My HARD drive has failed. Can I transfer an OEM Vista Premium to the new HARD drive?
I get a message that my HARD drive is "iminent failure" and still works. Can I transfer my OS of Vista OEM (H/P desktop computer) bonus to the new HARD drive? I have the original disks of code and product recovery. If I can, please give directions.
Thanking you in advance. WC
Hello
Yes
You can change HDDs in the machine even if it's a failure and does not affect your vista license
posters have reportrd have problems if they used hardware spares no HP
just thought I would mention that if you encounter problems during reinstallation
Also discover this way of doing what you want to do
hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning software to move your operating system installed from the old to the new hard disk

Equium A200: impossible to get Vista installed on the new HARD drive recovery
Hello
After a failure of the HD I bought a Toshiba no AF HD which is defective
Now that I had to buy a replacement HARD drive that is a player of AF but no matter how hard I try, I can't recovery Vista Home Premium software to installI get an error "Windows cannot configure Windows" or something like this message.
Pointers would be most useful.
Thank you, Tim.
Usually, is not a big problem to install the Toshiba Vista image using the new HARD disk.
But I've already read in different threads that in the case of much larger hard drives the recovery procedure could not complete successfully.In which case you would not be able to complete the Vista installation by using the recovery disk, you can try to install the system using the Microsoft disc. In this case I recommend you take the Win 7 OS. Its much better than Vista OS.

Go read the information, click on the 'Options' tab, then change the drop-down list of "sort of media" to "Music" to "Audiobook". That worked for me, I hope that it helps you also.

Yes, don't worry if you migrate to the same operating system (Mac or Win).
Catalogue conversion works well.
If you plan to migrate to another computer, you need to transfer your image files as your catalogs, which means that you can use the backup and restore method:
Organizing moving items catalogue | Elements 6 or later version
When you use this method, the restore process recognizes if the database version is the same. If it is newer, it invites you to convert the catalog after the restoration.
To transfer the software elements itself, you will need to:
-Use the Help menu > disconnect deactivate your license from the old computer
-Reinstall the software
-use the same menu to sign with your product license key.

Why can't edit my contacts to search with the new ios 10.0.1
Why can't edit my contacts to search with the new ios 10.0.1
It seems they have changed the way search works after the update. You can always edit contacts by opening the Contacts app, then open the contact you want to change. We do not know why they made the change, but unfortunately it is out of our reach. I don't know that they had a reason for this. If this is not the case, they will probably patch in an another mini update.
