I want to upgrade to Windows 7 or Vista (HELP!)

• Software Numark Cue crash or gel to the top after I've upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista-Help!

  I do experience intermittent freezing or the software simply disappears into the Office of many laptops! Just recently went through an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7. If I try to solve the problem of compatibility with Vista, SP1 or SP2 settings it shows that the program is not compatible. Is there a problem known with Numark, regarding Windows 7 or 64-bit... or a patch that I can download... anyone knows? BTW, when the software has been reinstalled it could work properly for months and then the experience of these questions!

  Thank you, Kathy

  Nuance community forum site also has a discussion http://community.numark.com/numark/topics/dj2go_issue_with_cue_full_verison when it appears that Cue can go also under the name of VirtualDJ and contains a link to a free download of http://www.virtualdj.com/download/free.html which is indicated as being compatible in the following description http://www.virtualdj.com/products/comparison.html Wndows 7

  You will need to purchase a full commercial copy of Windows 7 and do a clean install. You cannot use a Windows XP hacked as an operating system that you are eligible for an upgrade. Make sure that there are Windows 7 drivers for the hardware of the laptop. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  Hello

  If you use the Vista licence as part of the upgrade to Windows 7 you cannot use the license of Vista anywhere elsewhere

  It is part of the upgrade process

  and also read this on licensing rules;

  If Windows was preinstalled on your computer, Dell, HP, etc., or you bought an OEM/license disk, they are both classified as an OEM license and are not transferable.

  The Windows OEM license is linked to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
  You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

  If a retail Windows license, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
  But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.

  A single license is a single Installation.

  See Richard Harper response and also read here

  that tells you that you need at least 1 GB.

  And even 1 GB is not enough for a decent performance with almost any

• I am running Windows XP Professional, can I upgrade to Windows 7 or Vista?

  The upgrade to Windows XP Professional edition

  I am running Windows XP Professional, can I upgrade to Windows 7 or Vista?  I want to run the iCloud but need a more recent version to do.  Thank you.

  The first thing to do is to download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor--> http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=20

  If your hardware and your applications are compatible with Windows 7 (and there are drivers available for your hardware devices) then you can buy a copy of Windows 7 and install it.  You will have to do what Microsoft calls a "custom installation" which is a facility clean Windows 7 in force and which is to format your hard drive.

  Thus, you must first save all your data (files, documents, music, photos, etc.) on another medium (the best is an external hard drive), and then import this into the computer after the installation of Windows 7.  Microsoft is a tool for this called Windows Easy Transfer, but you can use any method you like.

  Also, you must reinstall all of your applications from their original installation media.  If any of these applications has been downloaded, you'll need a copy of the downloaded installation package or a way to re - download.  You must also make sure that you have all your license keys.

  If you go ahead with this, one thing you need to do before your existing XP installation is more usable is to download and run Belarc Advisor (free).  Belarc is mainly intended to let you know if your security patches are up-to-date, it also gives you a list of license keys for a large part of your installed software.

  PS: Don't waste your time with Vista.  If you can not go to Windows 7, stick with XP.

• Can I upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista without having to install Vista Service Pack 1?

  Several years ago, I made the huge mistake of update Win XP Pro to Win Vista Ultimate. In doing so, I immediately fell on so many questions that I spent more time each day trying to solve problems, to do the calculation and in some cases it was practically impossible to calculate all. It took about a dozen days before I have just abandoned, thrown my Windows machine into the closet and balance to a Mac. I've not looked back since.

  Well, relatively recently I bought a new laptop from lenovo with the intentions of immediately wiping of Windows 7 and Linux installation, with the hope of avoiding the headaches that I had previously with Windows. However, just out of curiosity, I decided to try Windows 7 before cleaning off the coast of the laptop and I have not had any major problems with it. So, I'm now thinking that I can dust off that Vista machine (the one that was put in the closet), if I can only he move to Windows 7.
  Almost immediately after plugging the thing, the headaches have come back with a vengeance.  I ran the Win 7 Upgrade Advisor, which basically said that everything was fine and that all that I had to do was to install Service Pack 1. Well, there is no service pack 1 in Windows update so I just downloaded the standalone file.  However, after trying to run the stand alone file, he said something to the effect that I can't because it is for installations of Windows language English, French, German and Spanish. He said in English, you the spirit, and it does because I have an English version of Windows.
  I'm now thinking that there could be another language pack on my computer so I googled how to uninstall language packs. The only information I can find on how to uninstall the language packs is to insert the Windows installation disc. I don't have the installation disc. There are years I paid an arm and a leg for a software that was virtually unusable.
  Is that anyway to upgrade to Windows 7 without having to deal with Vista and still not the upgrade price? I'm certainly not going to pay for the full version, as the last time, I would have probably had a better experience if I would have just thrown money into the fire. I don't understand why we should stop both to upgrade the operating system.
  I paid for Windows Vista and now I'm ready to pay to upgrade to Windows 7 because Vista doesn't help, but I can't because the Windows Vista I paid for is once again, pretty useless.
  Is anyway to avoid to jump through all these hoops or get all these headaches to put Windows 7 on my computer - upgrade price since I already have a useless Vista license?
  For what it's worth, I don't want to be negative, because I'm just completely frustrated at a task that should be simple - not to mention that this is the second time I'll have to post because the first time he said the server was unavailable after all the effort to write this first. I am a disabled veteran, so I did not have money to be plopping down hundreds of dollars to check if the software works or not, then that cost when he is not eating. I am now looking to mitigate my loss of Vista upgrade to Windows 7 (at least a little), but still, Vista prevents me to do.

  To remove the headache you cleaning 7 via BIOs Setup. You must then install 7 Service Pack 1 (if not included on the DVD), then the system drivers.

  A complete guide to a Dell system is available here. It will take e slightly modified for a non-Dell system, but it will give you an idea. Note that I wrote each step out in its entirety with a lot if you do not have this or that to get here, so it's a much more long/more scary looking at first sight than it actually is.
  Note: Vista is very stable (~ as stable as 7) when it's done via a clean installation and its Service Pack 1 and 2 service are installed before the drivers in the system (also mentioned in the guide). Via an upgrade, it's a nightmare that you met.

• Want to upgrade from Windows 7 Windows 8.1

  I have a pc touchsmart 310 and bought Windows 8 Pro on the drive. I want to upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro, and then download the free update to 8.1. I learned by a representative of Microsoft if I do an upgrade and not a "clean install" I would still have windows 7 and if I decided to move to windows 7 I was able to do because I did an upgrade and not a clean install completely erases the entire system.

  What I need to know, is if I'm doing this update, I continue to have the touchsmart feature? The touchsmart feature that will allow me to access the webcam, recipe box, Center app, facebook, twitter, HP Movie Store, doodle, add notes and etc? I was told by Microsoft to ask if you have a download that will allow me to have the touchsmart feature in windows 8 Pro. I talked to a representative, but I don't think he completely understood what I was referring to.

  It is the position of HP on the support of Windows 8 and of any computer HP have not supplied with Windows 8.

  Not all the features of Windows 8 may be available on all PCs.

  Your specific experience with Windows 8 will be determined by the capabilities of your PC.

  HP provides upgrade instructions and the drivers will be available for the majority of Windows 7 systems sold after October 1, 2011.

  If you want to restore the original operating system after the upgrade, you must create HP recovery before you put on level support.

  Please note that if you purchased your system before October 1, 2011, HP has not tested these PCs or developed the drivers for them or upgrade of Windows 8 instructions. The upgrade of these systems can be difficult, if not impossible.

   

  and

  Important information about other limitations and requirements;

  Screen resolution requirements

  Limitations with DVD playback software

  Limitations with Blu - ray playback software

  Limitations with TV Tuner software

  Secure boot & other dependent features of UEFI

  Limitations with touchscreen capabilities;

  Windows 7 (and Windows Vista) PC equipped with touch screens will not have full Windows 8 touch features after update. HP computers with hardware key designed for Windows 7 (or Windows Vista) will provide a similar experience for applications point to touch only two after the upgrade to Windows 8. Computers Windows HP with touch input material will not load Windows 8 applications that require more than two simultaneous touch points. In addition, Windows 8 shots of edge may be unavailable due to the bezel embedded on HP touch systems shipped with Windows 7 (and Windows Vista). HP TouchSmart Magic Canvas and HP TouchSmart applications are not compatible with Windows 8 and must be uninstalled before the upgrade. Note that the content created using applications such as Graphitti TouchSmart will be unavailable after the upgrade.

• Impossible to update my Windows 7, wants to upgrade to Windows 10

  I know that there is a similar announcement of this problem. I'm afraid all o what can I upgrade to Windows 10 a day, and frankly I'm intimidated by the steps that, as one person stated in the thread "even a luddite could follow." I guess I'm more backward than the Luddites that nobody knows.

  I would like a way to get my machine to be able to go back to the Windows 7 update without antics with the registry or something like that. I'm SOL? I love my machine the way it is and have about that programs that are not compatible with a new operating system of Windows.

  Thanks for any help possible.
