• The upgrade to Windows 7 Professional Windows and not Windows 8?

  I have Windows 7 on my computer. I bought an upgrade to Windows 7 Professional last year. When I try to update I get sent to Windows 8 upgrade. How can I get Windows 7 to Windows 7 Professional without buying an upgrade of Windows 8?

  Is the Professional Windows 7, upgrade or an Express upgrade?

  The first thing you need to do is to get your key to Windows 7 Professional upgrade Express:
   
  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.
   
  What happens if I lose my product key?
   
  If you lose your product key, you can return to

  www.Windows7.com/GetKey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID. If you do not configure a Windows Live ID account initially there is no record of your online product key. Check your e-mail since it is the only trace of your product key.

  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.

  -HP use F9 on most of its systems
   
  -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems
   
  -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

  -Dell uses F12
   
   
   
  In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.
   
   
   
  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.

• Problem with the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 Ultimate

  Hello

  My Dell laptop came pre-installed with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit version. But there was a hardware problem, and I had to re - reinstall Windows 7 on my Dell laptop. But then, without knowing it, I installed Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (for which I had the key too) & began to work on it. Later, when some drivers were not installed correctly because of compatibility issues, I realized the truth.

  Then I tried to update my Windows 7 Professional current operating system to Windows 7 Ultimate-operating system by using Windows Anytime Upgrade without having to re - install Windows from scratch, I have so many applications and data on my laptop now. And I used the key of Windows 7 Ultimate version I have with my Dell laptop. But the key is not be accepted by the Windows Anytime Upgrade application and the following error message is displayed:

  "Enter a different upgrade key

  The upgrade key you have entered is an edition of Windows that does not work with Windows Anytime Upgrade. Enter a different upgrade key. "

  Please help me in this regard to solve this problem so that I can improve my Windows 7 operating system without having to re - install from scratch.

  Thank you

  Romaric

  Note: Retail 'Full' or 'Upgrade' product keys will work when you use the Express Upgrade feature.

  Upgrade Express 'can' not work (check with the manufacturer of the computer support team) for users who have the OEM and system integrators or keys, this applies also to VL (Volume License), - MSDN Academic Alliance (MSDNAA) / DreamSpark or pedagogical keys that does not / do support the Anytime Upgrade option. KMS users consult your administrator before attempting to perform an Express upgrade.

  The key that came with your mobile PC is an OEM key, which most likely why it fails to upgrade.

• Presario sr2030nx need drivers after the upgrade to windows 7 ultimate 64 bit

  Presario sr2030nx had xp media center edition, I've updated to win 7ultimate 64 bit. my dvd player says he has a few drivers disabled

  There was a pop up on all drivers must be signed, as an unknown device is lack of both pilots.

  Please help me find a solution, thank you.

  That particual error happens because of pilot missing generally regarded as 'Away Mode Driver'

  Here's what I copied THIS post

  Explanation I understand
  
  AMD away mode is a measure of the implementation of some energy-saving AMD processors. It is a measure not very well known and the reason the PC is slowly put one out of State a device at the same time leaving a PC race that looks like it is off. Not a very good idea!
  Drivers were provided by a card mother manufacturers were also built in Vista, they are not provided with Windows 7 x 64 and as I already mentioned Gigabyte.
  No no not this driver does not affect the performance of the PC

• Error - missing operating system after the upgrade to Windows XP Professional from Windows XP Home Edition.

  I have a Dell which had windows xp home installed on it I upgraded a while back to pro, the problem is the operating system that you are completely crushed and all I have is a cd to upgrade so it won't let me install because it said that missing operating systems... so what can I do that won't cost me a thing!

  Hi mistyblu976,

  This problem may occur if one or more of the following conditions are met:

  (a) basic input/output system (BIOS) does not detect the hard drive.

  (b) the hard disk is damaged.

  (c) sector 0 of the physical disk has an incorrect or malformed master boot (MBR) record.

  You can follow this link & check if it helps.

  I tried to reinstall windows 7 after installing my new mainboard Asus M5A97 THE R2.0, but the process stops at 1-2% and raises the 0x8007045D

  Error message. I quickly put in shape and repartitionated HARD drive. Still the same error. I tried again after formatting the HARD drive with partition wizard, low
  repartitionated once again, still getting error 0x8007045D.
  Also updated my bios, did chkdsk assistants / partition sector audit, which both say the HARD drive is fine, installed xubuntu and archlinux with no problem, reformatted and repartitioned once again, changed my SATA controller in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE, has released 1 RAM module, tried to win 7 64-bit Professional without SP1 and win 7 32 bit Prof. I ran the install disc in both UEFI and normal mode (of course with GPT table partition mode uefi and mbr in normal mode), tried to cables and SATA connectors, different and burnt and tried them all iso alone at least two times (with different programs).
  Installing Windows from USB Flash Drive also tried.

  Wow, looks like you have almost tried everything to what is material.

  The cause for the error code is often a scratched or dirty facility...

  Since you've already tried to burn multiple ISOs, it could be your optical drive.

• Can we use this product key on the back of the laptop for the activation and the windows 7 Professional 32-bit to windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade?

  I have a laptop HP originally shipped with windows 7 32-bit professional. Now I want to upgrade to windows 7 professional 64 bit. I don't have with me installation disk. So I thought that it is possible (and legal) to resume an installation of windows 7 professional 64 bit disc from a friend and use this product key on the back of my laptop computer to activate windows after the installation of 64-bit? I'm a bit confused.

  NOTE: This sticker on the laptop has windows 7 pro oa, and a product key to 25 digits (xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx) written on it.

  In addition, the product ID in the information system in the control panel is OEM.

  Yes, you can use the product key located on the COA sticker with a full retail version or the version upgrade Windows 7 Professional disc.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

  Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7
  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.
