Hi puneethGN,
Where did you get the information ?Have you checked the information in the BIOS ?
Usually we can get the information by running "MSinfo32".
Considering this is a new installation,I suggest you to upgrade the BIOS driver from the manufacturer website and install all the latest updates for the machine .
Apart from this ,we can run "sfc /scannow"to check the health of the system files .
We also can check the Event Viewer for any related error messages to troubleshoot the issue .
Best regards

I need to upgrade my version of Itunes from version 7 to version 10 or 11.
I go to Help and click on Search for Upgrades.
I then select Upgrade Itunes.
The system starts to upgrade and download the new software.
It gets to 52.60 MB of 56 MB and then it just freezes / sticks and does not go any further ?

Installing Windows 7 Enterprise on a brand new PC

Hi, this is my first post here so please be gentle.
First of all I would like to mention what a great forum and resource this website is for noobs like myself and I would immensely appreciate any help / advice.
I recently applied for a Desktop Support position and gained an interview. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful at the interview stage. One of the questions asked in the interview was "talk me through how you would install Windows 7 Enterprise
on a brand new PC".
I've previously worked as an IT Service Desk Analyst but want to get out of this call centre environment and start working out in the field instead. I've previously performed clean installs of Windows 7 Home Premium numerous laptops at home during
my spare time. However, I understand that installing Windows 7 Enterprise on a new corporate PC is somewhat quite different and there are many approaches for this. I really need advice for this approach as I have another interview lined up for Wednesday and
am sure a similar sort of question will again be asked. I will also need to know how to add a new PC to the network once Windows 7 Enterprise is installed.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

it worked
thanks
but i actually have another problem
a year ago (whenever the newest Mac OS came out), i upgraded the OS.
in the middle of installing the OS, i got error messages, and i had to restart the installation a couple times before i finally got through.
when i tried to install OS X on my new hard drive, the same error message came up.
anyone know whats wrong with my computer?
thanks for all your help by the way.

Windows 7 Enterprise is not genuine after installing new hard-drive and cloning the old one

I retired from my job as a university professor two years ago, and they let me keep my laptop computer, which is a Dell Latitude E4300 with Windows 7 Enterprise installed. I do not have any of the original disks for Windows. Recently, the hard-drive began
to fail, so I replaced it with a new one, cloning the old hard-drive onto the new one. Soon after that, a popup window began appearing saying that this computer is not running genuine windows. One important consequence of this is that I can no longer use Windows
Update, so I have concerns about security. If I go to the control panel under “System”, it says windows is activated and gives me the Product ID. I have talked to tech support at Microsoft, and they tell me something along the lines of the following: that
the problem is the new hard-drive is not recognized as being licensed to use this copy of Windows, and that I should post a question on one of the forums asking this: How can I reinstall Windows 7 Enterprise on the new hard-drive? Any assistance will be much
appreciated.
PS I have no idea which forum this should go under, so pretty much just picked one randomly.

Thank you for the reply. Below is the diagnostic report:

I need help moving my Photoshop 7 from my old laptop to my new laptop which is running Windows 7 Enterprise. I’ve tried two routes unsuccessfully. I install the CD, it does not autoplay. I execute Autoplay.exe at the root directory, I am welcomed, I choose English, I accept the EULA, I get the Install/Explore choices window, with the Install button already selected, I click the Photoshop button, the CD spins, and nothing happens. In the 2nd attempt I execute Setup.exe in the Photoshop directory, and nothing happens at all. I’m never even offered the opportunity to enter my product code. What should I do?

There could is likely a compatibility problem between the old software and the newer operating system.

it do not appear in intermedia for solaris.
So,I think it is a new bug of intermedia for windows 2000.
Welcome to talk about the bug to me!

ctxsrv is deprecated in 8.1.7 so please use ctx_ddl.index_sync() for maintaining the index.
Regarding CLOBs there is a bug with NT when the content of the CLOB contains more than 2000 chars. It should be fixed in the 8.1.7 patch release.

Try copying the QTMovieWin.dll in the c:\program files (x86)\common files\apple\apple application support folder to the c:\program files (x86)\iTunes folder. I had same problem and it's fixed this bug.

Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 2008 R2 RDS

Hello folks,
Using SRSS 4.2 / SRWC 2.2 with Sun Ray Connector Windows Components software installed on the clients.
Our test show amazing screen speed, and full 32 bit colour depth, great flash speed on Windows 2008 R2 RDS but no audio.
Our test using Windows 7 Enterprise displayed fast graphic speed, Windows Aero disabled, no audio and cannot be changed thus the user experience is not pleasant.
Anyone know when this will be addressed as it is crucial for any new deployments and upcoming desktop refreshes.
Thanks!

After talking with Sun Support, this is a known bug that is slated to get fixed in the next SRWC patch. No timeline was available for the patch.

Installing OVI Suit on Windows Vista Enterprise di...

Hy,
I have a great problem with the OVI suit installation on a Windows Vista Enterprise 32Bit.
Before i install ovi suit, there was the "Nokia PC Suit" on the PC this software is uninstalled now, and also i run the “Nokia_PC_Suite_Cleaner_7_1_1.exe“.
Also i have browsed the Support Board and Google/Bing for solutions,
But nothing of these entries can help me with this installation.
OVI Suit version is actually downloaded yesterday (3.0.0.290).
The installation stops at 1/3 of the normal run.
I have tested the installation on 3 machines like the problem PC, without a problem.
So i have no idea what i can do to run the installation to the end.
Now I have started a new try to install the OVI Suit, and deleted before all Registry-Keys.
By the way, is this really normal that the installation needs more than 120MB RAM?
So it’s 16:30 at your site next business day is Monday, i hope you have all details and can help me.
Greats from Austria

This forum is for the Microsoft Lync product.
But to answer you question try:
Navigate to Windows Control Panel, Windows Updates, Change Settings, Check the option "Give Me Updates for Microsoft Products and check for new optional Microsoft software when I update Windows".
Run the "Check for updates" again and you should be good to go.
Please mark posts as answers/helpful if it answers your question.

On Windows 7 Enterprise OS, Firefox failed to start when upgrading to any higher versions after 6.0.2

Hi
Please can you help me with this?
Currently I am running Firefox version 6.0.2 on my Windows 7 Enterprise OS Desktop.
When I try to update Firefox, installations completes successfully. However when trying to launch Firefox, browser window is not opened. It was showing a 'Firefox failed to start' error message for versions before 11. For the latest version i.e 11, no error messages are displayed. When trying to launch application, no browser window is opened, but I can see Firefox process running in Task Manager. I tried to do a clean install by removing all add-ins and also deleting Firefox folder under program files. It did not solve the problem.
Thanks

Ok, well let's try going straight to what the problem probably is, a corrupted profile.
Can you please read [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles], and create a new testing profile? Start Firefox 6 up using the new profile, then close it. After you've done that, upgrade to Firefox 11, and try starting, again using the new profile. If everything works, then you just had a corrupted profile, and you can read [[Recovering important data from an old profile|Recovering important data from an old profile]], which explains how to transfer your data from your old one to your new profile.
Let me know if this helps!

CA and Certificate Issue in ACS 4.0 For Windows 2003 Enterprise Server

Hi,
I have configured Microsoft CA server on the same ACS 4.0 for Windows 2003 enterprise server which was configured earlier using the self generated certificates for EAP and PEAP authentications.
After I change the certificate from self generated to the new CA certificate that can be viewed under install ACS certificate option on ACS server but having the following problems
1. SSL is not functioning while internet browser access to the ACS server and going through http instead of https.
2. Wireless clients are authenticated successfully even after the certificate is uninstalled.
Any help on these problems will be appreciated.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Ahmed

Hi Rohit,
Thanks for reminding the HTTPS option under Administration Control on ACS.
I have some doubts pertaining to installation of certificates on Wireless clients though it is optional for Self Generated Certificates but what in case of Mirosoft CA as I tested wireless client authentications even after removing the certificate from microsoft supplicant WindowsXP SP2 having installed the patch KB885453 for PEAP. How the certificate on wireless client works.
Is it mandatory or optional to keep certificate on Wireless Clients as they could able to get authenticated through ACS after removing the certificate.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Ahmed

Bitlocker & ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery on 64 Windows 7 Enterprise

Hi
I am attempting to setup ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 on a X300 ThinkPad with 64bit Windows 7 Enetrprise and BitLocker enabled. A installed ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 after turning on BitLocker, as stated in considerations in ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 readme file. When I press the blue ThinkVantage button and then F11, it starts ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4, but shortly after splash screen with life-belt appears the notebook restarts and BitLocker requires keyfile to continue. When I give it the key file it boots nomally. However if I restart and attempt to enter ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 again - the same story repeats, so I'm unable to use ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4. Then I disabled BitLocker encryption on boot drive, and ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 started to work normally, without touching anythnig else.
So, finally are Bitlocker & ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery 4 compatible on 64 Windows 7 Enterprise? Any one having success with this combination?
Thanks, George

Its a known bug already reported by many thinkpad users running 64bit versions of Win7,Microsoft might issue a fix.If you want to report it to them

How to Activate Windows 8.1 Enterprise with Windows 8 Enterprise MAK?

I bumped into this problem when being assigned to deal with the activation of Windows 8.1 Enterprise.
There are around 6 notebooks in my team, and they seldom connect to corporation network so are essentially isolated from our KMS server. Therefore we used to install Windows 8 Enterprise and activate these Windows 8's with an Enterprise MAK. However, These
Windows 8 are going to be upgraded to Windows 8.1 Enterprise but my team is not given the MAK of Windows 8.1 Enterprise. Hence I am going to activate the Windows 8.1 Enterprise with my existing Windows 8 Enterprise MAK.
To the best of my knowledge, there are 3 ways to upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 8.1:
Install Windows 8.1 with a Windows 8.1 DVD.
Install Windows 8 first, and upgrade to 8.1 through an Upgrade ISO.
Install Windows 8 first, and upgrade to 8.1 through Windows Marketplace.
I tried method 1 and 2 and found the Windows 8 MAK does not apply to Windows 8.1, in which slmgr -ipk would fail. Method 3 requires a full installation of all available Windows Updates first so I did not try it yet. I wonder if there is any possibility to
activate the Windows 8.1 Enterprise with a Windows 8 Enterprise MAK. Any reply would be appreciated.
By the way, my corporation do purchase the Software Assurance. I cannot get the 8.1 MAK due to management issue.

Seems like it is illegal issue if management is against upgrade ;-)
I do not think that this is a right way for Enterprise edition. New install is tyhe only option. There are some workaround on Internet, but these are not according to official upgrade path.
Every multilicense program has its program administrator that could either help or can elevate problem to MS support services.

Windows 10 Enterprise Edition: Installation and Development Environment Essentials: Thoughts & Assistance Req:

Hello,
I am in the architecture planning stage of my project and seeking personal and general good advice from Mircosoft engineers. I am laying the foundation stones of a new development product using at least three more new technologies that are
as new as Windows 10. Their are also around four or five technology partners with the latest version of their software that I wish to take onboard. Due to the sensitive nature of the project it is not wise for me to state each piece of technology used,
so I will be as accurate as possible using the limited means I have.
I wish to make a "closed" development environment, with the latest build (currently 9860), install the new software. Some of which installs fine, some of which is not compatabile with Windows 10. Regarding the latter I am in discussions with the
technology providers to make a work-around and hammer and chisel through every issue. Very soon I hope to have a fully stable working development environment which paves the road to a first prototype. So i need to make a decision soon to "lock
down" everything. I will miss Windows 10 updates but the advantage is when the project vertical slice is complete, the feedback and benefit will be larger for Windows 10 final product.
This is probably my fifth or sixth early evaluation of the Windows platform and I am aware of the highs and lows of working with various versions using new builds, from the stability of win98 (becoming 2000 - minus millennium 1999 edition), to the quick uninstall
of vista (it broke our internal projects). The solid bedrock of Windows NT (becoming XP) and so on. The good news is Windows 10 seems very good indeed.
My questions are two:
1) Would the windows team recommend a closed environment development in my situation, and are they aware of other developers doing it (is it wise from your end)? Is their a pool, can we communicate directly?
or
2) Would you recommend an open environment instead? Every install is updated, everything is all on-line and networked, this may lead to more breakages and sacrifice the finished product.
The problem with approach number 2 is that a particular technology may work with this build, but not the next one and vice versa. I will constantly be playing "bunny hop" trying to make it work.
The problem with using number 1 is that you can have a "false dawn" view of the project, meaning you have managed to get it stable and develop code that fits that environment and build, but as soon as you do update six months later, it breaks due
to feature change, it means massive re-work, ultimately breaking the product again.
I have seen these approaches drown larger projects and wash away whole development teams.
Its a tough one and a part of my R&D but very soon I need to make a decision.
To explain more, some of the technology used will be:
Windows 10 Enterprise - Perforce - Office 365 with Exchange Activ Synch - Any associated Intel CPU and GPU monitors.
In other words very stable and solid technology. Their is about an equal number of other techs that are not so stable but I am slowly getting to work under Windows 10.All feedback would be given to Microsoft, regardless of environment 1 or 2.
Any advice and help from the Microsoft Team is greatly appreciated.
Yours Kindly,
Asad

I recently went to an Enterprise Mobility Summit Microsoft was holding at one of their facilities, and they spoke a bit about the future of Windows 10 - and here's what I left with: Microsoft isn't really sure themselves what kind of updating scheme they're
going to be doing with Windows 10. They had some ideas, but they're looking for feedback from enterprises and engineers about their plan.
I don't think it was under an NDA, so I should have no problem discussing it: their idea was to have different tracks (based on the user) with different upgrade schedules based on what the administrator deems appropriate for that user. For instance,
a consumer would have their OS automatically updated as soon as the update was available. while enterprises could stagger their users to a more manageable 3-month or 6-month schedule. Microsoft wasn't sure how long to make this stagger schedule - talk
of a 1 year stagger were floated, but nothing concrete. Critical devices, like POS or ATMs, could be setup so they would never be upgraded, or only upgraded when the administrator specifically allows them to be upgraded.
For you personally, it sounds like a closed development environment is better, since you're testing critical business applications. Again, one never knows exactly what direction Microsoft will take, but with the amount of conversations and...
warnings that dropped by various people at this meeting, it's pretty safe to say that they'll be some sort of timed release schedule for enterprises that you can prepare for.
Hope that helps!
