• The upgrade from Windows 2000 Professional to Vista__

  I'm running Windows 2000 Professional and want to upgrade to Vista. According to Microsoft: If your computer is running Windows 2000 Professional or Windows XP Professional x 64, you are entitled to a copy upgrade from one edition of Windows Vista corresponding or better, but a clean install is required. How can I get this upgrade copy?

• Why can I switch from Win Vista Home Premium (64) to Win 7 Home Premium (64)?

  I went through all directions and I still stop during the verification of compatibility of the system. Sometimes never really part of the installation. I checked just like other posts in case of a problem, and I can't understand what is wrong.

  Thanks for all the help and suggestions Hula Baloo...  I'll try one at a time. Worst case scenario would be that I have back up all my files and programs and try for a complete install rather than an upgrade... it'll be more work on my part but I have heard it will be a better and cleaner installation... ah... nothing is easy right?

  Thanks again!

• Is it possible to upgrade from Windows 98 or Me to Windows Vista?

  I'm having a discussion with a colleague.  Does anyone know if it is possible to do an UPGRADE of Windows 98 and Windows ME for Vista?  Or you have to do a clean install of Vista?  Can you upgrade from Windows 98 and Windows ME to XP and then move from XP to Vista?  Any help would be appreciated.

  original title: the upgrade to Vista

  I don't know if it is possible to upgrade 98 Me XP, but I know you can't straight upgrade 98 to vista. You can only pass a single version, so it should be XP to vista.

• Can I upgrade to windows vista home Premium 32 bit on 64-bit operating system

  Im running windows 7 Home premium on opus 64-bit system.  Can I upgrade to windows vista Home premium 32-bit...

  Hello

  This is not an upgrade from Windows 7 to Vista.

  It is a downgrade that Vista is the previous operating system before Windows 7 came out and you would have to BUY a COMPLETE of Vista version and do a fresh install of Vista; but before you buy Vista, check first that your computer manufacturer provides the Vista drivers for your model computer.

  Microsoft sells more Vista; Try Amazon.com.

  This is the upgrade Option:

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista, as you say you have problems with Vista.

  This can help you (download files and make your own DVDs):

  http://www.heidoc.NET/Joomla/technology-science/Microsoft/57-Windows-Vista-direct-download-links

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

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

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  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.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista 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

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Can I switch from Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit?

  I wanted to basically triple - check the compatibility of my laptop current in what concerns the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.

  As a student, I can get windows 7 professional 64 bit for £30. Their moment I'm running a 32-bit version of vista Home premium, and I wanted to confirm my laptop is up to running a 64-bit operating system, and that the upgrade from a 32-bit version of Vista to a 64-bit Windows 7 version is also possible.

  I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, and it is said that everything should be correct regarding my hardware specifications.

  The results of the 64-bit Upgrade Advisor version:

  -"Your graphics card supports Aero de Windows interface.
  -Processor: 2.1 GHz
  -3.0 GB of RAM (I know it's 4 GB but 32-bit vista can not handle the truth)
  -80.7 GB free on C:

  The consultant warn me that I'll have to do a clean install, rather than an upgrade. I'm not worried about it, I can back up my files to an external hard drive.

  What I want to know is, I will certainly be able to upgrade Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, with the upgrade kit here http://store.digitalriver.com/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayHomePage&Locale=en_GB&SiteID=msshgb at the bottom of the page?

  Thanks for your help.

  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.

  Upgrade paths:
  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. Also, you can make the downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com
