  I bought the computer hp laptop dv5 recently the config. is 3 GB of ram, 250 GB HDD, processor turion, ati radeon HD3450 & card mother amd. I have the query that, initially, the operating system installed on my machine was vista home basic 32-bit. then after I've updated in windows 7 RC1 now I want to downgrade in Vista Home Basic Edition again. can u tell me the ways on how to do with this thing. my need is I want a downgrade frm 7 to vista home basic and I don't want to do a clean install of Vista Home Basic, because I have my entire data on drive c. ND it's hard for me to backup large amounts of data. I have also 2 discs of recovery came with my laptop. In addition to this, please tell me if I can move from 32-bit vista to 64-bit according to the config. given above.

  You must do a clean install to Windows Vista Home Basic to Windows 7.

  External hard drives are a good way to back up large volumes of data

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Vista 32-bit to 64-bit Vista is NOT an upgrade path.

  You will need to BUY a FULL 64 bit Vista operating system version and do a CLEAN install of it.

  Ask the manufacturer of your computer are them, 64-bit versions of Vista support in your model of laptop.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Online 24/7 support for home and individual HP products

  Ask them how to use your recovery/s drive.

  Each manufacturer has their own way of doing a recovery back to factory settings.

  Normally, you start from the disc and follow the instructions to perform a recovery.

  See you soon.

• Downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows Vista

  Hello

  I want to ask something about the downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows Vista Edition Home Premium!

  My laptop is Satellite L510. When I bought it, it came with Windows Vista Home Premium as its OS so I already created a recovery disk.
  Now, if I update to Windows 7 and if I want to downgrade to window Vista... often I just use this recovery disc to format to Windows Vista everything as before?

  Because they do not have the Windows Vista installation disk when I bought this laptop.
  And I want to ask now the window Vista already got a healthy recovery partition in my right HDdrive? If I update to Windows 7 then did the Window Vista healthy recovery partition is still there, or only the restore disc that I create before you reformat Windows Vista Home Premium box?

  Thanks to all who try to answer my question!

  All new laptops are shipped without DVD upgraders and everyone must create one. This is why Toshiba has designed small Creator called Toshiba Recovery tool. With this tool you can create recovery DVDs and use them for the installation of the OS more far.

  Whenever when you use, you'll have to factory settings and it will be like on the first day when launch you for the first time.

  When you have this recovery media, you can do whatever you want and, of course, install Win7 with HARD drive. One day, when you want to have Vista again just use created recovery DVD and you will have factory again.

  When you bought your laptop recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDRecovery. This image can be used to install Vista with the factory only settings. When you install Win7 these files can no longer be used and Vista must be installed from recovery created DVDs.

• Wireless device does not work after downgrading from Windows 7 to Windows Vista.

  Original title: wireless device does not.

  recently, I got my os from windows 7 to vista, now my wireless device does not work. I checked the Device Manager and the report shows that my network controller driver is not installed and the modem on high definition audio bus device. I tried to install it, but in vain. What should I do?

  If your computer manufacturer does not have Windows Vista drivers available, you're probably out of luck.  Without drivers for these devices will not work.

HP maintains no official presence on this forum and it is unlikely that HP will respond in an official capacity. No response from an employee of HP represents his own opinion and not that of HP.

  If computers were purchased with Microsoft's Downgrade rights, they would be shipped with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed in the factory and restore HP 8/8.1 Pro 64-bit Windows included media. You will need create the restoration of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit from at least one of these computers support.

(It "installs" pre-installed HP OEM factory original key and certificate from your factory installed OS to your new installation of Windows. This HP OEM key and the OEM HP certificate, as well as the BIOS is what allows your computer to HP be factory preactivated.)
