• The upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional on a Netbook

  I recently bought a Dell Mini 1012 and I think to upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional. I have the code key for Windows 7 Professional from MSDNAA or something like that. My question is, if I upgrade Windows 7 Starter to professional, I should install the new drivers for the netbook or those already installed for Starter would work with professional? I would use Windows Anytime Upgrade.

  Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Starter share the same driver model because its the same code base, so you shouldn't have to get new drivers.

  If the license for Windows 7 Professional, you have access to is a retail version upgrading or complete (MSDNAA License are), you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional. Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, follow the on-screen Wizard, enter the key to Windows 7 Professional on demand, click on, and then restart your computer when you are prompted. Less than 10 minutes, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional and your files and settings retained.

  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.

  This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

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

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Samsung: Press the F4 key to the Samsung logo when you turn first.

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

• Product key not working only not for the upgrade from Windows 7 starter to win 10

  I have two Asus EEEPCs came with Windows 7 Starter.  The product key is on the bottom of the devices.  And they are completely legible.   4 years ago by ish and over the years the installations of Windows crashed, one of them, I installed Linux, the other, I played a bit with the installation of Android.  Today, I have upgraded to Windows 10 for each of them, wipe the disk and did a full install from USB.  One of them was perfectly, the second installation won't take the period key, the product license.  I even tried to change the characters only TWO that could be incorrect due to friction vs O Q and still nothing.   is there a way to send an image of the product key to Microsoft and someone to tell me what the heck is wrong with it?

• Error 0x80072efd upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 10

  I downloaded the upgrade of 10 the Windows Wizard on a Windows 7 Starter device. When I open the wizard and start the real Windows 10 download, I get a message 'something was wrong' with error 0x80072efd, saying I should check the network settings and try again. Although I am currently connected to a network of WiFi signal. I tried several times, even uninstall the upgrade wizard and reinstall again - but the same error occurs. How can I fix this error?

• Upgrade Windows 7 Starter to professional on an Asus Netbook

  I've upgraded Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Pro on my Asus Netbook. Seems to be going smoothly, but slow execution of programs and surf the web.  I guess that I expected an improvement. I went to Windows Update at any time, when he asked my key updated code it tells me that the code is not valid. (I really wish that it would allow you to cut and paste in the confirmation e-mail.)

  Is that what I can do before calling customer support Monday? Is an increase in the speed an unrealistic expectation?
  Thanks in advance.

• Windows 7 Starter to Professional or Windows 8 Pro?

  Hello. I have a series netbook Sony Vaio W (VPCW210AL) with a 1.67 GHz intel Atom CPU 450, 2 GB RAM, 320 GB hard drive on a Windows 7 Starter 32 bit OS. I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8. Is this possible? Will recommend you it? I use the netbook mainly for work while traveling. Starter does not satisfy me. Windows anytime upgrade does not work for me since I live in the Mexico. According to 8 Windows anytime upgrade, which I downloaded from Microsoft, I can install Windows 8 Pro, but there are three issues that concern me: 1) I won't be able to boot the machine in safe mode, if I had to (I've never had to). 2) there is a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials (I'm not terribly concerned about this). AND (3) there is a problem with my Bluetooth of WIDCOMM software, the wizard will not tell me what the problem is, he only directs me to the site. This last issue is one that concerns me. I like my netbook, I saw them running under Linux pretty well, but I want to stay with Windows for now. Should I get Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8 a disc from a local store and install it without fear of the unknown that happens? I'd appreciate your advice. Thank you! -Jorge.  P.S.: so poorly set up an account to post this a question!

  Hello. I have a series netbook Sony Vaio W (VPCW210AL) with a 1.67 GHz intel Atom CPU 450, 2 GB RAM, 320 GB hard drive on a Windows 7 Starter 32 bit OS. I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8. Is this possible?

  I personally recommend that you improve this Netbook to Windows 7 Professional instead of Windows 8, mainly for technical reasons.

  Netbooks aren't friendly Windows 8.

  A new element of Windows 8 is the requirement that type metro applications have a minimum screen resolution 1024 x 768 and 1366 x 768 for the component feature snap-in. If you try to launch a Metro style app with less of this resolution (800 x 600, 1024 x 600), you will receive an error message.

  Most Netbooks do not go above 1024 x 768

  Will recommend you it? I use the netbook mainly for work while traveling. Starter does not satisfy me. Windows anytime upgrade does not work for me since I live in the Mexico.

  I would recommend that you purchase a license of Windows 7 Professional upgrade and use the product key with Anytime Upgrade in Windows 7 Starter to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional.

  Where can I still get Windows 7?

  Version upgrade-

  Microsoft Windows 7 Professional upgrade

  According to 8 Windows anytime upgrade, which I downloaded from Microsoft, I can install Windows 8 Pro, but there are three issues that concern me: 1) I won't be able to boot the machine in safe mode, if I had to (I've never had to).

  Windows 8 can start safe mode by repeatedly pressing F8 before Windows 8 load when you start your Netbook. You can also start it by pressing the Windows key + I > change PC settings > General

  2) there is a problem with Microsoft Security Essentials (I'm not terribly concerned about this).

  Windows 8 comes with Windows Defender built in which is the successor to Security Essentials, as well as other security features such as Smart Screen Filter.

  AND (3) there is a problem with my Bluetooth of WIDCOMM software, the wizard will not tell me what the problem is, he only directs me to the site.

  If the driver is compatible with Windows 7, what you can do is to just reinstall the driver after completing Setup of Windows 8. It's just that sometimes the devices interfere with the Windows installation.

  This last issue is one that concerns me. I like my netbook, I saw them running under Linux pretty well, but I want to stay with Windows for now. Should I get Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8 a disc from a local store and install it without fear of the unknown that happens?

  If I had the choice, I'd go with Windows 7 Professional, works better and will be supported until 2020.

  I'd appreciate your advice. Thank you! -Jorge.  P.S.: so poorly set up an account to post this a question!

• Error: failed to create or save new files in the folder where it was downloaded during the upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7

  Attempt to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7

  I try to update my Windows Vista to Windows 7. I bought to download the rom update the Microsoft store and downloaded, but when I try to start the upgrade I have a stateing message that it is impossible to create or save new files in the folder where it was downloaded. I checked the security permissions in the file and made sure that no programs are 'read only', but it won't always go beyond this point!

  Hello
  
  What is the edition of Windows Vista installed on the computer?
  Make sure that you upgrade to the correct version, some versions of Windows cannot be upgraded with the installation disc you are trying to use. For example, you cannot upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version, or upgrade a higher edition of Windows like Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, to a lower edition, such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. If this is the case, you will need to use the custom during installation option.
  Before you attempt to upgrade, please run the Windows 7 upgrade Advisor:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor
  Also, check if your computer is compatible for Windows 7, using the Compatibility Center:
