It is on 31st January 2013 I am posting this question. It is my fault I didn't ask this question before and thus am missing the windows 8 available at Rs 2000 ($39.99). Please modify your online shopping systems so as to accommodate payment by credit cards and net banking. View this thread

Last night when I was shutting down, I got the message "install update and shut down". I chose that and this morning when I started Windows, I found that all of the data associated with my programs were missing and the start screen was as if I had just installed Windows 8. The programs were there but no data. I chatted with a Microsoft support person who told me that Microsoft does not support OEM installed software. She suggested a system restore, which worked. But, what went wrong and can I trust auto update any longer? View this thread

Thank you so much Ferra1980...wherever/whoever you are, you have great skill in concise technical writing and I wish you the utmost success in computing with vista! =) ....just one thing...when you boot vista from the disk, then choose to "repair installation" then use the cmd program to change directory to C:\ (cd C:\) (assuming C:\ is the drive where vista is installed)...before "chkdsk /f" will start to run it will ask you to release all handles currently pointing to this disk...i have found that doing this seems to leave everything okay! Thank you again! "Ferra1980" wrote: > I solved the error in this way: > > 1)Boot Vista from…
