  Yes, you must install SP1... even just because SP1 is a sine qua non for the installation of SP2.

  It's okay which shows SP1 installed on 29 Apr-09: you haven't had not upgraded to Vista Ultimate then. ~ Robear Dyer (PA bear); MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002. DISCLAIMER: I do not represent nor don't work for Microsoft

• After full system recovery my Win7 has been changed from Home Premium Basic Home Edition

  Hello

  I have HP Pavilion dm3-2015er with pre-intalled:

  Winwows 7 Home Prem OA CIS and GE

  HP

  Several days ago, I bought Windows 8 Pro (Windows upgrade offer). I have upgrade.

  WIN8 Pro has started, the only problem was that I got no driver for my AMD (HD4225 & HD5430) graphics card.

  I tried catalyst 12.10 Win8 x 64, and after restarting Windows is crashed. Windows 8 recovery did not work.

  So, I made the recovery of HP Windows 7 since the recovery HARD drive partition.

  During the recovery process, I was very surprised than my recovered Windows 7 is family basic without support Windows Aero.

  What can we do in this situation?

  I also tried to upgrade to Windows 8 once more. The same problem occurred: after catalyst 12.10 installation Windows 8 crashed, I got Windows 7 HARD disk partition, and now I have Windows 7 Home Basic Edition.

  That's happened?

  Kyle_W wrote:
  It seems that the recovery partition has been implemented with Windows 7 Home Basic and it was later upgraded to Home Premium.

  That is right.

  I upgraded using the product key that is marked at the bottom of the laptop via Windows Anytime Upgrade.

  Now I use Windows 7 Home Premium.

• Qosmio G50-115: how to upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate

  Dear friends,

  I am a teacher in a local college. We decided to buy the Qosmio (device name: G50-115, device number: PQG55E-01J00GEN, product group: QOSMIO) for our Department. We bought two so far for the trial. But my job is now on the sword.

  These laptops are pre-intstalled with Vista Home Premium SP1 and we need to upgrade these to Vista Ultimate. We have a DVD of Windows Vista Ultimate, but it's without SP1 on it. When I run and update, it rejects the upgrade because the installed version is newer than the version I have. Microsoft is no help, they said that you bought...

  Microsoft advised me to uninstall SP1, but I can't do that because there is no option in Control Panel to do this.

  If I install clean I won't lose nice software from Toshiba. I did a recovery disk, but do not think that I will be able to install this software. If I can download all necessary drivers, but I am interested in utilities/software installed at the factory.

  Would you please advise me what to do. Y did he we can get all the software of Qosmio on a DVD for instalation.

  Kind regards

  Dr. Sophie

  You should try to wake SP1 to the drive ultimate because I think that the problem is due the SP1 is already installed, but not on the final drive.

  You can do this with vLite: http://www.vlite.net/.
  With this tool, you can create your own with integrated service packs, patches, driver installation disc and more.

  Try this, it only takes a few minutes.

• BSOD after windows upgrade from Home Premium to Vista Ultimate

  Hello

  I have a brand new A200 - TH1 comes with Vista Home Premium installed Edition. I had to install Vista Ultimate to get the job in Sql Server 2005 Reporting SERVICES. Upgrade Windows at all times managed without problems or errors. The problem is that my system gets now BSOD about 20 times a day. Its extremely unstable. I have restored to Home Premium using recovery disks, everything is stable until I apply vista ultimate improvement. I tried the upgrade without having to install any other software, shortly after my system crashes with BSOD 0 x 00008086. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Vista Business Edition would be the surface, but there is no upgrade for this. I am very confused as to why a skeleton of the system from vista home premium to vista ultimate would cause my sysytem so unstable... IF I run the windows upgrade advisor it says the following: (I installed the lastest 4965AGN driver and Bluetooth supplied with the system is the last available (5.0.1023.0)

  ACPI Bluetooth
  After you install Windows Vista, this device will require an updated driver. For the latest driver, go to the Web site of the manufacturer of the device or contact you the retailer.

  Before you install Windows Vista, go to the device manufacturer's Web site to download the latest driver for this device. After you install Windows Vista, install the registered driver.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated...

  Hello Jack

  I imagine that you have these problems, because a few months ago, I read an interesting article on this update and it was written on possible problems after the upgrade procedure. I installed a few times Ultimate on my A200 but as new installation.

  What you can try is to install the OS by using recovery media, delete all the stuff designed by Toshiba, including all other software like Norton. After doing this upgrade brand.

  When the upgrade is complete, install all the stuff of Toshiba order following facilities described in the instructions for Installations. I A200 with Vista Home Premium but I don't have a media Anytime upgrade and cannot test with my Satellite.

• Impossible to activate Win7 Home Premium with key valid after repair

  Pavilion P6210f motherboard has been replaced due to the failure of the sata controller. Once the motherboard has been replaced, the BONE started to make a notification that "windows is not genuine." Tried the system restore in time earlier but the error persists. I did a restore of the backup and the error has become this key is invalid for activation. I guessed that he had already been activated when I made the backup. I then got the product key for the hard drive and did a 'set up' after you download the oem version of win 7 Home premium on the Microsoft site. The error is changed to "key is invalid for activation. Haven't tried to use SFC to check all files, there were no problems found, but it still wouldn't turn on. Called Microsoft and sat with the tech for two hours while they went through the same steps that I had. They came too with the same results. And even if the key I gave them has been verified as being valid and obtained via the route from the HP website they refused to give me a different key, instead referring me to HP unless I want to purchase a new license for $150. I want to just activate the verified legitimate copy of win 7 I have.

  After setting up, I always had to reload all Microsoft updates. It takes an extremely long time to complete the prospect of having to use the disks from HP System files to regress to the original configuration is not really an attractive or resolved.

  Ideas/suggestions welcome

  I think the problem is in the 'motherboard has been replaced due to failure of the sata controller".  Do you have what motherboard used for the replacement?  OEM operating system state is probably the remote sensing of the new motherboard and not finding what is needed to allow for this change.  You could try using the key from the sticker on the box to activate the installation.  Do you know how to use it?  I'm surprised that Microsoft technology does not suggest that.

• HP pavilion dv6-3141ee from home premium to ultimate

  Hello

  I have a computer hp dv6-3141ee laptop with windows 7 Home premium 64-bit installed on it.  my laptop has crashed and had a hard drive failure, so I took it to be fixed and my laptop to go with windows 7 ultimate 64 bit installed on this...

  I had a few problems with ultimate 64 bit about usb ports and a microsd port, whenever I insert a USB port it does not recognize, and then I have to unplug and plug back like 5 times or more for power read...

  My question is: is this really the ultimate 64 bit that causes these problems? should I go back to the original home premium 64-bit system?  Or y at - it suggestions for managing these issues?

  Concerning

  Hey ghalimajzoub,
  
  At the base, Win7 Home Premium and Ultimate Win7 are the same - there are a few feature differences when it comes to networking, backup and languages, but as far as material interaction goes, they are the same. See this table for details:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/compare
  
  The problem you are experiencing is certainly not due to a change in the Windows edition. Given that the ports were working before you took it repair, I recommend strongly to take out there, and to let them know - maybe something happened during the repair.

• Re: upgrade from home premium to Ultimate

  I bought my laptop with Win Vista Home Premium P300-156. This system will not switch to Ultimate Polish.
  What I have to do, with ho I need to contact Toshiba to send me Windows Vista Ultimate?

  You can upgrade your operating system, but Toshiba has nothing to do with it. Buy this laptop you bought the license for Vista Home Premium. If you want to have Ultimate you must purchase by Microsoft valid activation key.

• Error 0 x 80090009: invalid flags specified, when I try to delete documents, photos, etc. by right click; Impossible to remove; Vista Home Premium

  I'm unable to delete documents, photos, etc. of my files by the usual method of mouse right click and selecting delete. The message "error 0 x 80090009: Invalid Flags specified" appears and click Try Again does not help. I emptied the Recycle Bin to make sure that it was not complete. I have Vista Home Premium.

  Thank you. I have gone through articles. They were somewhat useful.  It seems that the trash does not accept the delete, but I can work around it by removing permanently without going through the trash using the click, move, delete approach.

• Windows apparently can't stand Vista more means can't be upgraded to Vista Business from Home Premium?

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1545 using a Vista Home Premium x 64 OS and I want to upgrade the operating system Vista Business but what I understand that MS can't stand Vista does that mean I can't do this? Is there another place I can buy a 3rd type company. third-party software for my portable computer? I read an answer in the system here that said I can improve, but the question and the answer was written in ' 09 and I don't think that's relevant today. Thanks for any help.

  Hello

  you have never been able to do this upgrade

  You can't put Vista Home Premium to Vista Business; This is NOT an upgrade path

  Home Premium to Business must be done with a clean installation using a patented FULL vista

  You can upgrade Home Premium to Ultimate

  Ultimate includes the enterprise features

  to buy it test a computer repair shop and ask them to left over copies

  purchase online can be fraught with dangers of piracy

• Upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate

  Can anyone help?  I currently have Windows 7 Home Premium with 8 GB memory supplied with the laptop.  I'm going to upgrade the memory of 24GO to develop the use of SharePoint in a VM environment.  If I do an upgrade on the spot without doing a new installation of Windows Ultimate, which will be adequate for Windows to recognize the additional memory?  I know that Home Premium does not recognize 16 GB and that is why I'll go to ultimate.

• Problems with upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate edition

  I recently received a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate edition of my college and have had problems with the installation process. I listened to what most people tend to do and got the Windows Anytime Upgrade. I entered my key in this program, and he asked me to make what is called the Windows Upgrade Advisor. Currently, I forgot my key for the upgrade because I received the ultimate edition of a download of my college so when I tried to return the process again I hit a roadblock. When I run the Upgrade Windows Advisor he tells me that my computer can run windows 7, but when I go to install the I get an error when I try to do the Upgrade Version (I have not tried the customized version because I don't want to lose all my files that are not saved) tells me that I have to use Windows Anytime Upgrade.

  What do I do?
