Learning windows

Have not used a computer since 1999 - the latest os has windos 95 (using an android Tablet for the question) - picked up a laptop much cheaper that a fee of good camera android market today (?) - comes with windows 8.1 - upgrade to windows comes with his - my question - since I have to relearn how to a windows operating system - is more sensible to learn 8.1 then upgrade or upgrade to 10 and then through the learning process only once? TKS for any response.

I think you mean that you have not used a computer widows since 1999. A
tablet is a computer, and Android is an operating system.

-picked up a laptop much cheaper that a fee of good camera android market today (?) - comes with windows 8.1 - upgrade to windows comes with his - my question - since I have to relearn how to a windows operating system - is more sensible to learn 8.1, and then upgrade level or upgrade to 10 and then through the learning process only once? TKS for any response.

8.1 and 10 are not so different, so I don't think it does much
difference anyway. But if it were me, I would upgrade immediately
and just to learn 10.

    Hello, I have a really bad problem. It's not all about learn Windows license. OK, now read it carefully.

    First, I searched many websites SteamOS and I learned how dual-boot with Windows. I did all the steps on my EXTERNAL hard drive. Installer has done everything for me, but I chose only an external hard drive, after the installation, I learned he deleted all "sda" drive (original disc). Not only "sdb" (external hard drive). I don't know why. I can learn my Windows license again?

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I do facilities Linux dual-boot for many years, and one important thing I learned very early, it's ALWAYS having ALL players disconnected when you make a Linux installation.

    Why?

    Because the default installation values "sda" and make changes to that drive - unless you go way out of your way to avoid what he.

    You have requested your license Windows return.  But that is what you really need:

    (1) to recover the product key for your initial installation of the operating system

    (2) reinstall your initial installation of the operating system

    In addition, we need to know the number of detailed PC product: find your model of HP product number. HP® customer support

    And finally, in regards to your product key recovery, we need to know what version of Windows you are running.

    We can proceed once you provide the information.

    This seems to be resolved now... it was maybe an update of windows, like when I rebooted my machine it updated automatically and after that he worked all of a sudden!

    Anyway, now it shows a black screen and no sound for all channels, but that is a different problem... and I'll look in to that.

  • How to prevent the automatic upgrade for Windows 10

    Press reports say that Microsoft will 'soon' 10 Windows upgrade recommended for Windows 7, leading to the automatic download and installation.  I don't want that.  I have upgraded to Windows 10, then returned to 7 (leaving an extra 100 GB of something on my hard drive).  I intend to hold out until the last minute, and perhaps later.

    So, how to prevent this scheduled automatic upgrade?  Do I have to turn off updates in Windows 7 and manually review every update?  What I read who cannot help because Microsoft does not offer as much detail about the upgrades as in the past.

    Computers were a hobby for me in 1980.  After 35 years the computers are now a tool and their maintenance is a chore.  I'll learn Windows 10 when I need to and not before.  I really don't want to use 10 at home and at work 7.  When my employer upgraded, so I will.

    Hello DilbertFan,

    For the first year that Windows 10 is out, he will be free to users with a license for Windows 7 or 8.1.

    If you don't know that you do not want to update then please copy the text following that I have which is in italics below and paste it into Notepad.

    The Publisher of the registry Windows Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Gwx]"DisableGwx"=dword:00000001

    Once you have that then go ahead and save it to your desktop and save it under "block 10" or something like that. ""

    Return to your desktop and locate this file and change the extension from .txt to .reg file

    Save it, and then double-click the file. It is to modify the registry to block the upgrade of Windows 10. I use a lot.

    Thank you

  • Best way to reinstall Windows 7 on a virtual machine

    I have 2 questions, first, I'm sure I know the answer to but it leads to the second.

    I have a new Windows 7 Machine. I have played with it for a bit, but now intend to install server 2002 on it, then use W7 in a virtual environment.

    The questions are:

    1. I'm pretty sure of browsing the forum, I know the answer to this and its no.! but that's still...

    My original plan was to install the server and use dual boot but use the virtual w7 on a daily basis, rather than one that came on the machine - if I wqill need it is longer than the 30 days grace period. Can I use the same key for both because they are both on the same computer / hardware? Most of the forums seem to say no, but also a distinction that it runs on the same computer / hardware - it will be - only virtually.

    I can use other virtual machines to win 7, but these will be tests for the main environment and will be very temporary.

    2 assuming that the answer 1 is not and I'll have to install the server and then use my W7 key on a new installation in a virtual environment, what is the best way to backup everything on the current w7 machine and restore it to the w7 machine I create virtually?

    Note: I have 2 drives - 500 GB which I intend to mirror using the server (and then install another but that is not relevant to this ATM), but in the short term can I save photos, music and other files I want this player. It is mainly the files and installs them, personal settings, home group game settings etc... I want to be able to restore to the new environment of W7.

    Even if the answer to 1 is Yes, this information would be useful as I would like to create my current environment of W7 on the virtual machine.

    I will note that I have legal and valid product (in reason, where I work) keys for:

    Server 2008

    Windows 7 Professional x 2 (even if I intend to use one on a separate physical computer - I only want one on the machine that I put the server use)

    Thank you

    Nicci x

    Thanks for the reply.

    The goal is to learn windows server.

    I have a knowledge base of what I do, but only with A + / N + level but who seek to expand and learn things myself.

    I have 5 machines in the House and want to create a windows network using the server. The main engine was purchased for this purpose.

    Can I install server on a virtual machine in win7 then? That would probably make life easier

    Yes, you can. Do you intend to set up as a domain controller and have the clients to connect to it? If you want clients to connect to it as the other 5 machines which must run a Windows business edition, then its better you double boot with the existing installation of Windows 7. It is also very easy. He just set up a partition in Windows 7, boot from the disk of Windows Server 2008 R2 and select the partition where you want to install Windows Server 2008.

    Win7 is pro - these two licenses - with the machine, I bought. It came preinstalled but is a clean install without all the dell tools etc... Add.

    The other has not been used or turned on but goes to another machine.

    Is Server 2008 R2

    I know and understand the process of rearmament, thanks. The goal is to create a network within the home and begin to define AD profiles, use the server as a proxy and whole ton of other plans.

    I understand the potential challenges, I have created for me but I wanted to understand the best, legal way to go on this issue.

    I have a product key for server 2008 - I'm not trying to use the same one for server and win 7.

    Recommended or not, that's what I asked at the start - backup current win 7 and restaurant then in a virtual machine created on Server 2008 possible?

    No, it will not work. As suggested, for your test environment, its best you dual boot.

  • Interrupt the upgrade notification Windows 10

    Original title: Windows 8

    I am 70 years old and knows some decline in intellectual abilities.  I learned Windows 8 when I was working and had a lot of support when I need help. I was removed for 11 years.  I keep getting messages on my PC to Windows 10, but I just so much trouble learning something new these days.  I feel comfortable with Windows 8.  Microsoft plans on getting rid of Windows 8?  My computer is my lifeline to the outside world.

  • Notice of upgrade of Windows PC?

    I use Adobe CC using the following Windows 7 PC configuration:

    • HP Z620 (integrated 6 Channel SATA interface:2@6Gb/s, 4@3Gb/s. RAID 0, 1, 10).
    • Duel Xeon E5-2640 @ 2.50 GHz (12 cores Total, 24 Total Threads) processors
    • 32GB ECC Registered DDR3 memory - 1333 MHz (4 x 8)
    • NVIDIA Quadro 2000 2 GB-graphics card
    • 120 GB Intel 320 Series SSD SATA II MLC (operating system, programs, file)
    • 500 GB Hitachi HDD (previews, exports) E7K500 sister GST
    • 500 GB Hitachi GST Travelstar 7K 500 2.5 "HDD (media Cache)
    • ¥ 2x2TB WD Green SATA-III HDD (media, projects) - RAID1 on 6 Gb/s interface
    • Blu - ray BD - RW Pioneer BDR-206DBKS SATA burner
    • HP LP3065 30 "monitor
    • HP LP2065 20 "monitor

    ¥ I know for reason of performance it is best to use RAID0 here, but I lost once in 4 hours of work when a drive went wrong before my normal daily backups.  So now, I like saving my work instance.

    The case may contain (in addition to the Blu - ray burner) four disks 5.25 "or three 5.25" and two disks 2,5 "(ce dernier est la configuration actuelle)."

    I want to improve performance, especially when using Premiere Pro and After Effects (and Media Encoder, well that not as high priority).  I have around a $1,000 budget for updating my system and thought the following possibilities:

    • The disc of the operating system, programs exchange for a 128 GB Samsung 850 Pro (~ 100), put on the 6 Gb/s port
    • Exchanging the drive media Cache for a 256 GB Samsung 850 Pro (~ 175), put on the 6 Gb/s port
    • Exchange media, projects for two WD Black drives two disks (~ 250)
    • Exchange on the K4000 NVIDIA Quadro 2000 (~ $ 500)
    • Add 32 GB of memory (64GB total) ~ $400

    I have also upgraded to 8.1 and re window - learn Windows if there is a performance and the reason for the stability to do.

    I realize there are several factors that go into how to better optimize PC edition to its special needs, but I was hoping to get notice that others could do given my system and the budget.

    My 2cents would be to stick with a quadro k4200 or superior. It's a decent upgrade on the k4000. your gpu may be the weak link for material currently.  If you need save money and don't need the quadro then a 960 gtx or 970. If you need the quadro for a reference monitor, you can run your current quadro as a dedicated display output and a new gtx as the card cuda/rendering...

    I see no reason to move to win8.1.  also, I think that microsoft has announced that they are giving away 10 free, windows to windows 7 and 8 owners, for the first year. If that's true, you can go that route.

    memory and the hard drive is really depends on your media and what you do in adobe CC faster hard drive almost always will be welcome, so that depending on what you are doing and your film, the RAM may or may not be worth the investment.  If you do not get two WD black, you might be able to run in band/raid0 and then use the Greens as backup. possibly by creating an another band/raid0 with Greens from WD and using a file synchronization program to copy all the new/changed files on WD blacks for the WD green at the end of the day.
