  • Satellite A200 - Vista Home Premium to ultimate upgrade

    Hi back from the guy with a new query.

    "" I'm looking to upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate... checked the requirements of what is known on the "Windows anytime upgrade" site and I can you there is a lot of conflicting ideas on how its all done up to the fact that I would need a disc to upgrade mailed to me.

    After reading a few other forums recently, the answer lies in what you guys can or perhaps are not able to advise me... and the question is:

    Only the so-called "rescue disk" provided with the purchase, IE the Windows operating system disk... ALL CONTAIN THE ' VISTA "SYSTEMS AVAILABLE..." Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate? and very unlikely, but she coded upgrade or anything like that, as its meant to be to perform upgrades?

    Thanks a lot again in anticipation of your kind comments

    Andrew.

    Firs of all I think you should know that it is a forum for users and to my knowledge, there is no guy from Toshiba which could provide instructions.
    I know, it's, your Toshiba Recovery DVD contains the same Win Vista that was preinstalled on your laptop.
    It seems that you bought this laptop with Vista Home Premium and this operating system should be placed on the recovery media.

    Please DON t mix the Toshiba Recovery DVD with a DVD of new, original and clean Microsoft Vista.
    Toshiba Recovery contains an image include the OS, drivers, tools and additional software.
    It s already active.

    The MS Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista but to use a version of Vista that a right serial key must be inserted.

    Hope I could make a clarification.

  • Pls help: using Windows DVD (& Vista Home Premium) - can I burn more than a 'slide show' on a single DVD disc?

    I use DVD Maker (& Vista Home Premium).  Can I burn more than one slideshow on a single DVD disc?

    I saved 3 different 'projects', each has 10-15 images.
    When I use the screen 'Add items' to try and add these 3 different projects on my DVD I wind up just with a great slide show, which has 30-40 pictures in.
    What I want on this DVD is a separate slide show for each of the 3 projects.
    So can I implement a Menu of this DVD, which allows me to choose which of the 3 projects (slide shows) that I want to watch?
    Can I do this?  If so, how?
    Thank you!!!

    ==========================================
    It's a matter of time.

    Save each project in the. Film WMV format. Then you can import
    the three films in DVD Maker files and each of them will be a chapter...
    This way, you will have a menu.

    Once the DVD-video is encoded you cannot add additional files
    the DVD.

    If you need information on how to save... validate your version of Movie Maker.

  • Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 upgrade

    I have a drive under Windows 7 Professional (upgrade from Vista) license for my PC that works very well. I want to improve my laptop using the same disc. Currently, the laptop has Windows Vista Home Premium. Can I bring my laptop to Windows 7 using the same disk? Thank you

    Hello

    Sorry, but the answer is no.

    You can't install your license of Windows 7 on both computers.

    One license is for a single installation.

    You will need to purchase another license of Windows 7 If you want to install Windows 7 on both machines.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    And here is the information on upgrading your computer to Windows 7.

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

    Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  • Problems after doing a clean install of Vista Home Premium and service pack 2

    I see that others have the same problem as me, but there is no way to comment (that I can see) on the thread I've read.  After a lot of problems, I did a clean install of VISTA Home Premium (came with my Dell PC) and when I installed service pk2, all of the same problems that led me to do a clean install appeared.  I can't the computer to recognize and install the keyboard and the mouse of the blue tooth. (Don't tell me to contact the manufacturer, because they came w / the computer and say "Dell" on them!)  He told me that the enumerator does not work.  Then I launched Quicken, and when I tried to save a registry check for print, he gave me the msg "Quicken launcher has stopped working".  He was a key reason I did a clean install.  The only improvement is that I can at least open Quicken, which he would not let me do before.  How to uninstall service pack 2?

  • Where can I get a free copy of Windows Vista Home Premium for a laptop Sony Vaio I have my product key, but need to the floppy?

    where can I get a free copy of windows vista edition Home premium? I tried to restore my laptop without success. I think I need a copy of the installation disc so that I can reinstall it with my current product key

    Hello

    There's a photo guide based on the recovery of your model here...

    http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/tutorial/381906/product/VGN-fz18g

    If you cannot use this method because what did your friend, your options are...

    • Pay Sony for media recovery
    • A base Windows installation followed by installing specific Sony drivers and software from their Web site.

    If you walk down the road of the latter, I would say that, if possible, before you begin reinstalling Windows you download at least the Ethernet drivers and wireless and save in, for example, a USB key. Start your drivers to search for them (and other) here...

    http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/product/VGN-fz18g/FAQ

    .. everything will be difficult to download if drivers that allow access to the internet are not native to a new installation of Windows.

    Your principled stand against Sony charges for media recovery is, in my opinion, wrong. As I already said twice...

    If Sony did not provide recovery media that they have provided the means to create them

    If you lost or do not burn them and messed up your recovery partition, it's not for lack of Sony.

    My serious recommendation is to accept a fee of Sony for the recovery media. It will make life much simpler for you. For this reason alone, it is probably useful tax, especially considering that you're obviously not a user advanced. Otherwise, why ask the help of a friend and ask for help on this forum?

    I suspect that the links I've seen on this website are actually only valid for Windows 7 media images. If you do not buy the recovery media and go with an iso image download Vista Home Premium, I have to warn about the following...

    • The legality of this is, at best, questionable
    • If it's not genuine Microsoft media you might end by in an even bigger mess (if it works at all)

    Tricky
