• Satellite A200 - Vista Home Premium to ultimate upgrade

  Hi back from the guy with a new query.

  "" I'm looking to upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate... checked the requirements of what is known on the "Windows anytime upgrade" site and I can you there is a lot of conflicting ideas on how its all done up to the fact that I would need a disc to upgrade mailed to me.

  After reading a few other forums recently, the answer lies in what you guys can or perhaps are not able to advise me... and the question is:

  Only the so-called "rescue disk" provided with the purchase, IE the Windows operating system disk... ALL CONTAIN THE ' VISTA "SYSTEMS AVAILABLE..." Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate? and very unlikely, but she coded upgrade or anything like that, as its meant to be to perform upgrades?

  Thanks a lot again in anticipation of your kind comments

  Andrew.

  Firs of all I think you should know that it is a forum for users and to my knowledge, there is no guy from Toshiba which could provide instructions.
  I know, it's, your Toshiba Recovery DVD contains the same Win Vista that was preinstalled on your laptop.
  It seems that you bought this laptop with Vista Home Premium and this operating system should be placed on the recovery media.

  Please DON t mix the Toshiba Recovery DVD with a DVD of new, original and clean Microsoft Vista.
  Toshiba Recovery contains an image include the OS, drivers, tools and additional software.
  It s already active.

  The MS Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista but to use a version of Vista that a right serial key must be inserted.

  Hope I could make a clarification.

• Upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate

  My 32 bit HP came with Vista Home Premium which is updated with SP2.   I'm trying to upgrade to Vista Ultimate, but get this message: could not start the upgrade.  To update, cancel the installation and choose to upgrade to a version of Windows that is newer than the version you are currently using. "The choice of installation custom is available, but I n
  ' t want to lose my Office 2007 files and other programs that I have.  I bought Ultimate on the Microsoft Store and downloaded online.  I tried to use the Windows Anytime Upgrade, but would still pay for the software.  Thanks in advance.

  Uninstall vista SP2 on your computer.

  The Service Pack level on your computer does not have to be communicated more top/more later then the Service Pack to upgrade.

  If the SP1 upgrade, uninstall SP2 from the computer, etc..

  If it is higher on the computer, you must do a clean install, as the upgrade is an earlier version of Vista.

• Upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate - Windows complete PC Backup and Restore

  Dear Madam, dear Sir

  Upgraded my laptop HP DV7 Vista Home Premium to Ultimate, mainly to use Windows complete PC Backup and Restore.

  The restore time and unfortunately no option in the boot menu at startup to restore system from images. No menu advanced etc. I guess starting always remains at the level of the premium and does not provide "Windows complete PC Backup and Restore" restore options.

  Grants menu of system restore points, with only the last good restore point and no option to select point of previous restoration or system image to restore from.

  Mmmm nice ideas...

  Thanks in advance

  Good day

  Hello

  Complete PC Backup is designed for the reinstallation of the operating system that you have backed up.

  You access it to start from a Vista DVD.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/Windows-Vista-complete-PC-Restore/

  To restore a full backup of the computer, you must proceed within the Windows recovery environment. To access the Windows recovery environment, you will need to insert your Vista DVD in the DVD drive on your computer and turn on your computer.

• You want to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 Professional. I ran the Windows Upgrade Advisor, and he told me that I can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium and Ultimate. Why not professional?

  I want to install Windows 7 Professional.  I ran the Windows Upgrade Advisor, and he told me that I can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium and Ultimate. Why not professional? Or is this correct?

  You can still install Windows 7 Pro, but it requires a custom installation. This will remove all your programs (you will need to reinstall them), but you can save your files and settings to external storage before doing so.

  If you want to make a place in the upgrade you will need Home Premium or Ultimate.

• Upgrade to Vista Ultimate does not

  Hello

  I had a vista Home premium pc upgrade to vista Ultimate edition (32-bit) without years number 1 or 2.

  Last week, I had a pc crash and had to reset the PC with the factory settings.  Of course, windows update asked a lot of updates and now I have vista Home premium sp2. But when I want to use the anytime upgrade vista ultimate SP1 dvd, it tells me that the option is no longer possible.

  is it because I already have SP2? Should I go back to SP1 to enable the upgrade option?

  Or am I forced to buy windows 7 ultimate upgrade for an ultimate version?

  It would be really unfair. Once, I bought vista ultimate version, I should be able to have a way to upgrade to vista Ultimate edition, without having to switch to windows 7 just top get the vista ultimate features.

  Thanks for letting me know my options.

  Regis.

  Uninstall SP2.

• Satellite P205-S6257: Chicony USB Webcam does not work after upgrade to Vista Ultimate

  I've upgraded to Vista Ultimate Home and now my Webcam does not work. When I tried to update the driver, I get a message that says that Windows has encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device...

  The installation file forthis training device is missing a necessary entry. Maybe it's because the file INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor.

  I succumbed to find the drivers on the Chicony website. My laptop is a Satellite P205-S6257 and the Toshiba is not yet display on their support site. I don't have a disk for webcam.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  already made an update of the BIOS? It would be useful, maybe it s just because the BIOS does not correctly handle the Ultimate. What drivers did you download?

  It s a bit tricky, but I think that if you reinstall, and then put the drivers on it, it should work. Don't forget: Vista Ultimate needs a lot of resources and a bunch of useless stuff that can cause the machine does not properly.
