Licensing issue? I need to replace the default motherboard with a 'Detail' education Vista Ultimate Upgrade on top of XP "OEM." Can legitimately transfer my license everywhere and how?

I am currently a computer on which I already installed XP OEM and upgraded to the edition upgrade Vista Ultimate retailers through the ultimate steal Microsoft.

[Reminder]

The problem I have is that I've recently updated my graphics card to a card of Nvidia 7300GS card Nvidia GT240 on which my motherboard was properly assessed. However, due to some unfortunate circumstances (I dunno if it's associated graphics or an electrical surge problem, I suspect the latter as the card is fine) my PCI Express slot is fried! This resulted in the motherboard being unable to start any card in the PCI Express slot and gives a series of BIOS beep error codes. I even dug my old graphics (7300GS) and he was still unable to boot. Accordingly, I need to replace the motherboard for the PCI Express slot works if I use a graphics card.

[Problem]

Since the license Vista Retail Upgrade that I use currently is the edition of 'detail', can I simply change my motherboard everything and turn it back on, or is it more complex because it is installed on the high XP OEM that is bound to the default motherboard? What are my options?

I have to buy another XP OEM license and reinstall everything from scratch? What happens if I didn't reinstall and just changed the motherboard and drivers updated my current installation? Is - is this legitimate?

As I understand it, the Windows for OEM license allows a person replace a motherboard of 'default' (GA-M55plus-S3G in my case) for a replacement under certain conditions, mainly as for everything. Am I entitled to it? If so, what motherboard would be I can replace by although it is considered an upgrade? I have in mind an ASUS M4A78L-M as it is cheap and comes with connectors female jack audio 8 channels on the backplate was on my old motherboard.

My main confusion is to know what license applies to me because of the upgrade process, retail of Vista or XP OEM? Upgrades medium I improve my driver's license?

I would like to solve this problem without canceling my licenst but just don't know how?

Thank you very much for any help or advice.

It is not Microsoft.

These are public forums, hosted by Microsoft.

You need to set the XP Reinstall 1 > and then perform the upgrade to Vista.

We cannot tell you what motherboard you can replace it with.

    I need to change the default 'open with' Bridge of photoshop to photoshop CC 2015.  How do I do that?

    Hi karen,.

    It can get a bit tangled. Bridge delay normally to some think the Finder is the default, and every OS has its own way for you to tell the OS what you say should be the default value. On Mac, it's in the file information dialog box. I think that Windows called something like properties. You can change an extension to open all files with an application in your operating system first, restart Bridge and see if she pays tribute to this choice by double clicking on a file and observing that it opens the right version of PS. normally, it will be. (By default) must also appear after this choice in the list open with contextual (right click on the file you want to open, select open with and find the name of the application in the list).

    If this does not work, you will need to manually choose your file association for the extension of the list next to him in the Bridge preferences > File Associations. Which is normally necessary only when you want to override the default choice of your OS System. For example, maybe you want to bridge to open in PS JPEG files when you double-click it in Bridge, but if you double-click on a file in the Finder/Explorer JPEG, you want to open with Viewer of this system. It will not say it is (by default) in the pop-up list more, but bridge will honor your file associated with the choice of your system.

  • Replaced the old motherboard with new

    Recently, I replaced the motherboard on my G2-149WM HP with the recommended OEM. (model number of same parts) The problem I have is, after that Windows 8 logo appears when you first start up, it goes to the black COMMAND screen and it says something about the system is not reconizing cards mothers NAME of THE PRODUCT, INFORMATION SYSTEM. or nothing! On the bottom is says ENTER: PRESS to START NORMAL or something similar! He has never done before, so that I have to reset/upgrade to update the BIOS or what? I would appreciate your help regarding this issue... and I thank you in advance!

    Mario,

    The problem was, as I installed it and not a certified HP Tech, the new motherboard was not entered in my system for a lack of a better term! Look at my personal tech for all the info he needed and had it fixed in less than half an hour! Before that, I did follow your advice and update my BIOS nothing helps... but at least it is updated! Thank you very much for your help!

    Just drag brett [at] prettydigital.com email Glenn.

    -Wide product displayed by default, click left and right you have a cursor of all images of poplet

    -Hover over the big picture without clicking, it's a zoom of the image or (which I think would be better) you click that or one of the poplet images and you have a model coming with a larger image.

  • I need to replace the battery and AC adapter of the Satellite Pro U400-160

    I have a Satellite Pro U400-160.

    I need to replace the battery and the charger of my Toshiba, but I am wary about compatibility issues.

    Any battery for Satellite Pro U400 is suitable for mine?
    As I can't find which batteries are specifically suitable for my computer.

    (For example: is this a: http://www.amazon.es/Bater%C3%ADa-Toshiba-Satellite-U400-11V-7800mAh/dp/B0051A9Y88/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1366885340&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=satellite+pro+u400?)

    Is there a quick way to check if a battery / charger are compatible?

    Each battery and adapter you get from Toshiba has specific part number. All you have to do is use this same part number and order. You should be able to find on the internet.
    You can also get compatible parts you are ordering by the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.

    By the way: all U400 models have the same construction and the similar specifications then all the batteries specified for U400 can be used on your U400-160.

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01713747.PDF

    Replacement of optical discs with reference numbers HP are in Chapter 3, page 33.

    You can also read the instructions in Chapter 4 on removing the drive and get the number off of it, which is normally on a white sticker.  A reference to 6 digit-3 digit number (123456-001)

    You can search by the number of coin on eBay for a used camera but work or you can probably buy a new one at HP by entering the part number on the link below.

  • Satellite M30X-115: I need to replace the screen

    Hello

    I need to replace the screen on my laptop but I can't find references one is on. Is it possible to have this references or references to a compatible standard model and of course, an easy to find the object: o)
    Thanks for the help of the Tower

    Hello

    As far as I know the Satellite M30X was delivered with a screen 15.4 "(1280 x 800) view wide TFT color display."

    Only the dimensions of the screen are important. So if you want you can search a 15.4 "display.
    By the way; the display is one of the most expensive parts of laptop. Perhaps a second hand M30X, or a display of second hand would be a better solution as to buy a new screen for around $ 300.

    Greetings

  • Need to replace the monitor on my Satellite M100

    I need to replace the monitor on my Satelite M100.
    Who monitors new notebooks of models can match?

    Hello

    As Akuma says you need a display that correspond to your laptop and the LCD s are not standardized.

    I think that the best option would be an authorized service provider because they can order all the original parts of Toshiba. Also return LCD is a little tricky because you must remove many screws and you should be careful with the lid.

    Moreover, here you can find the nearest ASP:

  • Satellite L300D-10B - need to replace the HARD drive

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba satellite L300D-10B and I need to replace the broken hdd in my laptop.
    It is a hitachi 160 GB at 5400 RPM SATA.

    Is it possible to move to a greater capacity (500 GB) and a little faster (7200 RPM).
    is - that someone at - he had success with any particular model?

    Hello

    In my opinion, is not a big problem to use a faster and larger HARD drive.
    The laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and this controller must be able to manage these drives.

    Hello

    How old is your machine? If you still have your warranty, so why not give your machine to a local service partner?

    So if you don t give something on your guarantee you can trade your coins. But to look for the pieces on google and you won´t get any help from toshiba (e.g. manual disassembly or something similar).

    I tried long before your request and I made my experience that if you want to open your machine your completely on your own.

    for the readers of plateau...

    You can use any 2.5 ", height 9.5 mm SATA drive. I got one for hitachi travelstars (now owned by western digital), which were originally ibm. others have all also good luck with (and loyalty towards) other brands. Choose your ability, the speed, the size of the cache, etc. of many online merchants have a good selection.

    for SSDS.

    same features as physical size above. you will need to do research in reliability, chip controller oddities, etc., but they get a lot more reliable. they need it another type of disaster recovery plan, however, as failure means no data is salvageable I heard. with top readers, depending on the type of failure, some recovery is generally possible without resorting to expensive professional services.

    for both types of readers, you should be able to use disks of 7 mm of height also long as you install the drive in the case of existing drive and use rubber track. This maintains alignment connector with the drive Bay.
