Using Windows Virtual Machine on Windows 7 Ultimate

I downloaded Windows Virtual Machine (Windows6.1-KB958559-x86-RefreshPkg.msu) for my machine running 32 bit Windows 7 Ultimate.
When I try to install, I get the message: The update is not applicable to your computer
I have enabled virtual machines in my BIOS and successfully installed Windows XP Virtual Machine
What I want to do is create another Virtual Machine but when I open Windows Virtual PC
there is no option Virtual Machines menu item to select to create a virtual machine

Cool, thanks. How do I find Ben Armstrong's
virtualization Blog? When I do, how to I find the appropriate article?

    I thought that at least some version of OSX could not be VM in Mavericks, but if you say it is allowed so be it.
    There are some people who dispute the details of what "the software" means in the license. From my point of view, I have a license to run all of those versions each license explicity says I can use a VM. I don't think it is illegal or even unseemly. The only version restriction I know of that the new VM policy only applies to Lion or greater. 10.6 could only be run on a VM if you had the expensive server version. The licenses do explicity list the acceptable uses and that includes OS X Server, software development, and non-commercial use. They don't want people selling online access to OS X, that's all.
    I do not VM Windows on my MBP because I have no need.
    Me neither. I used to though. Funny how a Mac was the most critical tool in debugging web sites on various versions of IE
    I don't even run OS X in a VM anyway. It does work but it is quite resource intensive. Maybe if I had one of those new Mac Pros...

  • Flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

    flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

    I have had the same problem for WEEKS and I cannot access any sites that use Flash. Flash has been installed on this computer since I bought it in 2012. I have allowed auto updates but for weeks the updates never get past Step 2 - is this because I do NOT want the Google Tool bar? I use NO tool bars as there is only 6 inches of vertical screen space. Is this because I uncheck wanting Chrome as a default browser?  It is already installed, I just don't use it.  I came to this site and ran the check is it installed and the system says it is either not installed or not enabled. Version 14 just downloaded about 30 minutes ago - but did not progress to Step 3 although a pop up screen came up with a finish button, which I clicked. WHAT is the problem and how do I fix it?  If this were just a compatibility bug between IE11 and Adobe they have had plenty of time to fix it.

  • Almost 100% of the time, when I move the Firefox window left or right, the content stays fixed on my screen -- using Windows 7 Ultimate -- how do I fix so that

    How do I fix it so that the content moves WITH the frame as it is moved left or right. Works O.K. in the up or down direction. If the frame has been moved to the right, leaving the content fixed, the "buttons" do not work until the frame is manually moved back to the left side of the screen. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate (x64 bit) with a 1920 x 1200 LCD display in the PORTRAIT orientation, and Firefox version 13.0.1. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or Chrome.

    Hmmm, could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

  • How to install ios 5 using windows 7 ultimate?

    how to install ios 5 on my iphone 4 useing windows 7 ultimate?

    I don't understand what you're asking. iOS 5.1 is the latest version of iOS that exists. If you have iOS 5.1 on your iPhone now and are trying to go back to an earlier version of iOS, that's not supported.
    If that's not what you mean, then you need to explain more clearly what it is you are trying to accomplish.

  • Im using Windows 7 Ultimate, Cannot Change Windows Update Settings

    Im using Windows 7 Ultimate, and I've been encountering difficulties in Windows Updates Settings. I want to change my settings on Windows Updates so I can install important software from the Internet. But the problem is it prompts this message "SOME SETTINGS
    ARE MANAGED BY YOUR SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR" as well as "NEVER CHECK FOR UPDATES(NOT RECOMMENDED). Please help me to fix this problem... It is really important to me... I hope you can resolve this technical issue.. Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Before going any further, I would like to verify if your pc is in a domain.
    If your computer is part of a domain,  this feature may be disable via GPO by your system administrator. You may need to contact it with your IT department.
    If it is not in a domain but the issue appears, please make sure you are logging on with system administrator account. In addition, if any security program
    is installed, please temporarily disable it.
    Meanwhile, please check the GPO settings on your PC:
    1. Click Start, type “gpedit.msc” and press enter.
    2. Navigate to Computer Configuration-> Administrative Templates ->
    Windows Component -> Windows Update. Make sure the states of all setting are Not Configured.
    3. Navigate to Computer Configuration-> Administrative Templates->
    System-> Internet Communication Management-> Internet Communication settings. Make sure the state of “Turn off access to all Windows Update features” is Not Configured.
    Hope it helps.

    Hello:
    I have win7 Professional, have same problem as in this link. I have made those change as mentioned. But, still my computer's windows update setting is not allowing me to change. It is grayed out, and set at "Check for updates but let me choose whether
    to download and install them".
    I am its administrator, it is in a workgroup, but it was put in by 'Best Buy Geeks'. I am able to use gpedit.msc, regedit, and also can run cmd as administrator.
    I want to change it. Any suggestion, please!

  • Hello once again.. i have formatted my external Hard drive it using exFAT, now my windows cant detect my device, can u plzz help me the whole purpose is getting ruined, i use Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

    hello once again.. i have formatted my external Hard drive it using exFAT, now my windows cant detect my device, can u plzz help me the whole purpose is getting ruined, i use Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

    This is a problem with the Mac OS X implementation of exFAT. I've had the same problem.
    Best is to use a Windows box to format the drive exFAT. Then it can be read by both Windows and Mac OS.
    But aren't Macs supposed to "Just Work"? Not in this case.

  • Upload a app in Apple Store using a virtual-machine

    For upload an app in Apple Store I need to generate a certificate, right? I'd like to know if this certificate can be generate through a Windows using a virtual machine with iOS or I only can do this using a Mac. And if is only using a Mac, every actualization I need this or I can upload new versions through my Windows?

    A real Mac is required.

  • I would like to use a virtual machine as a refernce computer during capture and depoly

    Hello all
    I can't seem to find a good step by step on using a virtual machine as a refernce computer for the capture and depoly part of OSD. Does anyone have a link that has helped them?
    Thanks,

    It is pretty straight forward, same way you would do a B&C on a physical. Only added benefit is you don't have a bunch of garbage drivers preloaded into the OS.
    I can give you a high level type of approach:
    Create your B&C task sequence inside of SCCM
    Advertise to your unknown computers collection
    Using your Virtualization software, provision your VM with standard hardware. Nothing special
    PXE boot your VM into the SCCM OSD
    Choose your advertised B&C task sequence
    Once complete, add your newly captured WIM to the Operating System Images node in SCCM
    Create a Deploy Task Sequence
    Advertise that to your unknown computer collection
    PXE boot one of your physical boxes and test the new task sequence to ensure the new image works/looks properly
    Please note: Step 9 may take some additional configuration of boot drivers in order to work depending on your hardware you are trying to deploy to
    It's hard to get any more in depth on a walkthrough with that process unless you wanted to start getting hardware/software specific. If you have questions along the way about specifics we can always help with that as well

  • HT4759 I am using Windows 7 Ultimate OS which is a upgarde from Vista on my laptop with Microsoft Office 2003. I am trying to use ICloud with an IPhone 5 and IPad mini to stream photos but can't do this with my laptop or devices using my Three network. Wh

    Can i use my laptop which is running Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade from Vista to stream photos using ICloud. The outlook programme used is 2003 and i my devices are IPad mini and IPhone 5. My problem is that i able to drag pictures into ICloud for it to send to my devices but nothing happens. Why?
    I am grateful for any advice.

    A hard drive if it has failed will sometimes allow you to boot into windows but may not work completely (Eg: In a scenario, where system partition ;where windows is installed works fine but logical partition of hard drive has gone bad).
    On certain conditions, if the hard drive is on verge of failure may/may not respond completely. I would suggest you to run a diagnostics using Seagate Seatools which works on any hard drive irrespective of manufacturer to actually confirm if your hard drive has failed.
    Also, any hard drive can fail in spite of it been 1yr old or 1day old as its all manufactured in bulk and most of it comes from China

  • I am using Windows 7 Ultimate - when I go on Firefox, all of the copy is very small. However, the copy is normal size on Windows Explorer. How do I fix this?

    I have a new computer running Windows 7 Ultimate. When I go on-line with Firefox, the copy is very, very small. However, when I go on Explorer, the copy is large and fills my display. How can I remedy this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • HT6154 Just tried to install the new update to my iPhone 5S and now it is stuck trying to communicate with iTunes and will not be recognized ny the laptop. iPhone screen shows a cable and the iTunes logo. Using Windows 7 Ultimate. How do I reset this to f

    Help!!!
    I now have a brick for a phone. Just tried to update to 7.1.1 using iTunes and it wipred out the operating system OK but now will not communicate with iTunes or the laptop. I reloaded iTunes and still no luck. If I press and hold the power and home buttons it inly comes up to the same screen showing the lightning cable pointing to iTunes logo. How can I get this running again? Even a factory reset to start would help if possible then I can do a restore. Right now it is worthless.

    Hello HarbourStables,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5s.  I would be concerned too if my iPhone was stuck in recovery mode and not recognized in iTunes so that you can restore it.
    I recommend the following article for the issue you described and specifically this step:
    5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
