• How can I remove Vista and replace it with XP on a Dell laptop without losing my partition to factory?

  Vista has conflicts and no current update on my laptop and the mouse keyboard, so it is erratically. Since an upgrade of Vista has been added to my laptop, it has been in place. The cursor seems to have a mind of its own and I can't change the mouse settings. There is not an update to Vista since the device mouse or keyboard. After countless hours of lost looking for a solution, I decided to give up the garbage of Vista and I refuse to pay more money for the upgrade to Windows 7. So I want to go back to XP, but I can not install XP with the installation disc that came with the laptop. It stops the installation and tells me that I have a newer version of Windows. What I read, I have to do a clean install, but I want to do, so I do not lose the hidden partition that has been installed by Dell. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've used Windows years but this abortion of Vista is too heavy for me. And it's like cancer, I can't seem to get rid of it! Time to think about a Mac soon, I guess.

  A clean install will go to the C:\ drive and does not affect your partition recovery disk D:\ (as long as you tell him installed on C:\ assuming the disk that is the drive of the current system and disk D:\ is the recovery disc).  Note that, with a clean install you will lose all your data (everything on the partition - not everything on the disc if it has more than one partition) then you should backup your data first.

  Here is more information on the operation of a clean install: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/winvista_install_03.asp.

  Frankly, I would transfer this question in Forum Windows Update: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/threads where the people who specialize in Windows Update issues will be more than happy to help you with your problem.  Perhaps, it can be fixed without the need to resort to the downgrading to XP (and these people would be able to help as best as we).

  Keep in mind that Mac have their own set of problems - different from Windows, but they are not without problems (and you probably have some software that works with Windows and it would be a shame to lose that).  You just need to help solve your problem (or, if you wish, to return to XP which is probably more stable than Vista).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

• 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

  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.

  Kind regards

• How can I remove linux and reinstall windows 8.1?

  Hello. I recently installed a distribution linux (OS elementary, Luna) on my HP Pavilion g6. My pc is preinstalled with Windows 8. I decided to evaluate linux and installed on my computer. I was not paying attention when installing and apparently replaced Windows 8. My question is, how do I get it back? I am a person without any repair records and don't have anyway make one (since I am just a computer nerd aged 15 years). I heard that HP computers have a bios recovery console, but if that's true how to reach it?

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  For this reason, you will not be able to use the Windows 8 disc retail to activate the license incorporated, it does not recognize. That's why you need HP recovery media, otherwise you will end up having to buy a new license.

  How can I install xp on my laptop with xp disc? I gave her family having installed Melissa on it and came back and need xp back on it. I have the key for xp of origin. I prefer not to pay for it again. Thank you.

  It is possible that the recovery partition "can" still be fuctional if Linux has not deleted it. Check the manual of the owner on how to start and start (press key during the initial boot process) the process of recovery. If this does not work then contact the manufacturing of the laptop and see if they can still provide you with recovery media.

• How to disable apple git and replace it with another?

  Hello forum,.

  I'm new to OSX, and I need to use git. and also, due to security risks, I have to avoid to save my password for the account of git on local computer

  Of course under windows and linux, there is no problem. but under OSX, I could never imagine that it may be more difficult that way.

  the git command that provided the default is 'apple-modified version of git.

  I do not understand why apple did, but anyway, there at - there no guide for DISABLE the PRESENT?

  Thank you.

  Confirm that you still have the product key Windows 8 or 8.1 embedded by installation and execution of ProduKey then look for the key BIOS OEM Windows 8/8.1, which is how it should be recognized if still on the chip.

  If so, you are good at 8.1 of Windows Installer Clean after step 4 Special workaround to install Windows 8.1 with a key of 8 window.

  However, in the same time, you can get the best of the best OS installation by making a Clean 10 of Windows Installer and activate with the digital entitlement already assigned if you upgraded in - place and active or directly by using the product key of WIndows 8 to activate after installing.

• How to uninstall El Capitan and replaces it with clone of Snow Leopard?

  I had a chance terrible execution El Capitan, including in connection with CS5. It takes (literally) 10 x more time to save a .tiff file in El Capitan, than that of Snow Leopard. I suspect much too many processes running in the background, which most is probably not necessary, but I don't know that for sure. Something is not.

  I have a clone perfect my Snow Leopard former plant and wonder if that can just be installed right on El Capitan, as when we do an update of the operating system, or do I have to erase the whole score first, then install clone?

  (I know, I'll then have browser problems, but...)

  Thank you very much

  Hi CFS88,

  Thanks for joining the communities Support from Apple. I see your message you need to restore your operating system Snow Leopard of El Capitan. I'm happy to help you!

  To install Snow Leopard on your system, you will need to use a snow leopard install DVD or disc of original installation if your Mac comes with Snow Leopard originally. Once you insert the disc, press and hold the C button it restarts and restart your Mac. This will allow you to boot from the installation disc. From there, you can use disk utility to wipe your drive and reinstall OS X. Once installation is complete, you can choose your preferred option to migrate your data to your Mac using the installation wizard.

  If you use Time Machine, you can restore from a backup Time Machine with installed thus 10.6:
