Using the preloaded operating system of a laptop.
Can I use a preloaded OS (Windows Vista) to my old laptop (not working-HP Pavilion DV5) to a new laptop. But my other laptop Lenovo thinkpad. Although I m an owner legitimate of the (old) laptop so I should have the right to use on a laptop by closing the old laptop.
Hello
No.; You can't use it on another PC.
Preinstalled OEM licenses are much cheaper to buy than the retail licenses and this is one of the reasons why they may not be transferred
If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.
OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.
Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.
And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.
See you soon.

Satellite M100-165 with XP: how to upgrade the BIOS to use the Vista operating system?
Hello
I use my laptop with Windows XP and BIOS version 2.80.
I want to install Windows Vista, but when I download the BIOS of compatible v5.40 Vista it says
"This Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista!
Do NOT install this Bios if you have Windows XP as operating system running! »
When you download the version 2.80 compatible XP, I got the same message saying that it was not compatible with Vista.
Now, should I first install Vista with XP compatible BIOS 2.80 and then install the compatible BIOS 5.40 5.40 or Vista install XP first (no traditional update available, only Windows updates are present) and then install Vista?
I'm afraid of a bad flash by installing the BIOS compatible Vista in XP.
Hello
the best solution would be to do the following:
1. backup your data and download the drivers for Vista.
2. make sure that all stored/saved/etc.
3. install the bios
4 restart the machine and install Vista
5. After installing Vista, install drivers and be happy :)See you soon
P.S.: Would appreciate some comments on your success...

How to use the original sound system in my laptop?
My Toshiba Satellite laptop came loaded with Realtek sound card and speakers. I added something to my computer that has added another audio system. When I looked in 'Device Manager' then sound all I saw was "High definition Audio Device" and did not have a Realtec. HDAC should Realtec as audio device have been replaced. The Realtek High Definition Audio Driver and Realtek USB 2.0 card reader are always listed in "programs and features. How can I make my sound legacy Realtec main?
Theresa
Is it the same in the two sections below? Honestly if your sound does not work, I wouldn't touch it. But otherwise, head to the Toshiba site and re-download the original pilot.

Need help to restore my laptop to the original operating system is
I accidentally installed 3 different operating systems on my laptop on a hard drive external that I had saved them on because we have hacked a year ago on 2 of the 3 calculates so my son saved our systems for us in case it happened again. Now, I have all 3 on my laptop and need to restore my laptop to its original files. I have a mixture of things here on my PC and my husbands xp and my laptop vista. Help. I don't know if the other 2 systems can be saved on my external hard drive or not. I have my product key for 3 computers.
You are welcome.
As you never have a drive to buy, this is how you should be able to reinstall Vista on a Toshiba using the recovery partition:
https://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/bulletinDetail.jsp?soID=2737864&PF=true
You can see if it works but it is probably destroyed by installing these backup Images.
If it is not available, try and get the Toshiba recovery disks or borrow a DVD of Microsoft Vista according to my first answer.
See you soon.

What is the purpose of the sale of operating system preinstalled on laptops?
What is the purpose behind the sale of operating system preinstalled on laptops? You try to save 1 cost of DVDs? I either have to use my recovery DVDs (which is full of junk btw) do more DVD and disk space or try to look for OEM copies or other sources of torrent which contains mostly horses virus/Trojan etc... (given that my laptop have ultimate am I looking for my own language as well) Since your price of the OS is included in the price of laptops, what is the purpose of this Act cheap marketing? Im sure even download it costs you and me in terms of bandwidth internet. I paid for it and I want to do a clean install of it whenever I want.
Original title: A Simple Question
Versions OEM Windows 7 that are pre-installed on new computers laptops or desktop computers is significantly cheaper than commercial versions. Because manufacturers buy Windows licenses in bulk, it offers the flexibility to offer more affordable way for consumer Windows.
Imagine paying $300 to $ 50 on this new PC? In fact, the OEM might pay $50 for the license, but likely to be practiced only $25 for the consumer.

in fact, I want to install windows os (not authentic) because I'm fond of counter strike
so, mac support this game?
or it takes 8 GB ram to play counter strike?
operating system windows (not authentic) will cause no effect on mac?
If I install the windows on mac operating system, I will award 58 GB in the windows operating system and remains to mac, goes no problem in the future, due to the windows operating system?
ALSO POINT OUT THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF INSTALLING WINDOWS ON A MAC.
operating system Windows (not authentic)
This means that you ask for assistance on the use of a pirate copy of Windows?
If you install Windows, you have the advantage of being able to run Windows and the inconvenience of having to deal with all the viruses and stuff for which Windows systems are prone.
Why not just buy the Mac version? It seems relatively inexpensive: http://store.steampowered.com/app/730/

Info on the device
T-Mobile 9700
V5.0.0.586
So as others waited until what tmobile had an official release for the new OS, I used before the stock 5.0 OS. I did not read about the new operating system and mines unwisely update. My problem is that the left upper button convience asks for a password when I lock it, from what I read the only way to block it and password prompt on unlock is ALT + ENTER.
I was wondering if someone had resolutions, I love my 9700 and this problem upsets me just, I just don't see me lock the phone with alt + enter. I have even try and downgrade the OS, if someone could tell me how.
Thank you guys.
Everything I read is that blackberry has released the password locking and his return do not, if you open the Desktop Manager and have the phone hung, if you press the button update, in that you having the option it downgrade to the old operating system that you are running, at least I did on mine
