Can I use my Win 8 DVD to install on another PC without additional product key.

I bought Win 8 of the MS store online & have upgraded to 8.1 now, but I also ordered the DVD as a backup copy of copy paper,

I have a PC for development/business & other for play & for the family to use.

The questions that I would like to know are:

1. can I install Win 8 of my DVD on my other PC with a key of one product without the other PC related.

2. I will be able to run different applications on the screen & names of account on the other PC.

3. each PC will have a different MS, google or another account is not linked.

I'm sure I have other questions, but cant just think on the right now, but I am sure they will hand after a response.

Each PC there own unique key, you can't use the same product key, if you have another product key for the edition, you can use the same DVD to update the other PC.

2. I will be able to run different applications on the screen & names of account on the other PC.

Yes, you can.

3. each PC will have a different MS, google or another account is not linked.

You can use different accounts or the same account. If you want to use the same account, but does not synchronize the same settings on each PC, just turn off the PC sync.

  • Can I use my Win 7 Pro Upgrade to upgrade my laptop running Win 7 Home?

    I bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade before realizing that I had bought the wrong upgrade to what I had on my computer. I ended up having to buy a Win 7 Home, then update to Win 7 Ultimate, so I could keep all my programs in tact. Now, I'm about to get a laptop. If the laptop has Windows 7 Home installed, can I use my Win 7 Pro upgrade for the version of Win 7 Home upgrade? If not, what version on the laptop do I need if I can use my already purchased Win 7 Pro Upgrade? There is no other computer autour who can't use my upgrade, it seems, because I ordered the version of 64-bit operating system, so I guess that laptop must have an operating system 64-bit as well.

  • How can I use an ipod nano that was synched to another computer?

    My daughter gave me his 2nd generation ipod nano because it is no longer use it.  When I plugged in my USB to load, I got a message informing me that there is an update.  It would not be updated beause "ipod cannot be updated because it contains files that are used by another application."

    What should I do to be able to use this ipod nano?

    I don't think that this message is related to the iPod is synced to another computer...  It is usually other applications or processes on the computer (which is not iTunes) accessing the iPod for some reason if iTunes is not able to perform the update.  However, your question in the subject heading ("How can I use an ipod nano that was synched to another computer?") is valid, since the iPod was previously used by someone else, with a different iTunes library.

    If you want to start using this iPod with your iTunes library and put on your songs, instead of doing an Update, you need to restoreThis erases the iPod, reinstalled the latest version of the software, and sets it to the default settings.  The iPod gets a 'new beginning', as when it was new.  To resolve the problem with this "files in use by another application" error message, try restarting your computer.  Immediately after the computer finishes starting up, run iTunes, plug in the iPod (if it isn't already) and try to do the restore (or Update).  If you still get this error message, please after return.

    If you are restoring, you can configure it to sync with your iTunes library.  You can post back, if you need advice on options for the implementation.

  • Can I use my laptop CD drive good install disks of program on another mini laptop (with broken screen)?

    I have a Dell Inspiron Mini running on Windows XP, that I dropped and broke a plastic wedge.  The broken plastic cut a wire to the screen, leaving me with a white screen.  I was able to use the fn 1 toggle to turn on a second monitor via a HDMI cable.  However, I decided that the blank white screen bothers my eyes, I went into the display settings and select 'make this my main screen' which means, do my main screen TV.  However, he turned off the TV screen instead of the empty white laptop screen.  The Fn 1 button no longer works.  I tried to do a manual telephone walkthough with Dell system restore.  By restoring the computer to its factory settings, I should allowed to use the Fn 1 button again to turn on my TV via HDMI cable - without success.  Therefore, Dell confirmed that I had a software internal problem and recommended that I post him for repair (no guarantee).  The Dell Inspiron Mini has no CD Rom internal drive, however, I have the original disks supplied with the notebook software program which is five years (or more).  The Dell Inspiron Mini operating system is Windows XP.

    Now, I have a laptop HP large format, with CD Rom drive, running on Windows 7.   Can I use my HP CD Rom to install the original records of the original Dell Inspiron mini Dell program?  Thank you.

    Thanks for the tips.

    You are welcome. :)

  • Can I use my Win 7 of the full version on the new PC?

    can I use my full 64 bit version of Windows 7 on another PC brand new built? (new motherboard, hard drive, etc...)  I intend to remove all data from the old hard drive that has windows 7 on it.

    The only version of Windows 7 that does not transfer of rights is an OEM license. Updates and full product package (Retail Pack) can be installed on another computer, as they are removed from the original system.

    There is however no system "unregister" the original so installation when you come to be re - authenticate on the new PC, you may need to call authentication don't center to activate the new installation.

    At first, I must say that Toshiba recovery image created separately for each laptop model and it is 100% created to work on the specific model. Why?
    Each laptop model has different hardware platform and all the drivers, tools and utilities for some models are part of the recovery image. These recovery images are also tested.

    Generally if the two models have the same hardware platform (hardware) it can be used.

  • If I can reinstall XP pro on a 'white box' PC using a disk with a Dell or HP? I have my product key. If I can't, then what?

    My 'white box' PC is all buggy after a lot of use, and I want to start with a reinstall.  I have my product key XP Pro but no media.  Can I use a disc that came with a Dell, HP or other PC manufacturer?  The steps, what are my options.

    Thanks for responding.

    No, you cannot use your support Dell/HP OEM to install XP on a generic computer built. Installation media more computers brand is locked in BIOS for motherboard of that OEM (Dells are). In addition, most HPs have just a recovery disc and not a real disk operating system. As for using the product key you have, it's from the CD that you used initially install XP on the generic construction machine? If so, will need you a corresponding version installation CD; namely the retail Home/Pro/MCE or generic OEM Home/Pro/MCE.

    You should be fine using the disk on the other computer. I don't think that you will have problems. You can use the product key for the drive that you use to install on the computer.
