Reinstalling windows with another CD

I know that there are some other threads like this and sorry for the manufacture of another.

In any case, the CD - key as my laptop is for Windows XP Home Edition.
If I buy any occasion home edition CD will work with the portable Cd - Key?

Hello

The key which is placed at the bottom of the unit belongs to the Toshiba preinstalled Windows operating system. The preinstalled operating system is an OEM version and usually this key will not correspond with other versions of Windows.

However, if you want you can try to use this key, but in my opinion it will not work.

  • Do I have to disable the Windows key of I intend to reinstall Windows on another hard drive?

    I have a TB HDD which was once my main OS (Windows 7) until the motherboard and the PSU broke. I bought new equipment and could not get my old hard drive as Windows 7 above to start. I would like to get a quick flash of the blue screen of death, and the system was in the same boot loop. My brother-in-law brother let me borrow an another disk drive hard 80gig empty I was able to install the OS on and reconnect my old drive to recover all my pictures, music, videos and documents. Now I want to format my old 1 TB drive and reinstall my OS on that drive. I have to turn off the key? Is there a limit to how many times you can use your key? I could have sworn that Windows XP has been like that?

    It would be similar to Apple's iTunes software, where you can disable the service before you can reinstall.

    If it is a complete retail Windows 7 license and this is the same computer, you can just reinstall and reactivate automatically. If the Activation of the Internet does not work, use the phone activation:

  • Reinstalling windows with no cd

    my system is a few years old. The original installation disc that came with the computer is long gone. I must clear all on the computer and start from scratch. Any suggestion would be immensely appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    read the information on the different ways to reinstall vista

    How to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

    Hello

    You tell us if you have a sale at retail or OEM System Builders license for Windows 7; only that you have your own license.

    It's the General rules on the transfer of Windows licenses

    If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.

    Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

    When you reinstall a retail license, you may need to make a phone Activation.

    If it does require phone activation, do not follow Demand of Auto, but brace yourself for a real person explain as to what has been done for purposes of re-setup

  • HP: unlock OEM windows 7 for use with another computer?

    Hello

    I recently got a HP computer with an OEM windows installation 7. After the machine (fatal hardware failure), I tried to use the windows key to install it on another computer. However, the key is an OEM product and would not activate, so after talking to microsoft they sent me here to ask if the manufacturer could "unlock" the key for use with another computer (that I build from scratch).

    So all this possible? Or do I have to buy a new license?

    Okay, Ive talked to HP and microsoft and it turns out that the key has been blocked (pirates). So much for the purchase of second hand.

  • Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network. How do I remove this error message?

    I just installed a new internet provider and all of my connections are working fine, but I constantly get this "Windows system error: there is an IP address conflict with another system with the network." I have my electrician of the internet modem connected to my office. I have also two wireless devices connected to the appearance of the Modem wireless. I constantly get this error message mentioned above, and I want to get rid of it.

    This means that all that he says.  Your Windows system has an address that already exists on your local network.  Turn your system off and use a working system to locate this address and to which unit he belongs.  In most LANs, the router's DHCP server.  You may be able to ask the router which addresses are used and see what device uses this address, but I suspect not.

    Duplicate addresses can occur when two systems received the same address manually, or when we got an address in the DHCP of the router range. It is unclear when this happened because he is not in control of the address and puts the address duplicate to a second system.  You need to track down, ensuring that all addresses manually asigned are out of the DHCP range, that you book the address of the router, if you want the device to use this address, or configure all devices to request the address of the router using DHCP.
