• Re use Vista Home Premium Upgrade disc

  Hello

  I bought and Vista Home Premium Upgrade disc and upgraded to Windows XP.  Unfortunately my PC has not enough graphics to run Aero and DVD Maker (915 chipset), and I had tried unsuccessfully to introduce a new videocard (power problem).  So I gave up with this PC and will probably go back to XP or get a copy of Vista Home Basic which will be OK on this PC.

  I did the clean installation thing with the upgrade disk if my old XP system is not affected and can be restored without problem.

  My question is:

  If I buy a latest PC who has the necessary graphics to run the Home Premium edition, can I re reuse the upgrade disc, or the activation process will fail because of "improved" after having already.

  Thanks for your help

  Hi Evereti,

  You can try installing upgrade of Windows Vista on another PC as if you removed completely from Windows Vista to Windows XP PC. You will not be able to use the same copy on two different computers at the same time. It will affect the Product Activation.

• If I use at any time update in windows vista home premium upgrade to complete, I need a Windows Vista Ultimate key to activate too?

  If I use at any time update in windows vista home premium upgrade to complete, I need a Windows Vista Ultimate key to activate too?. Please answer

  Yes.

  You will need to BUY a Vista Ultimate Upgrade product key/license disk

  Windows Anytime Upgrade Vista is no longer available; which you always had to pay anyway...

  Try to buy Vista Ultimate Upgrade online: newegg, amazon, etc.

  Alternatively, try your local computer store.

  This isn't for free.

• Help with error message: "Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed in is invalid for activation.

  Original title: help with error message... Please...!

  I use a desktop PC of HP Pavilion a6202.uk with Windows Vista Home Premium & Microsoft Office 2003.  When I am back from vacation & turned on my PC, my password was OK, but rather to raise Windows, I received the following message: "Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed in is invalid for activation.  He then listed the following options: "access your computer with reduced functionality (this will allow you to buy a product online key)" or "Type a different product key" or "contact HP to help solve this problem."

  I have no idea what a product key is and don't have anything either in the type comes to connect as usual.  I can't access anything to be same to reduced functionality.  I can not type in a new product key because I did not.  I can not contact HP - phone number does not... !!

  I'm quite desperate, I travel docs to print and e-mail to answer and I don't have any idea what is happening.  Please can someone help with this not very IT clued-up DTP...!

  Moved from Vista programs Forum.

  You should have a sticker with the product key on your computer, on the bottom, or under the battery cover.  I try to type this key in and see if it accepts it.  If this isn't the case, you might not have an authentic version of Windows installed.

• Complete PC Backup and restore | Vista home Premium | upgrade

  I want to create a full backup/restore of my system because 1 of my RAID volume has failed. (My computer is less than 6 months old). I was ignorant when I bought my new system Vista Home Premium won't let me create this type of backup.

  In order to get this feature that I have to upgrade to Vista Ultimate for $220? This seems a little high for a function. Also if I update can I erase on my current hard drive when you install the upgraded operating system (i.e. I have to reinstall everything anyway since the full backup/restore will not work until the new operating system is installed)?

  TIA

• Reinstalled windows (Vista Home Premium upgrade), will not let me activate

  I had to reformat/reinstall windows on my Vista Home premium computer, but now when I try to activate, I get an error indicating that the upgrade cannot be used for clean installation. That's fine, because I know that the activation of the phone will operate, but I can't find a phone number for the activation of the phone. When I do the slui.exe 4, he'll need just to options where it asks me to put in the code, then gives me just the error message. He will never give me the option for the offline or activation of the phone (I even tried to unplug my internet). I'm looking for a phone number to get it activated...

  The best thing for you to do is repeat the installation, this time as an upgrade of the current, ensuring that you enter the key on request the installation - it should then accept and activate normally.

  Hello

  Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

• What is the disk file part # or download vista home premium upgrade to the 32-bit version of windows 7 Home premium.

  I have a Dell xps 420 desktop computer microsoft vista home preimum sp2 and want to upgrade to windows 7. Go online to shop for the best disc and or the price for this upgrade is very confusing to me to say. I want just the version of windows 7 home preimum, but I see the price for these discs from $80.00 up to $ 300.00 million. I'm sure that they are not the same discs or there was not this price differential.

  I don't care if I get the cd/dvd or a download version, but I don't want any version which requires me to do a custome update as I do not know how to save all my programs and data re - install later. I think I should be able to upgrade for less than $ $100,00.

  Can someone help this old man (81)?   Thank you, Bob s.

  There is no electronic download for Windows 7 and Microsoft have removed most of the editions of sale general retail.

  Your only real option is an upgrade kit. All that would require a custom installation deletes all.

  Dell do not list Windows 7 drivers for this system.

  It would be risky to try something as important as an upgrade of the operating system without a backup and the means necessary to reinstall your system if you wish, how would recover you your data and programs if the computer has failed?

  I already bought an upgrade of the retail series Windows 7 Ultimate from Windows Vista that I've ever used.
  Is it possible to use it to upgrade to win 7 home premium to ultimate?

  If the license for Windows 7 Ultimate, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate edition at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify its update of the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate files the stored settings and programs.

• Question for the Vista Home Premium upgrade to Windows 7?

  After you run the Upgrade Advisor, I like Windows mail is compatible with Windows 7. How can I save my emails filed so I don't lose them when I do the upgrade? Thamks

  Windows Update has nothing to do with the upgrade of Windows. That being said...

  Your Windows Mail data will be preserved when you switch to Win7.

  Unlike Vista and Windows XP, Win7 does NOT have any default mail client. However, you can install Windows Live Mail (free) or another e-mail Client (e.g. MS Outlook, which is not free) and then import data from Windows Mail stored in your new email Client.

  You can find more help in this specific Win7 forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads
