    Can’t install windows on a previously owned company laptop


    HiMy school received a donation of 70 laptops from a company ; the thing is…. I’ve tried formatting the hdd, delete all partitions and then try installing windows … with no success …. The installation starts but at some point every single time asks me for a company email. I can even see the company logo….I don’t guet it! I’ve deleted all partitions and formatted them as fat32,I’ve created a bootable usb pen with windows 11 and even with windows 10.Nothing works!I always get the login screen that asks for the company email ,,,So far I was only able to install chrome os…Any help please?Thanks

    :)

    Clean Install Workaround for Vista

    You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:
    • Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
    • When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
    • Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
    • When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
    • This time enter your product key
    • When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
    • Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it
    Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.
