• Is it legal for a company to use Windows XP Home Edition computers to connect to a database via telnet?

  Is it legal to a company to operate with a number of XP Home licenses within its walls?  They have no area and just use the PC to connect to a database by using the telnet session.

  I am trying to contact a specialist licenses at the FTC to find a legal response.  I have a side job with a number of Home XP licenses on the network, and I want to ensure that my ass is covered.

  As others have stated that it is not a question of law, as long as the permit themselves are valid for the PC on which are installed, but it may be a technique.

  I have supported similar situations in the past and the most common problem is when an application is purchased that requires the use of the network domain, which does not support Windows Home.  This can create significant problems and require either the replacement of the operating systems including the manual reinstallation because the House cannot be "upgraded" to the Pro or complete each PC replacement since Windows XP is no longer available for sale.

  As long as he does not intend to replace the line in business application and telnet is all that is necessary for access, this will not be a problem.  But if they have to start to discuss some new core business app, remember to start with this caveat and the likely need to replace all these systems Windows family based as part of the switch.  It's probably necessary anyway, since these Windows XP systems will be is no longer supported by Microsoft after April 2014.

• Is it legal to use the Edition to windows 7 Home premium, System Builder for my own personal use in computer I'm building?

  Title says it all... I am doing only this one computer for me to use... I love Windows 7, do not want to move to 8, and Amazon sells only the System Builder of the present version.

  Free legal advice is worth what you pay for it.

  That said, you can read what Microsoft says about his license OEM System Builder for Windows 7 (it's different for Windows 8) and decide for yourself what you want to do.

  You can contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  Manufacturers that make normally for a fee.

  Install Windows 8 could destroy this method:

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your laptop there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Them or us ask the right sequence of key.

  Or download the correct ISO file and make your own drive and use the product key located on the COA sticker.

• Call about my pirate... Windows?

  Win 7 on our laptop started running really slow the other day.  The next day, we start getting calls at home, which I answered and told me that our real Windows 7 has been hijacked and is running in two cities in the Canada. Always suspicious Internet such things, I did not believe the appellant and told her.  Now, I'm worried and need to contact Microsoft directly to have it checked... .or not?

  This is obviously a scam call. If your Windows has been determined to be non-genuine, it would be just that, not authentic and you can buy a product key, you would be directed to the following Web site to:

• Is it legal to download an ERD in Windows 8?

  Hi people,

  I had a lot of problems of cloning of HARD drive to my laptop with Windows 8 for one SSD after-market. My last attempt was to follow the article below, I found in this forum:

  http://www.ssdfreaks.com/content/664/how-to-clone-HDD-to-SSD-with-Windows-7s-own-software

  Unfortunately, Windows 8 refuses to create an ERD for me (-error "the parameter is incorrect (0 x 80070057) '), maybe because I removed some HARD drive partitions even if the article says to do. This is necessary to complete the instructions in this article.

  Is it legitimate to download a disk to repair Windows 8 on the internet because I can't build my own? Without this disc, I can't transfer Windows 8 on my SSD and I might be back to Windows 7 because I appreciate the performance gains of an SSD on all features of Windows 8. However, I desperately want to have my cake and eat it :), but am running out of ideas.

  Any thoughts would be appreciated kindly.

  Kind regards

• no option of legal size in officejet 8600

  Hi people,

  My Officejet Pro 8600 Plus does not show an option for print legal size paper in the settings window. He concluded "Automatic" watch and otherswhich are not legal.

  By selecting the "Automatic" option, it only prints the format letter from the bed of glass or the status bar.

• Selling Machines with Windows 7 activation w / COA, legality

  Hi-

  I have trouble finding a direct response to my question about multiple resale (even) of the PC with Windows 7. HP sent me to Microsoft, Microsoft sent me to HP.

  I'm not a repairman, I work for a dealer. I received multiple quantities of a specific model of computer. I want to do is to install Windows 7 Professional using the COA affixed to the case. Each machine has a certificate of authenticity there are affixed, and each machine is HP branded. The hard drives were all cleared security so no media recovery or recovery partitions do exist.

  Is there a legal way for me to install Windows 7 using a HP brand OEM operating system DVD, P/N: 650434 - DN3?

  This package contains the correct distribution of Windows 7 to match the COA key on machines. I understand that this is not the original recovery that may have been shipped with the PC media, but it is a real real disk HP to match the brand HP machines.

  I would like to sell these PC with the operating system installed, but no recovery media, no recovery partition and no end-user support. I understand how to access the audit mode and am familiar with sysprep so that the end user accepts the license agreement and can complete the entire upward as if it was an out of the box for them purchase.

  Please help me understand what it would take and how we can legally resell with Windows 7 OS installed and activated using the COA affixed to each device, if it is legal and possible to the PC.

  Thank you!

  As long as it's the correct edition that corresponds to what is stated on the COA sticker attached to the machine, it should not be a problem.

• the legal status of my windows

  Excuse me, I would like to ask you a question

  [1] if I bought a CD of windows 7 ultimate and I lost the cd but I still have my COA, and I want to reinstall windows on my netbook, it is LEGAL if I DOWNLOAD THE COPY INTACTE DE WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE on the internet and activate it with my license COST? What is the reason? because I have anna use ORIGINAL and LEGAL copy windows :)

  [2] if the answer to question 1 St as LEGAL, where can I download the windows 7 ultimate ISO CD?

  Thank you for your attention, please respond immediately and Clare as possible

  I'm not aware of Netbooks pre-loaded with Windows 7 Ultimate.

  The sticker COSTS says Windows 7 Ultimate? If doesn't work, then downloading or obtaining a Windows 7 Ultimate retail installation media will not solve the problems with the license compliance. Unless you actually bought a genuine Windows 7 Ultimate license which you do not have a product key for.

  I don't know Netbooks preloaded with Windows 7 Starter, except if you have defined more precisely you want Ultimate pre-installed at the factory.

  Unfortunately, your options are limited, because Microsoft no longer provides that Digital River Windows 7 downloads. ISO. So, your options are the following:

  -Borrow a Windows 7 Ultimate retail (update or full version) or an OEM System Builder DVD from a friend who has a.

  -Try to ask the support of Microsoft backup.

• Automatic paper size does not recognize the legal papers

  I'm unable to use the sutomatic scan legal size paper size it scan only as letter size, cut the rest of the image.

  I use a fi-6230Z with Twin drivers. When assign legal it ignores the analysis the letter and legal in the legal size.

  I use Windows 7 and Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.3

  Acrobat uses the setting of the scanner when the paper size is set to "auto". This does not mean that Acrobat is the size of the paper you are scanning. So if your scanner setting is set to "Letter" paper size is set to "Auto", Acrobat will get the size letter only.

  Thank you

• Satellite Pro M200 - cannot start Windows

  I have a Satellite Pro M200 PSMC4A, did an update Windows, requsted to restart, then the black screen as follows:
  Windows could not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. Equip the installtion disk and restart. Problem 1: having no disk - lost I think. Lost file is \Boot\BCD.

  Tried different legal remedies without success. Disk Windows XP used to reinstall but now says cannot see all hard drives!
  All of the suggestions.

  Hello

  You can access the advanced boot menu? If so, you should try to start in charge more than the last known good configuration.
  If this is not the only option is to reinstall Windows I think. Therefore, you can take a Microsoft or Toshiba drive. If you don t have the Toshiba disk recovery, contact the service provider authorized in your country.

  I think that the recognized HARD wasn t disc because you need SATA drivers. Did you check that?

• Portege R400 - I want to downgrade to XP

  Toshiba Portege R400, I bought over a year ago.
  He had installed vista and I ve worked about a month, but after installing a lot of software on I ve been working VERY SLOW.
  I decided to downgrade to XP, but Toshiba don t provide a downgrade installation media.
  Then contacted Microsoft official support and get an answer: you can use any legal installation media to downgrade.

  And when I asked to double activation I have another solution: I m contact Microsoft activation while support and explain my situation and tell my Vista CD key. They activate my Windows XP manually.

  It of so difficult to find support for Windows XP tablet pc in Russia in my city. But I ve found a friend and is like I said. Everything worked perfectly.

  But not for long, I have my Windows crashed and had to reinstall it. But now without any legal support original.
  After installing Windows XP SP3 I have a message on the the validation failure.

  I have more mates with any legal Windows XP tablet pc CD.
  I DO NOT WANT to buy another OS to this laptop I ve already have Windows Vista Ultimate with downgrade rights.

  I want an answer, what will I do with 'illegal' Windows on my Portege because Microsoft says its manufacturer that provides legal downgrade.

  I put t want more Vista I ve tried it on PC and it works perfectly, but on this laptop, it is very slow work of BONE

  Hello

  You said that your laptop has been delivered and pre-installed with the Vista operating system.
  In this case, you can only get a Toshiba Recovery Vista disc.
  If you need another OS, you must purchase a full version.

  But I have other important information for you; in you are going to install Windows XP on the R400, then you need to search in internet compatible drivers because it seems that the Win XP drivers have been released for the R400 not at this time.

  Unfortunately, I have no other news for you

• WARNING: 0115 714 2007 telephone calls are a scam!

  I just had a lucky escape, I received a call from an Asian guy apparently called to tell me that my computer was blinking warnings in the control center of Microsoft, he said was a technician Windows & called to correct the problem, delete the hackers who accessed my computer.

  I was very suspicious that I had received several emails to alert & error that turned out to be false. I have him asked to prove that he was calling from Windows, it gave my license number & showed me several pages pirate so-called programs (windows run-info), also a page that lists warnings & errors. He wanted me to enter a 6 digit of my product ID code, in a support site that was when I realized they were going to access my computer remotely... I took this number (0115-714-2007) & said I would like to remind, I called a computer friend who verified that I had escaped just a scam.

  I would like to know how they got my number & if these people had sent e-mails to alert & original mistake, which meant that they also had my cell phone number to which they sent several codes... Is there anyone I can tell you this too, these people must be stopped!

  What are the elements of material should I register to legally sell a copy not used Windows XP Professional I bought online on a website.

  It is a manufacturer OEM (OEM) copy the CD?

  If it's just a copy of the retail sale, then there is no requirement at all. You have the right of first sale.
