  • Can I buy an activation key and use the Windows 7 Upgrade disk to upgrade to Windows 7?

    CAN I BUY AN ACTIVATION KEY AND USE MY OLD DRIVE TO UPGRADE TO WINDOWS 7 UPGRADE FROM WINDOWS XP?

    Yes, you can:

    The upgrade to Windows XP?

    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  • I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files

    I can't find my old emails that is to say the last 4 years e-mails have disappeared. I can't see in the 'archives' folder list and also in my list of "local" files
    I recently formatted my system. It causes this problem? Is there anyway to recover my emails?

    Assuming that really format you your hard drive.
    Can erase you every single entry to a file, message, photo, program, document, etc. When you select format you get warnings on this subject.
    The format is the last thing you want to do without going through a backup of your personal and important files.

    Local folders is automatically created when you installed Tbird.
    And it is empty until you move something over there.
    (Your former local folder with all its files and messages has been removed under format).

    Only messages that are still on your server (stbeehive.oracle.com) can be recovered.

  • Can you buy directly from Microsoft, all versions of Windows 7 at retail?

    Can you buy directly from Microsoft, all versions of Windows 7 at retail?  Walmart.Com seems to sell Windows 7 yet, but the photo looks like the OEM version.

    I have three PCs that can be reset for XP and Vista.  Everything will run Windows 7.  Be nice if I could buy the pack family of Windows 7 from Microsoft.

    Microsoft has a Windows 7 ISO DVD download at the link below, but you need a key, I am without and Leary of buying (after reading that many do not work).

    https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/Windows7

    Microsoft sells more licenses of Windows 7, only 10 of Windows. Providers of third party such as Tiger Direct, New Egg and Amazon still have stock.

    Amazon.com: Microsoft Windows 7: software

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  • Cannot find the product key and can not use the gift cards to buy Windows 7 from retail store

    Original title: Let Down by Microsoft Retail store

    My daughter lives and breathes on his pc. We had some tough times lately, and of course, his computer has had too many problems. In February of this year, I bought a Win 7 Home Premium for his pc. Since we moved, so I can't find the package with the product key, or the disc. I have $75 in gift cards from Microsoft, I need to buy new win 7 hp. Almost all retailers (in store and online) competitive price a new copy for about $119. We have been saving, and with gift cards, I would have just enough money to buy win 7 hp for my daughter. I went to our Microsoft store in the Mall. (Don't forget I saved for about 6 weeks, we are on a budget, then gift cards have been a miracle!) Guess what? The only place that I can use the maps from Microsoft wants $199.99. To add insult to injury - I can't use gift cards for purchases in line-HELP! We waited 2 months just to be left out... I am very disappointed by Microsoft.
    I thought that we recorded our product with Microsoft when it was originally installed, but cannot find anyone. All solutions?

    If you have purchased windows is installed a keyfinder allows you to recover your product key.

    I think that the price of $119 is to upgrade xp/vista to windows 7.
    the $199 price is for the full version.

    Hello

    me again :-)

    So, I'll install the new ssd in my Tecra R840!

    Since I want not to clone my real SSD hdd but, instead, do a new window 7 Professional 64-bit installed, how can I achieve this without any DVD (my previous Toshibas...
    . I had 2 front, first one dating back to 1997 had CD/DVD with the OS!).

    So, I have the activation key in the label on the back of my Tecra but I don't have the media with OS!

    Please help solve this problem :-)

    Kind regards
    Paulo

    If you want to install the original recovery image, you must create restore DVD first. This recovery disk, you can use for installing the OS.
    In the user s manuals document clearly described how you can do so before you swap HDD create recovery disc in first.

    Product key to the label part of the preinstalled version.
