  • How to install Windows 7 on several desktop computers?

    I would like information about how to install Windows 7 on desktop sixteen I just built.

    I build them from scratch. I want to know how to install Windows 7 on them.

    What type of disc do I need to buy... Do I have to buy 16 disks in Windows 7... or is there a simpler solution?

    OK, I'll look into the full retail version. That means, correct me if I'm wrong, what with the commercial full version Windows, I can install it on all built I want, as many times I want, it just cannot be installed on multiple computers that is active.

    No, incorrect.

    Full version (retail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    But, even once, correct me if I'm wrong, OEM, once the computer version dies, the OEM licenses dies with him, and I'll need to buy another license... Fix?

    Fix

    So my best bet would be to go with the full retail version of Windows 7?

    Depends on, which is why it is best to get full retail Windows 7, but they are difficult to obtain.

    What version of Windows 7 System Builder? I've never heard of this, but I see it at Walmart.com, etc..

    System Builder - aka OEM license.

    I have a laptop Windows Vista Home Premium that is trying to connect to my Windows 7 desktop. It worked fine when my desktop computer was Windows XP and I was running the same laptop Vista Windows 7, I am now.

    What has changed? I have a modem/router to two sons and has not changed the settings. I just tried opening port 3389 and cutting the firewall of Windows with the same results.

    I have a VPN and the game works fine.

    Get remote desktop dialog box for opening and saving in and I know that it is configured correctly, because when I take my Vista laptop to the office the RD connection works fine and I can see and I work on my Windows 7 desktop computer, so the problem is either something on my home network or with my ISP - using DSL - ideas?

  • Start Aurora in the desktop computers and modern views?

    Is it possible to launch Aurora into the office modern views and at the same time? When Aurora first introduced the modern vision, launch from a shortcut from the taskbar on the desktop Windows always open the desktop view, while the launch of the tile to start screen launched the modern vision.

    Is it still possible?

    The office and the app (modern) "Windows 8 Touch" now share the same profile. This means that you now have access to the same Favorites, history, saved passwords, etc. of these two applications. However, due to a limitation of our profile system, you can't run both at the same time while they share a profile.

    However, you can run both at the same time if you first create a separate profile for each application:

    1. Start the Profile Manager, create a profile named "desktop", then exit the Profile Manager.
    2. Create a shortcut to start Firefox with these command line arguments: P - Office - no-remote
    3. Use the shortcut to start Firefox using your profile "desktop."
    4. Use the normal icon of Firefox to run a second copy of Firefox using your default profile.
    5. Set up Firefox Sync if you want two profiles to have the same bookmarks and other data. (Treat the two "computers" as two different profiles following the installation instructions).
    6. In the default profile, use the menu item "restart in Windows 8 Touch' to switch to the modern application.

    I'm sorry that this process is so complicated! We want to make it easier to use both applications at the same time, but we will have to make some very complicated changes to our code for this purpose, it is not likely to happen quickly.

    For more advice and documentation on the use of profiles, see this article from community on the use of multiple profiles.
