Can't complete windows xp qt registration

Can't get my QT license code to stick. I goto the QT Preferences panel from the XP control panel, enter the name and code as specifid and hit apply, then get the "Quicktime 7 Pro" as the help describes - so registration should have been sucessful. But when I open quicktime the PRO options are greyed out and it wants me to buy. When I reopen/access the QT Preferences window the name and code are gone. When I hit return after entering the coee it "thinks about it" for a few seconds then closes (but the pro options are still greyed out when I open a QT player). Yes I did buy a QT 7 Pro for windows license.
Am running Windows XP Pro service pack 2 with Administrator rights. I've untinstalled and reinstalled QT a couple of times, but no joy.
Sorry if this is an already covered subject, looked through 10 pages before asking. Didn't find any info online either.
Pretty please help!!

Did you try using the WD utility tools cd to partiton/format the raptor?  That might help.
Also a number of people have had problems installing Windows on small capacity HDD's (80 to 160gb).  I never was able to get it to work with an 80gb Caviar.  I swapped it for a 200gb Maxtor and Windows installed just fine.  Others seem to be able to use raptors just fine.
Here is a procedue that has often worked for others.
1.  Have only the SATA and one optical drive in the system.  No other HDD's or opticals.
2.  Attached the HDD to SATA 1 port on the MB, enable that port in BIOS, and made sure that other SATA settings in BIOS were also set up as appropriate.  I did not have any thing enabled in the RAID section of BIOS. I set Boot Priority to the SATA drive, and boot order to floppy, CD and Hard Drive.  Have the optical drive connected to IDE 2 as master.
3.  I used the Maxtor Maxblast utility CD to set up a partition on the drive and also had Maxblast format it.
4.  Then I ran Windows setup ignoring the F6 prompt since I was not configuring a RAID array.  Windows installed just fine.
5.  After I was sure Windows was running fine, I shut down the computer and then reconnected the power to my other HDD's and opticals and restarted.  Everything was fine.
This sequence was first elaborated by Syar2003, with minor modifications by me.
If you try it let us know if it worked for you too.

  • Can't complete windows installation - Stuck at Press any key to boot from..

    I am unable to install windows xp service pack 3 or windows 7 on to my iMac running latest boot camp installer. I can start the installation process, but when windows installer completes copying all the files on to the boot camp partition and reboots the system I get stuck at this message "PRESS ANY KEY TO BOOT FROM A CD OR DVD", which won't go away even if I wait for 10-15 minutes. To get rid of this I have to hard reset the iMac by pressing the power button for a few seconds and then boot into Mac HD using the option key.
    Please advise if I need to tweak some settings to complete the installation or if you need more information to resolve this issue. Thanks!

    I was able to complete the installation process by formatting the windows bootcamp partition through windows installer (and not using Mac disk utility to format the partition into NTFS format). Hope this helps someone.

  • Can't complete Windows 7 installation - mouse and keyboard wont work

    I'm trying to install Windows 7 on my new iMac and am running in to a problem. I have the comprehensive instructions document printed, and am following it. I've created the partition for Windows using Boot Camp Assistant, I've inserted the Windows CD and selected Start Installation in Boot Camp. The computer restarts and loads up from the Windows CD. All good so far. It loads some Windows files and then the installation options pop up asking me to select language, country etc. Its here that I get stuck, as my iMac's wireless keyboard and magic mouse have stopped responding.
    I thought I must have missed something and have reread the instructions, but there's no mention of the iMac's peripherals not working during the Windows installation. What am I to do? I don't have any other USB mice or keyboards to hand if that's the solution.

    Just a follow up question on this - does the size of the partition have to just be enough for the windows installation itself, or for all programmes you would want to install to run under Windows?
    I've set the partition size at 32gb for a windows 7 installation, but im thinking if it has to be big enough for my games collection i'll need to start over the partition 50/50.

    I'm using a MacbookPro so can't right click to highlight (as was suggested in this forum for the same problem) and can't seem to highlight that area. What do I do?

    When using the Clip Trimmer, you click DONE to indocate that you are finished.
    The Trim To Selection is a great tool and I use it all the time, but you use it in the main project timeline, not the clip trimmer. Just select the frames you want so that the yellow border is around them. Then right-click and select Trim to Selection.

    Let me rephrase in question.
    locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/88761 - please edit your original question instead of starting a new thread <br/>|<br/>
    I installed Firefox 6.0.2 on a Windows Server 2003 box. This box is a terminal server with 9 users that are going to use Firefox. The other users are going to use IE. When asked to reboot now or later, I chose Later. After sometime I rebooted, the message "you need to reboot in order to complete the install" reappears. Over and over again. Can not uninstall (same message) Can not open Firefox (same message) Many reboots using various users, the same results.
    Help!

    The question appears to relate more to the OS than be a firefox problem, but as I have never used Windows Server 2003, I am unable to help.

  • How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?

    How can I completely remove iTunes and all associated files/programs from my Windows PC?

    iTunes, along with Quick Time, iCloud, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support and Apple Application Support can all be removed from your PC by uninstalling them using 'Uninstall or change a program' in Control Panel. The only obvious thing that will be left behind is your iTunes library which remains untouched. If you want to remove that as well it's just a question of deleting it.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I install windows 8 on a mac without superdrive?

    Hi there.
    I have an old Macbook pro (early 2007) which is still quite good, except from the superdrive which got broken.
    I would like to completely wipe out OSX (Lion) from that and install Windows 8 instead.
    Problem is, I cannot install it from optical drive, since it's broken (and plus, I don't have access to an external drive).
    Is it even possible to install windows 8 from USB on this computer? If so, what should I do?
    Thank you!

    You can only install Windows from an external disc drive or an USB drive in one of these computers:
    - MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    - MacBook Air.
    - iMac (Late 2012).
    - Mac mini (Mid 2010 and newer).
    As you don't have any of these computers, you need the SuperDrive to install Windows 8. In your case, you have to install a SuperDrive in your MacBook Pro in order to install Windows by using Boot Camp
