Re: Windows Vista 64 Bits Iso
Nichole Wernett
As many people here, I'm having trouble restoring my laptop to the original settings. I have a Latitude D630 with 2GB RAM. Originally it came with Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bits English, but recently I decided to try Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, so I did a clean install removing the previous installation of Vista (C drive). However, as far as I remember, the RECOVERY partition (E drive) remained untouched. And I don't remember having touched it, knowing it was the only thing Dell provided to restore my laptop in times of troubles.
I started looking for the way to restore the original OS, since my laptop didn't come with any CD/DVDs, only with the famous partition. I've found many posts, official websites, etc on how to reach the restore menu from the Boot menu by pressing F8, etc. But after doing it and logging with my user (included in the Administrator User Group), I didn't get the option at the end of the menu to restore using the Dell factory settings. That made sense to me since the menu is part of the Windows 7 OS Recovery utilities (which I didn't get by means of Dell), so I decided to download Dell's Backup and Recovery Manager hoping it would recognize the partition, but unfortunately I got an error (You have not created a backup. Dell recommends you create at least one backup to use to recover your system, if needed.) and no matter how many options I looked at, the app wasn't able to find any backup.
Then I went to look at the partition itself to see if I could find any .exe that'd help itself get restored, but unfortunately got no success either. However, I noted that out of the 2GB assigned to the partition, only 633MB are actually used. The following are the folders and files contained>
Usually the recovery partition is inaccessible if the windows partition has been deleted, however, you can also try and initiate 'PC restore.exe' within the operating system. Browse to D:< Dell< Tools< PC restore.exe. Double click on it to initiate factory restore.
hey how you doing i been trying to do a system recovery on my laptop is a Dell Latitude D630 but i cant find a way to do a system recovery to make it factory settings if you can help me and let me know i will appriciate it thank you
Hi, I have itunes downloaded using windows vista and all my 4S backups are on the computer, now I have bought a 5S and can not access the updates because it says 5S is not compatible with the itunes version on Vista and it will only work with Windows 7 or higher which I do not have. What can I do to sync all my data that I have stored on my computer to update my new 5S. There must be a solution.
Support for Windows Vista (and XP) was dropped when Apple released iTunes 12.2 last year. The latest (and almost certainly last) version to support Vista is 12.1.3.6 - this is an out-of-sequence release from September 2015 that adds support for iOS 9 devices but lacks Apple Music and other features added in iTunes 12.2 and 12.3. Links to the installers:
The last of these is actually (like all "64-bit" editions of iTunes prior to 12.1.2) the 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer - this should be used if you get a warning message about video card incompatibility and may also address issues with poor audio playback, integration with 3rd party software, and general stability of iTunes.
Note also that no version of iTunes since 11.1.5 has been fully compatible with Vista; all subsequent versions consistently generate Data Execution Prevention errors on exit. Since Vista is just a little more than a year away from complete withdrawal of support by Microsoft, you really should be thinking about replacing your computer or updating it to a more recent edition of Windows. If you want to make use of Apple Music you will have to upgrade to Windows 7 or later.
As with previous versions of Windows, Windows Vista has more stringent hardware requirements to maximize the user experience and provide added functionality. However, unlike previous versions of Windows, hardware requirements vary for the different releases of Windows Vista. In some cases, actual hardware requirements will vary, depending on system configuration and on the programs and the features that are installed. Before purchasing and installing Windows Vista, be sure to determine whether the company computers meet the requirements for processing power in megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz), graphical display memory in megabytes (MB), and physical memory in megabytes (MB). The next sections discuss minimum and recommended hardware specifications.
The following list describes the recommended minimum hardware requirements for basic functionality of the different editions of Windows Vista. Actual hardware requirements will vary, depending on system configuration and on the programs and the features that you install. If you install Windows Vista over a network, additional hard disk space may be required. Computer systems that meet the minimum hardware specifications can run all versions of Windows Vista's core features, such as innovations in organizing and finding information, security, and reliability.
Administrators who are unsure if their computers are Vista compatible can run the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor on individual machines to learn which version of Windows Vista can successfully be installed on the computer. This software tool will scan a computer and create a report of all known system, device, and program compatibility issues and recommend ways to resolve the issues. In addition, Upgrade Advisor will report if the hardware is not sufficient to run any version of Windows Vista. The Upgrade Advisor can be downloaded at www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/upgradeadvisor/default.mspx.
As with prior versions of Windows, Microsoft provides a different set of hardware specifications that are needed to experience all the features and functions available in Windows Vista. The following list describes the recommended hardware requirements from Microsoft for enhanced functionality of the different editions of Windows Vista. Actual hardware requirements will vary, depending on system configuration and on the programs and the features that you install. If you install Windows Vista over a network, additional hard disk space may be required.
Computer systems that meet the recommended hardware will be capable of running all versions of Windows Vista core features, such as innovations in organizing and finding information, security, and reliability. These systems will also provide an even better Windows Vista experience with the Windows Aero graphical user interface, such as translucent, glasslike interface elements, live taskbar thumbnails, and Windows Flip 3D.
The Windows Vista experience is really based on the amount of hardware available to the Vista OS. If you want the best user experience in Windows Vista, make sure your hardware is the best it can be. To do so, consider the following alternative hardware specifications:
