  • I lost my CD of Windows XP OEM for system integrator, but still have the cd - key

    Hello

    My system is corrupt and I need to reinstall Windows XP Professional on my computer.

    I have lost my Windows XP Professional OEM cd, if I still have the cd - key.

    Anyway, or no matter what number I can contact to get a new cd or other alternatives?

    Thank you very much

    New CD no longer exists.

    Since you still have the valid key, you need to somehow know is how to get one of these CDs. If you're lucky, you know someone who has one. It will work with your key. But it must be authentic, of course!
    If a friend of yours and if they give you an image .iso of it, then you must verify that these are the hash values:

  • I had a HP with XP Media Edition on this, got angry and destroyed someday drive hard, but always have the key, the key will work on another form of XP?

    As I said, I always have the key for it. But does not know if the key will work on just a normal copy of Windows XP? Also cannot find a download of XP? Guess that's what happens when you wait 17 years to ask about it.

    If your computer was HP and it came with this version of Windows installed, then you probably have an OEM of Windows version.  An OEM key does not work for a retail install the version of Windows.  To reinstall Windows without owning a set of install CD/DVD from HP, you will need to contact HP for help as they regulate the licenses Windows installed on their products.

  • Lost copy and latest features in windows xp, start all related services, but still have the same problem

    I noticed that when I tried to paste text from one place to another it would not work.  Option paste came up but when I cliked on this matter nothing happened.  Somewhere else when I pasted I got which was in memory of the last time I had copy and pasted, but what I had copied just does not paste.pasted.

    OK NEVER MIND.  I GUESS I HAD TO REBOOT OR SOMETHING BUT IF YOU CAN ME SAY WHY WOULD GOOD.
    THANX.

    When you work with technology, literally anything can break in all possible ways, and also thanks to technology, reboot usually solves the problem. Because of this, there is no way of knowing what did copy / paste to stop working, but I doubt it will happen again any time soon. And if so, reboot will most likely fix it.

    However if she happen, or even several times, then you are looking at a deeper problem that will need to be fixed. If that presents arrive just another question and we'll work to help solve the problem.

  • Music files lost on PC, but still on the phone

    Hi, for some reason any selection of music files (not all) went from my PC when even records are still show here. However, the files are still on my Z3 Xperia SD card and play very well, but I can't transfer them here back to my PC... it's weird! I tried moving them via PC Companion and Media Go, but no luck.

    Is there any other way of pulling the files on my PC?

    Tony

    You mean you don't see all of the files when you open the folder in the phone which contains the files in Windows Explorer?

    If Yes, go to settings-> Apps-> all-> storage media-> clear data-> OK and then reboot the phone (this will not delete your files). The phone will then rescan all your media (this can take some time if you have a lot of media files). Then check the PC again. You should be able to copy them by drag and drop in Explorer.

    If it is an edition of 2007, then you will need to borrow another cd.  Don't forget to copy the cd for yourself.

    If you have some time this is probably a 2007 edition.

  • Install Firefox 31 point 8.1 of Windows just gives a blank screen and the error "not responding".

    31 Firefox has been installed and works perfectly on my Asus laptop under win 8.1, until this morning. I opened the browser and just got a white screen. The Task Manager showed Firefox as "not responding". I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox twice, as an administrator, try 'reset Firefox' the second time. No change. I downloaded Firefox 29 and could install. It opens but freezes and unresponsive, as soon as I get a web address. I'm stumped, as Firefox worked perfectly until this morning. Someone had the same problem and, better yet, found a solution?

    It could be the work of one of your modules, or even add / bad-ware.
    Look through your list of modules and make sure you know what each of them is
    and what it does. In addition, to check the programs that are on your computer

    Windows: Start > Control Panel > uninstall programs.
    Mac: Open the folder "Applications".
    Linux:

    • Ubuntu unity {web link}
    • Xfce: Category for the Applications Menu items
    • options depends on the package and the desktop environment Manager

    Go through the list. If you find something that you do not
    know what it is, use a search on the web.

  • I just got a black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine".

    Original title: OS not real question?

    Well, I bought a computer off Craig's list this week. Yes, I know this isn't the safest place to get a computer, but what's done is done. The current operating system of the computer is Win7. However I just got the black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine". I looked at the back of the computer and saw that he has a real sticker Win XP Pro. So is there anyway I can just download XP Pro on this computer and be good from there?

    Thank you

    Check with the manufacture of the computer to see if you have a "recovery partition" and how to use it to restore XP or if they still have the support of Windows XP available with they can send you to usually a small fee.

  • I just got a call from somewhere in India that I have problems with my computer.

    Original title: hoax call?

    I just got a call from somewhere in India that I have problems with my computer. They know this, because I have generated error reports. When I asked how I could be sure who they were they led me to a screen with a ref to no error report. and he cites correctly for me. When I was asked to sign up for control of my computer for them to correct these errors, I refused and hung up. What happens with all those errors that we report to microsoft when our computers generate the error reports and how these appellants knew my error report reference.

    Such unsolicited telephone calls are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, donot give access to your PC, not give them all the money and donot go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

    Error reports contain no personally identifiable information. These people are hoping that your system recently sent to Microsoft to make their call seems more legitimate.
