• Family Windows Vista Edition authentication failure

  Hello! and happy Thanksgiving! I want to donate my old Dell Dimension 2350 desktop Pc to my sister. His computer is bad and the repair shop gave an estimate of $ 250.00 to repair it. I used the my other Dell Resource CD to deliver Windows Vista Home Edition on my old Dell. The hard drive was not good so I had to replace it, when I put the new CD of Windows resources on the new hard drive, I lost the hidden partition for dell to make resettlement programs to run. Now everything works great and I try to activate Windows Vista Home using the number on the COA sticker, now windows says that the number is wrong. I try to click on change activation code number and Internet Explorer starts, but they want a different number. I can't get this to work. I don't want to do any kind of hacks or illegal work, I want to give to my sister's computer before Christmas so she will be ready for the holidays. She lives in Cleveland, and we live in Toledo Ohio 43609-3330. I have to get everything set up because I am disabled and
  It is very difficult for me to travel to help with computer problems. Thank you!

• I have the basic family Windows Vista Edition key which is on the side of my computer but I can't reinstall it because I don't have an installation disc.

  OK, I got Windows Vista Home Basic on my computer and my hard drive crashed while I do not have the recovery partition. The key is always on the side of my computer. I wonder how I can get a basic Windows Vista Home Edition installation disc without having to purchase and any other key.

  You don't have to buy another license.

  How to get Vista recovery Media.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Legality of the basic family Windows Vista Edition installation of Windows 8

  I have an OEM version of Windows Vista Home Basic (legally bought). I can install it on one new PC (other than the one on which I installed for the first time) and upgrade to a legally purchased the retail of Windows 8. As far as I know, the OEM licenses are tied to the first PC where they are installed. So is it legal according to Microsoft to use to upgrade to Windows 8 on another PC.

  Any useful response will be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you very much.

  You can buy a copy OEM System Builder of Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro that look like copies of detail and includes the rights of transfer to a new computer or motherboard.

  In addition, you can buy recently 8.1 for Windows or Windows Pro 8.1 update retail copies which are actually full versions.

• Updates for windows xp edition version 2002 available family or not?

  My windows xp edition version 2002 family not updated? Microsoft site does not connect? In fact I bought an Acer laptop and with this windows recovery CD. Now, when he had some problems with windows, I used the same CD and recovered the windows, but when I connect to the internet and try to update windows, microsoft just Web site does not connect.

  I want to know:
  If the Service Pack 1 system is updated or not?
  If the update, how?

  You can use another computer if needed to download the latest service packs.  Usually, you just load the latest service pack, but in the case of XP, you must have at least service pack 1 installed before you can install Service Pack 3.  The following article gives links to where you can download all the service packs.  Download them on another computer if you don't connect with your computer and move / install them using a USB drive or burn them on a CD...

  If this does not work, then you will need to use the third-party program to accomplish this task.

  Important: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• Clean install of Windows Vista Edition family

  Due to a Virus, I had to perform a cold install of Windows Vista Edition family.  After completion and activation of the software, I received a message that my product is already in use.  It was a clean install on the same computer that has more than 3 years.

  Hello Steveowe,

  It's normal. To activate it, you use telephone activation. It's free in most countries. See this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/product_key_already_in_use.htm

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.
