If the purchase of a laptop on eBay, if she is not a COA sticker, is still a legal installation of Windows?

I want to buy a laptop on ebay. I asked the seller if the laptop has the license on the side sticker of her reversise and if the version of windows 7 was legitimate.  I was told:

"Dear buyer, the unit does not have a license on the lapel sticker, but it will have a license Windows 7 installed. We also give you the keys for your records. »

Is this legal?  Do I need a permit sticker?

* original title - do I need a license on a laptop sticker? *

Hi chrisyy,

What brand of laptop computer?

Each copy of Windows sold will have a certificate of authenticity (COA) with what comes in the form of a sticker on the machine.

The sticker is delivered with the new laptops/computers desktop computers.

If you bought a laptop computer, then you can or cannot get the sticker because it depends on the seller if they did or not.

However, I recommend you contact the manufacturer of the computer directly for more information.

Hope the helps of information.

Please post back and we do know.

    Hello Purplehaze412,

    Thank you for your message.  What kind of microphone do you have?  It's USB or it plug into the microphone as the speakers or headphones port?
    If it uses the headphone:
    Click "Start" > click on "Control Panel" > double-click "sounds and Audio devices".
    Select the tab "Audio".
    Under "Sound recording" you can change the default device?
    If it is USB, try the following:
    Click 'Start' > right click on 'My computer' > select 'manage '.
    Select "Device Manager".
    Double-click "USB" - remove your device microphone, remove the microphone, then plug it back to recognize.
    We can't wait to hear back on your part.
    See you soon

    Hi sativa66,

    Try these steps and check if you get the headphones:

    1. open the control panel. (Classic view)

    NOTE: open the start menu and click on the menu button of the control panel.

    2. click on the audio icon.

    3. click on the recording tab.

    NOTE: this also works on the reading tab, but there are usually no hidden audio devices there.

    4. right click on an empty area and click Show disabled devices.

    5. you will now see the audio devices disabled with the arrow pointing down on them.

    NOTE: these audio devices may vary depending on the installed audio card or chip you have.

    6. right-click on each listed off audio device that you want to activate and click Activate.

    7. Once you activate the device, you will see the headset.

    NOTE: you can now change the property settings on these audio devices in the way you want.

    8. click OK to close the sound window.

    Kind regards

  • How can I find out the date of the purchase of my laptop?

    Hello guys

    I bought a laptop Toshiba of Extra business @ Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
    & I want to know how can I know the Date of purchase of this one because I missed the payment invoice & when I register my laptop Toshiba web site he asks me about the Date of purchase.

    Please help me
    Thank you very much
    Good bye

    Don t think you can find the date of purchase.
    Where this should know without a payment of invoices or sales controls.

    What you can do is when the laptop has been recorded on page of Toshiba.

  • Re: First steps after the purchase of a laptop?

    Hello
    We bought a Satellite A500-GL for my 17yo son.

    I could ask for advice on what needs to be done on the laptop it whips away before he spends hours playing with it!

    I know there will be some user guides etc there to do this, but there not the patience to sit and wait while we wait until he does, and as it is sealed, we can't not look beforehand.

    I know that Anti virus/Internet security protection will be a. Can you offer me anything else e.g. recovery disks or the laptop are provided?

    Thank you very much

    What you need to do is follow:
    # Connect your laptop on AC power and after 10 minutes departure for laptop for the first time
    # Complete the installation of the OS recovery
    # When the operating system is loaded create restore DVD. For this I recommend you use DVD-R media
    # When the recovery disk is created your son must click around a bit to see what kind of things is installed it is
    # Connect the laptop to the internet and install the latest updates. Be careful with this. do not install the optional updates.
    # your son can then remove some system software if it doesn't like it.

    Please note: on the second partition is saved in the folder called HDDRecovery recovery image. These data are very important and you can do HARD installation operating system drive recovery (without using the recovery DVDs). How it can be done is described in this document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    If this file will be removed or deleted, you won't be able to create recovery DVDs or use installation of HARD drive recovery.

    ·          The question started after the screen was broken?

    Step 1: I suggest you to connect an external monitor and see if the problem still occurs.

    Step 2: Disconnect any external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) drives, etc...) Except the keyboard and mouse) and then start.

    Your license for the 4.4 release will not work with version 5.7, you can download it without doubt, but if you do not have version 5.7 download then it won't do much good.  If you do not have a license for it so you won't be able to use it beyond use of the trial.

    Hello

    1. which version of the Windows operating system is installed on the computer?

    2. What is the exact application you're talking about?

    Router monitor is a tool that allows you to control the router that you are connected to and see the other IP connected as well as other important details.  He usually don't know the details on a Web page he's been watching just the traffic lights. However, some routers have the ability to connect what websites is visited and how much time is spent and how much bandwidth has been used.

    Therefore, you can also contact the manufacturer of the software for more details on the subject.
