120 g for data D: drive, etc. New install.

2-drive r/w DVD we're new install.

After you install a second hard drive, 2 GB of RAM and an another DVD player, I get a message that Windows must be enabled.

The message does not specify that the OS is not genuine. Only, she states that because of new additions of material that I have to reactivate.

When I click on the ball to activate, nothing happens, no glass icon:. I waited half an hour the last time. Connection Internet is fine.

There is NO icon "activate Windows" or selection in Accessories > System Tools folder.

If you could provide me with the phone number I will call to activate by phone.

I DON'T want to reinstall Windows and losing all my links program.

Thank you

  • Satellite Pro L500-1W4 - cannot install Win 7 Pro after changing the HARD drive

    Hi all

    I need assistance with Windows.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro with Windows 7 preinstalled pro and the recovery DVD to downgrade to Windows XP Pro.
    I had to change the hard drive, so I try to reinstall Windows 7 from the recovery CD, but it does not work. He said that it is not possible to install this on this machine.

    So I tried with Windows XP CD recovery and no problem
    I'd rather have windows Windows 7 but I do not know how to retrieve
    Last information, the Windows XP CD recovery came with the laptop that Windows 7 was made by the store who sold me the computer.

    Thank you for your help
    Julie

    As far as I know there is not a kind of limitation and if there is no problem with the original recovery for Win7 disc, you should be able to install it on any HARD disk that you use with your machine.
    I upgraded HDD to the SSD on my installation of picture machine and the restore worked without any problems.

    To be honest, it is not easy to say what the problem is here, but the Win7 installation disc is somehow suspect for me. I don't know what model of laptop you have exactly, but somehow, I feel you didn t get original drive Win7. Best evidence is the Windows XP Home edition recovery disk. The prinziple with Win7 is the same and it should works.

    When you use this disk you should have the menu as shown on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    This document explains how this works with the original installation disc of recovery.

  • HP Photosmart C6280: cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10. Have removed the device, but try to re install the printer when is not found. Can print if I connect USB. Tried to reload the driver using HP Support software help, but when he arrives at the end of the download fails.

    Hi @Ron9871,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you are unable to get your printer HP Photosmart C6280 wireless printing. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 10).

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note: the IPV4 IP.
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.

    Please restart the router, the printer and the computer in this sequence.

    If you're still having problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.  The Network Setup page shows the parameters of network for the product. To print this page; Press the button of network () on the control panel of the product.

     
  • Cannot update Windows XP Pro after the reinstallation of the Message, the website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. There is no error code displayed

    Cannot update Windows XP Pro after the reinstallation of the Message, the website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. The error number is 0x8024400A.

    Should I turn off my Anti virus software is what could be stopping my updates? some sites would sugest that I use Kaspersky 2012, if that's the case, then why do all my other programs that are installed to date OK?

    Hello

    Check your level of service current pack...

    • Hold down the Windows (between Ctrl and Alt) key and press Pause break
    • Examine what is listed in the system: section

    If there is no service pack designated first level you must download SP2 from...

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=28

    .. .and then run the downloaded program to install SP2.

    Once you have done this, or if you were already in service pack 1, 1a or 2, then install SP3 by downloading and running from...

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=24

    For both of the above, you can ignore the text that says it's for network installations and also ignore the text advising windows/microsoft update if a single update of a PC.

    So try and get up-to-date with the Windows updates.

  • Cannot activate Windows 8 Pro error message slui.exe 0x2a 0xd0000010.

    Original title: slui.exe 0x2a 0xd0000010

    Try activating windows 8 pro after buying the upgrade through MS online.  Initially it was working fine, then I was invited to return my today activation code that I did, now it will not activate.  What's weird is, if I go to the system properties, it is said not activated, I click to view details, and then it tells me that it is enabled.


    I feel like it's not, I can not download applications or run updates to add features to windows
    I tried slui 3 to activate as well as run CMD slmgr.vbs - ato which still registers an error (same error that States submit).

    I did a refresh with tech windows on the line to restore windows again, but that has not solved the problem.  I couldn't finish cause lack of time with MS.


    Anyone run into something like this before?  The upgrade has been run from Windows 7.
    Thank you.

    Sorry I didn't answer, I just got power after the hurricane!  After that the PC would start again, he finally had the status of active.  I'm not sure what he did, but at least it works now.  All thanks for the reply.

  • WANT H8-1569: cannot activate WIN 10

    I had my HP ENVY again in the box for 2013 and decided to start to replace another PC who was dying.  He started by WINNING 8 (not 8.1) and was soon to do all the necessary updates to the current. I have not upgraded to 8.1 to WIN.

    Before the break free WIN 10 update, I installed the upgrade and everything was fine until I saw the message that WINNING 10 needed to be activated. I had no WIN 8 product key, but used Majical Jellybean Keyfinder to get the key, but WIN 10 still would not turn on.  According to Win Support that I need to get a key for WIN 8 activate WIN 10, but the key in the bios was crushed by a 10 key WIN by default overwritten during the upgrade.

    So is it possible around this so I can activate WIN 10 or is there a way I can get a WIN 8 key to solve this problem?

    My other alternative is to buy 10 WIN and do a reinstall, but I would avoid it.

    Thank you.

    Peter6083

    First of all, by itselfr, Windows is UNABLE to write to the UEFI firmware where the product key is installed; Therefore, there is no way that a Windows Setup would replace this key.  You must use the programming code of the special firmware (like the one provided with the updates to the BIOS) to change the firmware.

    Second, MagicalJellyBean is not reliable to find OEM product keys, as it tends to report what he sees in the registry, and that is not always correct.

    To find the integrated in the UEFI firmware OEM product key we this utility: Showkey - Windows 10 Forums

  • Cannot connect Win 7 Pro PC Win XP Workgroup

    Win 7 Pro 64 Bit PC, I see the Win XP PC if I'm typing \\name in the search box or line URL but the connection disappears as soon as I close the Explorer. They do not appear under network.
    I do not see the Win 7 PC to any Win XP PC and can't do their ping
    I tried to disable the firewall from Win 7, but that did not help.
    I tried to change the network ID on 2 PC different of XP, but it does not work:
    Right click on desktop, select Properties
    Click Network ID - watch computer belongs to a domain that is not, there is no server
    changed by not part of the domain
    changed the name of the workgroup is same as name of working group in the main screen
    Save the changes and reboot
    When I go back to look at the changes are not made, back on the field and bad name working group (the "working group")
    What could be blocking me to change the settings for XP? I am logged in as administrator (the only user on all XP PC).

    Thanks for the links. I tried all settings suggested and many more other items, but I still can't Win 7 Pro SP1 from PC to see the Win XP Pro SP 3 pieces.
    Even tried stopping IPv6 and changed sharing encryption 40 or 56-bit
    All Win 7 PC can see another Win 7 PC and all the XP PC can see all other XP PC.
    I Ping the PC XP from Win 7 PC, but I can't Ping a Win 7 PC to any PC in XP.
    The Win 7 PC IP addr are 192.168.2.xxx, the XP IP addr 192.168.1.xxx.
    This would be a router issue?

    XP cannot recognize the Homegroups Win7 so machines Win7 need to be networked by using user accounts and passwords.

    All the computers are in the same workgroup and the same subnet (IE. 192.168.1.x AND 192.168.2.x)

    You did not say as much, but it seems that if you are using 2 routers, or a router, and another device that is also using DHCP to assign a different range of intellectual property of the numbers on your local network. There should be only one DHCP server on the network. If you are using 2 routers, rewire inter-connexions such as only one router is the only DHCP server and offering all services while the second router routing simply acts as a switch with no routing service.

    The type of network for Win7 computers must be set to home or work. Choice work avoids having to deal with getting rid of the default settings of the homegroup.

    Make sure the network discovery and file & printer sharing turned on for home or work on Win7 computers networks

    Regarding access to shared files, etc., XP computers must connect to a Win7 computers with the user name and password of a user on the Win7 machine. The commonly recommended solution is to create a single common username with the same password on all computers on the network. (If you find a better way, I wonder if it's me)

    Encryption level should not affect the connectivity (high is best) as long as it's the same for all machines.

    The Win7 firewall may be set by default to block incoming Pings, or it might be your router configuration. Anything from an IP address 192.168.1.x could be regarded as an external network by the 192.168.2.x router connection and incoming Pings can be blocked because of this.

  • Cannot create a PDF file after the upgrades: Adobe 9.2 and Mac OS 10.6.2

    After the upgrade to Adobe Professional 9.2 and Mac 10.6.2 I lost the ability to create PDF files.

    The printer Adobe (display says that the printer is v. 9.0) indicates the status of the job as "Mistake" and has the following message; "You must install the software to use this printer. To install the software, choose software update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer is not available in software update, contact the manufacturer of your printer. »

    I get errors when I try to create a PDF from a Web page.

    I get the following error when I try to create a pdf from a word file: "Acrobat cannot open 'AAA.docx' because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been correctly decoded).

    To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document in Adobe PDF format".

    (I can create a PDF from jpg files... but I never really have a need to do this...)

    I uninstalled Adobe Professional by using the uninstall program (then emptied the trash and restart), then reinstalled Adobe Professional from disk (and restarted).  After the reinstallation, I always get the same problems, even if I get no error message until Adobe Professional updates from 9.0 to 9.2.  Before the upgrade Adobe, v9.0 attempts to print to pdf just act as the pdf is created (no error message), but I do not get a backup fast, nor is a new pdf no matter where the document is located.

    Help, please!

    With OSX.6.x, the possibility of using the Adobe PDF printer has been lost. See the ad at the top of this forum (known issues with Snow Leopard).

    There is not acrobat reader pro.  There is acrobat pro (costs money and you have a serial number) and adobe reader (free and no series number).

    assuming that you have acrobat pro, uninstall everything which is currently installed by using the adobe uninstaller program.
