• My hard drive has left an old system to a new system and now I can not activate Windows.

  Cannot download the drivers to activate Windows

  I spent two days now trying to get a computer at work, I've built. I use new parts other than my used hard drive previously. I was not able to install the drivers for my network so I'm stuck right with the activation screen when I connect. If I do not activate and then I get kicked out and have to log in again. I cannot connect to the network to turn on obviouly and when I call them they say my ID intillation in does not correct and they don't recognize it as a valid product. I then remove my hard drive and put it back in the old machine and as if by magic, it works fine after activation. How am I supposed to install my drivers so I can activate if I can't go to my screen to install? This is the second time that this happens, and I really not prefer to buy a new windows disk for something that already works.

  activation by telephone (call of the operator)
  Click the Start button
  in the search box, type
  SLUI 4
  and press the Enter key
  Follow the instructions, but when asked what service you need the ansafone phone, don't answer - it should oblige the operator to answer, who can deal with you

  To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag tool

  Once saved, run the tool.

• My hard drive is damaged. I got a new hard drive and now I want to reinstall Windows. Can I use my existing product key?

  original title: my hard sucks

  my hard is damaged in some portion.can, I changed the new hard drive and reinstall Windows vista with the existing product key?

  Hello

  Yes, you can reinstall vista with your product key on the new hard drive

  Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista

• Recently, I built a new computer and used my old hard drive. Now, I can't activate Windows XP via internet or telephone?

  Hello

  I recently built a new computer with a new motherboard, processor and RAM.  The computer works well, but I can't go through the activation of Windows XP.  I tried connecting via internet, and he said that I didn't have a connection, which I know that I do because I can connect to the internet on my motherboard cloud browser.  I tried to call the number that was given, but the computer says that it is not a valid product.  I know that my copy of Windows XP is valid - in my old system, it worked fine.

  Please help me to activate my version of Windows XP.

  If the old version of Windows XP is installed on the computer when you bought it, you invalidated the license by moving the hard drive to a new system.  This license lives and dies on the parent computer/card origin.  If it was a copy of the (bought in a store) retail of Windows, I'd recommend replace because move one disk hard from one computer to the other, sometimes translated as difficult solve incompatibilities due to driver problems.

• Old computer is dead, HARD drive still alive. Can I install windows 7 on your new computer without formatting the old HARD drive?

  My old desktop computer recently died of a motherboard failure.  As I understand it, I should be able to install windows 7 from my old computer to the new, but only if I delete the old installation.

  Does this mean that I have to format the old HARD drive?  Because the old computer HARD drive seems to be alive, I would retrieve the data on a new machine first, before I have to format and I need to install windows on the new computer to get the data from the old HARD drive.

  No, it is taken on trust that the old installation is no longer active, there is no mechanism to remove the old license in order to make a valid new. Remove the Windows directory (or rename) makes the old system inoperative.

  You find that the automatic authentication fails on new construction and need to call the licensing Center to check that you have only one installation. Apart from the OEM rules if a license has been activated too often, and recently, it fails in a 1 time.

  * O.T. > encrypted files

  So after encryption of files I had to reinstall my windows (changed the name of the owner) and now I can not decrypt the file

  After attempting to decrypt the files, I'm promped with this message:

  Attribute application error

  An error occurred applying attributes to the file:

  Access is denied. \

  I want to say that I added my administrator name in the Security tab, and then gave me full control over the files, but that did not work.

  Hello

  I understand that you cannot decrypt files previously encrypted in Windows 7 after you have reinstalled Windows.

  • What program did you use to encrypt the files?

  From now on, I would ask you to refer to similar questions discussed in the thread below links and check the status.

  I'm unable to decrypt files encrypted after reformatting the hard drive.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

• I reformatted my hard drive, but now I can't get my startup disk to run. It is damaged!

  I reformatted my hard drive, but now I can't get my disc to run.it departure is damaged!

  original title: help!

  Hello

  Plenty of detail? Or it came with your system - OEM? OEM, you should consult the manufacturer of your system.

  Find a friend with one that you can copy that works if you can. (see note below)

  If you have your product key you can use DVD a friend if it is the same OEM version if not the
  retail version - also needs to be same 32 or 64 bits. You can legally copy DVDs as long as
  you use your own product code. As the creator of the system will sell you another copy of the DVD
  cheap since you already have windows. So if you have an OEM version, you can copy a friend
  DVD if it's the same OEM version and if you have a retail version, you can copy the retail a friend
  DVD - in both cases, you should use your own product key.

  Note:
  (To use a copy of an OEM drive, it must be for the same brand and computer model - more
  OEM uses the same disc on a small series of models and it must be in the same
  limited if not exactly the same model.)
