• I am unable to get the computer manufacturer to send the disc to reinstall Vista. I tried to do this task almost 3 weeks. I need to reinstall Vista so that I can upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. Please help me. I have the product code.

  I mistakenly installed the 32-bit version of Windows 7, and I try to install the 64-bit version.  Info on other forums says there is no way to do it without a disk... I do not have with the computer.

  To go from 32 bit to 64 bit, you have to do with a FULL 64-bit version, by performing a clean install. so I don't see what the problem on Vista reinstall is.

  Unless you have Vista 64 bit, it will not help you upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit.

• Windows 7 upgrade advisor, Vista, says that Firefox must be uninstalled before the upgrade and that I won't be able to reinstall it, is it true?

  I'm currently running Vista, 32-bit. I am considering upgrading to Windows 7. I ran the report Upgrade Advisor and he said "Mozilla Firefox 20.0.1 must be uninstalled before the upgrade to Windows 7. You will be able to reinstall it after upgrading to Windows 7. "This seems inaccurate info, based on the Firefox site, but I want to check what I have to do before you start the upgrade. Leave Firefox installed and in place when I update or uninstall and reinstall then after the upgrade?

  Hello herplaw, you're right, this doesn't look good - firefox will work fine on windows 7. I leave it installed and to proceed with the update. in any case (if you need to reinstall it later), you can also save personal information that is stored in your firefox profile before continuing: back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox

• How to reinstall the Windows 7 upgrade on vista for new installation or in the event of system failure?

  I love periodically re - install a new operating system after reformatting hadr drive. In the past it was the of syetem of full operation and not just an upgrade. I have to be sure that it is not complicated, as I want to install the upgrade to Windows 7 (family pack) on 3 PC/laptops running Vista. I would upgrade as detailed instructions on how I would do a new installation using the Windows 7. This is important because I don't want to create a nightmarish experience of backup, install the original operating system, install the upgrade, etc. etc. etc.

  If you upgrade a computer Vista Win7 and need or want to do a clean install (or repair install) of Windows, you will need to reinstall Vista and then switch to Win7 again.

  Your question has nothing to do with Windows Update.

• Need to update Windows Vista Pro to Windows 7 or 8, and MS Office 2007 version the most recent which products do need me?

  Hello

  Hope someone here might be able to help. Running Windows Vista Ultimate Pro OS but realize I have to make the trip up to 7 or 8.1. Can someone tell me how to do this (i.e. should I get Windows 7, then update to 8.1, or can simply go directly from Vista to 8.1)?  I'm hoping to minimize the costs that we are on a bit of a fixed income here. Can I use upgrades or what I must have full OS to move?

  On the front of MS Office, currently sports Office 2007, but desperately need to move until the most recent is and again, this can be done cheaply? I mean can I pay at a discounted price on eBay or Amazon or I have to go directly to the shop of MS to ensure an authentic copy (but * frown * full price)?

  It's been rough, the last 4 years, but I think that things are finally looking a bit and wanted to get new systems / software in place while I still had the chance. Don't want to be caught in the position where Microsoft continues the upgrade / support versions that I run, it's a kind of scary place, unless it is on an old / computer test, but not my direct computer to use computers all day.

  Any assistance with this will be appreciated. Thank you all and have a great day!

  Hello

  Nothing can 'do with it' If you want legal software.

  What, whether it's "buyer beware".

  It's your choice where you buy your software since.

  With Windows 7 Microsoft no longer sells, so you use Amazon, etc.

  There is no way to upgrade Vista to 8.1

  Before purchasing Windows 7, follow these steps:

  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.

• Brand new laptop does not come with disks of windows, I need to reinstall windows what/where/how do I?

  I bought 2 new laptops. Both come with Windows already... so, if I need to reinstall windows... How/where/can do?

  Hello

  For future reference, these are VISTA forums you want on the new laptops in.

  I suggest other questions about these laptops you ask in the correct Forums.

  Here are the General options of relocation for you:

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  See you soon.

• Anyway I can get for free a Cie from my pc crapped out vista basic and I need to reinstall.

  I bought an acer 5315 laptop computer series with windows Vista Home Basic. I have my key ode on the bottom for her. I need to reinstall Vista Home Basic Edition, but have no disc for her. AY idea how I can get it without having to buy new?

  Hello

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact Acer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  With an Acer, it's Alt + F10

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  See programs > name Acer > then their eRecovery software topics on how to do, how it is made in function.

  If you find a reference to it, contact Acer to get tips on how to do these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
