  • Using the media update for windows 7 (from vista), can I now re - install 7 via the clean install option, even if it is the path I have chosen when first installing 7 first?

    With a 7 upgrade version (not the full version) I could not use the upgrade option to install 7 on Vista, because it asked me to uninstall 2 programs that would not work in 7 with installation before you begin.  I couldn't do it because my Windows Installer is missing on my computer. (In fact, I couldn't even run the Windows Upgrade Advisor before proceeding with the installation because this program must be installed on your computer before you can run) So, I chose to use the custom installation and it worked fine, except that my computer is now worse than with vista. Thinking that it was because he kept all the vista files (windows.old) I deleted this file, but he did that give back me my hard drive space. I would like to make a re-install using this same version upgrade disc, but I've heard that I can not do a clean install, if the original operating system is not currently on the computer (using the version upgrade 7, not the full version), and I guess that's is more on my computer with the exception of fragments which I affect 7 performance. If this is true, what should I do? If I have to go to the full version, is there a way I can just pay the difference between what I already bought and version complete, or will lose money that I spent on the upgrade version, and buy the full version outright? Bottom line is this:  I want to just Vista on my computer for GOOD!  I don't want something that looks even left of Vista on my computer. I'm sacrificing all my programs to do it with a clean install, but it's better than all the headaches, I got Vista! Thanks in advance for all you can give me advice.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    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)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • I have just updated to windows 8 and I hate it. How to return windows 7?

    I have just updated to windows 8 and I hate it.  How to return windows 7?

    Hello

    Clean, install your Windows 7 Media 7 or restore the Windows 7 System Image that you did before upgrading Windows 8.

    If you don't have that:

    The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

    But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).

    If you have a Windows 7 license detail and are having trouble at the above Web site, contact Microsoft using the Support option.

    If you have a preinstalled OEM license (Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they need to provide for a fee.

    Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

    See you soon.

    For Photoshop CS2 activation has been reprocessed, so your original drive and the serial number does not work.

    As an owner of CS2, Adobe has a copy without activation and serial number, to which you are entitled.

    The serial number is to the right of the download link for Windows. You'll need this one, not your old number.

  • important updates for Windows 7 and windows 10

    In the optional updates, I've disabled windows 10. For important updates, I checked several updates security for windows 7 (updates are October; there are updates 42 total now). I click ok and then download. The next screen that appears includes "Download windows 10 get installation files."  I canceled the update. The message on the screen that results is "some updates were not installed cancelled 2 updates. He has also "two important updates selected."  When I click on "Try again", windows download 10 configuration files will reappear. I chose a small update to see if the file would actually download and the next screen is the screen with the message Windows 10.

    What is happening with the update windows 7 security and other files?

    How can I get downloads important and not on the Windows 10?

    Why they made system keeping trying to download windows 10 although I unchecked the box for it in the optional updates?

  • I have just updated to Windows 7 and when I try to run a backup they fail.

    I have just updated to Windows 7 and when I try to run a backup they fail.  It seems that whenever a program tries to update the external HARD disk where backups reside it requires administrator permissions.

    Looking at the options Microsoft suggest that their user account control system is not supported by my version of SyncToy. What can I do? I'm looged administrator

    As you have installed SyncToy until you have created the required permissions, uninstall SyncToy, reboot, then reinstall SyncToy.

    Update for Windows XP (KB975560) security and
    Update security for Windows XP (KB977914)
    appear on install Shield yellow Auto.  I tried to update both with Express and custom methods and then restart or shut down according to the instructions. Subsequently, it says full but in no time the Exact same shield updates pop-up again as needing to be installed again. Why?

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    Hi MiguelinaKrier,

    ·         What is the full error message?

    ·         The issue is limited to a particular update?

    ·         Updates (KB numbers) you are trying to install?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the section How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state of the link to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    After the clean boot used to resolve the problem, you can follow these steps to configure Windows XP to start normally.

    (a) click Start, run.

    (b) type msconfigand click OK.

    (c) the System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    (d) click the general tab, click Normal startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

    (e) when you are prompted, click restart to restart the computer.

    Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

  • Where can I find help for games of "MS Entertainment Pack for WIndows (1990). I can't seem to use them on Windows 7, but it can be used on Windows Vista?

    I have been using the following games; Taipei (Majongg tiles), Tetris, Golf (cards) and cruel (maps), which came with MS Entertainment Pack for Windows (1990) and who has worked with every version of MS Windows since 95 Windodws. I can use them with Windows Vista but I can't use them on Windows 7, I really enjoy these games and like to use them in Windows 7 and 8.

    "All Microsoft Entertainment Pack games work on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, but this only applies to 32-bit versions. The NTVDM allows 16-bit applications run in 32-bit versions of Windows. In the 64-bit versions of these operating systems are 32-bit applications be run in a compatibility layer in the kernel and layer 16 bit must be rewraped, this is why Microsoft has removed the feature. "(from Wikipedia)

    It's true. I tested the games ("Best of Windows Entertainment Pack", similar to the MEP even older) on 32-bit Windows 7, no problem. On Windows 7, 64 bit, they don't work (except if try you heavy workaround solutions like running Windows 3.1 on an emulator of BACK, then using this virtual operating system to run games).

  • Update for Windows 7 and BIOS on Satellite L300D-23D

    Hello guys

    I ' v just installed Windows 7 32-bit on Toshiba Satellite L300D-23D, I has not installed the update to the BIOS, but everything works fine.
    Can I update the BIOS?
    Thanks in advance.

    If everything works well I don't think that you need a BIOS update.
    I have Satellite A300 with old BIOS and use Win7 too. No problem at all.

    So that everything goes well, I have not yet thinking about the update of the BIOS.
    Do not touch the well-executed system. ;)
