• Can I switch from Vista 32 bit to Win 7 64 bit on hp pavillion d4790y?

  I have 2 gig ram, but really need to accelerate up to 8 GB. I would also like to get win 7 for the office. Before all this, I need to know since my current OS is 32-bit, but 64-bit capable, if I install windows 7 64 bit will it pass from 32 to 64? And then the 8 GB of RAM will actually work if I buy that as well? Will I run into all the problems of the material inside (processor or motherboard (intel core 2 cpu [email protected] ghz))? I do not understand 32-bit to 64-bit conversions... Thank you

  Hi, Ciaroman:

  As I explained to wb2001, there is a difference between an upgrade on the spot and a custom (new installation).

  An upgrade in place means that you keep all of your files, programs and settings when you upgrade to Windows 7.

  While I always recommend backing up your files in case something goes wrong, all you do is pop in the disk on the Windows desktop and it installs Windows 7 and other than that, your PC is just the way it was before you upgrade, except that you now have Windows 7 instead of Windows Vista.

  You may need to install a couple of pilots, but that should be all you need to do.

  When you move from a 32-bit to a 64 bit OS OS, you can do an upgrade on the spot.

  You have to backup all your files and completely reload all programs, files and personal settings once your new 64-bit OS is installed.

  This installation method is called a custom or clean installation.

  Now as for the memory... Basically, Crucial memory is the same as the memory that I posted from NewEgg.

  If you feel 'safer' purchase of Crucial, by all means do so.

  I just give you options for less expensive, but also as a decent memory.

  This choice is yours.

  I can't say, I bought my memory from NewEgg (essential or patriot) for laptops and for a few years now and never had a problem with backward compatibility still.

  Here's an article on the latency CASE that explains better that I could. Basically the more latency, faster memory performs. This is not the same as the speed in MHz, it performs to.

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/CAS_latency

  So, as the number 5 of the same 800 Mhz memory chip should give you a slightly better Windows experience index # a chip number 6.

  I'm not an expert of memory. I didn't even know there were fleas in CASE 5 PC2-6400. I thought they were all CASES 6 and that all modules in memory PC2-5300 cases5.

  In any case, I went with Crucial memory because it was cheaper at the time.

  So, to summarize...

  Upgrade on-site is NOT the same as a custom upgrade.

  In place keeps all the files and settings and install just the OS on the existing.

  Custom: All files and programs must be reinstalled after installing the OS.

  CASE 5 memory 'faster' than the memory of 6 CASES.

  Just for fun, when you get your floppy drive to install W7 (I recommend buying retail package so that you get a 32 bit version and 64), put the 64 bit OS installation disc in the DVD drive on the windows desktop and see what happens.

  Then, remove the disc and insert the W7 32-bit installation disk and see what happens.

  You will then have proof positive, there is no way you can do an inplace upgrade to an OS 64-bit to a 32 bit OS.

  Personally, I would do a custom (clean install) of a 32 to an OS 32 bit or 64 64-bit OS anyway. I am suspicious of an upgrade inplace carrying luggage old to the new facility.

  Please report if you have any other questions or need additional assistance.

• On Windows 7 upgrade from vista 64 bit stops after that it says the settings and files of collection

  I am tring to install Windows 7 upgrade from vista 64-bit.  I'm to the point where it says collect files and settings, and it stops running, and then in the details it shows 3 files located in the c: users\my name\appdata\local\temp\WER followed by numbers.tmp, then version, appcompat or mdmp. (example: wer5090.tmp.version.txt)  He said that these files are the reason. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

  1 disable any security software before attempting to upgrade

  2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)

  3. disconnect all external devices before installing.

  4. check your hard disk for errors:

  Click Start

  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD

  Click on "Run as Administrator"

  At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  User account control permission

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  7. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  Also run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-7/Upgrade-Advisor.aspx

  If the upgrade continues to fail, you might want to consider doing a custom installation:

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• FUSION 5: Try to go from xP 32 bit to 64 bit w W8 / real 64 physical upgrade disc

  I MUST be overlooking SOMETHING here.  Scenario #1) using the ACTUAL 64-bit disk upgrade does not work because I get a message that I can not upgrade using a 64-bit with 32-bit disk (logical, I guess). #2 scenario), then I put the BIOS to boot the system to xP from the disk 64 b (in order to continue to work with my current system of 'prove' that I was upgrading a system with my upgrade disk). THAT did not work, it starts the upgrade but then informs me that I have to reboot the system WITHOUT the disc and then insert the disc once the system is in place - that puts me back to the scenario #1 again. I'm going round in circles at this point. For the record, I am successfully able to install this 64 bit Windows8, BUT THEN I can't REGISTER it with Microsoft because it recognizes my KEY to INSTALL a upgrade key and not an installation key FULL. Can someone tell me where I'm wrong? Thanks in advance.  Danny, Allentown, PA

  Hi, before you try to upgrade to windows xp, run the upgrade inside your virtual machine Wizard.

  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/upgrade-to-windows-8 . Run the link inside the virtual machine.

  For detailed steps, see http://communities.vmware.com/thread/423315?tstart=0

  Can I move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows 8?

  Yes, but you can do this using Upgrade Wizard. If your PC has a 64-bit compatible processor (CPU), but is running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can install a 64-bit version of Windows 8, but you can buy Windows 8 on DVD.

  You will also be able to keep all the files, settings, or the apps when you upgrade a 32-bit to a 64-bit version.

• I'm moving from PC to iMac. I think that I have brought successfully my profile. My work id of addressbook, but no mail received file is obvious.

  I'm moving from PC to iMac. I think that I have brought successfully my profile. My work id of addressbook, but no mail received file is obvious. The Mail subfolder in the profile of 'new' - "Mail" - is about the same size - 1.6 GB - as it was on the PC, so I guess that the mail has not moved, however, there is no sign of what I can find on the page "news" of Thunderbird. I did move by copying the profile folder of the PC on the Mac desktop, raise the profile of Mac beside him folder and dragging the PC Mail subfolder to the mail folder in the Mac profile. I think I am way over my head here; I really want to solve the problem, so I can mothball the PC. Thanks is advance for your help.

  OK, the ini file will be

  MacHD>Users>RKW (me)>Library>Thunderbird
  

  The profile folder will be in MacHD > users > RKW (me) > library > Thunderbird > profiles with a name like d1234pg. By default. When copying content. It is this lower level folder called. Not MacHD > users > RKW (me) > library > Thunderbird > profiles.

  To simplify a little (I hope so.

  Install Thunderbird. go to the Help menu in Thunderbird and select troubleshooting information.
  In this tab, click on the button show the frlder for the profile.
  Finder will open with the open current profile folder.
  Close Thunderbird.

  Now, locate the old profile folder, it will be contains pref.js as a file among many others.
  Copy the files and folder to this folder, and place them in the new folder Thunderbird open in the Finder for you. To replace the files.

  Open Thunderbird and you should have it all.

  "You can connect to the server through a proxy server" what is a proxy server address

  Hi @Raggetty ,

  I understand that you are having problems with the printer via the wireless network. I will definitely do my best to help you.

  Since you have moved, you must install the printer on the network.

  If you haven't already done so, restore the default settings of the network printer. Go to configuration, network, restore default network.

  Then set up the printer on the network again.

  Follow this document:

  If you need help to set up the printer on the network, let me know.

• Messages do not automatically moved from the Outbox to the sent items

  Hello. Everything worked fine until 08:00 this morning.

  Now, when I send an email, it is sent but is not automatically moved from Outbox sent items. So, I get an error message (but no error code. He says only: "some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks"). Because the message remains in the Outbox if there is another message to send that it will send the first once again, and then the second, then the first again, then the second again, etc. The only way I can work around it must manually move each e-mail sent from the Outbox to sent items.

  You have apparent dbx file corruption.
   
  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.
   
  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
   
  In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
   
  With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.
   
  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
   
  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
   
  General precautions for Outlook Express:
   
  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
