T440s shipping with windows 8.1 yet?
Just said my T440s ordered in November is available... they're still going with Windows 8.0 or Lenovo has caught up?
Thank you
Mike
Hi Mike,.
Welcome to the Community Forums of Lenovo!
Your system should probably be arriving with Windows 8 only. But the upgrade to 8.1 Windows is fairly easy. Check out the link below to understand how to perform an update.
Only the newer models such as ThinkPad Yoga is shipped with Windows 8.1.
I hope this helps!
Best regards
Mithun.

Mail shipped with Windows 8 is rubbish
Why Windows 8 come shipped with this terrible message system? I'm used to access to the POP 3 e-mail, which I use to manage many different elements of communication, and there is no way to do this with this really terrible mail app. I bought a new version of MS Office to work on my new PC 8 to win without realizing that Microsoft was senseless of its customers on the built-in to Windows 8 messaging system, and now I have it, I find that I need to buy another program to provide adequate mail management. Even my mobile' phone has mail pop. What was thinking of Microsoft? I thought that Apple could not this sleight of hand and monterization.
VERY UNHAPPY.A free to consider alternative option is Windows Live Mail Microsoft 2012:

Reinstalling windows 7 after re-start of windows xp
I bought my Asus computer came with windows 7 installed, earlier this year, I encountered a problem with the blue screen to come and I was unable to fix it, when I had my computer repaired they changed the operating system to windows xp, I was wondering if with registration # or whatever is on the side if I could download and reinstall Windows 7
If the product key on the side of your machine is for Windows 7 and where-ever you guessed it "repaired" installed Windows XP - the real question becomes where they got a product key for Windows XP?
You have the installation media for the copy of Windows 7 OEM which is preinstalled on your computer?
If not - you will probably need to contact Asus (this laptop?) over media restore and/or check to see if the "repair" left any which restoration method should have been used intact.

HP Deskjet 3051 a J611: help with Windows 10 drivers? Incompatibility problem?
Hello, I had to get help with a problem with my printer HP Deskjet 3051 a J611.
I was always able to properly scan using my printer until I installed the update for Windows 10.
I use a Sony VAIO computer Fit portable (may 2013 model) originally shipped with Windows installed Pro 8.1.
After I installed Windows 10 and I tried to use my scanner two weeks later (it prints very well), I can't seem to use the same program I was using before 10 Windows to use my scanner. I tried to use printing HP and doctor Scan to fix my problem, and he told me that my printer had an unknown driver error that it could not solve. I also tried to reset my laptop (and power cycling the printer) and to uninstall and reinstall the driver for my printer.
One thing to note: I use my printer using the wireless and wired (via USB), Wi - Fi for the scanner and the printer.
I usually use the printer function when I want things quickly, using an app on my Android phone, or otherwise, using my laptop (wireless, of course). But when it comes to use the scanner, I find it works much more quickly to use it via USB on my laptop via the Wi - Fi.
Thank you for your help (for that).
Sincerely,

NB200 series will be preinstalled with Windows 7?
Hi all
This is my first post here. I would like to know if anyone knows if these netbooks will be shipped with Windows 7 next month? There is no point to buy one now if they will come with Windows 7, in about 30 days.
Thank you
Yes I think they will come soon with Win7. Its probably a stripped down version similar to XP Home.

How to get rid of Windows 8 and replace it with Windows 7
I bought my HP Pavilion laptop G6 in December 2012, when all the they had was Windows 8 machines. So I thought I would give it a try. Well, I have 8 months now and I still hate Windows 8 . I want to replace it with Windows 7, the latest stable known operating system launched by Microsoft. But I heard that recent material doesn't have even a device to support Win7 drivers.
Is there something I can do?
Thank you
-ken
Hi Ken,
There is no reason that you should not be able to install and run Windows 7 on your laptop.
While it is true that HP provide no Windows 7 drivers for machines shipped with Windows 8, you should always be able to find all the relevant Win 7 drivers, you will need.
What is the complete model number and your notebook series g6 Nr? -See here for a guide to the location of such information.

How to install legal win8 to HP?
Hello
If your laptop is originally shipped with Windows 8, the activation key is stored in the Bios Chip and read automatically during installation.
It also works if you create your own OEM Windows 8 install disc - see the 3rd Hüffer on the following link.

Hi, where can I find driver software for my dv9890ed HP Pavillion work with windows 7 and 8 - thanks in advance. I don't have the original driver that ships with windows xp.
Hello
You can download the drivers for windows vista from the link below and even works perfectly for windows 7.
http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&product=3717528
for windows 8, I don't think that you need all the drivers for this PC - once that windows 8 is intalled it works perfectly and pick up all the drivers microsoft driver database.

Problem with Windows 8 for Windows 7 easy transfer
I am working on a dell ships with windows xps machine 8 and belongs to the University. The machine has been used for about a month and the decision was made to use the operating system major University. After you use windows easy transfer to save the contents of this machine on an external hard drive, I changed my OS to windows 7 Enterprise, which takes care of the University. Now I'm trying to transfer the data to the machine and I get the error Windows Easy transfer could not open the file. Windows 7 and 8 are the two 64-bit.
DanThank you, I posted this question in the Microsoft Technet forum. To save time for others with this same problem, I was told "Microsoft Easy transfer is not backward compatible from windows 8 for windows 7. The solution is to transfer files manually before you change the operating systems and in my case for transfer to a window machine 8 and then manually transfer the files on the windows machine 7.
Thanks for you responseDan -

I have a laptop that was originally shipped with Vista Business. He was then recharged to Windows XP. I am trying to reload Windows Vista but I only have a Vista installation disc Home premium and the activation code for Enterprise edition is not be accepted. Is it possible to download the Enterprise edition or get a new activation code?
Contact the computer manufacturer 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 F10 or F11 or Alt + F10, 0 at startup to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
or borrow a microsoft dvd vista
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

Apparently, I have a virus. The episode began with an announcement of repair that kept popping up when I arrived at my first website through google Crome. This is the address "... peep...» "something. He said that I had to call a tech to 844-332-2558 microsoft and they would help me to solve the problem. So I did and discovered that it would cost me money. Now I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I fell for the free 'update' thing to Windows 10. I hated this upgrade, couldn't use it and could not know even where to go to understand. Then, after much hassle and I mean DAYS going from one place to another to return to windows 7, I downloaded the "Magic jellybean" sahow me how to find the "product key" to go back to 7. You see, in 2013 or 2014, that I went to Missouri to help a friend who could undergo surgery. I bought this laptop in a pawn shop (Tiger pawn in Columbia, Missouri). It did not come with an installation cd. I already have t PROVIDED with Windows 7 on the laptop. When I tried to go back to Windows 7 from windows 10, and received the product of the drive key, well, when I entered on the screen provided, he says that the key is incorrect. I went cross-eyed trying to verify the accuracy of what I entered a second time. I called Microsoft who directed me to HP. HP said that this loaptop was conducted in Iran, according to me, he said. In any case, they said they couldn't help. Long story short, I finally was able to restore a setting the date early and returned to 7. BUT, since I get a msg saying that I didn't have a "true copy" of Windows 7. This msg is permanently on my rt, lower corner of the plate. Now I have this error screen and use my lap top. It's the whole story!
Please run the Microsoft Genuine Diagnostics Tool then copy and paste the results into an answer here for further analysis:

Problems with Windows Update and load XP SP3
I had a problem with my system and had to replace my HARD drive and reload XP and all my applications and data. Now, I installed SP2 and try to install SP3. Windows Update does not work (get the 080244019 error code x) and when I try to install the SP3 files from the Microsoft site, it'll run about halfway through and then stop and hang, displaying the message "Finish Installation" with bar at halfway of the progression. I tried the MSRT and FixIt nothing helps. I checked services.msc to see all the required services are enabled or started. I read that some malware will be stop some services without notice.
After a few attempts to load the file SP3 failed, check Add/Remove programs in Control Panel Windows XP Service Pack lists 3 but no file size or to update the date information as with other programs. My browser is IE8 and I was doing some Hot fix for Windows XP downloads, this adventure started about 3 weeks ago, but no other automatic update downloads. I use the following McAfee provided by my ISP for protection AV and firewall with regular full scans. Scan today revealed there is apparently a single trojan file that cannot be deleted, but there were no further details. My system is also fully functional; I seem to get the updates for McAfee and other applications OK but not SP3. I received or otherwise installed following updates or Hot Fix for XP downloads in the past 3 weeks:
KB954550-v5
KB932823-v3
KB915800 v4
KB884020
KB926239
KB2618444 (Windows IE8 security update)
I found an answer on another forum on editing the registry for the "/ Edit EDWARD CSDVersion value ' but have not yet tried waiting for any response to this request. I'd like some useful suggestions. Thank you and happy new year!
Thanks for the quick response. I did some checking on my system, I have XP Home Edition ships with the system bought in July 2007. Add/Remove Programs shows that the aborted install XP SP3 and IE8 installation; I tried to load the SP2 file but it doesn't show here as an addition, so it may have been part of the original XP CD and I just crush. Even for IE7 so I am not able to drop back to all recommend you. I will try your solution later today and post my results. I saved SP2, SP3 and IE8 in my office and a flash player to reload later according to your instructions. Stay tuned.
It would be unusual for a CD of Windows XP (official) to have integrated Internet Explorer 7.
