(ps. There may be typos. I use google translator)

Hello

If you upgraded to Windows 7 and that you format your HDD you have Vista.
Only, you keep your Windows 7 If you install from the DVD.

  • Why the default format window opens in the new documents open in Pages 5.6.1?

    Someone else asked this before, but it is with an older version of Pages, and it's a few years, so I thought I'd make a new discussion.

    Everytime I open a new document in Pages (version 5.6.1 on OS 10.11.2, on a 13 "Macbook Pro of 2009), the formatting window is open. It's ugly and I do not want to use immediately. What is the default? Like other posters, I tried to create a model that does not do that, but even at the opening with the model, it opens but each time. As in the other poster said: this is not a terrible amount of work, but it is very annoying to do all the time. This has happened for years. A word about the recent patches?

    Not and unlikely he's going to change.

  • Gettinng less updates to Windows Update after formatting Windows

    Original title: problem with Windows Update after PC format

    Hello, I have Windows 7 x 64 OEM and today I had to format 6 times my PC because of my graphics card.

    Problem which is the 5th time that I formatted my PC, WU shows me less up to date than the first time. And in format 6, least of all day.

    How can I solve this problem? Thnaks.

    Hi Josele69,

    Whenever you install a new update, it contains the updates released before. If you will get only the recent updates. When you run windows update, you also receive only for new updates when you're done with the updates offered. This might be a reason you found less updates after formatting windows.

    Hello

    I have a PC with operating system Windows 8.1. I want to install Windows 10.

    I usually format my computer and I would like to know if after you have installed Windows 10, if I go to format it, I'll have to REINSTALL Windows 10 too and if it will remain free for me. Or if, once installed Windows 10, it will be written permanently into the my PC recovery partition so that it will be available automatically whenever I have format.

    Thank you

    Hi @Winged_Cat,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook and concerns if you have to reformat your laptop after or later. Yes. Once you have upgraded to Windows 10 using the free upgrade offer, you will be able to reinstall, including a clean install on the same device. You will not have a product key for re-updates on the same hardware. If you make a significant change to your hardware, you may need to contact customer support for help with activation. You will also be able to create your own installation media, such as a Flash DRIVE or a DVD and use it to update your device and reinstall once you have upgraded.

    Pulled from Microsoft pages click here to see the options of relocation.

    I hope this helps you understand the upgrade.

    Thank you.

  • How can I have my default server (ATT) e-mail format, windows XP (which I want to keep as a default), replace the Outlook Express window when I'm tryin for a company whose I am the web site e-mail browzing?

    Currently, when I'm browzeing a website and click on their email option to write, I always get the format of Outlook Express. I have it fill my msg, click on send - he's trying to send but don't market not to go. I just get a msg of error that server is not found.

    According to Bruce, you get to make it appear the webmail interface to the AT & T mail server.  To work around the problem, you can either a configuration for AT & T account in OE under Tools | Accounts | Add | By mail, or if you want to do, when he evokes the new OE message by clicking on the mailto link, then just copy the e-mail address in the window of the EO, close it and compose a new message and paste this link into the email field.

    Webmail is not configured to be able to handle mailto links.  This is why they have separate e-mail programs.

  • Why will not post any kind of video format Windows Movie Maker?

    I have a video project together over but when I click 'save to computer' and go through it, he starts to publish but stick to 1% or 2%. I tried just to publish a still image (JPEG) that works. I added a voice on the video image, published again very well. Then added an mp3 which is used throughout the project, which publishes perfectly too. Add a video file, however, freezes it. I tried to break the project down into third to check that it is not "too complex" that didn't work and now even in the sixth that don't work as.
    I tried using videos MP4, AVI and WMV, but nothing to do with a video clip will release.

    I am running vista and movie maker 2.6.
    (And ive also tried to put the project on a Win7 computer and who publishes but the same file wont open (all files component also transferred to 2nd pc))

    I am incredibly frustrated with this now so please, any help would be appreciated!

    I was wondering why you are running Movie Maker 2.6?
    Do you have Vista Movie Maker 6 enforcement issues?

    What is the duration of the project? Long and complex projects
    can be problematic. More short projects (as you have already discovered)
    are generally more successful.

    MP3 files can be problematic... conversion. WMA peut
    be worth a try.

    The. WMV video format is the best choice, and you already
    tried that... but the question is how to convert you?

    Also... it may be useful if you open Movie Maker and go to... Tools /.
    Options / Compatibility tab and disable all filters / OK.
    Or... to... Tools / Options / tab compatibility and left click
    button to restore all default settings.

    There are to many converters available on the net...

  • Problem of formatting windows vista edition upgrade Home premium

    A few years ago I bought a pc custom made and also bought a version ledgit of windows xp media Center, with this, I also received a free uprade for windows vista home edition premium, I gave it some time before moving to vista (because of all the initial problems that vista had when he was releaeased).

    But now I have vista on my pc is for a year or two irratically running at least, so I desperately need to format my pc, I have read in various articles that once you upgrade to vista xp your original key to become obsolete, surely this cannot be the case, I paid full price for the Media Center program , and if indeed this is the case how do I clean my pc and reinstall vista on it.

    Thanks in advance for any response to my dilemma

    bigsi69

    This is your key to your XP license.

    You can wipe the computer and reinstall.

    It now part of the process to upgrade and stop install you on another computer.

    But you can use it to reinstall > then go back to Vista.

    If you have any problems, just call Microsoft and explain what you are doing.

    See you soon.

  • HP envy 6 formatted windows 7 family base and not able to install windows 7 ultimate

    my laptop is hp envy6 1011tu. and it came with windows 7 home basic.i due to format the laptop because the very slow process. first of all I tried to do the recovery of the system with hp support assistant, but the option was not functional for some reason any. then I made a support recovery, but even in this laptop case started normally, nothing happened. Then, I made a bootable iso image of windows 7 ultimate power with usb and formatted the laptop. but when the installation was complete, it displays error, saying cannot complete the installation because of hardware bundles. reboot to reinstall windows. and then I did it again, but once again the same result.  After that I tried to install win 7 home base using the recovery disk, but it displays error because of recent hardware and software changes could not complete the operation. I even tried to install ubuntu using the bootable usb key, but its saying no OS not detected in the inserted disc.

    Please help, what to do next. the product is under warranty. I bought it last October.

    Hello

    In this case, I would say try the SP1 version because it contains more hardware drivers - the link below for Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit (the source is Digital River).
