Laptop using Windows key to install Windows on another CD of license

Hi all.

I'm from Portugal, if my laptop came with a recovery dvd that installs Windows XP Home Edition in Portuguese language.
My question is: is it possible to install Windows XP Home English from a different CD (no not via the dvd recovery) and continue to use the license key of windows that comes with the laptop?

for example, is the license key for laptop for Windows XP Home Edition (any language) or specifically for Windows XP Home Portuguese?

Thankx in advance!

Hello

NO, it is not possible to s. The key that is located on the cover of the CD is not activation key for Windows OS. This key you use to activate the Microsoft OneNote, which is preinstalled on the image of Toshiba.

More info. :
Usually, the image of Toshiba is already activated and you n t need to activate the image of Toshiba.

  • twinkling of intermittent screen on laptop: using windows vista

    Hello
    I use Windows Vista on my laptop about 2 years back (HP dv5 series)
    All of a sudden a week, the screen started to Flash intermittently... it almost goes running with all the white lines, for a second or two... and then stops himself. Sometimes it happens very frequently, like three times in an hour, and sometimes not even once in 3 hours.  Windows Update is on and all the drivers to date by themselves.
    I tried restoring the system to a date before I started having the problem on my laptop. It worked fine for a day, and then the problem started again.
    Can someone please suggest what to do? In addition, this flicker of the screen would lead any type of damage to the screen if not checked soon? My laptop is out of warranty and I'm not sure what to do.
    Thank you

    Hello

    drivers are normally specific model

    and HP provides the drivers for their products

    so, you need to ask HP if you can swap the drivers around model to model

    and Yes to keep an eye on what the drivers left 3rd update windows wants to install on you!

    Have you read the second part of my first answer?

    "I have frequent power outages in my residential area.

    The blackouts, unfortunately, can damage equipment.

    If the problem persists after you have reinstalled Audio drivers, I suggest you have the machine looked at by a Toshiba Service Agent if under warranty.

    If it is under warranty, contact a local and reputable computer repairer and ask them to test

    just bought a new hp laptop. Tried to download Microsoft 2010 by.. activation key with and without hyphens. Have the cd too, but has not installed with cd. can someone tell me how to install it

    Microsoft has built many things in 2010... you talk about Microsoft Office 2010?  I guess that Yes.

    In any case, the activation of the CD key works only if you use the CD.  You will not be able to download it from the site and then use the key from the CD.  You must use the CD.

  • How can I install Age of Empires 3 (for XP) on my laptop using Windows 7?

    I was SO excited to finally get a laptop (Asus K series) game with a quality graphics card, a serious upgrade from my old Dell Inspiron. I was disappointed, however, after discovering the lack of compatibility and therefore the obstacle to play, with Age of Empires 3 fantastic games.  I would really like to play the game as it was meant to be played, but I have no idea how to install it.

    Is there a compatibility program I can run, or a shortcut through it all?

    Thank you!

    ~ archaeknight

    I found this on the forums of AoE, it seems reasonable:

    When you install the game on Windows 7 won't allow the CD autoplay but rather explore and click on setup.exe, and select 'run as administrator '. After that the game installs explore the directory of Age of Empires and find the application, create a shortcut for it and in the properties of the shortcut, check both boxes "Run as Administrator" and set the compatibility "Windows XP, Service Pack 3.

  • to use my android with my laptop using Windows phone 7 to access the internet via my mobile network without wifi

    I tried to use pdanet as well as samsung software to activate droid to attach it to my computer and allow my computer to use my mobile network (no wifi).  can't seem to make this work.  my computer shows the phone droid as a recognized device.

    Sorry was a little confused, you ask a question on a Microsoft Forum Android.

    On android, you try to perform a "tie".  Depending on your operator, which may require add them a feature to your account to make it work.  There are several applications out there, that you can use to root your phone to install applications that will try to fake on the carrier.  Here's a piece of Security Council 'Root never your phone', it will cause problems and make you more vulnerable to exploitation thereafter.

    But back to tie, I guess that you do not want to pay for an app for a quick search of the Amazon AppStore poster a few promising ones:

  • Disconnect external USB key using Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit

    Whatever the USB that I connect to my desktop PC Windows 7 continualy disconnects readers. I tested many drives, but when tested on my laptop using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit all these exact same drives work perfectly.

    My office is using and Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz with 3 GB of memory.

    I've read this complaint anywhere on the Internet and I tried several fixes with no positive results. All the drivers are up to date. I uninstalled and reinstalled until I'm blue in the face.

    What I read during my research, it seems that this is a common problem that 64-bit users are complaining a lot, but that's obviously a problem with the 32-bit version of Windows 7 as well. Many tech Internet sites also claim that it is ONLY a problem on the desktop and not on laptops, which I guess I confirmed in my tests.

    Everyone does experience, and if anyone has found a fix?

    Thank you.

  • wireless connection from the laptop to the tv using windows

    I saw a commercial stating that we can connect on tv to our WIFI laptop using windows 7. I can't understand how do... Can someone help me please? :/

    To simply connect to TV with no other device the TV must support DLNA and be connected to your network.  Once you have that in place, you can use the Play To feature to send content to the TV of any Windows 7 machine on your network.
