  • Hello Bobnnanny,

    "After having the system cleaned...."

    It looks like the person or shop that "cleaned" the system installed a nongenuine installation of Windows XP Pro onto your Compaq Presario R4100 computer.  The also installed a Volume Licensing edition of Office Professional 2003 onto the computer, and if your use of this Volume License for Office is not in association with the organization that legitimately holds the license to use this copy of Office, then your use of this Volume Licensed copy of Office is nongenuine.

    IMO your best option is to order a set of recovery discs directly from Compaq and use them to install the original properly licensed copy of Windows XP Home Edition back onto the computer.  Your Compaq Product number (EC383UA#ABL) leads to this ordering page at Compaq's support site:  https://warp2.external.hp.com/driver/dr_country_select.asp?Product=438968-001&lang=en&cc=us

    Genuine copies of Office can be purchased for as little as $79-89 (Office Home and Student 2007 which is allowed to be installed on up to three computers) on sale at major office suppy and consumer electronics retailers.  Or you can try the open source free alternatives to Office, too.  Or if you're a little bit adventurous (because Beta software can be buggy), try the Office 2010 Beta for free here:  http://www.microsoft.com/office/2010/en/download-office-professional-plus/default.aspx

    You might want to return to the shop or repair person and discuss a refund...:-)

  • Hello Bobnnanny,

    IMO the laptop is underpowered for running Windows 7:  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00500909&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=1149390

    The computer should continue to run XP fine, though.  A fresh installation from the manufacturer's recovery discs will run very nicely, expecially if some of the typical shovelware is uninstalled.

    For more info on upgrading to Windows 7 (which is off topic to this WGA forum) see the Install, Upgrade and Activate forum here:  http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx

  • Thanks. I'm trying to sort through this mess with my Sister-in-law and her husband. I'm going to have a little talk with the guy they got to "fix" things. In the meantime, I figure I'd just get them to upgrade to Win 7 and office 2007. Any comments/suggestions in that regard? Unfortunately, they decided they didn't need to keep their installation CD's so Upgrade is likely not going to be possible, right?
