Installing xp instead of vista

i have vista home premium 2007...and would like to change it to xp, it is easier woking with it for me
is there free exchange installation ....

Windows XP support has ended on 8 April 2014
it is true that you can keep using your PC with Windows XP after support ends, however , it will become five times more vulnerable to security risks and viruses, which means you could get hacked and have your personal information stolen. also finding
drivers will be a real pain.
Windows Vista support will end on April 11, 2017 ( Service Pack 2 ) , I would totally recommend that you stay on Vista or upgrade to Windows 7 or even 8.1.
Hope that helps.

I would like to install xp on my notebook instead of vista

Hi communitiy,
I would like to install Xp instead of vista on my 3000 n200 Type 0769. I got already the metioned driver for the SATA disk to be recognized. Because XP can't see me hard disk.
I went through the Xp installation until you have to push PF6 to install additonal drivers. But I do not have a diskette drive. And the system does not recognize anything else... i tried an USB-Stick, an USB hard-drive and a CD Rom with the driver on it. The system didn't find the devices and the driver at all. It is extraced and definetily there on all of this devices...
any idea how to install xp on the notebook?
Thanks
Elke

Bootcamp stopped supporting XP since 2011 because it's an old and vulnerable Operating System, and because it doesn't support the latest mac hardware.
To install XP, you'll need to run a virtualization software such as Parallels Desktop (http://www.parallels.com/fr/products/desktop/) or VMWare Fusion (http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/features)

How to install windows xp over vista on a toshiba satellite A200 1YO

How to install raid/scsi drivers and get rid of vista for good
what you will need
â?¢ 1 USB external floppy drive
â?¢ 2 floppy disks
â?¢ 1 set of drivers for the hard drive you have in the computer
â?¢ a legal copy of windows xp pro
WHAT TO DO WITH THE FLOPPY DISKS
COPY THE DRIVERS DONT CUT AND PASTE THEM
â?¢ get DISK 1 and place the drivers required onto the disk as they are without any folders
â?¢ get DISK 2 and make a folder called $OEM$ and within that folder make another called TEXTMODE then within that folder insert the drivers that you have in disk 1
Installing the drivers and windows xp pro
â?¢ when windows asks you to press F6 to install raid drivers press F6
â?¢ then enter DISK1 into the floppy drive
â?¢ when it prompts you to press "s" to install...install the raid and storage controllers
â?¢ press "s" again and press enter on the same raid driver you just told windows to use
â?¢ windows will then say that it already has drivers for the raid controller
â?¢ press the appropriate key to tell windows you want it to use the floppy drivers instead of windows own
â?¢ after the drivers load remove the floppy disk
â?¢ wait until windows asks for the drivers again and insert DISK 2
â?¢ and windows will install at long last vista is GONE you will need the drivers for any hardware your computer system but they should be easy to get from the manufacturers web site
I have used this method and it worked with a Toshiba satellite a200 1yo laptop with no problems
PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS ON HOW YOU GOT ON TO LET OTHERS KNOW THAT THIS METHOD WORKS THANKS

Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit?

Why can't I install Itunes on windows vista 64 bit? I have removed all apple software and repeated the reinstall many times but it fails. I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.

I get this complicated error mesage and then the installer rolls back and fails.
I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message:

Trying to install itunes on windows vista and get the following error message: An error occurred during the installation of assembly "Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKey Token="1fc8b3b9a1e3b",process orArchitecture="x86"". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80070424.

A broken Windows Modules Installer then. It's a bit of an involved fix getting past it, but we've had success here with it in the past.
First, I'd strongly suggest setting up a system restore point.
Now try the Scenario III treatment from the following document:
Windows Update Error 80070424 in Vista
Head back into Windows Update and attempt to get updates again. If they still fail, this time with an 8000FFFF error code, try the following Microsoft document:
Windows Update error 8000FFFF
If you get Windows Updates flowing again, stock up on any you're behind on (restarting the PC when requested to do so). This may take some time and may have to be done in several batches, depending on how far you've fallen behind. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
After the updates have been installed, restart the PC one more time (in order to ensure that any pending installs requiring a restart have been resolved).
Now try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the 0x80070424 this time?

Can't Install Itunes 8.2 Vista 32 bit

I have used Itunes for the past two yrs on this machine with no problems till this recent version of itunes was released. I have had nothing but problems trying to install. Running windows Vista Home...I keep reaching a point in the install and I get an error message that reads "The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file: *C: \Program Files\ipod\bin\ipodService.Resources\res.lproj\iPodSerceLocalized.dll." This is my home computer, I am the only user ID, so I am the admin. To trouble shoot I have installed all microsoft updates, uninstalled all Itunes and apple software, made sure all firewall software has been turned off, and no luck. I have even tried going into programs and deleting the Itunes folder after the uninstall and I get another message saying "You need permission to perform this action". Contacted apple for support and other than suggesting I uninstal Itunes, then reinstall, they were no help and directed me to microsoft. Microsoft has pushed back and said "Itunes is 3rd party software and you must get help from apple". I'm stuck....can anyone help????

All I can say is make sure you are the administrator and if not right-click on the installation program and click "Run as Administrator", and delete all traces of iTunes off the computer, i.e. delete the folder C:\Program Files\ipod as you say. Make sure it is the latest version of iTunes and is for Windows Vista (not XP). Another thing to point out is to make sure your Computer is compatible with iTunes 8.2 (perhaps try installing iTunes 8.0/8.1 by searching for the link in Google).
If you have done all of that and it still does not install then I do not know what is wrong. As iTunes is one of the many applications i use 24/7 (pretty much) and I use it all the time, I would try installing it on a similar Windows Machine with a similar configuration and it works, I would reinstall Windows on your personal computer. If not, take the case further as I cannot think of anything else that could be wrong, so long as you have not edited the installation program or anything Good luck.

In August installed PE12 on Windows Vista with incorrect Sharing Preference for Email Client. Shows default Adobe Email Service How do I change it to Windows Mail?

Had PE6 previously to installing PE12 on Windows Vista. PE 12 installation went OK except for the Sharing Preference for the Email Client. Existing PE12 client is the default Adobe email service not the correct Windows Mail for Vista. How do I make this change..

Hi,
I think that for PSE 12, you may need to switch to Windows Live Mail
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=29224
You may find that you then also need the following fix.
Freeze or error “There is no email program” | Share via email | Elements Organizer | Windows 7
I think that the problem is that the new versions of PSE do not know where to look for the mail client.

PDF Thumbnails disapear after installed CS3 on XP-Vista

here is the problem, we have adobe reader on all our computer in the company, we are a printing company so PDF is the file of choice in our workflow. we have CS-CS3 installed on XP,Vista and 2003(automation server)
Everyone who has only Reader installed can see thumbnails in explorer XP and Vista of the PDF.
Problem is in the Prepress dept where CS3 is installed, As soon as CS3 gets installed on XP or Vista the Thumbnails stop working. (never worked on the mac osX but not an issue 3rd party software fixed that)
Why? if they worked before CS3 when only reader was installed..
Did Adobe disable PDF thumbnails as soon as you install the Creative Suite. Is this an Issue with just my company? lol
This is really a user complaint I have to deal with every day from employees in Prepress. "Why Can't I see a preview of the file in explorer before I open them"
I hear that it was because Psicon.dll and aiicon.dll were taken out due to problems... but why does it work with only reader installed which doesn't use those?
any ideas? I think If I keep hearing them complain I'll make em all use Scribus and inkscape for a week. hehe.

The thumbnails on my vista system are also not showing properly. It is very strange because I do have a SINGLE sole thumbnail of a pdf file displaying properly but the rest of my pdf files are all generic red acrobat icon. I am determined to get to the bottom of this as I have tons of ebooks and pdf files that I need to view in thumbnail format.
The roxio forum were also talking about loosing thumbnails in vista's explorer. The techs there claim its a vista problem and will wait till MS addresses the issues. However, I am not completely convinced.
The fact that we seen it work partially with some systems and the fact that I can generate a single thumbnail tells me there is more to it than meets the eye.
I suspect a registry tweak will solve all the problems.
Here's what I found so far.
On my XP system the thumbs works perfectly.
In the taskmanager I noticed that there is an auxiliary component
to acrobat that runs along side with the main executable;
"AcroRd32Info.exe" this file is what causes explorer to generate the thumbnails and is triggered only when the mouse hovers over an acrobat file.
With Vista Biz, I noticed that in taskmanager the AcroRd32Info.exe is missing. When I attempt to manually run this file, it fails to run with no error message. So my next guess is that some service might be blocking the exe from running or got disable during some tweaking.
I have another system that is identical to mine and brand new. I will test further. If someone can verify if AcroRd32Info.exe runs in there vista taskmanager and see the thumbnails appears or not that would be great.
Thanks

Installing Airport Express on VISTA system

Have an Airport Express from 2005 that has been successfully installed and running without problems on an HP Laptop running Windows XP. Just got a new HP Laptop running VISTA. Have heard a lot of issues related to installing with VISTA. Can't imagine that the distribution CD from back in 2005 is the right place to begin. Apple store suggests that I just buy a new Airport Express but obviously I do not want to do that. Does anyone know the most efficient steps that will lead me to a successful installation of my old Airport Express on VISTA? Thanks in advance for any help.

The following worked for me.
Cancel any documents in the printer queue.
Open Control Panel > Printers and delete your AirPort Express Printer.
Open Control Panel\Programs > "Uninstall a program" and uninstall AirPort Utility.
Open Control Panel\Programs > "Uninstall a program" and uninstall Bonjour.
Turn off Windows Firewall. (Windows Firewall prevents Vista from printing to a USB printer connected to an AirPort Express. No amount of port-opening seems to be able to get around this. YMMV. See notes at bottom of post.)
Download ZoneAlarm Free Edition:
http://www.zonealarm.com/security/en-us/zonealarm-pc-security-free-firewall.htm
Install ZoneAlarm.
Open your web browser.
When ZoneAlarm pops up, check the "Remember this setting" option and click the "Allow" button to allow your web browser to access your local network and the Internet.
Download a fresh copy of AirPort Utility from:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/AirPortUtility_Setup_5_3_2_forWindows
Download a fresh copy of Bounjour for Windows from:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/BonjourforWindows
Change the wireless security properties of your computer and LAN to WPA2 Personal AES. Why this specific security setting? Because for some reason when you use AirPort Utility in Vista to restart your AirPort Express, it will automatically reset your Vista's Internet connection to WPA2 Personal AES security. (At least it did mine.) Do yourself a favor and setup your computer and LAN this way to begin with:
For the Linksys WRT54G router, browse to 192.168.1.1 and change the settings under Wireless > Wireless Security
In Vista, use Control Panel \ Network and Sharing Center \ "Connect to a Network" > (right-click on your wireless connection) > Properties
Connect directly to the AirPort Express using an ethernet cable.
Install AirPort Utility in Vista using your fresh copy of AirPortSetup.exe. Approve any software/firmware upgrades that it finds.
Open AirPort Utility.
When ZoneAlarm pops up, check the "Remember this setting" option and click the "Allow" button to allow AirPort Utility and any related services that it starts to access your local network and the Internet.
Use AirPort Utility to configure the AirPort Express to join your existing wireless network using WPA/WPA2 Personal AES security.
After configuring your AirPort Express, click on the "Manual Setup" button (if you haven't already) of AirPort Utility, then click on the tab labeled "AirPort Express" and edit the first text box so that it displays whatever you want to name your AirPort Express (for example, "XXXXX").
Directly underneath that textbox, the hostname of the AirPort Express should also appear. It should be the name of your AirPort Express plus ".local" (for example, "XXXXX.local"). If it doesn't appear, click on the edit button and add the name.
Remember this hostname for later.
Disconnect the ethernet cable connection between your computer and the AirPort Express.
Reconnect to your wireless network (if you haven't already).
Use Airport Utility to rescan for devices to verify that it can connect to the Airport Express over your existing wireless network.
Install Bonjour using your fresh copy of BonjourSetup.exe.
After installing Bonjour, if you don't see Bonjour Printer Wizard either on your desktop or in the Bonjour program directory, then Bonjour was not completely removed before it was installed. You must use Control Panel\Programs > "Uninstall a program" to completely uninstall Bonjour, then reinstall using BonjourSetup.exe.
Open Bonjour Printer Wizard
When ZoneAlarm pops up, check the "Remember this setting" option and click the "Allow" button to allow Bonjour Printer Wizard and any related services that it starts to access your network and the Internet.
Use Bonjour Printer Wizard to set up your network printer. If you want this to be your default printer, check the box in Bonjour Printer Wizard that offers this option.
Open Zone Alarm.
Add your AirPort Express hostname (for example, XXXXX.local) to Zone Alarm's Trusted Zone.
Double-check your Zone Alarm "Program Control > Programs" settings. The programs of concern should appear as:
Program---------------------------------------------Access--------Server
AirPort Base Station Agent.................V.......V.......V.......V
AirPort Utility.......................................V.......V.......?.......?
Bonjour Printer Wizard........................V.......V.......?.......?
Bonjour Service...................................V.......V.......V.......V
Host Process for Windows Services.......V.......V.......V.......X
Spooler Subsystem app.......................V.......V.......?.......?
Open Control Panel > Printers
Left-click once on your network printer to highlight it, then right-click on your network printer and choose "Run as administrator > Use Printer Offline".
Right-click on your network printer again, except this time choose "Run as administrator > Use Printer Online". This little "Offline/Online" trick should convince Vista that, "Yes, Vista, really, I would like to have access to my network printer even after I restart Windows."
Restart Windows.
Voila! You can print.
Celebrate by hooking up a pair of powered speakers or your stereo to the AirPort Express audio jack and streaming your favorite iTunes music wirelessly while printing documents at the same time.
If printing ever fails in the future for some reason (paper jam, power failure, etc.):
Fix the immediate problem.
Use Airport Utility to restart the Airport Express.
Cancel all print jobs in the queue.
Print.
Notes:
If for some reason Windows Firewall gets turned back on (aaaggghhhh!):
It'll freeze up your of your AirPort Express printer after the first job in the queue. In this case, you'll have to turn Windows Firewall off, restart the Airport Express, cancel all print jobs in the queue, delete your old AirPort Express printer from Control Panel > Printers, use Bonjour to create a new AirPort Express printer, and do that "Offline/Online" trick again.
* In retrospect, now that Zone Alarm has revealed the settings necessary to allow AirPort printing (and AirTunes) through a firewall, one should be able to just translate the firewall settings over to Windows Firewall or another firewall. (Of course, this raises the question of why one would still want to use Windows Firewall.)
:o)

Trying to install Acrobat on a Vista laptop, but can't find the installation icon in the Adobe Application Manager

Hi, trying to get Acrobat installed on my Vista laptop but can't seem to find an icon for it in the Adobe Application manager. I have a CC license and it installs fine on my Win7 but can't seem to figure out how to install it on my Vista laptop. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Normally if something does not appear in the download options it means the machine does not meet the tech specs for the product. In this case, Vista is not in the tech specs for Acrobat Pro XI if that is what you are trying to install. For whatever reason it skips from XP to Windows 7.
