    How do you solve the problem when you get "There is an IP address conflict"?

    How can someone else have a computer with the same IP address?  Is this possible?  How do you get them?  Thank you

    I recvd a phone call yesterday telling me I had a computer at risk with the help of the same IP address or ID in China.  I thought it was a hoax.  They said they came from Microsoft, but when I tried to recall today, there was a message stating that the Group was not available.  Then I get on my computer and get the label "there is an IP address conflict" and I panic, what happens if someone in China is using my computer?  How can I stop this?  I ran antivirus and anything analyses.    Help, please?

    To resolve IP conflicts restart all computers, peripheral and the router at the same time.  Chances are it will fix

    Microsoft (or any other reliable service)'ll never call you cold.  They have no idea if your computer is in danger, a virus or anything else.  Calls are cold almost always a scam.

    If you use a perpetual Photoshop and formatted your disc version of starting without disabling your activation of Photoshop, you also Adobe supports help you activate Photoshop once you retrieve your serial number.  The startup disk formatting would destroy that credential of Activation Photoshop machine which is registered in the database of the Adobe activation server. Which reduces the activation numbers you have to use.  If you have Photoshop installed on a second computer that means that you have no free activation available as well, even with your key you can't activated the machine.

  • I have replaced my hd, reinstalled the operating system, but you forgot to activate vista. How can I solve the problem?

    After that my hd, I decided to replace it as well as reinstall Vista Home Basic using the system recovery disk, that I bought at HP in 2007. My laptop is a pavilion dv6000 with Vista 32 bit.

    Unfortunately I didn't, I had to turn my copy of vista on my pc within 30 days, since I got my pc sometimes without incurring in this issue. I tried to insert the cd in the back of my pc key, but to understand that no longer works, so I tried with the new cd key of my drive to restore but that no longer works.

  • How can I solve the problem of slow computer or what nested steps I need to take more things that I mention below to slow computer speed?

    Hello

    I know that for your computer to start faster, you can disable in msconfig certain applications or auto-start services

    I also know that to make your computer faster to do a virtual and half larger than the memory size, more you will need to start it and the value of the same size virtual memory, for example start value 3000 end value3000.

    I know also some malicious spyware can slow down your computer.

    In addition, you can add more memory to mke your computer more fast, your drive hard must be empty of 25%.

    In addition to these things I mentioned before nested thing wat do I check to solve the problem of slow computer?

    can you give me some?

    Thank you

    The size of the virtual memory required will depend on the type of requests and is influenced by the installed physical memory. The 1.5 times value really applies to computers with a limited amount of ram and the use of virtual will decrease with an increase in physical (but remove never virtual memory altogether) while Shawn says investigate fitting over RAM.

    Setting the pagefile identical to max and min values will reduce fragmentation but was so moving to a less actively used by car.

    The largest suites 'internet security' may have much more impact than the plain simple AV (that's why I use MSE).

    By far the biggest kick in performance should be move to the SSD, it reduces by half my boot time.

    If a desktop computer fits a discreet graphics card, she discharge the graphic CPU and restores memory used.

    As well as Msconfig, check the contents of the process in the Task Manager tab. Most will be perfectly legitimate, but you can identify the odd thief of uninstalled programs.

    NOT tempted by claims of speed countless programs available. Rarely, they make a significant difference and can do serious damage.

    I would like to change my HDD without having to buy a new Windows operating system. And I'm not sure if it is possible or not.

    The motherboard is not defective, correct?  If you override to 'improve' the unit and the original motherboard is not defective, then, Yes, you will need to purchase a new license.  You've essentially created a new machine.

    In this case, you will need to purchase a new license.

    Since the motherboard contains the processor and is "the heart and soul" of the PC, then replacement of the motherboard (for other reasons than to default) a new PC is essentially created. The system integrator original manufactured not this new PC and cannot therefore be expected to support it.

    In this case, you can use the original license:

    If the motherboard is replaced because it is defective, you do not need to purchase a new license of PC operating system as long as the replacement motherboard is the same make and model or equivalent/replacement by the manufacturer, as defined by the manufacturer warranty of.
