Hello

No, there is not.

You buy Windows 10, as there is no free upgrade to 7, 8, 8.1, or 10 Vista.

https://www.Yahoo.com/tech/s/Microsoft-just-confirmed-Windows-10-pricing-everything-know-114542550.html

Microsoft on Monday said CNET Windows 10 will cost just as much as its predecessor. This means price for Windows 10 will run anywhere from $110 for Windows 10 Home package at $199 for Windows 10 Pro edition. In addition a Pack Pro 10 will allow users upgrade Home Pro for $99.

But first make sure that you have the correct configuration and your computer manufacturer provides the right drivers for 10.

  • I have Windows XP Pro. Can I upgrade to Windows 7 without having to first install Vista?

    I have Windows XP Pro. and lose the connection with my printer (HP Officejet 6500 and I was told that I had to upgrade to Windows 7) Can I upgrade to Windows 7 without having to first install Vista?

    You can - clean installation however.  No direct path from Windows XP to Windows 7.

    If the machine is old, but - I wouldn't bother.  You will end up by it hate because it is slow and probably blame the operating system.

    The upgrade to Windows 7 is not a solution for the loss of connectivity to a printer - not a logic.

    Is what SPECIFIC printer this?

    HP Officejet 6500 All - in - One Printer series - E709

    If you download and install the latest appropriate WIndows XP complete software driver for your printer and maybe upgrade the firmware of the printer itself-, it would probably solve your problem.  If you use it as a wireless printer (it is printed through your network, but not connected by a cable [ethernet]) so you can check for updgrades to the firmware of your router (level) and reconfigure your network completely wireless if you start with a good foundation.

    32-bit to 64-bit is NOT an upgrade path.

    It must be done with a clean installation using a Vista FULL 64-bit disk/license.

    Buy a version of disk/license FULL Vista 64 bits of your local computer, or online store: amazon, newegg, etc.

  • 'Upgrade' from Vista to Windows 7 without a clean install

    Is it possible to upgrade from Vista Home Premium 64-bit for Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I searched through the forums and most of the responses seem to confuse "upgrade" with "clean install". I bought the Windows 7 upgrade in order to keep all of my existing programs and settings in place not re - install everything from the beginning.

    Is it possible to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7? If this isn't the case, then I don't see how Microsoft can claim to offer a "upgrade path". I don't think a "clean install" is the generally accepted definition of an upgrade.

    It is NOT possible!

  • Pavilion dv6500: upgrade Windows Vista (32 bit) to Windows 7 (32 bit) or install for Windows 7 (64-bit)

    Do you have a recommendation about knowing it would be preferable to upgrade Windows Vista (32) to Win 7 (32), or make a new installation for Win 7 (64).  Laptop has currently 4 GB of RAM installed.  Should I wait for an improvement of the notable performance with the additional hassle to install Win 7 (64)?  I guess I have to pay money to Ms. be it (?)

  • The upgrade to windows 7 without the HP Windows 7 program

    Hello

    I think the upgrade of my HP pavilion with windows vista laptop Windows 7 but missed on the upgrade program. I would like to know if the programs that came pre-installed on my laptop as Cyberlink DVD Suite Deluxe, microsoft Works Manager and recovery would still be there after a clean install or can I download these programs at HP and if so could you give me a link. I would also like to know if I can make the disc bootable recovery for windows 7. I would also like to know how to get the software/programs and drivers for windows 7 for my laptop and the best way to install windows 7 without programs to upgrade windows 7 HP.

    Thanks for the reply. I wandered just so I can get a download to a compatible HP Recovery Manager on Windows 7

    I don't believe that you can. The Recovery Manager which comes with a HP installed W7 is supposed to work with some serious W7 DVD's, not Vista. You can try it, but I don't think it will work. If so, that's fine.

    Here is a link of Cheryl to download some third-party programs that will create recovery discs. Then you won't need the Recovery Manager:

     

     http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/operating-systems-and-software/copying-a-recovery-disc/m-p/249208#M35802

      

    This is the last post from Cheryl.

    and also, I would like to know if the recovery partition is still there after cleaning installed

    If you choose not to delete the Vista recovery partition, it will always be there, but the once you have created your recovery DVD of Vista, you no longer have any in any way. Some people have kept and tried to make it active all in W7 and it did not work. This is because it is designed to work with Vista. I got rid of all the baggage of Vista when I did my installation on my HDX.  It provides a clean slate to work from. Vista recovery disk you did is bootable DVD and does not require the present recovery Vista Manager or partition.

    When you read the tutorial that said you that you will create "unallocated space" it erases the hard drive nice and clean so there is no more contradictory left applications for Vista. I deleted the entire disc and left nothing of Vista, including the Vista recovery partition.

    and if I use my vista recovery disks can I still go back to windows 7 using the installation disc or if I have to buy windows 7 again.

    You can use the Windows installation disc as many times as you want. as long as it's on this machine. If you go back to Vista just put the W7 disk in and try again. If you follow this tutorial of Cheryl and my instructions, you shouldn't have any problems. Here's a useful tip. During the installation of W7 you will be asked to enter your product number and activate it online.

    Choose not to: use it as a 30 day trial and when you are satisfied that everything is up and running then you can activate it on your own, as long as it is in this 30 day window.

    Just to point out, you can use the disk on any machine for a 30 day trial. If you have a friend who wants to try W7 you can lend him the disc. They will have no choice, but to use it as a trial because you have the only key to product. The product is on the box plastic and not anywhere on the installation disc. The drive is useless with a legitimate product key.

    After 30 days, Microsoft will lock them out of their computer if they do not enter a key.

    P.S. I don't have the HP Windows 7 Upgrade option. I'll buy Windows 7 in my computer store

    When you buy your drive of W7 make sure and get the upgrade because it is cheaper. It will allow you to perform a new installation you have a Vista OS works.

    The only time where you need to purchase a full version is if you install on a computer with no previous operating system on the hard drive.

    Tip: After loading of the W7 the first driver you want to install is for the video card (NVIDIA I think) you'll find out why.

  • Is it possible to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7 without loss of programs or DATA.

    Windows 7 upgrade

    Running WIN XP and you want to upgrade to Windows 7, but the only way is to do a clean install, however you can do an upgrade to Vista XP and then upgrade to Windows 7? I don't want to really not resettled devices and software. Thank you

    I have not yet tried, but yes, that would be the way to do it. Make sure your XP system is up to date and works as it should without any problem (never a good idea to upgrade if there are problems, which is just one question for the real problems).
    You will also need to make sure that there are some Win7 drivers for the hardware you have. You can go out with Vista drivers on some things, but probably not on everything.

    And before critics jump to say that you should NEVER update, always do a clean install, I must add that I did upgrades from any version of Windows from Win3.1, and the only time that I had a problem was from ME to XP. And who made no difference on how I did it because the problem was with the third IDE driver that was not under XP in any case. Suffice it to say "... :-)
