Windows XP Professional; Information System

I have a Dell GX 260, which had been renovated. It has Windows XP Professional loaded.
I don't have access to the Windows XP disc. The problem is:
When I go to start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system information, rather
to get the system information page, I get a Windows Help and Support Center page.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time

What happens if you try to run the program directly (include the quotation marks):

Start-> Run--> "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo\msinfo32.exe"

(or browse to the location above and double-click the file.)

HTH,

    How to get windows 7 Professional operating system software for existing key

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    There is no need to uninstall anything, as such.

    Simply start on DVD - you may need to change the BIOS boot sequence - and follow the instructions, you will have an option to format the drive existing at a given time, and you should do it.

    Note that this will wipe the drive clean - back up all data you must first of all external media.

    Your computer has a sticker of the COA? -If Yes, for which version and edition of Windows is valid?

  • Upgrade in Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional by using the OEM System Builder Pack

    I built a computer and initially installed Windows 7 Home Premium using an OEM System Builder Pack. Now, I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. I have a new OEM System Builder Pack for Windows 7 Professional. How can I do this without losing the files, data, documents, etc., and I can put this copy of Windows 7 Home Premium on another computer? It is a personal computer only. Thank you.

    Unfortunately, you will need to do an install custom, which means that your applications and drivers will need to be reinstalled.

    If you want to keep your personal files, you can use the custom installation of the configuration to do:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Buy mini laptop on eBay, information system indicates Windows CE Version 6.0

    OK, I bought a mini laptop on ebay and when I got it I started to play around with it and I noticed that his system was in place. I want to know what is windows it because I never heard of him and how do I change the system as it leaves me nothing in the internet because its system is not compatible with the files I opened. This what should I please help me

    * original title - I BOUGHT a NEW laptop AND WHEN IT ARRIVED, I NOTICED HIS NAME SYSTEM WAS UNDER WINDOWS THIS VERSION 6.00, this WHO SHOULD I DO ON IT AND IT doesn't NOT ALLOW ME DO NOTHING *.

    Windows CE is the operating system for PDAS, Windows based Smartphones and other small mobile devices. It is my understanding that Microsoft has begun to use the term 'Windows Mobile' instead of Windows CE after the release of Pocket PC 2002.  Windows CE has become an embedded operating system, in real-time, based on components. She's is more focused only on laptop computers. Many platforms are based on the Windows CE based operating system, including Microsoft AutoPC, Pocket PC 2000, Pocket PC 2002, Windows Mobile 2003, Windows Mobile 2003 SE, Windows Mobile 5.0, Windows Mobile 6, Smartphone 2002, Smartphone 2003, Portable Media Center and many industrial devices and embedded systems. Windows CE even Powered Games for the Dreamcast, was the operating system of the handheld Gizmondo and partially usable on Xbox games consoles updated the.

    There are versions of 'Pocket' of most of the main software that will allow you to open any file that you can open on your Windows desktop. Microsoft Office Mobile allows you to open Microsoft Office files.  Adobe has versions of their software that will allow you to open PDF files. I've been using Windows CE for more than 10 years and I have not found a file that I can not open on my PDA and mobile devices.

    Some of the above information is from Wikipedia.

    I hope you find this information useful.

  • Cannot access Windows software for Information management. Windows XP Professional Windows 8 Pro upgrade will not work.

    It started a month or two ago when the print spooler has stopped working. 'Systems', or had no dependencies. It turns out that none of the services had dependencies, but everything still worked (except the print spooler). Then, I could not access "system information". I tried to restore to an earlier date, that wouldn't work. Tried to do a picture of Macruim Reflect - no luck there either.  My laptop works fine, although slow. Got the printer to work. This lack of progress, I decided I would just upgrade to windows 7, then decided to Windows 8. Me am upgrading of Windows 8 Pro: he went through "preparation" 100% of the screen. On the screen "Get The Latest" I tried 'install updates now' and 'no thank you', the results were the same. On the page "Check your system", he comes back: 'something has happened. Sorry, we're having some difficulty to determine if your PC can run Windows 8. If please close Setup and try again. "He wouldn't have spent so far. The problem may lie in the fact that the upgrade can not see the information system and/or can not say that I am on Windows XP. Is there something I can do for the upgrade to continue?

    Hello

    Most of the older machines running XP are not compatible with the help of Windows 8.

    Follow these steps before you install Windows 8.

    Go to your laptop manufacturer's website and check if Windows 8 drivers are available for your make and model laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 8 does not work for you.

    Download and run the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant of to see if your machine is compatible Windows 8:
