Full windows reinstall required when changing the motherboard?

Hello, I have recently built a new custom PC (my first yay!) and I quickly realized that my motherboard was faulty. I'm sending it back for a replacement but I had already installed windows 7 with important files, I need on the partition primary drive. I'll have to perform a complete reinstallation of windows on my new motherboard before activation of windows, or it will go directly in activation? If I need to do the reinstall then what is the best method to back up all my files?

If you simply replace the motherboard, then you should be able to boot Windows 7 on it without problem.

Windows 7 license now installed an OEM license?

If this is the case, then it is not transferable to a new motherboard, but given the circumstances, you can try reactivate by phone:

How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
 
1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
 
(2) press the ENTER"" key.
 
(3) select your "country" in the list.
 
(4) choose the option "activate phone".
 
(5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
 
(6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.

  • Numbering plan of TMS actions required when changing the VCS

    Hi all

    I will be changing my exclusively H323 to SIP client only VCS dial plan. This will be done to activate the route through VCS - E and also prepare for the migration of their VC on CUCM endpoints at a later date. When I change the dial plan I'll change the end point URIs, aka Multiway and digital beaches assigned to scheduled meetings.

    Can you please help me understand what I need to do to make sure that:

    1. MSD directories are updated with new endpoint aliases; and
    2. Existing meetings are moved to the new number ranges

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    Telephone directories TMS should update automatically as long as they do not use a source directory manually.  You should see the telephone directory changes some time after you migrate the H323 to SIP endpoints points, depending on how often you have telephone directories to update.

    A regular conference will have to be updated to reflect the change dial plan, you can simply change the Protocol that uses H323 to SIP endpoint in the settings to connect to the Conference.

  • Should I reset the FPGA FFT when changing the input signal?

    Hello

    I have an application based FlexRIO where I do FFT on several incoming signals. The signals will be ranked so that I get first for example 4096 samples of Ch1 and Ch2 4096 samples, etc. This means that I don't have to do it in parallel of the FFT and I would like to reuse the implementation of FFT and windowing to reduce the use of resources.

    I intend using the VI Express followed by the Express VI of FFT window scaling

    http://zone.NI.com/reference/en-XX/help/371599J-01/lvfpga/fpga_scaled_window/

    http://zone.NI.com/reference/en-XX/help/371599J-01/lvfpga/fpga_fft/

    and I'll use them inside a SCTL.

    This figure comes from the section using the FFT and help illustrate the issue:

    There is a discount to zero terminal for the fenestration and the FFT VI.

    Are there internal registers in the windowing and FFT which force the image 1, image 2,... from the same signal or is it possible for the first entry in a framework of Ch1, the next frame belonging to Ch2, Ch3 gaze and so on and always get reliable results?

    Another way to ask the same question: if I have to reset the window and FFT when changing the input signal?

    Thank you

    Anders

    Hi Cyphish,

    When using the FFT of the LabVIEW FPGA vi express and windows nationwide express vi calculations are make it point by point so there will be no problem when going through different types of measures. Therefore, you should have no problem with your application.

    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:

    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.

    Kind regards

    If you are able to disable the software before you change the motherboard, you are less likely to have a minor problem, but in General, you should not have problems.  Deactivation of free activation being used for another use.  Your license allows you to have two facilities activated, in order to always have one available if you have never used the two yet.
