Vista ISO download

[Ex_Brit]

Maybe but I'm not really an expert on that. Windows itself will find a lot of the needed drivers.
If the computer is a proprietary brand you should be able to look it up on their website and obtain drivers there.
Or look up the motherboard and the CPU on their respective makers' websites.
The best place to ask would be in the drivers section I guess, here: Drivers

If the OEM came with that other laptop then there it stays, it can't be used anywhere else.

I would start from scratch with the ISO I linked, after burning it to media of course.

Success! Thanks again

That's great. Glad I could help.

Thanks again. From what I have researched and if I understand correctly, the only problem I may have is that under Vista 64 bit all drivers must be digitally signed. The 32 bit drivers will not work at all. So I ran the sigverif.exe and it came back and said out of 191 files found 160 of them are signed, 25 were not signed and 6 were not scanned. Out of those not signed I was surprised to see one of them was my NVIDIA video driver. the others I did not recognize as anything I frequently use. I do not know why the 6 were not scanned unless it was because they are in use. I'm just nervous about the change because I use my pc many hours a day. I'm just trying to determine if it is going to be worth it to switch you know. Which none of that guarantees that after I install the 64 bit that those drivers will be digitally signed but it does say most of them are. Anyway, thank you again for all your help. Amanda

If you need assurances best ask questions in the Drivers section of the forum as I suggested earlier as this thread is on another subject.

Good luck ;-)

Hi

I have been referred here by a forum member, as I understand it I can get a copy from a link you will send to my email.

Version is Vista Home Premium SP2.


I have the product key, my DVD broke.

Thanks for you help.

Cheers

Daniel

Hi, is there any way I could get reinstall or recovery disks or possibly a download for my Gateway LX6810=01? I have the Windows Vista 64 bit code key on my computer and I want to reinstall Vista on my computer. Windows 7 ultimate has been installed on it so I don't know if the original operating system has been wiped or if Vista files are still there. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Sure but you need to post your email address - post it disguised as in xyz AT abc DOT com and you should come back after you've got my ISO, and edit it out of your post.

If you installed Win 7 over the top of Vista there should be a file on the hard drive called windows.old which holds files from the old system. But normally an upgrade install would preserve your files. A clean install would not.

Hello, could you sent me a link for vista sp2 x86 ?


I hope it has all updates till 10.2013 because I have some issues when trying to update (updates are not configured correctly...) the iso I got from the internet.
