  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

• Do we need to purchase the license to upgrade the VCS, VCSe and TMS?

  Hello

  We need to get a new license when upgraded version of VCS, VCSe and TMS?

  Hi Kelvin,

  xxx. OVA files are package files to deploy the VCS on virtualize platforms.

  Release key are required to upgrade the VCS for major updates. for p. ex. upgrade of x 6 x 7 software version worm.

  However for improvements minor as x7.2 to x7.2.2 these are the released hotfix version or bux fixes release and you don't need a license for this upgrade.

  in any case if you your devices are less covered by valid contract you can get the license key anytime just contact cisco license team on "[email protected] / * /" and they should be able to provide the necessary license.

• A volume license upgrade Windows 8 to 8.1 requires a purchase of a new license?

  If I have a Windows 8 on my machine that fails to get at the store level because it's a volume license copy, my organization will pay for a new license of Windows upgrade me Windows 8.1? I found information online to download a copy from the volume license server. However, I am not an administrator at my company, just a frustrated user of unupgradable Windows 8, so I don't really know what it means. If we spend only one book, I can be sure my company won't pay for it (or purchase will not go through the pipeline before Windows 10 lot).

  It's frustrating that Windows 7 users can for example install IE11, users can 8.1 Windows, but not those blocked on Windows 8...

  Windows 8 volume license distributions, such as Windows 8 Pro and Enterprise using KMS and MAK licenses must be updated by downloading the installation files for Windows 8.1 since the volume or TechNet/MSDN license health center if you have a subscription or install based on the settings of your employers.

• Can I transfer my license to upgrade to Windows 7 on a new computer? The system on which it is has reached the end of his life.

  At the launch of Windows 7 I bought one a version upgrade to upgrade XP on my Dell PC to W7 professional.  This PC has reached the end of its useful life, and I intend to give it up (literally).  I would like to transfer the license to upgrade for my Dell Netbook that W7 Starter Edition is installed.  Can I do this?

  Graham.

  Thank you very much, this is very useful.  Can I just confirm what constitutes an acceptable method of removing of Dell PC?  I have to do something to turn off allow it on the Dell PC before removing it?  I can't uninstall it (because the update of XP should be a clean install) so my options are delete and format the hard drive (my supported option, can I use it for storage) or go back to XP using an Acronis Disk image that I kept from the time of the upgrade.  Whatever it is, I imagine that Microsoft have to take my word that I removed?

  Graham.

  Yes, as long as its not in use on the computer. I would restore the Acronis Disk image that had saved you.

• ESXi 5.1.0 adding new license

  Hello

  I installed vmware ESXi 5.1.0 with free license last year. And today a new license of vSphere Essentials 6.

  Now, I want to add new license to esx, but it gives me

  License downgrade WARNING

  Some features will be unavailable after the transfer of license

  Host: my host name

  from: unlimited

  to: unlicensed

  The following features will be unavailable

  * Up to 32 GB of memory

  * Up to 8-way SMP

  Caveat. is this normal? I would add new license without no problem safely? And now I can't add 192 GB of memory without limits?

  Thank you

  If you need to keep up with the 5.x version and not upgrade to version 6, you have you downgrade the v6 license key because it does not work with v5.x Setup.

  See VMware KB: how to move license keys in my VMware for more information on decommissioning in MyVMWare.

  That's why you get the ' to: without a license "message, because the key to the v6 is not valid in v5.

  He is former generation and it has a large number of vulnerabilities.

• Licenses vs Upgrade vSphere ESX to ESXi immigration?

  Hello

  The current environment has three hosts ESX4.0 with the Advanced license and vCenter Standard. Upgrade to Enterprise Plus, is little pain due to costs involved that. Each CPU will cost about $ 2400, which will include the support of the company "Active Advanced Support of license will not be considered, it is directed by represensitve sale."

  Because eventually retired ESX and ESXi will only be one, I think migrating to ESXi. But, what I have to buy a new license for the ESXi or existing vCenter license will be able to manage ESXi hosts?

  If I'm going to buy a new license for the ESXi, what are these licenses and what will be the cost of it?

  Thank you

  ESXi is a constituent of the vSphere4. You will still need to upgrade your edition of desire, as advance to normalize or all at the same company for storage vmotion & DRS.

  I use win vista Home premium... If I nest to format my pc should I buy a new license? Pls help me

  If you already have a license, you need not to buy another. You can reinstall Windows as often as you want.

  However, reformatting and reinstalling Windows because you have a problem are almost always a very bad answer to the problem and almost bever should be done. It is usually very difficult and often causes its own problems.

  With a minimum of care, should never be to reinstall Windows (XP or any other version). I ran Windows 3.0, 3.1, WFWG 3.11, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 now, each for the period of time before the next release is out and everyone on two or more machines here. I never reinstalled none of them (with one exception--a problem that I worked on for weeks without success), and I've never had anything more than an occasional minor problem.

  It is my belief that this erroneous notion comes from the technical support people in most of the major OEMs. Their solution to almost any problem, for they know not quickly answer is "reformat and reinstall. It is the ideal solution for them. It gets you phone turned off quickly, it almost always works, and it does not need to do any real troubleshooting (a skill that most of them has obviously not in any great degree).

  But it leaves you with all the work and all the problems. You must restore all backups of your data, you must reinstall all of your programs, you must reinstall all Windows and updates of the application, you must locate and install all the necessary drivers for your system, you will need to recustomize Windows and all your applications to work the way you are comfortable with.

  In addition to all these things being long and painful, you may encounter difficulties with some of them: you will find all your CDs application? You will find all the necessary installation codes? You have data backups to restore? You still remember all the customizations and settings that can be installed to make everything work the way you like it? Sometimes there are problems that are so difficult to resolve that Windows has to be reinstalled properly. But they are few and far between; RESETTLEMENT should not be a substitute for troubleshooting; It should be a last resort, to do that once all other troubleshooting by qualified person attempts have failed.

  And perhaps most important: If you reformat and reinstall without knowing what caused your problem, you will most likely repeat the behavior that caused it and quickly find yourself in exactly the same situation.

  If you have any problems, post the details of them here; It is likely that someone can help you and you won't have to reinstall.

• BBserver needs new license after restart of all windows
