  If this is an upgrade version, you must have the qualifying OS installed and enabled before you upgrade and it will work.

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

  If it came preloaded on your computer:

  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

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

• I am trying to reinstall windows XP but when I enter my license key (from the label of origin on my computer) it tells me it is invalid

  I need to reinstall windows XP an accident which can be the result of a virus.  I get the blue death creen when I try to start.  I do not have my original windows disks but borrowed one from a friend.  I am trying to reinstall windows XP but when I enter my license key (from the label of origin on my computer) it tells me it is invalid.  If I don't have my original windows CD how can I get resettled windows?

  The borrowed XP CD is not the correct version of your product key. Since you have a label on the computer, or you have an OEM brand computer (Dell, HP, etc.) or on a generic computer built.

  If you have a branded computer, contact the computer mftr. to get the recovery CD. otherwise you would need a XP install CD that was the same brand (Dell, HP). In these cases, the product key will not be registered during the installation process. The alternative is to use the product key on the COA sticker on the computer with a drive manufacturer OEM generic system. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  I need 2 reinstall windows vista, but have had is no longer my installation cd, cani always reinstall?

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to 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.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Ask them if 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 own way of making 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

  I have Photoshop CS4 and I need to reinstall from CD after a computer crash and reinstall Windows 7 but it will not reinstall.

  This could be to uninstall because it used entirely from the control panel of Windows 7.  Can anyone help?

• Reinstall Windows 8.1 on the W3-810 Iconia

  Hello

  I have some problems with my Acer Iconia W3 running Windows 8.1 retail. A malfunction of many functions of Windows. The Download Center Office gives weird and Windows errors tells me that my Microsoft account must be verified. I want to reinstall Windows 8.1 without the recovery partition, because I think that the Acer crap cause malfunction of the connection and the problems of SkyDrive. I am experienced in computer SCIENCE and I know what I'll do. I've already updated my UEFI version 1.07 (latest).

  I intend to install Windows Enterprise 8.1 with a USB key. But I have never done this on a tablet before. Are there things I should know about? I mean the differences between installation 8.1 of Windows on an ordinary pc and Acer Iconia W3-810?

  Another option is to reinstall Windows 8.1 kernel by using the function "All delete and reinstall Windows" in combination with the original DVD of Windows 8.1 retail x 86. I need the DVD because the function uses the files on the DVD to reinstall Windows 8.1.

  I prefer the Windows Enterprise 8.1 option. Or do I have to use the recovery partition to revert to Windows 8 and upgrade to Windows 8.1?

  Whatever you think I should do? My current installation does not work for me either.

  Managed relocation!

  It was not very difficult. Also, you need a USB mouse but the touchscreen does not work when installing.

  Here are the steps:

  1. create a bootable USB drive that is compatible with the UEFI GPT partition table. You can do this by using the tool Rufus.

  2 turn on the Tablet and when the Acer logo appears, press .

  3. use the mouse to access the start menu tab and adjust the boot sequence by moving the USB drive to the first entry.

  4. save the changes and the Tablet starts from the USB key.

  5. wait a few minutes to complete the USB boot.

  6. install Windows as you do on an ordinary pc. CAUTION: DO NOT DELETE THE PARTITION ON THE SSD! Only, you must format the Windows partition and select this partition to install Windows. DO NOT REMOVE OR EDIT OTHER PARTITIONS! They are necessary for recovery and UEFI support.

  7 activate Windows with your license.

  8 install the drivers to download them from the support site. For the current drivers, click here (February 11, 2014): click on! Unzip the file that is stored in the zip file. Install all the drivers at the same time by running the installation file. Restart the tablet to make the changes take effect. Give the tablet a few minutes to restart.

  9 install updates you that Windows Update offers.

  Fact!

  My tablet now works like a charm! I won 6 GB of free space. I have 16 GB of free space now instead of 10 GB(32 GB version). The Tablet is also much faster and it reacts much more quickly! Bedbugs have also disappeared.

  My problem is solved!

• 7780 all in one print via bluetooth from a PC Windows 7, but not the other

  • Our HP 7780 all in one printer is connected to the network via bluetooth and has an ip address of http://192.168.1.65. A Mac and a Windows 7 desktop computer can print on it. An another Windows 7 laptop USED to be able to print, but no longer can, although it can browse to it and see the ink levels.
  • After restarting, the printer status says ready and a new print job appears in the queue, but after a bit it turns into error and never print.
  • We downloaded the base driver and reinstalled. During the installation of the 7780 was on the list of discovered printers and we chose, but during the installation, we got an error message that it could not find the printer.
  • Later we downloaded and installed the patch titled that product stops printing after network installed on Windows 7 (64 bit), rebooted and still the same error.
  • Help! How to be able to print the new Windows 7 laptop!

  The problem was McAfee firewall. First I disabled it, and print worked. Then I restored the default settings of the firewall and print continued to work.

• What is a quick way to exit Windows 7 without using the mouse?

  On Windows XP, I could type the window then u and U key to exit.

  On Windows 7 I seem to need the mouse to exit, even if I did stop my setting of the default button.

  In addition, Windows 7 wants to drag me through a few caveats that I've closed everything.

  Sometimes, it's just my email that is open or a file folder, then there is no pending work.

  But I want to just close without the quiz on my understanding of the risks of loss of work, etc..

  I know that some applications such as Norton and Windows update can simply kill all ongoing enforcement programs to restart

  during the installation of updates, so the 'risk' is not worth the constant reading.

  Here are the steps to stop Windows 7 without using the mouse:

  Press Windows (Windows key).
  Release it
  Press the right arrow key
  Press ENTER key

  If you don't want warnings to stop, you can create a shortcut on the desktop with the command-line ' shutdown/f' and assign a key combination.

  See the following link for more shutdown command line options:
  http://www.computerperformance.co.UK/Windows7/windows7_shutdown_command.htm

  Once you create the shortcut icon on the desktop, you right-click on the icon, select Properties. In the shortcut tab, you can assign a key under the shortcut key combination to launch this program.
