dv5-1010us upgrade to Windows 7 sequence issue
I have a laptop dv5-1010us under Vista Home Premium. I bought Windows 7 Professional and want to upgrade. My question is of two parts: (1) should I upgrade all the drivers available for Windows 7 compatible versions before upgrading the operating system or after? and (2) is there a HP Web site that shows all the drivers that must be updated for my laptop model and allows me to download?
32-bit Windows drivers:
http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?OS=4062&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3753629
64-bit Windows drivers:
http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?OS=4063&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3753629
When upgrading the operating system to Windows 7, Windows 7 automatically updates the necessary drivers. However, I would suggest that you run before Windows Upgrade Advisor try the upgrade:

Windows 7 upgrade of Windows 8 (license issue)
I've updated from Windows 7 to Windows 8 using the upgrade package (download version). I would like to install the Windows 7 OS on another PC, that aloud?
Thank you both for your quick responses. The Windows 7 operating system is a commercial version. Yes, as far as I understand. If I had to re - install the Windows at some point, I need the operating system Windows 7 first, before I can upgrade to Windows 8.
Well, that depends, if you were to format the drive, Yes, you will need to reinstall Windows 7 first then repeat the upgrade to Windows 8.
You can reinstall Windows 8 using the following method if:
· Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)
· Click settings
· Click change PC settings
· Click general in the left column
· In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start
Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.
It would also mean I could install the upgrade of Windows 8 on another machine if I wanted to and then just leave the other PC with operating system Windows 7 above.
That is right.
Reason being, is that my colleague does not fit on Windows 8 so maybe in the future I re - install Windows 7 on my PC of colleagues and use the upgrade of Windows 8 (hoping that I can not download this again since the MS Store) on my Lap Top that I would use.
As long as the license of Windows 7 is re-installed, you are free to transfer the Windows 8 upgrade elsewhere. You can always reinstall it by returning to the reception of your e-mail when you made your purchase or:
Go to the order summary page, you can find your product key:
You can download it from there and use your product key to upgrade:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only
Is also accepted, or is the upgrade license tied to the machine on which I originally upgraded Windows 8?
No, as long as the license of Windows 8 is removed from the machine, you can transfer it to another machine.

Inspiron 14z upgrade to Windows 10 - device issues
In the newly deployed GetWindows10 application, there is an option to 'Check PC' - when I chose this option on my Inspiron 14z, I get:
Windows 10 will work on this PC
This PC can be improved, but there may be some problems.
Devices of
These devices are not completely compatible with Windows 10
AMD Radeon HD 7570 M (with an icon beside it bluetooth?)
You're going to have problems with your screen
These devices may not work properly after the upgrade
Bluetooth Server (with the same bluetooth icon)
Intel Corporation
I am not inclined to be updated if it will translate into problems with my screen OR my bluetooth. Any change that Dell is going to release updated drivers to solve these problems? Other options?

Hello, I have a Pavilion DV5-1010US notebook, and I want to upgrade the RAM. According to my product page, I think this laptop has 2 memory slots and could hold 8 GB of RAM. When I check the HP site, I find the 2 GB memory modules of replacement for what is that my laptop has already. I really want to upgrade to 8GB maximum but I don't know what 4 GB memory module is compatible with my machine. Could someone please give assistance? Thank you.
Hello:
What I like to do is run the free memory Crucial scanner. It will scan your PC and then to declare what type of memory you need.
You can buy it from them because they guarantee compatibility.
No muss, no fuss.

Hey mooredale24
do not post in all capitals
It is considered as shouting and is difficult to read
and only after the same question ONCE in these forums
read the response to your other post
Hey mooredale24
they are two completely different operating systems.
You can switch from xp to vista, if you meet certain conditions
under microsoft link has the vista minimum system hardware requirements for you to check if you have
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/products/system-requirements
and as you mention HP go to their Web site below and see if your model computer has vista drivers available for him
http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/support.html
If it is not an hp computer go to the manufacturer of the brand of your computer and do the same
If no vista driver is available, do not upgrade to vista
link below has xp to vista upgrade paths
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/upgrading-from-Windows-XP-to-Windows-Vista
and microsoft sells more vista
you'd have to try online on amazon.com, ebay etc or ask at your local computer store
Windows 7 is now available
Why not visit if you are compatible with this operating system
Here are his requirements

I have upgraded to Windows 10 64 Pro and all my apps Adobe has stopped working; I get the popular "MSVCP110.dll is missing" issue; I uninstalled everything, including the creative cloud, rebooted the PC and installed it back again! Same thing! I tried this several times. I'm really stuck! Can someone help with how this is solved; I follow online (two solutions) and tried both; not good! No matter what I do, I get the error! The rest of the applications say they are absent from the other files like this; It seems that there is something to do during the installation that keeps this issue alive!
Run the command to check the file system once:
https://support.Microsoft.com/en-in/KB/929833
Also repair Microsoft Redistributable packages from the control panel > programs and features.
If not installed, download and install the Visual C++ 2013 package.
Let me know if you need more assistance.

Wireless issues after upgrading to Windows 7
I have a HP Pavilion dv6910us. I've upgraded to Windows 7 without problem, but now every few minutes, I lose my connection Wireless for a minute and he reconnects on its own. I connect to an Apple Time Capsule. I also installed new security Trend Micro Internet for Windows 7 and thought that might have something to do with it, but when I disabled Trend Micro the problem still was there. I tried the HP Wireless Assistant; that was of no help, and when I used the troubleshooter in Windows it could not find a solution. Any help would be great. Thank you.
OK, after an update to the large windows and a reboot everything seems good bo. Thank you very much for the help.

I upgraded to Windows of Windows 8.1 10 last night. I tried to connect to facebook, a few hours ago and find that I can't. The error is, "this connection is untrusted", with "this site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HST) to specify that Firefox didn't connect safely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate."
I scoured the help forums and have learned that it is because I have active parental control and trying to access accounts on an account of "the child". One of them suggested is to disable parental control. This is not an option. I absolutely must have Family Safety for my laptop.
This thread is very useful: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1075301. I did the first answer Philipp suggested, "Trust this CA to identify web sites", and I confirmed this change.
Now, whenever I try to access Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Youtube, etc, I get this:
An error occurred during a connection to www.yahoo.com. The peer certificate has an invalid signature. (Error code: sec_error_bad_signature)The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
I ran out of ideas. I went back to the thread useful and tried the next thing, philipp suggested: go to the Web page, "https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2965142" and then clicking on the link "known issues for Mozilla Firefox users. The problem with this, is that the instructions seem to be written for a device touchscreen enabled; I don't have a touchscreen device, I have a laptop to play with without a touchscreen.
I know there is a lot of information, but I would really appreciate anyone help in my struggle to be able to access these sites without asking my mother to get on his administrator account when I want to access these Web sites.
in case you want to use family protection by intention, you need a configuration so that it can function in firefox and install the security certificate for the family that is getting used to intercept connections secure in the confidence of the ms browser store: while in firefox, click on this link - then must display a dialog on the addition of a cert. Please check the trust this CA to identify web sites & confirm the change.
Alternatively, you can also try the manual procedure described in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2965142 in the section about firefox.
