I ran the upgrade wizard. I'm still not sure what it means

Hello

Preamble: I'm not tech savvy, please he dumb down for me.

I ran the upgrade wizard and I'm still not sure if the upgrade is a good idea. I need to know whether or not it is compatible before moving with her.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525, running Windows Vista.

Some issues that came:

Install an application to play DVDs, Sidebar gadgets are not supported, secure boot is not compatible, your screen resolution is not compatible.

I checked my screen and higher resolution, it goes up to is 1280 X 800. I tried to watch promotional videos for Windows 8, but the video does not work yet. The color was off, the sound was very good.

What does that mean? Windows still work? What should I do to make sure that I can still do normal things?

I do not know. You will need to check with the Upgrade Wizard of Windows 7, then check the manufacturer's website.

My old Vista was not able to upgrade to Windows 7 (Toshiba).

Upgrade Advisor advised me to some questions, and then I went to the Toshiba site and was informed any way uncertain "not compatible".

If you want to switch from Vista to Windows 7 - check

Visit the site of the manufacturer for more information.

  • How does the upgrade wizard?

    I am considering upgrading to Windows 8 Windows 7. I did research on whether or not you lose everything and I found this upgrade wizard. In the example given on WikiHow, it is said that you can click on "Just save files to nobody." What type of files stored and once you have installed Windows 8, how to get back files? I don't have an external hard drive, so I have no way to backup my stuff. If she can keep the doccuments, photo, music and video, then it is fine. Help, please

    Three points:

    1. If you do an upgrade, not a new installation, you should lose
    nothing.

    2. When you take an important step, as an upgrade from versions of Windows,
    There is always a risk that something can go wrong. So it is always
    careful to make sure you have a current external backup of all
    important for you.

    3. If you do not have what you need to make an external backup, you
    playing with fire. Almost everyone should be back up regularly. He
    is always possible that a hard drive crash, user error, nearby
    stroke, virus attack, even stolen computer, can cause
    the loss of everything on your drive. As it has often been said, it is not
    a question of whether you will have a problem, but when.

  • After completing the upgrade Windows 7 laptop does not start

    A ran the Windows 7 upgrade on a new laptop Sony Vaio with Windows Vista. After installation is complete laptop ran fine for 2 days.

    Necessary to restart after trying to connect a new printer. Stop the laptop normally, but after a reboot would only boot to Windows Boot Manager.

    The problem is that the upgrade of Windows CD I have is not start even if the DVD has been the first priority in the boot sequence.

    If you are somehow able to boot from the installation DVD:

    1. Insert the DVD of Windows 7 and restart your computer
    2 boot from the DVD.
    3. choose your language and click Next.
    4. click on command prompt and try the following commands (they may or may not work):

    Bootrec /fixMBR
    Bootrec /fixBoot
    Bootrec /rebuildBCD
    Bootrec /scanOS

  • Currently, I have CS3 and am interested in the upgrade. How to replace and update what I already have the cloud?

    I use CS3 on my pc as an individual which is great for my needs. But for the company where I work (part time), I need to have CS6, for commercial purposes, and I will use it on my own PC, then I'd be interested in using the cloud for this. However, when I leave the company, what is happening?. Can I just transfer the license to another computer / user and reinstall my old CS3? I Uninstall CS3 in order to use the CS6 cloud in the first place?

    And all the files that I created in CS3 for my individual goal, can they be used in CS6 and then "downgraded" back to CS3. The reason why I ask is that I can't afford to buy CS6 for my personal use, but I need it for business. Who is?

    You don't need to involve the cloud if your wish is to acquire the CS6.  CS6 is still sold as a product independent non-cloud, that is likely better than getting through the cloud in view of the problems that face people with the cloud against their old products.  In this way, when you're done with everything what you work always mention have CS6 available and can still use CS3 if needed as well.

    There is no way to upgrade to CS6 in CS3.

    Buy CS6:
