  Hello

  system restore points are not here forever

  It depends on the amount of space reserved for restoring the system restore points on how you

  and as a new one is created the oldest one is deleted

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  There is a box to check points over 5 days which must obviously have checked back 7 days?

  or 7 days a rough estimate on your part?

  and here's how to change the amount of space for the restoration of the system increase or decrease to restore more or less points in the future

  Hello

  You can not access the system from the BIOS recovery.

  F8 boot Options is your hope, but you say that they do not work

  You need a Microsoft DVD to do a startup repair, or a restoration of the system, thanks to this Guide.

  Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.

  Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

  If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

  4. Conclusion

  If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.

  Unfortunately, you have to buy it.

• reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

  We have 4 old desktop computers with windows xp I want to reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

  I bought a HP desktop computer and dell preinstalled with Windows XP. The office has not worked for a few years, he has the processor are P4 and slow work.

  I recently bought a desktop computer and wanted to know can I use the same license key to get Windows XP installed on my new desktop computer.

  Note: I have lost my original installation of windows CD but have the office and Windows XP product code is available to me.

  The old HP desktop and dell came with a license with the sticker on the side.

  Any PC which came with a sticker with a key to activate product on it has a license that is related to this PC (and only this PC) for ever. It is not legal to install on a PC using the key videos from another PC.

  If the PC you want to install XP on still has its sticker, then as much as you have a compatible installation XP CD, XP can be re-installed using the key on the sticker.

  Only commercial versions of XP can be moved from one PC to another. With the commercial versions, the activation key came with the media, not on a label stuck on the PC.

• Code product key? had reboot my computer and I need a code for Windows Vista from the bottom of my laptop

  Hi, I'm having a problem with my laptop. I bought my laptop online, a year ago, and I got a virus. Then, I had my computer reset and I need a code for Windows Vista from the bottom of my laptop. After looking through records and information, we found that he had no number. He worked initially but then recently he was asked for a product key or something of the sort code. I was using my laptop but I cannot customise my background etc.

  Can you help me?

  Thank you very much

  The code is located on a label and is a 25-digit alpha-numeric (and very hard to read) code separated into 5 groups of 5 numbers separated by dashes.  If you can't find it on the bottom of your laptop, open the battery housing and remove the battery and look there - I know of cases where this is where it was placed.

  If you can't find the product key, your only choice is to contact the manufacturer and see if they can help.  Sometimes the relocations made with recovery disks don't need to be activated (depends on the manufacturer and their recovery process must ask them and confirm before you spend money on the recovery discs).  A valid product key is required for activation if activation is required - there is no way around this problem.  And in case you are considering on it, you can't switch from one product not enabled - you need to do a clean and complete installation (update disc will not work).

  I hope this helps and that the manufacturer can help you.

  Good luck!

  Yes, it but is somewhat limited, I have use Ghost (you would need to buy - see below) or Acronis True Image. My preference is ghost but free trial Acronis will work and there is nothing to prevent you from using Windows 7 backup system and Acronis.

• I use the 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 from the Satellite on the Qosmio?

  Hello

  I have 2 laptops Toshiba, Qosmio X 300 - 14U and Satellite T130 - 12 K, and my question is:
  I use the 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 from the Satellite on the Qosmio?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi frakri,

  What drivers tell you exactly? Display, chipset, sound, etc. ?

  Theoretically, it should be possible, but it s according to the material. For example if your Qosmio has the same chipset as satellite you can use these drivers. Otherwise it wouldn't work because the hardware is different.
  First, check the features!

  In addition, you can get all the drivers here:

• I downloaded Windows XP from the Windows Service Center. It is an exe file. How can I extract this to a disc and burn I can install it?

  I downloaded Windows XP from the Windows Service Center. It's a .exe. When I click on it, it is extracted to a folder I called "xp". How can I obtain these data on a disk to install XP from a CD? Should what steps I take? I am running Windows 7.

  original title: Burning a disk XP

  Putting aside if the 64-bit version of XP is what you need, when you ran the exe, the file that was extracted (i.e., in the folder named "xp") should have been an ISO file.

  Files ISO are CD images and are intended to be burned (NOT copied) to a writable CD.

  Assuming that you have the correct hardware (CD burner), you can burn your ISO as described here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Burn-a-CD-or-DVD-from-an-ISO-file

  Note that what you downloaded is NOT "Windows XP Mode" which is available for use with Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition.  The image you uploaded is for installation on a separate computer (or in a dual-boot configuration) - assuming you have the required license keys.

• white background for hours during the installation of windows 7 from the dvd hp system recovery

  I own a dv7 - 3186cl and recently bought a new hard drive to replace the damaged one.  When I go to install windows 7 from the recovery of the system DVD purchased by hp, it loads a blank screen background image and stays there.

  I ran Diagnostics on the computer before this point and he passed all the tests.

• Windows vista USB flash drive installation AND recover the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disk

  Hi all

  I formatted my laptop some time ago. Now I want to reinstall windows vista (came along with my laptop). The thing is due to a problem that my CD drive does not work so I would like to install windows vista by using a USB key. Can you get it someone please let me know if this is possible... If Yes, how I've go ahead make a bootable USB.

  As someone can tell me if there is a way to retrieve the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disc.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  This can help, but you will need a Vista system to create the working bootable USB key:http://www.askvg.com/how-to-create-bootable-usb-drive-to-install-windows-vista/

  As for the product key, it should be on a sticker on the laptop (usually on the bottom). If it is not readable, contact the manufacturer for further assistance. As we said already, the product key is not on the installation disc.

  Replace broken laptop optical drives is not too difficult, you can see this as another option.

• Download black screen during installation of Windows 7 from the disk.

  Original title: loading Windows 7 with windows 8 is already installed

  Dell computer brand new.  (Terrible dealer. They charge $ for help on something other than the material.)  The new computer comes with windows 8 is installed.

  Like any windows 8.  Ordinate of windows 7.  They sent the disc and no key.

  Dell will not help with installation unless you pay them $!  They say that it's a Microsoft product, and they are not obliged to help, even if it was purchased from them!  It's like buying a new washing machine or a car.  You need to contact the manufacture to get help with it?

  No, you communicate with the store, it was purchased from.  This applies to any new product I know. But not with Dell!

  Sorry for the rant.  I just found this totally outrageous situation.

  MY PROBLEM:

  Installing windows 7 from the drive, they sent.  Ten minutes into it the screen goes all black.  It is said that there is a file on the disk.  Also a button to continue.

  I stopped the installation and am at a loss as what to do...

  Thank you, Al

  Hello

  Have you checked to see if your model computer has Windows 7 drivers available from Dell for it?

  If not, it will not install properly or work properly.

  You press F12 in a Dell to change the Boot order
