replace the RAM, the need to activate Windows 7 OEM new will affect Media Center DRM?

Title says it all.

In order to avoid BSOD that * could * be linked to the RAM, I replace two DIMMs with a different model.  When I swapped the locations for the original DIMMs, I received a message stating that the material had changed and I had to re-activate Windows.  That's happened.
I am now assuming that completely change the RAM will trigger the message "hardware changes took place.  I use this PC as an HTPC with a Ceton InfiniTV 4 tuner card, and I have a lot of copy - once programs and films recording.  I don't want to lose the ability to play them.
My guess is that the reactivation will not affect the DRM.  It does not seem to have done with the recent reactivation. It's not like it's a new motherboard or system disk, but I would be sure.
Thank you.

(1) change of RAM only is unlikely to trigger an activation request - although if other materials also has changes in the recent past, he can do.

(2) activation and DRM are totally different things, and should not affect the other.

Whenever I try to change the settings for startup from the Control Panel, a pop up tells me that I need to activate Windows Defender and open.  However, most of the security will not allow Windows Defender be turned on and I want to change the startup parameters.  How can I accomplish this?

    Hello

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:

  • I have windows 7 and have lost my media center where I can load the replacement software is there a place to download the windows 7 media center.

    WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD A COPY OF WINDOWS 7 MEDIA CENTER FOR MY OPERATING SYSTEM WINDOWS 7?

    You can't download unless you run Windows 7N.  Media Center is an essential component of all other editions of Windows 7.  But you can unload and then reload.

    Unload 1 Media Center - Panel, programs and features, [left] turn turn Windows features on or off, characteristic of the media, Media Center clear box, Yes, OK, restart the PC.

    2 reload Media Center - Control Panel, programs and features, [left] turn Windows features on or off, multimedia functions, the Media Center of the value checkbox, Yes, OK, restart the PC.

    At the end of this, you will actually have a new installation of Media Center.

  • Need to activate Windows, article 871122

    Original title: article 871122

    Need to activate Windows Zero Configeration

    Yes.

    And unlike many error messages from Windows, this one is actually pretty clear.  This means that if another program - probably the program supplied with the laptop or the adapter without wire - is running and managing the wireless card, then Windows cannot manage the adapter.

    In general, there is an option somewhere in the other program to turn it off and let Windows manage the adapter.  Otherwise, you will need to uninstall the other program.  In addition to the MS KB article, seehttp://www.ezlan.net/wzc.html

    If you specify the brand and model of your wireless adapter (and a laptop, if you are using a laptop computer), then perhaps someone can direct you to instructions for your show.

    Some like to have the manufacturer utility manage the adapter wireless instead of Windows Wireless Auto Configuration, because the utility of the manufacturer often has characteristics that service windows doesn't have.

  • I moved my hard drive to another computer and once connected to windows told me that I need to activate windows?

    Once logged into windows, it tells me that I need to activate windows. I click Yes to activate and it tells me that windows is already activated, click OK and it returns me to my log in page over and over. Why? and what to do about it?

    Because you are allowed to install and activate Windows on ONE computer and product activation has now determined that you try to use the installation on another computer.  If it is a retail version of Windows XP and if you move the installation to new hardware call Microsoft and explain the problem.  If it is an OEM version, like a Dell or HP installation and if you move it to another computer that you are to the top of the Creek with this, you are not allowed to move an installation OEM on another computer, it is linked to the computer on which it was sold with and he will die with this computer.

  • I need to activate windows but I can't read any of my key product until I can do?

    HP

    I have a hp Pavilion dv7 notebook & I need 2 activate windows, but I can't read any of my key product until I can do? someone help me pls thx

    Hello tiffanybarnes,

    If someone says here allows you to use product key Finder programs, do not take into account their information as the product key these programs on your preinstalled operating system find will be the HP one used for several installations of the plant and will be of no use in these circumstances.

    You will need to contact HP and ask for their help.

    Or a way around this is to buy a DVD recovery HP to reinstall the operating system or use the built-in recovery Partition containing an image of your OS and reinstall Windows.

    No method requires a product key from your part.

  • Need to activate windows 7

    HI, recently my computer is slow. So I did a complete clean install of windows 7. Now, I get a message saying that I need to activate windows 7. But when I do, it goes on to say that I have to pay for a new key, but I already paid for it. So why should I? It has been used on this computer, I have the box and the key and cd to prove it is OEM. What can I thank you.

    OT:

    Clean computer

    If your product key is not valid, you have another choice - Factory Restore, assuming that the factory restore partition is still there.  Tell us the make and model of your computer and we can then tell you how to access the factory restore.

    Factory restore does not require a product key or the Windows installation disc.

    Your license key (-RMV82) is not the system of Compaq Dell computers you have.

    In addition, the date of your BIOS (2005) indicates the computer was manufactured long before that Windows 7 is out, so it cannot have a license of Windows 7 OEM.

    The system was changed to allow the illegal permits to run, the line "BIOS valid for OA 2.0: Yes, but no SLIC table" indicates missing the entry in the table to support the function of Ant-piracy.

    You will need to buy a new copy of Windows.

    Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

  • How can I configure xbox 360 on windows XP, all instructions are for Media Center which I did not and asks the key code.

    Windows XP and using the Xbox 360!

    How can I configure xbox 360 on windows XP, all instructions are for Media Center which I did not and asks the key code.  I don't have media player. I received a key to the xbox code, BUT Media Player do not ask for it? My wireless works fine.  XBox works very well. Yes, I know that I should upgrade to Windows 7 but until my budget allows, is what I have.  Thank you.
