• Can I upgrade to Windows Vista or just get a new computer?

  As support ends for Windows XP can I upgrade to windows Vista or is supported ending for Vista also. If not, where can I get a version of Vista?

  Support ends for vista.  Standard support for vista has a long time ago.  The next option is win 7 and your system may or may not be able to run it.  You can check by downloading the the windows Upgrade Advisor

• I am running Windows XP Professional, can I upgrade to Windows 7 or Vista?

  The upgrade to Windows XP Professional edition

  I am running Windows XP Professional, can I upgrade to Windows 7 or Vista?  I want to run the iCloud but need a more recent version to do.  Thank you.

  The first thing to do is to download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor--> http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=20

  If your hardware and your applications are compatible with Windows 7 (and there are drivers available for your hardware devices) then you can buy a copy of Windows 7 and install it.  You will have to do what Microsoft calls a "custom installation" which is a facility clean Windows 7 in force and which is to format your hard drive.

  Thus, you must first save all your data (files, documents, music, photos, etc.) on another medium (the best is an external hard drive), and then import this into the computer after the installation of Windows 7.  Microsoft is a tool for this called Windows Easy Transfer, but you can use any method you like.

  Also, you must reinstall all of your applications from their original installation media.  If any of these applications has been downloaded, you'll need a copy of the downloaded installation package or a way to re - download.  You must also make sure that you have all your license keys.

  If you go ahead with this, one thing you need to do before your existing XP installation is more usable is to download and run Belarc Advisor (free).  Belarc is mainly intended to let you know if your security patches are up-to-date, it also gives you a list of license keys for a large part of your installed software.

  PS: Don't waste your time with Vista.  If you can not go to Windows 7, stick with XP.

  Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.

  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.

• Dv6t-7200 notebook want: how will I know if my computer can be upgraded to windows 10?

  I searched HP website to see if my computer can be upgraded to windows 10.  I also tried the plug assistant in charge of hp and he has just directed me to a page of sale on windows 10.  I don't want to mess up this computer and reload all the software, if it's not compatible.  Is there a list of compatible computers HP or an app that I can run to check?  I lost a lot of time looking for the HP support for this information.  Microsoft told to go to the manufacturer for this information.  Help, please.

• I have Windows XP Pro. Can I upgrade to Windows 7 without having to first install Vista?

  I have Windows XP Pro. and lose the connection with my printer (HP Officejet 6500 and I was told that I had to upgrade to Windows 7) Can I upgrade to Windows 7 without having to first install Vista?

  You can - clean installation however.  No direct path from Windows XP to Windows 7.

  If the machine is old, but - I wouldn't bother.  You will end up by it hate because it is slow and probably blame the operating system.

  The upgrade to Windows 7 is not a solution for the loss of connectivity to a printer - not a logic.

  Is what SPECIFIC printer this?

  • HP Officejet 6500 has e-All-in-One Printer - E710a
  • HP Officejet 6500 a Plus e-All-in-One - E710n

  • HP Officejet 6500 - E709n wireless all in one printer
  • HP Officejet 6500 - E709q wireless all-in-one printer

  If you download and install the latest appropriate WIndows XP complete software driver for your printer and maybe upgrade the firmware of the printer itself-, it would probably solve your problem.  If you use it as a wireless printer (it is printed through your network, but not connected by a cable [ethernet]) so you can check for updgrades to the firmware of your router (level) and reconfigure your network completely wireless if you start with a good foundation.

• Satellite M70 (PSM71) - can I upgrade it to Vista?

  I upgraded my computer laptop M70 (PSM71) of Windows XP Home, XP Pro.

  Can I upgrade it to Vista and how?
  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  First of all if you want to use Vista on this laptop, then you should do a clean install of Vista!
  Second, there is a 5.30 - VICTORY especially for Vista 32-bit BIOS update! This means that you must update the BIOS if you want to use Vista!

  Regarding the Intel WLan driver:
  Choose the one who is working on your laptop and who recognize the Wlan card!
  The driver WLan can also be found here:
