but if I'm remembered correctly, 32-bit apps still can run on 64-bit OS by emulation, a little bit slow but what the heck? today PC spec is like monster...

Vista Build: Retail 6000
Vista Version: Ultimate 32-bit
Problem: 0xC004E003 - Some validation failed stuff

Before this problem occured, i originally have Vista in my computer. It's genuine =.=. And after i reformat it, this problem just come out of nowhere.

Tested :-

1. Full format HDD, and clear up everythig.
2. Reset BIOS.
3. Installed more than 5 times. =.= this is tiring..
4. Have 2 HDD, tried to install on different HDD , but still same problem.

Could just use phone call to activate, but it's annoying to see this kind of error in the future. Any idea how to solve this problem?
* and i wanna find out what is the cause to this problem too..

just ask...for vista ultimate as i already upgrade from XP SP2....how many space this vista ultimate use...this because i have 73GB available on my C drive...after reformat I found left 20gb from 73gb...after i checked on window...vista still keep one folder name old window...After i deleted and now left 33gb from c drive....but still 40gb still too many for me....i'm expected might be 50gb left...

eh, I only use 25GB partition for Vista. there are some more hidden garbage IMO. better do a full formatted installation.
to make the DVD Key legit for installation, What you do is during installation, DO NOT enter the DVD Key first. Only after teh OS installed, then enter teh key. If not it won't work as upgrade key needs to have old os installed

yeah, with vLite, I only use 3.5GB of space (excluding pagefile).

FYI this is the first time reformat vista ultimate....and never though that would be happen....usually when we reformat normal XP SP2 it will erase all data at C drive....I might wanna reformat again, if i still didn't found any of the rubbish...

SP1 is known for it's problem, it's better to have integrated Vista DVD with SP1 and reinstall from scratch...

Did you upgrade the BIOS before?

that's normal. 64-bit applications/games are installed in Program Filesx64 so you can have both 32-bit and 64-bit installed on your system. and yes, 64-bit does uses more spaces, a vLited vista 32-bit ISO is 700MB while vLited vista 64-bit ISO is 1.26GB...

owwhhh..ok...
and how about the problem im facing with the game?

If I were to purchased a retail copy of Windows Vista from UK, can I still activate it in Malaysia? Anyone?

how to install vista theme?

i just download Glass Glow theme form website.

hi, i'm having some problem here. i can't open swf file in my vista home premiuim. anyone have d solution? thanks a million.

Instal the Adobe Flash plugin?

yup, install d. but still cant open. =(

open it in IE?

yup, thanks. but is there any way other then IE? can view like photo gallery?

I don't think you can open flash in Photo Gallery. Just use your IE or Firefox to open it.

Does he mean by using SpaceTime?
