Original title: Windows XP update killed my PC
April 13, 2011, the latest XP update has been installed. Machine will not start now. How should I do?Thank you
Them
From the F8 Advanced Boot Options menu, were you unable to choose:
Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure
Your system sounds like it restarts to determine what he complains and then someone can help you to repair.
This is why there is a disable automatic restart on system failure option...
There is another option in the menu F8 Advance Startup Options:
Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
I do not think that this will help you, but you can at least say you tried it if someone suggests.
MS products generally work as expected, but may not perform as desired or expected. You can push that dog and make good the bark.

I updated to Windows 10 and then back to Windows 7. Now Adobe Reader does not work. He said: I'm missing acroread.msi. I tried to uninstall the program, so I could re - install, but it will not uninstall either lack of acroread.msi. Can anyone help? I tried all the troubleshooting steps that I could find in the forums and online without success.
I managed to fix it. I found the Mr. Fix It tool on the Microsoft Web site and who was running, and it worked. He fixed the corrupted registry file and allowed me to install the player. I had tried it once before, but it has not been successful. This time, it worked.

New iMac / installed Premiere Pro / will not export media and accidents
I have a new end 2013 iMac 27 inches. Yesterday, I installed Premiere Pro. After completing my first project today, I tried to export media and PP said that a serious error has occurred and must stop. Adobe Media Encoder does not - too, it blocks. I uninstalled all creative Applications of cloud I downloaded yesterday, then restarted, and then used the Adobe Creative Cloud tool for Mac, rebooted, then re-installed Premiere Pro. The problem persists. Premiere Pro will not export my video and accidents with reviews of "serious error". Adobe Media Encoder still does not open and crashes every time. It's frustrating. I never had this problem on my MacBook Pro mid-2009. I even opened my MBP to export media from this updated release of Premiere Pro and it worked! So maybe that's the version of the SOUL, the more recent which is NOT installed on my MBP? Perhaps more current is unstable and crashes? I do not know. I would like to export my video and use these applications how they're supposed to run. I worked on this problem all day.

Can anyone shed a light on my dilemma please?
I have a legitimate Windows XP pro (OEM version), purchased copy in good faith of Amazon.co.uk in March 2005. Everything I've done is update the motherboard on several occasions. The drive never left my possession, but which would have been, I activated XP pro 20 times! This time around (Christmas) I've updated the motherboard once more and now I was rejected validation by Microsoft.
Yesterday (December 28), I received a phone call from Microsoft (possibly in India) informing me that they refuse to validate due to the fact that I broke the rules of my license.
I was told that I GOT to upgrade to Windows 7!
Reluctantly, it seems, I have no choice I'm not familiar with any other operating system.
The only problem is now, it seems that I am not authorized to upgrade to Windows 7, I have not an operating system valid in order to allow the upgrade to run?
Is this really the case? I buy the complete package as opposed to the upgrade?
Can anyone help please?
Dave :-(
Probably motherboard changes have invalidated your xp license. An OEM license is not transferable to a new motherboard. (a new motherboard is considered a new computer)
You need a full commercial license in your situation. An upgrade license requires an activated license of qualification. -

This product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8
I bought a new computer dell laptop and you want to install windows 8 again. It came with Windows 8 Core with is the unique language of 64-bit
I downloaded the windows Upgrade Wizard 8.
Then I discovered my product key with keyfinder.
I ran the upgrade wizard then copied the product key and it shows the message - this product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8
I ran windows Update and it allowed me to download the update, which means my Windows 8 is authentic then why I am not able to install windows 8.
I'll be able to install the kernel of windows 8 with Windows 8 iso pro?
Hello
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.Windows 8 that came with your PC is OEM type license and is one you want to install the retail type license. Two licenses have different installation keys, so commercial version will not accept EM key and vice versa.In addition, Windows 8 Pro key is different from Windows 8 "Core" key. You may not use the button either. -
I bought a copy of windows 8 for the upgrade to windows 7 from the Microsoft store. I need to reinstall the hard drive on this machine, but when I download the installer of windows 8 on another machine to try to create a bootable USB I get an error message when I put in the product key (which I paid for) who says: this product key cannot be used to install a copy of windows retail.
How can I get this problem?
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
Ideally, there are two types of product keys: key to retail version key upgrade and full. The key to upgrade is used to upgrade the version of the operating system when you have the lower version of the operating system already installed on the system, for example, if you have already installed Windows 7 system, you can use the upgrade of Windows 8 to upgrade (override) currently installed Windows 7 to Windows 8. This product key cannot be used to download the installer of Windows 8 and create a bootable for installing Windows 8 from scratch.
However, the key of the full version allows to download the installer of Windows 8 and create a Windows 8 boot disk to install a full version of the operating system.
According to your description, you have reinstalled the hard drive on your machine and want to install Windows 8 by creating a bootable. Thus, you will always have the above error message while downloading executable files for Windows 8.
There are two options you can try to install Windows 8 on your system:
- Replace the key with a key to the version upgrade complete on the Microsoft Store and follow the procedure as you said in your post. You will not get the error message given.
- If you have the Windows 7 installation media, you can try to install Windows 7 on the reinstalled hard drive. After activating this operating system, you can try to upgrade to Windows 8 by using the product key that you have already purchased.
Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

Hello
The product key you use to install could be a volume license key, you can contact your network administrator to download the iso from this site http://msdn.microsoft.com/ and install the W8. The W8 will be key during the installation or is installed with the default key that will work for 30 days. If it is installed with a default key, you can change the product key with the suite of measures
-Run as administrator command line
-Enter the following commandslmgr.vbs-ipk TYPE-YOUR-KEY-RIGHT-HERE
-Now go to the properties of your computer and click on activate Windows.She's... You are finished with the activation of new volume Windows8 license.
For more information you can refer to the answer for the next post

Quick question: I need to change the drive to a new drive letter, but XP will not let me because he thinks that the letter is in use, when it is not.
The question for a long time: I've updated two disks in my computer from 1 TB to 2 TB. They were e and K:. The KC: drive is used as a backup of data on E: drive.
I copied all the data on the old drive E: to the new, but when I put the new drive in place of the old, XP wouldn't let me assign the E: drive letter. It is ironic that several times, I see the warning that if you change a drive letter, some programs may not work - so of course that Microsoft is aware of this problem - however, it is annoying when you NEED to change a drive letter to OPERATE programs, but Windows won't let you. Sometimes, trying to protect users from doing stupid things prevents them from making things work...
Anyway, after some research, I discovered that if I put the drive E: OLD and "remove" the drive of her letter, then the letter E: becomes available again. It did not work, and my computer is now partially satisfied with his new E: drive. However, the same trick with the new drive K: does NOT work.
I removed the letter 'k': the old K: drive, but when I install a new one, it won't let me change it. It happens to be stuck at 'l': it's no use to me because backup programs are ready to use the K:\ path.
There is that no "K:" drive in my computer and I deleted the letter k: the old disk. How do I FORCE XP to designate the new drive K: so that my backup program can work again?
Thank you.
Did you try to start your computer in Mode without fail (repeatedly, key to tap the F8 as your computer starts) and then try to re-assignment of drive letters?
I think that some programs on your machine may be playing with your drive letters. Boot safe mode will allow Windows to operate with a minimum of processes that are running and you should be able to change drive letters in these conditions.HTH,

Keypad lock, when you press the keys, you hear a ding (chime) but it will type all the letters. The mouse still works. When you restart it works fine. It must be a sequence of keys... but I have no idea what it could be. Thank you and God bless you
HelloWhen exactly the problem occur?Follow the steps below and check if that helps.Step 1:Test the issue in safe mode and check if the keyboard is blocked.Step 2:If your computer very well in Safe Mode functions, you can put your system to boot and check if any third party or any service application is causing the problem and therefore the computer to freeze.
