Update Win 7 Starter to Home Premium operating system from a hard disk of the laptop with old?

I have a netbook with Win 7 Starter.  I have an old laptop that the motherboard is dead hard disk.  I would like to transfer the Win 7 Home Premium OS from the hard drive of my netbook.  Since I already own the licence of this OS, is it possible to transfer?

If Windows 7 Home Premium came preloaded on the old computer where the motherboard is dead, the answer is no. If the Home Premium license is a retail upgrade or full version, then all you have to do is use the key and product upgrade Starter to Home Premium.

If the Windows 7 Home Premium license you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Home Premium. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option to enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Home Premium, when asked, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium files the stored settings and programs.

  • Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium operating systems disks

    I bought my laptop with Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium installed on it.  I've since upgraded to Windows 7.  Unfortunately, there are a few programs that will not work under Windows 7 little matter what I do.

    So, I would try to run a virtual Windows Vista system.  The problem is that I can't find my disk with the operating system of Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium on it.

    Download the Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium operating system so that I can burn a disc for a back-up or I can order a drive with the OS on it?

    Thank you!

    You can not upgrade to Windows 7, and then use the Vista OS you used as part of the upgrade to install another (even virtual).

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    And Microsoft provide no DVD for computers of the brand OEM (Dell, HP, etc).

    Borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  • If I use the SSD to initiate the operating system and a hard disk of data what exactly will be the benefit of this end?

    Hello

    I would like to know if I use the SSD drive for the operating system boot and a hard drive for data. What will be the benefit of this effect,

    I know that SSDS starts much more quickly and reads and writes data faster.

    When I use the SSD for OS then my only wil advantage so I have faster from the OS, not more than

    but the reading and writing data wil either by the hard drive so I wil not use all the benefits of the SSD, data wil be read and written by hard drive!

    Am I right or wrong?

    Johan

    SSD benefits for most of the time of loading, and it is for all software. If you install Windows on a SSD and return to a HARD drive after a few weeks you will certainly appreciate the value of an SSD, just for the

    only the loading.

    While startup in Windows is the most obvious, the Windows advantage is usually a bit snappier

    on an SSD.

    An SSD expected to also help in many programs such as Photoshop, video editing, the processing speeds

    or CAD, due to data being created during the writing of these programs.

    I think the reads and writes more visible with large files.

    All my programs are on the SSD, but my games are on the HARD disk.

    Games to load a large number of data and will load faster on an SSD, but it's still a few seconds.

    and as games use a lot of Go, it is not really profitable to keep (150 +) on an SSD.

    -J' I keep most of my data, except the music (to save space) in my user folder, but haven't really

    noticed a difference in speed when opening a data file, such as a Word, PDF, images, or similar

    'small' files from the HARD drive.
    -I wouldn't take an SSD less 120 GB. Try to run Windows on a 60GB translate too

    stuffing autour with management of data between the SSD and HDD. In particular, as it should be

    keep 20% an SSD free to allow the two "garbage collection" and deliver a load of

    cells of extra memory to extend the life of the DSS (data gets moved to empty cells when the cells die).

    There is also a noticeable difference between the speeds of SATA2 and SATA 3 controller, so if your motherboard uses the SATA2 more the advantage of an SSD is not as great as with SATA3.

    In addition, the new SATA3 SSD controllers are faster than those of two years ago.

    SSD is a big enough topic. There are many items in the wild that may be useful.
