  Alyosha,

  Remove or uninstall Windows Vista is possible in specific scenarios. You please clarify how you did your installation of Windows Vista?

  1. have you installed your new ultimate configuration on a new partition?

  2. have you you choose customized and placed the installation in the same partition as your old ultimate configuration? In this case you see two Windows folder in your C: drive / drive (or any other partition)? (Possibly with the .old extension)

  Start then in the version of Vista you want to keep and follow these steps to reformat the partition now unwanted Vista install and then uninstall.

  Note:

  • Formatting a volume will destroy all data on the partition. Be sure to make backups of all the data to save before you begin.
  • You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.
  • Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table, but do not completely overwrite or erase the volume. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases the existing data on the volume.

   

  1. open computer management by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-click computer management. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  2. in the Navigation pane, under storage, click disk management.

  3. right click on the volume that you want to format, and then click format.

  4. to format the volume with the default settings, in the format dialog box, click OK, and then click OK again.

• Restore Windows XP files saved via Windows Easy Transfer on the same computer

  After downloading and using Easy Transfer to back up files on an external hard drive (which is where they are now) for the purpose of upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7, I have now decided not to continue because the purchase of a new computer with Windows 7 already loaded is a purchase that I'll soon make and so I'd be disadvantaged I now realize given the short waiting period if I pass with a Windows 7 buy some now.
  My question is: I am now able to reverse the procedure and re - install these files which are located on Easy Transfer in the external hard drive?

• Re-activation of original window re-setup on the same computer

  I recently needed to upgrade my Internet Explorer V 11, otherwise my Quickbooks business software will stop working for online banking. I could not get the prerequisite updates for download, and support the Customer window came to the conclusion that I must use my original disc to 'fix' (misnomer because there is no option to fix) my installation. After an extensive attempt to re - install the operating system, I can't activate the product because, supposedly, my product key is not valid. It is the only one that came with my product, so have no other way to get the reactive product. The methods I found online to do so have failed.   What should I do now?

  Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

  Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

  I suggest before you stop and install the updates, disconnect from the Internet, first.

• Unable to activate Windows 7 Professional in spite of being a reinstall of the same product on the same computer

  Hello. I have a computer that was running Windows 7 Professional. The software has been installed on the computer and authentic and purchased several years ago. Due to problems, I had to reformat the HARD drive and reload Windows 7 Professional on the same computer using the same product key.

  Now it will not activate and comes up with an error 0xC004C020 code which States that "the activation server reported that the Multiple Activation key has exceeded its limit"

  I do not understand why this has happened. I bought the copy of Windows 7 Professional on ebay and I have the box, case and the two original disks of Windows 7 Professional, as well as the authentic product key sticker. He was recharged on the same computer that was originally activated copy (same product key)

  I have attached the report of diagnosis MGA below. Would like to find a solution for this. Thanking you in advance.

  Unfortunately a mass activation key is used by the company to activate several PC and not meant or sold for use by consumers.  Understanding the MAK Activation

  When you mention you bought on eBay that explains it pretty well because there are hundreds of early cases of consumers ripped off on eBay by Volume and TechNet keys sold illegally.

  If you don't have any other Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 license to use for the upgrade, what I would do is go ahead a buy Windows 10 and make the Clean 10 Windows Installer that has no complaints and if you stick with the steps in the link results in the best installation of the best OS who's going to stay that way as long as you do.

  You can not, for at least one (and two possible) reasons.

  1. it isn't clean if you want to have two computers, or you
  you want to remove from the old computer and put it on the new. If
  you want once, you can't do that - the rule is very clear: there
  a copy (or a license) for each computer.

  There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
  effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

  2. but even if you want it on a single and from uninstall
  the old computer, you can't do it. It is because if it came with the
  computer, it is an OEM version and the biggest drawback to he a
  OEM version, is that its license it permanently binds to the first
  It is installed on the computer. He can never legally be moved to another
  computer, sold or assigned (except with the original computer).

• Failed to load XP on the same computer using the product key on the case of the CPU.

  I uninstalled XP and tried to load Window 7 s. had driver problems. Let down. Now I can't reinstall XP on the same computer using the product key on the case. I get a message "invalid Key". It's a Dell PC 6 years, if that matters.

  As I said, you will need the manufacturer's recovery disk, or disk OEM System Builder.

  If it worked the first time, there is no reason that it will not work the second time on the same computer, as long as the Windows 7 is a full version.

  N °

  If you have Windows 7 with an OEM license agreement (it came pre-installed on the computer is the most likely scenario for this, but you can buy OEM copies so) or you have a license to retail (upgrade or full version) - the way your question is worded is very specific - you * can * install Windows 7 costs/clean on this same system as much as you wish.  A new hard drive won't stop you activation - well that at some point, you need to activate by phone, as opposed to over the Internet.

  Now - if the motherboard is replaced and it's licensed OEM and replacement was not that of the OEM that probably set up your computer...  Then you have a problem.

  Unless you happen to have a license of Windows 7 retail sales, so it is not related to the computer (motherboard).

• Is it possible to run Windows 7 * 32-bit and Windows 7 * 64-bit on the same computer?

  I have Windows 7 * 32 bit running in my computer. But a lot of games that is built on 64-bit do not work in my system. I tried to install Windows 7 * 64 Bit on another partition of my computer. But before the start of the system using the Windows 7 installation DVD, I get an error with the oxc00000e9 status. The info says: unexpected i/o error has occurred.

  My question is whether it can run Windows 7 * 32-bit and Windows 7 * 64-bit on the same computer. If so, how to install the Windows 7 * 64-Bit? Thank you.

  Yes, you can, but you will need to have a permit for it if you plan to have both on the same computer.

  the key that can be used with 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 is designed to drive 1. You cannot use install both. 1 license, 1 installation, so choose wisely. If you want to install Windows 7 32 or 64 bit on another partition or another computer, you must purchase an additional license.

  INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.

  a. one copy per computer. You can install one copy of the software on a single computer. This computer is "licensed computer.

  b. a computer license. You can use the software on up to two processors of the computer under license at some point. Except as provided in these license terms, you cannot use the software on any other computer.
