• Problems of Windows 7 - can I go back to XP after Vista-XP-Win 7 upgrades?

  I had XP.  It worked.  I've upgraded to Vista 2 years back which took a few weeks of BSOD to operate.  Vista has always been slower than XP so I just put again to Windows 7 any pending improvements performance claimed - or at least be no worse off.  I ran the Upgrade Advisor and there is no reported problem.  Some software has been marked as non-compatible, and so I was not surprised when it does not work.

  After the upgrade, there are 2 questions that I expect not.

  (Minor problem - I found that Nikon Capture NX software does not and does not always work with Windows 7.  This was not reported by the Advisor to upgrade at all.  I know - I could have looked at the Nikon Web site first - but if you need to check all the sites so 3rd party before an upgrade, which is actually the value of an Upgrade Advisor?  I use this software a lot and I bought Windows 7 in good faith only after you run the Upgrade Advisor).

  Major problem - my system now BSOD randomly while it was steady but slow with Vista.  I don't have the time or desire to go through another 2 weeks of calls to technical support I've had with the Vista update.  I don't want to even start the process this time.

  There is an option described in the FAQ do come back a bit in Vista.  It is not really solve my problem in the long term.  Is there a way I can go back to XP and then I can maybe try and return the Windows 7 to the retailer as "not fit for purpose" because it is not what I expected that he (i.e. work at least as well as Vista during the installation and work with the software, I expected to work with after you run the Software Advisor).  It's a real shame having spent $200 on 2 updates that leave me worse off that when I started - who does not want progress for me!

  My question is to go back to where I started - XP.  I did not have energy, this time to start on another long around the diagnosis BSOD and error code checking and am not prepared to do a clean install and having to reinstall all the rest.  I did all this for Vista for 2 weeks and wouldn't do it again.  Windows 7 * Premium House is fairly and squarely a consumer product and I am more than happy to put all the work that must bring other work produced consumer goods.   The coffee machine toaster, TV, Wii, PS3, iPod etc etc all worked pretty well out of the box well!

  So, please, is it a route to undo the Windows 7 and Vista updated in 1 or 2 steps and go back to XP (which was itself an upgrade of Windows 95) without spending more money or invest a lot more time?

• Can I use the product key to my Home Premium pre installed windows 7 64-bit OS that are in my label of windows laptop back?

  I downloaded the iso file of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit. can I use the product key to my Home Premium pre installed windows 7 64-bit OS that are in my label of windows laptop back...

  If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7 Home Premium, you should have a recovery if partition:

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

  For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

  Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

  ------------------------

  If the recovery partition is damaged or does not, you can then use the downloaded Home Premium as an alternative.

• Pavillion M4-1006tx: 10 Windows reset on a laptop pre-installed Windows 8

  Hello

  M4-1006tx Pavilion my laptop came with pre-installed Windows 8. I have upgraded to Windows 10 last July and now I would like to reset this installation of WIndows 10. I discovered that there are 2 methods to do a reset:

  1. in the "settings" inside Windows 10 frame and choose the reset option

  2. thanks to the recovery of the system (F11).

  If I choose to reset through F11, it will install Windows back 8 or 10 Windows instead? As it happens with Windows pre-installed 8.

  And if I choose to reset settings of Windows 10, will it suffer no problem at reset?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  To answer your questions in order:

  1. the option reset under will reinstall Windows 10 - it is impossible to say if you would run in any problems using this method, but it still does not work for everyone.

  2. the option to access the Recovery Manager via F11 at startup would normally be to reinstall the original operating system (Windows 8), but it will not work now as a upgrade to Windows 10 breaks this feature - if you want to reinstall Windows 8, you must use the recovery media (disk or flash drive) that you created when you bought first Notepad - a guide on the reinstallation of Windows 8 of the recovery media can be found on the following link.

  Performing a HP System Recovery - Windows 8

  3. Fortunately, there is also an option at your disposal 3.  As long as the current installation of Windows 10 has activated Ok after upgrade from 8.1, you can simply perform a new installation of Windows 10 as stated in the guide on the following link.  Note: On the activation screen, select "I don't have a product key" - Windows will activate automatically once installation is complete.

  No you can't. Given that it's a Dell and it came with Windows XP pre-installed, it's an OEM of Windows version.  The biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is that its license it permanently binds to the computer first it is installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold, or given to outside (except with the original computer). If the computer dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

  And let me ask you as if you checked to make sure everything on the Dell is compatible with Windows 7, and there are Windows 7 drivers for all your hardware that requires it.

• Any who save a pre-installed Windows xp home edition that crashed...

  Hello
  My cousin had this pre-installed windows xp that the computer crashed recently, keep prompting
  for a recovery disc for repair, but this machine is pre-installed with a windows xp. Now to make
  the store that sold this machine went crashing too worse question. So what can he do to recover the
  computer? Thank you.

  Hi Daniel,.

  Thanks for bearing with me, now the recovery disc creator, is anyway I can enter the first hard disk.
  Or maybe some software I can download from microsoft? OOP! Sorry I ask, who cares about repair or
  maintenance of software, we sell only. Anyway, is that the recovery disk creator is something like the recovery console?
  I'm treating this horse dead as a direct. Anything radical might be considered.

• Question: How can I format a PC running pre-installed windows Vista?

  I would like to format my PC because of the problems I've been as blue screen errors.

  I bought a PC pre-installed Windows Vista and I don't have the DVD of windows.
  Question: How can I format the hard drive?

  Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  ____________________________________________________________

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  __________________________________________________________

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

• How to Dual boot Windows 7 on one machine pre-installed Windows 8

  Hi, my laptop came with pre-installed Windows 8, now I would also like to install Windows 7 Ultimate(Dual Boot) on the same machine, I have the DVD and the product key for windows 7. I made a partition (NTFS) on the hard drive to install windows 7, please help me in installing windows 7 and also to get an option to select the operating system to start.

  When the dual-boot, it is recommended that you install the oldest, all operating system first, in this case, Windows 7. Because of the risk of destroying your installation of Windows 8 and making it no longer starts, I suggest first, back up your installation of Windows 8 and also create a system repair disc.

  The best recommendation would be to install Windows 7 on a virtual machine:

• I've lost a program window.

  A strange thing just happened. Windows 8 and I opened a program and moved the window to the left side of the screen using the mouse. Normally, the window goes so far, stops and when you release the mouse button the window occupies half of the PC screen. Not with this program. Moved (to the left on this occasion) and the window completely disappeared, mainly I think because I expected it automatically stops and then release the mouse button.

  I now open the program in the taskbar, but cannot see the program window, nor can I get it on screen. It does not maximize. Restarting the computer does not work either, even a power full / stop on. Whenever I load the program it loads with the window 'opens' where I can just not up to it. Tried to uninstall the program and reinstall the window, but it remains firmly "off screen".

  Has anyone ever encountered this before? If so, how can I return my window on my screen? It only occurs with a program so it could be a bug in the program, but any help would be much appreciated.

  Hi Ken.

  Thanks for the reply, but I don't get all the guests that you suggest so it seems that this might not work using the modern interface.
  Interestingly, the program's Payroll Manager of Moneysoft although maybe it's just a coincidence.
  The closest, I managed to get is to maximize the program through task and first manager that I couldn't do anything other that minimize or exit, however, while playing I managed to get it back. Don't have a clue how. Just saw a small corner appear at the bottom left of the screen, just enough to get the mouse and pull it out.
  Thus, while you may not have provided the exact solution you certainly made me try a few things in the same direction and finally fall on the solution. Thank you.

• The keys Home and end no longer work when I enlarge the program window

  As I'm editing, I often use the 'home' and 'end' keys on my keyboard extended to the beginning of the sequence, that I'm editing, or to jump to the end (I use the "home" button more often, but I always use 'end' from time to time).

  This behavior works as I expect when I have the window of editing 'active' (by clicking on it). The behavior works even when the program window is active, which is very useful. (And because the source window has a different content, I'm not surprised that it interprets the keys start and end for this image, which is also useful also.)

  The problem for me arises when I want to watch my full screen in the sequence and use the key to accent grave ('), alias the tilda (~), in order to maximize the window of my program. Now my image fills the screen and I can watch my sequence down to maximum resolution. But when I get to the end and want to come back at the beginning, the 'home' key does not work. I have to shrink the window until the key will bring back me at the beginning of the sequence.

  This bothered me for so long that I was editing in first, but I have never taken the time to see if anyone has a solution to this problem. Does anyone know how to make this work because I expect to? If having a keyboard shortcut to the beginning of the sequence is useful when you work with a screen that shows all the windows, the keyboard shortcut would be even more useful when you do not see what you are doing?

  Is this a bug? Can I ask it as a feature in the next update? Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Activate the program monitor before switching to fullscreen (~).

  Hello

  First thing to do is to go to the HP website and see if the XP drivers are available for your model of HP.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  If there is no XP drivers, XP does not work for you.

  If the XP drivers are available, looking for a place to buy XP, which is a terrible thing to do as Microsoft did not sell XP for many years.

  You run the very serious risk of buying pirated XP software from anywhere on the Net.

  Stay with your preinstalled Windows 8.

  See you soon.
