• I could not fix Windows XP Home service pack 2 upgrade. The system indicates that it cannot find a previous version of Windows installed .__I lost the previous version disk.

  Hi, I'm in big trouble.

  I just try to repair my Windows XP service pack 2/3 upgrade.

  The system asked me to save the copy, but after trying to save the computer freezes.

  I try several time to reinstall and now the system asked me to reinstall the software, I need to reinstall the earlier version of Windows that has been '2000', but unfortunately I throw away a few months ago.

  I bought a new hard drive were I have installed a new version of XP 64-bit.

  Is it possible to transfer all my documents, files, settings, etc in the new hard drive?

  All advice avaiable?

  Thanks in advance.

  CICO.

  Disconect your drive, insert your disk again as master, install Windows XP on the new drive. Once msupdate was executed and the manufacturers drivers have been installed and the sys works ok.

  Stop, connect the old drive as slave, restart

  Transfer data as needed. You may need to "take possession of records" - see victory help (donot attempt the transfer settings)

• I try to install OBIEE 11 g 11.1.1.7.0, but it does not find the Webogic server already installed on the computer.

  Hello

  I have installed:

  I try to install OBIEE (Oracle Business Intelligence, c. 11.1.1.7.0), I unzip these files:

  I run:

  I checked the option "install the software only:

  

  I select the 'Home Oracle Middleware' directory:

  On the next screen does not appear that there is a weblogic Server installed on the machine, but it exists and works on:

  / Home/Oracle/Oracle/middleware/Oracle_Home/wlserver

  

  What can be?

  According to the matrix certification > it seems http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi/bi-11gr1certmatrix-ps6-1928219.xls , OBIEE 11.1.1.7 is not certified with Weblogic 12 c... Take a look at the roadmap "Web and application server interfonctionnements" of the matrix.

  If you want to install the software only, then I think you should use a version of certified weblogic as 10.3.6 and repeat prior steps. The installation wizard should be able to detect your installation of weblogic 10.3.6.

• Problems with error Windows Media Player, that Windows Media Player is not installed on the computer.

  We have a computer that is running Windows 7 and (I think) Windows Media Player 12.  When I start ==> all programs ==> windows media player, the program starts and it seems to work.  It is a work computer, so no video or audio file is saved.

  We have an online seminar that the user wants to participate in, and when we click on the link to get the webinar, an error message appears saying that Windows Media Player is not installed on the computer.

  We use Firefox (version reasonably updated, but do not know which) for internet.

  I used the "fix it" tool on the website of Microsoft, but that does not solve anything.  He said it sets some configuration settings.  I thought that maybe uninstall and reinstall it can work, but I can't understand completely uninstall because it isn't in my list of programs in the control panel.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks for any ideas you may have.

  Nolan

  (Moved to programs)

  Uninstall and reinstall could be done by searching for and opening the option "turn on or off Windows features", but I don't think it will help.

  Instead, what you need is a Windows Media Player plugin for your browser (Firefox).

  But before you spend effort on it, I would test to see if it's really the solution.  Try to join your webinar with Internet Explorer (where the WMP plugin is built).  If it works, you can be reasonably sure to know how to make it work with Firefox.

• How to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7

  Original title: window 7

  Hi can one tell me how to get a product key, that I had a new hard drive installed in the computer shop and it seems that there is no key for windows 7, I just brought Office 2016 and he did not finish the load down with the windows key 7.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  Full version (retail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  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

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

• Printer installation tries to install e-printer on a netbook... don't get a message on the spooler service. What is the spooler service?

  Try to install e-printer on a netbook... don't get a message on the spooler service.  What is the spooler service?

  Hi Pat,

  Spooler service manages print jobs by saving in a queue and submit them to the printer in order specified instead of sending them directly (which can cause the printer back up if too is sent at a time depending on how printing is setup and the printer works).

  Try the simple fix to see if it works.  Go to start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services and place you on print spooler and double-click it.  Click the Dependencies tab, go to all the services listed there and confirm that they are automatic and started.  If this is not the case, change it to automatic, and then restart them.  Once finished, return to the print spooler and set it to automatic and start it.  Click OK and close out Services and control panel and restart.  When you come back, come back to Services and check that the print spooler again told automatic and started.  If this isn't the case, after back and let's check other things.  If so, proceed to the installation of the printer, and this particular problem should no longer be a problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• update of windows xp on the computer that has never been updated for several years because the owner has never had access to the internet. I can just to SP3? SP2 has been installed ever

  My name is Pedro, help a good friend who has 3 small destop computers running windows XP. There is no internet at all since the installation of several years now. My question is: can I download SP3 and install it on 3 PCs similarly when they never received updates from the dell factory install? Or SP2 is a sine qua non before moving on later? In fact am still dealing with a place without internet access.

  Thank you very much for the help!

  According to the first article below, before you install SP3, you must have either the SP1a or SP2 installed on the computer.  You have not specifically need to have SP2 installed.  For more information, see the following articles:
