Recently, I bought a new laptop with Windows Vita installed on it. Windows 7 cannot replace the Windows Vista on my laptop? In addition, it would be a better option for me?
Install the new Windows 7.
This is the Forum for Windows Update.
Read the info below and for other Windows 7 repost in the Windows 7 Forums; the link below:
How does the Windows 7 upgrade Option?
The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program works on June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option.

I bought a new computer with Windows 7 free upgrade. We also have another office.
I bought a new computer with Windows 7 free upgrade. We also have another desktop computer. My son has paid and downloaded Windows 7 Home Premium on this computer (Asus), not knowing that I had the free update. ASUS sent me free upgrade disks. Can I use these on another desktop computer? Or I can download Windows on another desktop computer and transfer my registration to it, and then use the Asus drives on this computer?
Your question has nothing to do with the functionality of Windows Update (vs Windows upgrade), Jan.
That being said, Asus only can answer your specific question. Good luck!

I have a computer with windows 7 to run on it. I have 2 files of images on my current computer and bought a new computer with windows installed 10. Can I copy these files to a dvd and transfer them to the new computer with windows 10 installed. If so, how can I do it and ask what I should do?
Hello Kenneth
See my response to a similar q in the thread above...
You can use DVD or CD, but an external drive or a USB is so much faster and easier.
Best regards, Ric.

Any fix would be provided on the program site, which probably means that you need an update. The latest version which is compatible win7 is v 10.0

I have a psc 2210 all-in-one printer that I love. I bought a new computer with Windows 7 and I can't make it work. The HP site said that I don't have to download the drivers because windows 7 has already installed, but the main thing is that I can't make it work. Anyone, please help. My printer works perfectly and I can't afford to buy another. (I have a 64 bit)
HP should contribute to this situation. I'm a loyal customer of Hp, but it's ridiculous that they do not create a driver to work with their printers. All computers are coming with Windows 7. HP please find a solution!
I could get my HP PSC 2210 all-in-one to print! I don't know exactly, because I've tried everything I could think of. My son is a computer on which it has upgraded to windows 7 (64-bit) several months ago - he was able to successfully print on my printer immediately. I just did an install complete (I bought the full version, not upgrade) to windows 7 (64 bit) - a couple of days and I'm finally to the point where I'm trying to connect printers. Here is what I tried... again, I tried several things, although I've been in that general area...
connect the printer to the computer
go to the CONTROL PANEL--> Device Manager
Click the arrow to the left of the IMAGING DEVICES (to be developed)
RT click on printer PSC 2200 (should be listed under imaging devices)
Select PROPERTIES--> DRIVER, then uninstall
Select / tick "remove the driver for the device.
the printer will disappear from the Device Manager (and peripheral Imaging also if it was the only selection)
Unplug the printer to computer
re - connect the printer to the computer
Device Manager automatically updated (takes a few minutes, the screen refresh let until the yolk! disappears).
Go to the control panel--> devices and printers
Select printer PSC 2200, select Customize your printer, then the printed test page
I hope that you will get a valid test page. If this is not the case, another option I tried was:
Through the above scenario. When you get to the step "select PROPERTIES--> DRIVER, then uninstall" Select UNINSTALL directly from this menu (be sure to select/check "remove software pilot")
Continue with the remaining steps above.
I also tried 'Update Driver' of one of the previous screens above... I would like to know if you have a bit of luck! I'm sorry that's not accurate. Yet once, I tried everything I could think of, and something finally worked! (I don't think I tried to 'Turn off the pilot') Good luck! .........

I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro and I just bought a new pc with Windows 8. I can't find a download. Is there 1 or Acrobat 7.0 Pro compatible and if not, is there a suggestion in addition to spend more money on another product? Thank you.
Hello
According to the system requirements for Acrobat pro 7, it is recommended to use it on Windows 8 machines.
However, you can try to install and run using compatibility mode. You can download it from the following link
Download Adobe Acrobat 7 and Adobe Creative Suite 2
Note: as this product activation server is switched off, you will need to use the key to series mentioned next to the link to download during installation.

Computer of my wife is dead, so I did a new one supplied with Windows 7 already installed. Can I sell the box Windows 7 Upgrade CD I bought for his old computer? We no longer use this license - we pulled the hard drive of the old computer OS and make it like a secondary on his new computer. If the license is no longer used by us - or it will never again - but I do not know if someone would experience difficulties to activate if they we bought because I do not know if we can 'turn off' the old license.
Yes, you can sell it, you will need to inform the seller that they may have to use the phone activation because it was already in use:
How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
(2) press the ENTER"" key.
(3) select your "country" in the list.
(4) choose the option "activate phone".
(5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
(6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.
