  can I switch from 32-bit win vista home prem 64-bit win vista home prem?

  Yes, you can, but you need to back up and do a custom installation. There is no place on the way to upgrade from Windows Vista 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Installation and relocation of Windows Vista
  Back up your files - Microsoft Corporation: software, Smartphones...

  Boot from the Windows Vista 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 Vista 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.

• can I downgrade from 10 to 7?

  can I downgrade from 10 to 7

  I do not recommend coming back because I've seen too much to go wrong.
  Returning can be done only if you have installed in the past 30 days (if you created a new user, you should remove it before come back you)

  Back on the settings > update & security > Recovery > roll back to a previous operating system

  This will only work if the windows.old and 2 hidden folders ($Windows. ~ WS & Windows $. ~ BT) are still present.  If you do that you will need to re - install.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can buy a license of Windows 7 64-bit.  Buy external DVD media.

  You can find the HP Windows 7 64 bit drivers posted here.

  This document will instruct you on how to disable the UEFI mode and the mode of inheritance.

  Don't forget to create the external HP recovery media before attempting to change the BIOS settings and installing Windows 7.

• Can I downgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows XP Professional

  QUESTIONS: 1) can I demote a machine Win7 Starter purchased through package of retail full license, never installed, XP Pro OS?  Assume that both are 32-bit.  I was thinking of buying one of these netbooks cheap in Walmart stores that are Windows 7 upgrade option to Windows 8 (which I do not wish to use), and experiment.  If Win7 is proving to be as disastrous as I wait, I want to install a new copy of the new detail of full XP Pro including Service Pack 3 (which has never been installed on any computer), to downgrade from Windows 7. I've never used in triplicate.
  The machine is Acer Aspire One with Windows 7 Starter edition, on sale at Walmart for only $228.  They have other editions of Windows, I could buy instead, if the Starter Edition is not eligible for a downgrade.
  2) do you anticipate problems of license?  Do not talk about compatibility, as that varies depending on the machine.  It's just that the installation with MS products is always also annoying complicated and always associated with a licensing problem.  I can't guess at what these problems are, they are never what I expect.  Where the question.

  Backstory: I am wary of XP Professional updating to Windows 7, due to the many people experience incompatibilities.  I ran the Win7 Upgrade Advisor, and he has not yet detected what third-party software was running on my machine in his analysis, other than common programs of MS and stuff from the internet.  So I have ZERO faith it will be compatible with my XP software current and material, so 32-bit (which I use now), or 64-bit (which one of my machines can take in charge, but instead, 32-bit XP Prof OS is installed and running).

  It cost me about $100K of my time to switch to XP, in 2005; I just went through two own XP installed on two of my other machines.  Recovery was not possible.  Cost me three months of my life, these facilities.  Wouldn't do it again.  It is unnecessarily complex.

  So I have to check the effectiveness of Win7.  And if she is not enough justify using, as I hope - I have a lot of detail that new (well, once again) never used XP Professional OS bought in a store, that I can use to downgrade.  ("not OEM, not upgrade or academic, etc. so the full XP license is valid for each packet.)  I understand very well that support ends in April 2014 and don't care if it stops.  What I care about is running my business that threatens to Win7, because it changes the interface and eliminates a bunch of features that have been very productive in XP Pro.

  Of course, my impressions have not been tested on a live installation.  ERGO this post.  For me, it's a $100,000 decision, because it is the cost of my time if I deploy Win7.  Sorry for ranting, but I need to explain the reasons for downgrading in context.  Thank you for your time!

  I guess I do not understand you. If you have a version of Xp retail packaging, you can install it on any computer you want. Nothing MS or anyone else can say about it.

  As others have noted you might encounter a driver for some of your hardware problem is not not compatible wth Xp. The only way to know for sure, or I should say the best way, is to install Xp and discover.

  If it was me I would make sure that the computer has a restore disk or a partition to reinstall Win 7 if Xp didn't work. If none of those who were present I would clone the drive hard while Win 7 was still about this. Better safe than sorry.

  Finally, I would make sure that I got a usb Ethernet card so that you could make sure you have the ability to connect when the net card driver was not installed with Xp...

• Downgrading from 64 bit to 32 bit

  If anyone can help here I'll be eternaly grateful! I bought a new HP 2000 - 240 CA running Windows 7 64-bit edition. I run 32-bit. I bought Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit because I saw on the website that this can be done. When I tried, the drivers for the wireless and ethernet cable do not work - so I can't get online to update. I spent hours on the phone with a gentleman on a technical support for him to finally say that this 64-bit computer can not downgrade to a 32-bit operating system. (like he said at the beginning!)

  So it's possible or not? My daughter needs a 32-bit operating system to work from home.  I bought almost just 7 Ultimate 64 bit, but really no need to spend more money. Help!  Thank you!

  Chrispre, welcome to the forum.

  I believe you can go down to 32-bit.  Drivers are on the page of the product specifications.  If these don't work, you can contact Microsoft Customer Service to see what they can do to help you.  Since you have purchased a full version, they have a direct interest in the implementation.

• can I downgrade from windows Vista Basic to windows xp home sem

  I have windows vista home basic system. can I go down to windows xp home edition.

  Hello

  There is NO right to downgrade from Vista Home Basic to XP.

  You need Vista Business or Vista ultimate for this.

  If you want XP, see if your computer manufacturer has XP drivers available for your laptop computer/computer model.

  If the XP drivers are available for this purpose, Microsoft sells more than XP, so you should have to take the risk of buying a pirated software on the Net, which is not recommended at all.

  If there is no XP drivers, XP would not work correctly in all cases.

  See you soon.

• Can I downgrade from Windows 7 Ultimate to Home Premium?

  I've upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate Windows Home Premium through the Windows Anytime Upgrade. But I want to downgrade again. I can do this. Please suggest me how to do?

  Please note that you can not perform a "downgrade" from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 7 Home Premium.  You perform a "clean installation" of Windows 7 Home Premium using your Windows 7 Home Premium original DVD or recommended by the manufacturer of your computer method of recovery/reinstallation of Windows 7 Home Premium.
