• Where can I buy a professional license of 64-bit Windows 7 online

  Hello

  Where can I buy a professional license of 64-bit Windows 7 online?

  I saw this site, but I don't know if that is legitimate:

  http://www.microsoftproductkeys.com/Windows-7-Professional-SP1-p-69.html

  Can someone give me some resources for legit stores I can buy this?

  Thank you

  This web site is not legitimate.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  Full version (retail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.
  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.
  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.
  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.
  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

• Upgrade to Windows 8.1 Professional

  I just ordered a XPS 15 Touch, which has 8.1 Windows 64 - bit English.  I want to upgrade the machine to Windows 8.1 Professional 64 - bit English.  I need to know how to upgrade proeprly.  I have a few questions:

  The upgrade is a safe thing to do?

  Should I get the upgrade or get a Dell technician to do the upgrade?  What do you recommend?

  If I do upgrade myself and you are having problems, can I speak?  Dell or Microsoft?

  The upgrade affects my extended warranty?

  The upgrade is fairly simple and fast, requiring only a reboot.

  Click on start and type "anytime upgrade".  What you need to do is enter your Pro license key, wait a few minutes, then restart.

  It will NOT affect your warranty or existing data.

• Windows 7 Home Basic license number

  I sold a computer to a friend of mine, I bought with Windows 7 Home Basic Edition.

  Not long after I sold the computer, the USB ports on the main panel blew and I sent him to have the motherboard replaced (under warranty) to the supplier (Pinnacle Micro) which replaced the motherboard and I brought a friend.

  Since the Lady does not use the computer often I only learned later that the machine now has the following license number:

• Type of Windows Server

  Dear experts,

  I have a questions about Windows Server.

  I saw in Internet tutorial on Windows Server.

  I saw that there are just 4 types of Windows servers as:

  1 - Windows Server 2012 standard Core

  2-Windows Server 2012

  3-Windows Server 2012 Datacenter Core

  4-Windows Server 2012 Data Center

  Could someone please tell me what is the differently among them?

  If we just administrator, what version where should we go?

  Please give me detail of each clear.

  Next to Windows Server above, Microsoft Will have another Windows Server?

• Is that the compress/decompresss utility file supported by all types of window OS? or for some region the user install it?

  Hi all:

  Is the Compress/decompress utility file supported by all types of Windows OS (XP, VISTA, Windows 7)? or for some region the user install it?

  Any link from the website of Microsoft?

  I managed to get the guide from the Microsoft web site, but just a guide without a show of declaration of default installation during installation of the operating system.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Compress and decompress are not a separate tool/utility to download and install in the computer. They have functions that come with these 3 operating systems. These features are available in Windows XP/Vista/7 from across operating systems.

  However, you can also use your favorite search engine for non-Microsoft applications to compress and extract files such as Winzip and Winrar.

  Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  It will be useful.

• DOUBLE OS ►Windows 7.0 Professional (retail) + XP Professional (retail)

  I just bought Windows 7.0 Professional (retail) and also have Windows XP Professional (also retail).

  I realize there is an option 'XP Mode' 7.0, but what I would do is have the ability to access the OS.  I build my own computers but I have never installed two operating systems and need some advice on partitions, boot etc. options.  For example, is it possible that I can start in 7.0 and switch to XP without having to reboot?

  I reached the minimum requirements (CPU = 2.9 GHz, RAM = 6 GB) and the drive I'll install is a 80 GB Sata.

  Thanks for the suggestions, links, tutorials etc.

• Is my Windows my product key license? Also, if I want to download the iso of Windows 7 yes I need to buy a license/product key of Windows 7?

  Is my Windows my product key license? Also, if I want to download the iso of Windows 7 yes I need to buy a license/product key of Windows 7? Or my Windows 10 will work?

  Your license is the product key.

  You don't need to buy a license if you already have a product key.

  Step 1: Download a copy of Windows 7:

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?
