  I lost my installation of Windows 7 OEM disk but have the product key.  Where can I find the official Microsoft page to download the ISO of Windows 7 Home Premium OEM files or the "retail" version

  Would be grateful if someone could send me the download link for windows 7 "RETAIL VERSION" (Home Premium). Thank you

  Note: Tried to download the copy of the page of recovery of Microsofts software, but he said "to join the manufacturing of PC if you have an OEM key.

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  When the upgrade is complete, install all the stuff of Toshiba order following facilities described in the instructions for Installations. I A200 with Vista Home Premium but I don't have a media Anytime upgrade and cannot test with my Satellite.

  Hello

  I have Windows Vista SP2 on my machine. can I he move to Windows 7 using Windows 7 Ultimate draft?

  A preliminary version is not a permanent solution and to this date can not activate or update properly.  You have two choices:

  (1) get you a Windows 7 upgrade version.  (2) Windows 7 Trial (see the last part of my post).

  With a choice, it is always a good idea to create a backup Image of your hard drive before moving from Vista to Windows 7.

• How can I upgrade Vista 32 bit to Vista 64 bit on a Sony laptop?

  Hi there; Please tell me how I can upgrade Vista 32 Bit to 64 bit Vista on a Sony laptop?
  Without having to install a new 64-bit version and then I lose my Sony laptop platform,.

  that would prevent me from making the web.

  (I like to keep all my installed Sony devices & drivers more bits & bats).
  The disc tells me that the upgrade function is grayed out and pass through the windows!

  But does that mean?

  Peut-there please help me someone?
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  There is no way to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit; they are different operating systems.

  It must be done with a new installation of the 64-bit operating system.

  First thing to do is to check with Sony to see if 64-bit drivers are available for your machine:

• Qosmio G50-115: how to upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate

  Dear friends,

  I am a teacher in a local college. We decided to buy the Qosmio (device name: G50-115, device number: PQG55E-01J00GEN, product group: QOSMIO) for our Department. We bought two so far for the trial. But my job is now on the sword.

  These laptops are pre-intstalled with Vista Home Premium SP1 and we need to upgrade these to Vista Ultimate. We have a DVD of Windows Vista Ultimate, but it's without SP1 on it. When I run and update, it rejects the upgrade because the installed version is newer than the version I have. Microsoft is no help, they said that you bought...

  Microsoft advised me to uninstall SP1, but I can't do that because there is no option in Control Panel to do this.

  If I install clean I won't lose nice software from Toshiba. I did a recovery disk, but do not think that I will be able to install this software. If I can download all necessary drivers, but I am interested in utilities/software installed at the factory.

  Would you please advise me what to do. Y did he we can get all the software of Qosmio on a DVD for instalation.

  Kind regards

  Dr. Sophie

  You should try to wake SP1 to the drive ultimate because I think that the problem is due the SP1 is already installed, but not on the final drive.

  You can do this with vLite: http://www.vlite.net/.
  With this tool, you can create your own with integrated service packs, patches, driver installation disc and more.

  Try this, it only takes a few minutes.

• Re: upgrade from home premium to Ultimate

  I bought my laptop with Win Vista Home Premium P300-156. This system will not switch to Ultimate Polish.

  You can upgrade your operating system, but Toshiba has nothing to do with it. Buy this laptop you bought the license for Vista Home Premium. If you want to have Ultimate you must purchase by Microsoft valid activation key.
