Windows XP SP3 installation will erase the data on the computer?
original title: if I change my windows xp sp2 to windows xp sp3, the data of my other drives (D:, E: and F :) will get deleted? what should I back up these data?)
I currently have Windows xp sp2. I want to switch to windows xp sp3 install some software. During the installation of Windows xp sp3, the data from the rest of my readers (D:, E:, F :) will remain intact or will be deleted?) what I need to save all that data?
They should not be made, but if you have 3 other physical disks I would disconnect the data cable for each disk to be sure.
Also would be wise to create a backup of the Image of your disk/partition of Windows XP before installing SP3 just in case there are problems.

DCOM error 1016 Windows XPx32
Several solutions, all virtually identical to this question:
Machine default permission settings grant Local Activation permission for the application server COM with the CLSID
{A4199E55-EBB9-49E5-AF1A-7A5408B2E206}
the user NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE SID (S-1-5-20). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.However, the error persists; Windows XP (SP3) refuses to allow the addition of "Network Service" as a user of the service DCOM. The question was supposed to be fixed in a service pack, patches, etc., but he persists. This despite the change permissions to allow that user permissions in HKCR | CLSID. {"clsid :} or HKLM\Software\Classes\AppID.

Adil is correct. The RAM and hard drive are considered "replaceable consumer units", which means Lenovo allows not only, but expect end users to manage any updates of these components by themselves.

How can I reinstall Windows XP? I don't have my OEM of Windows ME records. I don't have my Windows XP to upgrade the disks I got the OEM. It was a free upgrade to Windows XP with my purchase of the computer with Windows Millennium Edition.
I'm sorry, but you will need a Windows 9 x / ME drive to provide during the XP installation from the XP disc is a version upgrade. There is no way around that. See if you can find a friend with an older operating system disk (not a recovery disk) to support qualification. Otherwise, you would need to buy the full version (not upgrade) of XP to install on the computer. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

Hello
I like the text-to-speech engine in Windows. I want to have the computer voice on Star Trek to be my text-to-speech voice. How can I do this?It must be possible, but 2012 already.Another way to ask, where is a large collection / selection / compilation of the text-to-speech voices I can install? Created by Msft or 3rd party.Windows 8 voices are not the answer, either.Hello
Microsoft does not speech engines provide additional (voice), but there are a number of third-party products that support the new Microsoft Speech API
Please use your favorite search engine and browse for voice of Star trek, which can be used for this purpose.
Note: Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be resolved. Software using third party is at your own risk. -

Original title: upgrade Windows 10
I made an iso file for windows 10. I am waiting to upgrade until all the bugs are being developed. My question is: will the iso file of windows 10 still work to upgrade my computer to windows 7 after the date limit to install the free version?
The ISO will work after the date limit, but you can buy Windows 10 after the date limit, if you don't improve and activate it before that date.
Windows 10 is delivered as a service:
Windows July 10 release - build 10240
Windows Update 10 November - build 10586 (with many updates depuis.13,.29,. 36)
If you want to take advantage of the free offer, you must do so before July 29, 2016.
If you the newer versions are released before then, you can always download and install when it becomes available.
You could also install it now then download updates via Windows Update as soon as they are available.

Windows Media Player does not work. Impossible to use slide show programs, can not open attachments that require Media Player. Tried to update and couldn't. Couldn't fix it.
Hello
Run the sfc/scannow command.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833
Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:
- Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
- Type the following command and press ENTER:sfc/scannow
The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions
If SFC detects the main problems it can't fix you may need to borrow a Microsoft dvd vista not an acer, HP etc. recovery disk and do a repair installation

Windows 7 for Lenovo G50-70 - the computer will not boot from the CD
Hello world
I hope that someone here will be able to help
I bought a new laptop with Windows 8.1. I want to install Windows 7 on that I know well because I can't use the new windows. I changed the settings in the BIOS to get the machine to boot from the CD, but it won't be fair. I also tried to restore the system to boot from the CD, but it installs just the Windows pre-installed, new instead. Also, I can't access the CD from the drive while all my other computers are capable of (what is strange)
Can someone help, please?
See you soon
PS. : I can turn on the computer through the small "boot botton" on the side and select the DVD drive to boot from. But this is not followed by the message "Press any key to boot from CD" and the computer starts just W8 yet;
I contacted customer service and followed your advice. They refused to help him on the ground that there nothing wrong with the machine in their opinion, and since I wanted to change operating system. All preinstalled spyprogrammes Lenovo has been erased with this downgrade. So far, I've owned a laptop computer brand new and expensive for a year I used only to waste my time, trying to make it work, that was not why I bought it in the first place. What a RIP-OFF!

XP installation will void the warranty
Hello
I hope I am in the right place to ask this question - find info on the Toshiba site is not very easy! I am looking to buy a laptop Toshiba with Vista preloaded, but want to partition the drive and put XP on the partition as a dual boot. What I need to know is, this will void the international guarantee? Or where can I find?
Hope you can help!
Thank you
Don t worry buddy. Installation of all applications, programs, software and other operating systems will not void the warranty.
I recommend that you first create a new partition in Windows Vista, and then you could try to reinstall Win XP on the new partition.Greetings
