What Version of Windows this laptop has been?

I have been asked to take a look at a cell phone friends, a C50D - A - 13 G,

He sees in a store for him have downgraded to Windows 8 for Windows 7 when he bought it. Now that windows 10 came out he wanted to return to windows 8 and get free upgrade to 10. I found it odd that the installed version of Windows 7 was not in him offering the option to upgrade, however, told him to drop and I would like to recover windows 8 the other partition and reinstall that. Unfortunately, the store that it was his understanding, deleted the original scores and it passed.

I downloaded windows 8 and 8.1 on the microsoft site, but this apparently doesn't work with embedded OEM COA, only retail. I thought about just buy a disc oem windows from ebay, but I don't know which version of Windows 8/8.1 came pre-installed with it.

I doubt it would be Pro (I can get an OEM Pro drive for not a lot of money) and assumes that the House of Premium(these OEM Disks are as available as rocking horse sh**), but I was wondering if someone has a version unhindered from the laptop, even they can verify for me please?

I checked the spec of the machine online, but it just says: 8.1 64bits. Not the current version.

Thank you

Lennie

This model of laptop comes with 64 bit ML WIN8.1.

  • When I connect to Windows 7 after that my laptop has been asleep, the Welcome screen will have 10 minutes to go beyond.

    When I connect to Windows 7 after my laptop has been asleep, the Welcome screen will block for always (10 + minutes). It does not every time, but maybe once all 5 or 6 times and it's happened lately. I can just shut the computer off and the newspaper with no problem after starting it upward, but I'm afraid, there may come a time where it does not work.

    I had this problem since I got my computer 2 months ago so I don't think it's related to what I have installed. Has anyone else encountered this problem and has found a way to fix it? Is this a common bug in all of Windows 7?

    original title: Windows 7 stuck on the Welcome screen

    Hello

    Safe mode - repeatedly, press F8 as you bootup. Another method is to start - type in
    Search-> find MSCONFIG in top box - just right-click on it - RUN AS Admin Startup tab
    -check the Safe Boot (network) APPLY / OK. Don't forget to change it if necessary.

    Try a system restore before what happened: (you can run system restore
    in the Windows as well however it sometimes works better in safe mode-

    I'm trying to connect with my XBOX 360, and it said to open Windows Media Center.  I clicked on start, then went to where Windows Media Center has been. I clicked on that and it says "this program has been removed."  Huh!  Is there anyway that I can download the program, or something?  Or is it IN the Windows during the programming?  Info/comments will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

    Brock

    You could try to control Windows Media Center via Control Panel / programs and features / Turn Windows Features on or off / multimedia / Windows Media Center, make sure that it is checked.

    System Restore will not uninstall or reinstall your entire operating system, take your machine over time until the selected restore point (you choose) and load Windows from this date and time.  Programs and updates that have been installed since that date and time are no longer available and need to be reinstalled.  System Restore will also leave you a "Undo" restore point which allows you to return to the present before the start of any restoration.  It also gives you an option to check what effect the return to a previous era will have on your program installed, etc..  It does not affect your personal data, applies only the settings, system files, programs, drivers, and updates.

  • What version of Windows 7 has hand featlure of handwriting recognition Tablet?

    I have a laptop / Tablet Toshiba M700 with Vista Business.  Toshiba support told me that Windwos 7 will support my Tablet/handwriting recognition capabilities but not Windows 8.  What version of Windows 7 is what I need?

    The Tablet features are available in all editions of Windows 7 except the Starter edition.  Given that you cannot upgrade Vista to Starter - as far as I know, you need not worry.  ;-)
     
    Determine what you need by other factors:
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7_editions#Comparison_chart
     
    If you have "Vista Business"--> to make a direct upgrade without loss of settings/software installed (for the most part-in any case to make backups - be smart on this topic) you need to get one of the following editions of Windows 7:
     
    Professional, company, full
     
    ... and since it is unlikely that you will get a copy of 'Business' for your personal system (hypothesis- but you doesn't look like not you upgrading a bunch of them, nor did the expression to make me think, "IT staff"...) you would need one of these two editions:
     
    Professional or ultimate edition
     
    https://www.Google.com/search?q=%22Windows+7+Professional+Edition%22#q=%22Windows+7+Professional+Edition%22&TBM=shop
     
    The first is probably more than enough.  New - Look at the table...
    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7_editions#Comparison_chart
     
    Good luck.  Don't forget to download and have ready all your drivers for hardware devices made for Windows 7 by the manufacturer of your computer (Toshiba) and/or manufacturers of individual components to install after having upgraded.  Non - Microsoft did not or they take over your hardware somehow - they made the operating system, he returned to write drivers that interface with every operating system they wish their device working properly on the manufacturers material and up to the end user to install in a scenario such as the one you are proposing to us business.

  • When you open a PP CC2015 file I get the message "this file has been saved in an earlier version and must be transformed", but it was not

    When you open a version Premiere Pro cc2015 file that I created about 3 to 4 months ago I get one convert a project box pop up with the message "this project has been saved from a previous version of Adobe Premiere Pro and must be converted" select OK to continue and a box from "media location" will blink for about half a second then I get a black screen with only the Adobe menu drop down at the top.  From this point of Premiere Pro jams up, none of the menu items work, I just get a windows error chimb when I try and try to choose something or even try to quit the program.  I have to use Task Manager to close the program.

    The file is without a doubt a CC2015 version, I even reinstalled CC2014 to check that he would not open the file as it was created in a later version.

    I tried to open another file from the same era created about 4 weeks later, I received the same message but it converted and added a "_1" the file name.

    I went back to some of the automatic backup of the original file versions and get the same result.

    Any ideas?

    Hi hkjlgfdhgehkjbrf,

    Welcome to the forums Adobe and sorry for the late reply.

    I had this weird problem before. Ann was pointed in the right direction. Because Premiere Pro does no clicks (as you mentioned above), I suggest you to reset preferences and start over.

    -Rename the folder Premiere Pro Old_Premiere Pro under Documents > Adobe.

    Note: You will lose your customization and modification of keyboard shortcuts.

    Hope that helps!

    Thank you

  • A previous version of Firefox killed Zone Alarm - this problem has been corrected?

    During installation, the previous version of Firefox update, it showed a box on the screen saying that he had found a file mismatch in the ultimate security alarm Zone and has been deleted. Without more explanation - and no way for me to say 'yes' or 'no '. Of course, the ZA Panel showed that I was not protected. Unacceptable. Went to IE, with the MS Firewall and anti virus, crossed my fingers, toes, eyes, etc. and are back online. Finally managed to download Zone Alarm - took a big piece of my Verizon monthly data allowance. Switched to Chrome, it plays well with ZA but I use Firefox instead. So - this fester has been fixed. It is safe to return to Firefox? May 23, 2014

    Firefox does not disable the separate applications such as firewall and antivirus. Yes, we know that Zone Alarm itself is not an add-on for Firefox.

    The message said that the Zone Alarm associated Extension that you had at the time was not compatible with this version of Firefox, you got in time. Separate Zone Alarm should have been still very well.

    It is also not the work of the Firefox browser to be made compatible with the thousand of Extensions out there, but reverse.
