• MS thinks that my version of Windows 7 is not genuine

  Hello - two questions:

  Question n ° 1

  I use an old computer that came preloaded with Windows (don't remember version).  At one point, I had a problem and by the contract of service, that I bought, a tech person came to do a fresh install of Windows on my computer.  He installed Windows 7 Pro 64 (only gives me a key code) and my problem was solved. Except that, since then, whenever I boot, I get an error message indicating that my version of Windows is not genuine.  I close the window and go on w / my work.

  So far, I want to buy and install Windows 10.

  From my research, MS recommends upgrade Windows 7 to the latest version before you install Windows 10, but of course I can't do that, since MS reads my Windows 7 as not being not not authentic.

  Question n ° 2

  I would buy Windows 10 and be able to install it not only on my 'old' office, but also on many laptops, we have at home.  I know that the office is sold on a 'per computer' basis, but is this also the case with Windows 10?  In other words, if I buy the product (on the media, not through download), I'll be able to do an installation of several computer?  These laptops are now running Windows 7.

  A big thank you to all who can offer help.

  God bless you!

  It's unfortunate, but it seems you missed the bus. Until the end of July 2016 you could buy a copy of Windows 10 to replace the non-genuine version on your desktop. You could have improved your other PCs for free. This offer has now expired, and you need to buy a copy for each PC. Because Windows 7 is fully supported until January 2020, you might consider to leave things as they are. Windows 7 is a very good and stable operating system.

  In the future, make sure you get a valid product key when getting a new product installed. It is not acceptable to tolerate the persistent error messages.

• Annoying message: the battery installed on this computer is not genuine lenovo battery

  Hi all!

  Does anyone know how to pass the message about "battery lenovo not authentic? It will be nice to hide a black with (!) triangle in the status bar as well.

  Thank you.

  If it doesn't have the typical marks of an original, then it is probably a spare battery.   without seeing a picture of your exact battery, it is difficult to say.

  Sanyo does not spare batteries, but a replacement battery could use sanyo cells.   the issue is less with the cells and more with circuit board used since it is what controls the battery itself.   a faulty or badly done battery could cause problems, that's why lenovo recommends against the use of authentic everything except batteries.

  the software Lenovo power manager is responsible for the pop-up message that you see.   your only option to prevent the message would be to uninstall the power manager.   If you do, remember to let the power management driver installed as your system needs this.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  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.

  You can also make 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 way of doing recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, 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
