HP Notebook: that back windows 10 pro

I have hp laptop I have windows 10 enterprice edition but I want to support the operating system as windows 10 vertion pro so what can I do?

So currently, you use a system to dual boot with Win7 and win10 company, right?

And you want to replace the Win10 Pro version, right?

There is no place "downgrade", which replaces the version of Win10, keep, but change to Pro - if it's what you're asking.  This thread on Win10 community forums confirms that: http://www.tenforums.com/windows-updates-activation/35629-downgrading-windows-10-enterprise-pro.html#post517556

Also, you would need a new key for the Pro version to activate it.

Good luck

I'm a volunteer and I do not work for, or represent, HP.

    I have a computer that has Windows 2000 Pro, I can use the disk to upgrade to Windows XP with this OS? It's

    an old computer, but it works very well.  I want to switch to XP using the Windows upgrade disc. But

    in the specifications it lists only 98, 98 Second and ME as an operating system you can upgrade.  Thanks John

    Provided the specifications of the computer meets Windows XP you can switch from 2000 to XP. If it does not meet the specifications, you may upgrade the computer first or get a new one which is more cheaper today.

    In addition, please note that you can only switch to Windows XP Professional. If it is a home edition you have then it will not work. You can refer to the link below on how to update your copy of Windows 2000 to Windows XP Pro.

    I received a free upgrade license for Windows 8 Pro with Media Center, at the time where they offered.

  • Error: The installer cannot set Windows XP required configuration information during the upgrade to Windows XP Home SP3 of Windows XP Pro.

    Original title: OEM Windows XP Home SP3 update XP Pro

    Here is a compilation of the messages from another forum regarding
    My problem:
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    I'm trying to upgrade a Windows XP Home Sp3 OEM system to
    Windows XP Pro. (There are a few Pro features
    that are not available in the House I now need: (1) the files offline and
    (2) an add-on available for free to Onenote 2007, Top2onenote, requires a Pro).
    I don't want a clean install, but an upgrade. I bought a Windows XP Pro
    Upgrade CD on Ebay that was Windows XP Pro
    Gold (v2002). I'm sure that's true for the following reasons:

    It has been listed as an upgrade, but the CD is not labeled "Upgrade".
    It seems very authentic with all Microsoft holography.
    He came in the standard package of Windows XP (without box),
    and it was sealed.
    The name of volume for the CD is WXPFPP_EN. The Internet,.
    It is the retail of Windows XP Pro RTM (gold)!

    Here are things I tried initially.

    (1) I tried to upgrade to Pro from the purchased CD. It is immediately
    has refused to upgrade indicating the upgrade OS (Pro) is older than the
    installed OS (home)...

    (2) I read about "slipstreaming". "Slipstreaming" allows to integrate
    a service pack with an earlier version of the operating system. I created a
    upgrade XP Pro SP3 with Nlite slipstreamed CD image (and
    Autostreamer later, but it made no difference) from the purchased CD
    and a file containing SP3.

    After you burn the CD and start the upgrade
    (Windows installation), the upgrade process
    product through "information collection."
    "Dynamic update" and "Preparation of Installation" with
    no problems. My computer restarted and returned to
    "Installation preparation". A progress bar called 'Progress '.
    quickly filled to about 90% and the hanging system
    at that time there for about 15 minutes.
    Then, I got the following error message:

    Setup cannot set the required Windows XP configuration
    information. This indicates an internal Setup error.

    This is where I am stuck. I had to leave the installation at this point.
    My drive is starts raining and I had to restore a backup.

    (3) just for the heck of it, I formatted my hard drive and
    reinstalled my original OEM XP Home SP3 OS (no clean up, no user file).
    I immediately used my XP CD slipstreamed Pro to try one
    upgrade to XP Pro and IT WORKED! I need to find out why the
    properly clean XP Home OS upgraded to XP Pro but my pre-existing
    (with the files users, drivers, etc..) XP Home OS does not level
    successfully to XP Pro.
    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Another post:

    Yet once, today, I installed a new copy of OEM Windows XP Home Sp3.
    I continue with installation of all the essential and the add-on
    pilots (essentially all my original version). Then, I
    set up a network connection and firewall. With this configuration,.
    I ran the Pro XP slipstreamed SP3 CD. The upgrade to XP Pro
    success (even if the upgrade not configured my graphics
    card properly). I guess my current problem is either the registry,
    the WINDOWS, some user file or parameter file.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    Another post:

    I made a file and the backup of the folder C:\Windows folder
    on my system that is pre-existing (OEM XP Home Sp3). I also did a
    separate the backup the State of the 'system' on my pre-existing system.
    These are added my full image backup of her pre-existing
    system a month ago.

    I did a backup image of my system (minimum fees OEM XP Home
    SP3 with all the original installed drivers over a network configured
    connection and a firewall configured). This system will upgrade
    XP Pro with XP Pro SP3 slipstreamed CD successfully.

    Experiment 1:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the C:/Windows folder
    and the State of the pre-existing system backup system. A startup
    has managed (with a minor irritant). I had to activate Windows.
    Then, I tried upgrading the slipstreamed XP Pro processor. He stopped
    at the same place during the upgrade and gave the same error as before:

    Setup cannot set the required configuration information Windows XP.
    This indicates an internal Setup error.

    Experiment 2:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored the system state only
    the backup of the pre-existing system. After startup I was asked to
    activate Windows, but answer Yes to the question would be to disconnect me
    the system. I couldn't get connected to try the XP Pro upgrade.

    Experience 3:

    I've restored my minimum system. I then restored only the C:/Windows
    the backup of the pre-existing system folder. Once again, as in experiment 1,
    the upgrade failed at the same place with the same error message.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Before the experiment 3, I hoped that 3 experience would succeed so I
    could conclude that I had a registry problem. I'm not sure now.
    I don't know what to try next. Take the minimum system and reinstalling
    my files of the user is not an option that my hard drive has over 200 GB of
    programs! If I restore all files and folders of my pre-existing
    I would still have backup to restore a system state the reliable (read the registry).
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Sorry for the length! If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate your responses.

    Thank you

    Hello

    At home, I have a windows desktop computer 8, a windows xp pro laptop, a 8 and a windows phone fire HD Kindle.

    Everything is connected to my netgear WNDR3400v3 router and works fine except for my windows xp computer laptop pro.

    The connection speed of the laptop that is located in my basement is very low, so I bought a netgear Wireless extender WN2000RPTv2.

    The extender works with everything in my house except windows xp computer laptop pro. I was told that this is because windows xp do not support the last connection of wifi security type.

    I don't know about you, but I think it's wps or wpe and wpa?

    So my question is, can someone tell me if Microsoft have some sort of patch or update that allows windows xp pro to connect to the last security wifi out there?

  • MSVCR71.dll missing. I installed Windows 7 Pro to Vista Home Edition. EU back up my HARD drive. When I try to put things on the HARD drive I get the message that msvcr71.dll is missing. How to install Windows 7?

    I installed Windows 7 Pro to Vista Home Prem Edition.  Back up my HARD drive with the included HP software.  Now I can't get my info on the HARD drive.  When I try to open the computer file backup says msvcr71.dll is missing.  How to install and where?

    Hi dezertdawg,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Msvcr71.dll errors are caused by situations that lead to the removal or corruption of the msvcr71 DLL file. In some cases, the msvcr71.dll errors might indicate a
    problem of registry, a virus or malware problem, or even a hardware failure.

    You can use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to ensure that the system files are intact and replace the file. Follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

  • Intermittent USB mouse freeze on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Tested with several mice that work fine on other computers.

    I am having a frustrating problem where my Wired Optical mouse appears to 'freeze' for 10 seconds on my machine Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Meanwhile, everything else on the computer works fine, including the keyboard (connected through PS2). The mouse does not seem to lose power because down the red LED stays on. At the end of the freeze period, I hear the sound of Windows to disconnect USB, but there is no error or windows pop-up ads of any kind on the screen.

    Some more info about the configuration:

    * Core i7 950 processor
    * 12 GB of RAM
    * Radeon HD4950 video card (or almost)
    * The main SSD drive
    * 2 external powered USB drives, 1 powered MIDI keyboard, 1 USB dongle
    * Windows experience score 7.3

    I tried things that did not work:

    • Turn off all the power management, including the management of power supply for USB, USB hubs-> suspend to win power, etc.
    • Permutation of mouse. The problem came with three different mouse from different manufacturers.
    • Try the mouse on different computers of W7 Pro. Confirmed that the mice are not the problem.
    • Disconnected all other USB devices except the mouse. Problem persists.
    • Uninstalled all the drivers for the mouse and use MS default drivers.
    • Installed the software Microsoft mouse & keyboard center.
    • Installed the software from the manufacturer (ie. logitech) specific mouse driver.
    • Tried every USB port, the front and back, on my computer, including USB3 vs USB2.
    • Scanned for malware (using Malwarebytes)
    • Search for viruses (using Nod32)

    I must point out that NO other devices are having problems on this computer. My external hard drives all work perfectly. My printer when I plug it, works great, like my USB dongle. My MIDI keyboard never loses connection. Even when I have my phone connected Android, which normally creates a huge noise if I unplug it, never disconnects even for a second. It is therefore clearly a kind of mouse problem.

    The problem seems to occur regardless of what I do, although it seems MORE common if I use actually the mouse. If I'm just typing (as I am now) it seems not really to happen. On the other hand, sometimes hours go with no problem and other time it happens literally every few seconds.

    Remove the check to "improve the accuracy of the printer" logic. I had two computers windows 7 x 64 that gives me the same problem. When I tried a wireless mouse, the problem disappeared. they do not use the windows controls.

    There is no such thing as a downgrade to Windows XP. You had to make a

    "So?" Why you say that it is on the machine? How do you know? Or what makes

    You do not have to be equipped with Windows 7 to install Microsoft Office
    2010. as long as you have Windows XP SP3, it can run 32-bit Office

  • My computer with Windows 7 Home updated for Firefox v34.0.5 but my two computers that are running Windows 7 Pro have not yet updated beyond Firefox v34.0. Something wrong?

    See info above. I re - run the update process at least 10 times on the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (most recently this morning), and whenever the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (one is 64-bit, one is 32-bit) say that Firefox v34.0 is "up-to-date". I checked Mozilla.org, which States that Firefox v34.0.5 was released in mid-December, but he said nothing about whether this update was only for some OSs. I also ran several scans antivirus from different vendors on two machines running Windows 7 Pro and all scans show no problems.

    Please advise is there are different versions of Firefox for Windows 7 family or Professional Edition, or if I'm having a problem. If I'm having a problem, please tell us how I can correct.

    We changed how updates were deployed to a test, that's why you were probably the 34.0.5 on a computer and 34.0.0 on the other. The only difference between them is that 34.0.5 defines yahoo as the default search. You don't need to worry because of the different versions (who both were released at the same time BTW)
