  • Can I use my Win 7 Pro Upgrade to upgrade my laptop running Win 7 Home?

    I bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade before realizing that I had bought the wrong upgrade to what I had on my computer. I ended up having to buy a Win 7 Home, then update to Win 7 Ultimate, so I could keep all my programs in tact. Now, I'm about to get a laptop. If the laptop has Windows 7 Home installed, can I use my Win 7 Pro upgrade for the version of Win 7 Home upgrade? If not, what version on the laptop do I need if I can use my already purchased Win 7 Pro Upgrade? There is no other computer autour who can't use my upgrade, it seems, because I ordered the version of 64-bit operating system, so I guess that laptop must have an operating system 64-bit as well.

    Anytime Upgrade using year already bought Retail Pro/Ultimate key

    In Windows 7 Home Premium, type Anytime Upgrade in search programs and files box on the start menu, and then click the Windows Anytime Upgrade.  From there, you can enter your product key of Windows 7 Professional/ultimate retail and perform a simple upgrade. All programs and files will remain on the computer, there is no drive necessary and it takes about 10 minutes.

  • SimpleTap for thinkpad edge e530

    I just got my Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E530 and downloaded single tap. It does not work when I touch the screen with my fingers. I did some research online and realized that some computers do not have a touch screen. does anyone know if my computer has a touch screen and if so how to solve the simpletap so I was touch my screen with my fingers and make work? Thank you!

    Welcome to the community!

    I believe that the portable only in several Lenovo product lines that have multi touch (pen + finger) screens are Tablet PCs, like the X230T and some of the IdeaPads. If I'm wrong, I'm sure an expert Lenovo is soon be along to correct me, but at this point, I'd say you not 'touch' ability on your edge.

  • ThinkPad Edge E530, camera does not / not found

    Hello

    I can't find my device in Device Manager and there is no imaging device in Device Manager

    There is no camera label within the parameters of Communication (Fn + F5)

    I tried to install

    "Integrated" pilot (1.0 M) camera for Windows 7 (32 bit, 64 bit), XP - laptop computers

    "Integrated" pilot (0. 3 m) camera for Windows 7 (32 bit, 64 bit), XP - laptop computers

    but nothing happened...

    * Initially, when I have quand j' ai installe installed the camera windows worked but now it's not!

    Is my laptop: ThinkPad Edge E530

    My operating system is: Windows 7 32-bot

    Hi, LaithAlwash

    If the camera is turned on in the BIOS, but it is not visible in the Device Manager, then I think that the unit is disconnected from the motherboard of the computer, probably because of a loose wire. This can only be fixed by opening the system and checking the connection. If your system is under warranty, I would recommend taking it to a service center, if possible. Unfortunately, the only service center in Iraq lies in Baghdad, then you may or may not be able to access it. In any case, their information is listed below.

    Technologies of the Iraq - Redington
    Street, Baghdad Iraq Technology Group, University of technology in Oppsite, Al Sinna

    I would like to know if there is another way, that I can help you.

    Online anytime upgrade was probably improved in Windows 8, so you will not be able to download Windows 7 now. However, you can use the upgrade button during the upgrade using the Windows 7 disc.
  • ThinkPad Edge E530 BIOS

    I've updated my (initially Windows 7 equipped) Thinkpad E530 to the latest version of the BIOS version 2.55.

    I also installed Windows 8.1 x 64 on it.

    My question is: can I use the "OS Optimized Defaults" in BIOS or not?

    In the BIOS install descriptions, it is said to use the optimized default OS on a pre-installed Windows 8 (x 64) machine, and to use the ordinary default values on a Windows 7 preinstalled machine.
    But my computer was a machine 7 pre-installed, but is now running Windows 8 x 64. If the default values should I charge?

    Kind regards
    Psycho

    Hello

    Thank you for your reply,

    To use the system with "Default values of the optimized operating system", you have reinstall the Windows 8 operating system after allowing optimized OS default "values. If you change the format of disk partition HARD operating system will not work.

    I hope this helps. Post back if the problem persists!

  • T60p Vista Business to Win 7 Pro (upgrade) on the new SSD

    My T60p 4 years needs an upgrade.  I plan a (Lenovo preload) Vista Business upgrade to Windows 7 Professional (upgrade multimedia).  Since my HD is rather small (80 GB) and getting noisy, I intend to replace it with a 120 GB SSD intel.

    What is the best way to tackle the upgrade?  I guess I could clone the current HD to the SSD then clean install from upgrade disc.  Is there a way to install the SSD disk without involving the current player / OS from the win7 upgrade media?  I intend to reinstall applications once the operating system is installed.

    Also, don't I have to worry about any special partitioning for the T60p?  I haven't yet decided how much of the thinkpad applications I'll install.  I use windows to manage bluetooth and wireless instead of thinkpad apps.  I use the fingerprint through apps thinkpad reader.

    You can directly install windows 7 OS with support for upgrading without having to install Vista (unless you want).

    Follow these instructions:
