Frequently Asked Questions
There are several places for students to chill out between classes, catch up with friends, or to squeeze in a little studying. The Student Center has places to study quietly, eat lunch, sneak in a nap, or rent a computer. Memorial Union is a little more casual and also has a Starbucks. Ellis Library has study rooms that can be rented, lots of seating and tons of computers (both Mac and PC). There is also a café with coffee and some snacks in the basement. Some colleges have specific study areas for their students to study in, like the School of Journalism. All of these are great options to hang out in and almost every student takes advantage of each of them at some point during their time at Mizzou. If you choose to live in a residence hall your options for dining are increased to include ten dining plan locations, with options such as all-you-can-eat, take-out, late night dining. There are plenty of options to socialize in one of the multiple lounges (complete with comfy couches and flat screen TVs) as well as study with a group or on your own in one of multiple study rooms that each residence hall provides.
Freshmen are required to live on campus. National research shows that students who live in residence halls are more successful. We know from our own data that students who live in our halls are more likely to stay in school and graduate in four years than students who do not.
The Department of Residential Life offers traditional, community-style singles, doubles and suites. Room rates include utilities, internet, cable, unlimited laundry, cleaning services and 24/7 security. Living on campus puts you conveniently close to your classes, campus activities and job opportunities.
Campus housing is affordable, comfortable and secure. What's more, when you live on campus, you belong to a living, learning community, with the resources you need to succeed. Learn more about housing for incoming freshmen at Mizzou.

Students looking for a job on campus can get one by either qualifying for a work study position or through a regular application process. Most positions require a commitment of around 10-12 hours a week. Mizzou's Career Center offers information on both work study positions and other jobs available on campus. There are also part-time job fairs held on campus regularly that have information on other jobs available throughout Columbia, and students/alumni can create a profile and browse job openings at www.hiremizzoutigers.com.

It has a little something for everyone, and it is easy to make Columbia feel like home. You can take a run on the Katy Trail, meet your friends for dinner on a patio at one of your favorite restaurants downtown, and enjoy a delicious dessert at one of Columbia's delicious bakeries or ice cream shops. It is also home to multiple regionally know festivals, like Roots-N-Blues Jazz Festival and True/False Film festival. Columbia has even been ranked by livability.com as one of the best college towns to live in. Check out Wellness Resource Center's website to "get to know Como."
Students wanting to participate in formal recruitment must sign up online early in the summer. Fraternity recruitment happens mid-summer, and sorority recruitment happens right before classes start. Sororities and fraternities both also have informal recruitment, so students who do not participate in formal recruitment may still have an opportunity to join later on in the semester. Students are encouraged to participate in recruitment even if they are not planning on joining a greek organization. It can be an amazing opportunity to meet new people and connect with other students on campus. Learn more about Fraternity & Sorority Life here.
There is, quite literally, any number of ways to get involved on campus. One great way to start navigating all of the organizations on campus is to sign up for a consultation with an Involvement Ambassador. They can help you find organizations that meet your interests and can connect you with tons resources or events. You can also go to OrgSync, where there is information on the 750+ organizations on campus. Getting involved can increase the quality of your experience at Mizzou and help you find a community on campus that you can invest in.
Mizzou's history is filled with traditions that have developed over the nearly 200 years that Mizzou has been in existence. The Mizzou Alumni Association's website has a list and explanation of many of the traditions on campus and a history of the university. One of the most important traditions for new students is the TigerWalk, where new students symbolize their entrance into Mizzou and walk through the Columns toward Jesse Hall. This is always the last Sunday before classes begin.
Most sporting events are free for students with a student ID. Students are always more than welcome to attend events to support their teams and watch some amazing athletes compete in your favorite sports. The only sports that students have to buy tickets for are football games and basketball games. Tickets can be purchased at Mizzou's official athletic website and are bought in packages prior to the season beginning. There are two sets of packages: the football package and the football and basketball combo package. The football and basketball combo is the only way to have a guaranteed access to all of the basketball games; however that doesn't mean you will definitely get to go to each game. Basketball tickets are released in groups, and students with the combo have the opportunity to wait in line to get a grouping of tickets. The only way students can be guaranteed tickets to all of the basketball games is to be one of the first 500 people to sign up for ZouCrew, which is a group of students that get special seating at games and a free t-shirt to wear to the games. You can find more information on ZouCrew and Tiger's Lair (the football version of ZouCrew).
Don't ask us. Just ask Sports Illustrated and Greatest.com, who ranked Mizzou's rec center as the best recreation center in the entire country. Take a dip in Truman's Pond, get jacked in the Pump Room, or sweat it out in the sauna at the Tiger Grotto. Mizzou's nationally ranked rec center will likely have everything you could hope for at a gym and more. It is open to all students through their students fees, but students also have the opportunity to sign up for a TigerX pass that gets you access to dozens of weekly classes that are happening almost all day. Check out the schedule and other ways to take advantage of all the Rec has to offer.
Students can explore basic information about all undergraduate MU degree programs and search by School/College, Interest Areas, and Career Paths at majors.missouri.edu. You can read through a list of the Colleges and Schools at Mizzou. You can also see all of the undergraduate majors and minors, and a catalog of the undergraduate classes offered for this current year. Almost all of the colleges, schools and programs at Mizzou have their own website with more specific information for students currently enrolled in the program or students considering joining the program. Those can be found by searching "Mizzou" and the program you want to look into.
New students register for classes during a scheduled meeting with their advisor at orientation. Students are not required to attend one of the orientation programs, but it is highly recommended and is the only time new students can register for classes before school begins. Orientation programs are held throughout the summer, during August right before school starts, and during the winter break for students starting in the spring semester. To learn about and sign up for Summer Welcome, August Orientation, and Winter Welcome visit the orientation portion of this website.
Mizzou's Financial Aid Office is the one stop shop for all information on financial aid at Mizzou. Students who hope to receive financial aid must fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). A link to the application can also be found at the Financial Aid Office Website.
Many students buy their books through the Mizzou Store. Students can pre-order your books so they are ready for you when school starts. The Mizzou Store's website also offers a price comparison for all of the major online book stores, like Amazon, but many times the Mizzou Store offers the cheapest price.

Javadekar asks IIM chiefs for plan to increase students intake
Union Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar on Tuesday asked the Directors and Chairmen of 20 Indian Institutes of Management to submit plans for expansion of their intake capacity from 10,000 to 20,000 students.education Updated: Sep 20, 2016 20:31 IST
Union Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar on Tuesday asked the Directors and Chairmen of 20 Indian Institutes of Management to submit plans for expansion of their intake capacity from 10,000 to 20,000 students.
Javadekar's instruction came during his meeting with the Directors and Chairman of the B-schools, which was held at the Indian Institute Management-Shillong campus on Tuesday morning.
"We have decided to increase the intake capacity of students from 10,000 to 20,000 so that more students will get opportunity to take part in these best institutes. All (IIM) Directors have also narrated how they are ready for how much expansion and if there are problems they will mention it and submit action plans on expansion of students intake," Javadekar told journalists.
Apart from increasing the B-schools' intake capacity, the minister said, "The IIMs have also decided to expand (the number of) doctoral programmes (PhD programmes) to address the shortage of faculty through creating quality PhDs."

"We also discussed how to expand PhD programmes by offering IIM scholars more fellowships. As in Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) Council, we have decided to give Prime Minister Research Fellowship. We will also take government's approval for Prime Minister's scholarship for the best of the best PhD scholars in IIMs. But the final decision will be taken by the cabinet," he stated.
On Prime Minister Research Fellowship for IIT scholars, Javadekar said, "The IITs already have their own funding. Therefore, we also want to provide these benefits for IIM scholars, and necessary sanction will be given to this soon."
Javadekar said the IIMs would also participate in the new initiative of the government to make 20 world-class universities/institutes.
"The government will create world-class institutes -- ten in government sector and ten in private sector. Therefore, the IIMs should also prepare themselves because these world-class institutes will be decided finally by challenge mode," he said.
Asked whether any of the proposed world-class universities/institutes will be established in the northeastern states, the Union Minister said, "As I said, everybody will participate... As you know, after Modi became Prime Minister, the whole focus on northeast has increased not only in academic but in every sector. Therefore, this programme will be finalised and declared soon after cabinet approval."
The minister said that the IIMs will create content for the online course 'SWAYAM' also.
On the shortage of teaching faculty in the IIMs, Javadekar said, "Unlike in the IITs where we have 30 per cent shortage of teachers, in IIMs it is not much. However, we have also discussed this in our meeting how to inculcate teachership in students, how to promote doctoral research programmes, how to expand it, and how to bring the best of Indian students studying abroad as faculty, which will also be worked out."
Asked if the government plans to have reservation for the Scvhedueld Castes, the Scheduled Tribes and the Othwer Backward Castes in teaching jobs at IIMs, all set up by the government, Javadekar said, "I do not know who started all this. It's already in the Constitution, no one can bypass the Constitution. So reservation is already there."
Denying that educational institutions have turned into "hotbed of politics" in India bringing down the quality of education, Javadekar said that the main focus of students is still academics.
"That is why we started national ranking framework which is appreciated and this time will be expanded. So it is evaluating the institutes correctly so that a good national ranking framework (is developed) and we have brought our own national ranking framework and more importantly, we have found out that even in world/international ranking there is weightage of perception, (which) is nearly 40 per cent, perception about the institutes," he said.
He said the government has also decided to start an outreach programmes with alumni and Indian diaspora for their active participation, and to bring more foreign students/foreign faculties, more exchanges between India and foreign countries which would help in creating right perception about the Indian institutes and then we will get right place in international ranking also.
On disturbance in universities campuses, Javadekar said, "I think the collective wisdom will prevail ultimately. The campuses that used to get disturbed over the years are now more disciplined. I believe that collective wisdom prevails."

Vin Diesel has a fear of riding roller coasters.
The actor has built his career on his willingness to perform dangerous stunts, especially in his role as street racer Dominic Toretto in The Fast and the Furious film series and as rebellious thrill seeker Xander Cage in the xXx franchise.
In spite of his status as one of Hollywood's top action stars, Diesel shared during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday (03Apr17), that he is fearful of riding roller coasters.
"I'm not a real roller coaster kind of guy," he said during the show, which was held at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando to celebrate the opening of Fallon's new ride, Race Through New York.
In fact, Diesel told host Fallon that he would be willing to try just about stunt imaginable than be forced to whizz around on an amusement ride at a theme park.
"I do stunts for a living, (but) I just don't do roller coasters," he admitted. "I would rather ride a GSX-R (motorbike) with a loose screw, maybe 170 miles an hour down the turnpike without a helmet, than get on a roller coaster."
Diesel is currently promoting his new film The Fate of the Furious, also known as Fast & Furious 8, the next installment in the long-running series.
The 49-year-old actor shares that the movie features a number of difficult sequences, including a scene in which he drives a car that is on fire, and explains that he did feel some pressure to continue to top the stunts from previous films.
"I've got to say it's because we have the best fans in the world," he smiled. "They encourage us to continue and we're just so fortunate, we're so blessed."

How to staff your call center more effectively with Monet WFM Live
Monet's agent and call forecasting is the initial step of the Monet workforce management system.
Call Center Staffing and Roster with Monet WFM Live - Transcript
Shown here is a completed roster for August 28. Creating and building a daily or weekly roster is the final step in creating a workforce schedule. This step assigns agents to schedules according to agent availability, agent preferences, and agent work rules.
Manage Agent Resources to Cover Important Non-Call Activities
Several other areas can now be displayed. The non-call roster shows within the normal daily routing during non-peak hours certain skilled agents will be pulled off their phone duties to handle both emails and other non-call activities that were set up earlier. You can also view unassigned agents. This is a list of agents that were not scheduled for the day. As you can see some have vacation days, and others just did not have a shift available for that day.
Call Center Agent Assignment Made Easy
Monet also allows you to dynamically un-assign agents or swap agents. To do that, you highlight the individual, click the option that you would like to do, in this case un-assign or assign. If you are un-assigning an agent that slot would become vacant. In order to assign another agent, all you do is you look at the agents that were not assigned for that day, highlight one of them, and then click assign. Monet also allows you to do unlimited changes within the roster - you can rerun it, or copy it to other days. Using this allows the manager or supervisor flexibility within their daily schedule.
The next video shows you how to do intra-day management of your workforce, and how to modify forecast and schedules based on certain events.

The former Celtic striker thinks the club must 'strive to win', and says they should have signed Huddersfield defender.
Chris Sutton believes Brendan Rodgers was 'badly let down' by Celtic this summer as the club failed to sign a new centre-back to cover injuries.
Both Dedryck Boyata and Erik Sviatchenko have been out in the early part of the campaign, leaving the Hoops desperately short at the back.
It meant 18-year-old Anthony Ralston had to be drafted in at right-back against Paris Saint-Germain at Parkhead, with Mikael Lustig moving into the middle of the defence for the heavy 5-0 defeat.
Writing in the Daily Record, Sutton insisted the club should have addressed the issue during the transfer window and named Mathias Jorgensen as a player Celtic could have targeted.
"Huddersfield signed Mathias Jorgensen from Copenhagen for about £2.5m," Sutton said. "You can't tell me Celtic can't operate in that market and questions need to be asked about Lee Congerton's role as head of recruitment."
It is a subject Sutton clearly feels strongly about, because speaking to BT Sport ahead of Rangers' televised game against Partick Thistle on Friday night, he also named Fikayo Tomori as a player the Hoops could have landed.
"The young lad at Chelsea, Tomori, he's better than anything Celtic have got at the moment," the former striker said.
Jørgensen?— BT Sport Football (@btsportfootball) September 15, 2017
Tomori?@chris_sutton73 can't believe the lack of options at centre-back for Celtic and their recruitment. pic.twitter.com/U9xyqyVMfQ
Whether either player was on Celtic's radar this summer is unknown, but the fact that both of them changed clubs (Jorgensen moved to Huddersfield, while Tomori went on loan to Hull on deadline day) suggests they were available.
As it is, Rodgers must find make-shift solutions until Boyata and Sviatchenko return.
At the moment it is not hurting them domestically, but it could be the difference between third place in their Champions League group - and therefore a spot in the Europa League - and the wooden spoon.

Out of the blue, this Windows Activation box says:
The Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed is invalid for activation
Then, there's 3 choices to click on:
Buy a new product key online
Type a different product key
Contact Dell to help resolve the problem
My desktop picture is all blank/black too (but the icons are still on there.) This is all news to me. I didn't type in anything in the first place.
I've had this Dell desktop computer for several years & this never did this before.
Hopefully someone can help me. (I'd try retyping the long digit product key in that I always had, but it's at my parents' house where I'd hopefully find it.)
I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)

keeps asking for reactivation. does not allow reactivation. I used a registry cleaner. Maybe this is the problem. I have tried a few fixes on other forums. Please let me know what other info I need to share.

Hi there
I recently changed a MOBO from an INTEL based one to one using an AMD PHENOM processor -- W7 didn't want any new activation rather surprisingly. (Broken Mobo and I had a spare ASUS MOBO lying around).
However the first time I switched to using a LAN cable instead of a Wifi USB adapter I got the "Hardware has changed - please activate windows. OK it activated fine -- however seems strange to me that a MOBO change didn't call for any activation (Disks, memory, DVD device etc were canaballized from the old machine) but a simple switch from Wifi to a LAN did. !!! The internal logic of the activation process seems totally illogical and bizarre. (Running W7 x-64 ULTIMATE). !!!

I recently performed a system recovery because I was unable to back up to earlier time before we started having computer issues. Anyway I performed a recovery. Stumbled accross this by accident that windows has 3 days before it wall automatically activate. So I clicked activate. It gave me this message header. "The Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed is invalid for windows activation". There are 3 options. 1 is to Buy a new product key online. 2 is to type a different product key. 3 is to contact Hewlett-Packard Company to resolve this issue. I contacted Hewlett-Packard Company and they had me call Microsoft. Microsoft wants to charge me $100 for something I already own. Very confused. Anyway does anyone have a fix for this. Thank you
You have two choices:
You may either reinstall using the recovery partition, if you have one.
You could look for the key on the computer. It can be anywhere, including the battery compartment, if you have a lappy.
As a last restort you can try to use magic jelly bean, but I have doubts since you reinstalled.

Hi, my Windows 7 Professional is activated for a long time. However, the Windows 7 Professional OS require me to re-activation after the installed display card was suddenly unrecognized by Windows OS? Is there any method to prevent recognition
again by Windows OS if the display is intermitted fault?
Hi Gents,
Hope someone can help me here. I've been using a retail version of Win7 Home premium 64 for about 2 years now with no issues.
During that time I've reinstalled the product possibly 6 or 8 times. Excessive I know but when things start to go wrong I like to start fresh again. Anyway from memory the last 2 times I have had to use phone activation.
A couple of weeks ago I dropped my laptop and killed the HDD. Put in a new one and reinstalled Win. I've just tried to activate with no luck. I went to phone activation and being lazy I typed in my old code I had saved from last time.
Now I can't activate and when I try and open the phone activation box I get a pop up from the toolbar saying the copy isn't genuine and nothing more.
Is there a way to resolve this or have I pissed off the activation so much that I actually have to shell out for a new copy?
Thanks in advance and I'm located in Thailand if that makes a difference.

Hi guys , I installed ATI 2010 Home, Boxed version made a backup image to external HDD. got a message saying I had 30 days to activate trial version? I restored the backup image and I activated ATI , offline, I then received a message saying thanks successfully installed. When I access ATI now I get the same box asking for activation again. the options are Try out, Buy, Activate, Cancel . I was thinking of reactivating online , but am wary of further messing up the install . I have not registered the product yet , Had a look at the Acronis register page ( they tell you Not recommended to access the page) ? Any ideas with this one ? options uninstall , reinstall? Try activate online? Anyone experienced this problem?
Hi guys, this ones solved, I took a chance11 rebooted, connected to the internet, started ATI and reactivated online it worked . Same as last time only the ATI icon seems to be different, have tested it a few times and goes straight into Acronis without problems now. Done!
I am having a problem with my windows 7 home premium 64bit. I wiped my computer to try and get a new graphic card to work( never got it working, gave up and went back to my old graphic card) Since then I have had to wipe my computer a number of times, I kept having to wipe my computer since the same problem kept happening. Which is that my windows will crash and wont work after about 1-2mins after start up.
I thought it was my disk so I installed it from a usb windows installer and has been runnign fine for about 2 weeks until I was free to do the phone activation of my windows, I phoned up the activation after using my computer for a while then after I phoned and it came up genuine (like normal) I went to get a drink befor doing more work and once getting back to my computer I opened a new tab on firefox it was very slow on the internet so I clsoed my browser and tried to reopen it and but it woulnd't open windows has frozen completely so I pressed the restart button on my case and let it boot up and then it wouldn't let me do anything.
Does anyone have any idea of how come my computer seem to freeze and refuse to work once I use the windows phone activation?
What makes you think it is the activation? Did you go click on "Start Button", right click on "Computer" and left click on "Properties"? When the screen comes up scroll down to the right bottom of the screen and you should see a "Genuine Windows Logo". If it says something different then there is an activation problem.Read other 6 answers
I just completely reformatted my computer after a suspected malware attack.
The first thing I tried after reformatting and doing a clean install of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit edition was to run windows update. I received the error code 80072EFD. This is before I installed any software, firewalls, or antivirus programs. I also get this same error when trying to activate windows or office, or when trying to set up Microsoft media center.
I do have internet connection. Both firefox and internet explorer work perfectly fine.
I have been in contact with microsoft, but nothing has worked so far. I thought I would see if anyone here had any ideas.
Here are the troubleshooting steps I have already done. Please read through these before posting as you can see I have already tried a lot of things!
1. Waiting 15 minutes and trying again
2. Restarting the computer
3. Adding windows update websites to the internet explorer exceptions list: http://*.update.microsoft.com https://*.update.microsoft.com http://download.windowsupdate.com Microsoft Support http://update.microsoft.com https://update.microsoft.com
4. Verifying internet connectivity (internet works fine)
5. Tried it with Windows firewall on and off. No other firewalls are installed.
6. I tried this before any anti-virus was installed. I have since installed AVG free and tried again both with it running and disabled

Hi!Windows tells me that it wants to be activated on the machine mentioned above. I don't see any sticker with a license code on the case. So i tried to read the license key from the BIOS. This gives me HYF8J-CVRMY-CM74G-RPHKF-PW487. Windows says that this key is a standard key and that i have to enter my individual key.

MS have since released a new patch designed to resolve the issues caused bythe failed patch..
We purchased a VLK with Software Assurance from a local distributor here my question is what if from their VLSC License the Operating System listed are
10 Windows 7 Professional
82 Windows 8 Enterprise
15 Windows 7 Enterprise
We don't want to install Windows 8 as of now to our office and we wanted to retain the Windows 7 Pro and Enterprise as our Operating System. Do we have a problem for Activation if we still insists to used Windows 7 Pro and Enterprise Operating System using the Windows 8 Enterprise 82 Licenses?
Thank you very much
There is no way you can use a Windows 8 Enterprise licence for anything else than Windows 8 Enterprise. You simply can not activate Windows with a product key belonging to another Windows version and edition.
With those licences you can install and activate 27 25 Windows 7, not a single more.

Hello all,
I have a very specific question that i can not find an answer.
I bought a new pc and i want to buy Windows 10 Pro. I have found a very good price for a Windows 7 Pro license which will give me a free upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.
I will have the key in the following days but the pc is assembled and ready.
(1)Can i clean install Windows 10 Pro and activate it with the windows 7 pro key that has never been activated even for a windows 7 machine or
(2)should i first install windows 7 pro, activate it with the key and then clean install windows 10 and activate it with the windows 7 pro key
Thank you.
Hi Trod,
You can install W10 NOW and you dont have to activate it immediately, theres a 30 day grace period.
So when you get your W7 package you can activate it with the product key.

note your purchased W7 pro licence MUST be either System builder or retail or it will not activate

Hello, I have just formatted my computer, and after I re-install Windows XP and gets to the activation part, it tells me that I have exceeded my alotted amount of activations from my product key. And i've only used the product key once. Does anyone know how to help me out here? or do I have to buy a new product key?
try calling microsoft, get a new one from them if you can prove your pc is legit.

I purchased a few months agos an upgrade ver of winxp for a troubled system that died 2 days after I upgraded it to winxp. That computer no longer exists. I have since purchased a new computer w/OS. I would like to pass on the winxp upgrade that I did activate but only used for 2 days. I have consulted the Microsoft WS but I do not want buy a new license since I did not get any real use out of the one I bought, nor do I want whoever I donate it to, to to have to purchase a license. I also do not want to pay the fee to get in touch with Microsoft. I spent good money on an upgrade that I am not using and I want to pass it on as a legit copy. How do I go about getting a new activation key without incurring additional expenses? Thanks!
and welcome to the Forum
You do not need a new key . . whoever installs it next, at the point they activate it, will just call microsoft and explain that it is being reinstalled on a different machine. It's a quick and easy call for them.
Since it is an upgrade version, the next user will need a previous installation cd to be able to install
OK, so here's the thing. My computer is half dead, the motherboard is starting to die one me, the IDE controller is dead on one channel, etc. Enough of my problems, the solution is I'm purchasing a new computer.

Hi Everybody,
I updated to Windows 10 last week from what I thought was an activated version of windows 8.1, but now I'm stuck with an "Activate Windows" watermark in the bottom right of my screen (which goes over everything, not just the desktop) and I was wondering if in order to activate windows I could just buy a new product key, or would I need to re-install windows with the new product key. If anyone could give me any other idea of how to resolve my problem I would be truly grateful.
First thing to try is to activate it using your windows 8.1 key (change product key) from activation menu.
Use showkeyplus to extract 8.1 key if you do not know it.

I have Windows 7 Pro installed on my computer and I'm getting messages that I need to activate Windows. I thought this was already done. When I enter my product code I'm told that Windows can't activate on my computer and my Windows 7 is not
genuine. I have tried typing in the code more than once and I get the same response. Please help. Thanks!
I have seen the posts today regarding the "Non-Genuine" errors.
I haven't received any of those errors, but for curiosity's sake I ran the MS Diag tool - that showed I have Windows 7 Enterprise - NOT- I have Pro 7.
I also ran the Validation tool and it said Not Genuine and wanted me to buy a new copy.
I went to Computer page and it shows as validated.
So, why all the misinformation?
Windows could not be validated as genuine - Microsoft Windows

how to get windows activation key
This is actually a difficult question to answer since you do not provide context. By tghis I mean that you don't describe the situation. For example, do you want to activate a retail copy of Windows which you have installed and cannot locate the key? Do
you want to get the files plus a user license/activation code.
Have a look and give further details of your requirements.
I need help with Windows XP home edition. Recently I reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled my Windows XP software home edition Pack 1. Everything seems to be working fine except with the activation of my product. The activation Icon is displayed on taskbar notifying me of amount of days remaining for activating my windows. When I click on the Icon, the activation window is displayed with a message that my Windows is already activated? However, the activation Icon continues to count down the days. What do I have to do to fix this problem. I really don't want to reinstall windows again. Is there a number where I can talk with a Tech for help.
Thank you,

My PC has recently been hit with ransomware.
My Windows Defender was up-to-date but I noticed that my Malwarebytes wasn't and the virus seemed to have slipped through the cracks of my security.
I followed the DIY instructions on BleepingComputer on how to get rid of the ransomware, but the instructions were weird.
How were you able to gain access into your PC through "Safe Mode with Networking", when the Windows Act. Pro. is the first thing that blocks you from gaining access the moment you enter your password??
I did the "Ctrl + Alt + Del" and I was able to get rid of the Windows Act. Pro. but now all I see is a black screen with "Safe Mode" on each corner of the screen.
The instructions seems to go about as if the ransomware never popped up, allowing you to install Malwarebtyes and scan your PC without an issue, yet I can't even do that. I might just format my PC if all else fails.
My question is, how do you bypass WAP in Safe Mode so I can scan my PC for any viruses? I already downloaded Malwarebytes (the latest version) onto my external hard drive (from my laptop), and it's ready to be plugged in and install the anti-virus software. I just need to get into my infected PC on Safe mode
I havent made any changes on my motherboard, or CPU.
I use Windows Defender and Malwarebytes.
I use Windows 7 SP1
I did the "Ctrl + Alt + Del" and I was able to get rid of the Windows Act. Pro. but now all I see is a black screen with "Safe Mode" on each corner of the screen.
When you are at this point try to ctrl+alt+delete and go to task manager, then you have the option to start a new task (File -> New task).. write explorer.exe and windows explorer should be started and you will be able to access to your computer/files
I purchased a Windows PC with Windows 7 Pro installed (OEM version). It's been running fine for two years, then in December Microsoft blocked the activation code on it. I called them, they state it is a miss-assigned product key and has been blocked, I should
take the computer to the place of purchase and get them to provide a valid key.
I took the computer to the shop, they told me it's been blocked through multiple activation's. We've never changed any hardware on the computer since purchase. The shop tells me it could have been a virus that stole the Product ID (I find this hard to believe
as we are incredible careful with the links and websites we visit. The shop basically said you need to purchase a new copy of Windows 10. I know it's not expensive to purchase a new copy, but this hints at a larger issue that is really annoying me. As I have
Microsoft telling me it's not their fault and as it's an OEM version I need to talk to the vendor, meanwhile I have the vendor blaming Microsoft. I'm stuck in the middle with no way to use the computer for work and no spare machine to work from!!!
I don't know what else I can do to get this resolved.

I installed Windows 7 x64 hp on a new computer that I build. I installed it from a CD-Rom. The problem ist that the Product Key from that CD has already been used to the limit. However I do have another Product Key also for windows 7 x64 hp. Now...my problem is that I'm not sure if the second Key will work because in the activation center it shows me that there is an Product ID. Will it work even though the Product ID and the Product Key dont match?
Even if it would work, would that count as an activation for the Key or the ID? Because the ID is registered to the CD and that has already its limit reached.
Another question is: what actually happens if you install and activate the same product too many times? Will Microsoft deactivate the first activation? I dont want all my computers to crash!!
Please Help
Generally speaking, an install CD is a licence for one and only one installation. Any more than that is illegal and subject to penalties. There are a very few exceptions, and if you are one of the legal exceptions, you need to fully explain how you qualify before any help will be coming from this site.
I switched on my computer and following happened-
A screen with the word Platinum comes up ( never seen this before) and in the bottom corner the words Press tab to switch to post or delete to enter bios. If you press tab the following message appears-
cmos checksum error - defaults loaded
Warning now system is in safe mode
Please reset overlocking features in setup menu.
Press F1 to continue or delete to enter setup.
If you press F1 windows XP logo appears and then the welcome page, after this the following box appears with Windows product Activation and the message-
This copy of windows must be activated with microsoft before you can log on.
Do you want to activate windows ? yes or no.
If you press yes then my screen saver appears but nothing else.
I have left the computer for a number of hours hoping something might happen but it just stays on my screen saver.
Any advice as to what i need to do to resolve this would be much appreciated.
cmos checksum error - defaults loaded
Something has changed in your Bios. Your CMOS battery may need changing.
Restart the computer and press the Del key to enter Setup (Bios)
In the Bios, set it to Failsafe Defaults. Save and Exit. The computer should load into Windows without prompts. If the clock on the computer is off, doesn't keep the correct time, you will need to change the CMOS battery on the motherboard.

One of my favourite Spring/Summer trends is thankfully one that you can count on every year – nautical stripes. Stripes are already all over the high-street in various guises from traditional blue, ultra thin stripes, vertical and horizontal stripes. My favourite are the more block-y Prada inspired stripes like the Zara skirt in the centre. I also love the Topshop night shorts which are just too cute to be confined to indoors, I'm planning on wearing them with wedges, slouchy tee and a maxi length cardi.

Top Five: High-street jumpsuits13 Jul
I remember when jumpsuits and playsuits first filtered down onto the high-street, most people were scratching their heads, slightly apprehensive of the new fashion curve ball. Playsuits became the more popular, more wearable option; I'm not sure why, but the full jumpsuit seemed a little much for people. But now, I'm seeing their full potential. I feel like I've seen the light! They stand out as slightly quirky and distinctive in a sea of curb sweeping maxi, but just as elegantly chic. Here are my top five picks from the high-street, plus a bonus jumpsuit which I've been lusting after for ages!
Tyler tie-dye jumpsuit – Laden – £40
Digital Odyssey jumpsuit – ASOS – £40
Halter neck playsuit – Rare – £32
Multi print wide leg jumpsuit – Miss Selfridge – £45
Sinha Stanic silk floral jump suit – Sinha Stanic @ Oli – £40, was £100

Earlier on this week, I wrote about going to the fabulous launch party for the Laden Showroom website with Fiona from Save Our Shoes. I was so excited by the gorgeous goodies on the site that I didn't post my outfit! This jacket is one of my favourites, my jackets are normally dark and boring so this shaggy faux fur jacket is slightly out of character.
We met up with the super sweet Winnie from Diamond Canopy before hitting the party for some amazingly huge pancakes from My Old Dutch. They're absolutely deeeelish!
I absolutely adore everything that Fiona wears, the textures and colours are always amazing.

Social media has exploded in the last few years if you haven't already noticed and Sokule is one heavy hitter, just like 12 Second Commute will be a household name... Jane Mark my words!
Internet Marketers and online business owners all over the globe have experienced the power of this monster market and as a result advertising has become big business for the social media sites.
Sokule and 12 Second Commute are hands down plain and simple good business decisions any way you look at it. If you've got an online business you need tools to manage it, you also need an easy, effective way to advertise through social media.
Both of these services are a marriage made in heaven and together with just these two services you will make your online presence seen, heard, felt and known.
If you are not using social media to advertise, you will be left behind my friend. Almost every wireless device on the planet now comes with some type of application for numerous social networks. including Facebook, Twitter and MySpace to name a few.
Sokule is giant step in evolution with the ability to send messages, updates and new posts to 42 social media websites and counting with one application, just like 12 Second Commute, everything all in one place.
Social networking has touched just about every aspect of our lives and is possibly the most significant recent contributions the internet has made to everyday life.
Sokule allows you send a post similar to the other networks but will also ping those greedy search engine spiders alerting them of the new content to help you reach more people and get more sales.
This isn't your grandmother's social network.
Sokule was designed for business and resembles Twitter in its ability to send short topical messages to not only other SoKule members (trackers) with the added benefit of posting on 42 other partner sites to unleash a powerful viral effect.
The competition is growing every day and it can be difficult to grab a potential customers attention with the overwhelming amount of information to weed through, Sokule can get your message directly to millions of people with the click of your mouse instead of just throwing your information out in the .com cosmos and hoping people see it.
Sokule much like 12 Second Commute is free to sign up and there are levels of membership that perform different functions, most marketers immediately upgrade after realizing the potential just as 12 Second Commute members upgrade to take advantage of the unlimited marketing tools for a mere $19/month.
12 Second Commute stresses the importance of list building and adding Sokule as part of your arsenal, there is no telling how big your business will explode!
Sokule even has a commission program for referrals and these pay a whopping up to fifty percent commission for anyone who upgrades to a paid membership, you can make a good profit on referrals alone.
If it sounds too good to be true, take a moment and visit the website for some more detailed information and discover how Sokule can help your business take it to the next level with social media.
Always take the high road, it is a lot less crowded and much easier to navigate.

Depicts a knight's helmet in front of a castle gateway to symbolize the Gateway to Operations.
RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire is the largest RAF Station with approximately 5,800 Service Personnel, 1,200 contractors and 300 civilian staff.
The Station is home to the RAF's Strategic and Tactical Air Transport (AT) and Air-to-Air Refuelling (AAR) forces, as well as host to many lodger and reserve units.
With its mixed fleet of aircraft, RAF Brize Norton provides rapid global mobility in support of UK overseas operations and exercises, as well as AAR support for fast jet aircraft both on operations and in support of UK Homeland Defence.
Details on flights to and from RAF Brize Norton can be found in Passenger Information
RAF Brize Norton, Carterton, Oxfordshire, OX18 3LX.
On Friday 3rd August, the Commanding Officer of RAF Brize Norton, Group Captain Tim Jones, handed over the reins to Group Captain Dan James.
On Monday 16th July, a graduation ceremony was held at RAF Brize Norton for students who completed their Jon Egging Trust (JET) Blue Skies programme
Construction of the airfield at the Brize Norton site began in 1935 and the official opening took place on 13 August 1937. Number 2 Flying Training School was the first unit to be stationed here, arriving on 7 September 1937.
In July 1942, the Station became the home of the Heavy Glider Conversion Unit, later renamed No 21 HGCU, which remained at RAF Brize Norton until 31 December 1945.
Between March and October 1944, the Station was used as a base for parachute and glider operations by Nos 296 and 297 Squadrons, both equipped with Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle aircraft; both Squadrons were involved in D-Day operations, and the airborne landings at Arnhem.
Flying Training Command returned to the Station with No 204 AFTS in August 1949, but their stay was only to be a short one and they left in June 1950 when the first Americans began to arrive.
The USAF formally accepted control of RAF Brize Norton on 16 April 1951, eventually basing B-36 Convair Peacemaker bombers then B-47 Stratojets at a later date. Later, on 1 April 1965 the Royal Air Force took back control of the Station.
Various iconic aircraft have been based at RAF Brize Norton, including, Airspeed Oxford, Harvard, Whitley, Albermarle, Horsa Glider, Britannia, VC-10, Belfast, Argosy, Andover, Tri-Star, Globemaster III, Hercules, Voyager and Atlas.

Sabah set to reinforce squad
By FRANCIS XAVIER
KOTA KINABALU: Sabah FA is set to reinforce its Premier League squad with new foreign signings during the ongoing mid-season transfer window.
The arrival of six hopefuls gives an impression that the soon-to-be out of contract Korean duo of striker Lee Gil Hoon, who could also play in midfield, and midfielder Heo Jaenyeong are heading towards the exit door when their one-year deal with the FA ends tomorrow (May 17).
The six hopefuls that are currently on trials with the Sabah Rhinos, namely two Koreans, Ko Jae Sung, Kim Jeewong, Carlos Calvo Sobrado from Spain, Japanese Keisuke Ogawa, Faysal Shayesteh (Afghanistan) and Aryn Glen Williams from Australia. They are all either attacking or defensive midfielders.
But Sabah are racing against time in getting their target, as their next fixture away to Felda United FC is in about a week's time.
Failing to meet the deadline may see them play the match with one or two foreign imports lesser against the runaway leaders.
Team manager Datuk Juil Nuatim hopes that they will be able to beat the clock and have everything settled before their tie against Felda United FC.
"We currently have quite a number of players on trials with the team. We are looking for players who are better than what we already have.
"If any of the hopefuls can impress our head coach (Jelius Ating) and his coaching panel, then we will try to complete the signings ahead of our next game against Felda on May 24," said Juil when met at the team's training on Monday.
"As for the selection of the players, we will let the head coach make his decision because he knows the quality that is needed to strengthen the team.
"I hope there will be one or two hopefuls that can impress our head coach. If not, then we could be playing with only two foreign players in our next tie," said Juil.
Sabah Rhinos' other foreign players are Zambian defender Francis Kasonde and Puerto Rico striker Pito Ramos. Sabah Rhinos are currently fifth in the Premier League standings on 15 points from three wins, six draws and two defeats.
They are level on points with sixth-placed Sarawak and seventh-placed UiTM FC but enjoy a superior goal difference over the two sides.
Felda United are leading the pack on 26 points, followed by the only unbeaten side in the league Felcra FC (18), Police (18) and MISC-MIFA (16).

Reference information
How to pressure can.
When pressure canning, you must adjust the pressure for your altitude.
More information about Salt-Free Canning in general.
Recipe notes
The University of Wisconsin notes that you may use "ground beef, or venison, or a combination of both."
The University of Wisconsin, in an email in January 2017, has also confirmed that you may alternatively use ground chicken or turkey as the meat.1
If you're not trying to reduce sugar and salt intake, then regular ketchup of course is fine.
Yes, you can omit the tablespoon of sugar. It won't impact the safety (it's just there as a dry seasoning), and, we're not convinced it will impact the taste all that much, either, especially if you are already using regular full-sugar ketchup. If your audience has a real sweet tooth, you could also increase the sugar by a few tablespoons.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2010-10-18/Technology report
Video subtitling tool, staff vs. volunteer developers, brief news
Universal Subtitles editor comes to Commons
For some time, visitors to Wikimedia Commons have been able to access "timed text" (a system of time references and accompanying text, better known by its applications as subtitles and closed captions) via the mwEmbed gadget. The subtitling effort has been hampered, however, by the lack of a useful editor for the timed text. "Universal Subtitles", a Mozilla Drumbeat project, aims to fill the void for all websites, but Wikimedia had not been able to integrate it. That changed this week, when developer Michael Dale announced that (Wikimedia Techblog):
|Today, I am happy to share our first pass at integrating our open subtitle efforts. Please keep in mind this integration is still very early on in development, but the basic milestone of being able to use the tool on commons to create and sync up subtitle tracks is an important first step. Even without helpful tools in place, the Wikimedia community has been creating subtitles and translations. We hope this new subtitle edit tool will broaden the number of participants and enable the Wikimedia community to set a new standard for high quality multilingual accessibility in online video content.
An example is available, and it is also possible to leave feedback.
Staff, paid developers and volunteers: discussions continue
This week saw a revitalised drive towards reaching an understanding between WMF staff decision-makers, WMF paid developers, and the volunteer development community. For a long time the creation of the MediaWiki software, which Wikimedia, Wikia and a number of other sites rely on, had a development cycle that operated like a wiki, for better or worse. It included a large number of volunteer developers and only a handful of paid employees (for example, Brion Vibber); their contributions were checked and deployed in sequential order. With its budget expanding in recent years, the Foundation has been able to hire more developers, who are now involved in a large number of projects some would perceive as being nearly impossible for a volunteer to complete in their spare time. Likewise, the review system has been updated to allow important fixes to be deployed out-of-cycle without first reviewing other more minor edits. Staff and developers, both paid and volunteer, are now concerned that a tension is growing between the various parts of the jigsaw, an "us vs. them dynamic" (Erik Möller, Deputy Director), similar to the conflict that had flared up earlier this year between the User Experience team and volunteer developers over a seemingly minor issue (the display of interwiki links, see Signpost coverage), where Möller had likewise observed "a widening gap between staff and volunteer contributions". Paid developer Roan Kattouw put his thoughts down (Wikitech-l mailing list):
|Since the discussion about staff collaboration with volunteers started a few weeks ago, actions and statements by staff members have undergone an increasing amount of scrutiny and criticism. That in itself is not a bad thing... in recent weeks, however, posts on this mailing list [i.e. from volunteers] have gone way beyond 'some' scrutiny and criticism, instead suggesting something closer to distrust and paranoia.
Volunteer Aryeh Gregor responded:
|This is a symptom of the tension between staff and volunteers. Naturally, volunteers are more likely to express their frustration here, because they don't have to act professional and because they're the ones who feel wronged in this case.
More optimistically, the discussion turned to possible solutions. There was general agreement that getting back to more regular updates was the solution (Roan Kattouw):
|I whole-heartedly agree with the analysis that deploy backlog is at the hear[t] of this. I have some gut feelings I can't word very well right now that say the "solely because they're not WMF" isn't completely fair, but what you've stated multiple times in various guises is true: what matters is perception, fair or not. If volunteers *feel* ignored, that's bad. ... We need to come up with a plan that takes us back to regular (weekly?) deployments. I think cleaning up the CR [Code Review] backlog is an uncontroversial first step.
This sentiment was mirrored by Aryeh Gregor:
|To reiterate, I think most of the problem will disappear when we have regular code deployment again. At this point, it's best to focus solely on that and forget about all other complaints. If problems linger for long after everyone's code is getting deployed on a regular basis, we can talk about that then, and I think everyone will be talking on much more amicable basis.
There was continuing disagreement, however, about whether or not the Foundation was doing enough to achieve this goal, and how quickly it needed to be achieved. Discussion included the expansion of the code review base - including the rehiring of Brion Vibber, for example - which unfortunately coincided with the paternity leave of head code reviewer Tim Starling.
In brief
Not all fixes may have gone live to WMF sites at the time of writing; some may not be scheduled to go live for many weeks.
- Google Summer of Code participant Peter Potrowl appealed for someone to take over the development of his "reasonably efficient interwiki transclusion" project (Wikitech-l mailing list). See also Signpost coverage of the project
- The Brooklyn Museum built its first open source software release, BklynFlow. BklynFlow is a MooTools class for creating Coverflow-like user interfaces for the web. It was designed for accessing Wikipedia content on iPad Kiosks placed for a recent exhibition.
- Microsoft Research has released a tool to assist people in translating Wikipedia articles. The tool makes machine translations of articles and has a simple integrated editor to make improvements upon that translation. The new product is called WikiBhasha and as Wikimedia CTO, Danese Cooper announced, it is an open-source project.
