The motherboard of my computer died leaving me with a disc containing my pre-installed XP SP3 license (no disk).

How can I authenticate this Setup on my new computer?

The phone authentication MS line keeps hanging up on me while transferring to a service representative.

TIA for any help you can provide.

  • where can I find the info of the motherboard on my computer, I found E93839 LA0531

    I think to try to replace the motherboard and find the numbers on my system, but I believe that there is a 3rd group of numbers somewhere in this topic. Is there a picture or a link where to look for someone can share.

    Thank you in advance.

    Dwight

    Numbers of Dell would be white labels with barcode or QR code starting with CN-XXXXX-XXXXX

    E93839 LA0531 isn't a motherboard number or it's a Dell reference number.  Its a regulatory issue. E210882 is a UL number for example.

    Hello

    To add the good advice of TG, you don't want two of the main antivirus on the computer products
    at the same time much less running. Don't forget to use the removal of the machine tools to prevent
    problem causing leftovers when you want to uninstall/remove an antivirus/security products.

    Here's what I use and recommend:

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
    Operation of the network.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    I hope this helps.

  • Vista SP1 does not update problems and System Restore returns a message "system restore was not entirely successful. File system and the setting of your computer has not changed"with the error code (0x80071AA7)

    0rignal title: Vista SP1 didn't update problem

    So, recently, I was on my computer of gf and noticed she had some updates, it could use his computer which included the SP1 update.  So I went through the process trying to update his computer and he has been a disaster and have had many problems and seems to have tried everything.  It has a Dell inspiron 1525 and has no CD and no key for its program of Vista.  I burned a Vista recovery disk and tried troubleshooting by using that, but have not had much luck.  When I use the Startup Repair tool there is no nothing.  So I tried to use the restore of the system with the Description of "install: Windows Vista Service Pack 1.  He had a restore point saved just before I tried to update to SP1.  Whenever I chose this method, it's but the whole process then in the end it says:

    "System restore was not entirely successful.  File system and the setting of your computer have not changed. "

    then he begins to list the details with the error code (0x80071AA7) and then gives me the option to close or 'Run System Restore"once again that is an endless loop, because I just end up with the same error each time.  If anyone has had this problem and bring myself through it.  I don't want to reinstall windows because it seems simply ridiculous and plus that she a lot of pictures on his computer and I want to get rid of those.

    If you need more information please let me know and evil provides everything I can

    Hello
     
    Follow the steps and check if the problem persists.
     
    Step 1:
     
    I suspect that your security program may be responsible for this. I would suggest you temporarily disable all security software and try the system restore.
     
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
     
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note : Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
     
    Step 2:
     
    As for installing updates is concerned, I you should install them after you put your computer in aclean boot State. There could be a third-party software in conflict with updates. Clean boot helps eliminate these conflicts.
     
    Note: Restart your machine as usual by following step 7.

    Repair Apple Software Update since the programs & features Panel configuration and then try again.

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • What is the cause of the sound after the restart of a computer and pressing SHIFT with any key.

    Whenever I restart my computer, I hear a noise. This happens when I press the SHIFT key with any key. the sound is heard only once. I've not heard this noise before. I use Vista SP2 in HP

    Hi shield - I.

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. what kind of sound you hear when you restart the computer?

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  • Is there an external link to use to restore Windows XP Home to original values? I can only use safe mode at the moment that my computer shuts down automatically (with blue screen)

    Running Windows XP home SP3. eMachines T6528 AMD Athlon 64 3500 + processor, nvidia GeForce 6100 GPU
    I downloaded and executed a double file Finder and SEVERAL files deleted by mistake.

    According to these instructions, you are not supposed to do that! Look at them again. They are on p. 137 (or p. 145). (P. 137, printed on the bottom or the p. 145 of the .pdf file!)

    Remove all the drives and physically disconnect all USB and network connections first!

    Then either start as you normally would (if you can) and select:

    Start | All programs | System recovery | System recovery

    and then click Yes.

    Or if you are unable to start up as usual, you will need to press F11 at the beginning - almost immediately after the ignition of the PC.

  • relocation of the agars recovery on computer laptop girls. Windows Vista Basic. Will not install correctly.

    Had to reinstall Windows Vista Basic on my laptop now girls probably 4 or 5 times over the past year.  A question is we get full and you get to a screen that says not to interrupt and cela will take a few minutes, which, on an attempt, I let it run all night and never went.  Finally, just let it load and put an end to the function and let him simply use the laptop.  Then after a few moments to use his laptop begins to freeze.  So, I have to go and try to reinstall its OS.

    If you restore so frequently, or at all, someone is something fundimentally incorrect and visit places / download infected files.

    Recover PC to factory specifications, winupdate turn off "recommended updates", but allow critical updates. Consult the manufacturer of your laptop and see if there are recommended updates shown there.

  • How can I reinstall windows after replacing the hard drive? Laptop did not come with a disc.

    My internal hard drive went bad in my laptop, easy to replace and relatively inexpensive. However, the laptop came not with the windows disk. So, how can I reinstall windows once I replaced the hard drive?

    Basically, you have two choices. You can communicate with the person who made the computer and see if they can provide either a set of Windows Vista restore disks (I would assume) or an installation for Windows Vista (probably OEM) DVD. If the second choice, determine if you will need to download device drivers or software packages from their web site. OR, you can purchase the operating system of your choice, retail. The wisdom is that, if this is your choice, you see if you will need the device drivers and get those of the web site of the manufacturer.

    Once you have the disks, install in the usual way.

  • A product key on my DVD, about the product on my computer ID?

    I have two laptops, and I installed Win 7 Ultimate on each, in the last years (each of them came up with different versions of Windows pre-installed).

    I have three Win 7 DVDs, each with a product key.   Cleverly, I've lost track now what product key, I used on what laptop.

    I want to uninstall/de-save Win 7 one of the laptops for the laptop of junk.  BUT I need to know what product key will become available.

    Of course, I have the product ID, because it shows on the laptop.

    How can I find out what DVD/product key is uninstalled, one of which we're on which computer?

    Thank you.

    Try Belarc Advisor (free) , you should be able to identify which DVD/product key you used.

  • Activation XP to replace the same brand and the motherboard model

    The PC in question had an OEM of XP without CD installation.  I have a good COA sticker. I've had damage to the motherboard as a result of a power of 250 BestTec supply failure. After a new PSU, I replaced the motherboard with exactly the same brand and model was original.  This was done in good faith, based on KB824125 which States that this should not need a new license.   However, now I can not find a way forward so that Microsoft "reactivate".   How can I get the activation?

    Additional details:

    All the files on the hard drive are OK, including Windows XP. The BIOS works fine.

    When I try to start Windows, he says that activation is required.  Activation of the Internet requires Windows, so that leaves me with activation by telephone.  50-digit ID is reported as invalid, and the automated system hang up.

    KB824125 seems to fix my problem and specifically says: "If the motherboard is replaced due to a fault, the user doesn't have to acquire a new license of operating system of the computer. The replacement of the motherboard must be the same brand and model or [options]. "There is no statement as to how to apply it.

    When I go to eMachines, they indicate very correctly the warranty is over and ask that I go to the web site of the software publisher.

    When I called Microsoft, I am led down an automated tree that ends with the possibility of buying support.

    I fixed the PC, and now my software appears as illegal.  Can someone tell me which way in the maze will solve this problem?

    I'd be happy to send the old motherboard to Microsoft, if that's their problem.
