Windows Vista disable itself someone can help me? (Came pre-installed with laptop)

Hi, my Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 (fully updated) has itself disabled and I don't know why. I've had the laptop since late 2009 and got of curries, while he was authentic.

Does anyone know why this happened and how can I get it back?
Whenever I connect it a window appears and says that my product key is not valid.
Please help, I really need to do my job, College, and I can not with this.

Reinstall from the recovery media appropriate should fix the problem - reinstall using any other media will NOT fix the problem.

    Hello JothinVedere

    After you have re-installed Windows XP, you can go on the site Web of Norton and download the software from their part. Once you have downloaded it you should be asked for an email or an account that you configured when you first bought Norton, log. After that, Norton is turned on with the rest of the time for your subscription should be displayed. If you have further questions about Norton, you can click on their link to support here. I hope this helps.

  • Pre-installed Vista CD computer Dell laptop allows you to install Vista on another computer of dell desktop originally pre-installed with XP?

    Hello.

    Have an old dell desktop with XP.
    Have a new computer dell laptop with Vista.

    Both came pre-installed.
    Both came with a CD to reinstall Windows.

    Am I allowed to install Vista from that original CD on the desktop?
    I did, then you have the problem (not genuine copy of Vista). I have since reinstalled Vista, but before I completely setting up the office, once again, I want to make sure that I am able to do this (do not want the new not genuine error).

    Specific questions:
    1. am I allowed to use portable CD to install Vista on another computer?
    2. If so, that must be done to ensure the "not genuine" error can't?

    Thanks for any help.

    Reference Dell binds their records to their motherboards.

    If your computer is pre-installed with Vista, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

    The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
    You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

    And a Vista license = a Vista Installation.

  • How to find my product key Windows 8 if it came pre-installed on my Hp laptop. I want to upgrade to Windows 8.1 when it comes out.

    I would like to install Windows 8.1 when it comes out in August. According to Microsoft:

    You must have your product key to install 8.1. My laptop came pre-installed with it and I don't know where to find. I would not use 3rd party applications. I know how to get into my CMOS and that's all. Thank you.

    With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  • I use my windows live mail and password and now I don't remember the password I used someone can help

    I have a Dell Inspiron 3542 and there a lock screen and I use my windows live email and password, and now I don't remember the password I used someone can help? For now, I use my Dell Inspiron 1545 to my back upwards

    If the computer is on an Internet connection, you can reset the password on the Windows Password Reset site.  If the PC is not online right now if that won't work because it doesn't 'knows' the new password.

    If there is another user account on the computer that has admin access, you can use it to reset your own password from the control panel.

    If there is no other user accounts, there are a built-in backup Administrator account, but for security reasons, you can only get to Safe Mode.

    I wrote a blog where I explain how to make each of these options: http://cmdrkeene.com/reset-forgotten-windows-password

    Hi hope someone can help? I have acrobat pro, 6 have worked well for the past two years but then just stopped working. Have reinstalled but still won't open, ronning windows 7. Help please!  Janice

    Hey janicem42177174,

    Adobe does most support the installation and use of Acrobat 6 because it is a very old version that is not compatible with Windows 7.

    I suggest you to please use the latest version of Acrobat 11.0.10 is perfectly compatible with your operating system with its functions and improved functions.

    You can download a free trial version of 30 days of Acrobat from here:

    Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Professional XI

    Let me know how it goes

  • My computer started to send copies of all email sent again and again... as 26 copies for 1 person, please please someone can help me?

    Can someone help me I am not very computer... my computer started sending multiple copies of any email sent again and again... like 26 copies for 1 person, please please someone can help me
    You did not mention the e-mail program you use. If it's Outlook Express, you have corruption of dbx files.
     
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Compact often as specified above.

  • I hope someone can help me. I changed a few settings in the BIOS Setup, and now I have just a black screen. I changed the main boot to the DVD player device. is it possible to reset to original settings?

    I hope someone can help me. I changed a few settings in the BIOS Setup, and now I have just a black screen. I changed the main boot to the DVD player device.  is it possible to reset to original settings?
    I am running Windows XP

    clint341,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.  We cannot guide you more precisely by changing the BIOS settings that the BIOS settings are specific to your motherboard.  However, most (if not all) parameters of the BIOS have an option to restore the default BIOS (sometimes called "default opitimized").  It may be an option in the menu that you highlight, then press enter or it can be assigned to an F key and States at the bottom of the screen, press F? for the default settings.  I hope this helps.  If you are still not able to reset, check with the manufacturer of PC for more information about the BIOS.

  • Windows Vista 64-bit pc can see Win7 Starter PC but not Win 7 Home Premium PC

    We have a network of 3 computers:

    (1) a desktop PC with Vista 64-bit with all service packs and patches.
    (2) a netbook with Win7 Starter with all service packs and patches.
    (3) a netbook with Win7 Home Premium with all service packs and patches.
    Note, the only difference between the 2 and 3 is the version of Win7 - otherwise, the machines are identical.
    Our network consists of a wired router / wireless connected to a hub for wired connections. Computer 1 connect cable, computers, 2, and 3 usually wireless (even if this problem occurs when you use a wired connection too).
    All computers are in the same workgroup.
    Homegroup is set to 2 or 3.
    All computers have an account protected by login created although not necessarily the same account/password combination.
    All computers have discovered network, files and printers, sharing, file sharing turned Public and password protected sharing turned off.
    Computer 1 peut see 2 on the network and the shared access computer files.
    Computer 1 cannot see computer 3 on the network.
    Computer 1 peut ping to the IP address of computer 3.
    Computer 3 peut see 1 and 2 on the network computer and access shared files.
    Computer 2 peut see 1 and 3 on the network computer and access shared files.
    So - any ideas? It drives me crazy.

    Hello

    I suggest you to follow these steps and check if that helps:
    Method 1:
    If you have installed a security software on the computer, then I suggest you try to disable temporary and check to see if the same problem happens. Make sure that you enable security software back once the diagnosis is made to prevent the computer from virus attacks.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Method 2:
    Try to perform the clean boot and check if it helps:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    NOTE: When you are finished troubleshooting, make sure that you reset the computer in start mode normal such as suggested in step 7 of the above article.

    It will be useful.
