC but it doesn't allow 64bit guest operating systems which at the moment isn't a problem but I may want to install one in the future, I don't really like the interface of VMWare and I tried Parallels but it gave an error that it won't install on a 64bit operating system. I was just wondering what others are there that people know of?

Home Premium: 32 Bit Version Vs. 64 Bit
Apr 1, 2009I have a laptop with the Vista Home Premium 32 bit version installed. I am
thinking of upgrading my desktop from Windows 2000 to the same platform, since I would prefer to keep these two computers as look-alikes. Some desktops (e.g., Dell) are now sold with the 64 bit version. I am told that the 32-bit version will read up to only 3 GB of RAM, whereas the 64-bit version will read up to 4 GB (?).
If I were to install the 64-bit version on my desktop, are there other complications that I might run into when I attempt to run programs/exchange data on both systems? I also run some DOS programs from an earlier century;

View 5 Replies View RelatedCouldn't Upgrade Windows Vista Home Premium, Couldn't Connect To The Internet
May 5, 2009I had windows XP pro and i bought windows vista home premium upgrade, when i went to install it it said that i couldn't upgrade it. So i followed directions on how to do a custom clean install, where you install vista without typing in the product key and without getting updates then you pick what OS you have and do the custom installation, then you install again (2nd time) and choose upgrade instead of custom and go through the process again.
The problem is after installing it the first time, I couldn't connect to the internet, so I couldn't install it a second time. I have an ASUS PQ5 PRo motherboard and when i start up there is this thing called express gate, in express gate I can use the internet but not when i enter Vista. When I put in the PQ5 Pro DVD vista says it can't open it. Also my XP PRO may have been 64bit, and now I am on Vista32 bit and the disck wont work.
I think the internet is a driver problem, if i go to the asus website on a diff computer and get the ASUS drivers put them on a USB and then open them on vista should this work? WHat drivers do I need? Just the LAN one? Also if the Asus DVD wouldnt start up will that mean that I wont be able to open the drivers on the flash drive too?

Aug 26, 2009I purchased a new PC in early 2007 that came with XP. A month or so later I received the Vista upgrade CD which I have never installed. I intend to buy Windows 7 when it becomes available and wish to minimize my system upgrade problems as much as possible. Based on my understanding I would have to do a complete harddrive erase to install Win 7 and then reinstall all my applications. If possible and practical I'd like to upgrade XP to Vista and then Vista to Windows 7. My question am I likely to have problems going from a current up to date version of XP to a 2+ year old version of Vista which would require many updates to bring up to the current level?.

Feb 23, 2010I apologize for the length of this diatribe. Here we go. I bought a new computer two years ago. It. came with Vista Home Premium 32 bit. I upgraded to Vista Ultimate 32 bit. No problem. I saved a full image of Ultimate to an external HD using Acronis. I did a clean install of Win 7 Beta when it was released. I decided to remove the Win 7 Beta and go back to Vista Ultimate using the Acronis Image. The Acronis image of Vista Ultimate destroyed my boot sector and I could not go back to the Vista Ultimate image so I did a repair using the Win 7 repair DVD I had made. That fixed the boot problem.......

Upgrade From Home Premium To Business?
May 17, 2008I know that upgrading from Home Premium versions to Business versions is not directly supported (I don't think it is, anyway). I have 10 licenses for Business and I wish to join a domain. Is there a way I can load Vista Business and apply my Business licenses to sort of "quasi-upgrade" my newly purchased machine which came with Home Premium to Vista Business? That is, other than a clean install (I'm trying not to have to track down all the drivers). There is no data on the machine now so I don't have to worry about data. I was thinking maybe a "repair" install or something? Or an "overwrite" install?

Mar 23, 2008Seems that a number of individuals have had issues with upgrading legitimate copies of Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate. Using the upgrade media provided, the upgrade seems to fail during the last few steps by indicating rather cryptically that a component could not be configured. There is no indiation as to which component didn't get configured.
Now, I do not understand why this should happen. I used the upgrade advisor which indicated to me that the recommended version of Vista was Ultimate and there were no hardware/software/driver issues identified. Why can't I just upgrade then? Why do I have to disable all drivers except for the video, keyboard, and mouse to get a good upgrade? All drivers are Vista certified - I have no hardware whatsoever that isn't certified with Vista and am assuming that this certified hardware comes with certified drivers.
I have been unsuccessful so far in updating my system. I would really love to see Microsoft take ownership here and supply us with an upgrade disk that does what it indicates on the box. I should not have this much difficulty upgrading my system. After all, Microsoft developed the upgrade system and is selling it to the general public. Just insert the disk, add the key, and click install. What could be easier?
Does anyone have any suggestions? I do not really want to go through the hassle of disabling all drivers - if that is required, then instructions should have been included with the update disk on how to do this. Will Microsoft change this and provide a cleaner install DVD. If not, can I get my money back? Should I upgrade to something else?

Oct 25, 2008I bought a new HP dv7-1175 yesterday and need to upgrade it to Ultimate from my July 2008 disk from my MSDN subscription (Vista with SP1 x64 and x86). When I put in my (valid) activation code is just says "An error has occurred" and to restart the installation. When I bypass the activation and choose the Ultimate x64 it disables the upgrade option. I do not want to do a fresh install because I know what a driver hassle people are having with that option and I am more of an XP experienced installer.
