MS Win XP SP3 Tech support ends in July 2014, they will still provide security updates after 07/2014?

Fact average email for technical assistance to MS Technology Services / and or chat live with MS Tech, and that's what will be abandoned after 07/2014. I need the security updates after this date for Dell M6300 (Business / Govt.) laptop. Is there a new OS MS (Vista, Win 7?) that runs on the machine Core Duo T7500 w / 2 GB SDRAM. It's my personal machine I use at home, connected to the Internet. I can't afford to buy a new machine.

We are currently in the final phase of support for Windows XP. It is called "extended support". As you can see on this page:

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/lifecycle

... There will be no security patches released after April 8, 2014.

You should be able to run Windows 7 just fine on a PC with processor and memory that you specify. For more information, see:

    Is not possible. After effects CC is the only software to subscription. You pay each month and download all the updates that are included. But you never admit it.

    If I pay $20 monthly for 1 year as he says, at the end of the year I will always be able to keep the software without paying for it again (not to mention the upgrade) and use it.

    N ° after 12 months, you either renew your subscription or you cancel your plan.

    If you choose to renew then you keep paying your monthly fees. If you choose to cancel then the software will stop working until you choose to renew.

    If this is not how to pay for it and keep it forever, and how much it will cost me?

    There is no way to buy CC pure and simple and keep it forever.

    The only version you can afford and keep it forever is CS6 (the version before CC) available here

  • Win XP - another problem when support ends

    I know that sounds as drastic [bits of candle], but when XP ceases to be MSN- supported in April 2014, if I need to buy a new pc (which must win 8 pre-installed) after this date and want to install XP from my CD on it to continue to use the old software, there will be a little routine 'Unlock in 30 days' record to cross. This copy of XP has been re-recorded many times, but I think that it will not Activate after legal if there is currently no way of saving him.

    Any ideas, please?

    Specifically, the chances are very high that there will be no all the XP drivers for a large part of the hardware of any new computer you buy in 2014.

    "The end of support for Windows XP will not effect of activation, but rather security updates and telephone support or online." -see, for example, http://www.pcworld.com/article/250774/will_i_be_able_to_activate_xp_after_2014_.html

  • HP27vc: Tech Support a severe disappointment - the HP monitor drivers

    So, I bought this monitor at Staples last weekend.  I installed and also the HP Support Assistant.  When you're done, I then found that I was still operating under the generic "pnp monitor" driver Windows.

    HP Support Assistant was no help at all - he could not recognize that I am using a HP monitor.

    So I called HP Tech support today - as it turns out, it is offshore support.  After finally convincing that I indeed had a HP device that was under warranty, I was connected with another offshore technician, who proceeded to 'teach me' there is no HP DRIVERS - all use generic drivers.  At this point, I realized that I was being quite a lot of manure of cattle.  When I asked why HP Support Assistant did not see the monitor on my system, he said that it was not supposed to see the monitor, only the pc mainframe.  I told her that it was not very helpful and ended the call.

    So I dug even more, and of course, I found HP27vc LCD Monitor driver, sp73128.exe.  I installed this and now my monitor is running with the HP driver and not the generic.

    I checked HP Support Assistant once again, who wondered if the correct driver has been installed now, he can now see the monitor, but alas, he still does not see it.

    Is it worth keeping this HP Support Assistant installed?  I mean, because he does not see the monitor, how can it be of any use to me?

    Any comments or thoughts appreciated

    Hello:

    I guess you can get all kinds of divergent opinions about the usefulness of the software HP Support Assistant (HPSA).

    It is one of the first programs I uninstall when I have a PC HP.

    You have found, you can check the support page for your HP product for new drivers (or drivers in general).

    One of the things that scares me is that some people have the software HPSA runs automatically, and it will download and install software updates without knowing the user.

    This can be particularly dangerous if it downloads and installs an update of the BIOS for the PC, and work on the PC during this process.  Not sure yet it is running, or casually reject all notifications that you are busy (I do this at the time), and if you close your PC for an update of the BIOS, you end up with a dead PC.

    I read a few forum posts where that happened indeed a few people unhappy.

    You can set the program to you not inform that, and then you choose when and which updates to install.

    I just get rid of it... one more application running in background to slow down your PC.

    Use the utilities to clean and optimize disk at least once a month to keep your PC works well.

  • LabVIEW 2010 will not install on Win XP SP3

    I have made several attempts to install LabVIEW 2010 on Win XP SP3. I already have LabVIEW 2009 installed and working.

    On each attempt, I accept the default installation options and do not put in a serial number. The first attempt got stuck at 2% full and has not changed for 30 minutes. No error message. I canceled the installation and tried to install it again from setup.exe.

    The next two attempts to stall at 0% blinking forever. The 4th attempt made in 18% entered at a standstill for more than 30 minutes. The next two attempts is stagnating at 0% repeating and not cancel. I had to end it with the Task Manager.

    Why it not install LabVIEW 2010 without stalling until 30 minutes? Why it not spit an error instead of just stalling? How can I know why he moved?  How should I do?

    I finally got to LabVIEW 2010 to install.

    I didn't have a corrupted download. I didn't disable my antivirus. I didn't have a lot of processes running. I turned off my computer last night and I tried the setup.exe again this morning first thing. Maybe running LabVIEW 2009 yesterday before installation left something that the installation did not like. Who knows?

    How is the installation of LabVIEW 2010 would just stall for long periods (more than 30 minutes, maybe forever) without any error message or progress?

    LabVIEW has a Setup log that I could look into these situations to see where the installation is suspended up to and perhaps why?

  • Win XP will still be usable after the support of Microsoft stop on 08/04/2014?

    Hello

    I want to know if I will still be able to use Windows XP after Microsoft ends all support on 08/04/2014. I called ahead to tell you about this, but did not get a definitive answer to my question. I hope that someone from Microsoft will be able to respond here. I understand that they have no access to Windows updates. However, my concern is that Windows XP requires activation so that software work more than 30 days. Whenever I have do a reinstall, I always call the automated system to activate it as opposed to activate over the internet. The telephone option to activate Win XP will still be available at this number: 716-871-2929?

    Thank you.

  • A security update (KB2584146) has been installed. It shows "installed successfully." Yet, whenever I have re-boot or run Micrsoft update, it offers this update again. Win XP SP3 (Build 2600).

    A security update (KB2584146) has been installed. After installation, it shows properly "installed". Yet, whenever I have re-boot or run Micrsoft update, it offers this update again. It shows also 'successful' in the history of my Microsaoft update. Win XP SP3 (Build 2600).

    It's an old update. Wonder why you just get it now.

    First try this...
    Click Start > run > type chkdsk/r > press OK or press the Enter key. A cmd window will appear telling you that the volume is in use and you want to plan its next reboot. Type y and press ENTER. Then restart.
    Try to install the update and check that it installed properly by doing another analysis of Windows Update.

    If this does not do...
    Download the update manually, on your desktop to the http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28608.
    Click Start > run > Browse. In the Browse dialog box, double-click WindowsXP-KB2584146 - x 86 - ENU.exe. The box open term should have the path now. Add a space and an x at the end.
    Press OK or press the Enter key.
    You will get a dialog box with the path to your desktop already filled.
    After Office add a slash and the name of the folder so that we end up with something like C:\Documents and Settings\\Desktop\KB2584146.
    Go to this folder, and then in the SP3GDR folder.
    You can see packager.exe.
    Right-click to copy.
    In the box to run, type dllcache, then press on enter.
    Paste the file in there, replacing the one already there.
    In the run box, type system32, then press on enter.
    Paste the file there too by crushing the already there.
    Is there a lot of folder there. Make sure you do not paste in a subfolder. You want to the root of system32.

    Go to Windows Update and confirm that it no longer wants to install.
