Windows 7 Professional Upgrade 32 / 64-bit
Email Email removed for privacy
To use a Windows 7 upgrade version, you must have a qualification system of operating Windows installed, such as Windows XP or Windows Vista (Windows 7 Enterprise is not a qualification o/s). You must return your copy of Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade (Microsoft North American Retail product refund Guidelines) and then buy an edition "Full Version" of Windows 7 and perform a "clean installation."

I recently built a computer and require a BONE, I'm a student and found an agreement here---> http://e5.onthehub.com/WebStore/OfferingsOfMajorVersionList.aspx?pmv=b01abaf7-4588-de11-8cd1-0030487d8897&&ws=46106921-d5f4-e011-8e6c-f04da23e67f6&vsro=8. It says upgrade so im wondering if it will give me windows or do I need something else... Help?
However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
You must purchase a license of full version.
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.

Please note that Microsoft ended sales of Windows 7 such as Home Premium and Ultimate editions, so the purchase while you can. Editions of Windows 7 Professional should always continue to be available for another year.

Where can I get the ISO for Windows 7 Professional edition 64-bit (Spanish)
Hello
I can't find a link to download the ISO of Windows 7 professional 64-bit Spanish edition.
I have a license key and I would like to burn a DVD with this iso, where can I find it?
For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.
It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.
Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:
-
Well, here's my situation...
(1) purchased a computer with windows vista (32-bit) on it earlier
- Did not get a recovery disk.
- There is no 'sticker' on the computer indicating the type of vista (home etc.) or the product key.
(2) used my student account at Microsoft to buy Windows 7 Professional 32 bit
- I have the product id and product key.
- I burned the ISO image to a disc (the disc has now lost) and ran it by restarting.
- I chose the upgrade instead of the fresh start option since I wanted to keep my files.
- Everything worked well.
(3) my computer is slow because this year, I had downloaded a lot of software. Instead of uninstalling stuff, I recorded all important files on a disc and completely erased from my hard drive to a new beginning. I took measures
- Created a system repair disc.
- Downloaded the software used to wipe my hard drive - Boot and Nuke.
- Engraved Boot and Nuke on a disc.
- Ran the disc by restarting.
- Boot and Nuke wiped the hard drive successfully.
- Inserted the repair disc Windows 7 that I created earlier and rebooted.
- Went through steps, nothing not arrived and began to receive an error message.
- Learned that I needed more than the floppy disk repair.
(4) my troubleshooting and what I tried
- On another computer, I downloaded the iso image of Windows 7 Professional SP1 32 bit and it burned.
- Ran the disc by restarting.
- I got to the screen to enter the product key and I did it, but he said that "the product key is invalid.
- Discovered that I have a key for Windows 7 Professional 32-bit (but not the SP1 version). So I downloaded the iso for the RTM of Windows 7 Professional.
- Ran the disc by restarting.
- I got to the screen to enter the product key and I did it, but he said that "the product key is invalid.
Quick review:
(1) I have the product id and the product key for Windows 7, I bought with my student account.(2) I do not have the version of Vista that was installed at the factory and did I not the id product or the product key.(3) I tried the product key Windows 7 Professional 32 bit I have with the SP1 and RTM version without success.(4) I am 100% sure that I'm in the keys properly. Without typos.I don't know what I can do. What I am doing wrong? Is there hope for my situation? I don't want to spend money so please do not suggest buying another copy.An explanation I can find is that I actually purchased the Windows 7 Professional 32 Bit update. If this is the case, what are my options? I recently explored microsoftstore and recently found a Windows 7 Professional Upgrade sold to students it might be what I bought. So, what should I do?Edit:I remember that one of the reasons why I want to get Windows 7 Professional was because of Aero and the only Windows Vista who have not Aero has Windows Vista Home Basic is the type of the operating system has been installed at that time, but I still have not the product id or the product key for this factory installed OS. Personally, I removed the sticker at the rear of the laptop thinking hey what I need at the moment? I don't have Vista any more I have the product key for Windows 7 that I just bought. But now I need it. :/ I hope someone has a solution out there.Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help.However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it.

Volume Licensing is the most affordable to upgrade your existing PC to Windows 7. If your PC is not already covered by Software Assurance, you can purchase licenses to upgrade thanks to a Volume Licensing program to access Windows 7 Enterprise.See you soon.

What is the best way to upgrade Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 Ultimate
What is the best way to upgrade Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 Ultimate to load the language packs?
Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft community. Sorry for the delay in responding.Please take a look at this article for more information on the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate.
Upgrade to another edition of Windows 7 by using Windows Anytime Upgrade but now it would be better if you upgrade to Windows 10 directly. If you have Windows 7 Professional, you qualify for a free update to Windows Professional 10.Which edition of Windows I get as part of the free update?
To install the language packs take a look at this article.
Hope that the information provided has been helpful and let us know if you need more help. We will be happy to help you.

We have two computers on a home network: I had built in 2008 with Windows XP and then I bought a HP on shelf with Vista for my children. I connected them together; the XP pc is connected to the ADSL and the Vista pc gets access to the internet through the network as well as access to a wireless network laser printer. I'm looking to upgrade to Windows 7. I would like my own upgrade to Windows 7 Professional for my XP programs, etc. are always usable/accessible. What I need to upgrade the computer Vista business, too, or can I just switch to the Home version, while keeping our network?
You will need to buy two separate editions of Windows 7. You'll have to do a custom installation of Windows XP without worrying, there is no way to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7.
According to the edition of Windows Vista you have, you can do an upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7.
The upgrade to Windows XP?
Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.
Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).
More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.
1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.
2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.
3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.
4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."
5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.
If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.
http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/13/WinXP-to-Win7/
The upgrade of Windows Vista?
When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.
If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:
Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

Re: Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 "Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD" upgrade
We have a Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 (bought on 23-11-09) that came with Vista Business 32-bit installed, but has been downgraded (using the provided diskette) to Windows XP due to the demands of corporate network.
When Windows 7 became available, I bought the DVD to upgrade to Windows 7 Toshiba provided so that if the company decided to upgrade to the new operating system, we could do it on this laptop.
That's what I tried recently to discover that we can't do as the DVD is for Win Vista upgrade Windows 7 Pro. What is the best way to upgrade without having to buy another drive to upgrade. I have a set of recovery disks for an another Toshiba SatellitePro A300 - 2 4 which was bought about 2 months before this one. These were created using the Toshiba recovery software before any changes have been made on the laprop. Would I be able to restore the system to its state of Windows Vista using these disks and then use the Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD to make the upgarde?
Suggestions or recommendations would be greatly received.
This upgrade package offered by Toshiba is upgraded from Vista to Win7. So if you want to use it, you must install Vista recovery image at first.
After that, you can upgrade pre-installed Vista to Win7 following the Toshiba s implementation instructions.
I did the same thing my Qosmio X 300.If you cannot use created recovery disc either s order Toshiba Vista recovery disk or (perhaps the best solution) install the clean version of Win7. A300 is fully supported for Win7 and you can download all the necessary drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utilities.

X220T Windows 8 Professional upgrade possible?
Hello
My x220T (Tablet) is currently running on Windows 7 Professional. I was wondering if this device all drivers should I upgrade to Windows 8 Professional? Thanks for the help in advance.
Jay
Welcome to the forum!
X220T does not meet the requirements of MS to W8.
That said, the operating system is running on it, but you may experience various problems and the overall user experience is likely to be less satisfying than W7 in my opinion.

The upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional
Well, I still found a definatative answer to my question. Here's my situation. I have a netbook with Windows 7 Starter. I HAVE a retail upgrade Windows 7 Professional DVD with product key. My question is simply this. If I use Windows Anytime Upgrade can I use my product key for my upgrade retail box when it asks for the product key? Because windows does not have a product until the key after installation I don't want to go all the way at the end of installation to find out that the product key is not going to work. Any help would be greatly appeciated. Thank you
It's the Windows Update forum. Suggest that you post this question on the forum Windows 7 install, upgrade and activate because it has nothing to do with the update. Thank you.
