Upgrading a D150 for Windows 7

I am new to the Board of Directors and apologize if this has been answered, but I couldn't find a search function in the forums.

I have a netbook AOD 150, with a P3 1.6 processor and 1 GB of ram, windows XP running. I thought an attempt to upgrade to Windows 7 (32 bit) and I was wondering if someone had done successfully, and if so, what tips and tricks could offer you?

Thank you

I did the implementation level, and here is my experience.

The machine had already been brought to 2 GB of ram.

I've updated the bios for more later.

Installed windows 7 32-bit Professional via a USB key.

Installation went well.

A run all windows updates (time consuming, but basically the machine does the job and I checked from time to time)

Machine works and I have not had any problems with the drivers. He will never win a prize for speed, but it wouldn't be under XP.

Responsible for a number of programs and everything works well.

Video Skype, WiFi is a bit stuttery (think old Japanese Sci Fi Movies), but the audio portion is perfectly crisp and clear.

So far, the only program that does not work well is Chrome, but Internet Explorer is fine.

In fact, I found myself with the machine I was hoping.

  • Upgrades of license for Windows XP, Vista, 7

    I try to help someone who has a network of field and some problems.  I discovered that computers who have problems the more welcome editions of Microsoft Windows.  I would like to join these computers to the domain, I know cannot be done with the Home editions.  XP Home Edition computers do not have enough material to run Windows 7.  Replace computers is not an option.

    There are:

    2 - Windows XP Home Edition computers I want to upgrade to Windows XP Pro.

    1 - Windows Vista Home computers I want to upgrade to Vista Business.

    4 - Windows 7 family computers I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro

    Should what license I buy?

    Suggestions are welcome.

    Unfortunately, Microsoft does not offer more licenses Windows XP or Windows Vista.  It would be wise to invest in new computers with Windows 7 Professional pre-installed.  Examples

    You can make a Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade by buying a Windows Anytime Upgrade: Windows 7 Home Premium to professional for each computer running Windows 7 Home Premium.

  • Can I upgrade first Elements for Windows 10?

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Adobe first Elements 8.

    I think the upgrade from my computer.

    My software run on Windows 10 using Google Chrome as my browser?

    Thanks in advance for your comments and advice.

    Jim

    Based on my work with Premiere Elements on Windows 10 64-bit, you should be able to use Photoshop Elements 8 and first Elements 8 on 64-bit Windows 10 if they worked on Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 64-bit. My impression is that Premiere Elements successes and failures are the same before and after the upgrade to 64-bit Windows 10. So make sure that you go through the usual 8.0/8.0.1 drill in order to use this version on an operating system.

    Plenty of choice of default browser on Windows 10 64-bit Microsoft Edge, even Internet Explorer. Can download and install Firefox and Google Chrome. I did a major study on Windows 64-bit 10 and browsers, but everything seems to work OK with the choice of browsers mentioned.

    Apple has a problem with QuickTime 7 latest version for 64-bit Windows 10 7.7.8. Until Apple is working on these problems, download and install QuickTime 7.7.6 to meet the requirements of the first Element to the last version of QuickTime 7 is installed on your computer with it. This QuickTime 7.7.6 will work in 64-bit Windows 10 to meet this requirement of Premiere Elements although it is not actually the latest version of QuickTime 7.

    Please let me know if I've referred to your questions. Otherwise, please give more information on the additional information you need

    Thank you.

  • HP 15 Notebook P: Impossible to upgrade / reserve slot for windows 10

    Many of my friends has slit reserve alr windows10 upgrade and I also want an upgrade of windows 10 in the coming months, but now I am facing a problem... With all the windows update done, I could not yet move to windows 10 >

    Hello:

    This is what worked for me...

    I zipped and tied a tool that hopefully will get windows 10 icon on the taskbar of your PC, as it did for me.

    To run it, unzip the file and right-click on the file and select run as administrator.

    After reading the disclaimer notice, run the first menu item to confirm your PC has the required updates.

    Then run the second menu item, and it is the one that did the trick for me.

    Then simply click on the GET W10 icon to get a software booking W10.

  • Is there an upgrade online available for Windows 2000 to Windows XP?

    Windows 2000 Professional upgrade

    My plan is to buy a new computer very soon, I am looking for a short term solution to my problem.  I'm on Windows 2000 Professional and I use Turbo tax to do my income taxes.  However, I cannot load program Turbo tax this year because it supports more Windows 2000.  My question: is there an upgrade online from Windows 2000 to XP still available?  Or, is there another upgrade online (directly to Vista or Windows 7) that I could use to get my taxes done.  The long-term solution will come in a few weeks when I buy my new thing.  Thank you

    A quick glance on the Toshiba Web site seems to indicate that there is no Windows 7 drivers for your laptop, but you can download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to double check.  If your laptop can support Windows 7, you can buy and install a version of it.  If you are about to buy a new computer, however, I wouldn't consider this course of action to be economically reasonable.

    Microsoft sells more than Windows XP or Vista.  Although you may be able to find CD's for these versions of Windows, they are likely to be expensive (Amazon), summary (eBay), or both.

    Either wait to do your taxes until you get your new computer or have them online, as Carey suggested.

    First of all, let's check that your version of windows is legitimate. Click on the link below. In the left pane, click "Validate Windows". Allow validation to complete. If you have MS Office installed so validate once windows validation is complete.

    I've upgraded to Windows 7 Professional and after charging me I get a message that has been the key to security to install blocked my Microsoft.  I got a message that I my have counterfeit software previously.  An hour on the phone with technical support from Microsoft in India was a joke.

    To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the diagnostic report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )

    Once downloaded, run the tool.

    Click on the button continue, after a short time, continue button will change to a copy button.

    Click the copy button in the tool (ignore the error at this stage) and then paste (with r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your message. (please do not change the report.)

    8 win in my PC is not that.      .. thanx... .Nick

    Hi Nick,

    Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that you have a problem with opening the programs of text and pictures after the computer upgrade to Windows 8. I appreciate your efforts to solve this problem, I'll probably help you solve this problem.

    This problem could occur if the default applications are not set correctly.

    I suggest you read the article that will help define the default applications that Windows automatically uses when you open a particular type of file, such as a song, film, photo or Web page.

    Choose the apps Windows uses by default

    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an up-to-date report of the issue so that we can help you further.
