Pvilion dv7 1210tx: want to update for win 7

Hi, I am eager to finally move from win vista to win7. I have the disk to upgrade of the original offer. I don't know if it is still valid. I chose to not upgrade vista well worked for me. However vista support is slowly stop. Google chrome gives more updates from April this year etc. What should I do to upgrade the computer. I have 32 bit, the original offer upgrade disk, and a store bought win 7 64 bit that is not associated with hp. I'm afraid I'm losing drivers such as the sound with Altec lansing among others. The computer has enough features to supprt this and it still works very well. I would like to keep it as a second computer for backup. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you Gary

If you have Win 7 64 bit IE is a never active key Code I'd install clean. At this point your computer would probably really use a new facility to make it run faster. If you are using Vista 32-bit, you can do an upgrade to 64-bit in any case. You can use Windows Easy Transfer to migrate files and settings, but not programs.

All applications installed at the factory and the drivers are in the folder in C:\swsetup. Vista 64 bit drivers will usually work on Windows 7, but HP supports a full range of Windows 7 drivers on this model:

I don't think it's a major concern. It uses DDR2 memory and can be upgraded to 8 GB with 64-bit Windows but 4 GB DDR2 laptop modules are very expensive, while the 2 gig modules are cheap if she didn't 4 concerts I would switch to 4 gigs.

    Hi I bought a new PC and need to upgrade all these years I was with win XP pro 32 bit, I need to switch to Win 7 pro. 64 bit...
    what I have to buy a new copy of license or just pay the amount of the upgrade to the new version of windows? If so how do I do that?

    You will need to purchase a new license, unfortunately, you can't buy just the product key, you'll need to buy the package, given that Microsoft is no longer selling just the key.

    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.

  • Satellite L300 - where can I order CDs of update for Win 7

    Hi all

    I find my Vista starts so long time, about five minutes, and now I want to upgrade to win 7,.
    Where can I order the CD Update for win 7 from the Toshiba site. Thank you

    Hello

    You cannot order this disk from Toshiba.
    You can order just a recovery disk. But if you laptop came with Vista, then the recovery disk contains the Vista OS and not Win 7.

    If you want to use Win 7, you can buy this OS and then you could install it on the laptop. Win 7 drivers should be available on the European driver page

  • Why the update for win - 7 taking a lot of time?
