  • Windows 7 is not genuine & error 0xC004F063 code

    Recently the windows phone 7 OS ultimate, said that this copy of windows is not genuine, so I tried to go online to solve.

    When I went to the website they told me to go to (http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate/DownloadValidationSupport.aspx?displaylang=en&Error=52&sGuid=0491ab8d-4e8e-45ce-8fab-f03615d59081&OSV=6.1.7600.2.00010100.0.0.001.00.1033&GenuineInfo=C004F063&ls=3), I downloaded the update and after it finished I clicked "continue" but it kept telling me to wait for it to finish installing, even though it has already finished. So, not help.

    When I tried to enter the activation code provided with the computer, it says that it does not work with my version of Windows 7 (more funny thing is, my computer came with a disk called "Windows 7" professional but after I installed it on my computer, it appears under Windows 7 ULTIMATE).

    When I used a program to find my true activation code, error 0xC004F063 code came. I read somewhere that the difficulty I have downgrade to my previous version of Windows, which is XP, and re-setting level to Windows 7. I tried to do, but I never got past the 2nd step, which tells me to insert the Windows 7 disc in my drive and restart the computer. The Windows Installer never came after the reboot window.

    Can someone tell me please how to fix the error 0xC004F063 code? I think this is the root of all the problems, because I do not think that any product key will work due to this error code. And please don't tell me to contact Microsoft technical support or anything like that because I don't have the time or patience to go through these steps, so please tell me directly how to solve.

    I would try to revive 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.

  • Can we recover Windows with a laptop purchase product key?

    Dear developers,

    My sister's laptop had facial recognition of a Lenovo defined as the unique account password. Setting up the computer for her, the computer took note of my face instead of Siena, and therefore she could not find a way to connect. It was completely locked and I was outside the borders of the country, I could not help.

    She then helped with an illegal copy of Windows, an excerpt from the developers of windows 8, which was very unstable. The laptop has the sticker for the true of the product key Windows 7 but funny thing is, the key is the only bit of impression that faded. (Maybe Microsoft knew what they were doing, cause win 8 laptops do not come with the product key on the label). I can provide all the information on the laptop, same serial number, the only thing I can provide are the product key.

    My reason for writing is to ask if it is possible to recover the Windows 7 installed on his laptop computer by the manufacturer. If so, that the investigation would go to? Microsoft or Lenovo?

    Try to use the key recovery option a Lenovo.

  • Satellite L850 - opens the BIOS on reboot, even if no one press F2

    My laptop opens if restarted BIOS through Windows, even if no one supports on F2, but this only happens when I stop. I recently updated to the latest version of Windows updates. Funny, it's guaranteed expired 2 days ago. I had to manually, press the power button just started my unit.

    The unit is a model of Satellite L850-B150.

    > My laptop opens if restarted BIOS through Windows, even if no one press F2, but this does not occur when I shutdown

    I understand this correctly?
    The laptop and the system works properly. If you click on restart the device stops, then boots to the top and switches in the BIOS.
    Is this correct?

    Hmm its really strange.

    To be honest, I don't think that its a software issue related because no application is able to access the BIOS directly after the POST (power selft test) has been produced.
    This is why I think it could be a motherboard problem material? Keyboard? I m not quite sure

    However, go to BIOS (F2) manually and set it to default settings (F9). Save the changes and restart the device.
    Check if the device would still access the BIOS automatically.

    In which case the matter would be always available, recover laptop using Toshiba recovery media.
    This would create the laptop back to factory settings.

    Finally if this is insufficient, the device must be checked by professional service guys.

  • dedicated graphics card problem

    Hi all!

    I have a HP probook 4530 s and after 2 years of using the dedicated graphics card (ATI Radeon 7470) seems to have a problem. I was playing my game, which is a flash game based on chrome and suddenly the screen frozened. I use by default the ATI graphics card because the system supports switchable graphics. So, after this screen frozen, I turned off my laptop and after I turned once again he doesn't want to go through the screen of windows welcome. I went into safe mode, disabeled ati graphics card and after I restarted again, I could get properly into windows. A funny thing is that after that, I reinstalled windows and the first thing is to install the graphics driver. After clicking on restart my laptop frozened again in the Welcome to windows screen.

    Can anyone help me please with this problem?

    Thank you in advance.

    Try from the BIOS, there is something that you can uncheck it from the BIOS and it will work exclusively on the second card, of the processor.

    The thing is that I found the problem and it is verry annoing. I disassembled my laptop to renew the theat conductor paste and I saw that the old spent was melted by the heat by the graphics card and drained on certain components close to, and I know that this dough is a conductor of electricity now so bye bye dedicated graphics card.

  • Another issue of display language

    I installed Windows 7 Pro to a user here at work. Apparenetly, during the installation, I chose English Zimbabwe as the display language (note that this is not the English language chosen when Windows 7 is still configure itself - Zimbabwe isn't even a choice it.)  The user has not yet noticed the difference of language; However, whenever she printed something the printer asked paper in A4 format.

    I changed the display in American English language and who fixed most of it. However, some Office 2010 documents would always ask for A4 paper.  I found a place in MS Office to change the default size of letter paper.  However, Outlook asked again for A4 paper.  I changed a setting in Outlook for letter emails so now print on letter isize paper.  However, email attachments still require paper in A4 format.  My question is, where are all the places I need to change from A4 to letter?  Is there a registry fix for this?  If I can not understand that I have to re - install Windows.  Not funny.  Or a new profile user would fix the problem?

    Thanks for the reply, Shalini.  This problem has been resolved by reinstalling the printer driver.

    According to the user, it affected all attachments regardless of the type of file.

    This is a HP Color LaserJet CM2320nf MFD.

  • Remote index not used with INSERT in the local table on dblink

    Hi all

    I don't know if anyone has come across this problem before, but for some reason any the remote index remains unused ONLY* in the insertion on the local database operation. Let me explain this pseudo-device code

    insert into LOCAL_TABLE
    Select / * + index_combine (alias_remote_tab IDX_LOG_DATE) * /.
    trunc (log_datetime),
    Count (*)
    of REMOTE_TABLE@DBLINK alias_remote_tab
    When trunc (log_datetime) = trunc(sysdate-1)
    Trunc Group (log_datetime);

    where:
    REMOTE_TABLE is a table partitioned on log_datetime (monthly)
    IDX_LOG_DATE is an index of bitmap of based on a valid function on log_datetime created in the trunc (log_datetime)
    local database: 10 gr 2
    remote database: 11 GR 1 material
    OS: windows (both)

    More funny thing is when I just run the select query independently on the only both local and remote, the index is used. I checked by printing the command explain for the select query plan. But when I prefix the query with the insert lose all hell breaks and local database plays the ignorance about the index. The command for the insert query explain plan has no mention of the index even when I explicitly place the index indicator in the select part of the query.

    If this should not be simple enough for ORACLE? Am I missing something here?

    Jonathan describes the details and the reasons for the behavior you see in following blog post http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2008/12/05/distributed-dml/
    Your SELECTION is performed remotely (filtering and grouping) and sends only the (relatively) small results via dblink local database while the in an INSERTION, filtering only occurs at the remote and data site (relatively) important are sent via dblink to the local database, the consolidation takes place.
    You can give a try to the approach proposed by michaels2. If the approach from the view result grouping and filtering which will take place in the remote database, you will see improved performance.

    PS BTW, if the sql code that I suggested to check the plane, in my previous post using an index, then the cause of your performance issue is certainly not due to the index not used and is due to the amount of data transferred to dblink.

  • Funny question with the use of applescript to set the position of the quicktime window

    I use an applescript script in automator to start a recording quicktime. When I run the applescript to automator, everything works fine, but when I run the same sequence as a double-clickable application automator, it throws an error * when it gets to this line:

    Tell application "system events" to indicate the process "QuickTime Player" to set the position of the window before {1131, 725}

    Any ideas as to why?

    Thank you!!

    * Error is just, "the"Run AppleScript"action has encountered an error"

    Hello

    Do not use events from system but QuickTime Player itself to manipulate the window, especially when the scripts via the events system tends to be blocked under recent operating systems, even with special measures to release.

    Like that.

    set {x, y} to {1131, 725}
    tell application id "com.apple.QuickTimePlayerX" -- QuickTime Player X
        tell window 1
            set {l, t, r, b} to bounds
            set bounds to {x, y, r - l + x, b - t + y}
        end tell
    end tell
    

    or it-

    set {x, y} to {1131, 725}
    tell application id "com.apple.quicktimeplayer" -- QuickTime Player 7
        tell window 1
            set {l, t, r, b} to bounds
            set bounds to {x, y, r - l + x, b - t + y}
        end tell
    end tell

  • Closed Firefox itself, updated itself and then restarted itself. But the capture, there is no address bar. No windows bar at the bottom either.

    Seriously guys.

    I was in the middle of a YouTube video, firefox gives me the ability to "close the program or wait. I click wait, but it still crashes. Be it, right? Just restart it and return to my video... Nope. Nada.

    Clever little "updating" Firefox dialog box appears. I said aloud, "hmm, I don't remember not accepting an update... not to mention firefox on a curious."

    But I know, right? It's probably a new add-on, or an update for the Add-ons and plug-ins, I installed. It happens.

    ALAS! Firefox opens again, but lack essential things! One of them being the address bar. All this has disappeared. Disappeared! Vahmooshed! GAHN!

    My first thought was that I hit accidentally F-11. Joke on me, right?

    Nope.

    Because not only the whole thing up there is missing, but also my whole bar Windows at the bottom disappeared. What in the blue blazing cahones Zeus going on, guys!

    If there is an easy solution, I apologize in advance. I'm not so suhmart sumteyems. HURR durr.

    But, if it is a form any layout 'full screen' you guys are showing, please give me a way to quarantine it from my computer. It's terrible, like flossing with razorwire while only naked in front of Grandma. I do not recommend!

After that I did a google search and click on the found result, Firefox opens a new window (this is the option you selected), and then immediately closed. This only occurs for some of the results.
