You can use individual product key cards from the OS?

Then I came across this link and I was wondering if I could use it to perform a new installation of Linux to Windows 8. Or can I only use it to upgrade to one Windows system to another?

As I review the description, I notice that it does not refer to other versions of Windows... but some customers say otherwise.

Please let me know.

Thank you

EDIT: I found another link, thought it is sold out here. Is it another product I can buy this will be let me switch OS or is this the same situation as above?

EDIT EDIT: I know I'm getting really off topic here, but what - what exactly I have to buy to switch from Linux to Windows 8? I went directly to the source here and yet it says: Windows full version 8.1 is for Windows 7 users only. So here's what I have to go to get something I can't switch from Linux to Windows with?

Sorry for my ignorance - it was a complete accident that I bought a Linux laptop so...

It is only intended to upgrade computers running: Windows 7, Windows XP or Windows Vista?

Because your computer is on Linux, you must buy the full license of Windows 8.1 and create a bootable copy if you buy online from a computer running Windows or buy retail package.

    You can use Javascript or HTML5 automatically detect the location of the viewers?

    Yes - it's called the geolocation API (http://www.w3.org/TR/geolocation-API/)

    A few simple examples:

    http://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html5_geolocation.asp

    And if so, how specific can you be

    In General, it is pretty accurate on GPS devices (mobile phone, for example) because they use GPS satellites to determine location. Peripheral WiFi use triangulation of access point, which is less accurate. If a device is connected via a cable (computer desktop for example), it will use the IP address, which is not at all accurate or completely wrong

    NB. the user must allow access to the API first, because of the risk of privacy.

  • You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

    I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

    You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

  • Can I use a product key UPGRADE from 32-bit Windows 7 to a new clean install of Windows 7 64-bit?

    In 2009, I upgraded my laptop from Vista to Windows 7 32 bit. This laptop recently died and is no longer in use.

    I am building a new computer and I want to install it on Windows 7 64 bit (there no initial operating system because it is a made to measure machine).
    Can I install Windows 7 64 bit on the new machine and then use the old product key, that I received in 2009, even though it was a upgrade for the 32-bit product key?

    If its a version upgrade, the answer is no.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • The ASA can use 2 dynamic cryptographic cards on the external interface?

    We have an ASA which is currently used with dynamic VPN. I don't know the pre-shared key.  If I was going to try to create another card encryption. I did not want to bring another drop.  I know that the router does not allow.  It would replace the existing info.  I wasn't sure of the SAA.

    David,

    The pre shared key is defined in the specific tunnel-group, not in the crypto map.

    tunnel-group ipsec-attributes

    pre-shared key cisco

    However, by default:

    Dynamics of LAN-to-LAN tunnels using the 'DefaultL2LGroup '.

    L2TP/IPsec connections use the 'DefaultRAGroup '.

    In order to see the pre shared key in clear text: "more system: run".

    You can have a single card dynamic encryption card crypto, but you can have multiple entries / map instances of this dynamic, for example:

    Crypto-map dynamic dynamic_map 10 the value transform-set ESP-AES-256-SHA

    Crypto-map dynamic dynamic_map 20 the value transform-set ESP-AES-192-SHA


    map outside_map 65535-isakmp ipsec crypto dynamic dynamic_map

    More info:

    Dynamic IPsec Tunnel between a statically addressed ASA and dynamically addressed Cisco IOS router that uses the example of Configuration of CCP

  • Can we use this product key on the back of the laptop for the activation and the windows 7 Professional 32-bit to windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade?

    I have a laptop HP originally shipped with windows 7 32-bit professional. Now I want to upgrade to windows 7 professional 64 bit. I don't have with me installation disk. So I thought that it is possible (and legal) to resume an installation of windows 7 professional 64 bit disc from a friend and use this product key on the back of my laptop computer to activate windows after the installation of 64-bit? I'm a bit confused.

    NOTE: This sticker on the laptop has windows 7 pro oa, and a product key to 25 digits (xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx) written on it.

    In addition, the product ID in the information system in the control panel is OEM.

    Yes, you can use the product key located on the COA sticker with a full retail version or the version upgrade Windows 7 Professional disc.

    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

    http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

    Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7
    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.
