• Product key not working only not for the upgrade from Windows 7 starter to win 10

  I have two Asus EEEPCs came with Windows 7 Starter.  The product key is on the bottom of the devices.  And they are completely legible.   4 years ago by ish and over the years the installations of Windows crashed, one of them, I installed Linux, the other, I played a bit with the installation of Android.  Today, I have upgraded to Windows 10 for each of them, wipe the disk and did a full install from USB.  One of them was perfectly, the second installation won't take the period key, the product license.  I even tried to change the characters only TWO that could be incorrect due to friction vs O Q and still nothing.   is there a way to send an image of the product key to Microsoft and someone to tell me what the heck is wrong with it?

• From what I read, if I buy a commercial version full of windows 7, I am not eligible for the upgrade of $14.95 to windows 8 in about 6 months.

  I'm about to buy a computer with 16 GB of memory. I'll of course need a 64 bit OS, it looks like a good time to switch to windows 7, XP. But windows 7 seems to have a very short life span. The OEM version is eligible for a special download offer upgrade $ 14.95 to windows 8 that seems due Q1 2013, but it seems that the retail version is not eligible for this offer? Like many people I do not upgrade OS every time is out. But why would I pay for an OS which is replaced in 6 months?

  Huh?

  14.99 reduction is a limited offer in time when you buy a new computer between June 2, 2012 and on January 31, 2013, with Windows 7. By October 26, 2012, the PC of all major manufacturers will come preloaded with Windows 8. The thing, it is likely to be the inventory on the market with Windows 7 for a while of OEM brand. If a consumer buys one of them, they should have the eligibility for the upgrade of Windows 8.

  Of course, you can buy the new computer with Windows 7 pre-loaded, acquire the Windows 8 upgrade what becomes availalable and install it at your leisure and activate it whenever you're ready.

  Yes, the retail version of Windows 7 is not eligible for the upgrade 14.99 discount, but you can get an updated copy of Windows 8 Pro for 39.99 beginning October 26, 2012 and ending on January 31, 2013.

  I just bought the Windows 7 Home Premium. Am I eligible for an upgrade to Windows 8 when it is available?

  I just bought the Windows 7 Home Premium. Am I eligible for an upgrade to Windows 8 when it is available?

  Yes.  More likely you qualify for level to Windows 8 If you had Windows 7 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, are all eligible to upgrade.)  Just OS level determines what you will be able to keep for an upgrade).

  If you're not confused: is eligible for the upgrade does not have any kind of discount because you just bought Windows 7, unless this purchase of Windows 7 came with a new computer?

• Will there be a direct upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 8 final version?

  Migration to Windows XP 8

  Will there be a direct upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 8 final version?  If so, are there details around this yet?

  If by "direct" you mean that you don't have to reinstall your applications, then almost certainly this option will be available.

  If you simply mean "l will be able to use an upgrade rather than a full license" - it's a lot more muddy waters, but I suspect that MS is going to cut the rug under the judicious XP and only allow upgrades from Vista and Win7.

• Space required for the upgrade to Windows 8.1

  Hi, I have a 32 GB SSD drive in my XPS with Windows 8 14. This 4 GB is free. If I opt for the upgrade to Windows 8.1, it replaces the Windows 8 files or consume this extra space after Windows 8? Windows 8.1 download size is 3, 8 GB.

  If I have problems with the hard disk space, is it possible to roll back the upgrade? Thank you very much!!

  You need 16 GBs minimum free space to accommodate the Setup routine...

  16 GB for 32-bit

  20 GB for 64-bit

  If installation success does not, he will return to its original state.

• Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

  Model A3E82AV number

  I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.
  
  I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.
  
  I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

  I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.
  
  This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?
  
  Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

  FIXED!

  I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.
  
  The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

  For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

  Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
  Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

  Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A
  
  If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

  Hello
  
  What is the edition of Windows Vista installed on the computer?
  Make sure that you upgrade to the correct version, some versions of Windows cannot be upgraded with the installation disc you are trying to use. For example, you cannot upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version, or upgrade a higher edition of Windows like Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, to a lower edition, such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. If this is the case, you will need to use the custom during installation option.
  Before you attempt to upgrade, please run the Windows 7 upgrade Advisor:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor
  Also, check if your computer is compatible for Windows 7, using the Compatibility Center:

• My 80071aa7 error will be fixed by the upgrade to windows 7?

  I was not able to get any microsoft vista updates from my HP Pavilion laptop for over a year.
  The error is '80071aa7' which tries to update, do not and then try to update on every restart, and fails again and again.

  I want to upgrade to Windows 7 soon brings me to my question:

  Original title: W7 Pro to W10

  My laptop with W7pro was debited with the message "getting setup files" now at 18hrs.  Is there a download method alternative other than the offer of upgrade/updates?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  Alternatively, you can upgrade your current PC to Windows 10 by going to the Windows 10 software download page to download the tool of creation of media. The media authoring tool can be used to create a USB or DVD media to upgrade your current PC to Windows 10 or install Windows 10 on another PC.

  Follow the instructions on the download page of Windows 10 software: http://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10

  Note:

  When upgrading to Windows 10 using media, you must run setup.exe from in your version of Windows 7 or Windows 8 and authentic. If you want to boot from media, you must have upgraded to Windows 10 previously. Boot 10 Windows media directly without upgrading to Windows 10 previously is not supported and will have problems with activation.
