I have a Dell OEM copy & Home Student 2007 office came with my Dell laptop.

I have 2 machines from Dell and have now bought a laptop HP Mini 110 with XP. Can I install the copy Dell Office 2007 on the HP OEM or I have to buy new software? I use the trial version of 60 days on it now that expires in a few days.

Paul,

Thanks for posting. If you uninstall the Dell printer software then you will very probably be able to install it on the HP mini if you perform the activation of the phone. However, you can not install on two computers at the same time.

I hope this helps.

  • Download Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007 but the automatic updates do not work.

    Hello. Thanks in advance for your help here.

    I am at a loss to know what to do.

    Recently, I downloaded Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007, which seems to be very well. The problem is the automatic updates do not work. After searching online, I did the start > run > Winver and he says I have Service Pack 3. Then I went to control panel in Add/Remove Programs, and even if it is listed, there is no indication that it is actually installed.

    I remember a year or there are problems with SP3, when I tried to upgrade to IE8 so "I THINK" I removed it. Probably shouldn't have done that!  But IE8 has worked fine once I removed it. Microsoft says that we will no longer receive automatic updates to SP2 in June and so we have to upgrade to SP3.  Well, I just don't know what I have on my computer at this point!

    Anyway, now I get these failed messages on the updates for the Office:

    The 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP2)
    Update for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB967642)
    Update of security for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB951944)
    Update of security for Microsoft Office 2007 (KB951550)

    So I thought I'd download the SP2.  But I did not know if Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 actually means I have SP2 installed or not.  And I got in such a mess last year I don't want to take any chances again.

    I'm sorry that it is a message that is too long. I tried to print screens to attach more information, but that did not work. Let me know what you need.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    Diane

    I found more information. Looking in my history of update for automatic updates, all 4 of these updates failed have the same error Code which is: 0 x 80070663.  I don't know if this info helps solve this problem or not, but that's it.

    Hello
     

    a. you are able to download and install updates in Windows other than Microsoft Office?

    If you have SP3 listed in the Windows Version (winver) which ensures that you have Windows XP SP3 installed.
     
    Let us download the updates manually and install them, here are the links to download.
     
     
     
     
     
    Note: Make sure also that you have the prerequisites installed as indicated in the articles above.
     
     
    I hope this helps.

  • I have a comp with windows Vista Home Basic 2007 Office. Can I upgrade to vista home premium? too many things are not compatible with windows 7.

    This upgrade to vista family premium is still available? is this useful? How much would it cost?

    where do I go to windows 7 and just deal with incompatible programs?

    or just forget it and leave it as it is until I can afford a new?

    * I just did a full factory restore, which helped.

    but when I reinstalled the operating system, it wouldn't let me put in the same primary place on drive C?

    I had to put it in a secondary partition and it saved a lot of old stuff and labeled "old windows"?

    I do not understand why it does this. is there something in the old system files I need?

    cause the entire purpose of the restoration was to get rid of all that. now, I have essentially 2 copies taking up room.

    because he saved much of the old system files, there's no enough space in the main square.

    Do you think I can manually remove the "old windows" copy C drive without doing any harm to the computer?

    I did enter and delete all of the photos and docs & downloads which he recorded, that I didn't, with no negative consequences.

    but it still has a lot of program/file system I fear not remove.i shouldn't need them... right?

    everything I need should be there since the operating system reinstalled, I just did?

    Help?

    Marc Zanyk

    By all means delete the windows.old folder.  Use disk cleanup.  You will find a box to check the detached, although it will not be called "windows.old" specifically.

    It seems that your computer has a recovery partition.  You would not be able to install.

    As for Home Premium, Yes, you can switch to HP.  If you can still find a copy.  Vista Express upgrade is no longer available since Vista is no longer available at a retailer.  However, you can find a copy on eBay.  Make sure you buy a retail copy and not an OEM copy.  You will not be able to update an OEM copy.  No matter if the copy of detail you find is a copy of full or upgrade license.  You'd still be able to do an upgrade in place with one or the other.

  • How can I get a key product validation for Windows XP to the OEM of Vista Business downgrade, which came with my laptop?

    I recently bought an Asus laptop that came with a genuine product key Vista Business OEM. I want to downgrade to XP and have installed a copy of XP OEM for this purpose I have found information on the internet indicating that I would be able to contact Microsoft, explain my desire to downgrade, to provide them with my Vista Business product key, and they would provide me a product key for XP, I could then use to activate the copy of XP I have installed.

    However, it seems that it is more possible, because all the support activation is automated, and I was able to get a Microsoft service on the phone representative to activate my new installation of XP. How can I do to receive a product key for XP and activation of my installation?

    Thank you

    Scott

    Thanks for the replies, you two! I called Asus, and they said that, since they do not recommend the downgrade, they do not downgrade disks provide, or provide for XP Pro license keys in case a user wants to downgrade. I told them about the rights of download, which I had heard before on the MS site support and they have always said they wouldn't / couldn't provide me with a license key, even if it was for OEM Windows XP distribution. Ah, well!

    I don't think that Asus just "recommended" it or not!

    They must conform to Microsoft.

  • I have lost my Windows XP Professionsla installation disc that came with computer and I see the message asking me to insert disk 3 to reinstall the files. What should I do?

    I lost the Windows Professional disc that came with the computer. I get a pop up requires me to insert the disc 3 of which I don't have the installation disc. Even if I try to do a system restore I need the disk. I can't lose information that is on the computer and do not have an external drive. What should I do?

    There is no disc 3 of Windows XP Professional.  Windows XP (other Media Center if I remember well) was a CD.

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory.  This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
    -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

    You can use an application that scans your system for the log files and temporary files and use it to get rid of those who:

    Download and run the MSRT tool manually:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx
    (Ignore the details and download the tool to download and save to your desktop, run it.)

    Reset.

    (Download and save it to your desktop, run it.)

    Reset.

    and...

    Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:
    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91237
    ... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After you register on the root of the C:\ drive, follow these steps:

    Now that your system is generally free of malicious software (assuming you have an AntiVirus application), you've cleaned the "additional applications" that could be running and picking up your precious memory and the processor, you have authorized out of valuable and makes disk space as there are no problems with the drive itself and your Windows Update components are updates and should work fine - it is only only one other thing you pouvez wish to make:
