• Someone knows how to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit to dm3?

  Hi all

  Recently, I bought my computer laptop pavilion dm3-1028tx (sp9300, 4 GB ddr3). Unfortunely only it comes with oem windows 7 Home premium 32-bit instead of windows 7 64-bit.

  Due to the characteristic of 32 bits, its only 3 GB of ram could be used.

  IM plan to upgrade my windows 7 Home premium 32-bit to 64-bit windows 7 home premiun.

  I tried to contact microsoft in my country, they said I should ask to HP, if I could spend my windows because its OEM.

  Someone knows how to upgrade my windows 7 32 bit to windows 7 64 bit without having to buy a new one? Please help me I do not know.

  Thanks a lot guys

  Unfortunately, you will need to buy the 64-bit version, unless you can get HP to you give 64-bit free citing inability to use all of the memory as a customer support/advocacy.   But you should check on HP website to see if your model was first 64-bit drivers.

  He will have to do a new installation as well.  And if HP is not actively support 64-bit for your model, you will lose the HP software (most consider bloatware anyway).  You will also lose built in recovery option.  So, at least, make sure you create your restore disks.

  You may be able to wash to recover the partition, but I don't know how you would be able to use it without recovery software that HP has loaded.

• Portege M800 - how to upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit?

  Hi - I have 2 drives Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade, but there is no option in the installation process to select 64-bit (I currently have a 32-bit Vista Home premium there)

  I have a Portege M800-11J - who says that it supports 64-bit

  Clues as to how can I change this?

  Hello

  Looks like you didn t includes the upgrade works.

  You can t do a upgrade of each version. For example, you can upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version, or upgrade from a higher edition of Windows to a lower edition.

  Which means that you can only upgrade to 32-bit Windows 7. For Windows 7 64-bit, you must make the new facility.

• How to upgrade to windows 7 64 bit, when I have Windows XP 32-bit by using the version "upgrade windows 7."

  I had been using windows XP 32 bit before decide me get windows 7. I have read around and thought you could buy the "version upgrade of windows 7" and go for 32-bit windows xp to windows 7 64 bit. Unfortunately, when I got home to do a clean installation of windows 7, I received an error message when I put in the 64-bit and says that the disc is not compatible with my current windows. I called Mircrosoft and they told me that with the version of windows upgrade 7 "" you can't go from 32 to 64-bit, that I would need to get the full version of this one for $200 here in the Canada. Unfortunately, at this time, I have the product installed and running. I'm a bit disappointed in this light my 6 GB of ram go lose and not to mention my $120 I spent. So I wanted to know are another that blow $200 for full windows 7 and lose my $120 on the updated version, is there another method to get the 64-bit? Because at this point, I am at a total loss.

  You can go from 32-bit XP to Windows 7 64 bit by doing a custom (clean) install with an upgrade version disk.  You don't need to buy a full version disc.  But you can't start from the upgrade disk.

  I don't know what you have installed now.  If XP is installed, turn on the computer, insert the DVD upgrade after start XP and follow the prompts.  This method might also work if 32-bit Windows 7 is installed.  If not, maybe to re - install XP to start the upgrade.

  Installation - 'upgrade' means what?
  Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .

  Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
  A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:

  • Back up any files and settings you want to keep

  • Install Windows 7

  • Reinstall all your files

  • Reinstall all the programs you want to use.

  These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.

• I am unable to get the computer manufacturer to send the disc to reinstall Vista. I tried to do this task almost 3 weeks. I need to reinstall Vista so that I can upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. Please help me. I have the product code.

  I mistakenly installed the 32-bit version of Windows 7, and I try to install the 64-bit version.  Info on other forums says there is no way to do it without a disk... I do not have with the computer.

  To go from 32 bit to 64 bit, you have to do with a FULL 64-bit version, by performing a clean install. so I don't see what the problem on Vista reinstall is.

  Unless you have Vista 64 bit, it will not help you upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• I have windows 7 key to business, how can upgrade to windows 10. I see that it is not included in the upgrade process

  I have windows 7 key to business, how can upgrade to windows 10. I see that it is not included in the upgrade process.

  In some forum I read, I can upgrade with a small charge for windows 7 ultimate, and after that I can move on to W10. Someone can tell me where and how do I upgrade to W7Ultimate?

  Thank you

  Windows 7 Enterprise is a volume license customer, it is not eligible for the free upgrade offer. If you have Windows 7 Enterprise through your employer, contact the network administrator or your Help Desk Support staff for more information on the upgrade to Windows 10 company.

  If you need Windows 10, you can purchase one license other wise, then perform a custom installation. You will need to reinstall the drivers and applications and also to save your personal files.

• Portege M700 rotation problems after the upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit

  I've upgraded to windows 7 yesterday evening on my portege m700. It is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I installed all the drivers in 64-bit on Toshiba page and the Windows section. Everything works perfectly except the screen does not properly rotate when in tablet mode. I can press ctrl + alt + arrow keys to rotate, and I can also use the windows Mobility Center to rotate 90 degrees at a time. I wonder what I have to do turn once engaged in tablet mode, as it did in Vista. I have the Toshiba rotation utility installed, but it doesn't seem to be something. It seems that it does not receive a signal from the screen that it was shot.

  I need it for school, so any help is GREATLY appreciated.

  Hello

  I think that there are not all 64boit drivers for Win 7 published and released for M700 and you will need to also install drivers for Vista 64-bit!

  For example:
  * Tablet PC Extension v 1.0.0.1 for Vista 64 bit Package *.
  This package installs a range of important public services.

  Utility _TOSHIBA of rotation: _ define the orientation of the screen by default as the system to be used in the transition from the PC to Tablet mode, or vice versa.

  _TOSHIBA tablet PC buttons driver: _ you can dedicate tablet buttons to perform common tasks so that you can easily use your tablet PC away from your workstation. For example, you can dedicate a button to open a program or to change the orientation of your screen.

  _TOSHIBA accelerometer utilities: _ these utilities are a set of material utilities that work with the integrated motion sensors you machine. With the accelerometer, your machine will be able to detect how you're holding it at one point. You can set the machine to perform a specific function when the device is tilted quickly left or right, either at the front or back. You can also take control of the cursor in some applications and move by leaning the PC in a certain direction.

• Cannot connect to Internet after upgrading to Windows 7 64-bit Aspire M5100

  I upgraded from Vista Home Premium 32-bit, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I have a Marvell yukon 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I tried updating the driver, but it has yet to solve the problem. I am able to connect through a usb wireless adapter.

  I noticed someone had this problem with a M3100 and the solved the problem by replacing the Ethernet card. I hope that I don't have to do since I've upgraded to Windows 7 using an OEM version. As I understand it, you can change to any material after I installed the OEM version.

  When I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor there was compatibility issues: 1) the card Ethernet, 2) graphics card.

  He said go to the device manufacturer's website and download the latest version of the driver. I thought that's what I did, but it still doesn't work. I have all the 'exclamation points"in the Device Manager. Everything said that it works correctly.

  Maybe I'm not download the appropriate driver. Should I just go for the driver and the driver update rather than choose one myself and downloading?

  If I end up installing a new Ethernet card going to work?

  Any suggestions?

  Good. It's just to install and configure the new network card. If all goes well, assuming that Murphy does not, it should be easy sailing! Let me know how it goes.
