Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:
Method 1: I suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malware
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Important: While running scan on the hard drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive when scanning try to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.
Method 2: If this does not help then you can uninstall and reinstall Windows search 4.0 on the computer.
Follow the steps below to uninstall:
a. click on Start
b. click Control Panel
c. select Add / Remove Program

Windows still ask for activation after that laptop was RMA would be
My laptop has been recently would be RMA and they replaced the motherboard, keyboard and VGA card. Shortly after receiving this return, Windows began to ask for an activation code. Unfortunately, I didn't write mine down, and the sticker is now faded and illegible. I sent my new laptop because that's what the OEM has asked that I do and they replaced my HARD drive and installed Vista fresh. It does not solve the problem at all.
Without my original activation code, I don't think I can reactivate Windows. Is there anyway to recover my product key or how to contact Microsoft to get a new one? Because it seems that through my OEM drives me nowhere as they want me to RMA again.
If your Vista operating system was running, and enabled, we could have helped you recover your product key.
Unfortunately, this does not apply.I'm sorry, but we cannot help you, you don't have a legible label on your laptop...
It is the responsibility of the OEM to support you.
See you soon.

How can I configure Windows 8 ask me before closing a browser window?
How can I configure Windows 8 ask me before closing a browser window?
Does anyone know if there is a way to configure programs such as IE or Chrome, even files explore to ask before a window is closed when you miss click on the X icon? I know that there is a way like to keep the research that you've had, but I want to open a dialog before it closes is not to save my session information.
Thank you!
Alguien conoce una forma to prevent than simply to cierren las ventanas than uno esta using programas como o IE Chrome, y hasta el explorador carpetas, sino that empowers a dialogo seeking confirmation box? What does hay una forma to save las busquedas, o una sesion sites, pero no eso are lo than busco.
Gracias!
It's not really a way to do that, I'm sorry to say. At least no way built in and not by any software I've seen. Although I'm not really sure there is no technical limitation if someone wanted to do it.
I actually usually use the keyboard just to avoid such accidents. If I want to enlarge or shrink a program, I'm going to press the Windows Logo and the top or down arrows rather than click, so that I don't hit that X. :)
