How can I remove SP3 and reinstall Service Pack 2?
How can I remove SP3 and reinstall Service Pack 2? I have a software that runs only with Service Pack 2. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I suggest reading:How to remove Windows XP Service Pack 3 from your computerNote - your product support Windows XP * purposes * when you remove Service Pack 3. You will be unable to obtain a new security - that will be available and published every month (probably) to those with Service Pack 3 until April 2014.Can you be more specific with the manufacturer of software/product? Find it me hard to believe that any manufacturer of software of consequence would limit their product to a certain service pack (although I saw him - he's still amazes me.) I would like to go into it.

In the Snow Leopard installation disc fails on Mac Pro 4.1with a similar problem as mine tread, I understand exactly what I need to do

I have a working Snow Leopard in my Powerbook system is a way to use these machines to create a USB system that will work ALSO in the MAC PRO 2009?
There is way to create a "universal" Snow Leopard 10 + 6 + 8 usb key I could clone in my empty disk without removing the NVIDIA card?
Thank you very much
Try to make a clone of your powerbook bootable and save it to the USB drive. You can then boot the Mac Pro on the USB port and install the clone.
Clone - Carbon Copy clone (Often recommended because it has more features than others)

Format and install Snow Leopard on Mac Mini
Hello
- I have a Mac Mini
- Using boot camp, I have a Win10 partition which is now, the entire hard drive. Really.
- I have the installation of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.3) DVD
- I directly connect the optical drive and a wired keyboard to the system
- Start by pressing the [CTRL] key.
- Download the white screen with the Apple logo in the middle of it.
- .. then nothing. He's here. After 10 minutes, I pull the plug and restart the Windows partition and return to the slaughter of these discussion forums for clues.
Issues related to the:
- How do I FORMAT and INSTALL Snow Leopard on the Mac Mini or m, I was too impatient after the [Ctrl] restart using the OS X DVD?
- Is there an external utility that I should get to format the drive?
- I can do this in steps - can I install OS X on an external HD and then use it for the crater / rebuild the primary drive?
Input greatly appreciated!
Rade
usually it is booting by pressing the C key to start from the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive.
or start by pressing the Option key to get a list of the bootable devices that you can choose from.
See <Startup for Mac - Apple Support combinations>
NOTE: This does not imply that you run your Mac mini Snow Leopard. I guess that your wording she used to run Snow Leopard, and that your Mac mini still has a DVD/CD player are good signs.

How can I remove linux and reinstall windows 8.1?
Hello. I recently installed a distribution linux (OS elementary, Luna) on my HP Pavilion g6. My pc is preinstalled with Windows 8. I decided to evaluate linux and installed on my computer. I was not paying attention when installing and apparently replaced Windows 8. My question is, how do I get it back? I am a person without any repair records and don't have anyway make one (since I am just a computer nerd aged 15 years). I heard that HP computers have a bios recovery console, but if that's true how to reach it?
Info by the PC.
Model: Pavilion g6
Storage: 683.5 GB
RAM: 5.3 GB
Processor: AMD A8 - 4500 M APU with graphics HD Radeon (TM) x 4
Graphics card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Devicd 9903
Boot from the recovery of Windows 8 media, if you
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
With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.
If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.
For this reason, you will not be able to use the Windows 8 disc retail to activate the license incorporated, it does not recognize. That's why you need HP recovery media, otherwise you will end up having to buy a new license.

Remove all and reinstall Windows
Hello
I've updated my PC Windows 7 to Windows 8 a few months ago and a few minor but annoying problems (in particular, any program sometimes hangs when you open a file selection window, such as open file or save under).
Since I have no problem with my laptop which came with Windows 8 OEM (rather than be updated), I thought I could get all those resolved by using the function "all delete and reinstall Windows.
Could you is it someone please let me know if this is going to do a clean install, as if I had installed Windows on a formatted disk, or if she just wants to reset all the same condition as after the initial upgrade, less user profiles and data?
If I go down this path, by using the migration wizard to save all data on an external drive and it recover after reinstallation there would be a recommended way to go?
Thank you!
I understand it will remove all the data, but I wonder if Windows is reinstalled as on a formatted hard disk clean, or just reset be based on the existing installation (which can not solve my problems).
It will reinstall Windows 8, but all your personal files and applications, and the settings will be deleted.
It will more than likely solve any problem you may encounter.

Windows 8 or 7 if I have remove all and reinstall windows?
I think about the choice of trying to delete everything and reinstall windows from the general tab of the PC settings for windows 8.je downloaded windows 8 Microsoft when it first came out was running windows 7 I was wondering what will happen if I do this windows 8 or 7 because windows 7 has been pre-loaded on my Toshiba Satellite when I brought. The reason for wanting to do this is to try to get some speed to my laptop... Windows 8 was the special offer for $ 15... Have a system image on a hard drive about 6 months ago so can go this way if needed, but that would have some unwanted junk on it,
If reset you Windows 8, all of your personal files will be deleted including all applications and your settings will be reset. All the apps that the is come with your PC will be reinstalled, but all other applications will be deleted.
However, you can use the image of the system Windows 8 If you have invited to insert discs or recovery media supplied with your PC.

HP Photosmart 7760 and Mac Snow Leopard
I just had to get a new computer... under Mac OSX 10.6 - Snow Leopard.
Everything installed beautifully, but my old Photosmart 7760 inkjet printer will not work. When I go to print, the printer window opens and displays "error". I reinstalled, I disconnected and reconnected the printer, I restarted the computer. I went to a few other blogs help - no help!
Can anyone here help me? I really don't want to have to buy a new color printer. It still works very well!
TIA!
I finally found it - I knew there must be an answer! HP downloads didn't work, but Apple support was a universal HP driver download. The moment where I downloaded it, the old Photosmart printer worked like a charm.
Thanks to all who responded.

I tried to repair the disk, he says no, structure of nodes not valid. What should I do now?

Running same virtual machine in the Lion and the snow leopard cause problems?
I just loaded a new hard drive with Mac OS X Lion to run some programs that run only on Lion. My Mac serves mainly through Snow Leopard installed on the main hard drive. I can boot to an OS or the other. Two questions:
(1) can I have my a copy of VMware Fusion 4.1.1 installed on the disk of Lion and leopard snow by car? Of course, I can only use one at a time since I can start only upward in an OS.
(2) if I do the above and open my Windows XP VM on Lion, are all changes to the virtual machine that would make it unusable under Snow Leopard (or vice versa)?
Bill
Make sure that your VM is off - not suspended--before the host.
Then it should work without problem -
