    If I bought a used computer, no matter who that belonged
    -a friend or not - the first thing I would do with it would be to
    Reinstall the operating system itself. You do not know how the
    computer has been maintained, which has been installed incorrectly.
    What is missing, what viruses and spyware, there may be, etc. I have
    don't want to live with someone of another errors and problems,
    possibility of kiddy p0rn, etc., and I would not recommend that anyone
    otherwise do.

    Your choice of course, but in my opinion, you're playing with fire if you
    do not reinstall Windows properly.

    If you do not have an installation disc, you have probably one
    installation partition. Contact the manufacturer of the computer for
    instructions on the use of it, or buy an installation disc if you do not have
    have the partition.

    And another point: it is never necessary to 'register' of Windows,.
    regardless of the name. Registration gets you right on the list of Microsoft for
    the advertising. No registration, activation, is what is needed, and
    Activation is not made by name.

  • I reformatted my computer and I would like to know how I can register windows xp

    I reformatted my computer and I would like to know how I can register windows xp

    You did not say what service pack you have installed, but I guess not SP3. Try to upgrade to SP3 and then try again.

    If you have Service Pack 1 has already been installed on your computer, you can go ahead and install Service pack 3

    Otherwise, you must download and install Service Pack 2.

    And later, you must install Service pack 3.

    Service pack 1 and service pack 2 Service pack 1 has joined in.

    Here are the links where you can download and install Windows XP SP.

    Service Pack 2: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28

  • How can I register Windows 98 now?

    I need help to register for windows 98. I have recently installed windows 98 on my laptop and I can't update anything with windows update until I have save my copy. When I try to register it tells me that it is possible, brought t the registartion server. Can someone please fix this. I need my laptop hurt!

    I have just confirmed with a new installation of Windows 98, which you just click on the button register later - and then close the Welcome window (uncheck the box at the bottom left), and then open Windows Update.

    It goes immediately to the "upgrade your browser" page, and you can proceed from there.

    The first thing you'll need to do is to find a way to upgrade Internet Explorer to at least 5.5 - probably using an archive of third-party, as I can't find a MS download or well IE 6 for Win9x

  • Issues register Windows 7 - get code 0xc004f061

    I had to install Windows 7 Home Premium on a spare hard drive because my main HDD failed.  Now when I try to register, it gives me the following error message:

    "Code 0xCOO4F061".

    Description: the Service of software license determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations. »

    What can I do?  I've already spent $120 on this to Fry...

    See the link of support for 0xC004F061:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Windows-7-activation-error-0xC004F061

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/930373

    0xc004f061 error message occurs when you try to use a license key to activate a newly installed Windows 7 as an upgrade from your previous operating system version; but you don't have the previous version of Windows on your computer. Microsoft retains an option for current users of Windows XP and Vista or Windows 7, upgrade in the latest version of Windows 7. Installation is easy and the product key is distinguished by a new upward together. However, to use the key, you must keep the earlier version of your operating system and the new facility will be placed on the old version. If you do not follow this, you will get this error massage.

    If you format the hard drive before you install the upgrade version, the product key will not work and will require the previous version of your Windows. In this case, you must reinstall the operating system previous Windows (operating system), and then reinstall the upgraded version of Windows 7, and then use the product key. So the best way to avoid the error message is to install the update on your existing operating system version.

    If you are sure you did everything correctly, but still not the error message, you can check for some errors, before you begin the new installation process. You can take care of the following points before do you:

    Right serial number

    See if you type the right serial number. The product key is a combination of letters and numbers, and there is a good chance that you have made a mistake in her typing. So double-check carefully. Also make sure you get the original number. There will be a sticker as a certificate of authenticity from the original product.

    Serial number for Windows 7

    Make sure that you use the serial number for the correct version of Windows 7. Currently the Windows 7 is available in four versions: Starter, Home Premium, Professional and Ultimate. See if you have used the wrong key for the wrong version.

    Version of license key

    You know if your license key is a full version of Windows 7 or the improved version because they are different for each, and one will not work on another.

    If none of these help, you need to reinstall the OS. Before you begin, make sure you have a valid serial number and a good copy of Windows 7 and the previous version of the Windows operating system. Format a disk on your hard drive and install the older version of Windows, then the upgraded version of Windows 7 and use the valid key. This should solve your problem.

    If you still have the problem, you must contact Microsoft Support Center. For a temporary solution, you can clear the serial number box in the window that asks for the number and continue the installation process. Who will install the operating system on your computer with validation of 30 days. You can use the computer during this time and meanwhile contact Microsoft for a solution.

  • I had the preinstallation of Windows 7 on my computer, I formatted and install 10 Insider Preview Windows. Can I install and re-register Windows 7?

    Original title: registration of Windows 7

    Howdy!

    I was using Genuine Windows 7 Ultimate on my PC then I formatted my system & installed Windows 10 Insider Preview Windows 7 is pre-installed on my laptop & now I have no way to recovery, but, I don't have the product key for Windows 7.

    I just wanted to know can I install Windows 7 & sign him with the product key?

    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:

    Windows registration is optional.  You have no Windows registry to get updates, service packs, etc..  You can skip the registration step when it appears.

    The Windows activation is required.   Since you say that you have activated Windows, you don't have to do anything.

    There is a difference between registration and Activation.

    Activation is required; Registration is not.
