• Can I up grade to Windows 7 Professional for Vista Home Premium?

  My daughter gave me Windows 7 Professional for Christmas.  My HP laptop is a little older than a year.  Read the info seems to be saying that I can't move from Vista Home Premium?  I have not opened the package.  I allow to share and save money?  Or is there a way for me to install installing first as a base and then upgrade to the professional?

  Can not perform a direct upgrade to Windows 7 Professional to Windows Vista Home Premium - a "clean" installation is necessary.  Please see: upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 (custom installation).  The only version that can perform a direct upgrade from Windows Vista Home Premium is Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  Please download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor and follow the recommendations contained in the report it generates.

  Hello Pacone

  According to Walter, Microsoft Windows Vista comes with Media Player 11. So please could you clarify the application you are using? The version you gave I guess maybe it is Windows Movie Maker. Here is the link for Windows Live Movie Maker 2011. You can download the latest Live Movie Maker from here. http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Movie-Maker?OS=other

  Your suggestions to other users did nothing to solve the problem. I always get: 8000FFFF with update microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium.  I ran Microsoft fixit as well as your suggestions for the record of change of name (updated - and reset file) without resolution.  It shows that I have Service Pack 2, but it don't did me not run updates since 2009...  I tried the steps with or without Norton anti-virus on.

• Printing for Vista Home Premium 32-bit network: Blank document or disappears from the queue

  I'm having trouble printing large format HP DeskJet 1000 c, which is connected via a parallel cable to my Media Center/DVR PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit SP2 on my printer. I connected with the success of this printer to two different computers, a desktop PC running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - bit SP2 and a laptop Mac OS x 10.5.8. I can print from the local computer very well, but when I try and use the printer on the network, one of two things happens depending on what machine I try and print from:

  1. from Vista 64 Desktop: printing the task appears, treats and disappears from the queue to the local printing on PC DVR. Printer advance a sheet of paper as if he were about to print, then waits with a power indicator light flashes. If you send a new job network, the tip sheet of paper is ejected and the process begins again. If you send a new job locally, the tip sheet of paper is ejected and the local job will print normally.

  2. from Mac OS x: printing the task appears, treats and disappears from the queue to the local printing on PC DVR. Printer does nothing.

  Although the process of networking of printers with OS X 10.5 and Vista is a bit more complicated (annoying) it was with XP, I am able to print from the Mac to a printer on the Vista 64 machine very well. Similarly, PC DVR allows you to print to the printer of the Vista 64 computer and a printer connected to my Mac desktop.

  I checked the HP site for drivers and since it is a quite old printer, there is no listed for any operating system newer than Windows 2000 (which a pilot has been included with the operating system). Any ideas as to why the PC DVR will not take of the network print jobs? Unfortunately, this complex printer (3 printers, 4 machines) installation is somewhat needed due to the possibilities of each printer and how my home office is laid out. If they did a multifunction, printer laser color large network format, I could sell my soul for what it... But I'm not aware of such a machine available to mortals.

  There is a difficulty that recently came on the HP Forums for 64-bit Vista:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/printer-all-in-one-software-and/DeskJet-710-720-810-820-100-series-printers-patch-for-64-bit/m-p/203377#U203377

  All you have to is to download the mentioned file and replace some dll with those provided.

  The question remains with OS X, but I do not expect that Microsoft will provide no support for this.

• Windows Update that affect Internet for Vista Home Premium and Windows 7 connectivity

  Hi, I have two machines in one desktop running Vista Home Premium and a laptop running under windows 7.

  After you apply the Windows updates a few days ago, I was not able to get internet connectivity using my Vista desktop computer.

  I was able to get a wireless on the Windows 7 machine, but to test the router I disabled wireless and tried a wired connection and it did not work.

  If I restore the installation of updates on both machines before the problem no longer exists, but it is clearly not a solution.

  Can someone please help, note that I have established that the router works and all the cables are OK. Thank you.

  I had a very similar experience. See the thread I posted and a solution I found:

  I'd be interested to know if the solution worked for you.
