FTM 2012 worked on my computer using Windows Vista for half a day. Have tried reloading the program but always comes up with the message "NET.Framework 4.0 missing". I noticed yesterday someone else had the same problem though with 64xbit (I have 32xbit) but I just cannot find this message now. I now it had a solution for those with 32xbit. The program worked perfectly on my laptop using Windows 7 but is rather difficult to imput lots of information due to its size. Thank you. View this thread

I have a Dell Dimension B110. with windows XP.. I let (even the young) kids use this pc. It has become practically worthless. When I bought the computer I got several cd's with it. As i was reading through the owners manual I found that the computer could be erased and it would be like it was when it showed up at my door. This would be great!! but as I proceeded to go through the steps the first thing to do was AS SOON AS THE COMPUTER STARTS ...1. see a blue bar, immediatly hit crtl .& f-11 .. as soon as i hit the ctrl & f11 it says CAN NOT RESTORE I have never tried to do this before and I did buy the computer new.

I had causing my m/c to go slow. Is this for real. He then wanted to load a file on my m/c to help him have access to improve stuff. I stopped him at that point, he gave me his mobile number to call him back on!! He took me though the system log and showed all the errors I had accumulated on my PC, seemed ok until he took me to www,windowsupport.us and then to click on "Show my PC" which results in a request to load a file "ShowMyPC3105.exe" which I declined. How much of this is real or scam? View this thread

First, I have many files I do not want to lose, and am not a computer expert. As in many other such problems shown here, I am getting the black screen and "Windows not genuine" - this after a year of use, using what I believe to be genuine windows 7 Pro sealed copy. I called Microsoft last night and the person (foreign) told me that the key I had was only good for a year! Is that even possible? Next, I want to fix this the easiest way possible, and will pay for new key if necessary. What I don't want to do s to start a days long process that causes my existing data to be lost . Is there an easy solution for a non-computer geek? View the thread
