I have windows xp but no wi - fi. I want to connect an Ipod with a wi - fi connection. What should I do?
I have ADSL internet. There is no wi - fi in control PANEL / NETWORK CONNECTIONS. I don't want a wi - fi, just an ad - hoc (?) service connection to the ipod while in the House. All the advice I have read assumes that there is already a wi - fi connection in the control panel / network connections. What should I do?
But I want to keep the ADSL connection with the computer, doesn't have a Wi - Fi connection for the computer. That's what I thought, it's called an ad hoc wireless network.
You're misunderstanding things. Installation of a router "will NOT change a Wi - Fi connection for the computer." The computer will always connect to the Internet through your current DSL service.
The only iPod with wifi possibilities is the iPod Touch. For this camera, wifi can be used to make video calls FaceTime to another iPhone or iPod Touch, or to connect to a wireless router or wireless (which in turn is connected to the Internet) access point to download media from the iTunes store or your iCloud account. You can also stream media using AirPlay via a wifi connection.
The only thing that you can do it via wifi - explains the longer post of Richard Harper - is to connect to your computer to back up your iPod or sync it with iTunes.
You should buy a wireless router (as said Veritas Aequitas). The router connects to your DSL modem (and so to the Internet). Your computer will connect to the router by an Ethernet cable, because your computer does not have a wireless adapter) and your iPod connects to the router using the wifi.

If you can install and run iTunes correctly, then I'm sure that sync with an iPod will work as well.
What do you mean exactly with "add to iTunes"?

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions
My PC running the 32-bit version or 64-bit Windows?
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/find-out-32-or-64-bit
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7
Windows 7 64 bit comes in handy when you need to deal with at least 4 GB of RAM or more. Windows 7 32 bit can use up to 3.2 GB of RAM. Because the address space of memory is much larger for 64-bit Windows, this means that you need two times more memory than the 32-bit Windows to accomplish some of the same task, but you are able to do much more, you can have more apps open, do things like run a virus scan in the background it will affect the performance of your system. 64-bit Windows 7 is safer too, malicious code cannot easily infiltrate it, drivers are more reliable because they must be signed before it can work with 64 bit Windows 7.
Regarding compatibility, you need device drivers 64-bit hardware devices, you may have. In addition, there is no 16-bit subsystem in Windows 7 64-bit, which means, your applications must be 32-bit only, not 16-bit Installer or programs uninstaller.
The upgrade of Windows Vista
When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.
If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:
Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

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.

Currently I have Windows XP, but cannot install Windows 8 Pro upgrade.
If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.
Have you tried to boot from the disk and make a custom installation?
Boot from the DVD Windows 8
Click Install now
Accept the license agreement
When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)
Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.
You will receive the following warning:
The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.
(At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK
The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.
Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.
You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

I have windows vista on this computer and I want to remove it and add windows xp.
I have Windows Vista on this computer and I want to remove it and replace it with Windows XP Professional. Whenever I tried to do, I succumbed. I tried to just boot from the cd and install xp and it tells me that the version on the computer is newer than the one I am trying to install and then gives me no option besides. I left and I restarted in safe mode and the command propt tried to fdisk and he said no authorized for this. When I try to format it is said that volume id and I don't know who. I've never been so lost trying to remove a platform in my life. I would like to have an answer to this problem, thanks and have a blessed day, Robin
Hi Robin,
· What is the type of disc you are having? It's a drive to upgrade or full version?
· How many partitions are present on the computer?
· Why would you downgrade from Windows Vista to Windows XP?
You need demarrer start from the installation disc, choose the partition where Windows is installed (ideally the C drive). Format it and then go to the Windows XP installation.
Let us know if you need more assistance.
