Reinstalling PSE12 after clean install of windows 8.1

I already purchased PSE12 from this site and installed it on this PC, but I just found out that I need to reinstall windows 8.1 (to switch from 32 bit to 64 bit). Will I be able to use the same license on the computer after I reinstall, or will I need to buy a new copy of PSE?

Use Help> Sign Out before reinstalling Windows. This will deactivate the software. Be sure you're connected to the Internet when you do this.
Cheers,

How save factory software on T400 and reinstall after clean install of Windows 7

Hi
I have a Thinkpad T400 2764-CTO Running Vista Business 32-bit and want to do a clean install to Windows 7 Pro.
Sounds like I can get all the drivers via System Update 4.0, but I'm concerned about how to save/re-install some of the software that came on the machine.
In particular, Intervideo WinDVD and Roxio Media Import. If I go to my Programs folder and copy the folders for Roxio and InterVideo onto a flash drive, and then re-copy into the Programs folder on the C drive after a clean install, does that work?
I've never used Rescue and Recovery on the laptop, and am not sure how it works. Any advice is appreciated.
I'm not sure I even know all the stuff that exists from the factory. Anything else I should be concerned about? Thanks! - Kathleen

Please review the HP software and driver download page for drivers/software that are compatible with Windows 7. Also note that there is a BIOS update for Windows Vista that improves the system's ability to function with WIndows 7. Also read "Alerts" and other information regarding this product and Windows 7.

Satellite P305-S8820 - FN key not working after clean install of Windows 7

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite P305-S8820. I recently did a clean install of Windows 7. I have loaded the Toshiba value added driver pack and the trackpad driver but still cannot get the trackpad or the FN key to work.
Any ideas?

Hello John
You are like other millions other users and what you can read is relevant for you but sometimes it works a little bit different. For you it can be useless but sometimes it helps. Fact is that this utility is offered for some notebook models.
Generally speaking you are right and after VAP installation the job should be done but Ive faced the same problem in the past. Sometimes it works well and sometimes not. You will not believe me but in the past I used stuff for Satellite P300 to get all stuff working on Satellite A350. I cannot explain why this happen and it sounds crazy but it is the truth.
You can also try to play a little bit with VAP installation. Try to install VAP for A300/A350/P300. Generally speaking it is the same and if this will not work well you can remove it from the system.
Launcher for flash cards? It must be listed in MSCONFIG > startup > TcrdMain.exe

WT8-A32 missisng drivers after clean install of Windows 10

Hi, I wanted to do a full clean install of Windows 10 in my Encore WT8.So I first upgraded it to Windows 10 and then runned the installation via a USB Pen. During the installation I missed the touch screen. but I used and external Keybord+Mouse to carry on.The issue was that after finishing the installation I missed a lot of drivers. Touch, audio, ...If I try to update them via Device Manager it simply state that there are no drivers available Did anywone made a sucessfull clean install of the Win 10 in the Encore WT8-A32?Anyway of getting the drivers to be installed on a clean install of Windows 10? I tired to install some drivers from the 8.1 version but it complained it was not compatible. Thanks

I tired to install some drivers from the 8.1 version but it complained it was not compatible. My notes about a clean install are in another thread, but you have done 99% of what you need.Just grab the 'intel platform installer' and run it. This will give you a functioning touch screen.The version I used was win8.1 vintage and works without a problem.

Fingerprint Driver Install after clean install of Windows 7

I've performed a clean install of Windows 7 on my X300 (6476CTO). I downloaded and installed the Fingerprint Driver 5.9.2 for Windows 7 32-bit (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-73583). However, everytime I reboot I get a message that the Fingerprint Reader cannot access dll file vtapip.dll and the fingerprint registration fails. What can I do to remedy this problem?
I did notice on the readme that machines running less than the 5.6 version of the fingerprint software should upgrade to 5.6.2 before installing newer versions. Does this include clean installs? If so, where can I get the 5.6.2 driver? I cannot currently locate it.
Thanks,
Mindy

I have searched for A200 and A210 in the Toshiba sections of Equium, Satego, Satellite and Satellite Pro but their are no Flash card support utility. In the details of the "Value added package" are the words:
"TOSHIBA Flash Cards provides the Hotkey function and the launcher function that starts the Hotkey function and launches the other TOSHIBA utilities"
So I think it's useless to search for this utility. It's more important for me to know which files (like name of the launcher program) must be started to use the FN keys.

Can I use the same serial number for master suite when reinstalling after clean install of windows 8

I am reinstalling windows because windows got corupted. I can not access my computer to deactivate the software. Do I need to be worried about not having deactivated it? I will be reinstalling mastersuite 6 after I get windows 8.1 clean installed on the same computer. I just want to make sure I will not have any problems reinstalling and setting up the adobe mastersuite after I have installed windows 8.1. I don't want to have a problem with the serial number still being registered to my old installation of windows that will have been on the same pc.
Thanks for your help!

Your previous activation will still be in the loop, so you should contact Adobe support and ask them to reset your activations. That way you can be sure you have the two your license allows for. You can always skip this if you only activated once before but it will leave you with no extra activation should you find a use for a second installation.

Power settings missing after clean install of Windows 8.1 on Helix

After a smooth clean installation of Windows 8.1 and loading all the Lenovo drivers, software, and apps, the system runs extremely well except in the Lenovo Settings Metro App, I no longer see the option of battery life protection (to charge only up to 50%). In addition, in the Windows power settings, there are only four power profiles: high performance, balances, power saver, and fly mode. I do have Lenovo Power Management Driver and Settings Dependency Packages installed. Lenovo's System Update does not show any missing installations. I wonder if anyone can give me some clues. Thanks.
Solved!

The battery health mode setting was removed. We don't support this setting anymore.
The preload comes with a couple additional power profiles that we don't make available except in the preload. However they are not anything special. You can create your own power profile(s) in the Power control panel to do whatever you want them to do - idle timers, CPU speed, etc.
I accepted the answer as a solution, but I frankly think the battery health mode is very important to have.
My T400s, with both the main and ultra-bay batteries, started with about 6:30 hours of battery life (of course, under my typical work load). 4 years later as today, it still has about 4:30 hours. If I kill some processes and use IE instead of Chrome, I can get 5 hours. I think the long battery lifes have been a consequence of the setting of no start of charging until below 85%.
To replace either battery in Helix, a lot of effort is needed. I think it makes a lot of sense to keep them health.

Accept button instead of Install button when trying to reinstall iPhoto after Clean install

Hi All,
I recentely did a clean install for my Lion OS.
Everything works fine, except iPhoto was missing.
I opened the App Store app on the mac, and was able to successfully update GarageBand and iMove.
However, it didn't give me the option to update iPhoto as it did when I opened the mac out of the box.
I then went to the iPhoto page, and instead of "install" button I now have an "Accept" button.
When pressing on the accept button, I get the following error message:
"These apps have already been accepted.
"These apps were already assigned to your Apple ID and are available in your Purchases list."
iPhoto is neither present on the Purchases list nor in the update tab.
Will apprecaite suggestions.
Thank you

Hi Caroloine,
Thank you for your response.
I already have the 10.7.2 update. Doesn't help.
Also, the link you specifited is about downloading past purchases from iTunes Store, or the iPhone/iPad App store. I am trying to downloading iPhoto for the Mac from the Mac App Store (the App Store that is installed on the dock). I don't think it is the same stores.
After your suggestion though, just to be sure, I tried to seach iPhoto (for Lion) on the iTunes Store, but I don't think you can buy it there. It just give you iPhono/iPad results when searching for iPhoto, and I couldn't find iPhoto in any preveriously purchased list on itunes.
Any other suggestions?

Touch doesn't work after clean install of Windows 7 Professional

I have an IQ526t. I did a clean install (remove drive/repartition/format drive) of Windows 7 Professional, and now the touchscreen feature doesn't work. I've been on forums here and at Mirosoft, downloaded various drivers, rebooted multiple times, etc....no luck. I get the sound, but no response. Thoughts???

Hello bmarkj,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that you have removed the recovery drive and installed Windows 7 by not using the OEM version that came with your computer. You have a couple options here, first you can download and install the HP Support Assistant and let it download and install the software and drivers that came with your computer. You can alter the settings so that the updates are manually done giving you control over what gets updated and what does not. Or you can download and install the drivers and what software you want from HP TouchSmart IQ526t CTO Desktop PC Drivers page. The choice is yours.
***NOTE: Be warned that there is software that come with some of the computers that is ONLY available from the recovery drive so you may not see everything you are used to seeing. The only way of recoverying this software is through the HP Recovery Discs.
I hope I have addressed your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Hi Ryan!
Welcome to the forum. Please post a picture of device manager. That will give a much better idea of what's missing.
It is always best to install drivers in the following order. Chipset, Audio, Video, Ethernet, Energy Management and then the rest.

Re: Satellite P305-S8820 - FN key not working after clean install of Windows 7

I have a problem with a Satellite A210-103. After installation of Toshiba Value Added Package (Flash Cards Support Utility not available for A210), reboot, restarting Toshiba Flash Cards and pressing the FN key several times the problem still exists.
It must have other reasons why so many user have problems with the FN keys.

After doing a clean install of Windows 10

I am worried that if I do a clean install of Windows 10, I won't be able to re-install the pre-installed apps that were on the laptop when I purchased it. Afterward, will it still register as a Toshiba and allow me to re-install any/all of their programming? Thank you!

Clean install of Windows 7 Pro or Enterprise creates update issues on Pavilion G6 notebooks

Hello,
Our small company has 5 older HP Pavilion g6 notebooks running Window 7 Home edition. We wanted to make them, and a few other Acer laptops, part of our domain. So, we did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro (you can't upgrade with a volume license key). After the install, the HP laptops have windows update issues and currupt installs. The Acer laptops installed with no issues. I've tried installing the Enterprise version with the same results. I tried installing from dvd and usb, both with the same results. Any idea?
Thank You

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. It seems to be kinda stable now. Updates would never work from the getgo. I had to reinstall update agent a few times and run the update troubleshooter found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/windows-update-issues/en-us Until I got it working, I used Autopatcher to install updates. However, the computer isn't stable enough though to allow someone to use it for work. I don't recommend doing a clean install on these machines.

SSD Cache Not Working U840 after Clean Install Intel Smart Response Technology

Hello, I completed a clean install of Windows 8 on my ultrabook model U840 (Core i3, 16GB SSD). I would appreciate any advice to get the SSD to use the Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT) for SSD Cache.
I used the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) driver during install and after installing Windows 8 but I do not recieve the option to Accelerate the SSD drive. I followed the instructions and links contained in this Toshiba Forum post: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=277914
The computer is supported for Windows 8 upgrade and clean install drivers are available at Toshiba: http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows8/drivers_cae.htm
The BIOS is set to default for the drives (Performance). Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I urge you to at least read my post in the other Toshiba forum for a fuller grasp and overview, but I have also attached the two Intel website and PDF links for you.
Keep in mind that there are seemingly two types or Intel Rapid Cache type options. Follow the instructions in the intel link and one of them will work for you. (I hope it does work for you because i know how frustrating this issue is)

After I installed the windows 8.1 update, podcasts and music won't play

After I installed the windows 8.1 update, itunes stopped playing. When I try to play, it brings up the song but stays at 0:00. My subscribed podcasts still download but they all stay at 0:00 too. I can click on a later point in the song/podcast and it moves to that point but just stays there as if it is paused but indicating it is playing in the controls.
I have unistalled/reinstalled itunes and have the same problem.

Hi there Juniorm1,
Take a look at the article for the current version of iTunes for Windows.
