I did a clean install of Windows 10 PRO - how can I activate the desktop mode

Before I did the reinstall - I had this option when I right click on the task bar to activate the battery icon desktop mode.

If someone please tell me what a piece of software that I should download to re - activate?

Thank you!

There is no Quickset software for this particular laptop - so I went through every download on http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/product/alienware-15/drivers and I finally installed "Alienware on Application of on-screen display" - after the restart it was back.

However, it is not really intuitive.

Thank you ieee48 and Mary G for big ideas.

    Relax and breathe.

    FIRST: Uninstall IE8 and IE7 if they are installed.  Back to all the way back to IE6.  You want other patches before you get those.  Reboot after doing this.

    You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

    Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

    Install it.

    Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

    Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

    Install it.

    Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

    Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

    Install it.

    Reset.

    Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

    Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.

    I have a HP mini 210-2145 DX.  I recently had to do a clean install of Windows Ultimate edition.  Now, I can get a wireless connection because I can't find the right drivers on the HP site.  I tried 12 + drivers that I downloaded.  They all seem to be for 32 bits, and it's 64-bit.

    Can someone please help me find the right wireless drivers to install?  Thank you.

    Try this different file and see if it works automatically and installs the driver.

    File name: sp57965.exe

    There was also support for the hardware ID you have posted.

    I have no problem downloading the file, or by using 7 - zip to extract the exe file downloaded to a folder that you can browse from the network controller to install the drivers.

    Unfortunately, I can't help you with the problem if the new file does not work.

  • Can not access the updates after clean install of Windows 7 Pro

    I have formatted my hard drive digital, preformed a clean install of Windows 7 Pro. Everything went well and OS seems to be properly authenticated.

    The question is not able to 'find' updates.  At startup, the message: NEW UPDATES AVAILABLE. When I check the updates, the process runs "forever" and never completes the process. The problem would be to my use of Office 2003? I have installed for messaging and Outlook calendar.  Here's the MGADiag.exe diagnostic tests.

    You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

    How to reset the Windows Update components

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

    Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista/Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

    I suggest before you stop and install the updates, disconnect from the Internet, first.

    I also recommend that download you and install Service Pack 3 for Office 2003, then look for updates in the Help menu.

    I want to install windows 7 and I get an error saing that I need to install via windows PE? How can I go about it?

    Hello

    1. you try to perform a new installation of Windows 7?

    2. where did you buy the Windows 7 DVD?

    This particular message occurs generally if you try to perform an upgrade on the spot of a recovery disc or installation support OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) that contains a custom defined configuration and can't stand not running an upgrade installation.

    The message means that you probably need to start using the installation media. You can also contact the manufacturer of your computer to determine the type of installation media that you have and to confirm what options are available when booting from the disc.

    Here are some links that provide additional information about the installation of Windows 7:

    Alternatively, you can consult this article to understand what is Windows PE.
