• I used a new hard drive and udated for windows 7, I have all the windows previous versios

  I got out my drive with XP and used windows 7 upgarde to the new drive and the activation key will not work without knowing that I had a previous windows.

  Should I charge one of my earlier version to make it work.

  on the previous version, it asks to put a previous version disc to check the upgrade

  Help!

  Thanks Carl

  If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

  How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

  Click Install now

  Accept the license agreement

  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Click on drive Options

  Select the disc/s click on Delete

  Click new

  Click on apply

  Click OK

  Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

  Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

  When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

  Click on properties

  Scroll down to the Windows Activation

  Click the link x days before activation.

  Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

  Enter the product key

  Click next

  Select the Activation of the phone

  Click Next when you enter your key page

  Select your country

  Click Next, call the number listed

  Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

  Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

  They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

  Click next to complete the activation.

  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.

• Disk Dell OEM of Windows 7 does not have a product key?

  My computer began to crash so I reformatted my computer and installed Windows 7 Professional using my OEM drive. After installation, my computer installed 70 something updates. Then, he says Windows must be enabled. For some reason any it will never trigger. After several days of trying to figure out why it will not be activated. Finally, I downloaded Produkey to watch my product key. That the when I noticed that it is said that he was not a found Windows product key. My drive was supposed to install Windows 7 without having to use a product key. What should I do?

  "DeMolay8613" wrote in message News: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy * .com...

  In fact, I bought the office refurbished Dell. It came with Windows 7 OEM disc. What's weird, is that the sticker on the body of the computer is Windows XP Professional.

  An OEM Win 7 installation disc also requires the issuance of a product key OEM COA on a real label.  If you do not have this feature so you don't have a genuine OEM product for your refurbished Dell.  You cannot use a XP Pro COA to activate a product Win 7.

• Sound is comin from the speaker and headphones at the same time. How to solve this problem?

  Hello! I installed win7 professional and upgrade to ultimate and when I play a music or vdo sound is coming from the speaker and the headphones. I have a 3ghertz Pentium 4 with 1 GB of ram, and it runs the 32-bit version. And also the headphone option is not present in the peripheral reading option.
  Can any1 please please help me?

  We consider that your machine uses Realtek HD audio-
  (Older versions of Realtek HD audio drivers may have a slightly different form, but the)
  basics should be the same).

  There are two ways to set up the helmet when it is plugged into the façade decision-making;
  (1) in Realtek Manager of her go to Advanced Settings feature in the upper right of the window.
  Check the circle next to cut... plugged back.
  When this fact was you must also click on the yellow folder icon below the
  Device settings advanced and check 'Disable protection of jack façade' is clear.
  -Of the drawbacks of this method are that you do not get an option of separate settings for headphones.
  then they use the same environment as your speakers and EQUALIZER settings, but you can use both the
  speakers and the headphones if you wish.
  -Note that with this option, the helmet does not show in Sound Manager window.

  (2) advanced settings in the sound Manager go to Realtek device.
  The check box next to do advance... at the same time.
  This will disable the speakers when headphone is plugged in the socket of the façade,
  and return to the speakers when headphones are disconnected.
  Also check one or more of the boxes below, according to your need.

  -With this setting, there is an option for headphones in the two Windows Sound manager
  and Realtek HD Audio Manager.
  -With this setting, it does not matter which option to use in yellow folder as the setting icon
  is ' either / or '. You cannot run at the same time the speakers and headphones.

  -Note that with games the headset must be connected prior to spear the game, or
  the default set to the speakers.

  Hello

  A System Restore Point does NOT restore to a previous operating system Installation.

  This is misinformation.

  You don't say how Vista has been reinstalled.

  Looking for a windows.old folder and if you find one, see if you can save your data from it.

  You will need to borrow an installation disc to a former operating system Microsoft - Windows 95, 98 or me. There is no way around it. If person don't you know is an older drive, you can borrow for a few minutes, you will need, you will need to either buy a copy full XP or take the unit to a local computer professional to do the XP installation for you.

  Hello

  I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.

  If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...

  1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.

  2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA

  3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html

  After the back if your BIOS is IDE / ATA
