There should be a warning that pops up just below the internet explorer address bar, telling you to allow it to download, just click allow on the pop up.

Unable to download vista service pack 2 from website. As soon as i click enter system shutdowns What should i do? As i using Genuine Vista premium edition

The first thing you might try is if you have auto-updates on for Windows, turn it off. Start>control panel> and either security center (WinXP) or Windows Updates, if you're running Vista. In the windows update window, in the left menu is a selection called 'Change Settings'. Click on this to turn updates off and on and to control how updates are handled.

Is your system shutting down only then? You may have a virus or other nasty. If you have an antivirus program installed please update the definitions and run a virus scan. If you don't have a current antivirus program installed download Antivir here . After you download it drop the download window into your task bar by select the _ in the upper right corner of the window. If you have another antivirus installed but the subscription has run out and you can no longer update it, remove it by going to start>control panel>add/remove programs (XP) or Programs and Features in Vista. Allow the list to populate and then uninstall the antivirus program. Also, in Vista you must disable 'Windows Defender' before installing Antivir. Start>control panel>Windows Defender> and scroll down to where it says, "use Windows Defender". Deselect that setting and that should turn it off. At any rate Antivir will alert you that's Defender is on and will give you instructions as to how to disable it. Upon successful install of Antivir it will automatically update the virus definitions and then initiate a virus scan.

You can also download and install Malwarebytes and run a quick scan. Malwarbytes can be found here: http://filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/

Once you've installed the program it should automatically launch and then do a database update. If it doesn't update on the tabs the third tab is 'update'. You can manually update the database from there. This program is pretty intuitive and easy to use. Just do a quick scan which is selected by default. You will probably have to let the program reboot to clean anything it's found at load up of the system.

Please let me know if this helps. If not we can try to find another solution.

Computer runs slow, much software. Cannot find

Go to Start, Control Panel, then to Programs and Settings. Right click on top of the columns (The ones that have the program names, etc) is light blue on to says Name, Publisher, etc. Choose the selection MORE... then put a check on "Last Used On" and this will show you the last time you used the program and you can then determine which ones you dont use.

I can't download adobe flash player, I think it has something to do with my flash card witch is not working either I downloaded various things from toshiba site BIOS, Utilities, and a flash card compatible...

If you have problems installing Adobe Flash Player, follow the troubleshooting steps below. If one step does not correct the problem, move on to the next step. After each step, you may want to restart your machine to ensure that your changes take effect before moving on to the next step.

Uninstall all previous versions
Before you install Flash Player for any Windows browser, uninstall all previous versions. For instructions on removing the player, please see "How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control"
at this link...
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html

Note:All applications must be closed before you run the Flash Player uninstaller. Quit all running applications, including all Internet Explorer or other browser windows, and all Instant Messenger clients. Check the Windows system tray carefully to make certain no applications which might possibly use Flash Player are still in memory.

After you have removed previous versions, you are ready to download and/or install Flash Player.
2. Download Adobe Flash Player Flash Player is available for download from the Adobe Flash Player Download Center.
3. Troubleshoot Adobe Flash Player for Internet Explorer Before installing Flash Player, please check the following browser settings:
Internet Explorer ActiveX settings Browser security settings should be chosen by you or by your system administrator. For single users who do not have an administrator, the Medium: Default Level allows you to view Flash content. For any Custom Level, ensure that both the "Download Signed ActiveX controls" and "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins" options are set to "Prompt".

To change your security level:
  1. Open Internet Explorer.
  2. Choose Tools > Internet Options.
  3. Select the Security tab.
  4. Select Custom Level.
  5. Find the section "ActiveX controls and plug-ins".
  6. Set ' Download Signed ActiveX Controls' to Prompt.
  7. Set 'Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins' to Prompt.
If you are having trouble installing, make sure that your Internet Explorer security level is not set to High or to a custom level that does not allow viewing of ActiveX controls.
Windows Vista installation failure On some Windows Vista systems Flash Player may be installed, but will not display Flash content. In some cases updating to the latest Flash Player using the included utility can correct the User Account Control settings that cause this problem.
To run the utility, find your installed Flash folder:
  • Right-click C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil9d.exe
    The letter changes with each Flash version, so may be "FlashUtilb.exe" or "FlashUtile.exe"
  • Select "Run as Administrator"
  • Follow the steps to complete the Flash Player installation
  • Restart your computer
Computer user permissions User permissions determine whether or not you are allowed to install ActiveX controls or plug-ins. If you don't have Administrator access to Windows NT, 2000, XP, or Vista you may not be able to install Flash Player successfully. Administrative privileges are required for the Windows system registry and for the C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash folder.

My windows vista blocked my downloads ...

You can disable this option by going in to the Internet Explorer Options.

Tools->Internet Options->Advanced->Scroll down to Security->Check the option "Allow software to run or install even if the signature is invalid".

Now, Restart the Internet Explorer & you are ready to go


Hope this would help.

Window Vista Problem

Using the OPTIONS menu of IE, select SECURITY. Scroll through and find the check boxes for downloading unsigned and expired ActiveX code. Remember what the current setting is, then uncheck the setting to temporarily allow expired or unsigned ActiveX programs to download.

Try your Veo Observer again, download the ActiveX and when you are sure it is working, go back to IE OPTIONS and change your ActiveX options back to their previous settings, which was to NOT allow expired or unsigned ActiveX code to download..
