  I want to upgrade Vista Home premium to Vista Ultimate on Toshiba Qosmio F50-114 affect this on my hardware or my other software?
  I use the 32-bit system and 4 GB of RAM expandable up to 8 GB.

  Hello

  As much as I know that this will not affect the material, but I read in some discussions that the Ultimate version is not fully compatible, or could not be fully compatible with some tools from Toshiba as added Vista package.

  I m not very well if it could be a deal on your Qosmio F50-114, but everything is possible.

• 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.

  See you soon.

• 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.

• Cannot upgrade Vista Home Premium Vista Ultimate 64-bit

  I have a computer with an OEM Vista Home Premium 64-bit version installed. I bought Vista Ultimate Upgrade 64-bit and when I try to upgrade instead of clean install I not give me the option to upgrade. Instead, I can install a clean install and lose all programs, settings, I have on my system that has taken a lot of time.  Why the copy I bought directly from the microsoft.com site does not my upgrade, even if it is the version upgrade of Vista? I want to be able to do things such as distance to this computer and the Premium version does not allow me.

  Thank you for all the advice and help.

  Make sure that you do not have 64-bit installed.

  On your installed operating system Service Pack level cannot be greater than what is on the disk to upgrade.

• 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.

• Re: upgrade from home premium to Ultimate

  I bought my laptop with Win Vista Home Premium P300-156. This system will not switch to Ultimate Polish.
  What I have to do, with ho I need to contact Toshiba to send me Windows Vista Ultimate?

  You can upgrade your operating system, but Toshiba has nothing to do with it. Buy this laptop you bought the license for Vista Home Premium. If you want to have Ultimate you must purchase by Microsoft valid activation key.

• Vista Home Premium to ultimate problem, after reloading the system. Error message: the upgrade cannot be started. To upgrade, cancel Setup, and then choose to upgrade to a version of Windows...

  I recently had my computer HP reloaded due to hardware failure by Fry technicians.  They have reloaded it back to Home Premium, due to the fact that the initial charge.  I had already updated using a copy legal DVD Ultimate.  Now when I try to update it gives me the message above.  ALSO, when I check the GUI HP, it says my warranty expired 5/02 - OMG, I bought the computer 2/2007.  At they recharge an OLD picture or something?  HOW to solve this upgrade to Ultimate.  I don't want to throw away $150.

  You've never given the full error message.

  So, we have to guess that it is she:

• Can I upgrade Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate using a version FULL of Vista Ultimate?

  I am running 32-bit Vista Edition Home Premium and I have a brother who has the 32-bit version Vista Ultimate FULL with key he never wanted or used.
  My question is: can I put mine to ultimate using this version and it wouldn't be an upgrade or I do a clean install?
  Thank you
  Rich

  If this is a good DVD of Vista from Microsoft, will give you the Option to upgrade.

  You start him, you do an upgrade of a race and a Vista version active.

  Just watch out for the Service Pack levels, which have fixed before upgrade Option appears:
