Reinstallation of Windows 7 with OEM license with an OEM license and the manufacturer's warranty expired

My hard drive starts to die, if I want to backup all my data and be ready in case it fails. One of the things on my list of verification is to ensure that I can reinstall Windows 7 if need be.

I don't have in my possession a Windows reinstallation disk, so I want to create a USB bootable for windows 7. The link to the .isos DIgital River that I use to create my bootable USB key doesn't work for users with OEM licenses. Very annoying, but I can legally get a Dell reinstall drive instead. But Dell wouldn't send me reinstallation disks because my warranty with Dell expired.

The result of this is that if your a manufacturer guarantee expired, you can no longer reinstall windows on the same computer!

Dell says it is responsible for providing the relevant recovery media, including Windows used to do with the Digital River .isos, but who no longer work for people with Microsoft's Windows 7 OEM license. Microsoft says that it is the responsibility of Dell to provide its customers with the recovery media (disks to reinstall windows) in the first place. Personally, I'm not interested in the blame game - I just want to have access to a recovery media so I have the option of legally re - install windows 7 in the future with my OEM license.

Can you help me with this problem? Thank you.

Downloads Microsoft removing the Digital River and replacing them with a non-functional tool are extremely boring.

If you can still start, update Dell backup and restore to the latest version:

Make a USB (older than 2012 systems) recovery or recovery external hard drive (more recent than 2012 systems):

Boot from it to the new hard drive and use it to reinstall. Recovery media is using earlier versions may not work on the new disks.

    Hello

    Use LEAD and LAG when you know exactly how far is the target line (for example, if you know the desired value is on the next row).
    If you don't know exactly how far is the target line, then FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE are more likely to be useful.

    WITH     got_neighbors     AS
    (
         SELECT     avg_table.*
         ,     LAST_VALUE (value IGNORE NULLS) OVER (ORDER BY beg_mp)          AS prev_value
         ,     LAST_VALUE (value IGNORE NULLS) OVER (ORDER BY beg_mp DESC)     AS next_value
         FROM     avg_table
    )
    SELECT       id, type, num, name, beg_mp, end_mp
    ,       COALESCE ( value
                 , ( NVL (prev_value, next_value)
                   + NVL (next_value, prev_value)
                   ) / 2
                 )     AS value
    FROM       got_neighbors
    ORDER BY  beg_mp to f
    ;
    

    Riedelme is correct: LAG LEAD (as well as FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE) can return only the values that are there (or that you give as default values). This means that you can not solve this problem with these functions alone; you need something else (as NVL, above) to provide value when the function does not find it.

  • Problems with sorting of columns and the number of lines in the report

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with sorting of columns and the number of lines displayed in a report.

    This report displays the data correct, but if I try to sort on a column when I click on the column heading in the report returns no line... I need to click on the "go" button to refresh the report (with the column sorted now) in to display the data.

    Similarly, I display only 15 lines per page. If I try to view the lines 16-30, 31-45, etc., that it returns no line until I click on the 'go' button to refresh again.

    Has anyone else had (and overcome) the same problem?

    Thank you

    Joseph

    Joseph,

    2 questions:

    1) are you using the elements referenced by the report page to filter etc.. ? If so, you're failing values of these when the loading of the page?
    (2) are you using PPR page through the results?

    If so, it could be a problem with the different types of session state, as Anton Nielsen blogged about here:
    http://c2anton.blogspot.com/2008/12/Oracle-Application-Express-Apex-three.html

    If so, you can use calculations or processes to set element values in session state persistent during page rendering, as Anton mentions. In this way, when you use PPR page values will be available in session state and your report should work fine.

    Anthony.
