From Help: "If you're saving your backups on a hard drive or network location, Windows Backup will create a new, full backup for you automatically when needed." This indicates it is possible to save backups on a network location, but I don't see a way to specify one in Backup and Restore settings. It only shows hard drives, DVD, etc. View the thread

I cannot use the Windows 7 Remote Desktop Client to connect to my Windows 8 Pro machine using a Microsoft account. It fails as if it's a bad password. I've tried multiple formats:me@email.com email.comme email.comme@email.com pcnameme@email.com etc. Interestingly it does work using Remote Desktop Connection Manager v2.2. I really want this to work as-is no third party clients. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Jeff View the full article

I erased the audio-sound driver by accident. Just being stupid and trigger happy. Found a realtek driver (sp26731.exe) that fit the description and installed but toward the end it said I needed a Microsoft bus driver before it could complete the installation. I am lost. It is HP Pavilion Media Center a1520n Desktop PC running XP/SP3. Please help. View this thread

I had Windows 7 (retail Upgrade version, with key) running on my old computer. Just built a brand new computer, and wanted to run my windows 7 on it (and disassemble my old one). My original plan was to build everything new---except my hard drive---and I had asked the Microsoft Community before hand if I could do this. The replies were that I could, but I might need to do a repair install and then reactivate Windows (because of the hardware change). I tried that---but after numerous attempts, Windows simply wouldn't load from my former drive. By looking through the error reports, I came upon, "Root cause found: Unspecified changes to system configuration might have cause problem." Didn't know what to do at that point. So, today I purchased a new hard drive. I looked at Microsoft Support (using my laptop), and under "Reinstalling Windows 7," it said to choose the "Custom Installation" (which is, of course, a clean install). I did so, and when completed, I tried to reactivate Windows 7. I went through the procedure with a phone representative, and ended up getting the "0xC004F061" error, caused because I'm trying to use an upgrade version and didn't have Windows XP installed. So, the representative said there was nothing she could do, and hung up on me. Had I understood that I needed to have XP running, I could have installed it first---although my copy of XP is OEM because I received it when I bought a computer years ago, and so, maybe the key on that wouldn't work anymore as well? But in my present situation, I don't know how to remove Windows 7 from my (single-drive, single-boot) system to give that a try. Any suggestions? I likely can't even pay the $40 and upgrade to Windows 8, because the Windows 7 version is not activated. Linux is looking better and better... Thanks for any assistance. View the thread

This happens quite frequently and gets worse.... as I try to do streaming vidio. The system crashes and it will restart.... but I get no feed back from microsoft....even after several updated crash reports. Seems Vista gets more unstable as time wears on . Only was installed 2 months prior.... I've tried restore points to no avail. I've tried all kinds of microsoft fix it solutions...Still no help. This is a true licensed copy of Vista by Microsoft.

I have completed a reinstall of Windows XP on an Inspiron 1150. I now find that the CD/DVD drive is misbehaving. Specifically whereas the drive accepts CDs OK it refuses to recognise DVDs. What's going on? I suspect some problem with the device driver or the decoder. View this thread

I'm retiring a HP laptop with VISTA (installed at factory). Can I legally use the VISTA software to upgrade an older Inspiron laptop with XP? I'll NOT be using the HP computer anymore in the future - so the VISTA would be used on only one computer - although not the original one. View this thread
