  installation of Windows 7

  Hi, I am running Windows XP and I would like to install Windows 7 in order to play DVDs.  I pay for the upgrade?  I am not very computer, is - this easy to install so free.
  Thank you
  JO Smith

  First of all, you need not to install Windows 7 to play the DVD.  WinXP is perfectly capable of reading DVDs, as long as you have a DVD drive and the drivers appropriate devices and Codecs installed.

  Yes, if you want to upgrade to Windows 7, you will need to buy at least a license upgrade.  However, the "ease" of the upgrade process is relative, based almost entirely on your level of knowledge and skills.  In general, the process is fairly automatic: just observe the instructions on the screen.

  You should, before you continue, make sure that your computer is able to support Windows 7, and that the manufacturers of all connected devices (printer, scanner, webcam, etc.) have provided drivers for devices on Windows 7 for these items will continue to work.

• After disk hard crash, loaded Windows 7 and get "Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations.

  Original title: Windows Vista product key used for any new installation.

  I bought the upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows Vista CD, then had a hard drive crash, then installed a new hard drive. Load the purchased Windows 7 on new hard drive, now I get the message '... Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations. That means that I have to load Vista on the new hard drive, and then update? Both for the end user (paying customer) hostile.

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

• DVD how much we need for the files backup with backup and restore program?

  Hello how are you?
  DVD how much we need for the files backup with backup and restore program? Y at - it large differences in the time and space between write backups on DVD and external hard drive?

  I do not understand your question.  Asked how the space has been used on your C: drive and you answered 60 GB.  Now you say your PARTITION C: is 60 GB with only 20 GB used?  I really don't understand what you're so confused.  It's simple arithmetic grade 3rd.  What is space you USED on the C: drive, that multiply by 0.7 to obtain the amount of space will be used on your backup disk after compression.  Divide this number by 4.7 and round.  That's how many DVDs you'll need if you insist on the use of DVDs for backup.  Then

  (1) If you are using 60 GB, the answer is (60 x.7) / 4.7 = 8.936.  I rounded up to 9 and added 1 just to be sure.

  (2) If you use only 20 GB, the answer is (20 x.7) / 4.7 = 2.97 rounded up to 3.  Add 1 and get 4.

  If you use only 20 GB, I am very surprised, because almost any important installation of Windows 7 is going to take more than 20 GB.

  All of this assumes that you do NOT use the Windows backup and restore program, but one that I recommended.  When I used the windows one, the results were several times the space that I used on my C: partition.

  Good luck.

• RMAN-20207: until the RECOVERY WINDOW, which was before the RESETLOGS

  Dear friends,
  
  I'm picking up some time and I have used this SQL in my RMAN
  
  reset the database incarnation 1;
  
  run
  {
  until ' to_date (3 Aug 10 17:50 ',' MON-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') ";
  restore the database;
  recover the database;
  }
  
  and I get this error: RMAN-20207: until the RECOVERY WINDOW, which was before the RESETLOGS
  
  I thought changing the incarnation will solve the problem. I have only 2 incarnations, which is used after that the resetlogs which is number 2. So I now use 1 incarnation.
  
  How should I go about this?
  
  Thanks in advance.

  Ok...

  Now, what you have to do: If you want to point at the time of recovery, you must have a valid backup plus archivelogs in order to recover up to the desired time.

  From now on, full backup is available for the time that you asked, however archivelogs not :(

  You must make available, controlfile catalogue and begin to restore, recover up to the hour. Then open with resetlogs option.

  Is it possible to install a device to a Windows Vista-based computer when you can get Windows 98 drivers for the device?

  # You have need Vista compatible drivers - it's the only way it will work.  Installing bad drivers can even to hurt the unit or even your system to not try.  Get a new USB device that works with Vista, and has the correct drivers.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows 7 Ultimate (MVP version) for the upgrade of windows 10

  I read here on the forums that depending on your version (selling retail or OEM), your upgrade to Windows 10 license will be allowed to transfer to a future computer with new hardware or we will be limited to current pc hardware.

  I have a version of Windows 7 Ultimate MVP, is - retail or OEM?

  I would like to know because I want to buy new hardware (CPU, mobo, vidcard etc) in 2016.

  Depending on the response, it might be interesting for me to wait for the Windows Update until next year and buy new hardware before July 29, 2016.

  If the upgrade of Windows 10 has the rights to transfer to a new material based on the version of Windows 7 Ultimate MVP, do I need to install the version of Windows 7 first before the upgrade again to 10 Windows on a new pc?

  Given that the "'free update is based on your current version of Windows 7 and is linked to your current hardware, you will need to re - install Windows 7 on your new hardware and then upgrade to Windows 10 GWX icon before July 29, 2016.

• Problem of activating Windows 7: for the upgrade product key

  Hi there I had to replace my drive hard when he died, so I installed windows 7 on it instead of upgrade of vista because I never had a vista disk when I bought the laptop, but when I went to turn it on he told me that the key was invalid because it was only for the upgrade.  Is it possible to fix this problem or get a new free activation key since I already paid for the upgrade?

  You can reactivate your Windows 7 installation by doing the following:

  1. click on the Start button and in the box, type search: slui.exe 4

  2. press the Enter key on your keyboard.

  3. Select your country.

  4. follow the instructions for the activation of the telephone (toll-free).

• From what I read, if I buy a commercial version full of windows 7, I am not eligible for the upgrade of $14.95 to windows 8 in about 6 months.

  I'm about to buy a computer with 16 GB of memory. I'll of course need a 64 bit OS, it looks like a good time to switch to windows 7, XP. But windows 7 seems to have a very short life span. The OEM version is eligible for a special download offer upgrade $ 14.95 to windows 8 that seems due Q1 2013, but it seems that the retail version is not eligible for this offer? Like many people I do not upgrade OS every time is out. But why would I pay for an OS which is replaced in 6 months?

  Huh?

  14.99 reduction is a limited offer in time when you buy a new computer between June 2, 2012 and on January 31, 2013, with Windows 7. By October 26, 2012, the PC of all major manufacturers will come preloaded with Windows 8. The thing, it is likely to be the inventory on the market with Windows 7 for a while of OEM brand. If a consumer buys one of them, they should have the eligibility for the upgrade of Windows 8.

  Of course, you can buy the new computer with Windows 7 pre-loaded, acquire the Windows 8 upgrade what becomes availalable and install it at your leisure and activate it whenever you're ready.

  Yes, the retail version of Windows 7 is not eligible for the upgrade 14.99 discount, but you can get an updated copy of Windows 8 Pro for 39.99 beginning October 26, 2012 and ending on January 31, 2013.

• Cannot activate Windows 8 error "the Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not to own pieces."

  Original title: invalid product key :(

  Today, I tried to load my computer and was faced with the blue screen error short story that my hard drive some how became corrupt and had no partition. Fortunately, I had a friend who told me step by step how to solve this problem using my hard drive in my brothers pc. When it came to reinstalling windows I booted the computer directly from my windows disc 8 and when I tried to activate the key once I was ready to I received an error Code: 0xC004F061Description: The Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not for own pieces. Means that I can not use the key I bought and must buy a new one? It seems really unfair because I've already spent money on the upgrade.

  You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)

  If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

  If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.
