Small question about the license of Windows 7.

I've had this operating system Windows 7 Professional for about 3-4 years now. This winter, I'll build my own computer. The drive that is installed on my Windows is near death, I know because from time to time, makes the noise "tweet."  I really love Windows 7, and I would use again for my build. If I had to download an installer to Windows 7 Media to a USB port, could I use my product key to activate it? Or would it be a violation of the license agreement?

It depends on the license you have.  If your Windows 7 came pre-installed (called OEM), it is related to hardware and can not be moved.  If you bought the retail, then you can move

  • Question about the license of Windows Vista

    Hello. I didn't know where I should post this. I have Windows Vista, I purchased an upgrade. My question is, "I am allowed to install the software on a friends computer. Because I don't need the software, can I sell the software. I know that Microsoft has its policies, but I don't know what they are. I don't want to do something that I'm not supposed to do.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You posted in the appropriate Forum.

    Yes, a retail upgrade license can be transferred, as long as it is removed from where it was originally installed.

    One license is for a SINGLE Installation.

    ___________________________________

    These are the General rules for OEM and retail licenses, which can also help you in the future:

    If the machine came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

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

    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.

    Hi , I have a question about the license.

  • A question about the license of Oracle 1 g R2 Enterprise Edition

    Hi all


    I have a question about Oracle license and I would be grateful if you could help me thanks.

    I installed an Oracle (11g R2 Enterprise edition) server on a virtual linux machine. The pc being used for this purpose
    is my cell phone company (so a professional and not a personal computer). However, I use this Oracle Server
    only for the purpose, i.e. learning only to run the examples in my Oracle Press books (SQL, PL/SQL and some)
    administrative tasks) just to learn things.

    There is absolutely no data related to my business, stored or used on this server. Whenever I want to work with my
    data of the company, I use the Oracle server of the company that has the appropriate license of course. So, as I said, I
    Use this server of the company on the virtual machine only to run applications/programs in my Oracle Press books just for
    learning and I'm the only person who uses this server (no remote for other users).

    The reason why I needed to install this server on my PC, is that our DBA could not provide a training environment
    for me, with all the privileges and features.


    Should I buy a license for this Enterprise Server installed on my virtual machine?


    Thanks in advance,
    Dariyoosh

  • A few Questions about the advanced Actions window

    Hello

    I have a few questions about the progress of the Actions (using the version of track CP7)

    1. What is the function of the action to "continue?"   Out of the peak action and advance the playback cursor?

    2. What does mean this comment "Nested calls to action advanced is a nice improvement."? Is the advanced decision at the top of a page of action tabs?

    3. What is the function of the option "custom" in the IF statement - "preform action if - custom", it doesn't seem to do anything for me?

    4. where can I get information about the timeline / playhead interaction with advanced actions, i.e. where the playhead is going again at the beginning of the slide. slide custom question - display button, e.g. verification of responses, comments - when all the objects are at the beginning of the timeline. I'm looking more for the read head of infromation functionality rather than how to implement this type of question.

    Thank you

    Donal.

    Continue: If an advanced standard action is triggered by a button, this will not trigger the playback head. If you want out, you can use continues. Continue can also be a choice in a conditional action, when one orders branching has nothing to special, but in advance. Continuous is also the "dummy" statement/command (this is the official name of a line in the dialog box advanced actions) If a statement has become unusable due to some reasons, it will be replaced by continue

    There is no nested call stocks advanced possible right now, one of my many feature requests. It would be sort of a subroutine that you can use over and over again, instead of having to create each time when necessary.

    A decision is one of the conditions to be an advanced conditional action. They allow to create more complex actions, as a loop or arrays are not possible. All decisions are executed in sequence and always.

    Custom: is a combination of or but it is rather limited, because you cannot use parentheses.

    I guess you'd better visit my blog if you want to learn more about the advanced actions.

    I also did several Webinars on stocks advanced, last this afternoon (on the sharing of the actions) for Adobe. They are all available on request.

  • Question about the installation of Windows repair

    Hello

    I have searched through the forum, but I'm still a bit confused about the use of the recovery expert mode on my Toshiba Recovery CD.
    I can't boot into Windows at all. I didn't save my data (stupid!).
    I currently have a single partition.

    It is possible to create a second partition use the recovery expert mode and re - load Windows to that. Would this format only partition, allowing me to recover files after the first partition?
    Or is this format the entire disk, Windows loading and then create partitions?

    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Fitz.

    Hello Fitz

    Expert mode allows you to do two things:
    1 install OS already persistent partition (if the HARD disk already has two of them)
    2. create own partition (in this case all of the content is deleted)

    Please try to start in safe mode (press F60). If this doesn't help, you can track to save your data:
    1. connect the HARD drive to the other PC as external device (using the box USB HDD)
    the disk HARD should be recognized automatically and you can copy your data to another disk HARD of PC
    2. you can try to use Partition Magic tool. Start by using the external floppy drive and create two partitions. After doing this start your laptop with discus throw and try to copy all the data on the second partition.

    Detailed explanation of the installation in expert mode and how to create a clean partition you will find under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=4462&messageID=14518

  • Cisco ACS 4.2: Question about the license...

    Dear Sir

    When I started this project, we start with the demo available on the Download Center on Cisco.

    We have purchase a license and we expect the CD/DVD with the license.

    But... How can I convert the 'demo' to a licensed version?

    Should I reinstall Cisco ACS?

    How the license is supplied, is a registry key? A small file?...?

    Thanks in advance,

    Make a backup of the current configuration, you want to keep it.

    System configuration > backup ACS > backup now.

    Then when you get the full version, just run the setup and it automatically detects the trial version, and invite you, if you want to keep the configuration or not, checks to keep the configuration and move forward. And you'll have improved trial full version.

    There is not the registry keys concerned.

    Kind regards

  • Part two question about the profile of Windows Speech recognition (WSR) files.

    one) where the profile for Windows Speech recognition (WSR) stored?

    (b) for resettlement took place, I save my entire folder "users". Should I always have to use WSRProfile to back up or will be my WSRProfile safely copied and restored with this action?

    Thank you

    Tank

    I wish I could tell you the exact location where the profile is stored.  I wish I could tell you the exact name of the file is stored as (perhaps something like.) WSRProfile).  It seems that this information is very secretive to say the least.

    If (and I guess they are stored somewhere in your profile) you copy your profile manually or with any Windows Easy Transfer tool. then everything in this profile will be copied across.

    If you use the Windows speech recognition profile tool to import or export profiles of speech then they will do the job by taking the default location for files and placing them in the location by default on the destination computer.

  • Question about the Installation of Windows XP on Portege 3500 home

    I have a second hand Portege 3500 with WXP tablet 2005 Server Pack 2 market version, but without the original disks. However, recently had a virus that did something to Prime the area on the hard disk. I have removed the virus but now get unexpected core dumps memory and system restarts when you try to connect to the internet.

    Question: can I go down a level and safely install ordinary WXP software to work around the problem or the acquisition of new version of WXP Tablet and reinstall the software to circumvent the problem of core dump?

    Installation of an operating system on this laptop, it's the hardest thing I have ever tried to do. Once start you, you will notice that there is no device boot attached to this pc. To install windows, yourself, the only options are to buy the cdrom drive for this laptop toshiba external or install via a network.

    The toshiba cdrom drive is now quite obsolete, more expensive and the external device only that the laptop starts from (I tried with the other external cdroms, DVDs, disks usb keys and hard). It seems extremely difficult to boot from lan unless you already manage it infrastructure of the company. It is possible in theory, but after 3 weeks I still hadn't thought about her.

    My solution at the end of the day was to send it to my local toshiba support center and ask them to re - install for me (he happened to have one in stock toshiba cdrom burners). I got the installation cd, so I guess you will need get these images from toshiba as well (or buy another os).

    Good luck!

  • Question about the installation of Windows 7

    Regarding Windows 7 Home Premium... Say that I buy the commercial version that comes with "the" 32-bit and 64-bit versions. I can install the 32-bit version on my current 32-bit PC and then 'later' to install the 64-bit on a 64-bit newly purchased PC version? I know I have to disable the 32-bit version out of the old PC.

    As long as you remove or disable the 32-bit version, yes you can install 64-bit on your new PC.  Note: A "Full" version does not require that an earlier version of Windows (XP, Vista or Windows 7). If your PC has Windows installed 8 look in "Downgrade rights" before making your purchase.

    Anyway, given that the key was already used once only once, you'll need to enable 64-bit by phone.
