Upgrade Vista Capable of laptop on moduslink website?

I bought the Toshiba laptop with the Comet, but cannot find a way to update my Windows, even if she is signed under Windows Vista Capable. The laptop was bought at the right time, eligible for the update, but store only did me not any form of redemption or it is not on the https://upgradeweb.moduslink.com/vista. ModusLink has sent me to OEM. How can I put then? Is there another way to do it?

Which laptop model you have? You can also post model number? It's something like PAxxxx.

Furthermore, one of my friends bought its Satellite A100 end of January and there are labels on the Vista upgrade program. Is also the same label on your laptop?

    Hello

    If you use the Vista licence as part of the upgrade to Windows 7 you cannot use the license of Vista anywhere elsewhere

    It is part of the upgrade process

    and also read this on licensing rules;

    If Windows was preinstalled on your computer, Dell, HP, etc., or you bought an OEM/license disk, they are both classified as an OEM license and are not transferable.

    The Windows OEM license is linked to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
    You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

    If a retail Windows license, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
    But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.

    A single license is a single Installation.

  • The Vista Capable upgrade is free?

    Hello, guys. happy new year :)

    I was given an old laptop Sony Vaio with the logo "designed for Windows XP/Windows Vista Capable." The vehicle currently has 2 GB of RAM and the OEM XP Home is authentic.

    The former owner stayed with XP, but I need to upgrade to Vista because my applications do not support XP. I can't currently afford paid upgrades to 7/8.

    When I inserted DVD a friend Windows Vista Home Premium to XP, he refused the product key, written in the COA on the PC sticker. The COA is genuine with XP.

    So, am I eligible for Vista Home Premium or Basic?
    And how can I get a valid PK for the upgrade?

    P.S. I read a lot of contradictory statements on this subject, on Microsoft / OEM/Blogs/Forums various websites.
    Some say I must ask a PK on the MS site, which is impossible. Others say that I need a DVD of the OEM upgrade. Yet others that I need to buy a boxed version of Vista, which is stupid, because many said getting the free upgrade.

    I hope that someone knowledgeable enough Microsoft can erase this.

    Happy new year 2013!

    Hello

    Welcome to the community forums of Microsoft and thanks for posting the question. According to the description, you need to know if you can upgrade to Windows vista Windows XP for free. Please answer a few questions to refine the question.

    1. which product key you use to upgrade to Windows vista? You use the current Windows Vista product key?

    2. have you received a product key upgrade to Windows vista when the purchasal?

    The product key you enter can be used only for Windows XP. You must have a valid key for update for Windows Vista. If you do not have an upgrade license key provided by the manufacturer, you might not have to upgrade the operating system.

    You can contact Sony Vaio to check if you are available for the upgrade offer.

    Reference:

    Alternatively, you can contact Microsoft to check the license and upgrade installation:

  • Upgrade Vista of Moduslink

    I thought some of you would like to know that I have received confirmation of Moduslink that my "free" upgrade Vista is delivered within 4 to 6 weeks.

    The order was placed on 2 February 2007, so if I get the time limits, the order will take 12 weeks to fill!

    Also, if I do not receive the upgrade by May 1, 2007, I have to communicate with them. (watch this space) and don't hold your bandwidth!

    A shame IMHO - Microsoft agent for this upgrade leaves much to be desired!

    Hi John

    Please don't be crazy on me, but why put you it all on the Toshiba support forum?
    For Vista any upgrade program is responsible for company Moduslink. If you're angry try to clarify all this with them.

  • How can I upgrade Vista 32 bit to Vista 64 bit on a Sony laptop?

    Hi there; Please tell me how I can upgrade Vista 32 Bit to 64 bit Vista on a Sony laptop?
    Without having to install a new 64-bit version and then I lose my Sony laptop platform,.

    that would prevent me from making the web.

    (I like to keep all my installed Sony devices & drivers more bits & bats).
    The disc tells me that the upgrade function is grayed out and pass through the windows!

    But does that mean?

    Peut-there please help me someone?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    There is no way to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit; they are different operating systems.

    It must be done with a new installation of the 64-bit operating system.

    First thing to do is to check with Sony to see if 64-bit drivers are available for your machine:

  • Difficult problem upgrading Vista/Windows 7 for anyone who dares to try to help me to solve it. PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND THIS!

    My computer is a few years old, but has always been a good thing. I have a Gateway P6831FX laptop. It came with Vista pre-installed, but also many devices hardware upgrade card high quality graphics, monitor, sound system, etc. because it was built for the high-quality games.  Unfortunately, my OS system crashed and the computer did not come with recovery discs (gateway said that I should order the discs on their part and that I had to pay for them. Which shocked me because when I bought the computer I paid for a license to the BONE so you would think they would send the recovery discs I free).  However, I recently bought a disc to upgrade to windows 7 because I was planning on upgrading my system before it crashed.  So with a computer, I couldn't use, I thought that I had nothing to lose and I decided to try to load my system windows 7 on the computer.  I put the disc in the drive and load windows 7 with no problems at all.  I don't know if I've checked all the right boxes when he asked all sorts of questions, but my big computer worked when I was tired.  I had to go online and download the driver for the webcam to webcam would work once again and I lost all programs preloaded but other than that everything seems to work fine.  But then all of a sudden the sound no longer works.  I turned off the computer and turn it back on and the sound was back on.  But a few hours later, the noise stopped working again and it keeps going.  It is when I reboot it, but it is becoming a chore.  I decided that I would try to fix it and I went into the Device Manager and I discovered something to worry about. All original equipment upgraded in the computer is no longer registered.  All that was there was listed as generic devices Microsoft and number of manufacturer information and model said: not available. The monitor, for example, is listed as 'No generic PnP Monitor'.  Everything updated, so that I paid extra watch now simply known as generic peripheral windows (with a date of installation date that I loaded windows 7).

    Is there anyway to retrieve the updated materials and programs without having to order and pay for the vista recovery discs?  If I have to, I'll have to erase windows 7 then reload vista with recovery disks and then reload again the upgrade to windows 7?  However, one thing that baffles me is that when I pull my hard drive it shows that I have 2 here.  It shows 1 Partition (C) and (D) recovery so I think that my original vista system with the hardware upgraded and programs is still in my computer somewhere in the recovery disc (D) but I can not understand how to access and I tried.  And if for some reason any I can never access or recover, I would like at least to remove it because it takes up a ton of space on my hard drive.  If anyone can understand what I'm trying to say here, that's where somehow you can help me understand cela stuff?  Thank you for your time.

    Hello

    Gateway put a recovery Partition on your hard disk to reinstall Vista from rather than providing records.

    It's the way it's done now and you are also supposed to make recovery disc from it, that you can not do until you reinstall Vista now.

    If the recovery Partition: D still works, we do not know as you have installation, etc. on this laptop.

    You need to try.

    Reinstall Vista > and then upgrade to Windows 7.

    Here is the information on the bridge for learn you more about reinstalling Vista.

    Full factory for the gateway restore, which you will always be able to use...

    https://support.gateway.com/s/software/Microsof/Vista/7515418/7515418su531.shtml

    And once you reinstall Vista you go to the site of the bridge or from the hardware manufacturer (that you upgraded material initially) Support Web site > download drivers and software Section > equip your laptop model number or the hardware and operating system > and download the latest drivers for the notebook hardware.

    http://support.gateway.com/product/?cmpid=supportnav

    And also when Windows 7 is installed then you will need to go to this same site gateway or the hardware manufacturer (that you upgraded material initially) and download the latest Windows 7 drivers for it also.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    If the recovery partition is damaged ask gateway if they provide the disc of recovery for you.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
