<0> does a formatting of the hard drive ensure that all the data on it is completely deleted?
<1> evening chalcedony

<2> disproportio: not i, sorry
<1> i removed my old Win XP installation from my laptop
<1> then i reinstalled it again using the reinstallation CD that comes along woth the laptop when i bought it
<1> when i input the old registration key, it says it is an invalid number. how come>
<1> ?
<0> chalcedony: after the formatting i installed windows on it. but the space occupied was far less than what it was when the drive was formatted.

<3> Hmm
<3> Http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us
<3> Try the key there ...
<3> If not working ...
<3> Try to contact microsoft
<3> -
<3> This is my IDEA :)
<2> hehe
<2> we hope they answer
<3> Or CALL them
<3> Or go to a microsoft partener

<3> Maybe this will work ...
<3> If it works to install windows and doesn't work to activate the product ...
<3> Disproportio still sleeping !?
<1> hi Vir2k
<1> lol no
<3> :)
<3> Finaly:P
<1> i did not tell the whole picture
<3> Tell me more about your problem ?
<1> my laptop was shipped to me with win XP installed
<3> Ok, but the XP pack must be untouched when you got it.
<1> then i removed it last week, replacing the primary OS with Ubuntu
<1> i run VMware
<1> it allows me to run WindowsXP from within Ubuntu (or any other OS for that matter)
<3> Hm
<3> If it lets you to run XP
<3> Just check the serial
<1> so i install winXP in Ubuntu
<3> Http://www.soft-ware.net/system/steuerung/tools/download.asp?code=bfcdi&pro=p04396&js=true&flvers=2&lang=en-us&alt=false&sw=1152&sh=864&br=Netscape&vers=5
<1> yes i check the serial. it corresponds with the product key that Dell gave me
<3> And ? what's the problem than !?
<1> well the installation prompts me to input the key
<3> Yes
<1> so i did.. but it says it is not valid...
<3> You check if you put it corectly ?!
<1> yes
<1> like 3 times now
<3> You had 25 characters wrotten ?
<3> Just call your dealer , or microsoft ( http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/?ws=mscom ) ...
<1> yes
<3> You can't do it without support from the producer...
<3> I can't give you a good reason ...
<1> yeah, my producer happens to be Dell.. and their support ****s
<3> If it don't work and it's written corectly ... don't really know what happend.
<1> well thanks anyway Vir
<3> You're welcome
<3> Try microsoft
<1> i just thought now that maybe some spy software within XP checks whether the installation is the primary installation
<1> or the it recognizes a different computer
<1> the=that
<3> Heh ... i don't think so.
<3> Could be a reason
<3> But you can't do anything ...
<1> yeah
<3> You really need microsoft support
<1> hmm
<3> Or a microsoft dealer from your city
<1> ok. i'll try that
<3> Oke, good luck

<16> hi guys! Do you know if I can connect my laptop to my stationary in a simple way with one cable so I do have to plug-unplug monitor , keyboard etc if I want to swtich between working on the computers ?
<17> Mstr get a KVM switch box
<17> upps
<16> is that a hardware thing?
<16> so I cant get away with one cable only, as in using the laptop as an "external HD" ?
<17> <16> hi guys! Do you know if I can connect my laptop to my stationary <-- u mean a docking station?
<17> cable like cat5 network cable?
<16> for example,
<17> r u saying u wanna switch between 2 monitors, KB, and mouse?
<16> or a serial , or a USB or so
<16> I want to use my stationary KB mouse, monitor with my laptop as a HD
<17> u want to use ur stationary keyboard, mouse to your laptop as a Hard Drive?
<16> yes, and then switch to my stationary without connecting/disconnecting all those cables
<16> do I make any sense?
<17> if im right, u want ur laptop to be able to switch between first set of monitor/KB/Mouse and 2nd set of monitor/KB/mouse?
