Can I order the DVD of one or two of microsoft?

I contacted the local support (Athens, Greece) but they can do nothing for me, they said that MS DVD are not available locally.
Hi Vassiliki,
Unfortunately, if the files are infected you may very well end up having to re - install Windows. However, there are steps in this KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/249694 to try to back up and restore Vista which may allow you to keep the programs you have.
Another alternative would be to called a upgrade on the spot if you are sure that the files are cleaned and the infection is gone this solution should leave your programs and data intact and repair the damaged parts of Windows.

I have windows vista on this computer and I want to remove it and add windows xp.
I have Windows Vista on this computer and I want to remove it and replace it with Windows XP Professional. Whenever I tried to do, I succumbed. I tried to just boot from the cd and install xp and it tells me that the version on the computer is newer than the one I am trying to install and then gives me no option besides. I left and I restarted in safe mode and the command propt tried to fdisk and he said no authorized for this. When I try to format it is said that volume id and I don't know who. I've never been so lost trying to remove a platform in my life. I would like to have an answer to this problem, thanks and have a blessed day, Robin
Hi Robin,
· What is the type of disc you are having? It's a drive to upgrade or full version?
· How many partitions are present on the computer?
· Why would you downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP?
You need demarrer start from the installation disc, choose the partition where Windows is installed (ideally the C drive). Format it and then go to the Windows XP installation.
Let us know if you need more assistance.

I have a DeskJet 6940 and it's on the list for HP ePrint home & Biz, but I can't find his e-mail.
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03722645
I looked at the page Web of LAN of the printer and the Win 7 64 bit print test page and none of them give me an e-mail that I can use to implement.
sureshotnj,
With this particular Deskjet, you won't have to add it. The application will automatically search and find all capable printers.
You can select the Photos section, select a photo, and then see if your printer is auto-découvert on the bottom in the center of the application when you view your selected photo.

How to get the source to windows vista Home premium recovery is not from the recovery partition and gives me an error message
Hello
Contact the computer manufacturer 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 $
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Hotmail is completely different from a POP3 account, it's a moot point.Did you get on the site of the Webmail Server with this password? I can't find that for TV of MyPC POP3 server settings then if it is a new issue, give it some time error said temporary, but if this account has never worked, tech support contact and get the appropriate settings. -

The copy of Windows Vista is not genuine and will not accept the product key.
Original title: my copy of Vista has just decided that it is more authentic and does not accept my product key. Why?
Can you re - activate my product key or simply give me a product that works properly & constantly?
If you mean that you can not activate automatically, try to do it manually:
To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter. Enter your country and press Next. You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below. Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being. Have your handy product code because it will be asked. Explain the situation, but it's the same PC and only installed on this PC. They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista.
To solve the real problem, repost on the Forum of real advantage to:http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/genuinevista/threads.
