my laptop used win xp pro, impossible to "validate your copy of windows." It was beautiful before the drive hard was replaced...

My race of the used laptop win xp pro, I have MOM who bought her company when they all upgraded and got again.  It has never included a Win xp pro disk (it doesn't even have a disk drive, I have to hang it on an external disk drive) but it has the license key (original tag) on the underside.  A few months ago, the hard drive failed and crashed.  I had a friend replace the hard drive.  To get it up and running, that it must connect to a personal computer running win xp pro.  Reloaded all through his computer, I guess that copied to mine?  The problem is now media played just ran an update/upgrade to wmp 11 and now I get a message "validate your copy of windows" and Media Player does not work... When I go to real glass site enter key there is no place to do that, he just wants me to buy Win 7 & that is going to happen, what can I do? Please keep in mind, I'm completely broke and a stupid computer. I need the instructions of baby-talk, clear and explicit. Seriously, 5 years more about these things I do, help Pleeeease LOL!

  • I use win xp pro 32 bit and want to update for win 7 pro, how can I do? I have

    Hi I bought a new PC and need to upgrade all these years I was with win XP pro 32 bit, I need to switch to Win 7 pro. 64 bit...
    what I have to buy a new copy of license or just pay the amount of the upgrade to the new version of windows? If so how do I do that?

    You will need to purchase a new license, unfortunately, you can't buy just the product key, you'll need to buy the package, given that Microsoft is no longer selling just the key.

    Full version-

    Microsoft Windows 7 Professional

    Version upgrade-

    Microsoft Windows 7 Professional upgrade

    The upgrade to Windows XP?

    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  • Win 7 Pro - make a name of user and password request when accessing to the server computer in the workgroup. Credentials, then considered non valid.

    Recently bought a Dell Dimension 3847 with Windows 7 Pro to replace a workstation that is connected to a network that uses Windows Server 2003. I already set up two other PC's (not same model) with Win 7 Pro, for existing users and had no problems whatsoever. The user of this workstation is an existing one (implemented as an administrator).  I've set up his account and she joined the working group. The other computers in the workgroup are listed under network location. However, when I tried to access the server computer in the Working Group, I got a pop-up window asking for a username and password. This would not have taken place. However, I entered the username and password for that particular user and received a message that the user name and password were not valid. I set up my user account (it has administrative privileges too), on this computer, joined the Working Group, Windows recognizes the other computers in the workgroup, but when I tried to access the server computer I got the same pop-up and had the same problem with my credentials not being recognized. While remaining under my user name, I tried and then access the server computer again but when I arrived at the prompt for the user name and password, I used the 'Administrator' user name with the appropriate password (the credentials used to connect to the server computer) and it worked. I registered to the account of the other user and used the same method to access the server and it worked as well. Any ideas why the user credentials, other than the administrator account, are not recognized?

  • Replacing the drive HARD Satellite Pro 4280

    I have a SP 4280 and the original hard drive on it does not have earlier. I bought a Hitachi Travelstar 5K 100 40 GB replacement, but I can't seem to make it work. FDisk recognizes the disc as a 40 GB drive and seems to format the drive. However, attempts to write anything to generate results in an error message "invalid media".

    Installation using XP Pro format the drive gives me an error message in the sense of "Windows cannot format the drive.

    I have attached the drive to my PC via a cable of adapter 2.5 "and it seems to work fine. I also use the latest version of the BIOS on my laptop. It is not the settings of 'cable' rider select and 0/1 on the drive.

    Someone knows what the problem is, or that I couldn't do or have suggestions to raise my drive and running?

    Cheers in advance

    Hello

    Your device was shipped with a 6 GB HARD drive.
    In my opinion, the BIOS has a few problems with the recognition of the HARD drive because of the large size of HARD drive. Unfortunately, I put t see any possibility to solve the problem.

  • Can I use the drive HARD internal extra for my Satellite A200-1 to 9?

    Hello, new to these forums,

    I recently bought the A200-1 to 9, and I'm very happy with it. I was interested by the addition of an extra internal HDD to the exisitng 120 GB one. I obviously did not have enough research I bought a Toshiba MK2035GSS: 2.5 "HARD 200 GB drive thinking it would be slot directly into the spare slot and it doesn't.

    So, really, I'm looking for some advice if I can add an extra internal hard drive and if so what model and how. After taking the back cover it looks like the aura of the place for another drive, even though I'm not sure if correct connections are there, or maybe if the space is used for something else.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Thank you
    Martin

    Hello Martin

    As far as I know that some A200 models come with hard drives 2. because of this Toshiba laptop brand standard chassis. All A200 models use this standard chassis. Your A200 comes with a single drive HARD and because of this place for the second disc is empty. This does not mean that you can use the second HARD drive.

    I have the same laptop as you and in my case there is no any prepared for second HARD drive HARD drive connector.

  • Just reinstalled Windows 8, which wiped the drive hard, but now it says my hard drive is using more than half of its capacity, although it should be nearly empty.

    The title says it all.

    I reinstalled windows 8 which apparently erased from my hard drive. After starting my computer upward even once, I noticed that I had free 826GBs of 1.81 on my hard drive (Local disk (c)), even if it should be almost empty. When I pointed out all the contents of my hard drive and go to properties of what he says his only help 114GBs of space, unlike what 'My Computer' told me.

    I noticed that a folder in the drive Local (c) entitled "Windows.old" which has my old program files that would make account 96GBs of used space. I tried to remove that but he told me that I needed permission from the "SYSTEM".

    I need help with this problem, I still have to put my old files on my computer, which I'm sure that will exceed the alleged free space I have. If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate a step by step explanation. I can handle a correct amount of talk about the computer, but a lot of it goes over my head.
