convert 32-bit vista to 64-bit reinstall them with

I have vista Ultimate 32 bit is there a way to convert it without having to reinstall windows 64-bit

N °

It is NOT an upgrade path.

32-bit and 64-bit are two completely different operating systems.

The only way to change Ultimate 32 bit to 64 bit ultimate is to do a clean install with a FULL Vista Ultimate 64 bit operating system.

    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.

    http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • How can I convert 16-bit files to 8-bit in 5 Lightroom?

    How can I convert 16-bit files to 8-bit in 5 Lightroom?

    You can actually convert a 16-bit image to 8-bit using Lightroom image. You can export a copy and make the copy an 8-bit image. Lightroom does not change the content of the image or makeup. The images that you import into Lightroom are kept in State of origin. But you can export copies in different configurations.

  • Is there a simple way to convert the bits to 16 bit depth?

    It seems there are specific methods PDF/BITMAP to convert 8-bit depth, but I can't find any documentation to make it easily the file as a whole. Is there a way to do this? I want to convert from 32 to 16 bit.

    I have the Image Processor Pro code that looks like this:

      // Bit Depth
      var bd = toNumber(task.@bitDepth) || 0;
      if (bd) {
        var bpc = doc.bitsPerChannel;
        try {
          if (bd == 8) {
            doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.ONE;
          } else if (bd == 8) {
            doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT;
          } else if (bd == 16) {
            doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.SIXTEEN;
          } else if (bd == 32) {
            doc.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.THIRTYTWO;
          }
        } catch (e) {
          LogFile.logException(e, "Error selecting bit depth " + bd);
        }
      }
    

    Then, later, I have this code that modifies the document mode so that you can save it as a bmp file:

      if (ImageProcessorOptions.JDI && ext == "bmp") {
        // We need to make adjustments depending the number of
        // bmp save bits selected
        if (saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.ONE ||
            saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.SIXTEEN ||
            saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.TWENTYFOUR ||
            saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.THIRTYTWO) {
          saveOpts.rleCompression = false;
        }
        if (saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.FOUR ||
            saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.EIGHT) {
          doc.changeMode(ChangeMode.GRAYSCALE);
        }
        if (saveOpts.depth == BMPDepthType.ONE) {
          if (doc.mode != ChangeMode.BITMAP) {
            doc.changeMode(ChangeMode.GRAYSCALE);
          }
          var cnvtOpts = new BitmapConversionOptions();
          doc.changeMode(ChangeMode.BITMAP, cnvtOpts);
        }
      }
    

    I don't think I've tested with PDF files.

    I hope this helps.
