Details on the windows upgrade process 8

I bought a HPE Pavilion pc h8 h8-1240 on 24 July. I registered on the site of the windowsupgrade offer. I read that you will need to provide the brand and the product model. Also the product key of windows 7. How can I find it?

Look at the back of your PC. There should be a Microsoft Windows OEM sticker here. The long series of groups of five alphanumeric characters is your product activation key.

  • You want to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 Professional. I ran the Windows Upgrade Advisor, and he told me that I can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium and Ultimate. Why not professional?

    I want to install Windows 7 Professional.  I ran the Windows Upgrade Advisor, and he told me that I can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium and Ultimate. Why not professional? Or is this correct?

    You can still install Windows 7 Pro, but it requires a custom installation. This will remove all your programs (you will need to reinstall them), but you can save your files and settings to external storage before doing so.

    If you want to make a place in the upgrade you will need Home Premium or Ultimate.

  • problem with the windows upgrade assistant 8 on XP

    try using Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard download. Download OK, but when run gives unloading the dialog box ' encountered error / unspecified error. "

    try using Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard download. Download OK, but when run gives unloading the dialog box ' encountered error / unspecified error. "

    Before we go much further in troubleshooting - maybe you can prevent future question by answering a few questions (and think of them...)
     
    What is the brand and model of the computer system in question?
     
    The amount of memory (live RAM) system there?
     
    How much space (total and free) hard disk is the system have to 'C '?
     
    You have the key media and product installation of Windows XP stored in a safe place (turn off the computer itself) right now?
     
    You have the installation media for everything that you have installed on this computer stored in a safe place (turn off the computer itself) right now?
     
    You produced all keys or serial numbers, you may need to install the software you own / have installed now keep in a safe place (turn off the computer itself), at the moment?
     
    Have you checked with the manufacturer of the computer (or individual component manufacturers) that they take over the computer (or the individual components - such as the video card, sound card, network devices, etc. inside the computer) Windows 8 and they have device drivers that will allow the Windows 8 operating system properly to communicate and use said components?
     
    Did you check with the manufacturers of software for each software (programs), you have only installed the current version of their software work (or one you have / use would be wise to check on) Windows 8, and they support their software under the said operating system?
     
    You have a backup of everything on the machine that is important to you - such as your emails, contacts, documents, spreadsheets, photos, drawings, your data, your music, your videos, you Internet favorites/bookmarks and everything else the stuff you've collected on this computer over time that you used it?
     
    I ask this because you are about to perform a NEW installation (format, departure fees, etc.) on the machine in question.  You will need to install all the programs that are now in place and work as he was never on this system.  If it turns out that the machine is unbearable (for some reason-including speed, or simply don't like Windows 8) you will need a way to format it again and install the original (Windows XP) operating system and all the programs back.  And, of course, you probably want your stuff back also.

  • On the 11i upgrade process

    Hi all

    I have a few questions about the upgrade process, we have Applications 11.5.10.2 on 9.2.0.8 database installed on IBM AIX 5.3 Server.

    As you know extended support requires patches for applications and data base. My first question is; should I upgrade database to 10g or 11g, is there an advantage of the differences between them, all interoperability issues?

    My second question is should I do upgrade the databases first or after patches of applications according to the note: 883202.1 (reference Patch minimum prerequisites for Support extended on Oracle eBusiness Suite 11.5.10)?

    And my last question is; I tried running DBUA and DBCA just for the test but two files point to same ORACLE_HOME and hurt, I can fix these files but I think that other dependent files will also point wrongly ORACLE_HOME, is it a utility (autoconfig?) to fix these files?

    Thanks a lot for your help

    Please provide me with a solution for the problem mentioned above. I tried Googling for the same thing, but there are not enough posts about it.

    Check and see if the default Microsoft GINA has been replaced, to edit the registry, you have to mount the boot disk not in another machine to Windows or use a disc like UBCD4Win PE.  See here for easy to follow instructions on how to modify remote installation no Startup registry: http://www.rwin.ch/xp-live/regedit.htm

    If GINA is ok, you can try to restore the computer to an earlier date, or you might have to do and an upgrade on the spot (relocation) of the operating system.

    Hi Alex,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft answers Forum!

    From my research, I suggest you try the following steps.

    Method I - execute a System File Checker tool.

    To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your

    password or click on continue.

    3. at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    Once the completed scan, a test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved

    See this link for more information about the System File Checker tool.

    Let me know if it worked

  • I will be able to qualify for the Windows upgrade free 10?

    Hello world

    First time display, but I have a question that I would really like an answer to. I have a laptop pretty old (Sony VAIO 2009 or 2010) and it came with Vista, but it was a Windows 7 free upgrade, so it is running Windows 7. I saw that Windows 7 users would be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free and I was wondering if this method applied to me. Would I be able to upgrade to Windows 10 free with my old product ID? Thank you.

    Thanks for the reply. I'll be also able to use it on a generation of the computer that I plan on building using my old product ID (from the laptop) to this topic, or I have to buy another Windows operating system?

    No, you can buy a full license for this computer. The free update is installed just for devices with Windows 7 or 8.1.

    A work around is to install the current Preview on the machine and qualify for the final.

    My husband must have some kind of bug in his computer as Kaspersky Internet Security, when he went on the internet, gave him a choice to block something that was causing a problem.  When he clicked "Block" - he got the BLUE SCREEN!  Is anyway for him to cancel it and save all her pictures on his computer?

    It has a Dell Dimension 8400 computer about six years.
    ----
    Sorry to bother you, but this time we did shut down his computer and restarted everything was fine.  Apparently he had clicked on something like 'do not allow' or however its formulation that I do not see.  So now we have to probably save photos and things out of his computer and take out the drive to reinstall Windows XP because there still be some sort of bug in there because we are getting popups saying some program are eager to enter the passwords section.  I don't know much about it but try to fix it!

    I looked into Kaspersky and ran a browser Configuration and analysis of the vulnerability in his computer and found that there was a kind of 'control popup' in Internet Explorer that had been added in the settings of the pop-up window. -I deleted who.

    I saw a setting in Kaspersky has been changed by default (they say "changed by the user, but did not change). -I have put all Kaspersky setting at default.

    So now, we hope the computer that my husband will work very well in the future because it's good now, even after rebooting.

    Now, we will have VERY serious about all of his photos on his backup external hard drive!

    If we have more problems with that, I'll be back but for now, everything is GOOD!
