Can I use my xp sp2 coc on anouther cpu operation, after I installed windows 7 on what he was doing?
Can someone help me with this?
Yes, you can certainly do.
If you have problems activating the latter after the installation you can call Microsoft technical support at 1800-936-5700. Or you can simply call the activation service 1888-725-1047.
Good luck.

My C: drive boot sector is dead. Now, I need to get a new drive C. I don't have the original disc supplied with the computer. I don't have access to an XP Professional Upgrade disk. Can I use with the passcode on the sticker on my computer to install the operating system on a new hard drive? If this is not the case, what should I do to get XP installed on my new hard drive.
It is one thing for a replacement... Thank you
You cannot use your authentication code with a upgrade disk.

In fact, I have two questions:
[1] my niece has a HP laptop with a sticker of the OEM Vista Business product key on the bottom. She has no HP restore disks or something like that. The computer was demoted in XP and now there is something wrong and Windows fails to start (goes to blank blue screen with the mouse pointer, no further). According to the test material, the hard drive still works. I have a retail copy of Vista Business. Can I use its product key with my Vista disks professional retail to install Vista on her computer? It is the key to correct OEM, original to this computer product.
If the #1 answer is Yes, is [2] possible to install without erasing its hard drive? Maybe by making an upgrade? She has files out there that are not backed up - mainly music and Word documents. Can I somehow save them because I install Vista?

No, this is not possible. I guess that you don't really want
"retired", and that XP has been installed clean.and now there is something wrong and that Windows will not start
Something new, or it never does to start XP?

No. an OEM product key does not work with a retail CD. The CD and the
product key must match with respect to retail vs OEM, complete vs.
Upgrade and family or professional.If the #1 answer is Yes, is [2] possible to install without erasing its hard drive? Maybe by making an upgrade? She has files out there that are not backed up - mainly music and Word documents. Can I somehow save them because I install Vista?
Whatever you do, you must first copy the Word documents and music
files from external media: CD, DVD, USB keys, eternal hard drive
etc. Even if could do an upgrade (which you do not have a key for) you
should do it because there is always a risk of losing everything.Ken Blake (MS-MVP)

As the title, how can I use process Explorer to check PID 1176 60% CPU svchost.exe? Help, please.
The task manager has PID 1176-60% CPU, all the time, which I believe is the reason my pc works so slow.
How to use Exp Pro to know what is actually using 60% of my cpu, via svchost 1176 PID?
I found the Exp Pro Geek guide - but are struggling to pass for a non geek.
Using Vista 32 bit.
Thanks in advance for any answers.
Process explore uses more resources than svchost, it works automatically using a lot of memory. Anyway, the open task
Mgr, locate the svchost, R.click on the location of TI/properties/open a file. You will find that it is a service of microsoft.
The drain is usually in BITS, try to go to run, or cmd, type: services.msc in msc, locate BITS, R.click on it, open,
Set to manual start, exit msc, restart the pc.

Can I use my modem wifi re-large up my internet 64-bit of Windows Vista
##wifi
My laptop has a wireless modem, my access to the internet through the LAN. can I use my modem wifi re-large up my internet, so my other computers can us the internet. I guess what im saying is my card wifi as a hub. im sorry new to this.
I use win vista 64-bitThank youHey, I can't install Win7 64 bit...
Let's get back to a productive tone. You can use the Wi - Fi card on your laptop to create a wireless network for other computers. It is to create an 'ad hoc' network. While going through the installation wizard you can choose to make the ad hoc network, permanent or not.
Note: You can always remove/delete a permanent ad hoc network at a later date. The permanent setting will allow the ad hoc network to stay open even if no other computers/devices are connected on it.
To set up the ad hoc network, please follow the steps 1 to 3 as described here:
Set up a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) networkOnce created the ad hoc network, you need to enable Internet connection sharing for the network. To enable Internet connection sharing, please read carefully the information / the steps here:
Using ICS (Internet Connection Sharing)Note: In the long term, you will experience better performance/stability using a device dedicated to broadcast your network without wire (such as a wireless router). For any future reference the link below will allow you to check to see what hardware is compatible with Windows Vista, so that you can be sure that it will work properly with your computer:

After you install Windows XP on my system, I can't activate any key in this regard.
Work with multiple Codes are not valid on my computer.
I recently installed Windows XP Professional SP2 on an old computer in my company office. When it was over, I started windows update and I was told that my key is not valid. I went into regedit and changed the OOBETimer so that I could enter another code, activate Windows using, I received from winkeyfinder on another computer in the company. This key was supposed to be invalid, so I asked my boss. He used winkeyfinder on his computer and had the same winkeyfinder key returned on another working computer. Then, he contacted an old workman and got two more known keys to work. After entering the Windows activate both would also be invalid. Any ideas?I recently installed Windows XP Professional SP2 on an old computer in my company office. When it was over, I started windows update and I was told that my key is not valid.

If they are retail or OEM, the key can be activated on a single computer. Why di you think they can be activated on more than 1 computer at a time?

After you install Windows XP SP3, I am unable to use my modem.
I had Windows XP2 on two of my computers and one day he came with an update for XP3 it says that you can download now so I asked data doctors on this issue and they said yes go before I did. But now I can't use my modem that I paid for new install when I bought them. When I tried to put in place my fax modem it askes me to insert the CD XP3, but I do not because I upgarded to line. How can I remove XP3 and reinstall my XP2 I still have my cd, s on both computers.
original title: I got Windows XP2I guess you could uninstall service pack 3 (using the control panel > Add / Remove Programs), then install Services of Fax and then reinstall the service pack 3, but I do not know the consequences of doing this on all the updates post-sp3 installed.
(If you really want to do it this way, I suggest seeking advice from experts in the Windows Update forum posting asking "is it safe to uninstall and reinstall xp sp3". Include in the body of your message a question on post-sp3 updates).
Because you have a Windows XP sp2 CD, the best thing for you to do is to create a CD of XP sp3 using the process known as "slipstreaming." If you have a CD burner on your computer (i.e., a CD player that can write as well as to read the CD), it is a relatively easy thing to do - and it's always good to have a handy day XP installation CD.
There are many websites that explain how to do this. Here are 3:
