Installation of Windows Vista to another computer after a course upgraded to Windows 7?

I upgraded my new computer Windows 7 I can intall windows vista on the old computer?

If your Vista is a "Retail" version, so yes with the following restrictions: 1) If your old PC as has a previous operating system (e.g. Windows XP), then you can use the "Upgrade" to Vista version. (2) If you old computer has no previous OS, then you need the 'Full' product version of Vista.

However if you have a version of Vista OEM (which comes preinstalled with the computer), it can be moved/installed on another computer, as the OEM versions are linked to the first computer on which they are installed.

  • Pre-installed Vista CD computer Dell laptop allows you to install Vista on another computer of dell desktop originally pre-installed with XP?

    Hello.

    Have an old dell desktop with XP.
    Have a new computer dell laptop with Vista.

    Both came pre-installed.
    Both came with a CD to reinstall Windows.

    Am I allowed to install Vista from that original CD on the desktop?
    I did, then you have the problem (not genuine copy of Vista). I have since reinstalled Vista, but before I completely setting up the office, once again, I want to make sure that I am able to do this (do not want the new not genuine error).

    Specific questions:
    1. am I allowed to use portable CD to install Vista on another computer?
    2. If so, that must be done to ensure the "not genuine" error can't?

    Thanks for any help.

    Reference Dell binds their records to their motherboards.

    If your computer is pre-installed with Vista, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

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

    And a Vista license = a Vista Installation.

  • OEM Windows 7 installation on another computer after the first dead

    I recently bought a laptop computer without an operating system, and the seller I sold separately an OEM Windows 7 Professional version. I installed and activated this version of Windows. I must return this laptop because I was not satisfied with it. The seller will refund me the price of the laptop, but not Windows. Can I use this version of Windows, or do I have to just eat the cost?

    OEM cannot be moved to a new computer. You will need to buy another copy to install Windows on another computer.

    Can move you to a new Windows 7 computer

    If it's a full license or upgrade retail - Yes. You can move it to another computer as long as it is installed on a single computer at a time (and if it's a Windows 7 Upgrade version the new computer must have its own XP/Vista license qualification). The previous installation of Windows 7 on the old computer must be formatted or deleted. You will have to perhaps call Microsoft and explain what happened to complete activation. Turning it on the second computer will automatically be in effect 'disable' the license for the first computer. The key works with 32 and 64 bit, but can only be installed at a time.

    If it's an OEM license - don't. OEM licenses, including Windows preinstalled on a computer before purchase and Windows purchased separately, are related to the first computer, they are installed on and cannot be transferred to another computer. To install Windows on another computer, you will need to buy another copy.

  • Can XP be reused on another computer after upgrade to Vista?

    So I bought a disc xp and then upgraded to Vista can I use the xp system on the computer on which the operating system lost on... and keep Vista on the newest one... ?

    * original title - I lost my nail system *.

    N ° if you upgraded from Windows XP to Windows Vista, the Windows XP license has been subsumed under the license of Windows Vista upgrade to form a "full license".  Therefore, you can not reuse the license of Windows XP on another computer.

  • Professional vista loading on another computer after the failure of the original unit

    I bought a Dell PC a few years ago, loaded with Vista Business, the PC failed and was not worth repair that I then tried to load the vista enterprise on a Vista premium on my laptop that is not a Dell, it was not possible because Dell does not? I bought the program as well as the PC from dell and have a license, which means that this copy of Vista is mine and I should be able to use it. So why can't load which is effectivly a microsoft program, I bought from Dell which acts only as a retailer for the program on a computer that I own, if the original does not. I know now that I will never buy an another Dell computer and if it is average of Microsofts to force people to buy another program very expensive whenever a PC goes down then I will run Linus in the future.

    Dell is apparently saying that to re use the program I bought and have. I have to buy another machine from Dell. Since it will come ready load I will bought another program so, either the base of the House, I don't want to, or a business that I already have a license for

    Dell, HP, etc. sells cheaper OEM licenses that are related in that they are installed on the original computer.

    If you had bought a license to sale at retail of Microsoft, it could you have transferred it to another computer.

    A single license is a single Installation.

    I installed windows 8 on computer 'A' by using a product key. After some time I upgraded to windows 8.1. now, I want to disable my computer product key 'A' so that I can use it on another computer.

    There is no real deactivation procedure, slmgr.vbs - upk simply uninstalls the key and put the computer into test mode.

    If you want to use the key to product elsewhere, you will need to use for phone activation reactivate on another computer:

    2. then press the ENTER"" key.

  • Can I install Win7 upgrade on another computer after upgrade Win8 on my computer?

    Initially, my computer came with Vista installed. Three years ago, I bought an upgrade to Win7 and installed. A few months ago, I bought and installed an upgrade of Win8 on the same computer. I have another computer running Vista, and I was wondering if I could use the Win7 upgrade license to upgrade this computer. Technically, the upgrade of Win8 could meet the requirements with the Vista license on the original computer. I run Win7 on the other computer without having to buy a new license. Is this possible? The upgrade disks are details of Microsoft.

    Yes, it is possible. Because the machine was originally license with a qualification license (Vista), he would take the place of this license, thus freeing the Windows 7 Upgrade to serve elsewhere. So, Yes, you can transfer it to other Vista machine.

  • Can you re-install Acrobat DC to another computer after uninstallation.

    Re-install on another computer (pending the answer in the forum of the company).

    I installed Adobe Standard on Windows Server 2012R2 waiting to use it as a shared printer on a windows domain.  However, it seems that the feature to use Acrobat DC as a shared printer may not work.  I can re - install the program with the same license to another computer?  I see no obvious way to transfer the license.

    After searching a bit more, the response to my original message is as follows. Disable the product as directed and redeploy them.

    Thank you to all points of view.

  • Win7 is capable of being used on another computer after upgrading Win8 and 8.1?

    I got a computer with Windows 7 above. I bought the computer in kit form and assembled and installed Win7 as OEM. In 2012 I upgraded to Win8 64 bit. Now, I got free upgrade to 8.1 Win.  I had the 8 to win with a discount by hugh during the promo period because I had Win 7.

    So what is the Win7 are still stuck to this computer or I can use it on another computer? With Win8 the Win7 product key has been replaced.

    I am sure the Win7 will work on another computer, because the product key is not used and it will update OK. But is it legal to use it because I upgraded to Win8?
