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.

    I have recived portable computer of the Government with windows pre installed 7professional but now I want to format and reinstal it I require the startup disk and product key (my OS is authentic)

    If it's a copy of volume license installed, you will need to contact your employer to find the product key and get the installation files.

    If it is preinstalled at the factory with Windows 7 Professional, then use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

  • Can I use my Win 7 Upgrade disk to do a clean install on my desktop that my old laptop has now been destroyed. ?

    Ok.. I bought a laptop with Vista pre installed Sony.

    Then, I bought a copy of Win 7 Upgrade to upgrade, I did.
    Shortly after, my laptop broke and I got a new laptop through my insurance company which had Win 7 pre installed. I just got a new desktop PC and was wondering if I could use my Win 7 Upgrade disk to do a clean install on my desktop that my old laptop has now been destroyed. ?

    As long as the original computer disappeared, I think you can use the upgrade on another computer...

  • When I download windows 8 and try to install it says that we can not connect now, check your internet connection

    * Original title: download windows 8

    When I download windows 8 and try to install it says that we can not connect now, check your internet connection but my internet is good?

    What download link you use. ?  The only one I know is installation media to create for Windows - 8.1 help Windows .

    Given that support for Windows 8 ends, I'd do a 8.1 of Windows Installer Clean , following the procedure in step 4 to activate Windows 8.1 using a product key of Windows 8.  It gives the default product key to install, after which, you can use your key to activate.

  • Why Burns fail, I have 120 mins on DVD + R and video space is 109 minutes?

    HP Pavilion Desk top P6610f Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit internet wireless.  I burned DVDs with the engraver of DVD HP Media smart but it wouldn't let me not even burn more than 59 minutes on a single disc.  I use a trial version of software from NCH EXpress Burn and it seems to work much better, but when I tried to burn a video of 109 minutes for disc 2 hours or 120 minutes, he said the he did not allow.  In fact, he said that she had more space on the disk that the factory said that this was the case the day before.  NCH says the drive has 2::26 s minutes free space, the DVD says there 2 hours and I tried to burn a video of 109 minutes on a 120 minute drive.  The video is too long or is it a different problem entirely?  Thanks in advance for your help.

     

    Hello

    Depending on the type of the size of the video and the file, you can write video from 60 minutes on a 120 minute disc. For example: same length of a film, but you can buy a simple DVD layer, double layer DVD and BluRay disc. In this case, the decline in the quality of the video must fit.

    Hope this helps.

  • Problem with the iPhone OS. Have to restore it several times and it now has white screen flashing with Apple logo

    Got my iPhone SE a little over a month since the Thailand of the Apple Store.

    First he couldn't restore entirely made from a backup so I had to delete all data and content then restored again. Then try to restore from a backup, still have problems (apps froze, failed to synchronize all of the apps, then tried to shutdown phone and glued on white background with the Apple logo).

    Try to third, I put my phone in recovery mode and restore as a new iPhone. All original content is now gone. Should it start again.

    Then small annoying problems occurred. For example, I could not find applications in the App Store, could not download new free applications, could not buy music on the iTunes Store app. It seems that Internet was frozen, when in fact it works always fine when try browsing on Safari. Facebook froze and could not push Home button to close App game graphics making static sound glitches but always disappear when him restart the application. Can't post photos on a social media application because my whole library of photos seems to be empty, when in fact he was always there. When I was taking pictures, the preview images were extremely blurry, and when checked in Photos app there is no trace of this photo that I took. I tried to close all the applications and open it again but the problem still persists. So I close the phone and restart it just to find that it stuck on the white screen with the Apple logo once more. Then, I took the phone to the Apple service provider. They restore the phone as a new iPhone for me and I had to start over once again. Only 4 days after this, my iPhone application suddenly found me a new unlock access code within 60 minutes without reason. I have to reset hard to solve the problem. And after that, the same day, my iPhone starts to blink on and outside and sometimes the white screen with the Apple logo appears.

    Whenever I said my problem of staff Support from Apple or the Apple service provider, they told me that it was a software problem. How can I when I do all these problems again and again from the beginning until now? Can anyone suggest me the right way to solve this problem? What problem do you think it's from? I can't take this anymore. I need a good show, not working iPhone undesirable. I can't keep it restore/reset/reboot over and over again like this. Please, help me.

    Take it to an Apple Store for the assessment of the guarantee.  If you have restored to factory settings, and these problems persist, there is a hardware problem, no matter what you' re said.
