My Windows 7 laptop will not be the same aknowlage that Halo 2 for vista is in disc tray

OK, so I'm relatively new to windows, but I havn't seen this problem before. I did my homework on this game, reviews on Amazon says it ran fine on windows 7, and according to the thing of microsoft compadability Center, should be. I have been looking around and have seen discussions with people stuck with issuses in the game, but also far as my laptop is conserned it is foreign. I can hear it whirring upward when I put the disc in, start going strong for a second or 2 and then stop, like its trying to read but can not. Nothing apears on my desk. Again, I am new to windows, so this can be a very simple problem.

  • Uploaded image of Windows 7 Professional will not accept the product key that came with my computer.

    I have a Dell laptop, Studio, approximately 1 year, delivered with Windows 7 Professional installed - the label with the genuine product key is located at the bottom of the laptop. Shortly after I got it I deleted the recovery partition to make room for Linux installed next to Windows. I had problems with Windows system (mainly caused by me bad installation software and drivers without proper backups) so I decided to reinstall Windows. I had already deleted the recovery partition and wouldn't use it anyway because I prefer a clean system without unwanted from the manufacturer in this regard. I did not receive a Windows operating system installation DVD with my computer, so I downloaded a (64-bit Windows 7 Professional, the same as the original operating system) which already had SP1 on it (the version of Win7Pro installed Dell's not SP1). I installed Windows on this drive and attempted to activate using the product key that came with my computer, but it would not accept the key. I don't have time to try to solve this problem, but now the period of one month is up and my computer does not work correctly.
    I suspect that the problem may be due to me using the SP1 disc. If this is the case, should I reinstall Windows again? I have * NOT * GOING to buy another product key when I have already paid for a genuine version of Windows. I just want to be able to use my computer without the ridiculous slowdowns caused by pre-installed software and the way I chose.

    Thanks for any help with this problem, I really need fo fix my computer.

    original title: Activation error, Windows 7 Professional
    Windows product key: *-* - M3DJT - 4J3WC-733WD
    Windows license Type: OEM SLP

    The key to your report is your OEM SLP key which can not be activated. This isn't the key to COA.

    but the key I tried to use is what I copied on the COA the day I got the computer of the book where I put all the information on my computers.

    Is the product key in your book is the partial key in your report?
    You must change the product key to the one on your COA.
    Check your compartment of the COA.
    The other solution is to reinstall your Dell OEM recovery disks or recovery partition. This self will activate your computer.
    Additional information:

    Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:

    (A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

    (B) COA SLP: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or at the bottom, [or in the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but must be used only in certain situations (for example, if the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone. (Note: all manufacturers that use the SLP OEM system are bound by contract to include a certificate of Authenticity sticker (COA), which has a COA SLP key, on the computer)

    Back to a system restore point previous fixed the problem and I could again play the files in Media Player, but during the night that Windows updates installed and the morning I could not play these .mp4 files once more. So I restored to a point earlier, changed my updates so that they are is more automatic and by installing each day at a time, I finally isolated the problem in Internet Explorer 10. If I install that, just Windows Media Player will not play these files.
    I tried a manual update of Internet Explorer 10, turn off all the options of toolbars shit and everything, thinking that when it automatically installs those who may be included, but that has not helped. Had to go back to my previous IE10 restore point. So no matter what, Internet Explorer 10 kills my ability to play .mp4 on Windows Media Player files.
    I don't have toolbars running on IE9 at all.
    I know that's obvious answer is 'do not install Internet Explorer 10' or if I do, download another player for .mp4 files. But the fact is, it shouldn't happen, it is indicative of something being wrong, and I would like TO be able to install Internet Explorer 10 AND use Windows Media Player to play these files. If someone else has had this problem, or know a way to fix it?
    Here are my system specs:
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
    Intel Core i5 - 3350P @ 3.10 GHz CPU
    ASRock H77M LGA 1155 motherboard
    8 GB DDR3 240 - Pin SD RAM

    It sounds like your question. I think you should uninstall this update and

    I tried myself after experiencing the same problem and error code. I uninstalled the KB2670838 update, and then my Windows Media Player finally worked again. I also found that IE 10 must be uninstalled as well. Installation of IE 10 also automatically installs the update of KB2670838 platform. After uninstalling KB2670838, IE 10 automatically uninstall with it, better you hide two updates so that they do not install again. From the link in the previous post, I learned that the platform update is having problems of conflict with the AMD drivers. Good luck to you and hope this helps.

  • Pavilion dv6 - 6153cl laptop - will not install the video drivers.

    Recently, a friends Pavillion dv6 - 6153cl laptop started bluescreens frequent (many x 50 on igdpmd64.sys).   (on Win7 64 bit, completely up to date)

    I came across this site and downloaded the current drivers but try as I can, they will not install. The message implies that they are bad drivers, but I have confirmed that they are the 2 parters - driver package AMD, including ATI and Intel drivers for the video "switchable". Most of the AMD install - except the 2 pilots and the C++ package components. AMD checks prior approval from hardware to install and does not renounce it.

    The error is:

    "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing this software.
    or it just keeps trying to install it until it skips this step and goes to the next component, which gives the error the failure at the end.

    I searched this site and found a number of references to similar problems. I've updated the BIOS, all other drivers, removed the old drivers (it is now running on Win VGA drivers), updated part of HP software, run a repair on Windows update and Installer, tried the previous version available, uninstalled C++, cancelled prior unpacking, checked Mode drivers safe, ran HP Support Assistant and tried to manually launch the installation program in compatibility mode admin.

    Windows Update also wanted to update the 2 drivers but who do not. Twice. He will probably try again.

    I ran sfc and Auditor - alls well with the other drivers.

    There is no obvious change that percipitated the question.

    The WinUpdate KB2670838 that sometimes causes a similar error has not been installed.

    The system works at normal temperatures. And it stopped crashing. But only 600 x screen resolution.

    Any suggestions on how to get the drivers to install?

    My friend decided to hold the laptop store as they needed more functional. Of course, they were able to update the video drivers well obviously had a problem with an obscure audio problem. (audio drivers have been included in the package of video driver HP that they perhaps do not use) All is now well and unfortunately I cannot report on what drivers, they used to solve the problem. Thanks for your help, Zak
