Can I install Windows XP from an ISO pirate legally if I have another computer with a product key?

Hello. I have a moment Dell Optiplex SX280 provided with Windows XP Professional (and product key) does not. I also have a broken (probably irreparably) Dell dimension 8400 supplied with Windows XP Edition family (with a key). Because I have these keys, it would be legal to install Windows XP (a pirated version) on my laptop Compaq Presario CQ42 that at first run Windows 7? I would appreciate a response.

Thank you.

(Attention that I am not a supporter of piracy)

The answer is no.

  • Workstation HP Z240 Tower: can I install Windows 7 from scratch?

    Greetings!

    The operating system on my computer is actually win 10 Pro demoted to Win 7 Pro. I want to know if I can install from scratch Windows 7 in my computer using the Windows 7 disc with the computer.

    I was told, the operating system is Windows 10 but it uses an interface of Windows 7. I don't understand the need for this complication. If you can just install Windows 7, so why use an interface? Maybe this computer only works with Windows 10?

    What are you trying to do, as you say that you are already using Windows 7?

    I do not understand your question about "interface."

    The GUI (graphical user Interface) for Windows 10 incorporates most of the features of the GUI for Windows 7 and also of the GUI Windows 8/8.1.

    See: http://www8.hp.com/ca/en/products/workstations/product-detail.html?oid=8354563#! = form tab

    Your computer was preinstalled with:

    Windows 7 Professional 64 (available through 10 Pro 64 Windows downgrade rights)

    and also comes with a license and support for Windows 10 Pro software.

    My recommendation: given that Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 7 in January 2020 - a short period of absence - install Windows 10 to get security-updates for your computer now and after January 2020.

    Suggestion: if you have a "spare" disk drive, disconnect your current hard drive, connect the 'spare' and try to use this support for Windows 7 to install Windows.  That should answer your question about "can I install...". ».

  • Windows XP Home edition has crashed - how to return WXP and use with the product key?

    Hello. I bought an Equium L20 last year and after 1 year my windows crashed due to a virus. I want to know how to get a real windows xp OS because the product under my laptop key is always saved for me and is a legitimate product but I can't get windows because it was obviously preinstalled and no CD was given to me with the package.

    How can I get back Windows to use with my product key on my WIN sticker below my laptop.

    Hello

    First of all, it is very strange that recovery CD is not delivered with your laptop. It's hard to believe, but anything is possible. As you know after buying a new product, it is very important to check all orders sent with it and if something is missing, you must call the local as soon as possible and not to wait a year.

    Sorry but this key code belongs to original recovery image and you can't use it with every installation of Windows XP Home edition CD. In your case, there are two options:
    -You can buy the CD of facilities Microsoft original WXP (with the key correctly code) or
    -Contact the partner of service allowed in your country and order the new CD from recovery for your laptop model.

    All that s!

    Bye and good luck!

  • Hi How can I install windows 8 using an iso image

    What should I do to install windows 8 to from an iso image and put it on a flash drive thank you

    Hi Reynardo,

    I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:

    1. You try to perform a clean installation or upgrade of Windows?
    2. Which Windows operating system is installed on the computer?

    You must download the ISO from Microsoft and you must burn the ISO on DVD or USB to be able to install Windows 8 on your machine. You need an earlier version of the Windows operating system to install Windows 8.

    If you have purchased an upgrade key.  Check out the link on how to upgrade from Windows 8 by using the upgrade key: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only.

    See also the suggestion provided by Andre Da Costa: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_install/instructions-how-to-create-a-iso-for-windows-81/85ddf565-0b4f-4867-a926-6af73f5eb4e9

    You can perform a new installation of Windows 8.1 or Windows 8 using the installation media, such as a DVD or USB flash drive. You need not a previous version of Windows installed on your PC to perform a clean Windows 8.1 installation, but you do it for Windows 8. If your PC does not have a version of Windows already installed, you need to install an earlier version of Windows or buy Windows 8.1 or a System Builder of Windows 8 version from a local retailer if it is available in your country or region.

    How to perform a new installation of Windows

    Warning: If you format a partition during the installation, all data on the partition will be erased. Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin.

  • Install Windows 7 from. ISO file

    First of all, I did research almost all day on this without success.

    In 2010 I bought Windows 7 Pro (downloadable), which was composed of three files - executable and two .box file.  Run the executable file created a subdirectory called "expandedSetup" in the .box file.  This directory contains all files in the folders to include a .box setup.exe.  I installed this on a test without problem computer.  In trying to create a VM Pro Windows (since I can't run the setup.exe directly), I used MagicISO to create an ISO of the contents of the directory "expandedSetup".  When I select the file in VMware, it recognizes that it is Windows 7 Pro; However, after the initial requirements of VMware configuration, VMware tries to run the image and returns with "Not found operating system".  And that's my problem.

    Three Linux virtual machines on the same machine so I am not new to the creation of virtual machines with ISO files.  However, I am new to create a virtual Windows machine and do not think that I have a question.  Does anyone have any suggestions or a solution?  I also tried to create a machine virtual without the OS thinking I could transfer the contents of the "expandedSetup" folder in the 60 GB drive and then manually run setup.exe.  However, I never did it and can't seem to find a way to do it.

    I am running VMware Workstation 9.0.3 build-1410761 running on a laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.  The laptop has 32 GB of RAM, 1.5 to RAID 0 storage and two nVidia GeForce GTX780M graphics cards in SLI (4GB) configuration. So resources are not a problem.

    In advance, thank you!

    Is - this ISO bootable created? In this case, create a new custom virtual machine and select 'I'll install the operating system later'. -With the created virtual machine - connect the ISO to the virtual CD-ROM drive of the virtual machine, then check the box "Connect at Power On" to run one of the ISO image installation.

  • having the 1935 error code and can not install windows vista from my recovery disc

    I have a recurring error when trying to install all programs (Error 1935).

    and have reinstalled windows using my vista full 23 bits and when installing any program, even a basic program I get the error code 1935. I have a recovery disk, but I don't know how to start to charge and use the recovery disc supplied with my PC
    can someone help please because I am a beginner

    Thank you very much
    Dave

    Each manufacturer is different things about the recovery partition.  You need to contact the computer manufacturer (online - they can publish procedures - or by telephone) for instructions on how to use the recovery disk (there are probably a combination of special keys at boot that activates the process).  Keep in mind that this type of resettlement will completely eliminate your primary system partition, so don't forget to backup your important data until you try it.

    Here is an article on the 1935 error and solution to fix it.  Maybe this will help (he has a little advanced, but so is the problem then do your best to fight the operating instructions).  http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2004/11/10/255346.aspx.

  • Can not activate Win 8 - reports of problems with the product key

    Hi all

    I have just downloaded 8 Win and tried to upgrade my existing Win 7 Home Premium VM, which I run on VMWare Fusion 5.0.1 on my Intel MacBook Pro 2009. I wasn't able to do the upgrade in place - the installer told me that it was not possible to run Win 8 on this machine. Instead, I created a. ISO file and used to install Win 8 in a new virtual machine. Everything works fine, but I can't activate Win 8. The error message tells me that "something is wrong with the product key" even if I could install Win 8 with the same fine product key.

    I called various hotlines MS today but don't have anything got no solid advice. Am I the only one who experience this issue? Is there something I need to pay attention during installation of the virtual machine to win 8? Is it possible to install a fresh VM with a key product upgrade in the first place? I would appreciate any information you might have on this subject.

    Thank you in advance and Bravo,
