• I bought a new computer with Windows 7 free upgrade. We also have another office.

  I bought a new computer with Windows 7 free upgrade. We also have another desktop computer. My son has paid and downloaded Windows 7 Home Premium on this computer (Asus), not knowing that I had the free update. ASUS sent me free upgrade disks. Can I use these on another desktop computer? Or I can download Windows on another desktop computer and transfer my registration to it, and then use the Asus drives on this computer?

  Your question has nothing to do with the functionality of Windows Update (vs Windows upgrade), Jan.

  That being said, Asus only can answer your specific question. Good luck!

• I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full.

  I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full. I don't understand how he got that way... but... I've never used windows to the top, however I do back up with my Norton Security.  I'm not a COMPUTER guru AT ALL and am very confused as to what must be saved for me to do a system restore.  I just made a backup on a 16 GB usb flash drive, which included photos, documents, email, contacts and music.  But what of my registry or my drivers I've updated on the latest updates of 2 years and windows?

  So in plain English for the layperson to the computer, lol, can someone tell me...

  1. where should I back up to? (windows, norton?)

  2. what should I back up? EXACTLY, please. lol (I have hundreds of games, I don't want to back to the top if possible)

  3 and... HOW MUCH ALCOHOL SHOULD I HAVE AVAILABLE WHILE TRYING THIS. LOL just kidding. Laughing out loud

  Hello

  Updates must be installed in a certain order and no Service Pack must be installed unless and until it is offered through Windows Update.

  However, try these options:

  Step 1: You can not reuse what already automatically downloaded and installed. You can however save updates and install them manually if you wish.

  Step 2: You can create a system image on the computer. A system image is an exact copy of a disc. By default, a system image includes the drives required for Windows to run. In addition, it includes Windows and your system settings, programs and files. You can use a system image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive or computer ever stops working.

• Is there a view/windows photo editor 8 and the DVD burner?

  Is there a view/windows photo editor 8 and the DVD burner?

  I am new to Windows 8.  I try to be positive and I hope that learning to use it in the coming year.

  In Windows 7, there was a nice photo viewer/editor that let me also arrange slide shows, add music and burn the DVD the same.

  Is there something like that in Windows 8, or possibly a download?

  Thank you, Lee

  In regards to Yes Photo Viewer, Windows Photo Viewer is included in 8.0/8.1 0r Windows, you can install the latest version of Windows Essentials. With regard to the DVD recorder, that she was abducted by design, you can buy Windows Media Center to 10,00 US $ if you have Pro version or update Propak for US $100.00. Otherwise, there are many others, burning options - PowerDVD from Cyberlink is my choice.  Hope this helps and if you need help please post and we will be happy to help you.

  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

• HP Pavilion G6 series: reset my laptop HP Pavilion G series after Windows 10 free upgrade...

  I got the upgrade for the free update to Windows 10 on my laptop and restarting the first time I noticed that all the icons and background were gone, and the only thing on the black screen was my Advanced System Care Pro Performance Monitor that is always pinned on the desk by chance, since it is the only way to restart my computer now. I have to restart my laptop 3 times until all the icons appear on the screen, then I have about 5-10 seconds quickly hitting the new button start Windows and then the settings button and quickly reached the Firefox Logo that works also fortunately still. As soon as I get these two things open the icons and background stay for a little longer (maybe 20-30 seconds) then the back ground and icons and apps start flashing in and out in what I guessed only is two operating systems compete because I can open only some things in the settings menu as (which is grayed out) Device Manager and when you click top made appear an error which reads on a missing element, well that, if the icons are still flashing the Device Manager will turn black and I am able to click on it, but I have to me it just right when his blinker on black that I have to do in 20 seconds. Also, when I try to click on the Reset button this PC I can only click on it when the icons are flashing in this second 20-30 window so I have to get there quickly.  Firefox works normally at least. I posted my question and the advice of Microsoft Community, but nobody has yet tried to answer yet. I want to know if I reset the laptop will it reset with a Windows own 10? Will be the list of all the HP and almost all applications on the things in the computer to prevent it from working because my grandmother recently passed away and left me his laptop and there not all disks with him so I can't put all the apps back on if I re. I also have a runtime error when I unplug the power cord from the laptop.  I tried different things like Legacy, new AMD Radeon drivers driver download, all the drivers are up to date, start in safe mode, from modes of different startup with only startup apps, tried to manually disable applications from devices one by one, Manager and nothing has worked or changed what is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  http://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/3az5z1/how_to_stop_windows_10_automatically_updating/

  They say the automatic update of windows is to play with the display drivers (make them back off?) and the solution is to disable the auto update for this device driver using the method they provide and install the latest driver for windows 10 of the manufacturer.

  Insofar the restetting your pc - I have another machine and normally I will try "Refresh" through the RECOVERY WIZARD HP first before resetting and lose all my documents - if you can access the settings in windows 10 - go to 'update & security' and select «recovery' and then 'get started' below «return to windows xxxx»

  That's all I have to offer you at this stage

• Vista to Windows 7 free upgrade option?

  I read that Vista users will receive a free upgrade to Windows 7. How can I go to do this, if it's true?

  I have read through some more questions and found my answer. The program they had before is finished so I guess I can do it no longer. It was possible at one time.

• Windows Vista free upgrade to Windows 7 - GONE - WRONG!

  Hello.

  I bought this computer (HP Pavilion Dv61210 - his) coming 3 years ago now. I paid extra when I bought it to get the "free" upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 (which was not yet published).

  Anyway, the laptop died a few weeks ago and comes back with a new hard drive and you guessed it, VISTA! I hate Vista! I'd rather have XP Vista any day - but I want my copy of 7 back. If someone can advise on how I can do this, I would really apprecaite it. I know that the download page has been foolishly removed the other everything on time and the old hard drive is completely dead.

  I don't see why, after paying extra money on top (so the upgrade was not really free!), I can't have the operating system that I paid for. It is simply not good enough. I paid for the copy of windows 7 and I do not know that HP have documents who was eligeable / who downloaded the upgrade - which I am sure they can find me on as this is the same computer, series / product number, address recorded at etc - so I don't see why I can't get my copy , either to download or by mail on a disk for me.

  And prior to the issuance of the; "Yes, but they do not give you the discs any cause you can put it on computer and then one more" comes when you buy a copy in the store, on a disk, you can do this - does not mean that we all do well! I have HP hard drive dead if need be prove my copy is lost. Hell, they can take my laptop and install the OEM version on it for all, I worry so it would certainly be installed only on a single computer!

  THIS IS WHY PEOPLE NEED DISKS, HP!  IF YOUR PRODUCT FAILS, AS THIS ONE DID, WHY WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY MORE BECAUSE YOUR PRODUCTS ARE OF INFERIOR QUALITY? If I had the copy that I paid for a drive, I wouldn't even be here ranting about it, CAUSE I had HAVE RE-INSTALLED IT ALERADY!

  I think his dispicable to delete the download page and prevent people to recover expensive software, in this case a BONE, they paid for (and the computer only on the condition that he would have to purchase Windows 7 when it is released). It's basically theft! When you pay for something and you don't get it, you don't accept it! No, you're saying "they stole my money!"...

  It's not like HP is so tight on cash, they need to do these things, so that people who cannot afford having to buy new things all the time thanks to remove any kind of person to find their products! Absolutely disgusting!

  I even remember that when I was downloading the upgrade and internet problems, I called HP and was told by the woman if I could not download it, I could not have the disk and there is no refund. So I said: 'it means you're telling me that I paid for a product you can't have and you don't give me my money back?' and she said 'yes' and hung up. Shows you how much HP cares about their customers! Disgusting!

  Will not buy this brand again, definitely! The level of what is called 'customer service' is enough for you put off, never mind of waste like that!

• Dell windows 7 free upgrade

  Hey has any who actually received the update to windows 7? I bought my laptop on 10 July and my service tag not yet in the database dells. It has been good for 10 days. After many calls to dell the thing only customer service can tell me to wait 10 days until after my purchase date. Well, it was good for 10 days. How people even got an order placed. I see that this expedition dates back to the people who are a few orders how magically for after January, so I guess that I will never see my free upgrade? I think I need to communicate with the news and bring it to the report on this case. Seems similar to how they have deceived the people by pretending to have service on-site the next business day when she takes 5 days in my experience. Now I promised an update and I have until January to claim, but every attempt of saying me he's telling me I have to wait 10 days. Thank you were wrong me once again dell.  A bunch of liars and crooks.
