I am trying to install a program onto a laptop but I keep getting a message saying "cant on current operating system" even though I have already installed the same program on my desk top which is running windows 7 as well.
i try to look up instructions on how to install a program from flashdrive it is so confusing. I had scandisk on an old computer and also a super anti spyware from the same computer. I put the flashdrive in and copied it to the flashdrive. Now i need to know in easy steps how to put it on my laptop. I copied my pics from old computer this way but when I right click on the program i don't know what to do next. Do I just copy and paste it into the program files or what ? I am getting so frustrated because I am not that great using the computer this way.
i have a dell 1440 inspiron laptop it came with roxio creator DE 10.2 i uninstalled it i tried to reinstall it today several times but it says installing but the bar goes about halfway up then says rolling back then gives a message saying the wizard was interupted or something like that. This is really frustrating i mean this software came with my computer i would think it would reinstall no problem i am running windows vista home premium
Why do some programs which I download try to install to Program Files as is the norm, and others try to install to Program Files (x86), if they're all compatible with Win7 x64, and some are even specific to Win7 x64?Is there any harm in deleting the (x86) from the attempted destination folder when I download, so that I don't have two folders for my downloaded programs?
Windows 7 refused to install an old program that was probably intended for Win98, so I am downloading XP Mode, but Im not sure if I can install something from a CD onto a virtual PC, this is the first time I do this.
I have a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro 32 bit and all my software is installed and working well except for one. Following a problem with the initial install attempt, I'm trying to re-install LotusSuite 9.8.2 but the previous attempt seems to have resulted in some "Lotus" registry entries that now direct things to a non-existent "F" drive. When I try to re-install from the CD, it doesn't allow me the option of choosing the destination location. Instead, it automatically tries to install in this non-existent drive. I've opened RegEdit and searched and found many references to Lotus and to F:Lotus.
How can I edit the registry to get rid of the F:Lotus entries or change them to C: ? Or just get rid of all references to Lotus? BTW, this software works perfectly on my Win 7 laptop.
I know there are a couple threads on this, but I am having a lot more issues than others (or so i believe). Whenever I attempt to install iTunes, or any other programs, a window pops up telling about an error 2503, and then another window pops up telling me about an error 2502. Keep in mind, all the users on my computer have ownership of files (I'm pretty sure).
I'm unable to install my Epson Stylus Photo 785epx printer program onto Windows 7 (64-bit) which is connected to a wireless home network. It hangs up and gives an error message that it isn't compatible by the OS. It worked on my Windows XP desktop fine.Epson.com doesn't NOT list any downloads for Windows 64-bit for my printer model nor am I able to find any useful links helping me with this issue on that site so please, no directions to go to the Epson web site.
Alright, well I only saw this once before, but now it seems like every time I try to run a vintage 32-bit program it comes up.
Whether it's Cool Edit Pro, Halo (the Microsoft game), whatever. anything that uses the video card - this comes up.
In this case it's Windows Live Messenger 8.1, running in Windows 2000 compatibility, so that Microsoft lets me sign on without upgrading to their new crap they call a messenger. (That's not the point, though, if even one person tells me that the problem is that I didn't upgrade WLM I'm gonna ignore them... It works PERFECTLY on ALL the computers I've done it on, so that's NOT the issue!!)
Anyway, does anybody know what that error means and how to fix it? Google tells me that it's a DirectX9 DLL problem (Which is way outdated, right? Since DX11 is the one that comes with it)... I tried all the suggestions, from installing DX9 (which of course didn't work since it "detected" a newer version), to replacing the DLL with a fresh one.
I might try installing Windows 7 x64 in VMWare, then copy the DLL from *THAT*, but still... what's the problem? It worked fine and that error is just now coming up. I scanned for viruses last night with Malwarebytes, and it's clean.
"Program not responding" error is happening to me very often. Mostly on Firefox,or the game that im playing (Heroes of Newerth). It sometimes happens to me on Skype and MSN too.
I have a student licensed windows 7 professional edition and apparantle every time I shutdown my PC almost none of my settings are saved, by settings I mean my Photoshop interface settings, cache settings, my winamp settings, word custom settings, every setting that you do after you install a program, almost every program is back to it's original state just after installation, that is really weird and I am clueless,

I have some problems with some compatibily issues and i dont want to talk about them.
So, when i insert the WINXP installation disk i want to directly install the OS.But surprise, the text "Install Windows XP" is written in gray, so i cant select it.
After that, i rebooted my PC and waited for some message like: Strike any key to boot from cd..."" ,but no text appeared, and windows started normally.I googled some keywords like How to install windows xp on windows 7, but none of them helped me.Please tell me what to do in order to give up on windows 7 and to install XP.
Note:1 the installation disk is good, on other computers works.
2 i am a pretty advanced user, so dont tell me noobish things please.
3 if your really want to know why i am giving up on Windows 7 ask me.
i just recently started getting this message when trying to run an .exe game and i have tried fruitlessly to resolve this issue because i love the game
I'm trying to install a program that has an updated patch. When I go to install the update I get an error message saying "program name (x86)...you don't have permission to save in this location contact your administrator to obtain permission. How do I get around this block. I did go into the admin setting nad played around with them but that didn't do anything. This is my computer and this account is the only one on there and it says Richard (me) is the admin so I should be able to put stuff where ever the I want. I am so sick of Windows 7 this is the worst version of windows yet. Can't we go back to MS Dos.
I am hoping someone can help. I have 2 machines both running windows 7 64-bit with XP mode installed. On one, I have successfully loaded and run my program perfectly without a single hiccup but with the other it installs fine but will not open. All I get is a fatal errorE. The same install disc was used for both machines and I have checked to verify that all files are there.
There are a half dozen threads from the past several years addressing the same issue - none have a solution or explain what the cause is. This is the exact text of the error:
MS Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program: C:windowssystem32 vvsvc.exe
This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.Please contact the application's support team for more information. In safe mode the startup stops at ATiPcie.sys; search found similar black screen with mouse complaints The machine setup has worked fine for several months, and shutdown without any events last evening. This morning at startup the popup with a black screen appeared. I have tried all of the suggestions posted on the treads.Events: Attempted to install autocad2012sp1x64.exe but it did not install due to the version installed is Civil 3D 2012 not ACAD2012. Installed PublishDWGtoGE.zip without issues - a new icon appeared in my ACAD GUI but have not tried it yet Changed my clear temporary files at startup script from shutdown to startup, restarted several times and seemed to work fine Cleared several GB of temp files that ACAD C3D accumulates - this has been done several times without problems This machine is used as a CAD workstation and is not used for games, entertainment, social networking (besides help forum threads), or other common uses that attract viruses. The only web browsing is to read the news and email. Note that this machine has a PCI-E solid state harddrive in Raid 0 - occasionally it triggers a disk check at startup due what has been assumed a driver issue that results in a poor shutdown, it has not been anything more than annoying - one of the other threads had a similar SSD raid 0 setup. I removed the startup script and ran a checkdisk in case they were conflicting. I have access to the drive through a backup drive running the same OS; the specifics of the machine setup are documented here on a wiki page cee241:software:settings:tower [CIFE Wiki]
I was having issues with Photoshop 7 and attempting to reinstall it gives the error: "Setup requires a different version of windows. Check to make sure that you are running Setup on the Windows platform for which it is intended. Error 102"
I find nothing relevant in the Adobe forums, and perceive this as a Windows error.
I have reinstalled this once or twice before with no issues. We are running Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit which has been working on this as well as on previous OSs. The machine is up-to-date without viruses and I have run SFC/scannow, and a registry cleaner; issue persists. System Restore is not an option.
I keep getting this message when I try to open a program on Windows 7: "There is not enough free memory to run this program. Exit one or more programs, and try again".

Ive been trying to install Gears of War for a while now, ive changed the compatibility/ran as administrator, asked google for helps, but still cant get it to work.
The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.
