I got the laptop back, the one that I gave my sister 18 months ago when it was barely ever used. The problem is, it is password protected and I have forgotten the password. My sister is no longer with us. She has passed on. The password has eight characters. The Dell XPS1730 Dual Core laptop is running a Windows Vista with 2.6 GHz and dual graphic cards. Is there any way that I can access Windows? Since there are files that we wish to keep like photographs etc. I will be grateful for all the help I can get.

I tried wiping the hard drive with both XP and Vista on a single partition in order to load Windows Vista. I ended up with Windows Vista installed twice. How can I wipe the hard drive without losing all the programs and drivers?

I am running Windows Vista and I used it to sync my Pocket PC with Windows Mobile Version 5. But when I synchronize it with my PC, I am receiving error: Windows Mobile Device Center has stopped working and then it automatically closes my desktop. Anybody knows any reason for this?

Hi,

My home PC has Windows Vista the Home Premium version. I am having problems installing and running several software applications, more recently the Photo Deluxe. This OS restricts the setup of the installation wizards of the software and I am wondering what could be the problem, since I get the compatible versions. Whenever I try to run the setup the OS restricts and nothing displays. Please assist.

Hello everyone at TechyV!

Windows Vista won't install on my laptop…It has a DVD ROM (DVD Multi Recorder, CD Rewritable) which I used to read and run the installation CD. Halfway through the process it stalled and popped this error up. I'm told the problem might be my ROM. Does this affect the installation or not?

Thanks for clarification and I would appreciate solutions to this.

Thank you kindly.

Hello everyone,

The trouble I’m having is with the 3Ds Max 2009 32 bit.

The error message is displayed after running the application, and I’m unable to click anything.

The message goes like this:

Application Error

An error has occurred, and the application will now close.

No scene changes have occurred since you last save.

I’m using Windows Vista so I expect that the compatibility isn’t the problem. If there’s any other solution you have please post it here.

Windows Vista has been installed in my desktop. Now I want to delete Windows Vista and install Windows XP. But I am not able to complete the task, in the usual way (at first I insert an XP CD, then according to the instruction). It is just not being possible.

Please, write to me on how I can complete the task.

This is really annoying. I want to stop it. How can I turn Off this annoying beep?

Hi, I’m having a problem installing Windows Vista to my PC.

I am currently using Windows XP and when I’ve tried updating to Vista the next thing happens:

      “Install Windows

      Windows was unable to create a required installation folder.

      Error code: 0x80070008”

I don’t think the file is corrupted, but I’m not sure how to solve this so please, if you have any idea how to fix it post a comment.

Thanks.
