• After crash HD using Win 7 Upgrade to install clean

  I upgraded my computer the SP3 of XP to Windows 7 64 bit with Win7 upgrade. The hard drive crashed and I bought a new hard drive. Win 7 installed fine, but it wont let me turn on. He told me that I can only upgrade. I need to uninstall Win7, reformat the disk, reinstall XP and then install Win 7 to activate and be authentic? Is there another way to solve this problem?

  Before you install Windows 7 using the upgrade disc, you must install Windows Vista. Windows 7 does not support the Windows XP upgrade (clean install necessary). Consider buying the full version of Windows 7.

• Windows Anytime upgrade to install Win 7 Pro on NB550D

  Is it safe to use Windows anytime upgrade to install Windows 7 Professional on a NB550D?

  I ask because it is available through the start menu, but the representative of Toshiba at Insight UK said it might void the warranty if you did! But then they mantioned Atom processors so I think they are just a little stupid maybe...?

  The reason for the upgrade is that we want netbooks on the field.

  Thank you

  Isn't about 20% cheaper to buy OEM W7 Pro that do an upgrade? May be entering the new product key on the screen at any time to upgrade will automate the upgrade rather than installing USB etc.

• I bought Vista Ultimate professional to upgrade the installed Vista. The 'Upgrade' feature is disabled in my professional (full) Vista Ultimate package. Why?

  Why can't go from Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate?

  I have a laptop double boot configured with Vista Home Premium and Windows 7 Professional.

  I bought Vista Ultimate professional to upgrade the installed Vista. The 'Upgrade' feature is disabled in my professional (full) Vista Ultimate package. Why?

  Update requires the same Service Pack level.  For example, if your current Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 or SP2 installed, you will need to uninstall the Service Pack to be able to use the Windows Vista Ultimate Edition disc, you have that has no Service Pack integrated.

• Can (must) I apply all current patches to the newly installed instance of EMP 11.1.2.1 release before you start to configure it?

  Can (must) I apply all current patches to the newly installed instance of EMP 11.1.2.1 release before you start to configure it?

  Hello

  First, you configure the new instance and check if it works well. Then apply patches, following the patch readme. Patches usually does not require a full configuration.

• How do I know if the patch has already been installed on ESXi 5.0?

  I describe the installation of patches ESXi on a group of servers (quarterly) who have not access to Internet, Update Manager is not an option.  I would like to be able to identify if a particular patch has already been installed so that I can jump through a script.

  On ESX 3.5, you might look to see if it was in etc/vmware/patchdb/patch_name.xml, but I can't find something similar in ESXi 5.0.

  Vib esxcli software controls do not seem to accept/meet with the zip file names I can say.  They seem to dig deeper into zip files that I want to go.

  The closest I can find is 'grep - c patchname /var/log/esxupdate.log' for a given parcel (i.e. ESXi-500-201207001) and if there are in the file then it has probably been installed.  In addition, there is no clean text that I can pick up on as "Patch ESXi-500-xxxxxxxxx sucessfully installed" that slows me down. This approach has problems if the script is interrupted in the middle of the installation of a patch. When it is run again, it think the patch as it has already been installed and we could actually lose a patch.

  If there is no way for this identify programmatically, I always install each patch in my quarterly updates (until the patch becomes obsolete).  I can't depend on my user to always run these quarterly updates, so I have to be able to catch up its system, if he missed a quarter.

  Appreciate any suggerstions

  There is no need to install the patches separately one after the other if you use a profile of the host to update your hosts.

  Basically, a host profile is a set of files VIB forming a certain level of patch of ESXi.

  1. download the bundle off line ESXi500-201209001 (or what ever is the most recent) from the portal to download patch (a direct link is https://hostupdate.vmware.com/software/VUM/OFFLINE/release-360-20120918-947362/ESXi500-201209001.zip)

  2. download the zip file in a shared data store

  3. update your hosts with the command

  esxcli software profile update /path/to/ESXi500-201209001.zip d Pei ESXi 5.0.0 - 20120904001-standard

  (change/path/to the directory of the correct data store)

• VMware tools will not install on Windows 2000 comments: "Setup failed to upgrade windows install.

  Just installed VMware player 5.0.0 on a host windows 7 to run a guest OS for win2k.  Going to install VMware tools, the installation program starts as expected but gives the error dialog box, ' the installer could not upgrade windows install "and closes.  How can I install VMware tools?

  See attached screenshot.

  Thanks in advance.

  Service Pack installed inside the 2 k VM?

  AFAIK the installer needs to SP 4

• Screen resolution low host, guest of Win2k, Workstation 8, impossible to upgrade windows install

  Installed a dinosaur Win2K under my work station 8.  Display stuck at 640 x 480 resolution. 16 colors.

  Tried to specify the settings of the monitor, no luck. Found everyone else to install VMWare tools

  but when I did, I got "Setup was unable to upgrade windows install" in

  The VMWare product Installation dialog box.

  Display the size of a postcard at low cost. Barely bigger than my smartphone. This way of working is feeling

  like changing the valves of the engine through the exhaust pipe.

  Sad having to load Win2K again, but have no choice at the moment...

  Any ideas out there?

  Hi CanuckWare,

  VMware Tools works on Win2K but it requires at least that Service Pack 4 installed in the comments.  If you haven't already done so, try to update your VM on SP4, and then repeat the installation of the VMware Tools.

  See you soon,.

• Difference between patches and upgrades in vCenter Server 4?

  We improve just vCenter for version 4.  The ESX hosts are still running ESX 3.5 U5.

  When we run the Update Manager, we see that there are two checkboxes - Patches and upgrade.  We assume that the patch is host and upgrade to ESX 3.5 to ESX 3.5 to vSphere 4.  Is this correct?

  When we run Manager update with the two boxes checked, it appears the fixes that we must apply for these ESX 3.5 hosts.  However, there is no upgrade poster for us to upgrade to vSphere ESX 3.5 U5.  Are there any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hi Tony,.

  Box upgrade is when you want to scan your host for upgrade compliance - for example if it is 3.5 and want to upgrade to 4.0

  Patches box is related to 3.5 and 4.0 host but only for cumulative patches, updates and individual patches.  That's the main difference - change the host of 3.5 to 4.0 version is done by upgrade and spend 3.5 U1 with U2's patch.

  If you want to check what patches you need - create base patch dynamic host. Upgrade, you must download iso 4.0 upgrade of host based and clean up with her

• patching and upgrading stream

  We have implemented between two stream sites. A site is the main and the second would be secondary
  or the backup (without using DataGuard) system. When we go operational, which we do not yet have.
  I am trying to determine how we would apply patches to the system. Yet once, if we're down for patches
  the second site should be available. Can I have two sites of different patches/upgrades?
  
  I intend to make with minimal down time. I read where the streams could push through the patch,
  but have had people do not recommend what the results might be unpredictable.
  
  Are there systems out there using rivers as their backup system? How do you make the patch or
  upgrade of maintenance?
  
  Appreciate your comments.
  Thank you.

  Streams are supported patch levels as long as you do not use a function in the Group of patches below which exists in the other. If patch to ease you and not to watch the streams. I would avoid just an accumulation of between the two session rivierra dctionary, even though I'm confident he composed with that. Just a reflex of conservatism.
