To install XP on Tecra S5 - where to get legal XP activation key

Hello

I have a laptop Tecra S5 with Windows Vista Business installed. I'm a little disappointed with Vista and also many of the applications that I need for my work are not executed.

Now, I want to install Windows XP pro from scratch. The problem is that I can't install an illegal copy of Windows XP pro.

Is there a way to receive a new product number for Windows XP Pro or Toshiba provide me with a recovery CD for Windows XP (with the new serial number included) or there is another way to downgrade the OS (I know that Vista can not be downgraded unless format and install a fresh installation of Windows XP)

Thanks in advance

Nikos

If you want to install and use Windows XP you can buy this OS.
Computers laptop Toshiba come with the Toshiba Recovery CD. On this recovery CD, you can find the Windows operating system (Vista), Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software!
The operating system is always activated and so it is not necessary to insert key in the s series.

As much as I know Toshiba doesn't provide additional keys to activate other Windows operating systems. As I said above to buy a full version of XP, if you want to install on your laptop ;)

    OK, so I found Crucial.co.uk a very useful site to determine what RAM your system can work with. Please can someone clarify for me than if I buy a 256 MB of RAM from them that I will also be able to use 256 MB of RAM already installed. It will be 512 MB of RAM - perfect for me.

    Hello

    The Tecra 9100 can be improved up to 1024 MB.
    Two memory slots are available at the bottom of the unit and therefore, you can use the two modules, i.e. 2 x 256 MB or 2 x 512 MB.

    As said that banks of memory are placed at the bottom of the unit. I think that it s in the middle and the coverage is only fixed with a screw.
    Simply remove this screw and you will be able to open the lid and should see two slots

    A hint; You can find useful information in the user manual. This can be downloaded from the page of Tosh

    Hello

    The size of the HARD drive is ok. BIOS of laptop computers should be able to handle the 40 and 60 GB HDD.
    The laptop supports an Enhanced IDE (ATA-5) interface.

    It seems that the mentioned HARD drive must be compatible

  • Installing WXP on Tecra M9

    I'm trying to downgrade to windows xp on the M9.

    I am invited to install the SCSI/RAID drivers for the hard disk, I do this, use the F6 command and install via a bootable floppy disk.

    Once installed, the Windows XP Home edition Setup program continues, but it fails to find the file that I just installed:

    The files are: iaStor.sys and iaAHCI.inf

    Can anyone help me on the best way to get Windows installed on the Tecra M9?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think you are using the USB floppy drive, do you think? And another question: did you remove the diskette during installation? Maybe this could be the reason.

    By the way: where you have downloaded the RAID drivers? Would be quite interesting.

  • Media Player cannot play, need to video codec not installed. What codec? Where do I get it? How to install it?

    Media Player cannot play, need to video codec not installed.  What codec?  Where do I get it? How to install it?

    Hello
     
     

    The video codec that is required to decode and display the video can not be installed on your computer.

    Today, there are hundreds of audio and video codecs in use. Some were created by Microsoft, but the vast majority of codecs have been created by other companies, organizations or individuals. By default, the Windows operating system and the player includes a number of the most popular codecs, such as MP3, Windows Media Audio and Windows Media Video.
     

    Method 1.
    How to determine what codec is installed and how to install it automatically?
    a. to determine what codec was used with a specific file, play the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties.
    b. on the file tab, look at the sections of video codec and Audio codec.
    Download and install the Codecs by going to the PLAYER tab and check.
    c. connect you to the Internet and Download Codecs automatically.
    For more information about codecs, see the articles below:
    Codecs: Frequently asked questions
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/codecs-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 2.
    If you know the name of the codec or its ID (called a id FourCC for video codecs or a WaveFormat identifier for audio codecs), try the search on the Internet. Often, you can go to the codec manufacturer's Web site to download the latest version of a codec.

  • 11.1.2.1 EMP can be installed on the same server where 9.3.1 is installed?

    11.1.2.1 EMP can be installed on the same server where 9.3.1 is installed?

    You will always use the 9.3.1 existing environment alongside 11.1.2.1? If Yes, according to 11.1.2.1 documentation, if you want to keep your previous version environment, you must install a
    new machine and you need to replicate data. Previous installation may not work if it is installed on the same computer.

    You install and configure the software version 11.1.2.1 in a new location and move applications and data to the new environment of deployment.

    (1) install the EPM system on a new machine or machines. You can reuse the data and the existing database, or replicate the database and data to a new machine.
    If you migrate to a new machine, you must upgrade to a platform of the same type.

    For example, if the previous version was on a Windows machine, you must upgrade to a Windows machine. If the previous version was on a Linux machine, you must upgrade one
    Linux machine.

    (2) install the EPM system on the machine or machines (Oracle recommends that you install in a new installation location). You can reuse the data and the existing database, or replicate the database and data to a new machine.

    What is written on page 174 of the EPM 11.1.2.1 Setup Guide (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_install_11121.pdf)

  • Where can I find my product key of windows 8, which is pre installed in my laptop form manufacturing?

    Please, help me...

    I want to know my product key of windows 8, which is preinstalled on my laptop. Because I just bought a new laptop and windows 8 pre installed on the laptop. I don't have any what CD or DVD box with it, and also I have no sticker stay with her in the box, I just want to know my product key, so whenever I'm in trouble, I can use this product key, so please help me in this.
    Waiting for your response.

    With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.
