WANT to office: Question on new HP desktop computers

Hello world. I think to buy a new computer in the near future, if all goes well, to replace my outdated Windows Vista, and I was wondering...

I know this may seem like a stupid question, but as I am not the most tech savvy, I noticed that all new HP desktop computers have disk on the side players. I really wanted to get a computer when I put a CD or DVD in laterally rather than vertically, as you always do on most of the CD or DVD players. I'm worried that my drive could fall and on the floor, if I have to put in on the side.

I was wondering, I would be able to put my turn desire on the side on my desk, or something (or am I supposed to), I wouldn't put my disks in side?

Turning the case on the side, you have two issues with the option - air flow and direction of the HARD drive.

Regarding the first, when you rotate the case and lay on its side, one of two things will be real - the CPU fan will point upward (which is good) or the fan will be pointing down (which is BAD).  You need the fan up to evacuate hot air from the case.  IF it is pointing down, it could not exhause air properly, your CPU is overheating and the PC will fail.

Regarding the second, I know that the modern hard disks will work in virtually any orientation (i.e., vertical or lateral), but I don't know if it is safe to run inverted for long periods of time.  So, again, it is a question of orientation such as if carrying case on the reverse side the HARD drive, I wouldn't.

Regard to drop the CD/DVD drives, they usually something mounted to prevent this.

Good luck

  • Several desktop computers

    Hello

    I use several computers desktop (accessible by the Mission control). I just added a third and my apps are bad! I have a set for Outlook upward and a few other applications, office (Word, etc) applications and my third new office for Adobe CC applications. Everything was fine until I started using the third office. I put the options to keep the apps I would like it - office 1, 2, 3, all desktop computers, this office etc... my problem is that apps in 2 and 3 keep switching places, even if I put exactly where I want that they!

    Sounds trivial I know not, but why OS X gives the option to position them if she's going to ignore it? Y at - it a bug? She is currently set?

    Any help appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Open 'System Preferences' and go to 'Mission Control'. Uncheck the box 'AutoArrange spaces based on a more recent use.

  • addition of CPU/memory for desktop computers in composer linked clone pool

    Hi all

    I want to add more CPU/memory for desktop computers in a pool of composer linked clone but I want to build a pool of test out changes first, while the production area is still in place. Can you screw with virtual material in the main image and then take a snapshot and build the pool of test out of it without him bring the clones in the production pool?

    I think that the process would be as follows...

    1. modify the parameters of material on the main image of Win7

    2. run the main image and let it recognize the CPU and additional memory (probably needs to restart the CPU I think)

    3. close the main image and take a snapshot

    4 create a new pool of test off the coast of this new snapshot

    Thank you!

    Yes it may seem straight, it won't cause any problems. If you want to be very careful with your prod environment, you can just clone the base image and make your tests on it.

  • New HP desktop, Windows8, Ubuntu, UEFI and a desktop computer that is no longer start

    I have a new HP desktop computer purchased just before Christmas, 2012.  Not realizing the problems with Windows8 and UEFI, I tried to load the version 12.1, Ubuntu, and now the Office does not start.

    Here is the chronology of the events:

    1A tried to install Ubuntu linux 12.1 with dual boot NO

    2 once installed Ubuntu, the system would not start and crashes with an error message

    3. accessed in UEFI menu and security disabled for all boot devices

    4 tried to start again, but the only thing on the screen is a picture of Seattle and the system will not meet any keyboard input

    At this point you can power cycle this machine, everything you want, and it puts just a photo of Seattle.  I can't access BIOS UEFI, or anything like that and the machine will not respond to any keyboard input.

    I did some research and it seems that this new version of the UEFI running on this desktop computer will not allow the machine to run anything other than Windows8?

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?  I don't want doesn't matter what Microsoft anything running on this PC, and want to dual-boot.  I have not the recovery disc for this desktop computer.

    I think about how to solve this problem first becomes the machine to respond to keyboard entries, enter the UEFI and re - enable security this could allow me boot Windows8 still?

    Thank you!

    I finally got the machine to respond to the keyboard.  I found the solution on a linux Web site

    1. turn off the machine by pulling the power cord

    2. remove the battery

    3. press and hold the Power Off button for 60 seconds

    4 replace the battery

    5. start and hold down the ESC key

    BTW, I will update this thing with some notes as this can help someone else.

    The machine is a brand new HP P2-1310.  It comes with Windows 8.

    Try to wipe the hard drive and install linux has been in vain due to the new implementation of UEFI.  At best, I could install linux on a new partition, but the machine does never start the linux OS.  It will start only Windows8 successfully.

    As near as I can tell, UEFI will prevent any OS other than Windows8 currently running on this computer.  See linux UEFI as a kind of security attack and simply prevents the machine to use.  The Open Source community works now this last attempt of MS and PC manufacturers to prevent consumers who buy a new PC to install anything other than Windows8.  Run a search on this issue and you can get more information on the latest status.

    My guess is that sometime in 2013 different versions of linux Open Source will receive the digital signature required to interact with UEFI and load their OS on the new PC, or they will develop a workaround solution.  My suggestion for anyone considering buying a new PC that intends to install linux, immediately after that purchase should consider carefully what is not possible.  Right now I still can't do and I'm stuck now with Windows8.  If I had to do it again, I will not buy a new PC, but rather just go online and buy something.  After this experience I discovered used PCs with fast processors and a lot of memory can be purchased for $100 or less (craigs list), and because they are pre-UEFI, they will be easily load linux.

  • reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    We have 4 old desktop computers with windows xp I want to reuse the license of Windows XP from the old office to the new office

    I bought a HP desktop computer and dell preinstalled with Windows XP. The office has not worked for a few years, he has the processor are P4 and slow work.

    I recently bought a desktop computer and wanted to know can I use the same license key to get Windows XP installed on my new desktop computer.

    Note: I have lost my original installation of windows CD but have the office and Windows XP product code is available to me.

    The old HP desktop and dell came with a license with the sticker on the side.

    Any PC which came with a sticker with a key to activate product on it has a license that is related to this PC (and only this PC) for ever. It is not legal to install on a PC using the key videos from another PC.

    If the PC you want to install XP on still has its sticker, then as much as you have a compatible installation XP CD, XP can be re-installed using the key on the sticker.

    Only commercial versions of XP can be moved from one PC to another. With the commercial versions, the activation key came with the media, not on a label stuck on the PC.

  • VMware View - provisioning question of desktop computers

    I'm new to VMware View and just build a my QA cluster environment.  I have installed/configured view administrator on a dedicated virtual machine and installed/configured on my server vCenter composer.  I created a gold statue (called, joined the domain, configured custom parameters, view agent installed) and converted to a model. Then, I created a pool on my server administrator to view and added 10 desktop computers.  They have all implemented successfully, however, they all have the same computer name (same name, I named the machine of the gold statue).  The machines that appear in VMware show the naming convention that I created, but the internal computer name is the same for all. I guess that the DNS name.  also, I can have these machines added to the announcement through this process or do they need to be predefined?

    Customization = None seems to be the reason. When we customize him clone all the related machine settings are kept from the model VM, which are the name of the Machine, machine SID, the work/domain group settings, etc. That's why you see Office all the same names as those given to the model. You can create a customization specification in the CR. Instructions to create a file of customiztion specifications in vCenter can be found at:

    Use this technique of customization when you create the pool. Hope that helps.
