You can not downgrade. For XP, you must install XP properly.
 
When you perform a clean install, it will begin by formatting the
by car, then you can get rid of everything, including Vista.

    If you had not reinstalled Vista, we helped you recover the product key of Vista for running old, Vista activated using specific programs.

    But, as you have wiped the hard and reinstall Vista, we will not help you recover the product key.

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

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

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

    Using recovery disks is normally not need to insert a product key.

  • How to get rid of Windows 8 and replace it with Windows 7

    I bought my HP Pavilion laptop G6 in December 2012, when all the they had was Windows 8 machines.  So I thought I would give it a try.  Well, I have 8 months now and I still hate Windows 8 .  I want to replace it with Windows 7, the latest stable known operating system launched by Microsoft.  But I heard that recent material doesn't have even a device to support Win7 drivers.

    Is there something I can do?

    Thank you

    -ken

    Hi Ken,

    There is no reason that you should not be able to install and run Windows 7 on your laptop.

    While it is true that HP provide no Windows 7 drivers for machines shipped with Windows 8, you should always be able to find all the relevant Win 7 drivers, you will need.

    What is the complete model number and your notebook series g6 Nr? -See here for a guide to the location of such information.

  • How can I re - install Windows Vista without the media?

    machine will not start in vista

    I have a gateway W34DUA with windows vista it will not load vista how do you get the thing to reinstall without a disk I'm thinking it was pre loaded

    or can I get a disc and use the product key from the back and reinstall?

    Hello

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    "Full factory recovery"

    http://support.gateway.com/s/software/Microsof/Vista/7515418/7515418su531.shtml

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • How can I restore my desktop icons and the taskbar icons

    I tried to open a file with a program's .lnk and her was not recognized in the program, and now my desktop icons and my icons to the taskbar was converted into icons for the program. How to get this back? I need to know how to do this in Windows 7.

    [Moved from comments]

    There are some patches for the issue that you siding, but most of them requires registry changes that I do not say that they can cause several other problems. I recommend that you perform a system restore.

    There are two ways to perform the system restore:

    Menu start open, click Run and type cmd to open the command prompt.

    Type CD... to book only c:\.

    Type windows CD then CD System32, and then restore.

    After once, you'll find yourself in c:\ windows\system32\restore >

    Type restrui.exe press ENTER.

    Once the system restore the open window then click on next to select any available restore point.

    This process takes a few minutes to do the restore and please make sure that once this process has begun there wont be reversible and or you will lose all personal data.

    Another way to perform the system restore is to open the safe mode by clicking on F8 at startup and check the option of safe mode, then still a dialog box opens to ask the system restore and then follow the steps above.

  • How can I change my artists contributing and the title of my music files

    Hello, some of my music has incorrect artists and titles in its properties, I was wondering how I could change them by typing in the most appropriate? Thank you

    HI - regarding the Michel which is not the best way to do it, especially if you use Windows Media Player. Change the information in the Windows Media Library as shown in the screenshot below - highlight and right click and you should get the option 'Edit' for the relevant column. (Modification of information in the library 'explorer' can break the bond of WMP so the change should be made in the library of WMP or alternatively to the location of the original file)

    You can highlight the right click and change in the fields in yellow... (and also change the album art if necessary, by selecting a new jpeg image, by clicking on "copy" and you will then get the option "Paste" when you click on the existing image... Note, you will not see 'stick' after clicking 'copy'!) Hope this helps - R

  • How can I fnd my claim code and the reprint of the web services information sheet

    Hi, I have a HP Deskjet 3520 and try to put in place the eprint.  I read the suggestions on the forum and the FAQ but I can't locate the web services information sheet I need to reprint for claim code.

    Could not find anything under Printer Control Panel either. Please advise!

    Thank you!!

    Hi Chris88,

    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I appreciate that you try to configure the ePrint on your Deskjet 3520 printer feature.

    If you have the inkjet printer Deskjet 3520 with a C8994 product number this printer does not have the ePrint service.  The Deskjet 3520 printer only has USB connection and ePrint to function the printer must have an independent internet connection through a wireless or a wired ethernet network.  I've included the specifications of the printer for your reference.

    If you have the e-all-in-one printer Deskjet 3520 then we obtain the claim code.  You can request the information sheet of web services from the front panel of the printer, and there the claim code printed in blue. Instructions on how to get it can be found in the section titled "to print a document using ePrint' in your on page 15 user's guide.  Please follow the instructions in step 1.

  • How can I display a shared document and the updated reliably.

    We are currently using Excel with "share workbook" enabled to view a document on several bulletin boards. However the "update changes" setting for automatic every 5 minutes just doesn't seem to work reliably. It seems worse now since we have updated for Windows 7 and Office 2013. All workstations share the document on bulletin boards are on our network.

    Let's try the parameter "update changes" to "when the file is saved", but I don't have much faith it will work more. But let's give it a try.

    Does anyone know of an application, we can use to replace this current set upwards or know what settings might help with the functionality of file sharing?

    Links should update automatically.  When you type in a box on a single computer, your other computer (if it's the web browser opens on the same page) should show these letters are typed instantly.  And that's just fine if you use the same username on both computers.

    As for who he control shows on, you can just take your browser tab and then drag on the next screen, or even pass the browser full screen (F11 key), so it is just a spreadsheet in full screen.
