Lost my cd of windows xp operating system
Can someone help me with the problem below.
A year ago, I bought a desktop computer HP with preinstallation OS (Microsoft XP Home edition). Now my PC has a problem because of which it requires reinstallation of the operating system. But to my surprise I couldn't find my cd of the OS that came through my PC.
Can someone tell me how I can reinstall my OS without the original CD.
Note: My PC at startup goes only until the first screen where Windows logo does not yet.
RSR, you can contact HP Customer Service to see if the discs are still available for your computer. They will need the model number. Here's a guide that will give you all the information you need.

As indicated in the title, you can do a BIOS in Windows 8 update while on a Windows 10 operating system?
I have a Phoenix desktop h9-1150 and am trying to install a new GPU GTX970. There is no updated BIOS for Windows 10 at this time, but there is an update of my current BIOS 7.07 for Windows 8 OS. Can I do that Windows 8 updated safely?
Normally the flasher will check to verify the operating system, but I can't on this one. It does not separate out ROM file, even if it does not check if the operating system you can always extract the file BIOS and flash BACK. I would try it first in windows. It will tell you if there is a control in place.

Re: Serial number down would work with the other Windows Vista operating system
First of all sorry for my English.
I have one question.My hard drive is broken with my recovery partition.
If I download windows vista and install the system with my original serial number on the laptop, this will work or should I activate it after installation.I hope it's the same number that the front is installed on my first installation.
Hello Marcin
I doubt that the serial number that is placed at the bottom of the device works with another Windows Vista operating system. But it s worth a try
You could test it I heard it's very rare cases it was possibleIn any case, if your HARD disk is damaged and it of not possible to create a recovery DVD using recovery software Toshiba disc creator, then you must contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
If the warranty is valid the HARD drive should be replaced just for free. If you need only the recovery DVDs, then you can order it here:

Is there a practice of the Windows Server operating system environment?
I'm looking to get some practice with the Windows Server operating system (2008 or other). I came across the downloadable 180 trial period, but I don't mean to create a true server temporarily. I'm looking to be able to have a completely 'virtual world' where I can actually add devices and simulate connect with different computers, etc. I want to create an environment of virtual server completely, not the 180-day trial period where I create an environment that can have real computers to connect to it. Such a thing exists?
For example, I used a program called Packet Tracer that allows me to simulate the addition of routers, switches and high-end devices to create a whole network of Physics in a virtual environment. I can configure devices with IP address and all that I can learn how to build a physical network. I would like to do with the operating system Windows Server if possible.
Thank you.

I need the drivers to scan for a HP Scanjet 2300c for a Windows 7 operating system.
I need the drivers to scan for a HP Scanjet 2300c for a Windows 7 operating system or compatible driver.
Hello.
According to HP, they offer no drivers for Windows 7, but in many cases the driver for Vista works on Win 7, then you can try this. If you have 64-bit Windows 7, then download Vista(64-bit), if you have 32-bit Windows 7, download Vista.
The drivers can be found here.

Apparent compromise Windows XP operating system files
During a scan, antiviral regular which was initiated by the provider of the antiviral software, the scan did not work properly (i.e., it is still indicating that the scan is in progress, but nothing happens - no status progress which is now 50 + hours). Contact the vendor of the antiviral software, they gave me the steps to perform a disk cleanup and then a reboot of the mode without failure followed by steps to remove TEMP files. At halfway through the disk cleanup process, a pop-up window has stated that: "Windows - files required for Windows File Protection is running properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.» To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files. Insert your Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 CD now. "The Windows disks have not inserted according to the instructions, but instead, I contacted the antiviral software vendor to make sure that there is no unintended consequence. The software provider antiviral indicated that Microsoft should be contacted as there can be some files that have been compromised that stopped the disk cleanup. Windows XP (version 2005) operating system was pre-installed by the company of Toshiba laptop. Question: I should restart the disk cleanup process as described by the antiviral software provider, and if there is another popup window indicating the information as mentioned above, service pack of Windows XP CD should be inserted? Note: I was told Toshiba CD provided by them for the laptop contains the Windows XP operating system software. The two provided Toshiba CD entitled, "Recovery and Applications/drivers DVD Satellite A100/A105 Series." Question: Are there possible negative conseguences because the provided CD/DVDs have possible applications and drivers on them? Thank you.
