Can I use Windows 7 on netbook using full installation of Windows 7?

If I upgrade desktop for Windows 8 mt, when available, can I then install Windows 7 on my netbook.

I have the complete installation of 7.  It would be nice to update the Windows 7 XP netbook.  I, after all, paid for Windows 7.  Just a thought

You will need to buy a full version of Windows 8 in order to make your Windows 7 license transferable to another computer.

    I lost my laptop computer restore disc and it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Can I use the installation disc for my desktop with my laptop serial number?

    My title says it all. I have an old HP laptop that they do not send to restore the disc more (I don't know yet I had one; his old laptop from my brother) and I have an installation disc for my new PC. I have a Windows XP Home edition SP2 installation disc. However, as the hard drive of my laptop broke down, I don't know what version of windows it was. I think it should have been an OEM version and the sticker says it was Windows XP Home Edition.

    Now, anyway I tried to install my installation on laptop computer disc, offering series of laptop computer but now it asks me to activate. Will it work if I activate it?

    Thank you

    Unless you are lucky enough to know someone who has a generic OEM drive, which you can borrow, I don't see a practical solution for you.  I advise you to spend the money to buy one, even if you could find one to buy from a reliable source (not eBay!).  Although a generic OEM disc should work with your product key, there is no guarantee that it will work with your product key.

    If your laptop can be retrieved through a restore partition, and you can't borrow a disc that will work with your product key, then you have pretty much exhausted all reasonable or practical options.

    I finally did! I borrowed a copy of a generic OEM drive, through activation and it is!

    Thank you much for the help...

    Now I've done could you help me more? Say now, I returned the drive OEM back (don't want to make an illegal copy) and want to be able to use my current system installed to generate a system disk that will allow me to avoid all the problems I've had up to now. What would you recommend? I've read a few articles on other forums (I did some research!) but is a little confusing. I hope you could help.

    Thank you

  • can I use one installation of windows on multiple computers.

    Can I use a single installation of windows media 7, 8 (setup) on multiple computers and then use their individual serial keys I bought. Just in case a dvd breaks.

    This is the product key that doesn't count installation material.  However, the computer must be able to support the version of Windows that is on the DVD.  For example, 32 - bit or 64 - bit.  invariably, you need spend a little time looking for specific drivers too the web site of the manufacturer.

  • can I use an installation cd with separate key codes?

    One of my friends got his stolen cds of XP operations, but she still has the code key package.  Now we need to reinstall the xp operating system, can I use my cd of xp with its key code?

    This is a forum for office, but given that the answer is short and simple, I believe that nobody will mind if we make an exception.

    If your installation disc is in Siena, no problem.  You must match the edition (home to home, Pro to Pro, Media Center, Media Center, etc.),and that you need to match the type of license (full retail full retail or upgrade of retail to upgrade of retail or OEM to OEM).

    Can someone point me to a download link for the universal OEM installers images or those individual.

    For Windows 7, take one of the downloads MSDN and remove the ei.cfg from the image file, then burn the image.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 4: can I get Windows Vista separately?

    Hello

    When I install the product recovery CD, it installs Windows Vista and many programs that I don't need.
    I just want to install Windows Vista (even excluding pilots).
    So, can I get the installer of Windows Vista (Home Premium) separately?

    Thank you

    Hello

    There are no separately installation program. You are not alone with this opinion and no you don't have to use any installed stuff. I remove also all the stuff, I didn't need.

    Install the OS by using the recovery CD and then download all the updates from Microsoft to ensure that everything is up to date and remove all the stuff that you don't need. Believe me I do the same.

    Just for example - I have a satellite that comes with Windows XP Home edition and I did follow:
    1. installed OS using supplied recovery DVDs
    2 installed all updates from Microsoft
    3 deleted applications, I didn't need
    4. install all the applications I need for work (office, Nero and so on)
    5 installed Norton Ghost
    6 created my own recovery image

    Now I can reinstall my OS and after 30 minutes, everything is there. In the case of some virus or any other strange question, I install new OS (on the C partition). All the data saved on the D partition are still there and can be used after installation of the image.

    It is not possible to download Windows 7 on a DVD. If you want to install Windows 7 on the computer, you must purchase a Microsoft installation disc.

    You would think that a Microsoft Support engineer would know what is available in the Microsoft store.  But maybe not.

    If your b/f to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7, you can buy Windows 7 directly from Microsoft and download.  You can download an ISO file which can be burned to a DVD if you have a software that can make this engraving.  Of course, with your b / f machine works do not, you will not be able to use Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to determine if your computer is capable of running Windows 7.

    If I misread one of Microsoft stores information, you can also get a file ISO downloadable here (though of course, you need to purchase a license from Microsoft): http://techpp.com/2009/11/11/download-windows-7-iso-official-direct-download-links/

    In the FAQ:

    THE FORMAT OF ISO DOWNLOAD

    For different products, you can download your software as an ISO file, which is a single file that contains all the files Setup for your application. Download your software as an ISO file makes backup of your files on a DVD or a USB storage device that is easy.
