  • Windows 10 upgrade for users of Windows 8?

    I use Windows 8 SL, in order to book the upgrade, I first have to upgrade to Win 8.1 SL and then I will be able to book the upgrade, is there a way by which I can book directly updated since my 8 SL victory because it is absurd to first download 3.2 GB win 8.1 and windows, then 10 , its just not going to lose my data.

    If there is a solution for this, please advise.

    You must be on win 8.1 upgrade to win 10

    There is no need to "reserve" anything.  This is purely marketing share MS to "encourage" users upgrade.  They will be happy to pass any OS eligible in the first year for free, and it will remain free for the life of the device when it was released on July 29
    *
    You win nothing in 'reserve' other that what gives Microsoft an email address for you spam to.  You won't get it any earlier, or there will be no other benefits.  In FACT, if you book, you can get later, as explained in this statement of Microsoft
    Once windows is available, some notifications will happen as soon as windows is available, others will be shut down in the weeks and months following

  • Wanted M6 Sleekbook: Can I get my free 10 Windows upgrade after a recovery of the system for Windows 7?

    Hi guys,.

    I have a HP Envy M6 Sleekbook. It came with Windows 7, and its warranty expired 2 years ago. I took the offer to get a free upgrade of Windows 10 a few months ago. Now, I want to exchange the hard drive out. I have a ready to run on a USB system recovery but its for the original configuration of Windows 7...

    My question:

    Is there a way I can share disks and get 10 back Windows without paying? HPO only allows you to create a system USB once recovery disk, so I can't make a new record of recovery with windows 10. When I get the factory Windows 7 running on the new hard drive, I'll be able to upgrade to Windows 10 new since I already had it and I wanted to just swap drives?  Thank you!!

    This link should help you get started: upgrade Windows 10  

    You can install Windows 7 with your recovery discs and then upgrade to Windows 10 or you can create a Windows [USB/DVD/ISO] 10 installation media and use it to make a 'clean' on the new hard drive installation.

    Notes on activation:

     

    • If you have never installed and activated Windows 10 on this computer before, you will see the activation screen. Enter your key of Windows 10 here. If you do not, but you have a valid 7, 8 or 8.1 key, enter it here instead.
    • If you have already installed and activated Windows 10 on this computer before, click on "I don't have a product key. Windows will activate automatically after installation.

    Windows 7 product keys are not sold separately. Where did you buy this product key from?

    Its possible, you may need to purchase a license MSDN/TechNet.

    On MSDN or TechNet product key

    They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are in fact retail licenses, but it is expected for a product specific Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet channel for professionals who pay a subscription. The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else. Unfortunately, no matter the conditions of license, people still abuse of the program, two key product gift or sell on auction sites. Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.

    In your case, what has probably happened is, you bought a license MSDN key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sold it to you probably sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use.

  • Pavilion dv7-6157 can be upgraded for the games?

    I bought my son the Pavilion dv7-6157nr two years ago and he has problems with graphics on the high-end gaming, he plays. They freeze or crash. It has 8 G DDR3 SDRam, 2 generation Intel Core i7 2.2 GHz - 3.10 turbo and a radeon HD 6770Ms graphics card. Video memory it says "itchable graphics"... What does that mean?  This computer can evolve in a way that would help the graphics? Y at - it a graphics card or driver upgrade? More graphics memory can be affected?

    I'm tired of hearing that suck laptops.

    Laptops are not really designed or constructed for the high end games. I doubt that adding memory will make much difference. Given that the two most important points (CPU and GPU) cannot be updated easily, it is a losing battle.

    The only other options I can suggest are...

    (1) a HP System Recovery to return the computer to a factory like State

    (2) do a clean install of WIndows 7 and try to use latest drivers for chipset manufacturers

    (3) buy a new computer that exceeds the requirements of game
