Can I use Windows 7 Upgrade media to upgrade a Vista computer that has not been upgraded to service pack 1? Can I use the option of custom Setup for Windows 7 Upgrade media? I would go from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Premium.

The computer on which I am trying to upgrade is vascular under Vista Premium, but it was never upgraded to Service Pack 1. He has a problem with PIECES that is caused by a defective ntdll.dll module and so the updates do not work. Windows Upgrade Advisor tells me I must update Vista SP1. I really don't want to spend the time to solve the problem of Vista. I would like to just do a clean install using the custom install option on the Win7 upgrade support.
Help.

Wrong forum. This post here instead, questions please: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7install/threads

That being said, you can not use an upgrade to Win7 edition to make a clean installation on a computer running Vista without SP1 installed, but you can buy a complete edition of Win7 (detail) and install it after formatting your HARD drive. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

  • Update on a laptop that has not been used in almost 1 year

    My husbands cell phone has not been used since last October. He was diagnosed with leukaemia, shortly after he had and has not shown an interest to learn to use it until now. It has Windows 8 and we want to do the free update of Windows 10. The laptop wants to 79 updates before we start download Windows 10. He has been on and downloading these updates for more than 3 hours and the screen still says 0% complete. Is it normal to take so long after being unused for so long? Husband and I went to the challenge of the technology. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    There are many updates and update process may take several hours. You can suddenly find that updates show that almost complete.

    If there is anything on the laptop that you want to keep:

    Download and create a Windows 8.1 installation media and do a clean install of it. See creating installation for Windows 8.1 media. Accepting any offer to install updates during installation. 8.1 Windows installation media last will accept the keys to Windows 8. If your key is in the BIOS of the laptop, it will be detected automatically.

    At the end of the installation, you will be prompted to upgrade to Windows 10 and will be able to do an immediate upgrade Windows 10 without updating the Windows 8.1 installation.

    Visit the support of the manufacturer of your laptop to see if there are model specific drivers you need. Installing Windows 8.1 and 10 will not provide the latest drivers.

    If you want to keep the existing installed applications and files, you can create 8.1 Windows installation media and run the setup.exe on it then in Windows 8.

  • update of windows xp on the computer that has never been updated for several years because the owner has never had access to the internet. I can just to SP3? SP2 has been installed ever

    My name is Pedro, help a good friend who has 3 small destop computers running windows XP. There is no internet at all since the installation of several years now. My question is: can I download SP3 and install it on 3 PCs similarly when they never received updates from the dell factory install? Or SP2 is a sine qua non before moving on later? In fact am still dealing with a place without internet access.

    Thank you very much for the help!

    According to the first article below, before you install SP3, you must have either the SP1a or SP2 installed on the computer.  You have not specifically need to have SP2 installed.  For more information, see the following articles:

  • Can I 'read' a control value that has not been committed?

    In short, I would like to specifically to bypass convention of LabVIEW which is a value only committed when the user moves the focus, press the button enter, click on a button to increment, etc..

    My specific scenario is I want to respond to button Up/Down/whatever of the events for a given control and enter the value so I can update the graphic interface in real-time as numbers are entered.

    I had thought about using the "Selected" the reference FocusObj property to remove the focus temporarily to force the value to be committed, but it seems to do nothing, at least not the way I use it. I also tried to use this property to choose something else entirely before selecting the original order, but once again, nothing.

    I imagine that an XControl MIGHT be able to do something like that, but I will abandon the effort before I'm dipping my toe into these waters.

    TLDR: Is it possible to cheat and capture the contents of a control, while the user is still typing in there?

    In addition to what nathand said, it is perfectly correct.

    If you need capture an event in the event structure, instead of 'Change of value' you better to handle the keydown event and take the property Numeric.Text for the property Value will not be changed, but you will have access to what is indicated on the control.

    If you do what johnsold says, then the value will be updated after each character, this only applies to controls of the channel.

  • Installation of vista Home premium errors!

    When you try to install windows vista family premium, it says

    "Device drivers are not found", it also says the operating system - UNKNOWN

    How can I solve this problem? I have the real windows vista upgrade cd.
    Help, please!

    The problem is the cd 'upgrade '.  It assumes that you have a system on the computer that has not been upgraded to Vista, XP or Windows 2000.   You need a full installation disc.  Vista is old, you might have trouble getting a Vista disc, but you might get lucky and they will send you a disc of Windows 7 If you call your computer support team (if it is a possibility).   Otherwise, install Windows 2000 over there and improve it with your upgrade disc.   It should work.

  • J 6480 / Vista Home Premium, HP DV 6928: creation of a unique facility

    J 6480 / Vista Home Premium, HP DV 6928, also HP LJ 1020 for printing in b/w normal, which is hard wired for laptop:

    Finally implemented my 6480 J.

    Read about some installation issues and a few thoughts on the wire «Wireless and network print transcript to meet the Experts»

    My setup for Internet is:

    I have Roadrunner Internet from Time Warner cable service (10 MB load speed), but prefer to have it hard plugged into my computer (unless it is convinced of the contrary) because it will be theoretically faster Internet than the T-Mobile Router (secure WPA).

    I do not download movies but watch some TV shows via HULU and Fox.Com, etc..

    Notebook is Wireless 'G '.

    My wireless router is T-Mobile (D Link) and I turned it off, disconnected, at the present time.  Works very well, but I opted for the apparent faster cable connection.

    You want to use the printer J 6480 wireless to save cables and improve features J 6480 can be placed far enough away from the laptop, but not more than 25 feet.

    I do a lot of scanning, mainly with the 6480 J. Infrequent fax and occasional color printing.

    This configuration will be possible?, ad-hoc wireless, or it will be better if I connect wireless via the T Mobile router, or go to the hard wired base approach?

    Security may not be a problem or should I be concerned?   I live in an apartment building and other people use WiFi, all secure.

    I understand that the 6480 J can be Ad Hoc wireless connected to my laptop and seeks to find the advantages / disadvantages of this type of set up if no.

    Your views will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Jim,

    Great idea to customize and securitize the Internet connection.  Use my link of D T Mobile for more security, I decided to go wireless, and so to have all greater security. It seems that no measurable loss of connection speed.

    I will try to implement the AIO as a Wi - Fi connection and hope that I am able to follow the online and other instructions.  My experience has been that it's usually me who Soundtracks, and Yes, sometimes the instructions to leave out some relevant step.

    I usually ask very detailed instructions and thanks for clarifying how to get IP address.

  • MS updates create chaos with Vista Home Premium

    In fact the things are worse now because Vista now refuses to updateat all that MS are probably still shoving stuff through to their hectic rate.

    I think it's the MS itself update procedure which is wrong. But I'm a model of PC I guess.

    I am OEM and am looking to buy a disc to try to questions of law. Is this a good idea or should I leave drowsy lie? I wish I'd stayed with XP.

  • Can I use Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Family Pack (3 users) to install Windows 7 Edition home premium 64 on a desktop computer running the OEM version of Windows Vista Home Premium 32?

    My desktop system is an Acer E700 Intel Quad Core 2.4 GHz with 4 GB of RAM and 1 Gig video running Vista Home Premium OEM 32 version. I plan to upgrade the hard disk of 1 tetrabyte before upgrading the OS.  If so, how should I do this?  I have to restore the backup to disk to the new disk before update for Window 7 64?

    My second office is already running Vista Home Premium 64 so this upgrade using the family must be right before correct?  Or do I need to backup to the subject programs before moving to Win7 64?

    Thanks in advance.

    You will need to do a reformat to perform installation and you reinstall the applications.  There has never been a way to upgrade from x 86 to x 64.  You will need to do is use your x 64 media to install Windows 7 on new hard drive, use your product key on the certificate of authenticity located on the side of the Acer desktop computer.  You will always be the OEM license terms, as you install the same Windows SKU.  Product keys are interchangeable between x 86 and x 64, but you will probably need to call to activate Windows after installation - usually the Internet activation does not work on current versions of Windows using the seller great modes of action.
