After modification of the material or adding hardware: will be the key to license still work?

Hello. I have a dvd of Windows XP SP3. I was wondering what material I can add in the machine. Is there a limit? I would keep the motherboard.

What I know or I was told when I called Microsoft sales at 1-800-426-9400 licenses: when I add/edit I think it's 3 or 4 pieces of hardware - Windows will ask me to re - install XP. I then do the updates again until the most recent date. I have to re - install my malware and programs again, etc. Is there a limit to the additions? Because the rep said the license key is not valid, and I have to call Microsoft to set up again to $10 and the tax. She did her better with me, but maybe thought that I meant an upgrade I'll mention below. My motherboard has 5 hard drives, 3 more hardware pieces at the front, 1 Pcie x 16, 1 Pcie x 1, 2 Pci. In theory: if I added all this stuff here, XP would work or do I have to call Microsoft? Is this considered a reclamation system and my product key will work?

I asked if there was a limit of CPU?  I was told there are 2 changes: the rep said there is no limit.

I saw on a website a video explaining how to change your hard drive on a Flash drive. If I change the HARD disk to another HARD disk or drive of Flashhard in my copy of Windows Office work? Another version (Vista or 7)? What if I changed everything, as in my above question/example? This would apply to a laptop? (In the video, it was for a laptop). Or should I contact the manufacturer of my laptop and ask? Can there be a driver problem?

If I had to install a XP to Vista or a Vista upgrade to Windows 7 upgrade when it's compatible version: should I clean just install the upgrade? Or reinstall the original and then pure install the upgrade? Do I need the original updates to install upgrades? I'm under the impression just do a clean install and its good to go. But: If I've changed some hard-ware with the original OS, has been invited to re - install, validate the copy I have - so should I clean install upgrade? And I can do any hard-ware adds or changes later with the upgrade versions? The representative said no, validation would jump to the top explaining that the key doesn't work anymore.

If I installed an upgrade to an existing operating system and there was a problem for me to have to re - install the OS upgrade: How can I do this? Woud I first install the original? I have to validate this OS? Then the upgrade? Or just pop in the dvd upgrade and it should install as a full version? The rep told me on the phone that a message saying: I can't use that key, I'll have to call the get that he regenerated for $10 and the tax. What happens if I had to re - install and I used something like Norton Ghost? I can re - apply my disk image?

If someone had a motherboard with multiple sockets for processors (say two proessors can go there): can they change the processors? One or both? Maybe I've misunderstood this concept well.

So just the product key? with the reactivation...?

But is there a limit to how much I can add to internal?

What switch the hard disk of laptop or desktop (in case of failure or a newer more/better).

In the case of the OEM licenses, the license is valid only on the motherboard original (except in certain circumstances) - almost everything is up for grabs.
In the case of retail licenses, everything is up for grabs :)
 
I had a system that I built in 2002. He went through two motherboards, three (or was it 4?) processors, at least 5 hard drives and a variety of expansion cards up to what I finally put to rest a few months ago - I have never had to reinstall except when changing motherboards, due to the incompatibility between chipsets. The reason for which I put to rest was simple - I wanted to change was the case - and the motherboard in the cracking process. I'm saving for a new capable of running Win7 64 bit :)
 
The laptop that I'm writing this on is due for a new HD - when I'm close to it (he is sitting on the table) - because the old man is too small. I'll just copy the complete installation through a new, plug it in and I'm leaving - at least in theory.
 
Look here for details on the process of Activation, http://aumha.org/win5/a/wpa.htm , that article was written when XP came out
but is updated according to the needs.

  • The screen, Touch screen still works, how?

    It happened last night. The last time the display worked I started a playlist for my shower. I adjusted the volume to once or twice without turning on the screen, and after drying off the music by removing the speaker again Jack without turning on the screen. The aircraft then went into the pocket of my shirt and I ate dinner and watched a movie, but when I tried to do a little surfing before bed the display does not illuminate. I saw him light up the buttons, but take a few seconds to display when the CPU is busy so I waited, nothing happened. I removed the battery and tried again, nothing on the screen. But then I discovered that the touch sensor is still working, I could slide to unlock and turn off in the standard mode just blind. I looked at all the stickers water they are both white and Red bright x

    While writing this question (I'm sure many of you already know this fact), I discovered that my camera screen is actually three separate functional parts. The capacitive touch screen, always in activity on my camera, the LCD also still in operation and image generator the Led illumination source that lack of a more precise description is grilled.

    So my question is how could happen, it's hardware or software, and what are my options?

    This seems definitely related material for me. Is the phone still under warranty, by chance? Motorola has a repair service that will fix it for free, if it is still under warranty. If it isn't under warranty more there will be a flat fee of $110 for the repairs, which was the price for the last time I looked anyway.

  • Satellite A500-13W - after update BIOS the FN buttons do not work

    Yesterday I updated my Bios of my laptop to 1.50. After that the FN buttons no longer works. Can someone help me? ^ ^

    Sorry for my bad English

    Hello

    You have installed the correct version of the BIOS of your laptop?

    Features of FN buttons are normally not depending on the version of the BIOS. So, you need Toshiba value added Package and utility tools to Support Flash Cards. Then I recommend to reinstall two of them.

    You can download it here:

    Remove all older versions first. Reboot then install VAP and finally Flash Cards Support utility.

  • Windows 8 install - read the key to license OEM's BIOS - Dell XPS 8500

    Hey there,

    I tried to reinstall Windows 8 on my PC using the original key as my hard drive has stopped working. When you try to use the Dell installation media, Windows Setup asks for a product key do anything. I loaded default BIOS and tried to boot the disk of the Legacy BIOS mode as well. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hitik

    No MSDM tab is no product key. If the system is supposed to have one there is a problem with the motherboard (I've seen a few times, but it is very rare).

    You will need to call Technical Support Dell if the system is in warranty to have it replaced as the key is now considered to be material.

    The system will work well otherwise. If you have no guarantee that you will have to buy a new Windows license or you can install Windows 10 Technical Preview and hold out to see if you are upgraded to Windwos 10 for free or for a discount.

  • I dropped my iphone 4s in the water, but it still works?

    I actually dropped my phone in the water before, but it worked fine afterwards, despite the fact that I have did nothing. I went in the bathroom again today and it seemed to work very well and I don't think anything of it. All sounds have worked, the screen and the brightness seemed fine, and all the buttons work. My wifi worked not briefly, but the wifi in my house is a little wobbly and I turned it works and it was fine. I used it for more than two hours later and it was fine, until I noticed water under the screen. I immediately looked up what I must do, turned my phone off, took out the sim card and began painstakingly dry with a hair dryer (I don't have any rice or silica gel), paying special attention to the battery, but also an opening in the phone. The hair dryer was weak, I kept it at a distance, and I followed it constantly for that phone don't fire no. I skipped, it regularly for about 20-30 minutes, turned to the monitor, and the brand of water has been growing (its in the half top of the screen) and it seems to have disappeared, but I wonder if the water could simply scattered. I have it turn on and off several times and it always seems fine.

    I need to know if you think that the phone will survive. Also, I can't afford a new phone or to get it fixed now, so if you have advice that can be performed by an amateur at home, then I'd love to hear them. Thank you.

    I think that your phone will probably survive if you used a hair dryer on low, do at least 1 iCloud backup every week, but if you get a new phone, I'm sorry.

  • Could not find the keys to license RD

    Hello

    I would like to reinstall RD CALs on my Standard 64-bit of Windows Server 2008 R2 server. The keys have been installed by another technology, but a game has been installed by the user and the other by the device. I have two options: (a) change the by button on the device to user or (b) to reinstall the two 5 client access licenses. Either way works for me, but I think that option b is the way to go because it would eliminate some of the headaches by associating the user account with the ID, instead of devices.

    Thank you

  • I would like to know, if the first 14 elements still work with Smart Sound? Thanks for a response!

    Hello, I love to give the music to my videos with Smart Sound Sonicfire. It works perfect in first 11 elements. So before buying 14 items first, I would like to know, if this still works with Smart Sound.

    Sorry for my bad English!

    First 14 elements has no interface directly with SmartSound, like older versions of the program. The program now includes Scores, that is Adobe tool for the creation of custom music titles.

    However, if you copy a piece of music for SonicFire as a WAV, you will be able to import that WAV in your Premiere Elements project.

  • iMac hangs after connecting with the interminable spinning beachball, but works in safe mode.

    Plug

    iMac 27 "(mid-2010) running Os X El Capitan 10.11.4"

    Processor: 3.2 GHz Intel Core i3

    Memory: 16 GB at 1333 MHz DDR3

    Problem

    With a normal startup, iMac will start properly and I can successfully connect. Once connected, I immediately get a popup window stating "To open"CS5ServiceManager", you need to install the runtime Java SE 6 legacy." I have the opportunity to click on 'Détails' or 'OK', if I click on what anyone, I immediately get the spinning beachball. I'm sure that he ran the updates at night, because the next morning was when problems began to occur.

    With a sure start, I can connect properly, everything is and I can open applications, it's just very slow.

    What I have done (in no particular order)

    1 Ran first aid utility disk

    2 reinstalled OS X El Capitan

    3 reset the NVRAM

    4. the elements of disabled opening (Dropbox and Google Drive)

    4 Ran correctly in Safe Mode, but when I rebooted the problem still occurred.

    Recently I also upgraded my RAM from 8 GB to 16 GB, it has greatly improved the performance of the machine, and I don't have any problems so far.

    I'm almost to the point of wiping the device to its factory settings, because it is so frustrating me. I really don't store anything on site, everything is in the cloud, or on an external hard drive.
