Holders for the upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit?

I have a 32-bit version of Windows 7 Professional (Win Vista Bus for Win 7 Pro UPG Media) that I purchased from NewEgg.  I want to upgrade to 64 - bit, but I didn't get 32-bit support.  This would require another purchase for the upgrade of the media?

Yes, you will need to buy the 64-bit disc separately for distributions of Windows 7 OEM. Releasing it's easy: with Windows | ActiveWin | Laptops | Microsoft MVP

  • Conditions for the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8

    Hello

    I am planning to buy a pc and a Windows 7 (DSP) separately and according to the recent announcement of MS regarding on the upgrade of Windows 8, all Windows 7 users who have made their purchase between June and December are eligible for the upgrade of the OS for $15

    I'd be also eligible for this event? Thank you!

    I found this article:

  • The upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit would make a big difference in photoshop CS6 performance?

    I work with CS6 in the system of windows XP 32 bit with 4 GB RAM max.  I constantly RAM problems saving or opening files.  I was told that change to a 64-bit operating system will solve these problems.  Does anyone have any advice or recommendations?  And if I choose to move from XP to Windows 7, version do I need for home, professional, or premium?

    If your computer is not particularly old and apparently has a capacity of 64-bit, I would certainly look past with a whole new 64 bit OS.

    There are those of us run Photoshop on Windows 7 x 64 with great success.

    And RAM is incredibly cheap right now.  I suggest go up to 16 GB if you can, even if we replace all the RAM you currently have.

    Something to keep in mind is that Windows 8 will be published this fall, and it will be priced at $39.95 for an upgrade (Yes, even an upgrade to XP).

    However, if you liked XP over his successors, you can hate Windows 8 again.  I already wrote a book on how to adjust and to increase Windows 8 to be a system based on the job because out of the box it is not something like its predecessors - the office is not where to start, and when find you your way to it to run what Microsoft sees as 'legacy' Win32 code, it is not yet a start button.

    If you really want to start talking about pushing the performance into the stratosphere, I can suggest a few ways to use SSD that can help you to do, but it is still expensive.

  • The upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit Windows 7

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro 32 bit on a Dell computer that is capable of 64 b. How to move to the 64 bit? I don't have the installation software. I know that I have to back up my computer I just need to know if I have to buy new software or download an upgrade. I have 4 GB of RAM, and then modernize the RAM (would appreciate any links to where I can buy the RAM as well).

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Contact Dell for a 64-bit version to install. It takes only a little extra for the dvd so they
    have it available.

  • I will be eligible for the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8?

    OK, so I have a Dell PC with Windows 7, but there are LOTS of screenshots.

    Well, here it is:

    1. it is a laptop computer Dell Latitude D620, manufactured in June 2005 and in almost continuous use since then. It is still surprisingly running at full pace without any sign of imminent death, the only thing replaced after being the DVD drive by me a few months ago. However, it was for a reason any sold by some obscure computer store in Oregon that no longer exists with... you guessed it... Windows 98! Even if it was a PC brand new with a processor to 3.6 Ghz, 2 GB of RAM and a 80 GB HDD. Someone managed to get 98 supporting NTFS and multiple core processors, as well as all access modern ports.

    2. between yesterday and today, it has changed hands 3times & 1/2. I say 1/2 because it belonged to a mobile commerce rental service. It has been upgraded from windows 98 through the different versions (Millennium, 2000, XP, XP MC) almost as soon as he leaves the plateau. He never had the OEM OS, NEVER, my best guess would be XP Media Center 2005.

    3. when I bought it in March 2011 for $250 on Ebay, it was XP SP3 on it, which I suppose is reasonably close to the OEM and oddly, Netscape Navigator. I immediately updated for Firefox and Chrome (I was taught to hate IE by father of Ubuntu 11.04 - running, he has always not has not upgraded to 11.10 or 12.04 LTS because he does not like she went from Gnome to the complete unit for a more mobile sensation). After about 6 months with the thing, I decided to use the old Vista Pro my dad drive to improve and maintain my stuff and do the same thing in Vista to 7.

    4. I got the Windows 7 Ultimate key off one of these as a reward online survey companies, the insertion of a Windows 7 box was in an envelope in my mailbox the next day. I put it in my computer and it worked for awhile, but it threw an error "you must activate Windows" less than a month. I called Microsoft support and managed to get a free replacement.

    So basically, it of really old (but still able to catch up with modern computers), changed hands a ridiculous amount of time, had a case upgrade and friends-letting-you-use-their-disc-for-free history that calibrated before the Millennium, was sold by a company that no longer exists with a tweak hack and possible root of an obsolete OS without reason that definitively cancelled the guarantee , crossed 2 FREE Windows 7 product keys, no one can find the original license or serial number and still less the person who actually bought the damn thing, AND the kitchen sink!

    My question is, I'll be eligible for the Windows 7-8 upgrade, not, or is there no way to know even at this stage? Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

    NOTE: Most of this information came from a complete history, I bought from the seller (who happened to have a scanned copy of each receipt, label, box and contract of prior to the time of thanks to God, even if I don't think that he could get this info legally or easily) for $ 20 as a result of a non-ebay transaction.

    This blog says MS that you are entitled to upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $ 39.99 it aims just have Win7 without making any reference to upgrade history.

  • Product key not working only not for the upgrade from Windows 7 starter to win 10

    I have two Asus EEEPCs came with Windows 7 Starter.  The product key is on the bottom of the devices.  And they are completely legible.   4 years ago by ish and over the years the installations of Windows crashed, one of them, I installed Linux, the other, I played a bit with the installation of Android.  Today, I have upgraded to Windows 10 for each of them, wipe the disk and did a full install from USB.  One of them was perfectly, the second installation won't take the period key, the product license.  I even tried to change the characters only TWO that could be incorrect due to friction vs O Q and still nothing.   is there a way to send an image of the product key to Microsoft and someone to tell me what the heck is wrong with it?

  • What all is involved in the upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit?

    I drive a dell dimension 3000 sp sp3 32 bit pent4 2.4 g
    I bought a used pent4 3Eg 64-bit of a factory, thinking that it is n play just plug, but no monitor or keyboard after repowered!
    And now it's history even after you have reinstalled the original pentium4.

    I've been nice with the pins, nothing was forced, catches are a match and he is listed as a upgrade dell... advice? I'll really be annoying my wife so I'm borrowing his laptop all the time ;)

    Ago only 32-bit Windows XP drivers available for this system on Dell drivers and Downloads Page.

    I think going to 64-bit would be more hassle than its worth (including XP). There is no Vista or 7 drivers this is although it can work. Although if your processor is faster than the original, it may be useful to upgrade but stick to 32 bit, XP.
    Better to ask on the Community Forums of Dell on the Forum of office equipment:

  • The upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit Windows 8?

    Original title: Please HELP me NOW...! : D

    I have a big question... well here's my story (also sorry for my English) I bought Windows 8 Pro and I installed the 32 bit. But now I want to upgrade to a 64-bit, I can do that, if so, how? (I have the CD of windows 8 32-bit and 64-bit)

    You will need to do a clean install.

    Starting installation DVD you have (I think that the same disc contains 32-bit and 64-bit version). Then everything just go forward and do and the format of the drive system and you can choose to install the 64-bit version.

  • The upgrade from 32-bit Windows 7 to 64 - bit Windows 8

    Original title: Windows 8 Pro Upgrade installed a 32-bit system

    Yesterday, I downloaded Windows 8 Pro. After installation, I found that he had set up a 32-bit system instead of 64-bit. My system Windows 7 was on 32 bits, but my processor is capable of 64-bit. Research on one of the forums of tecjh many people have had the problem that the downloaded version of Windows 8 is only 32-bit installation, even if the Windows 7 system is 64-bit. Does anyone know how to get Windows 8 to install 64-bit instead of 32?

    Use a pc that has x 64 os installed and re download win8 using the link in your email, now since the base is x 64 u will get a x 64 win8, burn the iso to a dvd and install it on your x 64 system support.

    Have not tried this, but some say it works... Since u already bought, it's worth a try.

  • Several activations phone for the upgrade (reinstall) Win7 32 bit to Win7 64-bit, then run the patch to get Win10 64-bit? Adviser says no need!

    [Subject title changed to take account of the answers and expert advice, the original title was 1 or 2 time phone activation? Failure of the mobo, replace & reinstall Win 7 32 bit (1st time), reinstall as Win 7 64 bit (2nd time?)]

    My mother Office card failed recently, it is installed with retail 32 bit Windows 7 Home Premium and family (3 users) Office 2010 package. Two Microsoft products have product keys.

    My understanding is change of motherboard: computer transfer. While the retail Windows 7 allow to reactivate by phone, but to reactivate Office 2010 will depends on a license agreement (which I haven't checked: 2 installations on computers, died 1 single installation still work left.) Will need to contact the family member to read).

    My 2nd understanding is I can try to connect my hard drive to a new motherboard and let it go through for direct start startup repair. Is better because I don't have data because of the sudden failure of the motherboard (for example bookmarks for the browser explore, can only log into the existing facility backup).

    But being upgraded to the new motherboard (and the new quad core processors), certainly I wouldn't keep running 32-bit system in the future.

    I would reinstall under Windows 7 64-bit later, then a free update to Windows 10 64-bit. (Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor reported that I can not direct implementation installation upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit Windows 7. Must pass through the new Setup again.)

    Whereas for the 32-bit Office 2010... I could continue to use it as it is if it is allowed to reactivate on new motherboard.

    Now, my question: to reactivate Windows 7 32-bit (and 32-bit Office 2010) with phone, later when I finished the backup of the data and do clean install Windows 7 64 bit (and 32-bit Office 2010), do I need to do to activate by phone, again? Or simply key in the original product key from the license of Windows 7 and Office 2010 already recognized the new motherboard?

    If I need do activate phone 2 times, I might as well direct own to install 64 bit Windows 7 now (despite the loss of some data).

    There is nothing worse you could install on your system than McAfee.  If you have it installed I would like to reinstall Windows it's a Goner.  The uninstall tool likely will not solve everything.

    I'm not "understand why, you need to install Windows 7 64-bit just to make a less than 10 Windows upgrade when you have a much better install directly Clean install Windows 10 Upgrade , then activate directly with the product key Windows 7."

    As to reactivate Office, wait until you get 10 windows up and then make the activation of the phone to help build just to install an Office (or 3 If you have a 3-pack of office, also).   Otherwise, you will have to redo the reinstallation of upgrade.

  • The upgrade from XP - Pro 32-bit to Windows 7 Pro questions

    I'm working on a T3400 precision with XP Professional. I believe that when it was purchased in January 2010, it's a PC running Windows 7 Pro and he ordered with an installed XP Professional downgrade. The sticker on the Tower Microsoft says Windows 7 Pro.

    In any case, it is on the "Compatible with Windows 7" list of Dell, but I'm under Windows 7 Upgrade advisor to check that there is no problem. (It worked for at least 3 hours now...) We did no change of material from the purchase - just different programs.

    I read the guide from Microsoft for the upgrade & I understand I have to perform a custom Setup out of the upgrade disc. Which means reinstalling all my programs. Which is a pain but nothing I can't handle most of my programs. Except that I am concerned about programs that was already installed on the PC by Dell. Namely my Adobe Acrobat & Microsoft Office 2007 programs. Did I lose those? Or I'll be able to download & reinstall the wrench off the Microsoft sticker on my tour?

    We have not bought a disc yet. I guess that we need Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc. Anything else I should know?

    In the United States, you can request a Dell installation disk:

    support.Dell.com/.../backupcd_form

    Alternatively, you can also install using retail media, then activate by phone from Microsoft (not Dell) using the product on your COA key:

    www.heidoc.NET/.../14-Windows-7-direct-download-links

    In regards to Adobe and office... you should have received license for those cards.  If you have lost, you can probably recover with Magic Jelly Bean or similar, get support for retail, then activate using the keys.

  • From what I read, if I buy a commercial version full of windows 7, I am not eligible for the upgrade of $14.95 to windows 8 in about 6 months.

    I'm about to buy a computer with 16 GB of memory. I'll of course need a 64 bit OS, it looks like a good time to switch to windows 7, XP. But windows 7 seems to have a very short life span. The OEM version is eligible for a special download offer upgrade $ 14.95 to windows 8 that seems due Q1 2013, but it seems that the retail version is not eligible for this offer? Like many people I do not upgrade OS every time is out. But why would I pay for an OS which is replaced in 6 months?

    Huh?

    14.99 reduction is a limited offer in time when you buy a new computer between June 2, 2012 and on January 31, 2013, with Windows 7. By October 26, 2012, the PC of all major manufacturers will come preloaded with Windows 8. The thing, it is likely to be the inventory on the market with Windows 7 for a while of OEM brand. If a consumer buys one of them, they should have the eligibility for the upgrade of Windows 8.

    Of course, you can buy the new computer with Windows 7 pre-loaded, acquire the Windows 8 upgrade what becomes availalable and install it at your leisure and activate it whenever you're ready.

    Yes, the retail version of Windows 7 is not eligible for the upgrade 14.99 discount, but you can get an updated copy of Windows 8 Pro for 39.99 beginning October 26, 2012 and ending on January 31, 2013.

  • Recovery of the factory from 32 bit to 64 bit with the note system performance

    which is closed/locked, and had no correct answer.

    I just bought a Toshiba L750. After learning of the default Windows 7 installed is Windows 32 bit, I decided to go Recovery Wizard from Toshiba upgrade to 64 - bit. However, the process is stuck to the system performance of note, that repeated several times for 2 hours.

    Given that I guessed that screen performance of system just note one full screen of a normal process of Windows, so I pressed the button Windows start to display the taskbar which showed a component of Adobe installation process has failed. In any case, I clicked on the install Adobe on the taskbar button and close the window.

    The note system performance then continued with about 10 steps ahead after 15 minutes. All well done.

    So the trick is to close a window of the installation components that get stuck. Hope this helps some Toshiba laptop users out so hard.

    A suggestion from bits to the team of Toshiba laptop:
    The full screen of the Recovery Wizard is good to hide technical details from users. However, if hang in some components, like the Adobe component I've seen, this will be confusing and advises current defects if the end-user following some in the thread above, legacy because of some missing components and the wrong configuration. It is preferable that the wizard of recovery to exit full screen at a given time, or the wizard handles error scenarios better.
