Do I need to get all updates to windows on the new VISTA system before moving on to Windows 7?
Hi , I have a brand new 'Pavilion Elite m9300t PC with TV/PVR' always in the zone since the 2008-09-02 (don't ask why, long story). There "Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium (64 bit)" on it. I bought a software "Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade designed for Windows Vista" (box). It seems clear that the system accepts the 64-bit Windows Update 7
My question is, when I turn firstly on this machine, I have to spend hours updating the Vista operating system with all the Windows updates until I put in the Windows 7 Upgrade? Or can I just simply immediately install Windows 7 Premium on the new brand new OS Vista from HP?
I ask because I don't want to spend hours in Vista with Windows Update updates when I have not, before using Windows 7 Upgrade disks.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,-Paul
Hello:
No, you don't have to do anything other than the upgrade to Vista. If you are brave, you are better off getting a clean install and wiping out Vista anyway. If not simply put in the drive of W7, let an automatic upgrade on place and you're ready to go. You will have enough updates W7 to treat once the PC is upgraded to W7.

Currently have v.8 CS Photoshop and Lightroom 2 v.2.4. In order just to work with the new operating system, please inform for updating both.
Hi R0w1% 40nd,
Adobe Photoshop CS v.8 and Lightroom 2 v.2.4. are very old software and the operating system you are using is the most recent, so there may be compatibility issues that adobe has not tested these applications on newer operating systems.
The installer for Adobe Photoshop CS v.8 and Lightroom 2 v.2.4. are no longer available.

I just bought a new computer phone n want to spend all my outlook folders to the new unit. How can I do
Put the .pst file from your old machine on a USB key with sufficient capacity or burn it to a CD - R. Copy the .pst to your new computer. Place it in your directory My Documents.
Open Outlook on the new computer and set up your email accounts. Get the settings from the server of your Internet service provider's Web site if you do not know. There is usually a tutorial to set up different email clients.
MVP Hal Hostetler:
1. When you copy the. Your old HD to the new PST file, place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing. PST files; crush one. PST file that is in use can cause profile corruption.
2 should NEVER use Outlook Import and export functions with. PST files. This feature is broken and has been for some time. It often helps translates into corruption of the profiles, the more you lose the following data:
1. custom Forms
2 custom views
3. links between contacts and activities
4 receipt dates on mail
5 birthdays and other events in the calendar
6. journal connections
7. distribution listsAll you need to do is open Outlook on the new machine, go into "file |" Open | Outlook data file ", browse to your old." PST, and then click OK. You now have access to all your old data. You can do this. Default PST file and continue to use it, or drag and drop its content in the new 2007 Outlook created during installation.

to delete the update number 2 after the new update has been entered IE number 6 of the same program
original title: he is allowed to delete the previous updates of filesHi Carl,
I suggest you go through this article to Java which can be useful.
Why should I remove old versions of Java in my system?
Removal of previous versions of the .net Framework is based on the applications that are running on the computer.
For applications, if you have an application based on any .NET Framework on the computer, you cannot delete it since you have need to support the application runs correctly.
.NET framework 3.5 SP1 includes .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and 3.0 SP2. This means that .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0 can not be deleted because they are the sine qua non of .NET Framework 3.5 SP1. If you have any application based on .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, please do not remove .NET 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1.
I would also not to uninstall the security updates that are important for the security of your computer.
