Can I Exchange windows 7 ultimate 32 bit to 64 bit?

My University offers $ 7 upgrade CD for its students. but the CD of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit.

I have 4 GB of ram and using Windows Home Premium 64 Bit. I asked at my University, and they said that they don't 'contract for 64-bit. is it possible I can get 64 bit in Exchange if I buy my University store windows?

I am not able to get the contact address of sales for windows? Software engineer

The University said no and informed that they do not have a contract for 64-bit, so I guess not. TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2010 - Update Services

  • Where can I download windows 7 ultimate 32 bit to upgrade a Vista Home Premium 32 bit?

    Hello

    I have a little problem. I have this Toshiba laptop comes with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit version. It came with a free upgrade to Windows 7. Toshiba not did me not a CD for Windows Vista or 7. I was too lazy to update. Now my computer has some problems, so I thought I would just upgrade to Windows 7. But I find no legal download online to upgrade. Why is this? Where can I find it? And if they are available, he will ask the product key for windows 7, or I will be able to spend with my key for windows vista?

    I'd appreciate your help.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    There are free downloads of Windows 7, but you would need a product key to activate it. It is therefore of no use to you.

    You should contact the manufacturer of your laptop, in your case, Toshiba and get the Windows 7 Upgrade in the time to take advantage of the offer.

    This is the upgrade Option:

    How does the Windows 7 upgrade Option?

    The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program takes place June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time to upgrade Option.

    Unfortunately, it has expired.

    For more information about the offer, please contact Toshiba.

    With a Toshiba, you press 0 (zero) to the starter to start the process of recovery back to the factory settings.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  • Please specify: can I make Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit) to Windows 8 Pro (64 bit) for $40 with a clean install?

    Hiya!

    Looking to upgrade, but I don't want to upgrade in the usual way. I want a clean install.

    I don't want to format the HARD drive and install from scratch. I might even want to buy a SSD and install Windows 8 on my new SSD.

    Basically, is there a way to only pay $40, but get to install it properly?

    Is this ok? He's trying to force me to buy the OEM version?

    How does it work?

    Oh, also, I'm in England so I'll use the UK (£25) version rather than the American version, but it's the same I think.

    I was wondering if it will not work properly or if I have to buy the OEM version, because it does not recognize that I have had Windows 7 originally.

    How to reinstall Windows 8

    You have two options:

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

    Option 2:

    If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

    Option 3:

    A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

    See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

  • Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit usb. Where can I get?

    I plan on building a new pc for games. I have windows 7 ultimate, 64-bit. I don't really want to buy a DVD player, so I'm going with a USB method. I looked around. and many people have found a good one. I have, but can't find one Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. I looked on Amazon, Newegg, google. I can't find anywhere. If you know where I can get it. Please reply with the link. Thank you!

    What do you mean by only Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit?  As far as I know Microsoft provides only a copy 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 edition specific or iso discs. Microsoft has stopped selling copies of Windows 7 from Microsoft Store so, you buy and download the iso file from any other store or Web site. You can either purchase a license to retail or OEM. OEM license includes a single disk with a single architecture. To know the difference between selling retail and OEM copies check this post: what is the difference between Windows 7 retail and OEM?

    Visit this page to know how to burn Windows to USB and make it bootable: How to make a Bootable USB

    If you encounter an iso file, then you can mount it by selecting open with Windows Explorer which only works with Windows 7 or superior ortherwise you can extract iso with an extraction software.

  • How can I clean installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using a upgrade disc?

    Originally, I had a Windows Vista 64 - bit o/s office.

    I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit o/s

    The first time I ran this 'upgrade', I made the mistake of selecting the option UPGRADE instead of using the CUSTOM option.

    For some time since I've done the 'upgrade' I got BSOD problems including caused by video and WebCam drivers.

    This is why last week, I took the plunge and decided to reinstall Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using my UPGRADE disc (the disc is not FULL version)

    I selected CUSTOM

    I saw, I had two partitions:

    Disk 0 Partition 1: Win_RE

    Disk 0 Partition 2: CDrive (c :))

    I couldn't find an option to delete my partitions and perform a new installation.

    I ran this and finished installing fine but did not format my drive and it change named my windows to windows.old. Things seem to be ok on my PC, now that I've done this, and I don't take BSoD right now.

    However, I was told that I should be able to achieve a COMPLETE clean install delete partitions to force the OS to reformat and recreate the C: partition.

    The menu:

    Discount

    Load the driver (I have no idea what is this option)

    To make changes to partitions, restart Windows from the installation disc

    I could not click on an option to delete/reformat my partitions and thus abandoned the process.

    I then let the disc (forgive my ignorance) and restarted the PC. I dropped in the BIOS and set to boot from the DVD drive.

    This did not do anything to bring up the WINDOWS SETUP option. It would simply start Windows after that, I suspect, he couldn't find the exe file to start.

    Thus, while everything seems to work fine, I'm frustrated that I can't run a clean full install like what I'm doing doesn't work.

    If someone is able to give me advice on how I can get the installation routine to show this option which would be more useful.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    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)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.
