When I click on the Windows 7 Upgrade nothing happens and the program does not start.

This is on a Dell Vostro 1520.

I'm trying to reinstall an os upgrade Windows 7 32 bit.

I am currently using Vista 32 bit. I sell the dell so I formatted and reinstalled 32 bit Vista OS.

The computer was running on an operating system Windows 7 before the reinstall.

Now when I click on the Windows 7 upgrade it does not load.

When I try to open since the reboot it will not open either.

What now?

Hey, Slugger,

New installation leaves you a better overall installation,

Installation custom own steps

You can use a Full Windows 7 or upgrade disk to do a custom clean install. This will remove all of your programs, but you can save your files and settings on an external storage before doing so. You will need to reinstall all your programs after installing Windows 7. Here are the steps:

1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if there are known problems that might affect installation and if you can install the 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows 7.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor

2 back up your files and settings. To avoid losing everything that you will need to save copies of all files, photos and other information that you want to keep an external storage device. Windows Easy Transfer is a free tool allows you to copy your files (but not programs) from your PC and then transfer them back after you have installed Windows 7. If you don't want to use Windows Easy Transfer, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick or CD/DVD.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/Windows-easy-transfer

3. find the discs original installation and license/product keys associated to programs currently on your computer because you will have to manually reinstall your programs after installing Windows 7. Depending on what you have installed, you may be able to download programs from the Internet.

4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)." Note: 32 to 64-bit requires restart and boot from the DVD.

5. when Windows 7 is installed, you can use Windows Easy Transfer (or a different backup method you used) to restore your files & settings and use your installation disks to reinstall all your programs. Then you're done - take advantage of Windows 7.

Steps 2, 3and 4 are recommended for Dell not offering systems not Windows 7 installed at the factory. Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to check that all of your software and computer components are ready for Windows 7. This application will scan your system and make recommendations on what to do before the upgrade to Windows 7.

  • Is there a way to remove the icons on my desktop without deleting the associated files when right-clicking on the icon does not offer this option?

    Most of the icons that appear on my desk I have download the new application files can be removed without uninstall or remove related files.  But when I right click on the icons that appeared after reinstalling Panda Internet Security and download of Adobe Reader software to date there is no option to remove the icon, there is rather a prompt asking you if I'm sure I want to move the file to the trash - which I did not.  When I look at 'properties', I see that the location for the two is my office.  I'm trying to reduce the visual clutter, is it possible to do?

    Hello

    Click right icon - properties - general tab - Type of file - if it is a LNK then it's only a
    Shortcut and if you DELETE it then only it is removed and the underlying program is not
    affected. To see where the program check the tab shortcut - target:.

    If she is not a LNK and is a. EXE, com, bat and others so if if you delete the file
    (which is not a shortcut) and then the program will not work. Shortcuts usually have ARROWS
    on them in the lower left corner.

    For programs that are stand-a-lone (were copied on the desktop and not installed) you
    can make files elsewhere and copy them (and other parts such as.) DLL or. CFG
    only as examples and some will have no other room) to then remove them from the
    Desktop computer. If you have any programs that were installed on the desktop, you need to uninstall
    them and their re - install elsewhere.

    I hope this helps.

    First of all, you are mistaken when you say that the PC does not start.

    This is clearly starting. The problem comes from Windows, not with the real PC. It's actually a very important distinction!

    There are methods to repair Windows, but they can be a bit tedious. By all means, follow the advice given here to do if you're so inclined.

    If you would not rather to repair Windows (and I think it's interesting a try) or your repair attempts are unsuccessful, apparently, you would need to use an external optical disc drive and follow the instructions here:

    I'm a little confused about your ad Mr. Why ask you this question here?

    Here he s a user to Toshiba user forum where people can discuss on laptops Toshiba and Toshiba software, drivers, etc., but this data logger has nothing to do with Toshiba.

    In this case you must contact directly to the manufacture of the data logger. Guys have to know what you have to do to make it work.

    When you try to import a .mp4 file in windows movie maker, the program does not list the file when I search for it in his file.  Help, please.

    As I suggested previously, conversion to a format like

    Looks like Counter Strike 1.6 is not compatible with the Windows 8 operating system from the link:

    1 have you ever done any recent hardware or exchange of software on your computer before the show?

    Follow these steps to uninstall the game.

    a. press on keys Windows + X to your keyboard, then select Control Panel.

    b. Select uninstall a program

    Step 2:

    Follow the steps to install in compatibility mode:

    a. setting up the game file right click and select Properties and then tap or click on the compatibility tab.

    b. check the box run this program in compatibility mode .

    c. press or click the menu drop down and select a previous operating system, and then tap or click OK.

    For reference:
