• Upgrade XP to Windows 7 Professional and Vista upgrade to Windows 7 family of versions for a family network.

  We have two computers on a home network: I had built in 2008 with Windows XP and then I bought a HP on shelf with Vista for my children.  I connected them together; the XP pc is connected to the ADSL and the Vista pc gets access to the internet through the network as well as access to a wireless network laser printer.  I'm looking to upgrade to Windows 7.  I would like my own upgrade to Windows 7 Professional for my XP programs, etc. are always usable/accessible.  What I need to upgrade the computer Vista business, too, or can I just switch to the Home version, while keeping our network?

  You will need to buy two separate editions of Windows 7. You'll have to do a custom installation of Windows XP without worrying, there is no way to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7.

  According to the edition of Windows Vista you have, you can do an upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7.

  The upgrade to Windows XP?

  Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

  Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

  More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

  1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

  2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

  3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

  4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

  5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

  If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  The upgrade of Windows Vista?

  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

• Can I use an existing Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD for Windows 7 Professional upgrade using the keys I bought instead of loading down?

  I've updated three of my computers from Windows XP Professional for Window 7 Professional using kits of DVD I bought. I have three sets of Window 7 professional DVD in my possession. I bought a new license [facility provided by Microsoft key] for my ThinkPad. I ordered also accompanying the DVD, which I imagine will happen next week. Rather than wait for the DVD, can I use one of my existing 32 Bit Windows DVD for installation to upgrade with the new license key that I got from Microsoft?

  No problem - but you might want to wait, if your existing DVD is the original version, because a new will have SP1 integrated, so it'll even some hassles :)

• Upgrade to Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 32/64-bit (English) (work at home)

  I recently built a computer and require a BONE, I'm a student and found an agreement here---> http://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/OfferingsOfMajorVersionList.aspx?pmv=b01abaf7-4588-de11-8cd1-0030487d8897&&ws=46106921-d5f4-e011-8e6c-f04da23e67f6&vsro=8. It says upgrade so im wondering if it will give me windows or do I need something else... Help?

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  You must purchase a license of full version.

  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.

• Upgrades students of Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate edition

  Hello

  I am a student of the University. I bought an upgrade of students student Windows 7 (64 bit) last year at the campus bookstore and used on my desk. I have a laptop that I would switch to win7 but noticed that these improvements are only allowed on a single computer at a time. While watching on the website of my campus, I saw that they also offered Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) for download free valid student ID information (via E-academy).  After all by filling and by accepting the agreement, that gave me access to a download and a product key for Win7 Prof. before installation, I reread the agreement (just-in-case) and saw do this:

  «Licensor grants students the right to run one copy of the version number and language of software identified below which student has installed on the PC of the student by the rights granted to the students by the Institution under Campus subscription program.»

  When he says "...". one copy the version number... "means collective product line of Windows 7 (as in home, professional, Ultimate etc.)? I violate the program making subscription? I saw the above agreement and am now very nervous about all this. Should I be? I did not violate anything? I do not have the Professional on the laptop and so was not used the product key.

  Your OK, not to worry. You have separate editions (version number) and product keys if this isn't a problem.

  Hi JimNorman,

  Make sure that you upgrade to the correct version, some versions of Windows cannot be upgraded with the installation disc you are trying to use. For example, you cannot upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version, or upgrade a higher edition of Windows like Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, to a lower edition, such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. If this is the case, you will need to use the custom during installation option.

  Before you attempt to upgrade, please run the Windows 7 upgrade Advisor:

• Upgrading to Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000 Professional

  Can I upgrade my current Windows 2000 Professional to Windows XP Professional? Is upgraded to Windows XP Professional license still available on the market?

  Windows XP is no longer available on the market.

• XP Professional x 64 Edition for Windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade. The best way?

  Hi you all, experts,

  I want to spend my edition of Windows XP Professional x 64 (legit) to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I don't think I need additional options in 'Ultimate', but I need, I am sure, XP mode that comes with "7 Professional".

  Maybe I should mention at this point that I am a member of the program saved Reacondicionador, until you feel that I was fully authorized to "renovate" my own PC.

  First of all a question about Windows 7 itself: -.

  As I said, I need to be able to run certain programs that have been written for XP. The expression "run several Windows XP programs in Windows XP Mode (separate download) company" in "features" means that I have to pay extra for this option? If Yes, how and where to go?

  Is there a reason why my 2D design program which works perfectly under XP Pro x 64 (WOW64) should not be running in the above "Windows XP Mode"?

  Furthermore, I believe that I have several choices on how how to get 'XP' ' 7'.

  1) "OEM", the less expensive but, I understand, once installed on a clean hard disk only, that is all. End, end of story! What should I do if my motherboard fails and needs to be replaced? Can I get a replacement license or I have to buy an another OEM?

  2) 'Upgrade' which I believe will overwrite an existing operating system (matter if it's XP or Vista?) and install "Windows 7". Here are all my existing files maintained? If this is not the case, can I 'restore' to a 'Backup' created by XP?

  3) "Retail", the more expensive but, I understand that, can be transferred or installed on a PC refurbished, although it is only has a license valid on a PC at the same time. Is there a difference between "Retail" and "Upgrade"? Can I use one over the other? If so, why? Is there a difference?

  4) authentic software. Is it possible that I can know without having the product in my hands, or installed on my system, whether or not an article supposed to be "Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64 bit" is actually authentic. Is there a relevant question, can I ask which would identify a fake before I part with my money?

  Thanks in advance for any help you are able to offer.

  No, Windows Virtual PC with Windows XP Mode is free for users of Windows 7 Professional. To learn more:

  Is there a reason why my 2D design program which works perfectly under XP Pro x 64 (WOW64) should not be running in the above "Windows XP Mode"?

  Personally, I've used several graphic programs 2D and 3D even on Windows XP Mode, include The Print Shop, PhotoDraw 2000 v2 and they work very well to this topic. The article I linked to provide instructions how to publish your applications, you can use alongside Windows 7 applications.

  Furthermore, I believe that I have several choices on how how to get 'XP' ' 7'.

  1) "OEM", the less expensive but, I understand, once installed on a clean hard disk only, that is all. End, end of story! What should I do if my motherboard fails and needs to be replaced? Can I get a replacement license or I have to buy an another OEM?

  No, you will need to purchase a new license if your Windows 7 OEM System Builder License fails. You could of course try install and reactivate the components on the new motherboard before buying a new license, because some people have been 'lucky' get it reactive but is is not a guarantee. If the motherboard is replaced based on a defect or warranty, you should be able to reactivate the replacement motherboard.

  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

• The upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional on a Netbook

  I recently bought a Dell Mini 1012 and I think to upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional. I have the code key for Windows 7 Professional from MSDNAA or something like that. My question is, if I upgrade Windows 7 Starter to professional, I should install the new drivers for the netbook or those already installed for Starter would work with professional? I would use Windows Anytime Upgrade.

  Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Starter share the same driver model because its the same code base, so you shouldn't have to get new drivers.

  If the license for Windows 7 Professional, you have access to is a retail version upgrading or complete (MSDNAA License are), you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional. Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, follow the on-screen Wizard, enter the key to Windows 7 Professional on demand, click on, and then restart your computer when you are prompted. Less than 10 minutes, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional and your files and settings retained.

• Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 Home System Builder

  Hello

  If I buy Windows 7 Home premium system builder version I'll be able to upgrade to windows 7 Professional?

  In essence, this:
  http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16832116986

  To do this:
  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/PD/ProductID.216644200/flyout.true

  It will be a problem or it is not still possible?

  I also read soemwhere that if you change any hardware on your computer, the operating system will say that the license becomes invalid, is this true?

  Yes, you will be able to use a full or upgrade version license retail or upgrade Express (Windows 7 Professional) to upgrade Express of Windows 7 Home Premium (OEM System Builder).

  If you make significant changes to the computer such as changing your motherboard, this would automatically cancel the OEM Windows 7 Home Premium, in addition to the upgrade version of Windows 7 Professional. Which means, if you do not want to make significant changes to your computer in the future, you will need to purchase a full version of Windows 7 Professional.

• Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 repair downgrade to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit without uninstalling SP1

  Hello

  I have a huge problem with the update of Windows-7. Installing and uninstalling any update of Windows-7-related (including SP1) fails. She always ends up in a loop configuration and restart + roll back. The error code in the Windows journal file is 0x80070BC9 for all updates. In addition, even when not install or uninstall anything, the system will enter into this every second reboot loop however and trying to set up the most recent update (failure).

  I tried different ways to solve these problems, but all do not work, including the Fix It, KB947821 tools, and the procedure described here:

  https://social.technet.Microsoft.com/forums/Windows/en-us/b2727a81-BADC-4AD3-a9e2-336dc1bcaab1/Windows-Update-error-0x80070bc9-with-Windows-7

  The solution described in the above link does not work because I can't delete the files in the System32\confix\TxR folder that I am supposed to do, even using unlocking of third-party tools (Unlocker 1.9.1), which is actually very weired.

  So my last hope is to do a repair of upgrade (see the title). Unfortunately, Microsoft only allows me to do until SP1 is installed. Given that the uninstallation of SP1 will not work, I wonder if there is a way by fooling Windows suggests that SP1 is not installed by editing the registry. Can someone tell me if and how this is possible? I tried to change the registry in the files Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion and Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion and Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion and Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion to Windows 7 family Basique/Premium SP1 (which probably should allow to upgrade me to Windows 7 Professional), but still the Windows recognize that my system is Windows 7 Professional.

  Well, I really hope you can help me.

  Best regards

  Thomas

  Your best bet is to clean just install and start over.
