• When I did this it called my disabled factory or pirated disk. How can I take my PC off the product key and got my other PC for its use?

  I have Windows 7 Professional.  Used it on my PC and then I had to buy a new Dell computer, as my old PC blew the motherboard.  The new Dell came with 8.1 if I want to install 7 on my wife's computer, as it did in Win98.   When I did this it called my disabled factory or pirated disk.   How can I take my PC off the product key and got my other PC for its use?

  If Windows 7 Professional is pre-installed on your Dell computer, it cannot be transferred. If it is a license purchased at a retail store, he transfer rights.

  A computer running Windows 98 is perhaps not powerful enough to run Windows 7.

  * 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x 86) or 64-bit (x 64) processor

  * 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

  * 16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

  * Peripheral figure DirectX 9 with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

  How to transfer a retail license.

  Click Start, type: CMD
  Right-click on CMD
  Click on run as administrator
  At the command prompt, type: slmgr.vbs - upk

  Press enter, this will uninstall the product key of the computer and to the evaluation mode, you are now free to use it on another computer. If you experience problems, try to activate by phone:
  Activate Windows 7 manually:
  1. click on start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4

  2. press enter on your keyboard

  3. Select your country.
  4. Select the telephone activation option and brace yourself for a real person.

• When I click on my desktop shortcut icons in the new firefox 4 I get a dialog box that indicates that windows does not find that the website

  I have improved the previous version of firefox to the new firefox v.4 and now all the shortcut icons I used with the previous version display a pop-up dialog box that says that windows does not find this website, check the spelling - address - etc. But immediately after this window opens the Web site loads. I tried to load the original site, delete the old shortcut and drag the new shortcut to my desktop, but Firefox always gives me the same message.

• the desktop icons do not open by clicking

  recently, I am facing a problem with the icons on the desktop.  . the high hangse of the page upward desktop icons and can not access any program from its shortcut on the desktop. then happensafter I use the computer for an hour or two

  Run a full scan to ensure that your computer is clean.

  Then, a few suggestions...

  1. If you remember one "good date |" when you didn't have this problem, do a system restore.
  Choose this "good date" or before as your restore point.

  Assuming you are using Vista or Windows 7 eith.

  2. make a reconstruction of the icon cache. yours could be damaged.

  If you use Windows 7, use this tutorial...  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/49819-icon-cache-rebuild.html

  If you are using Vista, use this tutorial...  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117229-icon-cache-rebuild.html

• When I go idle pc desktop icons change size

  Thank you

  Hello

  -What do you mean by "all the desktop icons must change size?
  -Did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
   
  Method 1: I suggest to maintain the computer in clean boot mode and check if the problem persists.
  A clean boot to check if startup item or services to third-party application is causing this issue.
  You can read the following article to configure the computer to boot:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: After the troubleshooting steps, see step 7 in binding boot is a way of putting your computer to normal startup mode.
   
  Method 2: I suggest you to make sure that all device drivers (such as display cards, network cards, keyboard, mouse, etc) are more recent and compatible with Windows 7.
  Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly
   
  Method 3: I suggest using Microsoft Safety scanner and check if it helps.

  Microsoft safety scanner

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The Microsoft Safety Scanner is not a replacement for the use of antivirus software that offers continuous protection. For a real-time protection that helps you keep your home or small office PC against viruses, spyware and other malicious software, download Microsoft Security Essentials.

   
  Hope this information helps.

• When I click on "my network icon" nothing happens...

  Hi, my network icon does not work... which means that when I click on it nothing happens... and my control panel freezes... is it possible to fix this? IM using windows 8.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Have you read this information from Microsoft on the repair of errors?

  «Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files»

  http://Support2.Microsoft.com/kb/929833?WA=wsignin1.0#manually repair

  _________________________________________________

  And these eightforums.com tutorials are very detailed for the problems resulting from Scan SFC:

  "How to run the command" SFC/scannow"at the start or in Windows 8 and 8.1" . "

  http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/3047-sfc-scannow-command-run-Windows-8-a.html

  Read it in conjunction with the rest of the information they give link above.

  Note

  If SFC could not fix something, then run the new command to see if it can be able to next time. Sometimes, it can take by running the sfc/scannow command 3 times restart the PC after each time completely fix everything what he is capable of.

  If not, then run the Dism/online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth command to repair damage to the component store,

  Repair-WindowsImage-online - CheckHealth

  Repair-WindowsImage-online - ScanHealth

  Repair-WindowsImage-online - RestoreHealth

  Restart the PC afterwards, and then retry the command sfc/scannow .

  If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

  If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

  If not yet, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the section THREE OPTION to manually replace the files SFC could not fix.

  "How to update windows 8 and 8.1" . "

  Refresh your PC goes like this:

  • The PC starts in Windows RE (Recovery Eenvironment).
  • Windows RE scans the hard drive for your data, settings, and applications and puts them aside (on the same drive).
  • Windows RE installs a new copy of Windows.
  • Windows RE restores the data, settings, and applications, which it set aside in the newly installed copy of Windows.
  • The PC reboots into the newly installed copy of Windows.

  "When you reboot your PC, the drive will be completely reset and all your applications and your files will be removed it." Windows 8 will be reinstalled, and you need to change any settings, and then reinstall all the apps you want to come back after the reset. If you know if all the files you don't want to lose, then you must back up these files before you start resetting.

  See you soon.
