install windows 8 with live ID vmware - trying to local switch to the MS account

Hello

Only, I ran into a problem, I installed Windows 8 on VMware workstation 9. When I ate lunch at the installation of VM, I entered my Live ID account created automatically when installing windows. I was hoping he would automatically as a Windows Live ID, but after installation I saw that my account was created as a local account, instead, I tried to click on 'Microsoft account switch', but I get an error indicating that a local account already exist with that account name. I tried to create a new local account and the newspaper on this account to delete my local account which is actually my live ID. I do not have the rights or I don't know how to do it.

Any advice?

Concerning

Thanks for your answers, I'm new to windows 8. What I have is this:

-Open all the app

-Right click on computer

-Manage

-Added my local account as an admministrator

-Deleted my live ID as a local account

Then I was able to make the switch to the Microsoft account option.

Now, everything is in harmony with my phone Win8 and LiveID.

Kind regards

    Hi Jeremy,.

    Thanks a lot for your help. You're right, I should have said no upgrades and updates.
    There were a total of 10 updates:
    4 a security updates for Vista,
    1 security update for the Microsoft 2010 information access path,
    1 day of cumulative security for IE9.
    1 windows Live essential 2011
    1 definition update Windows Defender (KB915597)
    1 "" for Office 2010 "
    1 April 2013 malware tool
    I uninstalled Windows Live Essentials. I felt that I should not uninstall the updates of security, and the Defender update can not be uninstalled. It made no difference.
    I also checked the graphics card and told me that I had the latest version of the software.
    Then I checked the configuration of the monitor and graphics card configuration and found I could set the configuration to full frame. I did it and now all is well again.
    How and why the full frame disappeared April 16 remains a mystery.
    Thank you very much for your information without your help I would have been unable to delve deeply into the system. I learned a lot.

  • I want to install the version of the windows license, so can I have a windows license, I have install windows 7 with this key?

    I have the windows product key 7 with my computer dell laptop. in recent years my brother using the pirated version. now, I want to install the version of the windows license, so can I have a windows license, I have install windows 7 with this key?

    Original title: windows 7

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

  • Can I use Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Family Pack (3 users) to install Windows 7 Edition home premium 64 on a desktop computer running the OEM version of Windows Vista Home Premium 32?

    My desktop system is an Acer E700 Intel Quad Core 2.4 GHz with 4 GB of RAM and 1 Gig video running Vista Home Premium OEM 32 version. I plan to upgrade the hard disk of 1 tetrabyte before upgrading the OS.  If so, how should I do this?  I have to restore the backup to disk to the new disk before update for Window 7 64?

    My second office is already running Vista Home Premium 64 so this upgrade using the family must be right before correct?  Or do I need to backup to the subject programs before moving to Win7 64?

    Thanks in advance.

    You will need to do a reformat to perform installation and you reinstall the applications.  There has never been a way to upgrade from x 86 to x 64.  You will need to do is use your x 64 media to install Windows 7 on new hard drive, use your product key on the certificate of authenticity located on the side of the Acer desktop computer.  You will always be the OEM license terms, as you install the same Windows SKU.  Product keys are interchangeable between x 86 and x 64, but you will probably need to call to activate Windows after installation - usually the Internet activation does not work on current versions of Windows using the seller great modes of action.

    I need to know how I can install InDesign CS6 with my newly purchased serial No. When I removed the trial version? In other words, I don't have the trial version any longer so I need the file/download files to connect serial number. I have CC as well but that shouldn't make a difference - I need to run InDesign CS6 of third-party plug-ins.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    If you bought the CS6 Indesign download at Adobe online, you can go ahead and sign you in to your Adobe account and navigate to 'My Adobe' > 'My orders' to locate the order, its download and serial number.

  • Clean install Windows 7 with UEFI in dv6-7215nr

    Hi, I would like to do a clean install of my HP dv6-7215nr Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 x 64 envy laptop.

    To this end, I have 3 questions to solve some installation issues.

    1. What are the steps to clean install Windows 7 SP1 Enterprise intact in UEFI mode?

    I tried to install Win 7 after the pre-requisites following:

    (a) not partitioned 200 GB free space on the disk (only 1 physical disk)

    (b) already installed Windows 8 files with UEFI

    (c) UEFI enabled

    (d) heritage disabled startup

    (e) secure boot disabled

    When I Boot in UEFI of CD/DVD, I can't switch to the Windows startup screen, it just hangs. What I am doing wrong? Is there any other prerequisites that I don't know?

    I tried to install UEFI with Legacy enabled Boot, and I installed win7 but I can't disable Legacy new Boot because Win7 boot and I want only the UEFI Boot and need for inheritance disabled.

    2. where can I download drivers for Windows 7 for my laptop?

    I found this topic:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/HP-envy-DV6-7210ei-downgrade-fr...

    They point to these drivers

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us & dlc = in & lc = in & product = 5273735 & task = &

    I think I could use these drivers, but I need just in case where. I guess they should work as the product names are roughly similar (with mine).

    3. is it possible to Secure Boot with Windows 7 SP1?

    I have no research on this so far.

    Thanks for the help that someone in the community can give to me, it is not important all the problems that I have set in I can still do research on questions 2 and 3 and help others with my research if I can do it before a response. Any info you can give me will be too great.

    Carlos

    (1) ' secure Boot' must be DISABLED and 'Legacy Support' must be ENABLED to install Windows 7 and many other older operating systems. The bootable media must support UEFI boot to install on a GPT-partitioned drive.

    You let people with DISABILITIES 'Secure Boot' (and 'Legacy Support' ENABLED) once you have installed Windows 7. Changing these options causes Windows 7 to start is no longer.

    (2) the Windows 7 drivers on the CTO Entertainment Notebook PC drivers HP Pavilion dv7t-7000 page you referenced, will work on your computer.

    (3) it is not possible to install or use Windows 7 with "Secure Boot" ACTIVE.

    WARNING *.

    HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a consumer computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP cannot provide the drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

    Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

    You will need to DISABLE 'Secure Boot' and ENABLE 'Legacy Support' in the 'Configuration of the BIOS start-up secured' on the page parameters below, until you try to install Windows 7.

    In addition, as the hard drive is probably partitioned as TPG, you must start the computer by using the "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" or "UEFI - USB Flash drive" options in the boot menu "F9". If "UEFI - CD/DVD drive", "UEFI - USB Flash drive" or something to that effect does not exist in the start menu, please post a screenshot and/or make startup listed options.

    I suggest using Windows 7 SP1 for the best installation experience. If you need Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own disc of Windows 7 SP1. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive. Please note that some computers may not recognize a valid active UEFI USB Flash drive if it is formatted in NTFS and may require only a FAT32 formatted USB Flash drive. You should be able to make a FAT32 formatted Windows 7 installation USB Flash drive using Rufus, UNetbootin, Universal USB Installeror WiNToBootic. I like Rufus, because it contains options for 'Plan of GPT partition for UEFI computer' and 'FAT32'.

    If you have missing or unknown devices after installing the drivers, please post to the "Hardware ID" Device Manager (just the text string will do) to these devices as shown in the example below.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Can I install Windows XP with a different CD than the recovery CD?

    A friend of a friend ;) has a 5200 satellite. He hides a very bad virus on his book, witch, I couldn't remove after 2 hours of work, so I would like to install Windows in order to "clean up" the system. The problem is: it is just to visit here, and his recovery CD is in his hometown, so I don't have the recovery CD.

    My question: can I use any other Windows XP CD - and then use the key, that I can find under the laptop? Must it be a 'home' - CD too, or work any CD - or ONLY a Toshiba Recovery CD won't work?

    It is important for him - if that doesn't work he'll buy a new Windows XP in the next 2 days. Because he pays me a little bit for my work, I can just try and then try again the next day or so.

    PS: How much is a new recovery-CD - ONLY the CD - when I buy a Toshiba dealer? I live in Germany.

    Thank you

    For the installation of the OS, you can use what you want. If you don't have a recovery media, you can use the facilities of Microsoft CD. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can find on Toshiba supports the page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com support & downloads.

    It is very important to install everything in the order of good facilities. If you need further assistance please write again.
