  I don't have a Vista DVD that I bought the upgrade online. I have it on a spare SATA drive and can't burn on a DVD because for some reason any damned, it is slightly larger then what fits on a 8.4 GB DVD. I have a disc XP full version. The current installation is a clean vista who, for now, I forget exactly how I managed, but I remember that you can do a full install with upgrade to vista as long you have your original cd of XP handy.

  Hello Sqrly,

  All you can do is try. It's 50-50 if you try to fix the MBR (master boot record). If this does not work and clean install will be your only option. If I were you, I would like to do a clean install. You can download this ISO (Vista) link:http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ but the use of this software to burn your ISO. Link: http://download.cnet.com/Active-ISO-Burner/3000-2646_4-10602452.html?tag=mncol, let us know if this allows you to get your drive. Follow the instructions. Try to repair your windows MBR with this disc. If it isn't you may have an option to make your recovery partition recovery disks or you must contact the manufacturer to buy them for a small fee. Very nice MOBO you got there by the way! ;-) Let us know whether, if that helps you. Make it a great day!

• Problems with colors on the screen after installing the new motherboard Vista

  Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit wrong colors.  Monitor works fine.  If a monitor has checked and all colors were there.  Had installed a new motherboard.  Worked well for fivedays then the colors red and green disappeared again.

  * original title - want to get the correct colors on my display/ecran.*

  You don't say where the motherboard has come: the Mamufacturer of the computer, or that you buy yourself.

  Take the correct option:

  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/motherboard > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

  See you soon.

• How to reactivate Windows XP after you install a new motherboard?

  original title: REACTIVATE MY XP PRO AFTER INSTALLING NEW motherboard

  I had to have a new card mother installed a few days ago and after I got my CPU home and hook

  place a screen came up saying I had to re-activate my XP Pro.  Thirdly, I bought this computer custom made

  hand and was not given any o/s disc or product key, but I upgraded the operating system and it has been certified

  Use Magical Jellybean Keyfinder to get your product key and then activate in the usual way.

  I assume that, by "upgrading of the o/s", you mean that you have downloaded and installed service packs or updates to security and not if you change from one version of Windows to another.

  Ms will allow me to re - certify my existing Windows 7-64 version once I replaced the motherboard?

  I just had a long conversation with someone in the Group MS Activation (866-530-6599.) I explained to him my situation and he assured me that I would have no problem activating my Win7 on the new motherboard.  To check this, he asked my existing product key Win7, that he checked and said was "green". He also gave me an Interaction # that points to his diary of our telephone discussion.

  He was quite positive that I would be able to get my active Win7 OK with the new motherboard. Hoping that it is correct...

• Cannot re - install windows 7 after installing the new motherboard

  I have a desktop HP, circa 2010, running Windows 7. It it a machine of HP brand with a product windows key that is related to specific hardware when I bought it. The motherboard died last week and the original is not available any more, so I had to install a motherboard ASUS. The PC starts fine until windows recognizes that this is a different material. The system restore fails also in the same Manor.

  Finally, I will restore this original sate is that it works even fines, it is a quad core with 8 GB memory and always runs fast. I have a new SSD drive I want to swap in and upgrade to Windows 10 after I return to a good state.

  I tried to install windows 7 from scratch for the new SSD, but I can't because the product key is a marked HP one and Microsoft does not accept it.

  Is it possible for me to get Microsoft to give me a new key proeduct, after all that I feel that I own this copy of windows and I have the right to re - install windows

  Any suggestions other than buying a new copy of windows is appreciated.

  Thank your for the answers. It looks like another office of Linux for me. Interesting to note that when I did a clean install of Windows 7 original Activation of Windows code on the side of the case worked well.

• After installing the new motherboard old HDD work and give the new product key?

  I have an OEM version of Windows 7 64 bit installed and fully updated and work.

  If I change the notherboard (and the CPU but nothing else) and plug in the old HARD drive it will work?  I noticed that it will not be installed from scratch, but others say that if she is already innstalled and active, it will work.  Others say that Microsoft will release a new product key but are denied by those who say that I have to buy a new version of Windows.

  Also the question of the drivers for the new Board of directors etc - it just install them from the M/B drive when I start first?

  Unfortunately, no.

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

• After you install a new motherboard it takes forever to reach the sign on screen after power on

  After turning on the computer, the new phones logo screen remains on for centuries before I got the sign of windows on the screen. If I disable this screen in the bios, I get messages from post for centuries, which is just as boring.

  Unless it is an exact replacement for an older MB, you must download and install all the drivers of Windows XP available for her, beginning by the chipset drivers. If you are unsure how to do this, view the make and model (including revision number; it is usually screen printing on the MB if is not in your documentation), and we will try to help you.
