I realize this is OT section of forum. Didn't know exactly where to put this and since a thread like this could easily take a turn for the worst, figured OT wasn't a bad place to start. Mods can do...
I have two machines in question. One 8.1x64 Pro and one 10x64 Pro. When I:
DISM /online /Get-CurrentEdition and
DISM /online /Get-TargetEditions, on the 8.1 machine I see current edition is ...
Thanks. I have LTSB ISOs (and Enterprise) however had read that LTSB was not intended for general release to the community. Is that still the case? Perhaps I should give it another chance and look...
I'm running 10 Pro x64 on a machine with an i3 2120 @ 3.3GHz, 8GB DDR3 and a 300GB WD HLHX 10k RPM raptor drive. Also have NVIDIA Quardo NVS 420 video card with 3x Dell 1908FP monitors hooked up....
Sorry, Have not tried it with the T7500 machine. I have ESXi running on the first one right now so I can't take it offline and swap the HDD's back to see if it'll register/unregister properly. I have...
Thank you! Tried it. It works... Next reply will be from a Linux OS... :-/
Wow that's cool (and a bit scary)... So I can nuke the HDD and I don't even need to make a backup copy? It'll just auto re-authenticate and be good to go? Thanks!
Hate to come here and ask this. Purpose of this thread is not to trash W10.
I'd like to format and install another OS on my desktop's HDD. What is the best way to keep my activated 8.1x64 Pro COA...
These are old PCs. Dell T5500's manufactured in 2009-2010. They came with W7 Pro COA's. I later put W8 Pro on a few of them (legal Pro volume license) and then further upgraded to 8.1 Pro when it...
How do I screenshot my C: permissions?
When I am logged in I am a member of "Administrators" only. (Computer management, Local Users and Groups, Users, Properties of my username)
There is no...
Mine seems to revert only after a reboot due to an update. (Update requiring a restart)
The thing that is a royal PITA is that when the system settings revert back to defaults it changes the...
Thanks.
No idea what is going on then. These are both Dell machines that came new with a 7-Pro COA. Per Microsoft's website and what has been posted here I should be able to go from W7-Pro to...
I don't know that I have that exact problem however W10 does seem to have a mind of its own at times. After updates it does revert back to many default settings --such as putting the Cortana icon...
I searched. I know that with XP/7/8/8.1 (and Server OS'es) changing substantial hardware would trigger a reactivation message however this was a legit (free) upgrade from 8.1 Pro x64 to 10 Pro x64. I...
Wondering... Where can I get parts, testing or diagnostic tools, etc. so that I can recover or repair a hdd? How would you go about learning how to do such a thing? Is it stupid to even be...
Its been so long since I've owned a retail machine I have no idea what an OOBE is :). Even when I do get retail/end user machines I usually replace/upgrade the HDD's or format/reinstall the OS before...
In the HP manual/documentation, does it list a password to use on the first login? Can you Google "default username and password for HP xxxxxxx laptop"?
I am confused, or your post seems confusing. Are you saying that you initially went from W8 to W10 but when you did that it installed W10 Home not Pro?
Was your initial W8 Pro edition?
You...
Thanks all for the replies. I think I wasn't explaining myself correctly but I found my answers. I stated ESXi experience so that people reading this thread would know that I have experience with...
Out of curiosity why would you do that vs. virtualize? Do you need the OS'es on bare metal for speed/performance?
+1 for running Ubuntu inside Hyper-V
I have dual monitors. When I go to Settings > System > Display and click "Identify" I get a #1 on my left monitor and a #2 on my right monitor. You want two or three single-monitor, virtual desktops?...
Maybe I stated my question incorrectly...
I am running W10x64 Pro (sorry I did not state that previously) on two machines. I am running ESXi on several other machines (unrelated Dell servers). My...
As the title says, before I install, I'm wondering if it will work at all. I tried to search and didn't find any specific requirements or list of PCs that are known to work/not work. I have several...
So the only way to play DVD's on W10 with Microsoft software is to pay for the $15 app?
W10 x64 Pro
I've tried several DVD's. They all work in my MBP and Mac Mini without issue. The DVD's are not showing up in Windows Media Player and I even tried VLC player and they didn't play. I...
