Transfer of license with a twist
So I've recently upgraded to a new system... Virtually everything has been replaced - the motherboard, RAM, graphics card, processor... Everything but my HARD drive. I want to continue to use my current Vista operating system, but I forgot to turn it off before changing the parts of my PC. Now, whenever I try to turn it on, it says that the license is already in use.Is there anyway for me to be able to turn it on for my new rig? Thank you.
If you have a retail copy of Vista, you must activate by phone. Click Start, type "slui 4" and press ENTER.
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940315
If your copy of Vista is preinstalled on your computer, you can't use it with the new motherboard and you will need to purchase a copy of the license full of Windows. Most of the editions of Vista out of support in two months so consider Windows 7.

I have the Windows Vista operating system. Whenever I connect my computer, I get two pop ups on the taskbar. One is jucheck.exec and another is updates of Java.
I have no way to uncheck the premiera. I have only two options, restore or close. With java, I opened the properties and click to remove the check mark from updates, you click on apply and then clicked on ok, but he still continues to appear you have tips on how can stop these pop ups?
Hello
I would like to inform you that Jucheck.exe is the process that runs automatically when the Java Update tool is activated. Jucheck.exe usually checks the Internet for the software updates available and invite you to install them to keep your updated program. If you prefer to search and download the Java updates manually whenever you want, disable Java Update automatic tool disables and removes Jucheck.exe
It will be useful. For any other corresponding Windows help, do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you.

Download XP Home on computers than rn on Vista operating systems
I bought a Lap Top that runs on the Vista operating system. I have my work on a Dell under XP Home machine and want to put the whole package of XP on the Lap Top which has Vista. I was told that it was impossible, that it can only be charged on a unit of Dell. I have the XP original software still sealed and never loaded on a computer, so I don't think I would be breaking the laws. The company I worked for arrangements made with Dell for employees who worked at home to buy hundreds of computers and had them loaded with all the software that they require. This is the package of XP Home and Dell sent the discs sealed to buyers. I was one of the buyers and have a new series. The problem is that it's going to work or Vista shot of it. I am a novice and you worry mess up Vista and everything I have on the computer.
Someone, please ME SAY it IS OK AND HOW to LOAD it.

Windows XP instead of Vista.
I would like to install Windows XP on my computer and get rid of the Vista operating system. Can I do this? I only have 512 MB of Ram and 32-bit processor.Hello
There are a few things that you would have to do to install XP instead of Vista:
1. contact the manufacturer of your computer and see if the XP drivers are available for your computer model to make sure that XP has worked properly in this regard.
2. If the XP Drivers are available, buy a XP disk operating system / license. Try local computer repair shops because Microsoft sells more than XP and online sale buy you pirated copies can cause. Be very careful.
3 XP runs with 512 MB of RAM, although a little slow by today's standards.
4. do a clean install of XP. Make sure that all your data is backed up as the hard will be cleaned of everything during the Installation of XP.

I can't backup DVD for Windows Vista operating system due to the error of 0x8007001B
I can't finish a DVD upward on my Windows Vista operating system. This is due to an 0x8007001B error code. I was unable to complete the fix to services.msu
Hi mine,
This isn't a question of MSE - there is a problem with Vista or your computer or your software backup or your DVD player or its drivers or something else. We are not the right people to answer your question and give you the best possible options and solutions - you have to talk to the experts.
Please repost at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1304884961900 where specialists who understand and focus to help with these issues will be more than happy to help you.
Although not my area of expertise (and you're welcome to ignore it and just after to the other forum), I did do research in any case and believe that the problem involves the corruption on your hard drive (although I could certainly be wrong - it is more likely to be the case if the full error message includes "drive cannot find sector requested" but you don't get the full error message, so I don't know). To try to fix it, if that is the problem, follow these steps:
Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run. They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot. Answer Yes and restart to run the program. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.
If this does not work, test better clean your hard drive. To test your hard drive, check the manufacturer and try to diagnosis HD (http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) or this test: hard drive diagnostics tools and utilities (storage) - Corp of TACKtech (http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287). If it passes the tests, there's probably nothing wrong with it and you must do to the other support forum. If it fails, which include in your post on the other forum and let them advise you how to proceed.
I hope that the above solves the problem. If this isn't the case, I am confident, they can help you in the other forum, because that's what they specialize in. It would help if you posted the message Word for Word that is accurate and complete, including all codes. In addition, it would help them if you explain the difficulty you mention services involving (a link to the site where you found the solution or at least what exactly you did and what has happened or not happened when you tried). And if you've tried my suggestions above, include the results in your message (so they don't ask you to do it again and will be able to exclude).
Good luck and best wishes!

I have a Qosimio Toshiba computer and it came with trend Anitvirus software for the first year. I have the Vista operating system. I want to either update Mcafee or Norton 360. What is the best for my computer and do I uninstall the antivirus software of original Trend before or after the installation of the new software, and how do I do?
Hello
Frankly, I would not use all three, and never you have on the machine now that you must
Delete (so you have only a major antivirus on the system) do not forget to use the removal of their creator tools
or anyone who can leave problems using scraps.Download replacements, but do not install until after the removal of those present and restart.

Here's what I use and recommend: (all are free and offer exceptional protection)
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.
Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
(Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.htmlOr use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.aspAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.I hope this helps.
