  • HP laptop purchased with Win Vista later upgraded to Windows 7 - laptop damaged

    Hello

    I bought a laptop HP with Win Vista later upgraded to Windows 7. Now, the laptop is damaged for the 2nd time. I would go for a locally assembled desktop computer with Intel, last configuration chipset.

    Can I use Win Vista / Win 7 license key on my desktop? What installer I use (Win Vista or Win 7)? and how do I get the installer?

    Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    PAL

    Hello

    You cannot transfer the license of Vista.

    If Windows 7 Upgrade was not part of this upgrade offering free back then, you can transfer, but you need an operating system to be installed to upgrade.

    Read this information and you will understand what I mean:

    If the computer/laptop comes with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) or is licensed to OEM System Builders, that the product key that came with the computer/laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) and the license OEM System Builders are related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when machine who dies.

    Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

    See you soon.

  • Perennial and Win 7 installed upgrading to win8

    I'm building a new PC and I am determined to Win 7 Home premium on it.   I'm starting with a 1 to SATA HD, but I want to move to an SSD later.  MY question is, I have to buy a new copy of win7 to install on it?

    In addition, with the upcoming release 8 victory, will be a new copy of win 7 come with the option to upgrade later WIN 8 without another payment and given the somewhat controversial Metro interface, configuration (I admit, I have not yet agree about it yet), I would be more able to come back to win 7?

    Change the storage device (SSD HARD drive) does not require that you buy a new license of Windows 7, you can use the same license and reactivate by phone if necessary.

    Purchasing Windows 7 today will not entitle you to a free upgrade to Windows 8. You can buy Windows 8 If you want to run on your computer. You can purchase an upgrade to Windows 8 Pro for $39.99 from 26 October 2012.

  • Disable the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade before installing on another computer?

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv5 the cam, e with Win 7 Home Premium. I'm walking the OS for Win 7 Ulitimate.

    Now, I'll sell the dv5 and want to install the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade on another computer. I need to disable the Win 7 Ultimate license upgrade, or do I just restore the dv5 back to factory condition using the recovery disk.

    And then just install the Win 7 Ultimate Upgrade on another computer?

    You are the very welcome, Mike.

    If you obtained a retail product key, you should be able to install W7 Ultimate on any other PC.

    If you don't have a Microsoft account or a link where you can download W7 Ultimate once again, then you can get it here...

    2147483647 English Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 X 17 - 59465.iso of http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/Win/X17-59465.ISO

    Then use this tool to transfer the ISO to a flash USB 4 GB or DVD drive.

    The tool also performs the bootable media.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Make sure that the size of the ISO file you get is that the download site indicated that it was.

    Sometimes the download says "complete", but it wasn't and you end up with a partial file, which will not work.

  • Can I use my Win 7 Pro Upgrade to upgrade my laptop running Win 7 Home?

    I bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade before realizing that I had bought the wrong upgrade to what I had on my computer. I ended up having to buy a Win 7 Home, then update to Win 7 Ultimate, so I could keep all my programs in tact. Now, I'm about to get a laptop. If the laptop has Windows 7 Home installed, can I use my Win 7 Pro upgrade for the version of Win 7 Home upgrade? If not, what version on the laptop do I need if I can use my already purchased Win 7 Pro Upgrade? There is no other computer autour who can't use my upgrade, it seems, because I ordered the version of 64-bit operating system, so I guess that laptop must have an operating system 64-bit as well.

    Anytime Upgrade using year already bought Retail Pro/Ultimate key

    In Windows 7 Home Premium, type Anytime Upgrade in search programs and files box on the start menu, and then click the Windows Anytime Upgrade.  From there, you can enter your product key of Windows 7 Professional/ultimate retail and perform a simple upgrade. All programs and files will remain on the computer, there is no drive necessary and it takes about 10 minutes.

  • After signing to Windows 10 free upgrade and if windows 7 or 8 re-installed will still get 10 free upgrade Windows.

    Hi friends.

    I'm new to this forum.

    Wanted to know, had recently windows flash 10 indicator of free upgrade. Registered for it but for some reason, I need to reinstall my Windows 7 64 bit SP1.

    After re-installation of Windows 7 after 3 days as I have not received flag upgrade windows 10 on my system tray.

    So I would like to know, if I get the upgrade windows free 10 when it is available.

    Concerning

    C.

    There is no need to "reserve" anything.  This is purely marketing share MS to "encourage" users upgrade.  They will be happy to pass any OS eligible in the first year for free, and it will remain free for the life of the device when it was released on July 29

    There will be some ISO available when win 10 is out July 29

  • If I can get my free upgrade to windows windows 10 8

    Hi all

    Own, I installed windows 8 Pro in my Lenova S110 net book but I am unable to open applications metro because of my screen resolution is 1024 x 600 and metro apps will only open in the resolutions of 1024 x 768 minimum.  I can't upgrade to windows Pro 8.1 because of shop windows does not open in my net book. I am attaching another monitor with a resolution higher and tried to start windows store this monitor and my system crashed with a blue screen. I tried various methods such as discussed in the internet, but there is no use.

    Now I ask, is there any method to upgrade to my net book Windows Pro 8.1?

    If windows 10 support the display resolution of 1024 X 600?

  • Legitimate request for a free upgrade to Windows 7

    I am new to this forum and am revolted by the attitude of the staff of the Toshiba customer support to my legitimate request for a free upgrade to windows 7, here's an email I wrote in which I would appreciate your comments on:

    To the right.

    I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with your response to my legitimate request for a free upgrade to Windows 7 see I recently spent more than £1,000 of one of your products.

    After having several problems with the Vista operating system, I telephoned your customer on December 4 and had a conversation with an employee who could not satisfy me as to why my machine was not entitled to an update free to Windows 7, as mentioned on your web site.

    He offered to take me up to a supervisor I agreed and that was connected to a female member of staff who tried to explain that my model did not appear in the "promotion". I couldn't sense in explaining, in the context of facts that my machine was of the same age and from the same family as those seen offer "promotion."

    This employee was still unable to respond or understand my question and said that it is not technical interested so I asked him to put me through to his supervisor and after 10 minutes on the line, I need to speak to Alistair Cook.

    Mr. Cook explained 'promotion' for me, but could not explain why my model was not an option, so he said he'd call at the time where he discovered why. What he has made some time after and repeated her account earlier with no clarity. He said he would do more research on the issue and send me the results.

    This contacting your customer support Office took a total of 48 minutes on the phone.

    Vista is of all intentions, a failure, a fact that you accept your offer of free updates to your customers, so why discriminate against some consumers and not others.

    I am a user of long-standing computers Toshiba, the Qosmio is my third laptop and I have always been satisfied customer support, not that it was greatly needed. So, I ask again that do you the right thing and give me my eligibility based on principles.

    Yours sincerely.

    Hi mate

    Very interesting point of view.
    But the fact is that not all cell phones from Toshiba are checked for an upgrade to Windows 7.
    Why?

    Well, I checked Toshiba European page
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> Windows 7 upgrade

    and there I was able to find a list of FAQS.

    One of the FAQ provides this info:

    _What requirements I must meet to participate in the program of upgrade? _

    + To participate in the upgrade program, you must meet the three following criteria: +.
    + 1. You purchased your Toshiba computer between June 26, 2009 and January 31, 2010. +
    + 2. Your Toshiba computer is one of the series of model to check on the Toshiba page. +
    + 3. With your Toshiba computer, you bought an operating system Windows Vista Home Premium Edition, Windows Vista® professional or Windows Vista® Ultimate Edition. +

    It seems that several criteria must be met in order to participate in the Windows 7 upgrade program.
