I've upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista on a Tablet PC and have since upgraded to Windows 8. Can I re-use the upgrade of Windows 7 on an another Vista PC?

I have a Tablet PC originally shipped with Vista installed. I've upgraded to Windows 7 disk 3 license and have since upgraded to Windows 8 with promo code I got when purchasing a new office.

Can I reuse the license to move an other PC from Vista to Windows 7, since the upgrade to Windows 8 would have been valid for a Vista upgrade?

Yes, you can transfer the license of Windows 7 on another computer. Why, because the basic license is Windows Vista.

  • I bought 7 retail to upgrade to Vista and have since upgraded to 10. The product key is coming as invalid

    I have an old laptop that I am trying to set up for my daughter. It had XP on it and I have a physical disc of Windows 7 I have installed on it. I bought 7 retail to upgrade to Vista and have since upgraded to 10. The product key is coming as invalid. I thought that I could use it again since I upgraded from 7 to 10. Is the product key invalid, because I already used it once even if I'm not on 7? Can I buy just a key somewhere or I have to buy a new copy of 7 again? It installed fine that I just can't turn it on. Thank you.

    Windows 7 product key

    Because the free update of Windows 10 used the license to the retail of Windows 7 as an eligible basic license, you cannot transfer it elsewhere or you reuse.

    You will need to purchase a new license of Windows 7 or buy a license for version full Windows 10.

    My recommendation to waive the license of Windows 7, I would buy a full version license Windows 10.

    Once you do this, you can just update the values of product key for your system runs Windows 10, and then reactivate the license of Windows 7 by phone.

    Hi GrahamCroal

     

    1. is the streaming of films and videos slow down or you are totally unable to broadcast their?
    2. what exactly happens when you try streaming?

     

    You can check if the below link help-

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/which-protocols-does-Windows-Media-Player-use-for-streaming

     

    Also the connection speed must be higher than the data rate of the content you read to discover Fast Streaming. The faster your connection, the better your experience will be. So it depends entirely on the broadband connection you are using and speed offered by the connection. If you want faster streaming then you need check the high-speed broadband connections. You can communicate with the internet service provider for more information about the same thing.

    I hope this helps.

    Cannot left click to advance to the next image in the image windows Viewer. I can move forward using the keyboard

    I have a folder of photos that I opened to see several thumbnails. I can left click on a picture and it will open full screen. Then I left click on this image and the next should show but nothing happens. I can use the keyboard arrows to move to the next photo, but I can't use the mouse. The left click works for everything I use it for. I've used regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll and he said DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in shimgvw.dll succeeded. This does not solve the problem. This isn't a big deal, it just bugs _ on me because I'm a perfectionist. Thank you for your response and any other help would be appreciated.

    ===============================================
    If you use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer... left click of the photo is
    not supposed to promote the image. (some image viewers work this way
    but not Windows Picture and Fax Viewer)

    Left click on the blue arrows at the bottom of the screen will advance
    photos.

  • Looking for a compatible printer AirPrint for use in the field to print from my iPad 2. Possess and have v

    Looking for a compatible printer AirPrint for use in the field to print from my iPad 2. Own and use very satisfactory wbt 460 HP with a laptop. All compatible printers AirPrint currently all-in-one and too big for travel or field use.

    Whereas several HP printers are among the 15 AirPrints currently on the market, it seems reasonable that HP could provide the upgrade that would make my 460 AirPrint compatible wbt.

    I wireless (my fi) and would like to buy the wireless card from the blue tooth, if only the upgrade of the driver was available.

    How and when HP can provide a mobile/trip AirPrint printer?

    Answer as I am a person of 70 years. Because I am and can be quickly way over my head!

    For now, we don't have an Airprint-compatible printer. Future products may include, but are not currently. Products that are compatible Airprint are designed this way, so no upgrade will take place for previous models.

    Basically, the title says it all.  I got a new processor and motherboard a months ago and decided I would just start clean, so I wiped my HARD drive.  Reinstalled and everything works beautifully, but windows will not let me post it, saying that the code has already been used.  Is there a way to reset the code or something else?  Thanks in advance.
