• After format and install Win XP Home and SP3 why can't open the Microsoft web sites?

  Need help, guys

  I had to replace my HARD drive in my computer. I installed my Windows XP Home SP2 disc. After installation, I used my SP3 upgrade drive and my drive to upgrade to IE8. After you install all my drivers, I tried to get Windows dates and discovered that I could not access the Microsoft web sites. I get Internet Explorer cannot display this page. I tried to find out why this is happening and how to correct the situation, but have not found an answer that works yet. Can someone give me an answer to this question.

  I have another (used) computer that I formatted the HDD installed and on Windows 7 and have had no problems to access the Microsoft web sites on. It uses the same modem cable like the other computer so I guess that everything is ok with my Internet connection. This problem seems to be only with Windows XP Home SP 3.

  Think in advance for any help

  Btk (billy the kid)

  Please do not share in the whole "BOLD". Which makes it hard to read!

  Please check that SP3 is installed:
  Start | Run
  Type:
  winver
  Press OK.
  Also, tell us what you mean by "trying to get Windows dates" since there are two ways to do this!

  Hello everyone.

  I thank in advance for which will help me!

  Hello

  Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

  The COA sticker with the product key is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

  With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

  

  If you have problems with Activation:

  If it does require phone activation, do not follow Demand of Auto, but brace yourself for a real person explain as to what has been done for purposes of re-setup

  "How to activate Windows 7 by phone '

  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/18715-activate-Windows-7-phone.html

  The above method also requires that you go to your computer manufacturer's website > Support and downloads Section > locate your model number and operating system > then download and install the latest drivers for it.

  See you soon.

• Virgins of the Microsoft Web sites

  Hello

  Had a problem with www. Microsoft.com/en-gb/ and other Microsoft Web sites.  The pages would empty.  If I saw the source of the page, it showed what appeared to be good code but it wouldn't display.  Tried it on 3 computers and different browsers and finally discovered our firewall was blocking these 2 sites; optimizely.com & webtrends.com.  Additional troubleshooting led me to below errors in firefox debugging:

• I can't join or create a group of houses in windows 7 it says my pc and laptop cannot create a how I should I followerd all articles I can find on the microsoft kills site

  I can't join or create a group of houses in windows 7 it says my pc and laptop cannot create a how I should I followerd all articles I can find on the microsoft kills site

  Hey borq Queen,.

  Welcome back you hear. If, after completing all the steps below, you are still unable to create or join a homegroup, I think that the issue is to do with IP/V6.

  Check your setting of the adapter for IP/V6. Your network connection must have IPv6 enabled to create or join a homegroup. If it is disabled, follow the steps below to activate it.

  (1) right click on the network icon and select open network and sharing Center.

  (2) in the window that appears, select change the parameters of the map.

  (3) in the network connections window, select the connection to the Local network for the Integrated NIC, and then change the settings for this connection or the file > properties.

  (4) in the connection properties page, check the box for Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6).

  Close all windows and restart your system.

  Try to create a homegroup.

  You should be able to create or join one after the activation of the IP/V6.

  Kind regards

• Is it possible to download an image (.iso) of the operating system from the Microsoft Web site?

  As I've already bought the computer with the operating system installed on it and apparently I have not received any CD of the OS with it. But I have the ID of the product on the computer... is there a way where I could get a copy .iso of my operating system on the Microsoft Web site?

  Thank you!

  On-site upgrades are not well regarded by some contributors of this forum, including me. However if you want to try, I refer you to this link for an iso download...

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-windows_install/where-do-i-download-a-new-Windows7-Home-Premium/39547f65-5a91-4608-A439-c4ccaed1de56

  But before you go this route, I would say as you explore the possibilities to fix the problems you have in other ways. Try to publish or questions about your problem and see what happens. You can save yourself a lot of grief.

• I can reinstall Windows 7 from the Microsoft Web site free of charge, or I have to go buy Windows 7?

  I have a HP laptop about 3 years. I don't have the disks with it to reinstall.  I have trouble starting up. Best Buys geeksquad says to reinstall windows 7.

  If I can get on the internet can I reinstall from the Microsoft Web site free of charge or I have to go buy windows 7.  If I have to buy that I would be better off to buy windows 8?

  Original title: reinstall Windows 7

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft community!

  You can either reinstall the computer, which means it will have ANYTHING to this topic, or you can do a system restore when it was working fine.

• Windows Media Player is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled. You want to install the Player from the Microsoft Web site?

  Running Windows 7 home Premiun 64 x. Click to open the program the message pop up "Windows Media Player is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled. You want to install the Player from the Microsoft Web site? "that it takes to the site and there is no available media player Windows 7, installed WMP 11 does not work either. Tried to turn on and back on... did not work

  Do you remember the last time that your Media Player worked properly?  You can use the system restore (type it in the start menu to find) to go back on this point.  This restoration takes about 2 minutes and will not affect your files - no matter how far you go.  It simply restores your system files and settings.
