• On Windows 7 upgrade from vista 64 bit stops after that it says the settings and files of collection

  I am tring to install Windows 7 upgrade from vista 64-bit.  I'm to the point where it says collect files and settings, and it stops running, and then in the details it shows 3 files located in the c: users\my name\appdata\local\temp\WER followed by numbers.tmp, then version, appcompat or mdmp. (example: wer5090.tmp.version.txt)  He said that these files are the reason. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

  1 disable any security software before attempting to upgrade

  2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)

  3. disconnect all external devices before installing.

  4. check your hard disk for errors:

  Click Start

  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD

  Click on "Run as Administrator"

  At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  User account control permission

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  7. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  Also run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-7/Upgrade-Advisor.aspx

  If the upgrade continues to fail, you might want to consider doing a custom installation:

  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.

• upgrading from vista 32-bit to 64-bit computer win computer 7 B

  So I plan on selling my old computer (only for parts) and keep my driver's license for windows vista, then buy a new computer. My current computer is windows vista family 32-bit premium, but I want to go to windows 7 Home premium 64-bit on the new computer, I can buy the upgrade, or do I have to buy a new license? I'm also curious of what is required to install the upgrade, you need your vista license every time that install you it? Or is this a one-time thing?

  Hello

  There is no way to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit.

  It must be done with a clean install.

  Pre-installed Licenses OEM (HP, Acer, etc.) and the Microsoft System Builder OEM licenses are tied to the first machine that they are installed on and channels of license when this machine dies.

  OEM licenses are not transferable.

  If you have purchased your own license for sale retail of Windows and installed yourself, yes you can transfer it to another computer.

  Retail licenses are transferable.

  See you soon.

• What is the best operating system to upgrade from Vista? Should I buy Windows 7, 8 or 8.1?

  I have Vista 32 bit Home Premium.It does not support Windows Mail.Which is the best operating system to upgrade from Vista? Should I buy Windows 7, 8 or 8.1? I do not have a touch screen system, my system is five years old.

  Original title: upgrade

  Hello WilliamPopat,

  If you want to buy an another operating system, you would do better to buy the latest version, i.e., Windows 8.1 it doesn't matter that you don't have a touch screen like Windows 8.1 will work just as well on a desktop PC / laptop normal.

  However, before rushing and buying a copy of Windows 8.1, I suggest that you look at this link http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/11885-windows-8-upgrade-assistant-download-run.html the link above shows Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard you can download (free) and allows you to check that your PC is compatible with the latest version of Windows.

  According to me, one of my office machines is around 5 or 6 years and Windows 8/8.1 works fine on it.  However, it is best to check your own machine with the wizard upgrade just in case.

  Yes. There is no problem with their two different versions of
  Windows. The files contain not what anyone who still marks that
  Windows version they were created under.

  But there is a potential problem. If the files have been created with a

• 'Upgrade' from Vista to Windows 7 without a clean install

  Is it possible to upgrade from Vista Home Premium 64-bit for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I searched through the forums and most of the responses seem to confuse "upgrade" with "clean install". I bought the Windows 7 upgrade in order to keep all of my existing programs and settings in place not re - install everything from the beginning.

  Is it possible to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7? If this isn't the case, then I don't see how Microsoft can claim to offer a "upgrade path". I don't think a "clean install" is the generally accepted definition of an upgrade.

  It is NOT possible!
