• Upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium Enterprise?

  I think my laptop at home has Windows Vista Business edition (I'll have to double check when I get home). I was wondering if I could buy the upgrade from Vista business to Windows 7 Home Premium edition. I don't need all the stuff that comes with Windows 7 Professional, but I don't know if I am limited to just Windows 7 professional since I'm upgrading to Vista professional. Windows 7 Home Edition Premium is a notch down from Windows 7 Professional, so I was wondering if it is possible to do. Or I'm stuck after you buy the full version of Windows 7 Home Premium for the SB $ 199.99 upgrade $ 119.99.

  Then I can buy just the Microsoft® Windows® 7 Home Premium, Version upgrade and just do a custom installation? The instructions are fairly easy to follow? The only upgrade I've ever done is when I got my laptop from XP to Vista, (it came with XP installed and they gave me a CD to upgrade to Vista if I wanted to).

  Yes, its simple, simply start your desktop of Windows Vista professional, insert the Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade DVD, click install now. When the menu appears, select custom (advanced option) to a clean install procedure.

• Program compatibility tells that my system was OK to upgrade Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium. During installation, I received the prompt "uninstall PC-Cillin" in order to move forward.

  It's a Vista Home premium OS.
  32-bit system
  very simple installation used for business
  There is no trace of PC_Cillin in the computer that I can find.
  Revo uninstaller tried and not found.
  ' Start diagnosis with the same result.
  Noted the old PC-Cillin software.

  A good bet to find a 'install hung' is this app.

• Change operating system from Vista to Windows XP Home on my Satellite A200

  I want to change my OS from Vista to Windows XP Home on my Satellite A200... once I downloaded the complete drivers compatible with XP I updated my version of BIOS to be compatible, then when I started the formatting procedure I've countered a problem when I want to choose the format of the hard drive... which is "no hard drive drivers were found.

  If anyone can help please :) Thank you.

  Hello

  The problem is that you must install the SATA driver (among others) in the XP operating system!
  You will use the FDD USB external (floppy) drive or you will create a new Win XP CD using the freeware tool called nLite (google for nLite get details).

  In addition, after the installation of the SATA driver you shouldn't t format the HARD drive because it would wipe out the SATA driver and the HARD drive will not be recognized!

  Best regards

• TS-l663b cd/dvd "device cannot start code 10" after uppgrade from vista to windows 7 home

  Compaq CQ60-216DX

  Hi, I've updated from Vista to Windows 7 Home, and now the CD player is missing and displays an error code "10" DEVICE cannot NOT START, under Device Manager.

  Looked for the drivers updated on the HP Support, there is none for CD player.

  Cannot back driver, grayed out.

  Restore opportunity to go back 2 months and still no progress. Installed software recently withdrawn from the HP (C5280) printer as well.

  Immediately after the upgrade, the CD player worked fine. Same load of music in iTunes.

  I am at a loss. Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Although the tool automated fix - It did not tour, the link you provided, was told in the right direction.

  It seems that it is a well known problem of incompatibility between the TS-L663B with the Windows 7 upgrade.

  I just had to read the Let Me Fix It Myself solution because that relates to Windows7 and change the registry.

  Thanks again,

• I need to activate my windows 7 Home premium and when I look at the bottom of my computer product key essentially disappeared... What can I do to get my product key?

  I need to activate my windows 7 Home premium and when I look at the bottom of my computer product key essentially disappeared... What can I do to get my product key?

  Option 1: You will need to invest in a new license.

  Option 2: If your computer comes with a recovery partition, use to reinstall Windows 7, it will exempt the need to have a product key.

  Option 3. Ask a recovery disk set from the manufacturer of your computer and use it to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to have a product key too.

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  ------------------------------------

  This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

• The benefits of the Windows 7 Home Premium to Professional Upgrade will be lost to the new Windows 8 Upgrade?

  I ordered the 7 Home Premium to Professional Upgrade when I ordered my new HP computer, I picked up today. (for which I paid $65,00)
  It also suggested me the upgrade of Windows 8 when it comes out @ 15.00.
  If I lose all the benefits of the first upgrade to install Windows 8, I want to go back to the first upgrade unopened.
  They allow only a few days to do this.
  Thanks for your help

  The base provided with your computer (Windows 7 Home Premium) license will already be a license of qualification. An Express (Windows 7 Home Premium to professional) upgrade may not be an eligible license because its an upgrade. To use the Windows Pro 8 upgrade, the base provided with the computer license will be it.

  So, Yes, you could return the Anytime Upgrade If you wish.

• Upgrade from Vista Ultimate 32 bit to Windows 7 Home Premium

  I'm running a GM 5424 Gateway System I bought with Vista 32 Ultimate on it.    A year ago I bought the dvd of Windows 7 Home Premium at Wal-Mart.    Can I do a upgrade in place without having to reinstall all my programs application?   I understand the Win 7 Upgrade advisor a few programs may not be compatible and is not a problem.

  I was wondering if the upgrade in place is available for this combination or to I need to do a clean install (which I am dreading because it means at least a week of work to re - install everything what I really need.)     Whether it is a new installation or an upgrade in place, I also know that I have several days of Windows updates for Windows 7 until the current patch level, since the OEM Win/7 disc includes only through SP 1.    I have other computers (laptops) running Windows 7 and 8 to win.

  My PC has a 500 GB drive and I've upgraded to 8 GB of memory in a couple of years (I realize the 32 bit OS does not use everything), but I want to go to the 64-bit version of Win/7 since my CPU and hardware will support it.   I've already replaced my NIC with a compatible card Win/7.

  I already intend to have at least 2 backups made to two different USB 1 terabyte disk drives and also will have all of my data backed up online via BackBlaze.

  Please notify.  Thanks in advance!

  Yes, no problem, as long as you stick with 32-bit Windows. And almost
  all the programs will be compatible.

  or that I must do a clean install (which I am dreading because it means at least a week of work to re - install everything what I really need.)

  but I want to go to the 64-bit version of Win/7 because my processor and hardware will support it.

  However, it is not possible to change the number of 'bits' of Windows, of
  32-bit to 64-bit or vice versa. The only way to get there is what you
  Dread - a new installation.

  Another point: Windows 7 is now two generations old. As far as I am
  concerned, she brings more much sense to upgrade to a young person of these
  Version. I recommend going to 10 Windows instead.
