  • Install Vista on the new hard drive with upgrade media

    Original harddrive in Lenovo has failed. I replaced but didn't have a recovery disk. I bought Windows Ultimate up grade, and he scored when I installed the new drive. After the initial installation, new drive must be reformatted (again). Now windows says my registration number is already installed. It was purchased by me and installed on my original Lenovo machine. I have the original product code on the back of my Lenovo and the new product code on Vista Ultimate box. What can I do to register again? Thank you. Mike

    You must first install the original operating system and activate.  THEN install the Vista upgrade and which activate.  You can't ignore all during the installation of the original operating system.  You can't do a full install of a drive to upgrade (or product key).  I suggest that contact the manufacturer for a set of discs of recovery of re - install the original system.  It is the only way that this is possible.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Last update adds a new tab with social media links to the exsisting homepages. How can I stop this?

    When I open Firefox, my home pages (4) shall, after a slight delay, a new tab appears with links to social media and the new tab is active. I want to stop the new tab to open!

    Uh-oh, you may have installed a non official package containing the update. If your download history indicates the source, can report you here?

    Your "more system details' shows the extension MySearchDial. I recommend you to remove that from the addons page (if possible) or from the control panel.

    Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > Add ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then find MySearchDial and remove (or at least turn it off).

    If necessary, open the Control Panel, uninstall a program, then click on "installed on" heading of the column to bring recent infections, uh, additions, upward.

  • Relocation of the oracle database to a new server with upgrade oracle software

    Hi guys,.

    Here's the scenario, we have an existing demo Oracle 9.2 database on Solaris 5.9 server. Asked me this transfer to another server with the same OS but with installed Oracle 10g software. The original plan was to mount the exisiting Oracle home of the original server to the new server and copy there all the databases files and set up the database.

    Here are the steps:
    -Issue a statement "controlfile alter trace database backup", download the script of the trace file
    -Copy all database files to the new server
    -Change the settings files
    -Make a startup mount recreate control files, data recovery and startup of the database on the new server.

    I suggested that we to a tablespace of transport but cause limited resources and that the 9.2 database doesn't have this feature, we cannot carry out this process. Also, I can't make an exp/imp of the database as we really have little resources on a disc. I was wondering if the steps I listed above are correct? Or would result in an error?

    Is it possible not to move the files from the mounted disk and treat it as it is and then upgrade the Oracle 9.2 database to Oracle 10.2?

    Yes you can request the 9.2-10.2 online upgrade, see upgrade guide

  • Clean install with upgrade HP DVD Wizard

    If I had to do a clean install of W7 with the hp upgrade disk, can I still use the upgrade wizard AFTER install to get the drivers and other things on this disc of the wizard, or is it just to use "upgrades"?

    Also, read the instructions on the Web site, it is said to run the wizard disk before installing W7, but I guess just do it if you do an upgrade and not a clean install. Is this correct?

    Dan,

    The desktop upgrade assistant DVD works almost the same way as the portable version.  It will check your BIOS and if necessary, install the latest version.  And Yes, insert the DVD after the custom/clean installed.  The drivers and software for your model will be installed.

After the following process is finished, you must license the DRM from your Windows 7 computer.

    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkId=105000

    a. right-click ResetDRM.exe and then click Run as administrator to reset the Windows Media DRM.

    b. read the multimedia file ripped in Windows Media Player 12 for re - test Windows Media DRM.

  • MY Hard Drive died and I need to re - install my upgrade disk

    My HD is dead.  I bought a new HD to replace.  Unfortunately we do not have back ups or anything, but it seems that I can not put my upgrade code to complete the installation.  I don't know what to do.   I'd rather not go buy another license that I already have several licenses to upgrade.  Is there a work around?  I can't be the first person on the planet with this situation!

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Wiping Hard Drive, Reinstalled with Windows 7 with upgrade disk product key error

    My computer has been acting upward, so I back up hard drive and erased the hard drive with the BACK CLEAN ALL command. I then reinstalled windows 7 from my Windows 7 Upgrade disk and restore my files on hard disk. The computer works fantastic and returned half of the memory of the hard drive. A few days later, I get a message on the screen that I have 30 days left until I can produce a product key from the original Windows installation, does not accept the upgrade product key.

    I tried the product key located on the bottom of my laptop for Windows Vista comes with the HP computer. It does not work and it gave me no disk backup for Windows Vista from HP.

    I called Microsoft and they told me to contact HP for the product key. I see on this forum that someone else has written a similar plea, because it is a plea, and HP said to contact Microsoft. In other words, Microsoft says to contact HP and HP says to contact Microsoft.

    I use Microsoft since Windows 3.2 operating systems and have bought a lot of products of them. It's my 3rd HP laptop, my wife is on her 2nd HP laptop. Well you know what? If I don't get this resolved quickly by one of your companies, and I'm not remember Microsoft, I'm through the two of you.

    I don't see where Microsoft is not being fooled off but when it's to the detriment of a loyal customer, so don't worry. HP is also responsible for this. An upgraded version of Windows 7 (to upgrade from Vista or XP) should be smart enough (and I thought it was) to remember that I had the original version and its product key should be enough. Also I don't never told me that I had to keep the old product keys, and it doesn't matter anyway because the product key is always available in my laptop HP, but it does not work.

    I'm not buying another HP without your help and actually buying an Apple Mac for my wife and my next computer if it is not resolved. I think that HP is probably as bad as Microsoft so that it will not be solved and I'm not shelling out more money for something I already own.

  • Install windows 7 on a new pc and upgrade another pc with windows 7 vista.

    What do need me to make this work... I just built a new pc with no OS installed, so I want to install Win 7 on the new pc, but also upgrade my old pc which is running Vista (pre-installed PC on when bought) without having to buy two different copies of Win 7.  Is this possible?

    Laughing out loud

    You need 2 Windows 7 licenses to make 2 sets.

    A single license is a single Installation.

    You need: a FULL license and a license upgrade.
