How do you determine if a Vista COA is SLP before replacing a damaged motherboard?

I have a small construction company and PC repair.

I have a PC for a customer (eMachines E4252) which is not the usual way of eMachines. Bestec PSU blowing from the motherboard. The original motherboard (is no longer available) and power supply are to be replaced by another.

How will I know if the Vista COA is BIOS locked to the damaged motherboard until I'm starting work, changing technology?
I have no time to lose if the customer will have to pay to get a new copy of Windows, because it will then do the job economically not viable for them.
Say there is no way to do this is an unacceptable response, because in software programming just about anything is possible if the programmer codes it so.
I have already spent a lot of time looking for it and as I said, I have no time to lose.

Please can someone help,
Kind regards

Buna,

Being an eMachine, it would be an OEM license, which means that the preinstalled Windows operating system is locked on the first hardware that is installed on...

Microsoft considers the motherboard towards the heart of the computer.

You want to replace this motherboard with another model of motherboard, which means that the re-Activation will fail.

You should be in contact with Acer who now owns the eMachine brand and explain all the non-existent replacement for the original motherboard and request their assistance.

Revedere.

    Will be APSB15-27 will install automatically if flash is set to automatic update?  How do you determine if it's installed?

    Hello

    Yes, if the Flash is set to the automatic update, then the system automatically update to the latest version, 19.0.0.226.  There are several ways to determine if the system is updated:

    Windows:

    • Check the version number in the files saved to:

      • C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
      • C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    • In the registry:
      • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayer > CurrentVersion

        • But if you have more than one browser, you can check the version of each type of player:

          • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerActiveX > Version
          • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerPepper > Version
          • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\FlashPlayerPluginReleaseType > Version
      • If you have the 64-bit operating system, you will want to check the Wow6432Node corresponding node as well (although the installed version should be the same for both 32-bit versions and 64-bit)

    OS X:

    • NPAPI plugin: / Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin/Contents/Info.plist > CFBundleVersion

    Once you create the maps, you must create (or modify) the layout with mapping rules. Mapping in the layout rules determine which cards are used for page layouts. Here are a few resources:

  • How can you determine the absolute path to a NetStream object created dynamically?

    We strive to implement a video captioning with a freeware component, ccforflash. This requires us to provide an absolute path or relative to our NetStream. How can we determine this path in Flash CS5 AS3?

    CCforFlashCS5 documentation:

    2. objects "name and path.

    Type the name and the path.  It is the name of the instance of the object with which CCforFlashAS3 will synchronize. It must be spelled correctly, since CCforFlashAS3 queries the object with this name for the synchronization information to synchronize subtitles. The path must also be included; be compared to the CCforFlashAS3 (i.e. this.parent) component or the absolute path of the main floor of the film (root)".

    I guess I understand your problem and accepts only a great way to identify a path to something compared to doing AS3 AS2.  I'll see if I can raise the interest of someone else in your ad that is a detective better than me.

    But if I can get stoopid for one minute and suggest trying something (I would try it)... If you have access to the code where is instantiated the NetStream object, just after he is given life, assign the instance to a variable, you have in the main timeline and use this variable (and the root timeline or a 'this' - reference database for path requirement) for your CCforFlashCS5 needs.

    Vista Media recovery obtaining and/or using the Vista recovery on your computer Partition to factory settings .

    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.

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

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

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

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    This can be achieved using some dynamic measurements, to hide the region if the calendar is the display month view when loading the page and to show/hide the region when you click the list/month selector.

    Add a static region ID to region calendar for use in jQuery selectors.

  • How do you determine the activations how I left on an installation of windows xp home edition

    I have a pc I erased some viruses and malware, but seems to have a corrupted registry. I reinstalled Windows XP Home Edition several times with the cd that I bought at the store a few years back. It was my understanding I could install this particular cd not more than 5 times for a single pc. Over the years I've lost track of the way that many times I reinstalled and reactivated this facility. What should I do to see how many activations I left before I reformat and reinstall with this cd and find out that I don't have a working after all installation?

    There is no limit to the number of times you can activate a retail Windows XP version as long as it is only to be installed/reinstalled on one computer.  However, the relocations within a relatively short time may ask you to activate Windows XP by phone.
