  1. If I purchase a new license for Windows, will the install fix a jumbled MBR.


    I have a Dell laptop that was shipped with Windows. I think the power dropped off during an update. Now, it says it has a corrupt BR, I cannot find the embedded license # for windows.


    Dell says that it does not have an image for my service tag, but images exist for the computer. They want to charge for service.


    I have tried a command prompt chkdsk /f, bootrec, all of those.


    When I install Windows, will it recreate a MBR?

    :)

  3. Purchase and install a valid license key without needing to reinstall all my applications

    Thank you.

    So, just to clarify:

    • Purchase a license from the Microsoft Store
    • Download official Windows 10 ISO files
    • Prepare the bootable media
    • Perform the Windows 10 Home in-place upgrade you described in steps 55 to 63 above

    Is this correct?

    Last questions:

    • What happens is the Windows 10 Home in-place upgrade does not work? Do I have to perform a clean install?

    Thanks again,

    Andrew

  4. If I purchase a new license for Windows, will the install fix a jumbled MBR.

    Jumble won't advance to next level.

    I indicated Windows 10 and "ease of access" which I'm not sure what that means, but they didn't list Games so this was the only way to get a post.

    • I am at level 80 in Jumble.
    • I have all correct words, bonuses, et.
    • I have 3 stars.
    • But I'm supposed to go thru a "gate" but every time I click on it, it tells me I have to get at least one star.
    • Ran the troubleshooter for Jumble with no results.
    • I installed and reinstalled Ultimate Word Games.
    • Called Microsoft support but they didn't tell me to do something that I had already done. They did send a link but their article did not solve the issue.

    Any geniuses out there with suggestions? Thanks!
