Measures to upgrade Vista HW RAID1 system for 7?

Current system is Vista x 64 with two RAID1 arrays (including the system drive / boot), the RAID Motherboard (Intel chipset) controller.

What are the steps required to upgrade to Win 7 Ultimate x 64 (with RAID 1 migrated tables) on-site?

Is that need an upgrade in place as possible, given this new RAID driver for Win 7?

Thanks, guys, I appreciate the help.

Although there aren't still some of the characteristics of an independent RAID Intel Chipset RAID is a solution hardware, software is required for the management and within Windows error report. Just be aware that newer chipsets do not actually have built-in RAID. What chipset is your? I run an x 58 chipset that requires no driver to install.

For Intel RAID function is completely transparent to the windows and the iastor driver is built into Windows 7, the mirror will appear as its drive. Windows 7 has the same functionality of type F6 as XP, because it will provide the o/s controller card drivers but does not depend on a floppy and works via the USB port if necessary.

  • Upgrade Vista 32 and 64 for the recognition of additional memory and game performance

    I have a question for the computer.  I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9040n who has Windows Vista 32 - bit SP2 with 3 GB of memory.  From what I've been able to determine, the 32-bit version doesn't recognize up to 3.5 GB of memory and I need to install the 64 bit version of Windows Vista for additional memory can be installed AND recognized.  This system comes with the Core 2 Quad Q6600 (K) 2.4 GHz, at 1 066 MHz front side BUS and Socket 775.

    My question - would be upgrade to Windows Vista 64-bit and install another 4 GB for a total of 7 GB of extra memory for increased game performance.  Also, I have a graphics program which because of some image sizes (up to 96 inches - 19200 pixel everywhere) program that the bombs on me with "out of memory" messages.  I play World of Warcraft and Starcraft 2 right now.

    Thank you.

    In your case a newer graphics card improve performance much more compared to buying new RAM. You can then add more RAM. "A programmer is just a tool that converts the caffeine in code" Deputy CLIP - http://www.winvistaside.de/

  • Questions about upgrading Vista to Windows 7 for free as it was offered once?

    Several years ago I got when I was with Windows XP I spoke to Microsoft and said I could use the 64-bit and 32-bit disk on different computers, by using the same product key, but there are certain requirements.  I think the 2 computers were to be in the same place and I was the owner.  I'm a little hazy on the rules, but I know that I learned that I could use both versions 32 and 64 different bits with the same key.  I have a desktop running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional and a laptop running Vista.  Both are registered for me, but the laptop was a gift from our son for the wife who is disabled and never leaves the House except for visits to the doctor.  It comes preinstalled with Vista, but there were so many problems with Vista, Microsoft offers an automatic upgrade to Windows 7 at the time.  I never took advantage of this because Best Buy, where the laptop was purchased, wanted to get paid to do the upgrade.  My wife is now having a lot of trouble with various programs with Vista, I have two disc of Windows 7 Professional, I received directly from Microsoft, a 32-bit and 64-bit.  There is only 1 button, but I learned the upgrade to Windows 7 was supposed to be free.  I have much more knowledge now and can install the update myself, but can I use the 32 bit disc and the very key to do.  Otherwise, I would use the 32-bit disk and get a new key?  Where can I get a new key for the Vista upgrade to Windows 7 for free as it was offered once?

    This is incorrect information, product key for 1 license 1, 1 computer.

    Yes, and you can use it to activate on the same computer architecture.

    Sorry, but this offer no longer exist.

  • What are Service Packs? Can I upgrade to Service Pack 2 for free? If yes how? If I update it will help or hinder my system? Any pack is better than another?

    Windows Vista Service Pack (basic information)

    Hello

    I know this may seem a simple/stupid question, but I do not understand what are "Service Packs".  I don't know much about computers.

    I have restored my laptop to the factory setting today and I reinstall my programs again.  I am trying to install a new program as well (Autodesk Inventor 2012).  The installation says I can't because I need Service Pack 2 and I only have Microsoft Vista Home Premium (Version: 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001).

    What are Service Packs?  Can I upgrade to Service Pack 2 for free?  If yes how?  If I update it will help or hinder my system?  Any pack is better than another?

    Thanks for the information and assistance that you can give.

    AstoriaBoro

    You can install Service Pack 2 very simply - go to Windows Update and check for new updates - then install all available updates.

    Once they are complete, return again (after a reboot) and do the same thing - repeat until there are no left.

    Along the way you will be installed Service pack 2 :)

    I need help for the upgrade of my current system.

    I have SBS 2008 with (Exch 2007, SQL 2005, Sharepoint, backupexec 2010 for sbs) licenses.

    I want to make the larger environment using the following:

    (1) apply Virtualization

    (2) apply to the failover process (clustering)

    "(3) the environment must support adding server terminal server, ERP server, exchange server, domain controller, backup manager.

    suitable backup solution 7)

    (1) can you provide me with a good design for this environment

    (2) should I choose what operating system:

    Microsoft datacenter or company

    so if I have two Grouped servers I want to buy 4 licenses

    and just 4 VMs per company license... to say that we have two servers and maintain 8 vms so wat happened if 1 goes down... How can I migrate the 4 virtual machines on the server failed to another server group... ? should I buy enterprise license?

    (3) if I get the SAN storage for data... How can I save this storage... should I get another SAN?

    (4) how can I upgrade SBS stad single server (windows standrad) without losing the licenses as Exch 2007, SQL 2005, sharepoint.is it a must to buy an edition full std server or there is a way to upgrade (license wise, I mean)?

    (5) what about win2k8 license for VM:

    Hi all:

    For several weeks, I get a daily reminder to install the update "Windows Vista Service Pack 2 for x 64-based systems (KB948465)", but whenever I try to install it, it ends up by default, which gives 80246007 error code. What happened probably 30 times. It's driving me crazy, and at this point, I would like to know if it is still necessary to have. If this is the case, how can I get to install correctly? If this isn't the case, I can't the notification go away?

    Any help would be appreciated.
