Using Vista Ultimate upgrad DVD on the new machine

I upgraded my computer which had OEM Vista Home of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition by buying an upgrade DVD, now 'only' computer died and I want to improve my new computer that has Vista Home OEM Vista Ultimate using the same Upgrade DVD. The final result uses the DVD to upgrade on a single computer, because the first died. How can I transfer the liscense to this software Vista Ultimate Upgrade to my new computer?

Perform the upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate as you normally and if you are unable to activate over the internet, then select the alternative "activate by phone".

    When activating my windows vista ultimate product, I get the response that the license key is already in use, let me know how to solve this problem?

    KiranS Hello,

    Judging by your post, it seems that Microsoft had technical problems when you tried to activate your copy of Vista by phone. Have you tried phoning the line Activation again?

    The normal procedure is that if the activation fails through the automated system, the call is transferred to a real person. It is the only available option if you get the error 'use existing product key'.

    I can only suggest that you try again the activation by phone and see what happens.

  • Don't arrive after Vista Ultimate Upgrade Windows Update to download SP1 for Windows Vista

    I have 2 computers were pre-installed with Vista Edition family content and Basic Service Pack 2. Due to a new system of distribution to come in I had to upgrade to Vista Ultimate. I bought the DVD upgrade containing all Service Packs. After removing the Service Pack 2 and Service pack 1 (in that order) Windows Update will not download Service Pack 1

    You have made or has not upgraded Vista Basic to Vista Ultimate computers?

    That said, Windows Update has nothing to do with upgrading a Vista computer.

    Given that these are specific consumer forums, try to publish in the appropriate Vista IT Pro instead-online http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/windowsvistaitpro forum

  • Satellite A200: After Vista Ultimate upgrade Chicony webcam does not work

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me. For 3 weeks, I have buy the Toshiba A200 with Windows Vista Home Premium and very good built-in Webcam function. I have no problem.

    Yesterday I did an upgrade to Windows Vista Edition full and now the Webcam does not work.
    Every time when I want to launch the following software message come «Please activate the webcam»

    In the it´s control panel that wrote this function of Doesna´t of hardware because the software isn't fair. But I have the right software. I have try the original software on me the hard drive and, of course, I do a download from Toshiba and I try this.
    But I still got the same message.

    Please help me.

    Hello

    I m not an A200 owner and, therefore, I can not say much about this webcam tool, but to my eyes the Chicony webcam software should work with Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, because this version is almost the same as Windows Vista Home Premium. The ultimate version supports more features like Home Premium, but the software is running and must be compatible with both versions of Vista.

    How did you install Vista Ultimate? You perform a new installation of the OS, or you upgrade only the Home Premium-> Ultimate?

    Anyway, currently version 1.0 of the Chicony camera software is available on the Toshiba page.
    You may need to wait until the new update has been published.

    Hi Herman,.

    You can try to use Windows Easy Transfer to transfer data and settings to C: on D: drive and install Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit on the C: drive. After installing Windows Vista 64 bit on C: drive try to reuse Windows Easy transfer to transfer the data back (from D: to C: drive).

    You can also take an external data backup before you attempt the Installation of Windows Vista.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  • Runtime error Vista Ultimate Upgrade

    I recently bought and downloaded Vista Ultimate Upgrade of the site ultimate steal Microsoft.  I downloaded all three components: X 14 - 63453.exe, install.wim and boot.wim.  I am running Windows XP Media Center edition 2005 with Service Pack 3 installed.  In preparation for the installation of Vista, I did a clean install of XPMC edition.  The Vista Upgrade advisor identified all my compatible material.

    Whenever I run the executable file either by hard drive, dvd or USB hard drive, I get the same error: "the application failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. "I don't get an error number in the message window, but I get the following in under the errors to the system event viewer:

    Generate activation context failed for E:\Mike's Files\Burned discs\Vista Ultimate 64 bit Red\X14 - 63453.exe. Reference error message: the operation completed successfully.

    .

    For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

    At the exact same time stamp, I get:

    Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.CRT could not be found and last error was that the referenced assembly is not installed on your system.

    For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

    Research leads me to believe that libraries VC ++ are not included with the installer and therefore need to be installed on my system.  In the case of corrent what application do I need to install to get these libraries?  Office 2007?  If this is not the case, correct, any advice on how to get my Vista downloaded to work?

    Mike

    Hi Mike

    Windows XP Media Center Edition is a 32-bit version of Windows.  You receive the error message because you are trying to level to a 64 bit Windows Vista version and is not possible.  There is more information about the installation of Windows Vista x 64 contained in the link below.

  • Can I upgrade Edition Vista Home premium to windows 7 using vista anytime upgrade for free?

    can I upgrade Edition Vista Home premium to windows 7 using vista anytime upgrade for free?

    Lol you cannot use Anytime Upgrade upgrading Vista to Windows 7.   The Vista program to THE was the upgrade of a Vista edition to a higher edition of Vista only.  The Vista program to THE ended when Vista was removed from retail sales.  It has never been free.

    THE present program is to upgrade an edition of Windows 7 to a superior and is only available to current users of Windows 7.

    If you want to upgrade Vista to Windows 7, you must purchase a standard upgrade of Windows 7 at retail price.  Please see

  • Microsoft cares if I use my old OS OEM with the new motherboard?

    I am building a newish computer; Microsoft cares any longer, if I use my old OS OEM with the new motherboard? All of the previous answers to this question are all about 2011 are resolutely "affirmative", they care. I know that Microsoft has had a change of heart (at least I think) regarding their operating system. With the upcoming free update, I was hoping I could recycle my Windows 7 64 bit, an increase in the time up to 10 comes out.

    Thank you.
