  • where can I download windows 7 premium or ultimate edition in order to update my windows vista basic

    I have the product key for my Windows Vista Basic Home Edition;  but I can not find windows 7 premium or ultimate edition to download and upgrade my windows vista computer.  I am looking in the Microsoft page and I can't find the Advisor to upgrade windos I have laready run. Now I need a direction to download windows 7 anyone can help me?

    Thanks in advance

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    Full version (retail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

    When you request support, please provide the number of name and/or product of comprehensive model of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq made thousands of computer models which are all different. Without this information, it can be difficult, even impossible to help you solve your problem.

    You can download a (ISO) image of Windows 7 SP1 by using the links provided in this HP forum thread titled "How to install Windows 7 without the disc". During the installation of Windows 7 you must use the product key of Windows 7 from the Microsoft COA on the underside of your computer. If your computer came with a different operating system, you will need to purchase a copy of Windows 7 with a COA and a key valid unused product.

    Hello

    This may depend on your condition. If the computer on which you want to install the new operating system is for typical home use, then you may want to buy Windows 7 rather than Windows Server 2008.

    Also, please take a look at the underside of the articles that might help you to choose the operating system.

  • I just downloaded windows 7 on my computer and now it says I do not have a card installed, network driver what should I do?

    I just downloaded windows 7 on my computer and now it says I do not have a card installed, network driver what should I do?

    If the computer is running XP or Vista, for example, before installing W7, it may mean that the manufacturer of the PC card or network did not have a driver for W7.

    Go to the site of the original manufacture of the PC (brand/model) support and see if they make an adapter for your specific model of W7. If they do download it, to get the right version IE 32 or 64-bit as needed. If the PC manufacturer doesn't provide one, try the website of the company that makes the actual adapter and see if they do.

    If you are unable to connect to the internet on this PC, you will need to download the driver on another PC and transfer it through via a USB stick or an SD card.

    Is there no driver W7 made for your specific PC and its adapter, then you may need to consider buying a replacement network card and use it.

  • says I need adminstarter password to allow windows to download adobe reader

    says I need administrator password to download adobe reader .will be noy windows to download with the word pass. How can I create a new one?

    Hello unclebean,.

    When you try to download Adobe Reader?
    You can download here without an administrator password.
    http://get.Adobe.com/reader/

    The only problem that I can see if you are in a domain environment, the network administrator for your domain can have implemented policies
    limit downloads to administrators only. If this is the case, you will need to contact your network administrator.

    I hope this helps.
