I got my Windows 8 Pro in the mail today.  I installed it successfully in my PC.  Can I use it again to install it in another computer?

    Yes, it's misinformation. It is not true for any version of Windows.
    With the exception of the pack family of Windows 7 (updated, not a full
    version) the rule is very clear: it is a copy (or a license) for
    each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

  • Why I can't install Windows 7 pro on HP 2000-2d70dx

    When I try to install windows 7 pro 64 bit on my HP 2000 - 2d70dx is says something about an invalid? source.  If I try windows 7 pro 32 bit told me that I must install an operating system - never to read the installation CD.  CD 32-bit & 64-bit are the Microsoft installation CD

    I tried several auto start of the CD and the system always says that I must install an operating system and will not be able to boot from the CD (although boot from CD is enabled in BIOS).

    Help!

    Hello:

    Have you enabled legacy mode (which disables the secure boot) in the BIOS?

    Windows 7 will not install or run if that BIOS setting is not changed.

  • Can I install Windows 8 Pro 64 bits with a 32-bit Windows 8 Pro license key?

    I searched through the forum, it seems that there is no difference between 64-bit and 32-bit licenses. However, as I know suggested for 64-bit and 32-bit retail price are different. I get confused! If they are the same, then eveyone would buy a 32-bit and then install 64-bit... is it true? Your response is truly appreciated.

    Yes, the product key works independently of the architecture (32- or 64-bit), so you can use the same product key used to activate 32-bit Windows 8 Pro with 64-bit Windows 8 Pro.

  • HP Envy 23: How can I install Windows 7 Pro Windows 8.1 pre-installed slim like 23?

    Hello... I HATE 8.1... but I saw your list of wonderful driver for your laptop and I was wondering if it is similar to a HP desktop computer when removing windows 8.1.   I already asked HP for help, but they, unfortunately, are "unable" to tell me that I can even load Windows 7 23 want.  People very nice, but very limited information.

    I managed to find 2 new copies of Windows 7 Pro, more a have on hand software... obviously, until Windows has the world dislikes phone applications on a computer, we need backup copies!

    My brand new mess is a HP Envy 23 I just bought last Sunday and hates carefully.

    I got the USB backup, just in case, but to wipe the drive (if I can) and change the boot order (if I have will be tolerated), and of course, eliminating all additional platforms I could find if this is possible)... What do I need to save the facility from 8.1 to make bits andpieces and love its color and whatever work?

    And what on Earth is UEFI?

    Thanks in advance... I know that this forum is a labor of love.

    Six days in a 30 days return... Help!

    Knowing the complete model of the computer help, HP Envy 23-xxxxxx

    Try to downgrade your system would probably void your warranty and a challenge trying to find drivers that would work with Windows 7, a real headache.

    If you want to go this route, you need to disable secure boot and enable legacy in order to change the boot order.

    It may be easier to keep what you have and make it Windows 8 look like Windows 7

  • Can I install win 7 pro on two hard disks on the same computer, to be a recovery in case of virus problems.

    I have an older hard drive and a new on my computer, I installed windows over before hard disk, I bought another hd.

    I would like to install the os on the new hd as well as the old hd, in the case of a failure of the system, is it possible?

    You can't, it would be considered separate licenses and cause problems of product activation.

    What you need to do, is keep Windows 7 installed on a single disc and create a backup of your system on an external hard drive to backup:

  • Can I install Photoshop elements 12 on two computers?

    I have the trial version of Photoshop Elements aP and I want to buy it.  I also have two computers, a Windows 7 and the other is XP.  Can I pay once and get the program on two computers?

    Yes, a single user license allows you to install and activate the application on both machines.  The restriction is that only one of them can use this app at some point.

    You might want to try installing and running the test on both machines, in this way you get to confirm that the program works correctly on both and then, simply use the serial number of your purchase to activate trial versions to use fully (you don't have to uninstall).

    Hello

    Maybe you have an old version of your Windows XP operating system in the Microsoft Windows CD.
    I guess you are not able to install the OS, because some updates and SP are missing on the CD.
    You should try to include service packs of MS, and then install the operating system.

    PS: I put t understand why you n t use the recovery CD. The installation is very simple and al Tosh drivers are pre-installed. OK, it s a Home version but there aren't huge differences of Pro
