Windows 10 Home vs. Windows 7 ultimate
I buy Dell Alien ware 17 R3 17.3 "laptop of game. There ttwhich of Microsoft I dislike. Is it possible to downgrade the OS to Windows 7 or Dell allows not to do?
Thank you
The system seems to have full support for Windows 7-64 bit driver. That said, 10 home door right of demotion, so you will need to provide your own license not enabled for Windows 7 key. In addition, Dell offers not only any medium software for 7 since it was delivered with 10, so you're on your own. They may require you to reinstall the original operating system before hardware support is available, so you need to do the recovery media or to replace the boot disk and store the original before you start.
The biggest problem with the installation of 7, it is that it requires a massive number of updates. If you don't like the interface of Windows 10, you can easily replace it with the classic interface, that offers UI 7 - without the pain of installation and update of a 10-year operating system and more.

I imagine that you have these problems, because a few months ago, I read an interesting article on this update and it was written on possible problems after the upgrade procedure. I installed a few times Ultimate on my A200 but as new installation.
What you can try is to install the OS by using recovery media, delete all the stuff designed by Toshiba, including all other software like Norton. After doing this upgrade brand.
When the upgrade is complete, install all the stuff of Toshiba order following facilities described in the instructions for Installations. I A200 with Vista Home Premium but I don't have a media Anytime upgrade and cannot test with my Satellite.

Hello
There are free downloads of Windows 7, but you would need a product key to activate it. It is therefore of no use to you.
You should contact the manufacturer of your laptop, in your case, Toshiba and get the Windows 7 Upgrade in the time to take advantage of the offer.
This is the upgrade Option:
How does the Windows 7 upgrade Option?
The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program takes place June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time to upgrade Option.
Unfortunately, it has expired.
For more information about the offer, please contact Toshiba.

If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

The upgrade in Windows Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate
Hello
I HAV downloaded the ISO file following from the MSDN (en_windows_7_ultimate_with_sp1_x86_dvd_u_677460.iso) site for the upgrade from Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit for Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.
How should I now improve my OS from Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit for Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. Double-click the ISO file says that Windows cannot open the file. How can I open the file? Should it be converted into a .exe file. If so, how?
Thank you.
A .iso file is an image of a dvd. It is not a program or data file. You need to burn this image on a dvd with your burning program. Copy disc, burn to disc. We'll then work the disc in your optical drive.

Upgrade Windows Vista Home Edition to Vista Ultimate
I want to upgrade Vista home to Vista Ultimate edition. In my Staples store seller told me that it is no longer available and I have bay Windows 7. but my computer is only 1.5 years old and I don't want to spend additional $ 350. Let me know how can I upgrade to Vista Ultimate.
Sincerely,
Max
The cost of the upgrade of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium to Windows Vista Ultimate Edition would have been about the same that the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate. Given that Windows Vista Ultimate Edition is no longer sold through distribution channels, you might as well move to Windows 7 Ultimate. Carey Frisch
