Can I transfer a computer dead for a portable Win 7 Home premium OEM Windows XP?

I can only remote access / VPN my workplace of servers (Cisco), using XP & I can't download XP mode with Win 7 home premium. The XP box is dead since March, & it's the only way I can think to restore my ability to work from home.

How is it, you can only use Windows XP to access the VPN?  Cisco came out with Windows 7 and 64-bit software customers just now because so many people had the complaint of the old clients did not work.

Anyway - OEM licenses are tied to the first machine that they were installed on.  Regardless if this machine was used in a shooting Skeet or succumbs to a natural death, according to the agreement, if the original machine dies (cannot be retrieved), then the license also dies.

I watch (or find work to examine) get the latest version of the Cisco (5.0.07.0290) client, if that is the question.  Or you can locate an unused OEM or an unused license Windows XP retail and use VirtualBox to make a virtual machine on Windows 7.

    If you want to upgrade Vista to Windows 7, you must purchase a standard upgrade of Windows 7 at retail price.  Please see

  • The Windows Home Premium OEM for Windows Professional upgrade

    Normally, I go with the professional version of Windows.  After checking the differences between Windows 7 Edition Home Premium and professional, it appeared the only features I'd lose with Home Premium vs professional would be Bitlocker XP compatibility and the ability to join a domain.  I installed Home Premium 64 bit and it works fine.

    I recently updated my Acronis True Image backup software for the 2011 version.  This software is not particularly concerned for Windows 7 and it really don't like NAS devices.  A backup of maybe 10 gig of the NAS can take a day, if it is completed, and restores files are not reliable.  I decided sync critical files to the NAS to a local drive, where they could be saved easily.

    After much pulling hair I have determined that the file sync feature is missing in the Home Premium, as confirmed in several forums, including this one.  The lack of this feature is not mentioned in most graphic comparison of Microsoft, including a detailed version comparison matrix I found on this forum.

    Sync Center option is present in the Home Premium version, however, it does not allow the implementation of a "sync partnership.  It won't let me map a network drive, my local machine, but I already did.  lt is a version update is in order.

    It seems not be a cost-effective way for the owner of OEM upgrade to professional or ultimate edition.  Anyone with a computer bought in a retail store or a system integrator, likely an OEM license.  Him 'anytime upgrade' professional costs $90 while the ultimate load of $140.

    It's quite a chunk of change, especially for a story that should have been there all along and the absence of which is never mentioned by Microsoft.  I paid $110 for Home Premium OEM.  The Professional OEM version would cost $149.  If I had to do the upgrade anytime I would have to pay almost what I paid for the operating system and I will be stuck with an OEM version that cannot be moved to another system.

    Microsoft has a method to upgrade from OEM versions at a reasonable cost?  If I buy the $90 total time to upgrade that will the license be moved to another system if it loses their motherboard?

    Just to clarify, Bitlocker is available only in the enterprise and Ultimate editions.

    Not available in home edition Premium Windows 7 Professional features:

    -Domain join

    -Remote Desktop

    -Network backup

    -Encryption of system folders

    -Group Policy

    -Support up to 192 GB of RAM (64-bit version only)

    -Peer to peer support for up to 10 machines

    Microsoft has a method to upgrade from OEM versions at a reasonable cost?

    You have almost used up all available channels. The most effective being Anytime Upgrade.

    If I buy the $90 total time to upgrade that will the license be moved to another system if it loses their motherboard?

    You can transfer the license to another computer running Home Premium, but you can't move your OEM Home Premium license.
