Help with 16-bit games on Windows 7 64 bit Edition home premium

OK, so basically what I'm trying to run Lego rock raiders and other 16-bit on my computer games.
I tried different modes of compadability
The game worked on windows vista and xp, the problem is I have no more of these computers and the virtual xp is reserved for the profesional and more the game then starts fickers twice then crashes to the desktop.
I don't know if theres some kind of patch or another way to be able to get those old games to work maybe a virtual windows 2000 System I use doesn't use much space and doesn't cost money
Can anyone help?

: smile:

you don't need professional to run virtual PC.

  • Swap from 32-bit to 64-bit Vista Home Premium DVD

    Hi all

    I have a HP Pavilion dv5-1009tx Entertainment delivered PC preloaded with Vista Home Premium 32 bit. The PC is still under warranty. I want to trade the 32-bit Vista Home Premium which is already installed on the PC with 64-bit Vista Home Premium. For this I would need the 64-bit Vista DVD from HP. Can someone tell me what is better, easier and faster way to get the DVD? I don't want to download torrents etc., because you never know what are the files in them have been tempered with and you can end up installing.

    Thank you!

    I have 4 GB RAM installed on this laptop. Currently, only 3.2 GB (approx.) is used. The only reson to install a 64 bit OS is to use all 4 GB of RAM. I run Virtual Machines on this laptop for test and training and to be able to use the full amount of RAM would allow me to run virtual machines very comfortably, without getting errors that your system is low on memory.

    The speed and performance of this laptop on a 32 bit OS is pretty good. But as mentioned above, it would be good to use what you have.

    I have finally manged to get the correct information from HP. They called from their Sydney office and was told that for this particular model, is a 32-bit Vista Home Premium OS pre-loaded on my laptop. They ship not this laptop with a 6-bit version of Vista Home Premium OS, so there is no recovery disk. The only option of 64 bit with this HP laptop is Vista Ultimate, for which I have to buy a license.

    So ultimately it information, getting the right information at the right time, otherwise you might end up you are looking for the right things in the wrong places. (It took me 3 times to chat with someone online, called several times HP Service Center, Technical Support, and finally the Service Center people did someone call me Office in Sydney).

    I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?

    If you have purchased a retail package, it should include the disk for Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Otherwise, you can download a backup copy at the following link and use the same product key that allows you to enable the 32-bit version. Its a possibility, you may need to reactivate by phone, see below for instructions:

    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

    Hello

    That's right; with Vista Home Premiun upgrade paths are for Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate.

    It is one of the reasons why you should do a clean install.

    The other reason is that you can NOT put 32-bit to 64-bit.

    You need a clean install to do.

    Follow these steps before you install or buy Windows 7:

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    There is no place on the way to upgrade 32-bit versions of Windows to Windows 7 64 bit. You will need to do a custom installation.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the necessary

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.
