  • Cannot download mode xp and virtual pc for windows 7

    My old laptop died.  A new one with win 7 pro.  Try to download windows xp mode and virtual pc.  Site bloody Web keeps telling me to download and run WindowsActivationUpdate.exe.  I do, and when I click on the button continue, he wants to download me the same bloody file.  Major circle jerk.  Any suggestions on how to get the microsoft Web site to stop wasting my time and give me the bloody files?  Also, about what support do you think that microsoft consider it a part of?

    Hello Unknown69,

    To be able to download the XP Mode and Virtual PC for Windows 7, first of all, it performs a validation check to verify that the version of Windows that you are using is genuine.

    If you download and allow it to check, once your computer is validated you will be able to download the files in XP Mode and Virtual PC.

    I hope this helps.

  • Windows updates will not download/install

    I have an Asus laptop that is about 2 years old.  I am running Windows 8 on a 64 bit system.  The laptop only periodically adjusts and downloads from previous update failed.  Now, when I start it tells me that there are 115 updates to download.  After leaving try and download these all day yesterday, he stopped, display of the progress bar on 99% c, but it will not go further.  I tried the upgrade to 8.1, but will not proceed until the updates are complete.  I had hoped that the 8.1 installation would simply replace previous updates that were needed - apparently not!

    I don't know what to do next - any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    [1] another option is probably just to let off Windows updates and continue to use it as it is.

    [2] of course, I'm protected by Norton...

    A1. Yes, if the computer will NEVER be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers).

    A2. I suspect your Norton application is not installed or working properly.

    Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  • Windows 8.0 it will continue to support the

    I have an old workstation HP with single Xeon 3.06 core 2 processors and 8 GB of ram with windows 8.0. It runs great. But the Upgrade Wizard indicates that my computer can not put because of my old processors. :-(

    I'm not buying a new computer right now so my question is will. Microsoft continues to support 8.0? I can't find an answer to this. If anyone knows and or has a link to the answer, I would be grateful.

    Thank you!

    "Windows 8 customers will have two years to move to Windows 8.1 after the general availability of the Windows updated 8.1 to continue to remain supported in the title of the lifecycle of Windows 8." That means Windows 8 support, at least for the version that launched a year ago, will officially end on 18 October 2015.

    If you decide to upgrade to Windows 8.1, Microsoft will continue to support the operating system under its support lifecycle main period of time, with standard support ending January 9, 2018 and extended support until January 10, 2023. In other words, there are very few things to avoid that anyone with a PC running Windows 8 download for Windows 8.1.

    Source: Microsoft

    Regarding why you can't upgrade to Windows 8.1, is indeed strange, you check the updates to the BIOS? Its possible it could be updates available that will support, especially if she can already run Windows 8. Workstation HP what model is?

    What version of Windows also brought originally preinstalled with or which version you put in?

    If its Vista you could restore that, since Vista will be supported until 2017 or Windows 7, which will be supported until 2020.
