  • Windows Vista Edition Home Premium 32-bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

    Hello, I bought windows 7 Professional and received a disc OEM from DELL, I have Vista Edition home premium on an HP, what are my chances to do this upgrade.

    I inserted the CD and I got the following error message "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are using.
    I tried to get rid of a download on the computer and still the same.
    I also have a problem with the product key that small cutting with the key has been damage and some numbers where not readable. but so far that has not been a problem as I have not that many but I want to be ready
    Chris

    Contact the person who sold it to your and get a replacement or Exchange CD-ROM.

    There is no place on the way to upgrade 32-bit versions of Windows to Windows 7 64 bit. You will need to do a custom installation.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the necessary

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Unable to activate Windows Vista Edition Home Premium

    I can not activate my new copy of Windows Vista because I was running XP Professional and started to read errors on my hard drive. Thinking it was just a matter of time before she didn't, I bought a new hard drive & a copy of Windows Vista upgrade.

    Thinking that I was OK because I got XP installed on the system, I did a clean install on new hard drive. Nope, XP should be located on the disk where I have installed Vista. I also wanted to keep a working XP if the copy

    I have my CD of XP Professional & key so I understand that I can install XP on the new drive and then install Vista. Is there an easier way? I tried activating by phone & said to call support.

    It is just a hardware change - why is it so difficult? Give me a windows where I can enter my key XP & my Vista key. Is this too much to ask?

    The news of evils, is from XP Pro to Vista Home Premium is not a path of evolution.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/get/upgrade-your-PC-options.aspx

    Vista upgrade paths to the link above.

    And you can not legally do a clean install with an upgrade disc.

    You bought the wrong Vista Upgrade disc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "I also wanted to keep a working XP in case copy."

    If the upgrade was possible, what is not, you would not have been able to do the foregoing, as the XP license should be integrated into the Vista upgrade install.

    A single license is a single Installation.
