    Hello

    Make sure the SD card works on other computers.

    The card reader is a USB device to ensure that other USB devices work.

    Check with HP, their drivers support and documentation online and ask in the forums of HP where it
    others will be with the same or similar model. I hope this is just the driver. It is possible that the device has been

    Hello

    strange that you can request that

    HP computers have been known to not let you install Vista on a non HP bought replacement hard drive

    There were a few posters with this problem here

    If the OEM disc for this particular laptop, you should be able to reinstall it as many times as you want as long as you have not changed the main material (the motherboard)

    You can change the hard drives, RAM, etc.

    I presume that you boot from the Vista DVD

  • I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says I need to 'enable '.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us

    I removed my xp hard drive to another computer and now it says that I have to 'activate' and when I try, I get a weird response and they all but hang up on me.  I used this drive for many years, even the screen shows a picture of my table with flowers in a vase.  What is going on?  How can I get this problem?

    Your hard drive, installed on a computer with Windows XP was preinstalled by the computer manufacturer? If this is the case, then you have a "OEM version" of Windows which is linked to the computer first it is installed on and cannot be moved or reinstalled on another computer.

    If however you have a "Commercial" of XP version that you bought in a store, then you should be able to activate by phone, be aware that move the drive from one computer to another is more often go to work and XP may have problems (device drivers and other issues). The best solution is a clean installation (after you back up your data files).

    my laptop is dying, I can move my hard drive to another computer and still use vista coa?

    Hello

    It depends on the type of license you have, as to whether you can transfer it or not.

    Pre-installed Licenses OEM (HP, Acer, etc.) and the Microsoft System Builder OEM licenses are tied to the first machine that they are installed on and channels of license when this machine dies.

    OEM licenses are not transferable.

    If you have purchased your own license for sale retail of Windows and installed yourself, yes you can transfer it to another computer.

    Retail licenses are transferable.

    Just be sure that you have only installed on one machine at a time.

    A single license means one Installation.

    And if it is retail and transfer you, in all likelihood will have to reinstall the operating system, as this disc hard the 'old' aura card mother drivers installed, which will cause starting problems.

    See you soon.

  • New hard drive in the PC and now can not see child PC in the Family Safety website

    Recently, we had to install a new hard drive in my son's PC.  I can confirm Family Safety is on his account, to block Web sites are blocked, delays are granted, and there is curfew in place.

    But when I connect to https://familysafety.microsoft.com I see my account on the PC, but I can't see me son under kids account.  I followed all the links, help is here.  I deleted and then re-created his account, the computer is approved, and I can see Family Safety is on his account, but I still don't see the PC as part of the children's section of https://familysafety.microsoft.com.

    Rohit:

    The wiki article was not a solution - but thank you.

    The problem is finally resolved when I could access MS FS through the settings on the PC.  It has a link to MS FS in settings FS (user) who has been for several weeks.  This must have been on the side of Microsoft since after accessing this link work then all the features of the FS.

  • If I buy a new hard drive reinstall my OS and Adobe apps, will be this indictment on 2nd computer installation?

    If I buy a new hard drive, or format my only current and the reinstall my OS and Adobe apps, this indictment than installing on a second "computer"? If so, then how can I do to install apps on a second computer if I'm unable to "de-register" one "first" because it was on an old hard drive?
