can I use the same product key for a gradient win 7 I'm ready to move from xp to win 7

I bought a 7500 in 2010 precision workstation which came with win 7, but I asked to be demoted to xp. I'm ready to install the Windows 7 OS on the cd supplied with my system, original but I'm not sure if I need a new product key or can I use the same product key that has been activated as an OS xp to win 7 OS?

The Dell Windows 7 reinstallation DVD will use the system locked preinstallation seizes only a generic Dell locked preinstallation key system which will automatically active if and only a valid Dell BIOS is detected. The same for the XP reinstallation CD.

The COA affixed to the system must be Windows 7 Professional and must have a unique 25-digit product key for Windows 7 Professional. There is not need to be entered in the system locked preinstallation is used.

  • can I use the same product key once I formatted my hard drive using a vista upgrade disc?

    can I reuse the same product code already used on one computer on another that I put that hard drive and is no longer using vista on this computer, but want to update another?

    If your computer is pre-installed with Vista, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

    The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
    You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

    If a license of Vista at retail, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
    But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.

    A single license is a single Installation.

  • Need to format the drive due to some problems and having to reinstall Windows 7. I could use the same product key

    Original title: Windows 7

    I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP 1 that have previously been installed then bought my laptop. Product key number is fixed under the laptop.

    I need to format my drive due to some problems and having to reinstall Windows 7. can I use the same product key and where can I get the installer of Windows 7 because I don't have it.

    Thank you

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Where can I still get Windows 7?

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  • Can I use the same Adobe ID for Amazon AppStore - and - Play from Google?

    Hello!  We have been on the iPad for two years now and have finally taken the bet to design a version of our magazine for the range fire Kindle from Amazon.  I'm curious to know if we can share an Adobe ID between Amazon AppStore and Google play, so that all of our Android folios remain in the synchronized if the user is on the material from Amazon or another provider.

    Thanks in advance for any ideas.

    Yes, you can use the same ID (title ID) of Adobe for Google Play Store and Amazon Appstore. In DPS App Builder, create two separate applications, each time specifying the target store (in the App Builder, Google play is still called Android Market). However, I do not recommend that you use the same Adobe ID for iOS and Google/Amazon unless you offer a personal right (Enterprise only).

    A key difference between the Kindle Fire viewers and viewers Android is that Kindle Fire viewers do not display the navigation bar. Here's a detailed article on the Amazon/Android devices targeting:

  • can I use the same USB cable for two printers - HP Officejet 4315 and HP Officejet 6110?

    I have an existing HP Officejet 4315 with USB cable and want to use the same cable replacement for my other printers, the HP Officejet 6110.  This allows me to change the cable between the printer and still work?

    Thank you for your thoughtful replies.

    As you asked specifically about the compatibility of the USB cable, I would say that it will work because both devices support USB 2.0 (that is, both devices can be used with the same USB cable alternating).

    Installation of the software for the two devices must be made successfully to use various functions.

  • Can I use the same Weblogic Server for soa suite 11 g and OSB panels?

    Hi all

    Is it possible to use the same server weblogic for SOA suite 11 and OSB?

    Hi Arun,

    SOA 11 g is running on weblogic version 10.3.2 OSB is running on weblogic 10.3, so you can't have two SOA suite 11 g and the OSB on weblogic even (not EVEN in the two areas of same weblogic). You must have two facilities of weblogic. (at this time)

    After the next release of OSB (planned for H2), you can run both the same weblogic.
