  Can I use Win Vista / Win 7 license key on my desktop? What installer I use (Win Vista or Win 7)? and how do I get the installer?

  Hello

  You cannot transfer the license of Vista.

  If Windows 7 Upgrade was not part of this upgrade offering free back then, you can transfer, but you need an operating system to be installed to upgrade.

  Read this information and you will understand what I mean:

  If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

  OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.

  Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

  And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

• Can I use my copy of Vista Business upgrade retail a computer with Windows XP Pro?

  Upgrade/license transfer

  I have purchase Windows 7 business plan and upgrade my Vista Business retail version to Windows 7 Pro.  Can I use my copy of Vista Business upgrade retail a computer with Windows XP Pro?

  If you use the license professional Vista as the operating system with a Windows 7 Pro upgrade license then no, you can't continue with Business.

  If you use a copy of the licence of right (standard retail) Windows 7 Pro then Yes, you can reuse the company to upgrade XP.

  Upgrade license replaces the license qualify you for the upgrade license.  That's why the price is reduced from the price of a copy of the full license.  In this case, a license of Windows 7 Upgrade binding Vista Business license to the Windows 7 Pro license and operating permits would be free not to use it elsewhere.

  How install Windows 7 Pro has no importance.  If you use an installation upgrade or new installation method, what matters is the license of Windows 7, to level or standard (full).

  Buy a copy of the full license of Windows 7 Pro to do what you are suggesting.

• Windows Vista Edition upgrade Home Premium Windows Vista Business

  Now, I want this transition to Windows Vista Business full Edition without formatting & reinstall OS because I don't want to lose the features & programs came with the lap top. I would buy the Windows Vista Professional with the product key on the local market in my country.

  First of all, I want your advice what is the best Vista professional should I buy?

  Second, what are the professional measures to update without formatting the hard drive of my laptop?

  Concerning

  Mr. Sayadi

  You cannot upgrade Vista Home Premium to Vista Business.

  It is not a Vista upgrade path.

  You have clean installation, back up ALL your data and reinstall all the programs.

  Upgrade paths:

  -of Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate.
  -from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate.
  -from Vista Business to Ultimate

  And there's no. Vista Business Ultimate version.

  You will need to purchase a full version of Vista Business and do a clean install.

  OR buy a Vista Ultimate upgrade version and do a upgrade.

  If you do an upgrade to Vista Ultimate, it SHOULD be with a 32-bit Ultimate Upgrade disk.

  There is only a single company of Vista, but you can buy the full version 32 bit or 64 bit OS and do a clean install...

  All depends on the amount of RAM for the need to use.

  Provide your license key is valid for your upgrade DVD you install twice, once as a clean install and then again an upgrade. What you do is 'redeveloped' Vista Vista"which is a route valid.

• Cannot restore backup image Vista Home Premium Vista Ultimate

  So recently my house was broken into and my laptop stolen.  Fortunately, considerate thieves left my backup hard drive external, I used my destination for Vista Ultimate backups.

  Advance of 2 weeks and now I have a new laptop.  It has Vista Home premium installed. It is deplorable that I must pay for 2 because Microsoft OS assumed that I am a software pirate and does not give me an OEM OS disk, but I also use a version with fewer features.

  But I'm better.  Soon I discovered that my non "backups" are not all files that are not some base document/text/music files.  All my encrypted volumes that have my REALLY important files were not considered sufficiently specific to save Vista, probably because their extension wasn't .txt, .doc or .mp3.

  Fine.  In fact, I did disk-image backups.  As recently, you mind, but at least most of my stuff should be there.

  And, I can't restore my own disk-image backups because Vista Home Premium does not support.  Great, not only bought Vista * double *, I'm not allowed to retrieve the files that I recorded with a BONE that I bought and supposed to be always clean, but only in certain intellectual property of Kafka-esque fantasy land.

  I tried the 3rd party virtualization software to try to start the image (.vhd files). No go.  Can someone tell me how to recover my files?  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Ixne,

  We will not be able to recover an ultimate Image on Home Premium. However, if you have a backup of your entire PC, then you can try to do the same thing in Windows Recovery Mode.

  Starting with the DVD of the operating system, once you see the manufacturer of the screen, Tap "F8". Choose the option "full restoration of the PC.

  Hope this helps with your problem.

• Looking for a 'how-to' guide reinstall Windows Vista after upgrading motherboard

  Original title: the motherbard and cpu upgrade

  I want to install (I hope) soon new motherboard and CPU and I was looking for how to guide to reinstall vista after upgrade of the motherboard. Is it possible to get to the office without big hazzle and start reinstalling from there.

  In fact, I want to reinstall vista because I think it's much easier to try to record all programs and other settings.

  I tried to use already search funtion and it did not the asnwer I was looking for.

  I have oem (at least it says in the box) version of vista 32 bit.

  If the motherboard is exactly the same or almost exactly the same there should be no problem.  Otherwise you will want to completely reinstall Vista or even your system will contain drivers for the hardware is no longer present or missing drivers for the new hardware on the motherboard.

  "illuknisaa" wrote in the new message: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy... *

  I know how to reinstall Vista (I did this couple times) but I don't know how Vista reacts when a new motherboard is installed. I just need to reactivate vista or even will I get to the office?

• Backups of Vista won't start does not as expected

  Backups of Vista were starting automatically as scheduled for the last 3 years, but now they do not start automatically.  The backup works fine when I start it manually.  I did not any changes to the schedule or to the device where the data is stored (external USB disk).  I recently put on maintenance of Vista via Windows Update, did not observe other problems.  Running Vista Home Premium 32-bit on a PC from Dell Quad with 4 GB of memory.  Any ideas on what is at the origin of the outbreak of backups to fail?
