Windows 8.0 it will continue to support the

I have an old workstation HP with single Xeon 3.06 core 2 processors and 8 GB of ram with windows 8.0. It runs great. But the Upgrade Wizard indicates that my computer can not put because of my old processors. :-(

I'm not buying a new computer right now so my question is will. Microsoft continues to support 8.0? I can't find an answer to this. If anyone knows and or has a link to the answer, I would be grateful.

Thank you!

"Windows 8 customers will have two years to move to Windows 8.1 after the general availability of the Windows updated 8.1 to continue to remain supported in the title of the lifecycle of Windows 8." That means Windows 8 support, at least for the version that launched a year ago, will officially end on 18 October 2015.

If you decide to upgrade to Windows 8.1, Microsoft will continue to support the operating system under its support lifecycle main period of time, with standard support ending January 9, 2018 and extended support until January 10, 2023. In other words, there are very few things to avoid that anyone with a PC running Windows 8 download for Windows 8.1.

Regarding why you can't upgrade to Windows 8.1, is indeed strange, you check the updates to the BIOS? Its possible it could be updates available that will support, especially if she can already run Windows 8. Workstation HP what model is?

What version of Windows also brought originally preinstalled with or which version you put in?

If its Vista you could restore that, since Vista will be supported until 2017 or Windows 7, which will be supported until 2020.

    If I update to windows 7 to 10 will I lose all the data stored, photos, etc.

    It seems that you do not have to back up your data regularly. A lot of people don't. By far the best incentive for them to change their habits is a disastrous loss of data. In this forum, we receive their calls for assistance with great regularity.

    To answer your question:

    • People do not back up their irreplaceable files regularly (e.g. weekly) will sooner or later lose them. It's only a matter of time.
    • People performing a major operation as an upgrade of the operating system considerably increases the risk of losing their data.
    • Those who backup their data without immediately pick up some examples of files on another PC often find that their untested backup is useless.

    This current position illustrates the problem.

  • Windows 7 splash screen will not change after the vista update

    After updating vista 32 bit to windows 7 32 bits, the splash screen will not change and he showed the vista boot. I read a lot of forum and the web page, but this solution:

    «.. . the dummies and bad start screen for Windows 7 is due to the locale entry in the startup folder, which could not be set when editing or rebuilding the BCD. When the locale is not found, Windows boot loader doesn't know what local startup folder to look for the animated bootscreen. Thus, in order to fix the boot screen so that the splash screen can be re-established, restored or reset to original animated Windows 7 boot screen, just run one of the following commands at the prompt with administrator rights:

    bcdedit/set {current} settings regional en-US

    or

    BCDboot % WinDir % / l en

    Change the US to the language version of Windows 7 installed, as ja - JP, en - us, es - ARE, pt - BR, zh - CN, zh - TW, fr - FR, fi - FI and etc.

    Restart the computer after running the command to see the new boot UI (user interface) be used again. To check if the locale has been entered properly, just run the bceedit command in the command prompt that is running as an administrator... »

    =================================
    Windows Media Player cannot rotate a video.

    Windows Live Movie Maker can turn a video clip, but you
    may need to convert the video to a compatible format like
    . WMV, before you can import it into Windows Live Movie
    Maker.

    If you're worried about losing or try 10 create a mirror of your current copy of 7 on an external hard drive or an ssd. Then do the upgrade and see if you like 10. If you don't then just swap the external or clone again.

    Personally, I think 10 is just like missing in 8, and even more the operating system of the consumer is not a producer. I certainly wouldn't use 10 for the company. All the stuff of cloud, you can always get while using 7. The whole operating system has the same pattern as this Web site. Crie OS trying to save ram... iphone-esque; Anorexic active Windows.

  • It will be never supported the format h.264 in Firefox Desktop with HTML5 video on. ?

    I understand that there are problems of patents in the problem with Firefox. But I am just wondering it won't ever taken support H.264 and other video formats using HTML5 on only without the addition of the Flash Plugin. The Flash Plugin works with all video formats I've met, but it is also painful to use as it crashes quite easily. Not only that, on some videos, it 40% of my transformative power of pigs, or using 30% of my RAM. It's much too just for a video plugin normal to watch videos online.

    I thank very you much for the replies. I've been holding back Firefox update because of incompatibilities of the extension. But if there will be support H.264 with HTML5 on Firefox. I'd be happy enough with that. I guess I'll have to find a work around with the incompatibilities with extensions that are in the problem with the latest version.

    Thank you once again.

  • Aspire V3-771 Wireless Windows 7 Ultimate edition will not return to the factory settings

    Hello everyone,
    so I'm having to V3-771-6601 laptop which I bought in the US 2 years ago. I have some kind of virus which was activated immediately after the sign in. Some photos of Interpol appears and they wanted to charge a fraud or something like that. I tried to press CTRL + ALT + DEL to task mngr, but the virus won't let me. So I entered in safe mode and saved all my valuable information. The laptop has windows 7 Home Edition. I decided to install W7 Ultimate RTM. So when I was doing that, I formatted ALL partitions that I saw on the screen. After that i have PXE boot problem. I realized that I need to connect my lan cable. Ok. After that the computer does not start, it shows just acer splash screen and immediately restarts again and again and again. I tried to click ALT + F10. At the bottom left, I saw "switch to erecovery" or something like that. After pressing alt + f10 there is a '_' in the upper left corner, and the Frank is frozen. So I can't even boot to see victory logo, even I can't return my phone to factory settings. Just to note I have no CD with my PC, only the power chords and that's all. The House of win 7 was already languages. Please guys help me how to fix my laptop.
    Best regards

    Well, you could have done your own recovery discs when you bought your PC!

    I agree that it is a shame that you can't get a copy of the disks where you live!

    If you are happy to have a cracked version of Windows, it is to you. Even if you can open a Pandora's box, we'll agree disagree on the question

    As for the problem of button, it could be a sign of a faulty keyboard or it could be a software problem. A few copies of cracking are so changed, it could be an error in the code!

    You can try and run a Linux live disk to see if it happens there. If so, then the keyboard will be replaced.

  • Windows Media Player 12 will not reinstall, corrupt the file 'mpvis.dll.mui '.

    I'm trying to fix Windows Media Player 12 without success.

    I tried 'turned on' and 'off' Windows Media Player via "Turn Windows features on or off"-there did not work.  It will not fix the problem, and I think I know why.

    I ran sfc/scannow from the cmd prompt gives me the following in the CBS.log log error message:

    [RS] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520 {260}, l:106 {53}] '------? \C:\Program files (x 86) \Windows Media Player\en-US "------[l:26 {13}] 'mpvis.dll.mui '; source file in the store is also corrupted

    I just took the 'ownership' of the file and replaced by a different copy on another hard drive that worked.  I have the journal and if the information is needed to solve this problem I'll post here apart from the above error message.

    Attempt to run Windows Media player only gives me the error message:

    "Window Media Player is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled.  You want to install the player from the Microsoft website? »

    I 'want' install the player on MS website, but they do not offer this possibility because it is nowhere available for download.  I have to say I am frustrated by this situation and I would like to know why MS decided to make this hassle to reinstall a program properly.

    I guess that's the only option.
