The computer seems to lag or stop after about 3 to 5 minutes. How do I run it in safe mode and should I get rid of Windows 10 back to 7 as 10 seems messy and hard to use.

Need valid Windows 7 Product ID

$

Hi,

 

I purchased my HP ProDesk 600 G2 not long ago and it came with both Windows 7 and Windows 10 DVDs. I prefer Linux as my primary OS so that is what is on it now. However I would like to run Windows 7 in VMware Player from Linux. 

 

I installed VMware Player and then installed Windows 7 into a VM using the DVD that came with my PC, however,  in the Windows Activation section it says I need a valid product key. I do not see one on the Desktop unit itself, nor can I find one on the media I received.

 

Where can I get the Windows Product ID for my PC? 

 

My Product No is P5U73UT#ABA

My Serial No is [Personal Information Removed]

 

Thanks,

Greg

H8-1240T Pavilion Upgrade from Win7 to Win10 Went Smoothly

I wanted to let the H8-1240T owners to know that my upgrade from 64-bit Windows 7 Pro to 64-bit Windows 10  Pro went very smoothly last week (June 21, 2016). I had difficulty finding reports about the upgrade so I thought I would add info here. Hope this is helpful. Of course periferals needed to have updated drivers (ie; mouse, printer, scanner) but all are optimal again. I have 10GB of RAM on this computer. Also, Win10 has a lot of new Apps that need to be turned off if you are not using which helps optimize performance. System is running VERY well with Win10. I recommend the upgrade for those who - like myself - have waited til the last minute. Remember, you only have until the end of July 2016 to get Win10 for free. Good luck!

I am trying to download the BIOS update for my HP Proliant ML110 G3 server which is running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 but for some reason there is only one website which allows me to see the new version which is: http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=501876&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=1113

but for some reason it needs entitlement so i cannot download as i have no warranty. It would be a huge help if someone has entitlement to download it for me or if someone already has the file. Just select Windows 2003, i really need this update thanks!
