I'm trying to install Acrobat 8 Std on a laptop computer that was in need of a restoration. He asks the file AdobePDF.dll since my Vista CD - I do not have. How can I get this file or another which will allow my Acrobat 8 work on this laptop with Win 8.1, which she did before restoring?
John,
AdobePDF.dll is in the file Data1.cab. Mine is located in C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat8\Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional\ You need to extract the file "AdobePDF.dll_64" from the .cab file. You can do this with WinZip or 7-Zip. Everything you need to extract is this file, nothing else... Once you have extracted it, remove the _64, so the name of the file is AdobePDF.dll. Then place the file in any location you want and run the program it when asked. For a file location, I suggest to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Acrobat8\
Hope that helps.

I have a HP Pavilion 500-267C, can I install a second hard drive in this PC?
My turn XP no longer works, but there is some information on the hard drive I want to recover my present
PC uses the Windows 7 operating system. Can my old hard drive be installed in the new HP without ruining the new
computer or the old hard drive?
Yes, implying that the old disks hard XP is in good health.
You can use a USB external hard shore caddy for the old disk or you can directly connect via the SATA port on your motherboard you new computer. 99% of the time there will be connections of additional power from the power supply on your new machine to feed the old drive.
All of this assumes that the old drive is SATA interface _ we IDE, in which case you would need an adapter to connect directly to the new MoBo computers.
I don't think that even though you can check to make sure there is no IDE USB external hard drive caddies.
The top is SATA and the bottom is IDE.

I want to clean install windows 8 pro x 64 on a new ssd upgrade.
I have windows xp x 32 on an existing hard drive which I no longer use, I can do this, that I can start the upgrade process, and then point the installation on the new SSD?I really don't want to install XP on the new SSD and am not bothered about keeping programs or settingsHow to do a clean install:
Step 1: Use the upgrade wizard to describe the PC and pay the $40 (US)
Step 2: When the 'Install Windows 8' message appears, select 'Install by creating media' to create a bootable USB key or .iso (a disk image) file.
Step 3: Wait for the Wizard download Windows 8 Pro installation package and create the bootable media or .iso file. The flash player must be having 3 GB or more of free space available.
Step 4: Burn the .iso file, if that's the path you have chosen, to a blank DVD.
Step 5: Use this key USB or DVD to boot the PC.
Step 6: When you get to the screen in the Setup program that asks, "which type of installation you want?" choose "custom".
Step 7: Select a drive for the operating system partition in the next screen. At this point, you can create a new partition if there is enough space available or reformat the hard disk.
Step 8: Proceed with the installation of Windows 8 Pro.
You should probably do a phone activation after installation is complete.
1. press the Windows key + X , and then click run, and then type: slui.exe 4
2. then press the ENTER"" key.
3. Select your "country" in the list.
4. choose the option "activate phone".
5. stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
6. explain your problem clearly to the support person.

Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1
Hello
Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1? Whenever I do a page search thishappens which show how update but I have read that Windows 10 requires an updated Boot Camp (v6).
Or better yet 6 Boot Camp out again? If so, how do I update my Boot Camp?
FYI: that's what I did to get the version of Boot Camp, I went to my Windows partition click on icon Boot Camp and click on the button on Boot Camp and I got 4.1.
I'm running Windows 7 on Mac OSX El Capitan.
Any advice?
If you already have installed W7 you can pass up to W10. Bootcamp may be necessary if you need to re - install W10. If your model of Mac is not listed in the link you found, Apple does not officially support W10 on your Mac, which means that there is no W10 driver certified for your model of Mac.

It depends on if your computer or hardware manufacturer has Windows 8 drivers available in your computer model and the 3rd party hardware.
Do the following before upgrade you to Windows 8/8.1.
Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8/8.1 drivers available for your model.
If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.
