• Windows 7 OEM vs full vs upgrade

  Hello

  I work for the State of California and I need to 'upgrade' some of our PC to Windows 7 Professional.  What I asking is do I need a full version because it seems to be the license, or a version upgrade or an OEM will keep us legal?
  The machines are running Windows XP Professional - OEM.  They were built by an OEM manufacturer with their other software (media) installed and we bought.
  I see a ton of places selling OEM versions, but this version seems to be linked to the motherboard; because I'll probably be upgrading motherboards in a year or two, I doubt that it is for "us".  Which leaves me with the below...
  With Windows 7 Professional - upgrade version - I'm not sure I can do this... What I can and be legal?
  With Windows 7 Professional - Full Retail - I'm sure I can do it with this, but a little expensive.
  With Volume Licensing... I don't think it's for us in this particular situation.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  All three are legal, but other problems. See below:

  Right.

  because I'll probably be upgrading motherboards in a year or two, I doubt that it is for "us".

  Then, as you suggest, it's a bad choice for you.

  Which leaves me with the below...

  With Windows 7 Professional - upgrade version - I'm not sure I can do this... What I can and be legal?

  You can use an upgrade version, but you can't do a upgrade with it.
  The only path from XP to Windows 7 is a new facility (or a
  upgrade to double - first to Vista and 7, but I do not recommend do
  that).

  With Windows 7 Professional - Full Retail - I'm sure I can do it with this, but a little expensive.

  Yes. But the version of upgrade should be just as good for you.

• Windows 7 student version is identical to the full version upgrade if I'm upgrading from XP

  Windows 7 student version is identical to the full version upgrade if I'm upgrading from XP

  Ronnie,

  Thanks, if it is so why Microsoft sells version upgrade to the full version of its operating system, I was going to buy a full version, but if the student version will do exactly the same thing I may as well save the money. Also, I was wondering what was the difference between student and other versions of office, you views would be appreciated because it is all a bit confusing. Thank you once again.

  Regards Simon Cheetham

  The difference between Windows 7 full version and upgrade versions is a matter of convenience.

  The full version of Windows 7 does not require that you have a license of qualification to be eligible for the upgrade.

  In order to install the Windows 7 upgrade version, you must have a system of eligible operating Windows installed and activated.  You cannot install a version upgrade of Windows 7 on a drive blank.

  You can do the same thing with the student version, which makes the different student version is applied reduction if you have an account valid .edu.  There is no difference is the code of a regular retail upgrade version.

  Also, I must point out, updates make it affordable for consumers to spend in future versions. For example, the PC I'm running now provided with Windows XP Professional, I didn't buy the Windows Vista Business Upgrade, Windows 7 Professional Upgrade instead of buying full versions of these newer versions.
  
  Also, I was wondering what the difference was between the students and the other versions of microsoft office, you views would be appreciated because it is all a bit confusing.

  One is a productivity suite and the other is an operating system. If you are referring to editing Office home and student, good Office Home and Student edition allows you to install on 3 computers. She is allowed only for noncommercial purposes. You are not eligible to reductions in upgrade for future versions. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com

• Re: Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 "Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD" upgrade

  We have a Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 (bought on 23-11-09) that came with Vista Business 32-bit installed, but has been downgraded (using the provided diskette) to Windows XP due to the demands of corporate network.

  When Windows 7 became available, I bought the DVD to upgrade to Windows 7 Toshiba provided so that if the company decided to upgrade to the new operating system, we could do it on this laptop.

  That's what I tried recently to discover that we can't do as the DVD is for Win Vista upgrade Windows 7 Pro. What is the best way to upgrade without having to buy another drive to upgrade. I have a set of recovery disks for an another Toshiba SatellitePro A300 - 2 4 which was bought about 2 months before this one. These were created using the Toshiba recovery software before any changes have been made on the laprop. Would I be able to restore the system to its state of Windows Vista using these disks and then use the Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD to make the upgarde?

  Suggestions or recommendations would be greatly received.

  This upgrade package offered by Toshiba is upgraded from Vista to Win7. So if you want to use it, you must install Vista recovery image at first.

  After that, you can upgrade pre-installed Vista to Win7 following the Toshiba s implementation instructions.
  I did the same thing my Qosmio X 300.

  If you cannot use created recovery disc either s order Toshiba Vista recovery disk or (perhaps the best solution) install the clean version of Win7. A300 is fully supported for Win7 and you can download all the necessary drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utilities.

• Satellite M300 - Sound driver for Vista 64 says upgrade failed

  I just reinstall my M300 with Vista 64 and I have the problem with the audio driver (I have download this Toshiba site).

  It says upgrade failed or something.

  > I have sounds coming out of the speaker, but the quality is very low
  This means that the audio driver has been installed correctly!
  To increase the volume, you must go to control panel-> sound and need to check if the volume control is defined at the top level.

  By the way; This laptop seems to belong to Toshiba US series.
  Therefore, you should check the Toshiba USA for drivers and BIOS update:

• can upgrade you vista Home premium to vista professional in order to install windows 7 Professional upgrade?

  Husband bought the windows 7 Professional upgrade.  Of course when it did not work and the message was to do a "clean install", we both had type light headed as we thought it that will take all day and probably does not work smoothly since is the most "literate" computer.  I did some internet research and according to microsoft, windows vista business upgrade to windows 7 Professional is an upgrade and not a clean install.  Is it useful to try and uprade my 64-bit edition windows Home premium windows vista professional in order to upgrade to windows 7 Professional?  I don't think we can get our money back because the packaging is open or I would say just that we trade it for ultimate.  If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.  Also I don't know even where to download vista business or haow only as much as it would cost.  Thanks in advance.

  N ° there is no way to go from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional OR Vista business without what you call a 'clean install', so there is no point in spending money to upgrade to Home Premium to business before the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional.  Upgrade Vista Home Premium only allowed on-site is ultimate.

  Use Windows Easy Transfer to keep your files and settings.  Then, start the computer with the Windows 7 dvd installation and moving forward.  Do not remove Vista.  Windows 7 upgrade installation should detect a copy installed Windows so that you can use the upgrade product key.  Once you reach the installation type selection screen, you will see the upgrade option is grayed out.  Choose the custom option to continue.

  If you want to do a clean install, you can use the tools on the installation type selection screen (until you click on custom) to reformat, etc., but this is not necessary if you don't mind remove the old Windows folder later.  If you start with a blank hard drive your upgrade license will be a problem then don't attempt is not a clean install of the old way.
