• Reload Windows Vista for Dell laptop

  I have a Dell laptop inspiron and have just replaced the drive hard as the previous hard drive failed. I want to reload Vista Premium to the new hard drive by using the product key on the laptop that I had Vista on a drive when the laptop was purchased first. How can I do this? Thank you.

  Hello

  Contact the manufacturer of Dell 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 $

  ____________________________________________________________

  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

• A system totally crashed after downloading the update of windows 7 (from VHP) reloaded vista starting the Dell restore partition and reattach the requirements. Now, how can I restart upgrade

  OK, here's the deal... the Dell laptop had a recurring software validation fixed an error that I couldn't keep. I would fix it, Vista should go out and update itself and then I would reboot and bang, back right to the error again, I decided to scrap Vista and install W7. I corrected the error again once restarted in a stable Outlook, downloaded files of Windows 7 upgrade and then discovered that the netframework wasn't right, so I downloaded this solution, am to halfway through it and got a system error. HA! I'll just copy this download upgrade of the window on a USB key, hover over all my personal files on the usb drive, and reinstall Vista from the Dell partition, which I did. Then, I updated all the stuff with the Advisor to upgrade of windows, is gone in Windows 7 upgrade file I moved it to the USB and realized that this point in time, I was an asshole. What a breakthrough!  OK, now how to restart the upgrade process. I paid the money, done the downloads, message, so my hands, discussed and done all the other stuff I've done since the upgrade of Windows 3.1 (each time). Now what...

  First I would contact the people who sold you download and see if they will send again free of charge - explain the problem.  I guess you still have the product key, they have sent you that shouldn't be a problem (it will work with any download the same version of Windows7).

  Then run Windows7 Upgrade Advisor to see if your system can handle Windows7 or if she need for software or material removed or updgraded: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx.  Follow the instructions he gives as a result of the program (in fact, you should do this first - then you can deal with the download).

  After that, you need to further questions in the Windows7 Forums: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7install/threads where people who specialize in the installation and upgrade to Windows7 will be more than happy to help you in the process.  This is a forum for Vista, and you need to talk to experts in Windows7.

  I hope this helps.

  Hi Kalyan,

  From my research, this error message indicates that you have an old version of Samsung drivers installed on the computer.

  Several clients are faced with this question after that they have updated the version of Android to 4.3, but the version of the driver is not updated.

  I suggest you uninstall all traces of Samsung is installed in the list programs and then reinstall the device drivers Samsung from the link provided in the previous post.

  To uninstall a program see the link below.

  Uninstall or change a program

  Once you uninstall programs related to Samsung download and install the drivers for Samsung devices.

  Hi Hema,

  Thank you for your kind reply.

  I bought the system in a Dell store allowed, but the thing is I'm getting confused on post purchase experience.  The bag pack which the seller gave me apparently local, when I refused to take it, he assured me that I will get a real bag after a few days. I also think that I cheated from windows.

  I will be much obliged if you can read the issue in the context (the conversation with the windows community)-

  My question - what is the use of "slmgr / / ato" command, my system is watch a range error code 0x80072EF7, when I run this command. can be solved?

  response-

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  According to the publication of the description and the error code that you get when running ' slmgr / / ato "command, it seems that you have any question in your Windows activation.

  Use of slmgr / / ato command:

  For volume systems, with a KMS host key retail editions or a key to activate Multiple (MAK) installed /atoprompts Windows to attempt activation online. Activate Windows license and product key from the Microsoft server. If you receive error 0x80072EF7 code then I suggest you to try the steps outlined in the article below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

  My question-

  I can't run these technical stuffs on my computer. I'm scared I might lose the original settings since I'm not familiar with computer terminology. I didn't activate windows, I run the command "slmgr/ato' because of Microsoft technical team asked me to do the same. The reality is that I just bought a new Dell laptop, which came with no reinstalled windows, but dealer told me it communicates me windows 8.1pro as compliment (when I asked him which win. I should use win10 update or win original 8.1). and the cost of windows is not mentioned in the Bill. I was not aware at the time of the purchase that I won't have a preinstalled windows system, because I asked the price for laptop with the desired configuration and win8.1. I never thought that I buy a DOS system. I paid for almost the same price for laptop with "win 8.1pro" brokers in the area compare to preinstalled laptop computer sing.language win8.1. After 2 days, when I realized the question and asked the technical team at Microsoft to see if windows that is installed on my system is authentic or not, and they told me that windows is authentic, after checking with my key.  From there, my doubt starts Can a windows be true, even if the user has no evidence that he has purchased? Is the only information is the product key which certifies the genuine windows? What is the risk if the dealer gives the same key to another customer as a "compliment".

  Once I shared the issue with Microsoft support, they tried to hear me, but I think that they have not properly my concern. However, they asked me to run that command and message showed that windows is already activated. Since then, I thought that it could be someone else can also use the same key, I tried to check this order 4 days after. Since then, this error shows. Now, I want to solve each and every error on windows, I will also be very grateful if you could provide me the only way to learn how to check the real windows.

  response-

  Yes, I agree with you, your concern on the product key. It is true that your computer vendor could give the same product key to the other person as a gift too. If another person uses the same key to activate the OS, then you might get pop up to activate your Windows or other activation errors.

  You can see the article mentioned below to check if your OS is authentic.

  My question-

  Today, I called again to Microsoft helpline years technical support says my concern again. This time they told me that 'the ID of the product' which I use is enabled on other computers, but still found my authentic windows. I wonder, earlier the chat session which is held with the technical support told me that no one can use the same key that I use. If it someone trying to do it won't affect my computer because I am one who is authentic and the first user. I don't understand why are there different versions of the truths in the company for the same problem?

  I feel very sad that the company like Microsoft is not able to do something for their customers like me who are less sophisticated techno and want to become authentic windows user! Now, I think there must be a link any between the 'error', I've mentioned above and even the activation key on a different system.  I'm afraid how it would affect my system if other systems get activated by the same key. I don't know what are the services that I won't be able to enjoy if my windows become ingenuine later. Kindly guide me how to raise my complain about best way (with respect to the argument) to the dealer or authority be it is.

  response-

  If you have a valid key, then you will be able to turn it on again. If you call our support team then they will check into his tool and validate it, after doing this they will validate your key and help by activating the latter, if it turns out anyway.

  Keep us.

• Need of restoration of Windows Vista on Dell laptop

  Hello.

  * original title - restore Windows Vista - I have no installation CD. The installatsion CD only I have is a cd of reinstallation of microsoft windows XP Home Edition SP2.*

  Recently, I experienced some problems with Windows Defender.  I tried to do a system restore, but I couldn't go back enough before to the problem.  They then advised me through reading the forums and questioning serveral here my other option was to do a re-installation of complete system for Windows Vista.  I have no problem with that, I don't have a CD for it and no one I know is.  My laptop is a Dell and it received through College I was dating after graduation.   Probably a year ago my hard drive failed.  I had the hard drive replaced and the program that was then installed on my computer Windows Vista (32 bit), which worked well and has been great so far.  The Dell initially had Windows XP home edition SP2 it is and reinstall drive only I.  The disc indicates specifically that it is not for resettlement programs or drivers... If I now can I go back to Windows SP2? I don't know how it works, or what he would do.  Can you please suggest some options? or advice?...

  We do not know what disk/license of Vista was used to install Vista on your computer.

  Normally, ylou would install XP > then go to Vista.

  Read this info on reinstalls Vista and sorting here:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Im trying to reinstall windows 7 but my laptop used regognise it

  Hi I hope someone can help me, my lappy wont recognize the disk im (genuine) windows tries to use, disk is fine coz its been tried on other lappys and my fine coz of disk drives, he plays a different cd/dvd ive tried

  Beverley

  You may not use any dvd of Windows 7 to reinstall windows, unless it's a commercial version. Normally retail drives are limited to a single computer, so you need to uninstall your version of windows installed on the previous computer. You will need to change the order of the Boot sequence in the BIOS to boot from a Windows 7 disc, and that's probably why your attempts have failed.

  Reinstall windows using the diskette is not the way to solve your problems. Your laptop have will come with a pre-installed Windows version. What is this version of Windows and what is your mobile brand and model?

  Type system information in the search box above the Start button and press ENTER. Select file, Export and give the file a name noting where it is located. Please download your disk from sky to share and post a link here.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point.

• Update the bios of the DELL laptop under ubuntu

  Hi all.

  I have a dell inspiron N411Z (or N14z).

  I installed portable ubuntu 12.04 as a single operating system on the computer. Current kernel is 3.2.0 - 30, gnome 3.4.2.

  Are the details of my BIOS: A02 19/10/2011

  I opened a session in the DELL support web page, and after giving my serial number, I was redirected to the following web page: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/gr/en/grdhs1/ServiceTag/ maintain the label removed by privacy policy >

  As you will see, there is a new update for my BIOS, namely A05 19/04/2012, however is a ".exe" file and therefore cannot be used with Microsoft windows operating systems.

  I'd appreciate very much if you will guide me in the process step by step how to upgrade the BIOS of my laptop said, because the operating system is linux - ubuntu 12.04.

  For your info, my laptop is certified ubuntu: http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201106-8252/

  Thank you.

  As I opened this thread, I'll you know how I managed to update my BIOS.

  First of all, I think that since the update of the BIOS is a very sensitive issue (taking in mind that if something is wrong you can brick your laptop), the best way to do this is to follow the manufacturer's instructions exactly. Since there is no official record for the use of linux, it is advisable to use the .exe for windows file.

  So, I managed to find a way to actually update my BIOS through windows without installing windows.

  What you need:

  (1) a 32 bit windows7 installation. On another PC or even install via Virtual Box. (In fact, I installed win7 via the virtual machine. I found the iso of win7 from google. I don't have not had to save windows as they give you a period of 30 days of grace and we have actually windows for 5 minutes).

  (2) a USB stick with at least 1 GB of space

  (3) the right bios.exe file that we get from the manufacturer's web page.

  (4) a specific dll file. In my case it was oledlg.dll.

  (5) a blank CD.

  Step 1.

  We start windows and create us a rescue disk from windows7.

  Step 2.

  Format us the USB drive in FAT32.  We copy and paste all the files within the USB rescue disk.

  Let's open up command prompt and we follow the following sequence of commands to make the USB bootable:

  DiskPart (it turns at the diskpart prompt)

  listdisk (he will give the list of available disks)

  Select disk 2 (you select the USB stick drive. In my case it was the No2. Be very careful during this step).

  list partition (it lists the partitions on the usb key. It will be only 1 since we have just formatted it).

  Select partition 1 (we choose the partition)

  Active (make us active or bootable)

  Step 3

  We open the USB and we create a file called BIOS. Inside this file, we put the bios.exe that we need, as well as the dll we need. In my case it was oledlg.dll. I found it here: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?oledlg

  Step 4

  We start the PC from the USB port. In case your PC doesn't have an option to boot from USB do via Plop Boot Manager CD.

  Windows will start loading, you choose the language and you will get a window titled "system recovery options". Choose the first option «use of tools of recovery...» "and click Next.

  On the new window that opens, choose the last option named "command prompt". The command prompt opens. Type the following commands pressing on enter after each one:

  c: (it replaces the C, i.e. the drive usbstick letter guest).

  BIOS CD (it changes in the BIOS file, we have created)

  BIOS.exe (he runs the bios.exe file we downloaded from the manufacturer's website to update our BIOS).

  I hope that the BIOS window will open and you just follow the options to update your Bios. In my case I had to restart twice. In this case must boot from USB as well the second time.

  That's how I updated my BIOS of N14Z of Dell from A02 to A06.

  Notes:

  -It is without saying that I take any responsibility in case something goes wrong with your laptop. I said just above how I did it in my laptop

  -In case you have a friend who uses windows you can kindly ask him to use his computer for 5 minutes to create the rescue disk and the updated use the stick (without having to install windows on VB). I just had to mention the VB option to tell you how to do 100% on your own.

  -Regarding the dll file: when I was experimenting with all the above, the first time that I actually run the bios.exe file in the command prompt I got an error message that the oledlg.dll is missing. So I found it via google, added even within the BIOS file and then the bios.exe work fine. In your case, it can ask another dll or dll. Act accordingly.

• Problem with my adapter connected to the computer laptop, perfect if not connected

  Hi, its my first post here, had my laptop for about 2 weeks

  Whenever I connect my laptop to the power adapter AC that my screen begins to glitch, I see the blurred lines, looks all screwed upward and also it freezes and goes to normal and I see a pop up saying "AMD graphics temporaily works do not" and he would do this constantly. So it works perfectly without any problem screen, I have to unplug the unit at all times. This has been a problem since day 1. I think it is the power adapter. I don't see anywhere of people having this problem

  I just put it in a resolution of 1360 x 768 and his fine work with the AC adapter plugged in, weird freaking

• Lost the dongle to my optical mouse Dell R 201 WW, you want to configure the Dell laptop to communicate with the Bluetooth mouse.

  Original title: Dell optical mouse

  question: I lost my optical mouse Dell R 201 WW dongle.  Is it possible to set up my Dell laptop, Core i5 M (450) to connect with the mouse via BlueTooth?  Or do I have to buy a new dongle?  Thanks for any help.

  The WM311 is a mouse RF 2.4 GHz not bluetooth so unable to connect without a dongle (support with the right model). Most bluetooth devices have the logo of the 'B' double triangle on the label

  It is also likely that you will be able to re-pair to another dongle, they are coded to avoid 2 mouse interfere with each other.
