Help me find a Windows OS

Hi, so after I spent $50 on Craigslist buying the WRONG Windows OS system, I am hoping someone can help me find a Windows OS system to put onto my computer. I just need it to run quickbooks and my merchant account with Quickbooks...that's it.
So, I just need something basic and cheap! I would be very greatful if someone could find me a link to the exact software I need so I am not out more money trying to figure this out.

Rachel:
Which WRONG version of windows did you buy? I am just curious.
I recommend getting (clink on the following link) *[_Windows XP SP2 Home Edition OEM_|http://www.compusa.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=255 2182&csid=ITD&body=QA#tabs]* for *$89.99*. Keep in mind that this is an OEM version and therefore the price is low. It will install and work fine with Boot Camp. The only drawback is that this version, once installed on a computer, can only be activated on the same computer it was first installed on. It is not transferable from computer to computer.
If you feel that you will need to transfer the installation of Windows to another computer at some point then you will need *[_This Version_|http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6709047&st=Windows+XP&lp =2&type=product&cp=1&id=1083713449003]* for *$199*. This version is transferable from one computer to another however it must only exist on any ONE computer and NOT multiple computers.

    Hi,
    Please don't disclose any product key information in here. This is public and open place to discuss Windows 7 problem. It's dangerous for any personal information.
    Also, since the Windows is brought with OEM computer, maybe you could try to contact the manufacturer for help.

    I'm not aware of any, not to say that there aren't any issues.
    it may have nothing to do with ntpd, there are a lot of things running.
    ntpd just happen to make the log entry at the same time as the panic.
    I would check to see if there are any updates available for you system.
    if this is the first time that this has happened. it may be (pick one):
    cosmic rays
    sun spots
    the trilateral commission
    if this happens more frequently and that traces look the same, then
    there may be a real problem that needs to be looked into further.

    despite the workaround, it doesn't fix the real problem. It shouldn't be a huge deal for adobe to add support for multiple svn versions. Dreamweaver is the first tool i've used that works with svn that doesn't support several types of svn meta data. If they're going to claim that Dreamweaver supports svn is should actually support svn, the current version, not a version several years old. This should have been among the first patches released, or at least after snow leopard came out (and packaged with it the current version of svn).
    does anyone know if the code that handles meta data formatting is something that is human readable, or where it might be, or is it in compiled code.
    i signed up for the forums, for the sole purpose of being able to vent about this very frustrating and disappointing situation.

  • HP DV6 Laptop - How do I find my Windows 7 Product Key

    Model:  DV6-1149WM
    Product:  LW264UAR#ABA
    I purchased a new hard drive for my laptop.  I want to install a clean version of Windows 7 on this hard drive.  The Windows product key sticker is badly worn on the bottom of my laptop and I can only make out a little more than half the characters on it.  Where can I find the Windows 7 product key?  I tried to use an app to find it but it only finds a generic key since it was an OEM install.  Can you please tell me how I can find my product key?  I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 on my new hard drive so I don't want to install it from any kind of recovery disk.  Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Find & Replace window missing in Toolkit CS5

    Hello--
    I just started using Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit CS5 after installing Photoshop CS5, and ran into a strange problem: the Find & Replace menu option and key command do not function correctly, in that I cannot access Find at all.  The Find / Find Results window does not appear, and I cannot get the window to appear by selecting the option in the Windows tool menu either. This works just fine in Toolkit CS4, and is very frustrating to deal with as I am trying to update my scripts to CS5, but have to do so in the CS4 Toolkit because I can't use the Find functionality.
    I've already searched the forums and google high and low for this problem, but no else seems to have posted about it. I've already tried restarting and uninstalling / installing CS5 and all related tools. Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Thanks! Looking in the preferences led me to the answer to the problem: I opened up the XML file and found that findAndReplace was put in an odd TabPane for some reason:
            <TabGroup5>
              <activeChild>findAndReplace</activeChild>
              <parentName>Tabpane13</parentName>
              <visible>false</visible>
            </TabGroup5>
    I changed the parentName to Tabpane0 and the window appears now. Much obliged!

  • Error when trying to install the iSCSI target - Cannot find the Windows PowerShell data file 'ImportExportIscsiTargetConfiguration.psd1'

    Hi,
    I'm just attempting to setup an iSCSI target on a freshly installed Windows 2012r2 box, but I get the following error when attempting to Create and iSCSI virtual disk via the wizard after a successful
    installation of the iSCSI target role.
    The full error is:
    Cannot find the Windows PowerShell data file 'ImportExportIscsiTargetConfiguration.psd1' in directory 'C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\IscsiTarget\en-GB\', or in any parent culture.
    I tried to uninstall, then reinstall the role but no go.
    The Server Locale and UI was all updated to en-GB but this folder does not appear to exist in this location. Rather, the folder I can see is:
    'C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\IscsiTarget\en-US\'
    I'm going to attempt to copy the 'en-US' folder to 'en-GB' to see what happens, but I would like to know why this has occurred in the first place? Other roles have installed (such as AD DS AD CS and
    IIS) on other machines with no issue.
    Many thanks
    Chris
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    The error "Cannot find the Windows PowerShell data file 'ImportExportIscsiTargetConfiguration.psd1'" occured, because the file 'ImportExportIscsiTargetConfiguration.psd1' can't be loaded under the folder en-GB with current culture.
    I recommend you can copy this .psd1 file under  'C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\IscsiTarget'. Essentially if PowerShell can’t find the specified data file for the current culture it will “fallback” to the top-level data
    file in this case.
    For more detailed information, please refer to this article:
    Windows PowerShell 2.0 String Localization
    If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.

  • Find/Change window freezes - Appleworks 6.2.9

    When I use the Appleworks Find/Change window for the first time after booting up my new iMac, the Find/Change window freezes up and then disappears and then the opened document on my desktop disappears from my desktop, too. I have Appleworks 6.2.9 and a new iMac purchased a few months ago. Why does the Find/Change window freeze up and do that? How do I fix this? Thanks for any help!

    The most likely cause is corrupt preferences & is easily fixed by deleting the AppleWorks preferences.

  • Can someone help me find some missing features?

    There are quite a few features that I am unable to find in Leopard. Can someone please help figure out where they went or how to work around the following:
    In iCal you can no longer open the Info Drawer to allow you to see the details of your events as you click through them.
    Previously it only required one click to view Event info and 2 clicks to make an edit.
    Now it takes 2 clicks to see info which pops up a window with the details in it.
    Furthermore it takes 4 clicks to make an edit. 2 clicks (double click) to open the popup window, one click on the Edit button then a click on the item you want to edit. Plus one more to get rid of the info window. It only took 2 clicks in the Tiger version.
    Or you can press the Escape key after you make an edit which commits the edit. Doesn't the Escape key usually mean Cancel? It does everywhere else I've ever used it.
    Also:
    Classic
    Dock - position top
    Dock - hierarchical menus for folders
    Finder - draggable window edges
    Finder - collapsible sidebar
    Finder - change permissions of your own files without admin privileges
    Finder - set the current folder as the default search location
    Finder - use "Spacebar" to select the first alphabetical item in any window
    Finder - set the current folder as the default search location
    General - choice of colour for Apple menu icon (useful for flagging "root")
    General - Ctrl-Eject Restart/Sleep/Shutdown dialogue (now only "Sleep" and "Cancel")
    General - default high contrast menubar suitable for visually challenged
    rc.shutdown - though there's probably an equivalent I haven't figured out yet
    Netinfo Manager - There is no equivalent GUI App to perform the tasks that Netinfo Manger used to

    Gone. Mac OS 9 has been dead for quite some time; Apple just got around to burying the corpse. If you need Mac OS 9, use SheepShaver.

    Still a hack.
    Dock - hierarchical menus for folders
    Gone, sadly. Hopefully they'll bring this back in a later update.
    Finder - draggable window edges
    The top and bottom bars are still draggable. Left-side and right-side window borders have been removed throughout Mac OS X.
    Finder - collapsible sidebar
    You can click on the little pill in the top-right corner.
    Finder - change permissions of your own files without admin privileges
    Finder - set the current folder as the default search location

    I didn't even know that existed. Regardless, space bar is now bound to Quick Look, so unless you can change it in System Preferences's keyboard section, you might be out of luck.
    Finder - set the current folder as the default search location
    It's in the Search bar, when you start a search. It's displayed in quotes. (This should really be the default, IMO.)
    General - choice of colour for Apple menu icon (useful for flagging "root")
    This has never existed in Mac OS X.
    General - Ctrl-Eject Restart/Sleep/Shutdown dialogue (now only "Sleep" and "Cancel")
    I got all four options when I tried it just now.
    General - default high contrast menubar suitable for visually challenged
    Not sure about this one.
    rc.shutdown - though there's probably an equivalent I haven't figured out yet

    NetInfo has been removed from 10.5 (probably to achieve the UNIX 03 certification; good riddance, I say). A few features have GUI replacements in Directory Utility, but the rest have been delegated to Directory Services. You'll have to use the Terminal to access most of DS.
