HP Pavilion g6-1229so: is it possible to use the serial number under the laptop?

So, this is my first post here. Without wasting much time, I will go straight into the problem. About 2-3 years ago, my friend got a copy of Windows 8 for its new pc. Then he came to me and told me that I should try / install. After installing I read the disk. guess what? Its only supposed to be used enemy 1 pc. What menas that I have (and a friend of mine) has a pop up saying activate windows. So my question is, can I use the code for windows 7 Home premium which is under the pc? or I have to buy a new windows license? (Yes, I had this 'problem' for 2-3 years)

Hello:

The product key for W7 on the bottom of your PC will not work to activate the W8.

You'll need to reinstall W7 or purchase a license W8.

  • Is satellite L350-170 - possible to use the laptop as external monitor

    Ok... So I broke the other day to the top of my screen on my laptop, and was amazing, if it is possible to use another laptop as an external monitor.

    while I put my files on an external hard drive

    or isit only possible connection to the pc?

    Hello

    It would be possible to use the second laptop as an external display ONLY if the computer a laptop would support the video port line-in to the receipt of the video signal.

    But the most common books supports the only video out s-Video port or a vga port, and in this case, you will not be able to use the laptop as a second monitor external.

    For example, the Satellite L350-170 supports only the RGB port that allow you to connect this laptop to external monitor but you can not use this laptop as compensation for external monitor.

  • Is it possible to use the Satellite P200D - 11L with Windows XP

    I want to buy this model from Toshiba (P200D - 11L). Is it possible to run it with Windows XP? Because I'm not interested in Windows Vista now... thx

    Of course, it is possible to use the XP on this laptop.
    But the question is; All the XP drivers are available for this series of satellites P?

    I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and, unfortunately, I didn't find the XP drivers for the series Sat P200D currently

    Well, as far as I remember the XOP drivers were unavailable for the A200 series too. But after a few days/weeks Toshiba comes to present all the XP drivers.
    I guess that this series is brand new on the market and it may need to wait a bit until all the XP drivers will be available.

    Please do not get out of patience ;)

  • Is it possible to use the AirPort Express to AirPlay only? (Wireless)

    Hello

    I have a speaker and I would empower AirPlay for it. I have an old airport express here in my house and I wanted to plug my express from the airport to my wireless network and allow the airplay.

    The only thing I don't want to not remove is the possibility to extend the wireless network, because I'm pretty sure it will do more bad then good, since I was a big of AC very close to the speaker wireless router. (http://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RT-AC5300)

    Is it possible to use the Airport express only airplay? Without trying to extend my network?

    Thanks in advance!

    Kind regards

    Tiago

    Yes, if you have the main router near the speakers... then simply plug the Express into the enclosure of the ethernet... Run it in Bridge mode and turn off wireless... Then check if you can find it in iTunes etc to send the stream of airtime.

    Or you can configure it to join a wireless network... it will not extend... Apple call it client mode.

  • HP Pavilion e17 - 148 ca: [URGENT] need response on the laptop screen went blank question

    Hello there, this is the Prince of the heavenly Crown of Canada here.

    I've been a loyal user of HP consumer level laptop for 2 years.

    It seems that there is a problem with my laptop screen display.

    For my part, this is the first time this kind of problem has occurred.

    For some reason, in my current (well, now its my last) session, my screen became totally blank on me and turned black, as if the laptop was in a sort out of power status, however, the power of the laptop was always and until the issue has suddenly decided to occur before my eyes , I had been using the laptop and was even working on a coding operating... some of you may know me as the creator of the heavenly System.ini Crown Configuration file.

    Apparently, it is a known issue with HP Laptop, and I don't know if HP is actively focusing on the question of setting so that it does not become an inconvenience to other users of HP laptops or buyers.

    Is there a known solution as to how to fix this kind of problem? This is very critical and I was in the middle of the tent to save the rest of my code in Notepad on my desk, but I would speculate that asides from the 2 files I could save, the rest would have gone unless I would be able to resume my last session which I highly doubt at this stage.

    If someone could please let me know as soon as possible, I would appreciate it a lot.

  • Satellite A100-635: is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM

    I have a portable satellite a100-635 with 1024 MB of RAM DDR2-533. Is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM modules instead of 533 in this model? Thank you.

    P.S. I doubt because all portable satellite I've seen so far have been equipped with 533 modules by default. Still the chipset supports officially the DDR2-667 (Intel 945GM) modules.

    Hello

    I'm not 100% sure, but as the site says that it won't work, I think you can trust them, and it does not work.
    But if you want to try it, please post the result here.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L50 - A - 1 7 - is possible to use the windows key

    Hello

    IM upgrading to a L50 - a - 1 c 7 for a desktop game pc. im going to use the hard drive of my laptop and I'm not going to use my laptop again.

    so my question is: is it possible to use the key windows of my laptop and re - use for my office?
    When I have more money later I'll buy a HDD a windows for my laptop key

    Thanks in advance

    In General, the Windows key is the version of the OS installed on your laptop. I don't understand how you want to use the HARD drive on your desktop with a different hardware configuration. Original image installed on your HARD drive recovery is designed for your laptop and a suitable job o with certain hardware platform.

  • Not possible to use the Nvidia GPU both graphics primary source all the time?

    I went through the manual and the tips of help from Lenovo and it seems that it is not possible to use the NVIDIA GeForce 840 M, 2 GB as the exclusive GPU card.

    The only control that I can find is one in the Panel of 3D graphics and if I read this correctly it assigns that Nvidia will be used when require it strong application processes (I'm guessing games play?) but for activities such as photo editing, it is up to the intel sur-bard chip

    To force an application to use your NVIDIA graphics card, right click on its shortcut (or an .exe file), point on run with graphics processor and select the NVIDIA processor high performance.
