What type of help? proudplp 09-12-07, - 11:18 PM What type of help? help on how to get into my computer? I can't do nothing. Joe Baboon 09-12-07, - 11:23 PM help on how to get into my computer? I can't do nothing. You won't be able to do anything after you load it. The industry has mostly rejected Vista. benjamieson 09-12-07, - 11:39 PM upgrade to XP I second that. Vista lasted about 3 weeks on my Mac. proudplp 09-12-07, - 11:54 PM upgrade to XP :D sorry havent really used Vista "yet" .. I do have to very soon though, as my clients are now. My mother was able to get in though without my assist, on her new laptop (which I reloaded with XP afterwards!). What exactly is the problem. Is it a new PC, and is it asking for a key? If so, you need to get that Key from the PC, or the booklets that came with it; then enter that into the box . Rorry I can't do nothing with my computer. All it keep saying is put in product key , some phone sytem or buy product key online But when I try to put it the product i have it says it's not valid. proudplp 09-12-07, - 11:56 PM upgrade to XP :D sorry havent really used Vista "yet" .. I do have to very soon though, as my clients are now. My mother was able to get in though without my assist, on her new laptop (which I reloaded with XP afterwards!). What exactly is the problem. Is it a new PC, and is it asking for a key? If so, you need to get that Key from the PC, or the booklets that came with it; then enter that into the box . yes it's new & I try all of that but still nothing. When I SAY I CAN"T DO NOTHING on my computer I mean NOTHING!!!!!! proudplp 09-12-07, - 11:58 PM Yup, im going to put it on a second PC and keep my main one as is .. only use it for client support, the ones that keep it on their PCs that is. :D Could someone anyone please tell me how to get this crap(vista) off my computer please.? proudplp 09-13-07, - 12:02 AM 1-Make sure it is the correct product key. Where are you getting the key from? 2-Make sure you are entering it correctly Dont enter the dashes - they will be added automatically. As I said, I havent used it, but see the following links: http://www.vistaclues.com/windows-vista-product-key-now-optional/ http://www.petri.co.il/install_windows_vista_without_supplying_the_product_key.htm Question, is this a new PC, or have you been using it with Vista for a while now? Is it a custom built PC, or a brand name, and where did you buy it from (US/Locally)? well someone bought for me f it rom the us. I order it november paid for from january & got it in july. And rory I am try everything what they tell in the book & NOTHING IS WORKING AT ALL. 1bigfrog 09-13-07, - 12:03 AM I need help with VISTA. down grade to XP proudplp 09-13-07, - 12:04 AM You would need to format and load XP setup. But you need to either have a CD yourself, or have someone do that for you that has the CD and knows how to. The next problem will be getting the drivers for the PC, as many brands designed for Vista have issues in that area, it took me 2 weeks to locate drivers that worked on XP, for a Gateway Laptop that was designed for Vista; took me less than a couple hours to get an HP up and running though, so it depends entirely on the model and make, if its a laptop, it makes it slightly more difficult than a desktop. Rory it's a hp computer. 1bigfrog 09-13-07, - 12:05 AM down grade to XP oh well...sounds like its too late for that idea. proudplp 09-13-07, - 12:05 AM down grade to XP I want too BUT HOW????? proudplp 09-13-07, - 12:07 AM Is it a laptop or desktop, and what model and brand is it? desktop . what you mean by model? it's a hp. proudplp 09-13-07, - 12:10 AM Ok, and this is the very first time using it right? I was using it from late july. that product key thing keep poping up |
