Issue of license OEM Windows 7 Home Premium

Can I use my Toshiba laptop on the machine license even if I do a complete formar? (No recovery/backup)

Yes, you can.

New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  • Install Windows 7 Pro the Dell laptop w / OEM Windows 7 Home Premium

    I have a bit of a MESS! Bought a Dell Latitude Laptop online, which was supposed to have Windows 7 Pro.  When receipt he did 7 Home Premium. Found I had problems with some XP programs running and finished by the seller to send me a genuine disc "Réinstallation DVD Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit," Dell and a key COST and product.  My concern - since they are BOTH the OEM versions of the operating system and a new drive a "Reinstall" rather than an "upgrade" - is that going to reformat my hard drive and destroy all my drivers and the factory pre-installed programs?  Dell installs a number of vital programs to run the webcam, diagnostics, audio, secure data backup, etc., and all necessary hardware drivers, but they do not send copies of disc.  How to backup all this?  And then, everything I need to copy from the system to be able to reinstall the programs?  Seems an almost impossible process... A drive to "Reinstall" OEM gives you an option to simply replace the operating system and everything still leave it alone?  I certainly don't want to start without knowing what I am getting into.

    Would appreciate certainly no help...

    Nancy

    Thanks for your quick response. I'm a little nervous because of all the issues that I had with this laptop - then just one last question for confirmation - if I buy a key to upgrade to 7 Pro AND use the Express Upgrade Wizard, it WILL NOT reformat my hard drive?

    That's right, see how it works:

    http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/26/Windows-7-anytime-upgrade-%E2%80%93-unlocking-more-benefits/


    When I am in fact, drivers for all my hardware and programs installed and my data will always be there and accessible under the new OS? Thank you. Nancy

    That is right.

  • Issue of license upgrade: Windows XP Home - > Win7 Pro?

    Microsoft licenses allow an install WinXP Home to upgrade to Win7 Pro through the 'Upgrade' of Win7 Pro edition?

    Thank you

    Microsoft licenses allow an install WinXP Home to upgrade to Win7 Pro through the 'Upgrade' of Win7 Pro edition?

    Thank you

    Yes, Windows XP Home Edition can be an eligible license, but you will need to do a custom installation, there is no direct upgrade path from it.

    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.

  • Updated OEM Windows 7 Home premium to professional. Never asked a product key. Why not?

    Just upgraded my computer asus laptop k55a - win 7 Home premium pre-installed - for win 7 pro, using anytime upgrade. The computer was purchased about 2-3 years ago.

    What intrigues me is that he never asked me for a win 7 pro key. I activated windows and thought he would ask me at least during activation, but no. Not that I have a problem with it, but, why is this?

    It bothers me that I do not understand the process. If I knew more I would have done things a lot differently, as do not go to any installed on other partitions etc. That came with a lot of trouble.

    With the help of the Express Upgrade Wizard does not prompt you for a product key because its all made the Internet. You should have been sent the product key in case you need to reinstall.

    Will send me you a confirmation email with my product key?

    Yes. An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.

    If you did not, try to recover it now and enter him and put it somewhere safe.

  • I need to remove installed OEM Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and install XP. Help please!

    It is a new work computer, not my personal machine.  Our main piece of software, ACT! 2000, will not work on W7.  We bought the new law! 2010, but he does not play well with the rest of the desktop computers, server included.  I know that the best thing to do would be to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro, and then load Windows Virtual PC to run XP.  But because of $$$ and $$$ already spent on this new computer, upgrade to W7 Pro is not on the table right now.

    And am not extremely computer, but I get.  :)  I did a lot of reading on the erasure of Windows 7 & install XP, and I've seen a lot read on hardware/driver problems: ATA, AHCI and SATA configurations... now I'm just lost.

    Is there someone who can tell me, in terms of Joe 6-pack , how to proceed?

    Once, my new Dell Inspiron 560 came loaded with Windows 7 Home Edition, and I need to remove it completely and install Windows XP, I have the disc.

    Thanks a bunch!

  • Due to corrupt files, I had to format my computer HARD drive which had OEM Windows Vista Home Premium 32, now I couldn't find it, I want the same real OS, what do I do?

    My laptop is Toshiba Satellite p300 version made. Is it possible for me to download and install a trial version of Vista 32 and enter the serial number given at the back of my laptop to save it? I don't want to buy another OS, while I already paid for it. Comments, tips, suggestions, and help is appreciated! Thank you.

    Hello

    Why did did you format it. That's what you had to do to reinstall Vista.

    https://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/bulletinDetail.jsp?soID=2737864&PF=true

    If the mentioned in this link recovery Partition is destroyed, you will need to contact Toshiba and see if they have Vista recovery discs available.

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    They provide, for a fee.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit - 2nd PC installation issue

    I bought a PC in 2013 which came with Win7 Home Premium DVD, which I installed it myself. No problem, all good - not until now. The hard drive is dead and I need to reinstall on a new HD and, in the process, a new PC too.

    I did, but after 30 days, there is a message stating that the software is not legitimate, no doubt, as it was installed on the original PC. Now, there is limited functionality.

    It seems to imply that it is only possible to install it on the PC, it has been applied for in the first place. As I paid for it and have the DVD in my hands, how to install and work on this second PC now? It seems unfair that I have to pay again, although I was under the impression that the software can be installed on up to three PCs anyway.

    Thank you very much.

    If the license that came with your computer is an OEM Windows 7 Home Premium, then you can not transfer it.

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    Hello

    If vista is preinstalled, motherboards change should be done in conjunction with the manufcacturer of the computer

    preinstalled OEM licenses are tired to the original material on which they are installed

    the license dies when the computer dies

    If a retail license, you can change morherboards

    borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista
