I just bought a refurbished with Windows 7 computer. I did a test drive of Works 9.0, and lacked features that I found.
I just bought a refurbished with Windows 7 computer. On my old XP computer, I used to use Word 97 and later also used a version of works that might have been 2004 (?). (Usually I only used word processing and Excel.)
I took a test drive of Works 9.0, and found features that I liked were missing, specifically:
- Previously with Word I could draw snazzy borders on the table cells, which some had graduated shading that looked almost like a real 3-d picture frame. These borders changed to something else (rather ugly) when I took an old Word 97 and load in Works 9.0 word processing document.
- With a table created in Word 97, it was easy to summarize a bunch of numbers that were all stacked in a column (or do other types of math). Could not do with the Works 9.0 word processor.
(These features were absent from Open Office as well, or at best have been tedious to use.)
Word usually has features more and better than the works (such as those mentioned above)?
Any suggestions on what I should use for word processing? Should not be the latest version, but should be compatible with Windows 7.
Office 2007 and later nothing will work on Windows 7 but do not expect the full set of features in Office 97. Office 2007 and beyond have their own sets of complete functionality... :-)
The problem is the purchase of older versions of Office. Microsoft does not provide them and you won't get one of them cheap.
Corel has always produced WordPerfect... http://www.WordPerfect.com/us/product/Office-suite/?sso_test=true
Free and Open Office are the alternatives...

PC refurbished with Windows XP preinstalled.character keys have been disabled
I bought a refurbished with pre-installed Windows PC. I was prompted to enter the product key to activate. I find the new COA product key, but I'm unable to type all the characters due to the keys on the PC being disabled by Microsoft during the registration process. Now what should I do?
Yes, it seems that you have a non-genuine product key. You might be able to phone activation, but probably not.

* Original title: Windows 10 disappointment
Recently, I bought a HP with Windows 10 Tower preloaded. I gave up 10. I would like to return to the Windows 7 desktop. If I buy or buy this software, I guess I have to 'wipe' 10 of my machine? Or I would just download 7 top? What I have found online are instructions for people who have updated to 10 and want to revert to an earlier version of windows. In my case, I never had an earlier version on the machine I have now. Is there place where I can get help with installing Windows 7? Online, local dealer? Thank you.
If I were you, I call HP and tell them that you do not want this computer with Win10. They are very likely still sells machines with Win7 for businesses, because most companies do not affect the Win10 with a 10 foot barge pole.
Dell is selling them for sure. I've been helping my clients by computers Dell Win7 for a very long time now and just had one on my desk a week ago. Look at the range of Dell Vostro of computers.
The trick is to approach Dell as a businessman, and not as a normal consumer.

I bought a laptop with windows 7 family, and updated Edition upgraded to windows 7 Professional, how can I buy the Windows 7 Professional Backup CD?
You can't (unless you want to buy it separately at full price).
Windows 7 uses the "anytime upgrade" feature Because Windows uses image based install now, technically you were always professional, you just had not unlocked it again by typing in the code. If you were ever to re - install your computer, you'd be at the publishing house and just simply type the code again (Don lose it!)
If you wish, you can create your own system image backup. It's more than a Windows installation disc. It is an exact replica of your entire hard drive, including all your programs and settings that you have configured. It's like a photo snapshot in time. This gives you a CD, you can use to immediately restore your computer to the point in time where the image was taken - even all your installation and installs.
If you want to create it, here's how:
- Open Control Panel
- Choose system and security
- Choose the backup and restore
- Choose to create a system image on the left

Just bought photoshop cs6 for windows and the installation received disc. Where do you find the serial number on the disc? This should start the serial number? The disc was in the original box and I see a number starting with 910...
The box was in a brown envelope, and it has sticker bar code on the back with more digits. Where should I look for the actual serial number.

I use a laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1220us with Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, a 64-bit operating system, and I have problems with Windows Update and Windows Installer. When I try to install programs, I get the following, or substantially similar message without the error code:
"Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Contact your support team. »
So I tried to download Windows Installer 4.5 and install it. When I try to start the installation, it always hangs on the first step, "Initializing Installation."
After searching for a solution to this problem, I found that Windows Update may have a solution. So I downloaded the 64 bit version and got a file named 'file Windows6. 0-KB942288-v2 - x 64. I tried to run this file. He opened a box that said, in order "Prepare for Installation", "Full Preparation", and finally "Searching for Updates ', before you open a second box, which reads" click OK to install the following Windows software update: fix for Windows (KB942288). I clicked on OK in this box, which opened another box, which says at the top "updates are installed" and in a smaller section, "initializing for Installation................... »
However, no matter how long it works, it never gets past "Setup initialization."... »
So I tried to run Windows Update in Control Panel. He ran for a while, before giving a message saying "to check the updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update." I clicked on the button that says "install now". He has flashed, a moment, "download and installation of updates' before you go to the"check for Updates"and then he brought back the exact same upward ' to check updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update" message as before. I clicked install now once again, only to go into the exact same loop. After about four times in a loop, I gave up on it.
So I tried to install Windows Installer 3.1v2, which took a while before saying "not enough memory is available to process this command." and the abandonment of the installation.
So, I tried to download a program from 'Mr. Fix - it' of Microsoft. It downloaded fine and then failed on installation, because of the same Setup error I received initially.
Finally, I tried to restart my computer and each solution is represented. Then I clean my computer and each solution is represented.
In conclusion, the mistakes that I have in Windows Update and Windows Installer cordoned off each other, as the mistakes of each program are based on the other program to be repaired. I'm at my wit's end here. My computer works fine without one, except that I can't install new programs. I can access the internet fine, access files fine, all my scans have developed own... I don't really know what is happening. Can someone help me with this?

I'm in Elements 8.0 on my desktop with Windows Vista — who purchased a laptop (Windows 10) now and copied the files across but get a message "the license for this product has stopped working - error 6'.
How I get working again?
Transfer from one machine to the other Adobe applications will not work. You must install using the installation files and the serial number, you have the initial purchase. It is possible that a program as old as PSE 8 won't install/work with a new operating system.
PSE 7, 8, 9 - http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-7-8-9-downloads.html
You can also download the demo version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important Instructions in the section on the pages of this site download and have cookies turned on in your browser, otherwise the download will not work correctly.

I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 I need to update my card in Adobe Reader, including, since my upgrade, some of my system requirements have changed but I'm not very familiar with these two versions of the Adobe Reader software gave me. They are English (1) 2015.008.20082 for Windows CD player and 2-Player 11.0.10 English for Windows. I would be very grateful if I could receive some tips which versions are the most compatible with my PC. Thank you very much.
Both versions are also compatible with Windows 10.
