10 free of charge during the first year Windows update - include Windows XP and Vista?
Hello
I read in the press last week that Microsoft will offer a free upgrade of Windows 10 for users of Windows 7 and 8 for a period of one year after its initial launch. My question is Microsoft will expand the offering to users of Windows XP and Vista?
As long as the material can cope with the new operating system - and it seems to be able to scale up to a certain extent - surely, it would be more beneficial to all parties that as many possible Windows users get the new standard rather than race systems not supported / dangerous or ineffective.
I know several users who are quite happy with their existing equipment, but are showing more concern with the lack of support from their systems and they cannot afford to upgrade their hardware right now. There are also many companies who do not want the additional costs of purchasing new computers if its computers are fit - for-purpose (except for the lack of OS support...).
If the grand design is to get Windows facilities as 10 in the first year, then it would seem preferable to offer either to these users:
(a) a free upgrade like any other Windows user
(b) a small fee upgrade - say £10 - get to 10 Windows

Right now, this offer is only available for Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 7 users, but if you migrate your installation of Windows XP now to preview Windows 10, you will receive the promotion.

Satellite A300-1QD - two questions during the installation of windows XP or Vista
Nice day
Here's my problem:1. I just bought the Toshiba Satellite A300-1QD and since there is Vista based on it and I have Vista ultimate, I decided to install on the laptop.
After I formatted deleated everything and I have the partition that I created a new.
After that I installed Vista, now I'm at the point where it says complete installation and the blow bar is at about 2/3.
My problem now is that it's now been 3 hours and nothing happens the dots next to the 'installation complete' is still occurring and disappearing.2 as the number one lasted so long I decided to install windows XP Professional, but when it loads after that I put the cd one has bluscreen place called chkdsk.
What should I do now to get something on what works?
Hello. I think that the partition table and boot loader are messed up and it's your problem. You can try to chek to find errors and format your HARD disk with a third parity tool and try to install windows again.

Satellite L500-1ZR - battery died during the first installation
Hello
I really hope someone can help me.
During the first time I started my new Toshiba Satellite L500-1ZR battery died and my laptop turns off. I was in the middle of the installation and now when I start it, it gives a word of warning: "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error." Windows Setup cannot continue. To install Windows, click OK to restart the computer, and then restart the installation. "However, when I click OK it restarts and I find myself the exact same caveat. I tried F2 and F12 to see if he had options to do a startup repair and also I inserted a disc on which I downloaded a hardware configuration, but it won't work.
Anyone got some ideas on how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Hi belisu,
The advanced boot menu, you can access via the F8 key before Windows starts.
With the F2 and F12 button, you can access the BIOS menu and start.So try to use the F8 key to access the Windows Advanced Boot menu and try to start the Windows repair option. It starts from Toshiba HARD drive recovery and restore settings factory.
Good luck! :)

Other results: preliminary report does not properly during the first run in a loop
I have an unusual problem with NI TestStand 4.1. I have a loop For and it contains, I have a call from sequence configured as a test of numerical limit. This test is configured to report additional results. All other results are preconditioned test cases. Here's the unusual part: during the first iteration of the loop, the test passes yet additional results for the parameters of all inputs are reported (output parameters are not presented at the time, but more on this later). Spend all additional this test iterations in the loop For and additional results are not reported.
Regarding output parameters... If a test fails I'm expecting (input and output parameters) results to report. However when I encounter a failure only the additional results that are output parameters are displayed on the test report. Input parameters are not reported.
If anyone else has experienced this? My expectation was that all additional results would be declared in case of failure. In addition, in the absence of a failure I expect not to see additional results. Thanks in advance!
The short answer is that the condition of additional results for input is evaluated before it's called the subsequence, so that it uses the value of the previous iteration Step.Result.Numeric (or by default on the first).
You can see this described as stage 15 in the following link:

blank resource visa info during the first round
Hi all
I am trying to run the pilot of 6100 fluke on a fluke remote 6100. When I run the initialization of the remote device, I always get the following error message:
VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF000E) the given reference of session or the object is not valid.
I followed the problem and saw that the visa being passed resource name contains no valid information (see below). That is not sensible, since when I select the name of the resource from the drop-down list, the program has clearly recognized the remote device. Why the program allow the user to select the resource of visa but won't visa valid for driver information?
This error occur only during the first inning. If the user run the program again, the error disappears. Can anyone help? Thank you!
Yik
When the program is run for the first time, visa name contains valid information:
General
The resource name of the canonical VISA = blank
Visa refnum = white
Session ID = 0
I/O timeout = 0
Type = 0 INTF
Value = empty
Stop? = True
Condition
session valid? Fake
Instr is? = False
Stop? True
AHA!
You select the resource from the drop-down list BEFORE the start of the loop? An SR might help

Price from the abo student after the first year
Hey there,
because I'm a student, I have to pay the first year € 19.34 (at this time), when I choose the student-OBA. But I don't know what is happening with the payment after this first year.
On this site I discovered, I would pay € 29,74 because it's the 'normal price-abo", but where can I find more information on this"abo-regular price?
And how many years can I pay the €29,74? I would pay € 29,74 even if I don't have a student more? Why I can not choose the abo-regular price plus € 29,74 directly?
Kind regards
Tobias

After the first year student delivery extension
I bought Adobe Creative Suite student/teacher edition a year paid in advance, and I'm rather looking forward to it must be renewed this year. I'm still in College and the creative suite is vital to my curriculum and the courses that I am enrolled in. Is it possible to continue the student before her rate rises after the initial of a year?
The introductory rate of $19.99 / month (with an annual commitment) for students to save 60% on the price for the first year. After the first year, we will renew your contract automatically for another year at the standard student monthly price then in effect once we have checked your student eligibility (currently at $29.99 / month) unless you cancel. Once you're more student, the price goes to the standard price (which is currently $ 49.99 / month).

Renew the student/teacher discount after the first year?
G ' Day.
In the terms, it says that the subscription will increase to compensation lump sum and then after 12 months, I was wondering if the student/teacher discount is renewable after your first year so you can continue to pay the reduced fee as long as you qualify what he? I am a teacher and I use adobe products occasionally.
See you soon!
Hi Justin
The offer of a $14.99 student/teacher of promotional pricing for the first year only.
After the first year you renew at the price standard student/teacher this plan which is currently a $ 24.99. It is always a reduced rate compared to the regular (no student/teacher) price plan.
I hope this helps.
Thank you
