transfer files from your old computer, use old hard drive?
I just buy new desktop HP Pavilion p6-2120. I need to transfer files, programs, etc from my 6 year old Dell desktop computer. I know that I can use the program of transfer of Windows 7 with USB key, easy transfer cable, or external hard drive to move the files.
As can another method of transfer, I take the old hard drive from the Dell desktop computer & install in the new HP Pavilion? Is the old hard drive (ATX 80 GB, 7200 RPM, DIM2, XPS2) compatible with the new HP where it will work again?
Since I am not transfer that much is the best for any purchase a Windows 7 transfer cable?
mikesimms,
Your theory is correct. If you want that all settings, email, documents, photos, music, and other data files, use either the program Windows Easy Transfer. It will accept an external device or use the easy transfer cable.
If you want only the documents, photos, music, and other data files , then you could add the XP disk to the system (temporarily use the p6-2120 DVD player wiring). You can copy files to the new folders.

Can I use the product key of Windows 7 on another computer
I have an old Acer (3 yrs Old) computer that has win 7 Home Pre. installed. The computer died and is no longer functional. Can I use the key I want to re - format and install Windows 7 on another computer?
Not on computers preinstalled
The activation key belongs to the Assembly of the computer if it shows a tag oem on the bottom or the side of the case.
If you have a lot of detail with an activation key and dvd it might work
Enter the key here and see if M$ offers a download of the iso in your language

Can I use the part of a file name in a watermark?
Hello
I have a lot of files to .tif I need to convert to PDF and then affix a unique watermark.
This watermark will be based on the file name, but only a part of it. For example a document with file bmw06125_x_1.pdf name should be stamped with a watermark indicating something like "see mw06125".
So basically, what I need is the mw06125 of the file name part to be part of the watermark is it possible with my copy of Acrobat Pro.
I am very new to this software and I still have to use it effectively, but I don't know that it will allow me to automate a large number of stamping and conversion. I was also wondering if it was possible to use Excel spreadsheets as part of automation, because I am able to write a formula that will allow to create the name.
Any help would be appreciated.

Put the hard drive from the old computer in the new computer as a 2nd drive. Or turn the player
in an external USB enclosure. Or the other must allow you to access the files.I hope this helps.

How to fix "invalid Id"then produced transfer XP from an old computer to a new one?
My old computer was damaged by lightning so I bought a new one and am now trying to load XP on it; but the product key 25 character on the certificate of authenticity at the entrance is met with: ' the kid of product you have entered is not valid. Assuming that the code has been transcribed exactly where should I go from here?
If you are using a version of OEM Windows XP product key only lights up on the original computer it was installed on and cannot be transferred to another computer.
If however you have a "Full" version of XP, then you can try phone activation.
Not that some new computers not support XP, so check the web site of the manufacturer of the computer XP device drivers for your specific brand and model.

Should I use basic mechanical system on my new Windows 8? Whenever I have call Dell for support on another issue, they me to do this, the pressure insisting that Dell prefers customers to have this and it is very important. I finally gave in last night after two hours of tired discussion (always support the India). They carried me, against my better judgment and I charged $115. (When I asked the price several times, each person evaded my question with finesse. 4 people, quite hammered me on this subject.) I found it only cost $40 on the site of SM, so for me it is a real scam and will take opening upward with them tomorrow when business offices. Everything I read in the MS community suggests that it is a bad idea, but I'm not clear on the question of whether it applies to Windows 8.
I really hate Dell support and hold that I had utilisΘ Geek squad. Microsoft so far has been very useful for its support.
You must uninstall System Mechanic and not to install any third party maintenance program if free or paid for.
I would not recommend Geek Squad either (after having seen a lot of posts here related)
You sure it was Dell support were you talking so that I find it most odd that they suggested you buy such a third-party utility.
On the rare occasions I have talked or emailed Dell support they never proposed such a utility

How can I disable the auto-hide known file attachments and why are they always about 10 Web pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?

Ignore the link of the player Shockwave that probably, you mustn't he compared to Flash player because it is barely used nowadays.
FredMcD, you really need correct/update your clipboard for that.
The downloadable Shockwave player version (not flashing) is 12.1.3.153 and not 15.0.0.152 as you can be confusing which version of the flashplayer reached before.
Flash player is 15.0.0.189 and not 14.0.0.179 as you can see at https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Flash player is used for good Flash videos like Youtube and Flash games in Shockwave player is little used compared to Flash, for things such as games and online learning tools.
And please, don't say "I asked. It's the way it is displayed on the site"as you said last time in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026518 , because who says little about why you're wrong ad versions and calling Shockwave player, Shockwave Flash.

Deletion of files transferred using the Windows Easy Transfer feature.
I used the simple window transfer to transfer old files to new computer. I want to reverse this trend that I don't like some of what is transferred. How can I do this?
Windows Easy Transfer copied the files from the old computer to the new. There is no way to reverse the process. Just remove the Windows Easy Transfer files where to put. For more information, clickStart >all programs > Accessories >System Tools > Windows Easy Transfer reports .
