This would be legal
I have a desktop HP Compac 3 year PC I bought at Curry with Windows 7 home premium pre-installed.
I also have an old Dell PC that was running Windows XP. Pro when the HARD drive has failed. I just installed a new HARD drive in this machine. It is 2.6 machine Hyperthreaded core, 2 GB of ram & 160HDD
I would like to buy WINDOWS 7 Pro and install it on the compact HP. using the COA that will of course accompany the purchase of the new operating system
As my win 7 Home premium operating system is a little less than 3 years, I would like to install it on the PC from Dell using the original COA stuck on the side of the compact HP on which it is running.
Each OS is legal and paid. each has its own identifying COA, each will be on PC only. so I don't see why this would not meet the legal requirements of Microsoft.
All opinions welcome please. Thank you
The Windows 7 Home Premium on HP Compaq has no rights of transfer because it is an OEM preload.
The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

Licensing FAQ:
http://www.Microsoft.com/OEM/en/licensing/sblicensing/pages/licensing_faq.aspx
Your best option is to install the Windows 7 Professional on the machine that Windows XP has been installed previously.
If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.
How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:
Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)
Click on drive Options
Select the disc/s click on Delete
Click new
Click on apply
Click OK
Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation
Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.
When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer
Click on properties
Scroll down to the Windows Activation
Click the link x days before activation.
Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.
Enter the product key
Click next
Select the Activation of the phone
Click Next when you enter your key page
Select your country
Click Next, call the number listed
Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.
Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent
They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it
Click next to complete the activation.
However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

Original title: Original Windows XP cd.
I have an original cd of Windows XP Home Edition with the product key for it and want to use it... but when I look at the disk, according to me, he said: "Don't use this CD to reinstall the operating system on Dell count" that I had in 2004 and have more... what I want to know I can install it on a different computer now and it would be legal?
Because Dell SLP, the restriction of similar model is not important. All that matters is the EULA and the fact that the two computers are Dells.

You can try the Center button in the Panel advanced layout. He will wear an object in its parent container instead. You can have this item centred on a breakpoint and aligned to the left or to the right in another.

was afraid that this would happen and he did
so last night I noticed my iphone was not the case around, I was home all day so I wasn't worried, I just got online & open icloud it was great they needed me to update my profile & choose 3 responses to security issues. then you connect again and answer the security question. After that was done I was shown that my iphone was offline & not able to be found. pretty much something that I feared would happen (lack of faith in apple is why).
so I found my phone, it was power & in the laundry room on the counter, 1st thing I did was settings icloud-scroll down to FIND MY IPHONE, and it was infact verified IT. the two options on the next page has been verified also lit in green, find my iphone, & send the last location.
anyone happen to know what the problem is or what was wrong? Why my phone is not found & why it was offline when it wasn't?
Maybe the Wi - Fi in the laundry room was not strong. Find my iPhone needs a solid WiFi or cellular connection is displayed.

This happens rarely and randomly. At first, I thought it was my fault for cats, but it happened recently while I was attending the computer without feline interference. If someone could let me know how, if it is possible to change the configuration of the QWERTY keyboard I'll try this next time that happens to see if it can be corrected without restarting firefox. For a larger sample, I'll include the following lines:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
YD. ' xpr, b urq hgmlo rk.p yd gcjt. NA, eri fIt is make firefox only, no other programs are modified and it affects all the ongoing enforcement proceedings and news of firefox.
See:
- http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/The-Language-bar-overview - The Language bar (overview)
It is possible that you have activated the keyboard by accident.
- Make sure you have the language bar visible on the Windows taskbar.
- You can do this via the context menu of the taskbar: toolbars > language bar.
- Check the language setting (keyboard) keyboard for the application that has focus via the icon in the language bar.
- You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembered by application keyboard layout setting.
- The keys by default to rotate the page layout is a combination (Ctrl + Shift or Alt + Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.
- To avoid an unintended setting assign a specific keystroke (Alt / Ctrl + Shift + number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate (Alt + Shift or Ctr + shift) layouts
- Vista: Control Panel > regional and Language Options > keyboards and languages > change keyboards > advanced key settings > change key sequence

Help a brother here.
We cannot do nothing, once the trial period is clocked on a particular system and the quick time is over, it is not possible to reset it.
However, the only option that would work and it would not be feasible at all, which is the reformatting of the operating system.
Or
As an alternative, if you tried version CC 2015 and happened to expire, you can always try other apps like 2014 CC / CC 2013 versions as a free trial for 30 days.
Note:
Make sure that the Date and time of the system is set properly, once the trial has started and if the system clock is changed, it will affect timed test duration.
Scan a computer for threats once for confirmation.

GNS 3 - Question on the legality
Hello
I want to certify on CCNA. In my country the horribly expensive courses. I also prefer the self-study plan.
I tried to find a cheap alternative to legally get a NetAcad account, nothing helps.
I don't want to illegally download Packet Tracer, because of moral issues.
I did a little research and found GNS3. The only flaw that appears to be missing IOS images to run on simulations, and I need that.
I was wondering is it's possible and LEGAL, tftpd images of real equipment I buy and own and legally run on the GNS3 on simulations.
Is this a viable possibility? I pondered buying a laboratory to perform at home, it's a little more expensive but manegable, still cheaper than prices ($ 2100 - $ 3000)
Thank you all

If the hardware you buy, a corresponding device in GNS3 emulator, then Yes, technically you could pull the image of this unit and pass under GNS3.
This would be legal, however? Probably not.
In fact, from the purely legal point of view, I doubt that Cisco approved anyone external to Cisco, to run their software in GNS3.
For your question, "buy" equipment Cisco, to use an IOS image on it, I doubt even is legal. Mostly because even if you are the owner of the material, you do not have the software. The latter was allowed to run on the equipment that you have purchased. (The concept is similar to buying a book, a music CD or a DVD movie. You bought the media with any license or right to use the content of the media, but you do not own the content of the media).
