How to reinstall Windows XP on a Dell computer used, I can not past the log-in, that I do not know the password.
A Dell computer has been passed down to me and there is no way to learn the password that I need to start. Is it possible to get after that without having to destroy the entire system? I have a Windows XP reinstallation cd. I could use it and if so, how?
If the PC is used, you SHOULD wipe everything! If you liquidate accepting, this page should be useful:

How to reinstall windows 8 in new HARD drive using the old product key?
Mr President.
One of my clients purchased a new HP Envy 6 - 1150ex running integrated windows 8 64-bit a month ago. Unfortunately the HARD drive broke down by the improper use and must be replaced. I replaced the HARD drive, but I can't find the product key original of the laptop unless you have small windows on the laptop sticker. given that I don't have the recovery for the same model disk how can I install the genuine windows 8 manually by using the product key? where can I find the product key? Please help me.
Kind regards
Yoyo
Hello
Should be no problem at all if you use the version of Windows 8 EVEN because the product key is now embedded in the BIOS of the machine. The process is to get the right installation of Windows 8 media (DVD, USB, downloaded file) and then install on your client computer. No label/sticker more for all new machines with Windows pre-installed 8.
Please see the following link for more information.

I recently reinstalled windows xp on my dads pc, and I can't get the sound to work
IM hard to get the sound to work on my dads pc. I reinstalled windows xp after a virus wiped out, and when I go to the Device Manager, all audio drivers are listed. They all work correctly according to the Manager of devices, but under "other devices", there are several things that are listed with icons of yellow question mark next to them. IM wondering if maybe the problem with these "other devices", rather than the sound itself.
try to update the drivers on the yellow icons, double-click on the "peripheral" and discover the status of driver.

If you want to install Windows 98 and you don't have it, you can buy a copy. You can only buy used copies these days, but if you can find one, it must be very cheap.

Reinstalling Windows XP on a Dell Optiplex 760
Nice day
I reinstall Windows XP on a Dell Optiplex 760.The system came preloaded with it, even if the certificate of authenticity (COA) indicates has a license for Windows Vista professional.I'm reinstalling provided factory recovery disc.My question is, what to do when it comes to enter a product key? Of course the key to Windows Vista Business will not work. There is none on the system or on the cover of the CD.Well, I found the answer, it does not require a product key.

reinstalled Windows Vista on a HP computer with a Dell reinstallation DVD.
I have already downloaded all the HP software & drivers that I need to make it work like a HP., everything seems normal & tact except in the reception centre where it tells you all the details of your computer, it said its production is Dell & must say HP. The product key on the side of my computer is of course for a HP. Until it is recognized as a HP & not a Dell, I can't activate my windows with this product key.
* original title - I reinstalled Windows Vista on a HP computer with a Dell reinstallation DVD. Now, I can't activate Windows because my product key will not work. *
You'll have to contact HP and see if you can get a set of restore from HP for your system disks, you will not be able to activate the copy of Dell's Windows with a key to HP.

I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell inspiron one 19 desktop... your help will be very appreciated thanks in advance!
Here are the usual methods to solve this problem:
- Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
- Logging in as a different admin account and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if create you an alternative admin account).
- Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you have activated the account administrator and know its password).
- Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have created such a keyfile).
- Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
If none of these standard precautions work for you, then the remedy will be painful. Post again if this is the case.
