Ideas: final of my wife's PC crashed after 10 years. I want to build a new PC. I installed win. XP about 3 years ago. Can I use the software of the victory. XP on a new computer?

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

If you have uninstalled from the computer that you built three years ago, then you can legally install it on another machine.

If the disc you have is an OEM disc, then in theory you cannot put it on anything other than the original machine as it is only allowed for the machine he was provided with the question if you have uninstalled it or not.

  • My original OS 7 Home Basic Edition (purchased): problem of Installation of Win 10

    Windows has AUTOMATICALLY upgraded to Win Ultimate who, as the replies received from your good end, has been described as false.

    To date, I had downloaded (free) Win 10, but when installing, I received a msg stating putting touches of the original VER of Win 7 Home Basic Edition (which I bought) and then click Refresh.

    Please notify: (a) I would require to REINSTALL my house 7 the CD database (since upgraded Ultimate is false since it was produced Acer OEM - SLP Win 7 Ultimate, and mine is customer built Gigabyte motherboard) before Win 10 could be installed.

    (b) if I didn't need to REINSTALL WIN 7 Home Basic, then how and where to insert the product keys (for Win 7 home basic) to allow the installation of win 10?

    Windows 7 can not auto-level to a ultimate edition. He must intentionally upgraded or a non-genuine Windows 7 Ultimate product key has been used for the Express upgrade.

    Your best option is to reinstall Home Basic, reactivate and then upgrade.

  • BSOD after fresh installation of Win 7, failure of page in the nonpaged area. Win 7 will not install

    A day at the start of a program on my computer that I used for years without incident, the computer suddenly fell down, restarted, and I got the infinite loop of system repair. No change in hardware/software, don't know if a recent Windows Update has been installed. Once again, CPU, mobo, Vid, RAM are the same for the past 4 years.

    After much frustration, I decided to just reinstall Win 7. So I deleted my partition, re-created a new partition and installed Win 7

    In the last step of the process of installing Win 7, it says Setup cannot complete. It is then stuck in a loop of reboot with a BSOD page fault in non paged area.

    I tried F8 on startup and choose Safe mode, but then he says that the installer cannot boot mode safe because the installation of Win 7 did not finish.

    I tried to reinstall Win7 by removing the disc again, but I get the same results.

    What can I do?

    HI - finally got the job. I had the computer to use only the GPU on board BIOS and was able to install. Somehow the graphics driver conflict when Windows is first installed and it kept crashing.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Trying to regenerate my installation of WIN 8

    I am trying to update my installation of WIN 8. I have problems of pilot (optical drive and virtual disks) and I hope that this will help with.

    When I try to WIN 8, it says that some files are missing, and I need to insert my media. It is a download and I have no disc to be inserted.
    When I try to run the original downloaded file (Windows8 - Setup.exe), she prays for my product key. When I give him the key, it tells me that the key is an upgrade, and I can't move forward.
    What I have going on here?

    Thank you, Mary Therese K... With the help of another forum, I managed to get a new product code. With that, I used my previously downloaded file to renew my program to WIN 8. By doing this I have now all my back drivers where they belong and everything seems to be fine.

  • Question about the installation of Win XP on Satellite Pro P200

    Hello

    It's a difficult topic-> XP on Vista machines.

    First: Yes, you can install XP on it because all the important factors are available (VGA, SATA, wireless, XP BIOS, BLUETOOTH) and that should be enough.

    Because your computer has a BIOS for Vista (I guess there a) Please install the BIOS XP first and then start the installation of XP. In the case that your HARD drive is not recognized then you need to install the SATA driver during the installation of windows XP. The procedure is described in the statement of the Satellite L40-> XP installation, so if you want to install and problems SATA (HDD, not during the XP installation), you must check the installation instructions for Windows XP for a SATELLITE L40!

    If you have additional questions, I recommend allows you to place your question here before doing something that may stop your nerves later. :)

  • Problem with the Installation of JAVA in my new Dell running Windows 7

    Problem with the Installation of JAVA in my new Dell running Windows 7 - error message when you try to intall Java using Chrome.

    "lib'charsets.jar: old file not found."  However, a file of the same name was found.  No updates since the contents of the file do not match. »

    Then "Java update fails to apply the changes to your system."

    Then "error 1722.  There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A fun program as part of the Setup did not finish as expected.

    Earlier, I had a problem with the video and had Windows reinstalled 7.  Now my AOL games don't show/reading.  JAVA said error 1722 is an InstallShield error code. It indicates that the installation process has failed. The exact reason for this error is not known at this time.  I was told to uninstall JRE (Java Runtime Environment).  I find two versions of Java on my system (no JRE) - Java (TM) 6 - update 14 and 14 (64-bit).  Should I uninstall both?... OR WHAT?

    Hi Betty48228,

    Here's how to solve your problem:
    (1) uninstall all versions of Java.
    (2) the uninstall will probably fail. If so, get Revo Uninstaller free http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.htmland uninstall Java in advanced mode (integrated Java uninstaller runs, failure and then Revo will delete everthing manually). You will need to restart your PC.
    (3) reinstall Java: http://java.com/en/download/

    Welcome @HELPMEPLSHSLOL,

    Thank you for your participation in the forums! I see that you are getting the error "new device is now connected" when you try to install the printer software. I'd love to help you.

    If you are using Windows and you're using a USB connection, try the steps in this document: HP Laserjet products - "Device setup has not completed" or the "Unknown device" Message appears in Windows during Installation of USB. If the printer will not be updated of the Manager of devices in the two Solution, make a right click and uninstall the print device. It may be listed as unknown device, USB or Laserjet M1132 print media. Disconnect, then reconnect the USB cable to see if it will continue the installation. If it is not that whatever it is listed for your printer, try another USB port directly on the computer or another USB cable.

    What operating system do you use? How to find the Windows Edition and the Version on your computer.

    How is the printer connected?
