Microsoft has stopped the sale of Windows XP as well by Manufactures and OEM versions, found on most websites. You might want to try Amazon and sites like it, but I warn you that the cost has skyrocketed over the past two weeks.
Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

Where is Snipping Tool? If deleted accidentally, how can I get a copy for Windows Vista?
Hello Bob w. NY
Click on the Start button and type capture in the search box menu star. The cutting tool application should appear at the top of the search results.
As the cutting tool is an integral part of Windows, you might have to reinstall windows to return to the tool. Assuming, of course, you had accidentally deleted.

Original title: media library
I have a HP M7330 Media Center with a dead MB machine. Changed the MB & learned, too late, "Mo tattoo" as fact by HP & cannot use the recovery partition to reinstall. I'm looking for a way to get a copy of Windows Media Center 2005 french as I have a valid license key for a version of XP MC, this license does not work with my XP Pro drive & my better half - would like to get this machine in order for the moment.
Thanks for any help before the machine answers my sledgehammer.
Luke
Hello
Windows XP Media Center is available for OEM only and if you don't have a motherboard the OEM valid, it will not activate.
The only option would be to get a newer version of Windows if your system supports or get an OEM motherboard (HP) that you can use the recovery on.
You can see this article if you want to upgrade to Windows 7.

Why do I get "this copy of Windows is not genuine. Build 7601, Windows 7 "? Windows was preinstalled on my computer when I bought 7 years ago. This message just started yesterday.
The label on the bottom of my laptop is worn and unreadable. I prepare some restore disks when I bought it all first.
Also, is it safe to use with this message? I am more sensitive to the virus and malware?
When I ran the MGADia.exe, I received the following:

Where I could get a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate? in 2014, to the United Kingdom?
Hello, I'm building a PC and I need in an operating system, I hate the Windwos 8 or 8.1 because it tries to be more than a Tablet, but I want to get a copy of legitiment disk copy Ultimate de Windows 7 (64 bit) within the United Kingdom and must be less than 200 pounds, I'll look at the main electronic in my area retailers , but most of them sells more, Windows 7 and I looked online, but I fear that they could be counterfeit version fo Windows 7 Ultimate, so I like some suggestion on where I could purchase this product and has TO BE LEGIT, UNDER 200 POUNDS, WINDOWS 7 ultimate (64 bit).
Thank you!
Windows 8.1 is ok in desktop mode, is much easier to buy and is more likely to be within your budget...
If you don't like the default Start Menu or applications, use an alternative start menu...
Free...
http://classicshell.sourceforge.NET/
In $ 5, but it's like Windows 7...
http://www.stardock.com/products/Start8/
Note that the alternatives don't convert STEP of Windows 8 for Windows 7. They give you just a more recognizable work environment.
In order to avoid completely the front end of the subway, you must install Windows Live Essentials 2012 for client library and email or whatever your preferences. You will also need to install Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader (my preference) to support the reading of PDF files.

Where can I get a copy of Windows 7 Pro OEM x64bit .iso?
Hello world
I had some problems with my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad - still under warranty) and decided to format the hard drive and reinstall the OS.
Since I bought it with the operating system referred to above, I have the license for the OEM version.
About a month a go, I found this thread , followed the instructions and everything worked well until now.
Now (about a month after that everything is fine) I get this message that my copy is not genuine.
I tried to give the keys of my license and I get this error message: 0xc004f063:
"The software licensing service reported that the computer BIOS is missing a required license.
I read somewhere that the apparent reason for this is that I have probably installed a commercial version rather than the OEM version.
So where can I get a copy of the OEM version for win7 Prox64?
I could address the support of Lenovo but the they charge a lot of money to spare, even if the machine is still under warranty.
An ISO OEM would not make a difference, detail of the installed support can be used with OEM key as long as it's the same edition.
Try the following and then try the activation of the phone;
Click Start

all of a sudden I'm getting "this copy of Windows is not genuine" had this copy of Vista for years
I did no change that I know, I didn't run Windows updates, but all of a sudden, I get the black background on the desktop. I tried a system restore, but he said "he has failed." I keep getting guests to activate my copy of Windows. My PC is 6 years old, so I have no idea how to activate it. What can I do? I have Norton Antivirus, made available by the service provider Comcast.
Any suggestionsYour installation is a forgery - the installed key is a Hewlett-Packard computer, while yours is a motherboard ASUS retail.
The motherboard does not the SLIC table in BIOS to activate a key of ASUS.
Where she acquired this machine?
Is there a COA sticker on the case? -If Yes, for which version and edition of Windows is valid? If this isn't the case, you have the package licnese Windows of retail, including disks and the case and the key?

Hi NickieA,
It seems that your Windows XP is preinstalled on your computer. If this is the case, you should be able to return to the manufacturer of the computer for request restore media/install disk. They may charge you a fee according to the manufacturer.
I hope this helps!
