The upgrade of can I have Vista to Windows 7 using the installation disc
I remember, before disconnecting my wireless internet, using Windows Vista (I have Vista on my laptop) and given the opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7. I had my internet is turned off and turn it back on and I tried this again, and now all I have is the Vista installation option, which I have. Why? I want to upgrade to Windows 7. Help! :-)

LuckyHelloI have Windows Vista SP2 on my machine. can I he move to Windows 7 using Windows 7 Ultimate draft?
A preliminary version is not a permanent solution and to this date can not activate or update properly. You have two choices:
(1) get you a Windows 7 upgrade version. (2) Windows 7 Trial (see the last part of my post).
With a choice, it is always a good idea to create a backup Image of your hard drive before moving from Vista to Windows 7.

I have recently upgraded to windows 10 and hope to do a clean install, but I had not given this option. On the Microsoft site, I've been advised to go back to my previous version of Windows, 7 and then repeat the upgrade. I did and when I tried to upgrade, he did a validation test to see if my copy of windows is genuine and she failed the test. He had the validation test before that I first have to upgrade to Windows 10, where it is spent. I have more the product key, or the installation disc. Can anyone help?

Hello, I'm Michael.
I'm a guy who lives in Hong Kong, I bought a laptop that comes with Chinese traditional x 64 Windows 7 Home Preium. I want to use this laptop as a computer professional. Because I don't want to use Chinese as my default language in my computer, so I'm going to upgrade my computer I have subscribed the TechNet, so I downloaded an iso file from the Microsoft TechNet Web site. I downloaded an English x 64 to windows 7 Ultimate. I hope it would work, but an error message is skipped during the upgrade. It is said: you can do an upgrade using an installation disc that's different from the language installed on your computer. Go online to see how to install Windows 7 and keep your files and settings.I tried to press the hyperlink (go online) and it does not at all. I have to ask this question to the Microsoft Answers and see if if anyone can give come me advice because I do not want to click on the custom button because there are some files saved in my computer. So I need answers as soon as possible because I could die without a PC! Thanks for all those who read this and you time.No direct path to the evolution of the Chinese language to English. But you can upgrade your version of Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate (upgrade Express). Ultimate has support for English and a number of other languages.

I have a laptop Windows 7 with Acrobat installed Standard XI. The program was already installed on my laptop, so I don't have the installation disc. I'm getting error 1334 and Error 1311 indicating the "file Source not found." Do you have recommendations for repair? As a reminder, the software was already installed on my computer so I don't have the installation disc. Thank you.
MST can be downloaded from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html, but you may have problems depending on the operating system and if you have a volume license or upgrade. If the download works for you, don't forget to make a backup on another medium for the future.

I bought a laptop with a windows xp pro, I have the serial number, but I don't have the installation disc. How can I know which version I need? SP3 has not worked... at the moment I am testing SP1
The serial number of the computer has nothing to do with the product key for Windows.
What happened when you tried to install Xp with sp3? If you do not have the original for the computer that you use to install Windows?
You can try to contact the manufacturer of the computer who may be able to provide the recovery disc. The disks are usually under $ 20.

On OSX 10.11.2 I try to install CS5 but he repeated to me that the installation disc is damaged? You can see on my account that I have a serial number. CS5 can work on my new laptop?
Since it is a forum of number, not many people here can see that you have a serial number. Running older software on the latest machines is always questionable. There are many applications, I sitting on discs (some 3.5 or 5 inch disks) in a box that won't do anymore of that for the rest of their lives.
If the disk has a problem then you should try to download instead.
