Windows XP install on Windows 7 on laptop slow.

I have an old Acer laptop that I installed Windows 7 ultimate on, however, I don't think that the laptop can cope with what each thing is very s-l-o-w! It is a simple process of re - install Windows XP, I changed systems op on a mac that was a piece of cake, but am a little uncertain on Windows. Any help would be appreciated. Please no technical jargon, I'm not a kind of computer savvy guy. Thank you.

You get a license Windows XP, key support and installation of the product.  Start with the said media and delete all partitions.  Create and install on a new partition.  Mise put up-to-date, install drivers for devices of the Web site or the manufacturers, install other software.
 
If you installed Windows 7 (and have done it correctly) - Windows XP is really no different.

    No you can't. Given that it's a Dell and it came with Windows XP pre-installed, it's an OEM of Windows version.  The biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is that its license it permanently binds to the computer first it is installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold, or given to outside (except with the original computer). If the computer dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    And let me ask you as if you checked to make sure everything on the Dell is compatible with Windows 7, and there are Windows 7 drivers for all your hardware that requires it.

  • I would like to know how to re - install windows on a laptop with the product key on the back of the laptop.

    install windows with the product key

    someone I gifted an old laptop with a lot of things about what I don't want and stuff I want is missing. I would like to know how to re - install windows on the laptop with the product key on the back of my laptop.

    or, even better, if someone could find me a way to get a disk to restore to factory without purchasing information, which would be awsome.

    I thank you for your time and have a good day.

    If the laptop is one of the well known brands, he may well have a restore partition.  If you do not have a manual to the user of this computer, then go to the manufacturers website and look for the documentation.  At the very least, you should be able to find information about how to restore the laptop from the recovery partition.

    If the restore partition has been decimated, the manufacturer may still have available for a nominal cost of installation diskettes.

  • Sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable

    Hello Toshiba Help Center

    Please help me solve this problem

    Three years ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba with Windows Vista preinstalled. I also received a DVD with her recovery. I now want to reinstall Windows and completely format the hard drive - however, the sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable. So what I did... I formatted my laptop for windows 7 and after a few months, I want to recover my product key and install windows vista pre - with the original product key that sound now
    unreadable...

    Is it possible to get it back by, my laptop series No, or...

    Hello, Jeff

    At first, I must say that it is not toshiba Help Center, but user forum created by Toshiba, so if you wait for the response from Toshiba people here you are in the wrong place.
    In any case, in this forum, you can pick up some very useful information and a lot of people here can help you with your problems.

    Return to described the issue.
    Unfortunately you do not understand how it works with the product key and Windows Setup, so I'll try to help you with this.
    Each computer toshiba laptop comes with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and the product key at the bottom of your laptop belongs to this version. With other words: when you buy the new laptop, you have to pay for hardware, operating system and a license for this preinstalled OS. Product key at the bottom is not a kind of universal product key and cannot be used for activation of another version of Windows.

    You can use the delivered Toshiba recovery disc that contains mage replicated several times and each time you will have activated the operating system. When you use the Microsoft disk for the installation of the OS you must have valid product key which belongs to this particular version.

    In your case product key is for Vista, and you cannot use it for Win7 activation. This product key is... unnecessary.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • HP 14-r206nv: Windows activation rejects laptop product key after replacing hard drive

    Hello.

    The hard drive of my laptop not then the computer was sent to the official service (first back to the store where I bought as it is still under warranty). Today, that she came to me with a new hard drive but with no OS installed, so I tried to install it on my own as I am a student in computer engineering.

    I know that in windows preinstalled computers laptops like mine is the product key is stored in the bios I did a clean install of Windows 8.1 64bits (non-professional because I know that you need to install the exact same version). But the problem is that now, windows can not be activated. Activation in internet reports"Error Code: 0xC004C003. "Error description: the activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked '.

    So I tried to do an activation phone but microsoft support, they responded that it is not a valid product key and that I should get in touch with the manufacturer! What's wrong?

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I read your post on activation problems and wanted to help.

    Sorry, but that's just one buy volunteers self-help personal forum and we cannot do anything about the problem of activation of here.

    As I see it, you have two options (1) of the store and the Support of HP (2).

    About the store, they SHOULD have returned the laptop you fully functional.  So if it was MY PC, I would go assault store and REQUEST that they we're right.  You've taken or sent to them to be fixed, not to give cost you a virgin machine!

    Regarding technical Support HP, as this PC is still under warranty, you should contact HP Customer Support directly so they put you in contact with HP Tech Support to see what they can do on the diagnosis and repair of your machine remotely.

    I did recently, and HP technology was able to remotely access my PC on the Internet and to make the necessary repairs.

    Product name: Pavilion m6-1061er reinstall Windows on the laptop

    Serial number: [personal information deleted]

    Windows7 Home was broken, but the hardware is OK. I have no disk with Windows 7 Home.

    I have the sticker on laptop with symbols

    Product key: XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

    [Personal information]

    My request is: how to install Windows 7?

    Hello

    There are two options available.

    1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

    Order HP recovery disks.

    2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

    An example of a COA label can be seen here.

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a very respected source (Digital River).

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.
