You must use the upgrade wizard to determine if your system can run Windows 8.1.

There is no way to direct upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 8.1.

    I have Acrobat professional 9. I moved it to my new computer Windows 10. Whenever I have printed on a home printer it ask again me if I want to improve and I only have 12 days to do it. How can I get rid of him. I have a valid license. What is the cost and benefits, the upgrade to Acrobat 9 professional to the latest version (I think it's X)

    No, X is not the last. In fact, X, as 9 is now unsupported. After X XI, after that XI was DC. DC is the current version. No upgrade price from 9 more, unfortunately. You can subscribe to DC, and this is recommended because it gets new features faster and includes future updates (probably will be necessary as Microsoft moves to Windows 10 edition when they feel like it, instead of waiting for Windows 11/12 etc..)

  • Should I upgrade Windows?

    I have a HP laptop with a processor core 2 Duo running Windows Vista. It's one of those huge media notebooks with a built-in HD, CD player. It is the HD format that was competing with Blu - ray a few years ago. It has 4 GB of RAM and works well, except that missing a dll that is causing the error messages. I found a web site hosted by Microsoft, I think, which detects and installs the missing DLL. My problem is that my teenage son has used the computer and contracted many types of malicious software. Even if I scanned and eliminated what we found, I always fear to enter a credit card to pay for the service of the DLL. My question is whether I should upgrade to a newer version of Windows by formatting the hard drive completely? The Microsoft program that detects the indicated material that I can use a 32-bit version of Windows. The Windows upgrade would take more space on my hard drive? Would it not slower? And finally, there are the drivers in support of my old CD player? The hard drive is only 1 Gig, which was considered as big at that time. But the manual says that it is easy to replace. It would cost thousands to replace the computer with a new similar model, if they are still made. This monster has a 21-inch screen and is ideal for watching movies. And if I just stick with Vista, can I pay for missing DLLs by phone? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but the size of your hard drive in no 1 GB.

    Vista will not install on 1 GB

    And if you have a site "Microsft" that will search for and provides drivers, it's a scam.

    You can reinstall Vista on a HP by pressing F11 at startup.

  • How to upgrade Windows XP to the video card of 2010

    I am told that I need the latest version of the drivers for video card 2010 game Gamehouse. How can I do this

    First you must determine which video card you have.

    If you have a computer 'brand', especially a laptop, it is best to get the drivers from the web site of the manufacturer of the computer.  Depending on the brand, you may need to enter a 'serial number (Dell) or type/model designation (Lenovo) and you should be able to get the video driver for your specific computer.

    If not, start the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK) and click on the + sign to the left "display cards.  That should tell you the make and model of your video card.  You can then go to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card and download the current driver.  DO NOT select "Update driver" in Device Manager.  This will cause usually your download one driver Windows Update, which generally is NOT the current driver.

    There should be guidance on any web site, you get the driver from on how to install it.
