  • Re-install Windows 8 single language on MSI computer laptop SSD (added)

    I have laptop MSI (MSI GE60-20E). It has a single language of Windows 8.

    I bought an SSD and installed.

    I tried to re install the single language of Windows 8 for the SSD. (I downloaded a copy of Windows 8 single language)

    Can someone give me instructions on how to do it? I have all my important files on a drive external backup so all left to the laptop is good to go.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hey Rolando,

    Thank you for the update.

    From Windows 8, new machines were incorporated in the BIOS and both product keys you re - install Windows, it should automatically detect the product key integrated.

    • When you say "fresh install", do you mean to say clean install?

    That you have downloaded a copy of Windows 8 single language, you can start the computer with the installation media you have created, and continue with the installation.

    Important: Please back up the data before performing the installation. New installation (clean install) will erase everything (even for applications that may have installed) computer and only Windows will be installed.

  • 64-BIT Windows 8 single language to Windows 8.1 update

    I understand that I can receive a free upgrade but is not easy to find a URL to download from. Is there a link to a repository I can do download and install?  Of course, my Dell Inspiron 3521 has a key of Windows embedded in its firmware, so I shouldn't have need an activation code be?

    I thank very you much for your advice and your efforts.  I really appreciate the willingness to help on this forum. :)

    Microsoft has lost it completely. Not even Vista could poison me but Windows 8 and beyond seems to be out of tangents which will take users on the roads better not fly.  I think that my experience today has convinced me to migrate to Linux completely.  For the record, this humble Dell little performs rather well on different distributions of Linux, such as Zorin, mint XFCe 15, mint 15 MATE 64 - bit, mint cinnamon 15 (and I did look like a Mac) as well as PearOS.  All material work rather well, there is no compatibility issues, it is extremely robust and stable, but also very safe to use. Some reason that Linux is virtually free of viruses because of a much smaller basic installation.  Truth is that security lies in its operation; It would be just as safe even if all 7 billion have been using it.

    Dell comes with Ubuntu on some models, even on Alienware and I can certainly recommend. The learning curve is there and noobs need to learn new tricks, but the same can be said for MS Windows and MS Office.  Best of all is that every piece of software comes free and updates are also free.  The upgrade or installation is as easy as check a box and a click of the mouse.  It installs seamlessly and rarely do we need a reboot.

    My Linux does not use never more than 1 GB of RAM and it starts in less than 180 MB!

  • Activation of Windows 7 after several failed installations

    The Win 7 Pro involved in this activation number was purchased new in 2011 and has been installed on the fairly old laptop from my wife at the time.  Here is how we have so many uses of the product activation code:

    * In October 2015, we decided it was time to replace his old laptop.  At Costco, we bought a Lenovo comes with Win 8 on it.  I replaced Win 8 with our copy of Win 7. - New activation 1

    * End of October, the laptop Lenovo had to be sent to Lenovo to fix faulty USB ports of the system.  When the system has been returned to us win 8 had been reinstalled.  Yet once I replaced it with our Win 7. - New activation 2

    * In November after reinstallation of Win. 7, the USB ports are still non-functional, so I sent it to Lenovo.  Yet once the system has been returned to us with Win 8 installed, and even once, I replaced it with our Win 7. - New 3 activation

    USB ports still did not work, so I took the system to ' FRY' store in San Marcos, CA, for them to fix it.  In the process, they wanted to borrow our victory. 7 CD, which I gave, and they used. - New activation 4

    * Fry said that electronics USB were damaged and could not be fixed, so I went back to Costco and then bought system from Amazon, a DELL system comes with Win. 10. I replaced Win. 10 with our Win 7. - New activation 5

    * Believe it or not, ports USB of the DELL printer didn't work, then Amazon is replaced with a new DELL (with Win. 10).  This time, before doing anything either, I tested the USB ports and believe it or not, they WORKED!  Then, I once more, installed and activated our victory. 7 - new activation 6

    This system - the new DELL with our old Win. 7 is installed, worked great.

    We do not believe that it is possible to "invent" a story like the true story above!  If he must show "stupidity" above, I can provide documentation that supports the story.

    Please put our activation 2 - one for the initial installation in 2011 and the other for installation on the DELL laptop I'm using to type this message for you.

    Thank you and God bless.

    Hello

    If you have used, for example, a Dell disc on an HP machine, phone Activation will not work.

    ______________________________________________________

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    This can help you (download files and make your own DVDs):

    http://www.heidoc.NET/Joomla/technology-science/Microsoft/57-Windows-Vista-direct-download-links

    And here are instructions on how to burn ISO disk images:

    The download links and information on how to make the ISO file, and then create the Setup DVD above are at this link:

    ___________________________________

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    ___________________________________

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Them or us ask the right sequence of key.

    ___________________________________

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    ___________________________________

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    KiranS Hello,

    Judging by your post, it seems that Microsoft had technical problems when you tried to activate your copy of Vista by phone. Have you tried phoning the line Activation again?

    The normal procedure is that if the activation fails through the automated system, the call is transferred to a real person. It is the only available option if you get the error 'use existing product key'.

    I can only suggest that you try again the activation by phone and see what happens.

  • Activation of Windows 7 - geographical Limitation

    Hi all

    I am looking for a solution to a major problem that I have at the moment with regard to the activation of Windows 7. My wife recently gave me a Christmas present in the form of a Windows 7 Ultimate pack. Opening it, I discovered that it is geographically restricted. Problem is that I am a Malaysian citizen but live and work full-time in Europe returning twice a year for your holiday in Malaysia. The pack makes it clear that it can only be installed and activated in Southeast Asia and its for my PC at home in Italy. So I called Microsoft and spoke to the representative who assured me 100% (a word he used) it shouldn't be a problem. I decided that I would not ask for a refund of the eventhough for the seller, it would be impossible in the case.

    So imagine my surprise when I completed the installation in Italy and I tried activating it and it failed. Now I'm stuck with a PC installed with Windows 7, but not enabled. I can not return the pack and can not use it. Can someone help me please? I hope that I'm not penalized for being an honest client to Microsoft.

    Thank you

    Try the phone option and explain the situation.
