The upgrade to Windows 7 or later will preserve my personal files, applications, and settings?

Yes, the upgrade to Windows 7 or a later version will keep your files staff, settings, and applications.

  • the upgrade to windows 7 will eliminate current problems

    My wife's cell phone is currently running Vista. One day the phone let out this blood, and that the said laptop curdeling scream has been infected. I contacted IYOGY, and apparently the laptop had several viruses. They cleaned remotely and installed their anti virus, THE SHIELD. He has never been the same. It takes like 15 minutes or more to start, and that it runs slower than you can imagine. I thought maybe I could upgrade to windows 7. Who would solve the problem?

    In place upgrade likely would do nothing to solve your problem.  If your system is still host malware, that may very well be the source of your problems, the upgrade would not wipe out unless you do a clean install.  Your best option is to either a destructive restore to reinstall Vista on the recovery partition (if your computer has a restore partition - check your owner's manual) or by using the installation diskettes that may have come with your system and opting to allow the reader to be wiped.

  • One last question... The upgrade of Windows 7 will be a step forward or backward?

    An upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium really ultimately will make a very positive difference & great overall performance and use daily versus continuing to run Vista Home Premium on HP's newer models equipped with AMD Turion or Athlon processors such as the laptop DV2000 or m8200n Office?

    Personally, I like Windows 7 to Windows Vista, based on performance. The systems I use with Windows 7 to work faster now compared to performance with Vista.

    He could not make a huge difference or big, but you will feel a positive difference.

    A complete reinstallation of Vista may also do the trick. Back to factory fresh State (after copying out of the files that you can't afford to lose) by using the restore factory option provided by the manufacturer of the computer.  An upgrade to any version of Windows 7 might just put the questions along with the upgrade.

    The error is '80071aa7' which tries to update, do not and then try to update on every restart, and fails again and again.

    I want to upgrade to Windows 7 soon brings me to my question:

    The upgrade to windows 7 will fix the problem or I have to get it fixed before the update.

    Note: I found a solution for vista on RunonFriday.com blog, but it is a long process which seems to be the solution above my head.  Me would rather not attack is if Windows 7 will fix it anyway.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium: Tray Lock worked until the upgrade of Windows 10

    Since a year now, I have 1 locked drawer for our book of receipt only, easier than all the other printing set to automatically select the default tray to tray 2 (Tray 1 is locked and all)! But I tried the upgrade of Windows 10, that was an epic fail and my cpomputer was sent to the doctor for the day. When I came back I had to basically start over with a new computer. I have everything back to be better than before, but THIS problem! Receipts in Tray 1 and my payment software its configured for Tray 1 specifically for receipts. All other default things that select and always tray 2. I can't anything out of tray 1. HOWEVER, my boss's computer is on a network with it and when it prints a receipt from his computer he properly dispences Tray 1. Yet.

    Help! PLEASE, I BEG YOU!

    Lacey!

    Hi @L2thaJ,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you are unable to print correctly on tray 1 on your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-all-in-one printer. I will definitely do my best to help you.

    Is the other computer Windows 10 institutions, who works for printing on tray 1?

    It looks like Windows 10 and the software you are using does not work with the printer driver, what might happen.

    You are able to print to Tray 1, when printing from MS Word or Notepad?

    Please ensure that you use the latest printer driver for your printer.

    Download and run The printer Installation Wizard. The HP printer installation wizard detects automatically the best print available for your HP printer driver. It is only available for Windows 7, 8 and 10.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

  • Pavilion dv6: Intel Centrino Wireless - n 2230 will not activate after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Model A3E82AV number

    I've been avoiding Windows 10 because I knew something like this was going to happen, but I took the pludge.  Anyway, everything seemed to work but my wireless adapter.  After the upgrade, the rocker on the keyboard turns on and outside airplane mode, and I can't switch to map wireless in Windows settings.

    I can get wireless adapter to turn on, go into that in a minute, but if I shutdown or reboot, the problem returns.

    I had success in the driver update, or by manually installing the driver, I even read a tip to make the battery, hold the power button down while the battery is out and run it upwards.  I tried to reset the BIOs to default settings.  When the computer feels like it, the wireless adapter will start working after a reboot.  If I have the toggle switch, the light goes from orange to white, I can then activate wireless and connect to my SSID.  If I stop or restart, my wireless NETWORK card no longer works and we return to the toggle keyboard turning power on and off airplane mode.  Device Manager says it is working normally and the drivers are up to date.

    I read a post from microsoft that says VPN adapters could cause corruption while making the upgrade.  I'm a professional, so I got a handful of cards, but also virtual cards VMWare Workstation installed, so I tried to come back to Win 7, remove the adapters, are re-upgrade.  It does not solve the issue.  While I was back in Windows 7, everything worked most of the time, but there were some problems with the programs, etc. which would not work right.  When I upgraded to Windows 10, some of these problems persist, so I checked my backups to make sure they were up to date and did a new install of windows 10.  I am now running a new image with just firefox, associate of HP and the different drivers Intel, I tried to install, and I still can't get the card wireless to tour consistantly on / off power after a reboot.  I thought for sure the nuclear option could solve the problem now I can't even go back to Windows 7.  I did mention to try some recommended drivers Intel, I found in other posts... I also tried to uninstall the driver, and install in compatibility mode, but that has not worked, either.

    This one had me scratching my head.  I tried literally everything I can find on the internet in an attempt to solve the problem, and nothing will keep the work of consistantly wireless NETWORK card.  Any other ideas out there?

    Looking at the forums, appears not to have a lot of people in all areas of this issue with different brands of computers and network interface cards.  If anyone knows anything else to try, I would really appreciate it.

    FIXED!

    I think so.  I downloaded and installed the bios for Windows 8.  After that, I managed shutdown and booted my laptop 3 times and restarted once.  Every time you start after the installation of the firmware BIOs, the card automatically turned on and connected to my SSID NETWORK.  Since the upgrade to Windows 10 I saw not the laptop automatically start and connect the wireless NETWORK card and he did successfully 4 times now.

    The file that I downloaded from the HP Web site was update the BIOs for Windows 8 version F.2D rev A.  The file name is sp68425.  I will continue to monitor and make sure that it was indeed the fix, but all great so far.

    For people who can run on the same topic, here's a recap of what I did to solve my problem:

    Centrino 2230 installed 15.18.0.1 driver
    Update driver Bluetooth 10.0.10586.0

    Updated the BIOS to the version of Windows 8 F.2D Rev A

    If you decide to play with the BIOs firmware, just be aware that if things go well, you could cause more damage to your system.  I would only try this method if you are uncomfortable for the recovery of a faulty BIOS installation.

  • If the upgrade to windows 7, it will be able to read data discs my xp?

    If the upgrade to windows 7, it will be able to read data discs my xp? l have data recorded on cd and on Word, and then transferred to cd/disc, to save. My XP PC can read the disc on reinstalling Microsoft Works, which has the word inside program. Windows 7 will be able to read these discs of data?

    Hi steve,.

    Just to make sure I understand, you have the Word documents on them with backup discs and wondering if they will be recognised by Windows 7.
    If this is the case, then you should not have to worry. Windows 7 will read the disc properly. However, as with XP, you will need to install the correct program that you would use to open files.
    In other words, if they are Word documents, then you will need to have MS Word installed or installed works for viewing.
    Hope this helps and let me know if you need more information.
