Recovery discs when it's upgrade in place, but I'm not sure that it will be part of the recovery. I have the original e-mail printed purchase for online upgrade, including the key I will be able to use it again on the same laptop, it was installed on?

  An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.
   
  What happens if I lose my product key?

  www.Windows7.com/GetKey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID.

  The next thing you need to do is to reinstall the base license that you upgraded, Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate.
   
  If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7:
   
  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.
   
   
   
  -Samsung uses ESC on most of its systems
   
  -HP use F9 on most of its systems
   
  -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems
   
  -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

  -Dell uses F12
   
   
   
  In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.
   
   
   
  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.

• Upgrading English W7HP to ultimate with Japanese OEM upgrade disc?

  I live in the Japan and have W7 Home Premium (OEM).

  I want to upgrade to Ultimate, change the language in Japanese and give this computer to my father-in-law.
  Can I use a Japanese OEM (DSP) upgrade disk to do this?

  Thank you

  Just to be clear, I can use a DSP drive until I do a clean install?

  You can install custom with it, Yes.

   

  Or I can use the Express upgrade... until I do a clean install?

  No, you can't.

  The fact that the base OS is English and the upgrade disk would be Japanese is not a problem?

  You will be able to custom installation, but you cannot be upgraded.

• Omni27 1010ea: upgrade from Windows 10 sound problems

  I have a subwoofer and in the sound dialog of windows, I managed to activate the 5.1 surround sound for the left, right, Center and Subwoofer speakers and test successfully.

  When reading - if via youtube or windows media player, Center and subwoofer speakers are knocked out and only audible sound through left and right and levels I previously applied back to 50-50.

  I had everyone working successfully on windows 7 without Beats Audio because it caused the volume to be erratic and I couldn't get a good range of base to use.

  I tried to update the IDT high Definition Audio CODEC driver, who did not. The version of the driver that works is 6.10.6400.0

  Baffled.

  Download and install this free utility for files.  The 2nd listed file is 64-bit.

  Have 7-zip extract of: and let it extract the files in the driver folder (sp59736).

• Qosmio G50-115: how to upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate

  Dear friends,

  I am a teacher in a local college. We decided to buy the Qosmio (device name: G50-115, device number: PQG55E-01J00GEN, product group: QOSMIO) for our Department. We bought two so far for the trial. But my job is now on the sword.

  These laptops are pre-intstalled with Vista Home Premium SP1 and we need to upgrade these to Vista Ultimate. We have a DVD of Windows Vista Ultimate, but it's without SP1 on it. When I run and update, it rejects the upgrade because the installed version is newer than the version I have. Microsoft is no help, they said that you bought...

  Microsoft advised me to uninstall SP1, but I can't do that because there is no option in Control Panel to do this.

  If I install clean I won't lose nice software from Toshiba. I did a recovery disk, but do not think that I will be able to install this software. If I can download all necessary drivers, but I am interested in utilities/software installed at the factory.

  Would you please advise me what to do. Y did he we can get all the software of Qosmio on a DVD for instalation.

  Kind regards

  Dr. Sophie

  You should try to wake SP1 to the drive ultimate because I think that the problem is due the SP1 is already installed, but not on the final drive.

  You can do this with vLite: http://www.vlite.net/.
  With this tool, you can create your own with integrated service packs, patches, driver installation disc and more.

  Try this, it only takes a few minutes.

• Impossible to upgrade to windows vista ultimate from vista home Basic using the upgrade disc

  I bought a disc "to upgrade use only" Windows Vista Ultimate at my University and tried to upgrade my current version of Windows (Vista Home Basic).

  At the stage where I had to select the 'Upgrade' or 'Custom' installation option, I noticed that the interface was telling me, 'Upgrade Disabled"with a message that has been along the line"this version of windows is already installed and cannot be upgraded."
  I know that the upgrade disc was probably intended for the upgrade from an earlier version of Windows like XP, but I assumed that because Microsoft also sells discs "Anytime Upgrade" to do exactly what I'm trying to accomplish this I would have had no problem.
  For any help or suggestion that contact would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you in advance.

  It's all about Service Pack.
  We don't know what you have.

  If Service Packs came pre-installed on the operating system, there is no way to uninstall them.
  You will need to swap the disk to upgrade to a later version that includes the missing Service Pack.

  In this case, your upgrade disk has NO Service Pack installed with it.

  Take it back to the University, if you cannot uninstall SP1 operating system.

• Use and upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate and professional from another country

  As part of a plant from South Africa, India, we have 3 desktop computers loaded with 1No. Windows 7 Ultimate and 2 amendments. Windows 7 professional OS. Can I use these desktop computers with operating system existing in India? Can I use the opportunity for these OS upgrade to WIndows 10 of the India?

  It should not be a problem.  In fact you can be upgraded servers anywhere in the world of.  Just because you are in a given country does not mean that you get the upgrade from there.  Microsoft balance the load on their servers so if in your country is busy other countries will be used

  Good luck

• Main problems after upgrading from XP to Vista on Qosmio F20

  I have recently upgraded from XP to Vista on my Qosmio F20 and having problems. It seems that I lost the ability to change screen resolutions, to adjust the volume, brightness, etc. Basically, I lost the laptop functions. I also tried updating the BIOS but get the following error message "BiOS update only is not supported OS - unsupported OS or service pack installed.»

  This also makes very slow computer.

  You now have a few questions, or you wrote just a report on your experience of Vista on Qosmio F20?

  The fact is that Toshiba does not support Vista on this laptop model and thereby you will ever complete Vista of operation (including the Toshiba tools and utilities). For supported laptops, Toshiba offered special Vista supporting BIOS but for your laptop, this update of the BIOS does not exist.

  Sorry! :(
