  • Old computer is dead, HARD drive still alive. Can I install windows 7 on your new computer without formatting the old HARD drive?

    My old desktop computer recently died of a motherboard failure.  As I understand it, I should be able to install windows 7 from my old computer to the new, but only if I delete the old installation.

    Does this mean that I have to format the old HARD drive?  Because the old computer HARD drive seems to be alive, I would retrieve the data on a new machine first, before I have to format and I need to install windows on the new computer to get the data from the old HARD drive.

    No, it is taken on trust that the old installation is no longer active, there is no mechanism to remove the old license in order to make a valid new. Remove the Windows directory (or rename) makes the old system inoperative.

    You find that the automatic authentication fails on new construction and need to call the licensing Center to check that you have only one installation. Apart from the OEM rules if a license has been activated too often, and recently, it fails in a 1 time.

  • Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer?

    Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer?  I currently use Windows Journal to teach by posting paper documents on a smart board.  The administration requires me to switch to a Mac, but I don't want to lose the Journal and its capabilities.  I will not need to use a pen on the computer, I use the stylus on the smart board.  I would buy the windows software of newspaper and try to download on a Mac.  Can I order windows software log?

    You have two problems here:

    1. Programs Windows cannot be installed on a Mac.
    2. Windows Journal is not available as a separate program.

    If the Administration allows it, you can install Windows on a Mac with Mac OS X. Then, there are two ways to access the applications Windows explained here:

  • I installed windows 7 and the desktop icons and bar tasks are enormous

    Original title: Windows 7

    I installed windows 7 and the desktop icons and bar tasks are enormous, go to Web pages, I have to use the scrollbar at the bottom of page to see the other half of the page - he said could also be a driver problem, but don't know what I'm looking for - someone can help?

    Hello

    Yes, well part of the problem from the point of view of Dell is the only "acceptable" operating system for the Office of series 4600 XP. So they have no drivers 'official' for any function of Windows 7!

    But first I need more information on the video card. Try this (on the Dell site): 4600 system is supplied either with the built-in car video or a dedicated real card video.  You should know that you got.  Right-click of your mouse on the desktop, click on Properties in the next area, you see.  This will bring you into the display properties.  Now click on settings at the top right of this next area, click Next on the advance .  Now, click on the adapter on the top.  Just below the upper on this last box, you will see your listed video adapter.

    You will need this information, regardless of where you get help. My best recommendation is that you go to the community of Dell and after a question here. Someone may have already found one, but there is nothing official since the operating system is not officially supported.

    I'm sorry, there is nothing more I can do.

    Kind regards

  • How to install Windows 7 on several desktop computers?

    I would like information about how to install Windows 7 on desktop sixteen I just built.

    I build them from scratch. I want to know how to install Windows 7 on them.

    What type of disc do I need to buy... Do I have to buy 16 disks in Windows 7... or is there a simpler solution?

    OK, I'll look into the full retail version. That means, correct me if I'm wrong, what with the commercial full version Windows, I can install it on all built I want, as many times I want, it just cannot be installed on multiple computers that is active.

    No, incorrect.

    Full version (retail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    But, even once, correct me if I'm wrong, OEM, once the computer version dies, the OEM licenses dies with him, and I'll need to buy another license... Fix?

    Fix

    So my best bet would be to go with the full retail version of Windows 7?

    Depends on, which is why it is best to get full retail Windows 7, but they are difficult to obtain.

    What version of Windows 7 System Builder? I've never heard of this, but I see it at Walmart.com, etc..

    System Builder - aka OEM license.
