  • Is Windows 8 Pro and Microsoft Office 2010 license Transferrable to new PC (during the withdrawal of the old PC)

    Hello

    I had bought Windows 8 Pro as part of the upgrade offer in 2012.

    My current desktop PC gives signs of imminent failure. So I intend to mount my own PC and all ignoring the old one.

    My question is if I can transfer the current licence to the new office.

    What is the procedure for the transfer of the Windows 8 Pro and Microsoft Office license to new PC?

    Thank you and best regards,

    UNNI

    Yes, you can transfer the two as long as they are copies of the retail sale and do not come pre-installed on the machine.

    To waive the license of the machine, you can just format the machine or uninstall the license of Windows 8.

    To proceed to reinstall Windows 8 on the new computer and restart phone.

    Please note:

    To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

    If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

  • Windows 8 pro and windows 8.1 pro 64 bit drivers ralink rt3290 and lan realtek PCIe FE Family Controller

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion GP A10 AMD laptop 2313-AX. The latest drivers from the HP website for windows 8 pro and windows 8.1 pro 64-bit drivers ralink rt3290 and lan realtek PCIe FE Family Controller appear limited in my laptop, but in the same laptop connectivity when I start in Windows Server 2008 R2, both LAN and wifi works very well.

    Are there drivers available updated 2013 for these two hardware devices as dated?

    Are there universal or generic drivers that can act as a workaround?

    If so, please give me the URL for the same thing.

    Kind regards
    Sriram.

    Hi Steve,.

    I came across similar issues where the driver manually enabled users to solve the problem. Uninstall the current network adapter drivers and manually install drivers that you previously downloaded.

    a. press Windows key + R key, type devmgmt.msc, hit the Enter key to open the Device Manager.

    b. expand network adapters, right-click on the listed network adapter and select Update driver software.

    c. click Browse my computer for driver software, click Let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computerand then click on disk.

    d. in the dialog box to install from the disc, click Browse, locate the drivers, and then click Open.

    e. follow the steps described in the DeviceName update driver software dialog box to update the driver.

    Try these steps and let us know the results.

  • Windows 8 pro and windows desktop tile 7

    I use Windows 8 Pro and whenever I click on a tile to program, it goes to the Windows 7 Desktop before opening.  After I close the program (e.g. Microsoft Excel), I have to manually return to the screen of windows 8.

    Thanks Ronnie, I got the Start Menu to understand now, but why it the screen of Windows 7 has to come.  When I click on a program in Windows 8 why cant he opened in 8 and close windows in windows 8 instead of opening on win 7 OS?

    Hi Mary

    It is difficult to explain.

    The Windows 8 Apps, such as the start screen and other applications, such as calendar, weather, maps and all the other apps that you install on the Store are programmed differently legacy Desktop Apps like MSOffice apps, Panel, a multimedia player, Manager of files, etc.

    When you open an application of Windows 8, it opens in a space full screen with none of the standard components that you see in a legacy windowed application, such as the 3 buttons on the top right (Minimize, Maximize, Close), a title bar or the components normal windowed app.

    A desktop application should open in a space with windows, which is represented by the office, so when you click to open a desktop application, you can see the desktop briefly it opens.

    The desktop of Windows 8 currently runs as an application of Windows 8. It is what allows the interaction between the start screen and the desktop.

    You can always use the Office to open these applications by pinning them to the taskbar, just as you did in Windows 7.

    I mentioned that the splash screen is the replacement for the Start Menu. If applications Desktop opens in the screen start, it would be like their opening on the top the Windows 7 Start Menu.  :)

    Tile: CMT Compaq dc7100 Dual Boot, Windows 7 Pro and XP Pro

    Hello everyone.  My computer is adjustable having the dual boot with Windows 7 Pro on disk 0 (320 GB SATA Seagate Barracuda 7200.11) and XP Pro disk 1 (40 GB SATA Samsung SP0411C). As the two systems are available at the start but most all the time Windows 7 Pro would use. The computer is Compaq 7100, WCL PP255US, 3.2 GHZ Intel Pentium 4, 3 GB of ram, Council ch h 0968, bios HP 78 1 v01.05 16/06/2004, chip Intel 915 G Express.  According to the website of Seagate Barracuda 320 GB with (quote), ' he not there no master/slave because every player relationship is considered to be a master in a relationship from point to point.» If two drives are connected to a Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system considers that the two devices as if they were the two "masters" on two ports separated. Both drives behave as if they were device 0 (master) devices.  On the drive Samsung (SP0411C) I put a jumper for master, it is connected to the motherboard instead of disk 1. Used rider illustrated for Samsung SP0411N since I did not see the SP0411C listed. When selecting information for Samsung Seagate site sometimes showed data for their readers. This is perhaps due to the recent acquisition of Samsung or maybe my mistake.  Tried swapping around wiring of each drive but that didn't work of course. Looked at the settings in the BIOS but did not see a way to create the dual boot.  Please let me know if you need more information. If you know how this can be done or have some suggestions, please let me hear it. As always, thank you very much for your comments.

    Hello oscarmint, I checked the specifications of your system and it does not show the system supports two types of hard drives.

    The system supports only Serial ATA (Sata) synchronous Maximum 150 MB/s transfer rate

    You would need to make the jumper on the Seagate 320 GB Sata Drive pin, set at 150 MB/s.

    You are right that the Seagate would not Cable Select or slave settings and it would be the master and only on cable.

    If the 40 GB hard drive is a type of ATA (IDE), you'd better put as selection of cables (CS).
