  Some antivirus/security products may cause this error. McAfee, Norton, Windows Live OneCare.
  ThreatFire are some. What antivirus/antispyware/security products you have on machine now. And
  who have you ever on it, even if you have uninstalled them. (These leave the remains that can cause some)

• My gateway crashed, after using my Dell recovery disk, I can't activate my Windows

  I can't activate my windows now. Is there something I can do? Just a note: I bought two of these computers and carry the product numbers.

  Gateway who told me:
  "I regret to inform you that we are unable to provide a service of this system, given the age of the system and because of the unavailability of parts."

  Is there something I can do?

  Original title: my gateway crashed, he even out recovery and I lost my recovery disc. I have a Dell and the recovery disc to install windows xp on it.

  Hello
   
  System which comes preinstalled with the operating system are the unique product key and it is recommended that get you in touch with the manufacturer to get the product key or a recovery disc.
  Note:
  You would need a gateway disk or a System Builder copy/retail copy and use the product key provided with the computer to turn on.
  Explanation of SLP
  Used by equipment manufacturers (OEM), SLP (Locked) preinstallation system uses the information stored in the computer's BIOS to protect each installation from casual copying. No communication by the end customer to Microsoft is necessary. At the start of the system, the operating system compares the computer BIOS to the SLP information. If it matches, no activation is required.

• (Redirected) How to buy an Alienware with Windows 7 Pre - installed 17!

  I live in England and I need to buy an Alienware 17 High Spec model with Windows 7 Pre - installed.

  There might be a straight forward application but is not only everything I keep being told its only available with 8.1 is o/s.

  I checked on the web site of the United Kingdom and there under the heading:-features & Design

  Available with Windows 7 Home Premium - for a smooth and flexible PC experience.

  Can someone please confirm that this computer is available with 7 o/s or it is not can you please remove the ad as its very confusing.

  In reading the other topics on this forum its very clear that this is not a simple re install with 7 o/s and not the kind of thing you do when you buy a new computer.

  This computer is not for domestic use and is to be used on board the ship have been around computers run 7 o/s.

  Thanks a lot for reading

• Windows 7 pre installed partion delet back then how to recover windows 7 home prium

  Windows 7 pre installed partion delet back then how to recover windows 7 home prium

  Hello

  You have very limited options now that you have deleted the recovery partition.

  The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

  But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).

  As you have licensed preinstalled OEM (Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they must provide for a fee, if they still have available which is very doubtful.

  Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

  See you soon.

  I did remove it and reinstall Windows option on my Asus Vivibook. Now, the language of Windows 8 pre-installed unique cannot be enabled because it says that the product code is blocked. What can we do? Thank you!

  Hi Casey,.

  I suggest you to contact the ASUS support for assistance. Since then you have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) computer, as said "André". the product key is embedded in the BIOS and should automatically recover when necessary.

  Thank you very much for your reply and I contact sales in the States and it is possible for me to buy a MX 17 or 18, but it must be shipped to an address in the States. It's ok since we do not have an office in Seattle.

  However, as it must then be sent reports to the United Kingdom this means I would pay extra delivery customs cost plus so it would not be worth extra costs involved. For the only options that I can see who is available to me buy a non Dell machine or buy a used machine, on Ebay with low spec with windows 7 installed, or the purchase of a UK machine then installing windows 7 Professional our me however, I understand it's not a simple as that.

  I thought it would be a right task replacing one of the computers on our ships, but its clear sound far right forward, why is the possibility to buy the o/s 7 available only to States.

• Need a product key to activate Windows 8 pre-installed on the Samsung laptop

  I bought the laptop samsung a year ago, in which Windows 8 was preinstalled.

  Now my it requires a product key to activate my windows.

  Where can I find?

  Please help me.

  Hello

  You don't tell us the circumstances in which she asks for the PK.

  Pre-installed with Windows 8/8.1 the product key on the operating systems (HP, Acer, etc.) is integrated in the motherboard BIOS, so that the problem of sticker joint record lost or worn out is no more.

  If you reinstall it must pick up the product key and activate the system automatically.

  I suggest that you follow these steps, and brace yourself for a real person explain to the:

• I can't dual boot my PC pre-installed Windows 7 with Windows XP?

  I created a primary partition on my Windows 7 PC preinstalled in freeing up space. When I start my PC the Windows XP installation CD, Windows XP will in the usual configuration process by displaying the F6 option on the screen blue etc and it unloads the controllers and disks required.  However, when the installation phase starts, an error message appears: "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.  Continue displaying the error message "If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears the following steps - check for viruses, run Chkdsk.  It is followed by a time code error stop: 0X0000007B etc.  Please note that I checked my computer for any viruses and none have been reported.  I ran CHKDSK in guest of user privileges to administrator and windows has checked the file system had no problem.

  It is important to mention that since I managed to install a copy of Windows Vista on my PC pre-installed Windows 7 without any problem.  I can now now dual boot between the two OSs.  Unfortunately, I can not install a new genuine copy of Windows XP on my PC.  I get the same old error message after configuring setup blue screen whenever I try to install Windows XP.  Now, it seems that I have to buy another PC to install XP despite the fact that I have a lot of space on the hard drive of Windows 7 preinstalled PC.  I am aware of the fact that Windows XP uses a different startup for Windows 7/Vista file, but my computer must always allow Windows XP install.

  I am just totally baffled by the latter.   It is normally recommended to install Windows XP before Windows 7, but because my PC is preinstalled with Windows 7, this recommeded option has not been available to me.  I would appreciate any suggestion to this problem of people there.

  Thank you

  "the SATA driver will be included in the Chipset Drivers?" - Yes they are generally at least that your SATA ports are connected to a separate SATA/RAID chip.

  There are two good utilities to create a "SlipStreamed" CD
  (1) Autostreamer - easy to use. (Only not for the integration of the drivers)
  (2) nLite - which is more complex, but you can integrate drivers
  and much more. http://www.nliteos.com/nLite.html

  I would like to format my PC because of the problems I've been as blue screen errors.

  I bought a PC pre-installed Windows Vista and I don't have the DVD of windows.
  Question: How can I format the hard drive?

  Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  ____________________________________________________________

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  __________________________________________________________

• Can not activate reinstalled windows 8

  A year ago I bought a dell inspiron 15r with windows 8 only installed language. Dell didn't send me a windows install disc and I don't know my product key. I don't like windows 8 at the time and did a clean install of windows 7 and used for a year. Recently, I decided to reinstall windows 8.je found an iso file of windows 8 and installed it on my USB. Assumed to activate my windows 8 automatically but it didn't. During installation, it did not my product key, I thought it was activated, but it is not. It's find my product key 8 windows with my service tag.

  The iso file I found is 8.1 windows only language, I think that there is no problem here.

  Microsoft made the Windows 8.1 installation media reject 8.0 Windows product keys during installation, but not during activation. The solution is to install with a generic product key and then get your product using RW-everything key. You can then activate using the key to change. See here for more details:
