Regarding the CD key

Hey guys I have a genuine cd key of windows 7 Edition home premium, but the thing is I lost the original dvd of windows now my question is that if I download and install windows 7 Edition home premium and using the cd key that I've already so will he behave or work as a true one or do I have to buy another copy and it will contain all the features that are present in the original...

For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  • Regarding the encryption keys

    Hello

    I'd generated encryption keys to ID of Proxy running Maxl operation and also corresponding SQL ID and keys on password which uses to get inside the SQL data source, which is part of the Maxl script. Now, when I use a new key for the Proxy ID ID SQL fails to connect. How these two devices is connected? Here, I'm a bit confused.

    Any comments?

    Thank you!

    Yes, that's what I was getting in my post above.

    Looks like you have encrypted the Essbase and SQL credentials with key public different .  Given that you can send a private key for MaxL when you run an encrypted script (and you must use the public key / private in a pair), it does not work.

    You do this because your Essbase password changed?  If so (and assuming you know the Essbase password so the SQL password) I would just create a new key pair, creating an unencrypted version of the script and then to encrypt the script by using the normal procedure in the Tech Ref.

    Incidentally (and not directed against you, 955124), identification information encrypted in MaxL are a confusing feature for me.  Without doubt, we are concerned about people with read access to writing, see the password.  But anyone with read access to Scripture who knows the private key can copy the statement login and create their own malicious script.  If the answer is "but they do not know the private key", then why can't we just set up the script and hide the password of any medium is acceptable to secure the private key?  Someone please tell me if I'm missing the point...

  • regarding the key primaries composit

    Hello

    My parent table with composit primary key on two columns.

    I need to use these two foreign key columns in the child table.

    After you create the parent table, I am facing problem to create the child table, it still shows no unique primary key found

    is it possible to do like this?


    Kind regards
    SH

    While composite primary keys are legal in data modeling, a lot of people don't like them when it comes to practice. This is partly because they take more space and require more typing (additional join clauses) and partly because of a suspicion that composite keys are more likely to evolve and therefore more troubled over the lifetime of the database.

    It is common to treat the composite key as if it were a key to the business: ensure uniqueness with a unique constraint, but to define a (synthetic) surrogate primary key that uses a single column for foreign keys.

  • Questions regarding the installation of key code

    I was helping a friend with his computer. She bought a computer to measure with Widows XP installed on it, a store of the local computer, about three months ago. She got big virus on his computer. If she needs to format and reinstall Windows XP.
    She did not have a sticker with a code on his computer from the store of the local computer. She won't pay hundreds of dollars just to get xp installed.

    Question #1: Must the machine store provide stickers key code when window selling?

    Question # 2, she had the sticker with a code, it could install it with a normal drive in Widows XP Home Edition using his key code?

  • HP Envy 17: Reverse the function keys

    Hey guys,.

    My laptop is a very good laptop, with a good graphics card nvidia an i7 cpu and even 16 GB of ram. Even with a 17 inch screen full HD 1920 * 1080, making incredible games! Even GTA V for Pc works quite well on this laptop powerful.

    All of these things are an amazing gaming PC, however, it has a match no one back which makes it almost impossible to play a game with good fluidity.

    Present a defect of fatal game is actually the keyboard, but to be more precise, it is the function keys. The HP Envy 17 has two F1 - F12 and INSERT key. However, these are the secondary keys. Primary keys are keys system that changes the brightness or volume. That means if I want to use F2 in a game, I have to hold the function key, and then press F2.

    This seems minor, but when you play, it can be annoying to have to hold down a function key just to use one of the F keys.

    Dies, does anyone know how to get this fixed and reverse the trend, in this way if I want to cut my cell phone that I have to press the function, then the F6 key. I hope that people know what I mean and please if you know of a fix would be great if you could post it below.

    Thank you
    Connor Burnett.

    Hello

    Yes, I used the F1 - F12 keys on a daily basis for the last 35 years or so, but fortunately I always use external keyboards using laptops (on or off a docking station). You may not share, but disable. Please use the following article:

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Download Realtek HD Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74501-75000/sp74867.exe

    When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R

    In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

    In Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the Realtek device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When you are finished, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72001-72500/sp72105.exe

    When the reinstallation of Chipset is finished, stop the laptop.

    Disconnect the power adapter and then hold button power supply for 30 seconds, then release.

    Plug the power adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right click on the installer of Realtek and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, reboot the laptop and let windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

  • Toshiba key feature Suggestion - option to reverse the effect of the FN key

    If there is an option to reverse the effect of FN + Fx, for example, if this option is enable pressing the F7 will increase the light and won't F7 effect, and so on for all other keys.

    If he can make more than 1 option in this idea, for example reverse only the buttons Fx
    Invert TAB button to eject the DVD-RAM
    reverse number 3 + 4 button for the volume
    .. .etc

    * edit: *.
    It would be better if there are options to reverse the FN buttons all one by one so that you can customize your keyboard you want :) *.

    I would like if someone can pass this idea to the developers of Toshiba

    Kind regards

    > It would be better if there are options to reverse the FN buttons all one by one so that you can customize your keyboard that you want to

    Well, to be honest I have not missed this option and the possibility to change the function keys in the past.
    But of course this is only my personal opinion.

    However, let's see what are the additional features will run in the new version of the key of service Toshiba utility.

  • Satellite M40X-286: energy saving and the E - key utility does not work on Vista

    First of all, sorry for my bad English.

    I managed to install Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit on my Satellite M40X-286. Everything works, except for the energy saving and the E - key utility. I tried the added value of packages of other TOSHIBA models, but they all give an error message during the installation. Is there a solution for this problem?

    Now I can't change the speed of the processor and the brightness of my screen, and I can't even adjust these settings in a power mode. The only way to change the brightness is manually using the FN + F6 and F7 keys.

    Kind regards
    Stijn.

    Please don t be crazy about me, but there is no problem at all. The situation is quite clear.

    First: tools and utilities are similar, but in most cases have to be adapted for each laptop model. It may happen that some tools work on the different model of laptop, but this does not mean that he has to work on each model.

    Second important fact is that Toshiba does not Satellite M40X support for Vista operating system and I guess you won't be able to use this tool. In my opinion, it is not so important, because all the energy-saving settings you can find in Vista power options.

    For utility E - key, I don't see a solution. If you use OS not supported, you must live with it.

    It sounds as if your CMOS chip has a problem, maybe the CMOS battery has failed and the BIOS settings are lost.

    Hello

    As far as I know it of not possible to disable the keyboard. With the FN + F9 key combination, you can disable only features of Notepad, but not the keyboard. You can try to connect the external keyboard. If the same problem still images, then you should get you BONES with the recovery CD.
