Thank you..

Yes, you can install Windows 7 64-bit.

You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

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 applications needed.

Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7
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.

    Hi avneeshdubey,

    ·         How Windows XP has been installed on your computer?

    ·         Was it preinstalled when you bought it?

    In order to have Windows XP 32 bits of the operating system installed on your computer, you must have a XP 32 bit installation CD.

    Check if you have the 32-bit Windows XP installation disk, or you can contact the computer manufacturer if it was preinstalled on the computer.

  • I have to reformat I can use transfer from windows 7 64 bit for windows vista 64-bit

    I have a few problems and have to reformat my desktop computer. I can't save anything, but I have most of my files and folders transferred to my new laptop. My question is, the Office has a VISTA 64 bit OS and the laptop has a 64-bit WINDOWS 7 OS. Can I use easy transfer to trans iron files & back files of the laptop on the desk.

    Thank you

    PETER

    Hi Peter,.

    Windows Easy Transfer generally works from a lower to a higher version of Windows or the same version of windows.

    You can try to download the Windows Vista 64 - bit easy transfer and try to transfer the files and folders and check if it works. If it does not from Windows 7 to Vista, then you must manually copy the files and folders using USB drives.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles.

  • Where can I find a Windows 7 64 bit for a Brother HL-1250 printer driver

    I have an old Brother HL-1250 laser printer. When I got my new computer it came with Windows 7 64 bit installed. I plugged the printer, Windows recognizes the new device, downloaded the drivers and installed the printer. It worked fine for about a year. Then, a month ago, I tried to print with it in Excel and Excel told me it could not connect to the printer. I tried all Microsoft diagnostics and they did not help.

    I decided to uninstall the printer and reinstall it. I first tried to install through Windows Update search a new driver. Who has failed, I got was a cryptic message that says "Fail", without further details. Then I tried to reinstall using the existing driver and got the same cryptic "Fail", once again with no details. I went on the site of Brother, he said brother has no driver, you have to get it from Windows Update. I went to the support for Windows 7, this site says to get the driver of brother. I did a search of the Knowledge Base and he set up a generic PCL driver he said would work. I downloaded and tried to install it, but it is 32-bit and windows wouldn't install it.

    So I'm puzzled. Anyone know where I can get a driver 64 bit Windows 7 for the Brother HL-1250, or why the print has stopped working in the first place? TIA

    Have you tried this driver?

    I'm on Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate with SP1 installed.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Note: I had to do a complete repair of my operating system with the installation disc of Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate SP1 a few weeks ago. This should not have such an effect.

    Also, when I try to install 6.0.3 I get this message:

    PS: Already uninstalled my AV well as disabled to Defender. No other AV or similar tool is running. No change in behavior. VMware Player 5.5 installs ok, but cannot be updated. VMWare Workstation has this issue too and forced installation gives the uninstall error "MSI" failed. " No suggestion works here. Removed all the entries from the registry and the file system. It seems no more, I missed something, or there is a flag somewhere unrelated to "VMware" something in the system hidden.

    PPS: I am full administrator.

    No worries.

    I checked again the LUA file and noticed that it says version 5.0.0 to version VMware Player. I guess that there is a big mess in my system. I finally managed to install version 7 with a little force. Here my steps:

    1. open the cmd command prompt (to be on the safe side as administrator * lol *).

    2 extract the installation package:

    \VMware-Player-7.0.0-2305329.exe/e \VMwarePlayer7

    3. go to the folder<>

    4 run the command (if the installation is not allowed)

    VMwarePlayer.msi EULAS_AGREED = 1

    I hope this helps others as well
