Change the motherboard on a Windows 7 (full retail)

I have a custom computer I built with Windows 7 Ultimate retail. At the start of the third or fourth, I get a blue dump of memory and the screen (driver issue) I'll change motherboards and reinstall the OS. Everything else will remain the same. Will I have any problem the reactivation of Windows with the new motherboard? I can come back from 64-bit to 32-bit when I do. I don't know yet. My retail version has two discs. I can also upgrade the graphics card but have not decided. Thanks for any help!

Windows 7 full versions include the transfer rights to new hardware. The less it will take is the phone activation.

    Hello

    Looking at the Maintenance & Service Guide ( Page 76 ), the Council only listed system is one that you have already - that is to say graphic with dedicated 1 GB memory.

    In general, even if there is a better option, at the time wherever you take into account the cost of the Commission, editing and "tattoo" the bios to make your oem windows remains on, it is usually cheaper to buy a new laptop with a better graphic option.

  • Change the product key for Windows 7 Code

    I bought a package of Windows 7 from a supplier without realizing it was a distribution of subscription "not for sale". It is now installed on my computer after a painful migration from a dying hard drive which had Windows Vista installed. The old drive is now corrupt and not repairable.

    When I tried to record the installation, I found that he was blocked. I have to make sure that it is for the reason above somehow. How to check this?

    It seems I have to buy another Package of Windows 7 but I don't want to do a fresh install since I went to great effort to set up the installation on a new SSD and have all of my applications transferred intact.

    Is it possible to just change the product key of the new package to apply to my existing install without having to reinstall everything?

    Just for the completion of this thread, I decided to pass my final action to get my computer system operating system up-to-date.

    Assuming it was a MSDN product licensed, it was repackaged in a retail store packaging and sold as such.

    Needing my computer back to the status of full support, I bought a 64-bit edition (non - OEM) of Windows 10 full retail on USB media. Is it installed just fine on top of the MSDN license of Windows 7 and allowed me to install without erasing the contents of the disc. My applications and drivers are intact. Windows 10 also all updates installed correctly.

    This allowed me to remedy the situation without having to re - install everything that would have been very time consuming.

    Thank you for your help.

    Yes, you can reinstall Windows 7 OEM System Builder License on the new hard drive with the new processor.

    It will not be a problem in this case, since you don't "move" installation, you are doing a new installation. The less it will take is activation of the phone, as you change the hard drive:

  • Why an amplification of the RAM does not change the index performnance of windows vista?

    Why an amplification of the RAM does not change the index performnance of windows Vista?

    Hello

    I m not very well, but maybe you have more than 3 GB of RAM and Vista 32 bit.
    Usually the 32 bit OS is capable to manage and send only 3.2 GB.
    The more than 3.2 GB RAM will not operating system used and therefore would not increase the index
    In addition the laptop will be not really faster after upgrading RAM. You will notice better performance using applications at the same time, but this does not affect the index of Vista.
    But this is only my personal hypothesis.

    Is it possible to change the motherboard for a Toshiba Satellite L100-121 PSLA0, which is a 945GMA of Intel graphics card, with a motherboard with the best video card, or just the video card?

    I want a better video card on my laptop, so I can change it?

    Hello

    You cannot move the graphics card because it s mounted on the motherboard.
    He welded s and cannot be deleted

    But I wonder why you want to replace the mobo together to get the best graphics card. Is that a card mother books is one of the expensive laptop parts.
    The replacement would cost about 300-400 euros.

    I think a desktop PC with a new graphics card would be much cheaper ;)

  • Is there a solution of 1 button to change the display language in Windows 7?

    I am tired and sick do not receive do not answer to my question and my anxiety while you post as if respond you. You insult me. You make fun of posting me that you got a response to my concern and question yet I couldn't see any response what that it is displayed on this web page, nor do I found a link to any answer.  You are doing the public a say ' service.  If you are unable to answer my question on the open air, then at least send me an email to * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Please SEND THIS If POSSIBLE to BILL GATES AND ALL OTHER MICROSOFT GURU OR MANAGER WHO CARES REALLY BRING of BILLION OF DOLLARS EXTRA to MICROSOFT OF the STRANGER.  OR AT LEAST SEND TO ANYONE WHO CARES MORE TO THE SUCCESS OF MICROSOFT AND THE FUTURE.
    My question to which I have still not got an answer was; If "Windows 7 Ultimate" has a button by which we could change the display language for windows with a single click in the computer. To change this through many steps are not an option for billions of nonEnglish speakers who doesn't understand enough about how to do these steps, so they decide that it is not worth to buy Windows in a foreing language to them, so they use just illegal free or cheep Windows copy from one computer to the other. They prefer windows in English, but only at certain times to have display in English and to be able to go to their native language at will. We want a button click on change of English in any foreign language major, on and before each time that decide us or want to change.
    Many steps in trying to change the display language is not an option. I am an English speaker fluent, but I like both French and Spanish. I have XP, but for me it is better to buy the Windows7Ultimate if he proposes a change to the language screen button click in windows. IT IS NOT AT ALL FOR ME TO BUY WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE IF I Y GO EVERY TIME THROUGH THE PROCESS ENTIRE HEADACHE TO UNINSTALL ALL MY PROGRAMS AND WIDOWS AND INSTALL AGAIN JUST TO HAVE THE DISPLAY OF THE LANGUAGE I WANT AT ANY TIME I WANT.    BILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON EARTH DESIRES TO PASS ENGLISH LANGUAGE MORE THE WORLD AND THEIR OWN LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND BETTER, TO SWITCH YOU AS MANY TIMES AS YOU NEED OR WANT IT, EVERY DAY WHEN DOES.
    It is not practical for us, nor possible because we do not have the time to uninstall windows or a 5 times language pack, or 6 or 7 times a day just so that we could switch between English and French or Spanish or Chinese-Mandarin Hindu SEVEN times per day that we might need. WE WANT to SWITCH BETWEEN WINDOWS DISPLAY LANGUAGE ENGLISH AND ALL OTHER MAIN FOREIGN LANGUAGE 100 TIMES a DAY IF WE FEEL WITH THE CLICK OF A button I LOVE and no one should stop us to do, and I mean that WE SHOULD HAVE THAT OPTION of BEING ABLE to DO so, BUT I'M NOT aware THAT WE DO.
    SO please LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE the OPTION with the HELP of THE OTHERWISE ULTIMATE de WINDOWS 7 IT does IS NOT INTERESTING for me to buy Windows7Ultimate since Windows XP, it's still as good or better.    About 5 billion people on earth or more do not speak English a lot understand enough - well BUT they would like to (and I will) to switch between the English and their (or my) native language in the display of Windows, several times per day whenever we want.
    Have we THAT the OPTION TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE in WINDOWS WITH a SINGLE CLICK of a BUTTON AVAILABLE IN Windows7Ultimate OR NOT?


    That's what I need to know, but no one answered my question so far.  Don't give me more than a link to a web page where I could buy or download a language pack that I would have to install and uninstall 10 times a day if I want to change from English to Spanish or the French and return in English and Spanish, and so on 10 times a day.  This process is stupid and a waste of time and it is not difficult, if not impossible for most of us (of the billion of us). WE NEED AND WE WANT TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE IN WINDOWS WITH A SINGLE CLICK OF A BUTTON AS MANY TIMES WE WANT EVERY DAY.  IF I PAY MICROSOFT A LOT OF MONEY IT SHOULD AT LEAST BE WORTHED.
    SO GIVE US WHAT WE WANT. ABOUT 5 BILLION OF US SPEAK NOT ENGLISH FAIRLY WELL, EVEN IF WE WISH TO PASS ENGLISH AND OUR LANGUAGES KINDERGARTEN ON, BEHIND 10 OR 20 OR 100 TIMES A DAY, AS WE CAN HAVE THE NEED OF THE DO.  We cannot simply install and uninstall some language pack 10, 20 or 100 times a day else we will not be able to do anything except waste our valuable time.  SO GIVE US WANT WE WANT.
    PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE US.
    PEOPLE IGNORED USES PIRATE WINDOWS WINDOWS TOOK A COPY AND DISSEMINATE OR INSTALLED IN HUNDREEDS OF THOUSANDS OF COMPUTERS. It's in your best interest, not to ignore the poor who are familiar with the English people or foreigners, who believes that if they can't buy the windows with this option (to BE ABLE to SWITCH THE DISPLAY LANGUAGE BETWEEN ENGLISH AND THEIR OWN NATIVE WINDOWS WITH THE click OF A BUTTON AS MANY TIMES as THEY WISH every DAY) , then it is not worth to buy it at all, but not worth it from one computer to the other side even if it is illegal.  This is the case today in most of the countries of the Earth. There are more illegal copies of Windows 98 and 2000 in use abroad as any copy of Windows abroad, for this reason = IT does IS NOT WORTH the MONEY WITHOUT THE SWITCHING "ONE click" of ENGLISH FOR FOREIGNERS AND BACK AND FORTH.
    You want to address this problem through the introduction of Windows 7 Ultimate, where you can change the language with the click of a button and worth to have the original of these windows, not you?
    -I would like to personally, otherwise I won't be wasting my time of Magor write you about the need to switch Windows language display to be made possible by a click of a button.
    IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT BILLIONS OF PEOPLE OVERSEAS WITH SUCH NEED AND DESIRE, THEN AT LEAST TO RESPOND TO A FEW HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF FANS OF MULTI LINGUIST OR - SPEAKERS MULTILINGUAL; AND DO YOUR MATH BY MULTIPLYING THIS NUMBER WITH $250 BY THE NEW COPY OF WINDOWS SOLD. (IT HAS TO DO WITH BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN ANNUAL PROFITS). THIS MUST SURELY BE A VERY NICE HIKE IN PROFIT AND IN THE SHARES OF MICROSOFT.  BUT IF YOU WANT TO BE A LOSER OR A SABOTEUR FROM MICROSOFT, THEN GO AHEAD, CONTINUE TO IGNORE THE UNITED STATES AND OUR NEED. MANY OF MY FRIENDS BELIEVES THAT MICROSOFT MINDS AS CLEAR AS THEY ARE, don't ARE STILL NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH to MAKE POSSIBLE TEL NEED AVAILABLE - that is to say: to make possible the switch of the Windows display language from English to another major foreign language with a simple click on a button for us to be able to do is as many times a day as you could want.
    I tell my friends that they are wrong and that you can sell these windows.
    My second question is: ARE they HAVE RIGHT?  OR AM I RIGHT?   WHATEVER THEY ARE, JUST PLEASE GIVE ME ANSWERS TO MY QUESTIONS AND DID NOT GIVE ME ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS I NEVER ASKED. PLEASE, I BEG YOU.
    AND THIS MESSAGE IN ITS ENTIRETY TO BILL GATES (IF POSSIBLE) OR FOR CERTAIN EXECUTIVES OF MICROSOFT RESPONSIBLE AND WISE MAN WHO COULD AND ADDRESSES THESE ISSUES.   IF YOU WANT OUR MONEY OUTSIDE CANADA, PARTICULARLY OUR EUROS, THEN TO GIVE US WHAT WE WANT.
    A FRIEND far AWAY WHO JUST SEE WHAT I AM WRITING TO YOU, SAID: "IF THEY are not, THEN THE _ WITH ALL THEIR NEW WINDOWS BECAUSE WE're NOT GOING to BUY EVERYTHING FOR THE NEXT YEARS of 1O if IL VA y BEING MORE UPDATES OF OUR XP is or NOT."
    About me... maybe I'll stick with my XP for ten years but I could probably use it for the next seven years UNLESS I could buy a copy of the window earlier that allows the windows display language can be maneuvered with a single click of a button between English and French and in Spanish as many times as I wish every day and will without wasting my time to install and uninstall packages of language or reinstall the windows and all other programs I have installed in my computer again and again.
    Well, I hope you could help me with some concrete answers to my questions and good advice about this. IF you do not have available answers to our needs in the "Windows 7 Ultimate" then we should just waith for the next Windows coming after 7 Ultimate WITH the HOPE that you will take care of the major needs in the Windows thereafter, that follows after Windows 7 Ultimate.  Thank you for your time and I'LL WAIT for a RESPONSE FROM YOU.

    Hello danobadiah,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    I merged your nine positions in your last message as they treat everyone the same questions. You had your questions answered several different people in order to help answer your question. The answer to your question, "Windows 7" has a button by which we could change with a single click, the display of the windows in the computer language is 'no '. There's not a single button to make such a change in the display language in the way you described. Persons responding gave you the common way to the Windows 7 operating system works by changing from English to another language. We are not the developers in this forum and do not know if your desire to have a one button click on any major foreign language switch from English is a possibility.

    This is not the right forum to ask your question on a design change. If you want to offer developers a way to change the Windows 7 operating system, and then publish the Web site so that you can give your comments in future versions of the operating system.
