Windows 8 advising: "unsupported platform" - why?

• I get a message that my system will not load Windows 8 Preview Release. Why?

  My computer is a Dell... It has 2.40 Ghz processor and 1 Gig of Ram... But it tells me my computer will not load Windows 8... Why?

  Can anyone explain that?

  Yes, your CPU or the motherboard doesn't have the ability to run hardware D.E.P., so there is no chance of running the Preview Release of 8-all somehow.

  There is the possibility to set the nx or xd bit in the bios and the cpu to support it as well.

  TBC: Run CPU - Z and say please use the exact model (details) of the processor, it says you have.

  When Windows checks to see if you have moved your copy of Windows to "another computer", among other things, that his focus on the identification of several strands of material in the computer to see if they are different than when Windows was first installed.  I do not remember the list for now, but I remember that the network card is one of the pieces - and IIRC it is 'valuable' higher than others to reach the conclusion.

  You probably other elements has changed over the past seven years and now Windows has decided to have a "new" computer  Assuming that you haven't changed the motherboard - if you had, you would have had this issue at the time wherever you did--your installation is still legal.  Reactivate using your original license key.

  Acrobat STD is not available for Mac, you can install only the Acrobat Pro version.  Platform swap option is not available in this case, the product itself is different.

  If its like version of Windows Acrobat pro, you can change it to Acrobat Pro Mac. But not Acrobat Std to Acrobat Pro.

  However, for any additional clarification, you can reach the Support from Adobe:

  You can install Acrobat 10 from the URL mentioned below as a trial and I was good for 30 days only.

  Like, we offer 30 day trials. Don't forget to download the X pro we offer no path for the standard version.

  Windows 8 on volume 4

  Installation of Windows

  I tried all 3 and each of them became all black and then blue screen, your computer has encountered a problem....

  I went into recovery options and each tried and nothing worked.  The last option that I came was to make Factory Image Recovery, I need Windows 8 Pro because I join domain and use Bitlocker and start with the virtual hard drive.  Why it failed, would it secure boot or UEFI.  Please tell me what I can do to get this update to work.  The upgrade looked like it was working but then wouldn't boot into Windows more after the reboot.

  Sorry for the experience with the support of Microsoft. I wasn't expecting that. Let us try the old process to restore the system to the factory settings, uninstalling unwanted applications and then create an inplace upgrade to Windows 8 Pro. Let's see what happens this time.

• It seems obvious to me Windows doesn't remove Skype - why? Just so they can score more money? It's a pretty sick pattern for a billionaire to act.

  I can only say: greed is bad and are therefore undertaken dictatorial. Now Windows and Skype merged - Skype, which is one of the most labyrinthine sites, never in the web! Why do they do that? Obviously we all wrong! Everyone who uses Windows is not agree?

• some windows updates not always settle. why it is so?

  some windows updates not always settle. Here are the updates that are not always.

  Update of security for Microsoft Office Publisher 2003 (KB2284695)
  Update for the filter of junk e-mail in Outlook 2003 (KB2466074)
  Update of security for Microsoft Office 2003 (KB2289163)
  Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 (KB2449798)

  I don't know why not install microsoft office updates. Maybe because we use cracked versions of office. I think that these updates will not fail if we use a saved version of office 2003. is it so?.

  First thing I would do is to remove the cracked versions and then make a broad analysis AV with malwarebytes and other utilities of the VA, not to say what other little hidden surprise, that you got for free.

• Help: update for Windows Vista (KB971644) _ platform

  Greetings:

  I keep getting told that the update above wants to be installed.  I tried to install it about 5 times and every time the system does the following:

  1 download the software
  2 install the software
  3. wonder to reboot the machine (which I do)
  4. in step 3 of the process, he confgures the downloaded software
  5. said that something was wrong with the configuration of the software... no error code.  just something went wrong.
  6 restores the system to the point of departure.
  7 restart the system

  This is getting frustrating... my system has very well updated with each produced Vista fix.  is there a way to bypass this update or can I get windows update in order to stop telling me that this update is available?
