  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.

• 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.

  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.

  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.

• Want to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional to ultimate... is it possible?

  I looked at many Microsoft websites, which try to direct me to get Win8, I don't want to right now. I got a lot of 'system issues' and if an upgrade to Win7 Ultimate can help. However, I can't know where and how to do it. No 'official' sales, it seems. Not sure I can trust sellers on Amazon-the market place after reading some of the user comments. Someone did he do this upgrade? Suggestions welcome!

  If you experience system problems, upgrade to Windows 7 edition integral will not necessarily solve this problem, you must solve the problem that affects Windows 7 Professional now until you can upgrade ultimate.

  Could you identify the problems you're having with Windows 7 Professional.

  Regarding the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, as online anytime upgrades are no longer available, you will need to purchase a license of Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade.

  Version upgrade - Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade

  If the license for Windows 7 Ultimate, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate edition at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate files the stored settings and programs.

• I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Starter 64 Bit of Windows XP Professional 32-bit, is it feasible?

  If the Starter does not come with 64-bit, then Home Basic or Premium. I want to just update and not start from scratch. Thanks for your quick response.

  Windows 7 Starter is an OEM distribution that only is preloaded on the new NetBooks and Nettop computers. If you want to migrate to Windows 7, your only options are Windows 7 Edition Home Premium, professional or ultimate edition. If you live in some emerging markets, you should be able to get Windows 7 Home Basic Edition.

  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.

  Upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7

• I want to upgrade to windows 98 Second edition to xp eventually win 7 need to know the steps

  have old desktop with win 98 2nd edition can some give me the steps to upgade to xp sp3 please

  Hello:

  I can bet safely that Windows 7 does not work on an old PC with Windows 98.

  In order to upgrade to Windows XP, you must obtain a disc to upgrade program XP Home which are no longer available. You need to check out a place like eBay and see if you can get a new version of XP Home updated seal.

  Do not buy a used one, or you may have problems to activate the software.

• I want to upgrade to windows 8.

  I bought a laptop with windows vista on it. I've upgraded to windows 7 ultimate, but the person who sells it to me has not advised that it was an exemplary dog. I don't have a vista disc. How can I update/install windows 8

  The first thing you can do is run the Upgrade Advisor:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-to-Windows-8

  If you are able to run Windows 8, I suggest buy you this version of Windows 8, simply because if you decide to take a laptop or a PC, you can remove it from the old computer and install it on your new. In addition, it won't matter that your previous version, as you say, "doggy."

• I work with windows 7. I want to upgrade to windows 10.

• You want to upgrade to windows XP 8?

  Is it better to just buy a desktop computer with windows already loaded 8 or is it possible to upgrade.  I have a dell deminison 3000.  Never updated.  Probably the only person who have never upgraded to windows.  Appreciate any advice.

  Thank you

  I think you should just buy a new computer.  Sincerely, looks like it's a bit old.  Maybe not the specifications to run 8.  I looked up your own memory, and he said that you can put a maximum of 2 GB of memory.  I don't think that would be enough.  Here are the system requirements for windows 8.  Check and compare with yours.

  • Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with EAP, NX and SSE2 support

  • RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)

  • Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

  • Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
