Hi, I have Windows Vista Starter, SP 1, that I bought pre-loaded on a new
notebook computer a couple of weeks ago. There is an annoying watermark
that
says Windows Vista Starter in the lower right-hand corner. How can I get
rid
of it? Thank you.
The Windows Flag and Vista Logo-Watermark that Vista Starter dsiplays on
top of each Window in the lower right corner is by Design.
You can not remove it ( and you are not allowed to ).
Vista Starter is a feature limited Edition designed to run on old or
extremely cheap hardware . It supports only Pentium III,AMD Duron,Athlon and
similar obsolote Processors ( no Dualcore or x64 ) and needs only 384 MB of
Memory to install and maxes out by 1 GB of Ram. It supports only Vista BAsic
Theme and can only run three programs at a time.
Although Starter edition comes as a choice on each Vista Retail DVD, a
productkey or a
License for that OS is not available in the US,Canada,Europe and most other
industrial countries.
I hope your Edition is genuine and does not violate the EULA. Check that it
is activated. Otherwise it could be the case that you have purchased a
machine with a 30-day Evaluation OS. Vista can be installed without a key as
you may know it runs in Evalmode..
