Windows 7 has been downgraded to XP. How can I go back to windows 7 Pro?
Computer was purchased from Dell with Windows 7 Pro, but downgraded to XP. Thus, Windows 7 Pro is on the machine. How can I get that back to Windows 7? From now you when you turn on the power, it just goes straight to XP mode.
Would appreciate a response, so I can install Office 2010.
Thank you
Dale

There is no such thing as a downgrade to Windows XP. You had to make a
new installation of Windows XP. Exactly how did you do?

"So?" Why you say that it is on the machine? How do you know? Or what makes
Do you not? It probably isn't.

You do not have to be equipped with Windows 7 to install Microsoft Office
2010. as long as you have Windows XP SP3, it can run 32-bit Office
2010.

Re: update Adobe Elements and drive
I unchecked the box that allows the installation of Google Chrome and Google toolbar as well as the update. Just as I clicked 'install', I noticed that the box of Google Chrome has been verified again. I haven't checked the Google Chrome box. How can I prevent the installation of Google Chrome when I authorize the installation of the update? (assuming that some of all of Google Chrome was downloaded before I closed the browser?)
Use the http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ offline installation program - it is not supplied with any software 3 rd-party.

Hey gerritfrompretoria,
If you are not prompted to use the new password to your Wi - Fi network when trying to connect, you may have to remove the network on your system. This can be done by the following steps.
- Open system preferences in the Apple menu
- Choose the network
- Select a Wi - Fi connection on the left
- Click Advanced... in the bottom right
- Choose your network from the list of preferred networks
- Click on the '-' at the bottom of the list
- Click OK
- Click on apply
Once removed try to connect to your Wi - Fi network normally and you will be prompted for the password.
Sincerely
