Help and Support

[Guest]

If i open the feature help and Support and click on one of the items, I only
see a text page full with scrambbled words and figures.
What to do ?

Launch Vista's Help and Support and in the upper right
click on Options > Settings and place a check next to
"Include Windows Online Help and Support....."
and click OK.

You could try this registry fix:

Depending on where the file you want to register is located, the command
would be something like this example:

Running Command Prompt as Administrator, type:

regsrv32 C:\Program Files\My Game\example.ocx

Press Enter.

You're welcome. Now that I think of it, if you are trying to register
C:\Program Files\My Game\example.ocx, you can hold down the shift key, then
right-click on example.ocx, and choose Copy as Path. Next open Command
Prompt as Administrator, type regsvr32 at the prompt, then make a space,
then right-click and choose Paste. It will look like this:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\My Game\example.ocx"

Press Enter. That way you don't have to type out the whole path.

I am replying here because I can not create my own thread.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium installed; however,
when I open "What's new?"
i get "What's new in Windows Vista Home Basic"

How can I get the "What's new in Windows Vista HomePremium"
on my system?

AND my second question is why can I not create my own thread?
I have enabled pop-up.

Stop using the Web Interface to Usenet and learn how to subscribe to

other method.

Thanks for that. I have this error on my Vista Box and hopefully this will
fix it.
