• Can not install the new copy of windows xp home edition

  A friend has built a computer for me and my friend it works for me.  Everything goes ok, then it stops working because the friend has installed a pirated copy of Windows XP Professional on this topic.  OK, I'm a little angry, but I can cope.  I had bought a new copy, never been used before, Windows XP Home Edition a couple of years to my old copy that I ended up not using.  When this happened, I thought it would be great, I could install that.  So, I turn on my new computer and let it boot.  When it comes to the screen, saying that I don't have an authentic copy of Windows installed, I open my CD drive, and then press the button so he can go back into the computer.  I have no mouse or keyboard control so I can't select all and nothing happens after that the disk will inside.  Nothing, I can't even hear anything running.   I would try to solve this problem without having to take Office Depot where they charge me $ 99 for "try" to fix it.  I don't have a job, so fix me it is my only option.  Any help out there in the cyberland?  Thanks for any help.  I'm on my dad's computer if you're wondering how I'm even able to send this way.  Laughing out loud

  I do not understand what you're doing or why nothing seems to happen, but the fundamental question that you have, it's that you cannot "upgrade" from XP Pro to XP Home.

  Assuming you can still start Windows (even if you get the notice that it is not authentic), copy all your data on some external support (external drive, USB flash, CD, DVD) and then perform a new installation of XP Home.  Once Windows is installed, you need to restore these data and you will need to re - install applications (programs) that you have installed (for example, Microsoft Office), so you'll need to find the installation for the applications media.

  Because it is a home-built computer, you must obtain all the necessary drivers on the web sites of various hardware manufacturers.  Most likely you will need are motherboard (chip), display (video), (audio), network (including wireless and modem) and any device (e.g., printers).

  Use the computer that you use to post here in order to download drivers and save them to a flash drive or burn them on a CD.

  I guess that your boyfriend (ex?) didn't give you all the documents with the computer (e.g., the motherboard manual or manuals for other equipment he installed).  If you can enter in your current Windows installation, click Start > run > msinfo32 > OK.  Click on the 'Components' category and look at the different devices to determine their models and manufacturers.  Motherboard information (you need to get the drivers of chip set) is not indicated in msinfo32.  Use BelArc Advisor (free)

  Don't forget - when installing from a Windows XP CD, you'll probably not the current service pack (service pack 3) and you will certainly not have current security patches.  You too have an antivirus.  Get instant access to Windows Update (do not go to other websites) and download critical updates.  Probably, this will take time and may require several reboots and go back to Windows Update.  When all updates have been installed, install an antivirus.

  If you are willing to pay for an anti-virus, eSet NOD antivirus (not the "suite").  Otherwise, I suggest Microsoft Security Essentials or Avira AntiVir Personal.  At some point after that things are settled down, you should also get the free versions of MalwareBytes Anti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware.  You don't need the "pro version" that work all the time; You must only update and run these scanners on a periodic basis just to be sure that you have not picked up a malware that is slipped beyond your anti-virus.

• Windows XP Home Edition (Version 2002) include SP1 is the Virtual Machine for Java (MSJVM) installed on this and future Service Packs Microsoft remove it?

  While the installation of Microsoft DirectX 9.0 c on my Windows XP Home Edition (Version 2002) operating system (not sure if the 2002 version in it's original state included SP1), EULA (EULA) provided the contract included a paragraph stating that "ONLY in regards to THE VIRTUAL MACHINE MICROSOFT FOR JAVA, YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED to INSTALL THIS OS COMPONENT ON A MACHINE THAT CONTAINS A ALREADY the VERSION OF THE MICROSOFT JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE". Assuming that the MSJVM was included with Windows XP Home Edition (Version 2002), I advanced and accepted the EULA. I then downloaded and installed Windows XP SP2 and SP3, but wasn't sure whether SP2 and SP3 removed the MSJVM in any point. However, research on the question, I discovered the site "FAQ of Transition MSJVM" (updated May 7, 2004), who answered the question: ' if I install Windows XP SP1a or later, it will remove my current MSJVM? " with "No, the operating system upgrade will not remove a MSJVM existing on the computer" (http://www.microsoft.com/about/legal/en/us/interoperability/java/faq.aspx). However, I can't find any instance of it on my computer.

  So my questions are:

  1. Windows XP Home (Version 2002) Edition include SP1?
  2. The MSJVM is installed on this version?
  3. SP2 or SP3 removes the MSJVM in any point to?

• Windows XP Home Edition do not recognize the validation key

  I'm abroad and currently helping an exchange student colleagues with his laptop before riddled of virus. To know that she was about 6 years without a reinstallation of the machine running, I went ahead and did. Since then, I was unable to activate their copy of Windows XP Home Edition (receive the incorrect product key error) despite the verification on his Toshiba Satellite A105-S361 code. What would be my next step to get this posted thing?

  License types must match.  Chances are that the license code on the Toshiba is an OEM license key.  It validates that if Windows XP has been installed from an OEM Windows XP Edition Setup disk family.  If you tried to install Windows by using an XP retail installation disk, types of licenses will not match, and you will get an error similar to the one you describe.  At this point, if you do not have a Toshiba Windows Installer disk or if there is not a recovery partition still on the hard drive (accessible by pressing a button as soon as the monitor is active), you will need to contact Toshiba for more help/support.

• I installed Windows XP Home Edition. Can not find the wireless network drive

  I installed Windows XP Home Edition on my spare PC.  Now I have wireless network card in the computer and problems to find the drivers for it, and I don't know what brand it is, so I know it's kind of makes it harder too.  Then I also have to start the computer, but if I press F1, the computer starts well

  I was just wondering how can I get rid of this?

  

  Disable all devices that can connect to your router (wired or wireless)...

  • PCs
  • Laptops
  • Tablets
  • Smartphones
  • Smart TV
  • Printers
  • Networked storage
  • Another thing that I have not mentioned above!

  Put on your router and wait for the normal light distribution. Then turn on all devices.

  I hope that your ip address conflict went away. Generally ip conflicts can happen when the router is running again without doing the same with all devices later.

  If you have even an ip address conflict, it is possible that you forgot something above or can someone use your router without your knowledge.

  Your router's wireless network is secure? Ideally with WPA2 encryption?

• Cannot install game or applications in Windows 7 Home Edition computer.

  Original title: Windows Installer problems - Windows 7 Home Edition.

  I am running Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit. I tried to install a game last night and at the start of the installer it disappears from the screen and I find myself with an icon in my taskbar tasks that wont open. Sometimes, if I'm lucky and let him go, he will open full screen and allow me to continue with the installation. I thought maybe it was just the game that I was installing. So I tried to install something else non-related and it appears the installer, but the bar never moves. I try to shut it down and he even used close. It will cancel, but even after I cancel, Setup is still used in the process. I've looked everywhere and cannot find a solution to this problem.

  I tried unsubscribing msiexec and re-enrollment it and no luck

• is windows xp home edition compatible with gateway mseries laptop?

  I want to convert my computer laptop gateway mseries from windows vista to windows xp home edition.  the specs for the laptop are the following: manufacturer: gateway, model: m7315u processor: intel dual core 2 GHz ram p.: 1.5 GB I have windows xp home edition activation code, but he lost the installation cd and I'm tired of every time that I try to do something that requires administrative permission (which my user account has) the computer crashes.  I know that windows xp home edition is being abandoned, but she always work better for me than windows vista (in my opinion)

  Hi Xircal,

  The computer manufacturer often have the same drivers for a series model they release

  But the OP would be wasting their time on installing XP, so bridge never provided XP drivers for this particular model. This is one of the reasons why I suggested that the OP contact Gateqway Support.

  The point of the OP's question is that they want to replace Vista by XP

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  Here's the line of the OP: "I want to convert my computer laptop gateway mseries from windows vista to windows xp home edition.

  In the link you give, it shows being available for model 7300 XP drivers.

  : http://support.gateway.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=3014

  As the OP says that Vista is installed, why this model 7300 only Vista drivers available for it by default, if it is the same material as the M-7315u?

  See you soon.
