Windows 8 CD - Key works only with windows 7.

Hello

I had my old computer, windows 7 Home premium installed by default. However, on the launch of windows 8, I paid for the upgrade to windows 8. I have recently bought a new computer, uninstall windows of my old computer (I formatted). And then install windows 7 pro (I watched the downgrade right and that was supposed to work). However, when I try to use my license of windows 8, it says that my windows key 7 is incorrect. Why is - it does not, I do not envy pay for a product that I already paid for.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks for the quick response!

I am a little disappointed by that. It seems that there is practically no way to get windows 7 back. In this case, I could install windows 8.1 from an ISO and use my windows 8.1 CD - key to activate it right? Do you know where I can get an ISO appropriate to do the installation?

Thank you

You can use the Windows 8.1 Upgrade Wizard to download the installation files and create a. ISO for which you can use your retail key.

  • Windows Wireless keyboard 3000 v2 multimedia keys works only with Itunes.

    My room, then move on to the previous song, Skip to follow and stop the keys on my keyboard don't work for Itunes.

    I have the latest version of Itunes and intellitype pro and Windows 7 64-bit.

    They keys seem to work perfectly well with Windows media player, but not iTunes. ITunes is also set as the default program for music.

    I also tried the solution involving a file called mmkeys.dll, and put this file in the material master record of the ins.

    Before when I had vista 32 bit and an older version of intellitype pro, I change songs, pause, stop, at any time, even when running full-screen programs. Once I upgraded however, it stopped working.

    Please help, this is really boring.

    Compensatory salvation,

    As the keyboard works very well with Windows Media Player, and it does not work with iTunes, so maybe that's a problem with iTunes installed on the computer.

    You can try uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes on your computer and check if that helps you.

    You can also try to update the drivers for keyboard wireless from the link below and check.

    Any ideas please?

    If you have downgraded to Windows XP with the Microsoft disk, you must install the utilities Toshiba and Hotkey Utility.

  • DeskJet 722C works only with Windows 7

    OK, so I applied the DJ_Patch as described. (See http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Software-and/Deskjet-710-720-810-820-100-Series-prin... ) I have Windows 7, 64-bit and a HP Deskjet 722 C printer.  Tried to print the test page, but received the error from the printer.  Tried to add a printer, you are looking for the 722C, but it is not on the list, even tried to do Windows Update to search for my printer.   Tried to restart, which did not work or the other.  Still get error printer.  I appreciate any other suggestions.  BTW, the printer is connected via a USB to parallel port cable.

    My HP Deskjet 722C now works!  I spent several hours trying different things only to find out it was the cable use to connect the printer to our new computer.  He is there not a lot of info on the package of cable but if you watched closely he said it worked only with Win XP, me and Vista.  Who would have thought that the cable wasn't working with some BONE... me!  Once we went and bought a new cable ($40, Ouch!), we were running a few minutes.  I don't know that a cheaper cable is available online.

    I wanted to post this in the hope of saving someone money, time and frustration on the other.

  • CS6 Production Premium supports AMD graphics cards? Specifically over-pants M6100. If so, all the features work with the M6100, or are there features that work only with nVidia video cards?

    CS6 Production Premium supports AMD graphics cards? Specifically over-pants M6100. If so, all the features work with the M6100, or are there features that work only with nVidia video cards?

    CS6 does support OpenCL and OpenGL?

    Are all features that CS6 supports for NVidia Cuda available for the M6100 OpenCL?

    Bill supposed to first Pro CC (not CS6) response. Windows of Premiere Pro CS6 version does not support OpenCL for accelerating GPU of MPE. Therefore, there is no "opencl_supported_cards.txt" file in the folder of Premiere Pro, and the code to OpenCL is disabled permanently in all versions of Windows from Premiere Pro CS6. So, for your over-pants M6100 Premiere Pro CS6 will be permanently locked to only software MPE mode. (Acceleration GPU of MSES in the Windows of Premiere Pro CS6 version is limited to the CUDA only, which means that only NVIDIA for GPU - no AMD over-pants or GPU Radeon support CUDA at all.)

    Welcome to the joys of IEEE 754 floating-point arithmetic. For more fun, try ".1 + 1 - 1»

    The simplest answer is probably to limit your result with Number.toFixed (). The answer is not so easy is to write your own class BigDecimal (in Java).

    It seems calculation Manager works only with EPMA for the application of the classic plsnning, I cannot use the module of business rule and cannot use the Manager of computing to work on business rules, is good? correct me and advise, thank you!

    Sorry I disagree

    You can use the calc for classic version 11.1.1.3 planning
    When you create a planning application in 11.1.1.3 classic, you have the option to choose if you use business rules or calc for the app Manager.
