• Vista Business - > Win 7 Home Premium upgrade does not work with my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disc

  I bought a Windows 7 upgrade for $99 at Dell when I bought a new computer Win 7 and am finally getting around to upgrading my Vista Business.  The reason for road upgrading rather than clean install was to avoid reinstalling all applications, a major, major time sink, even if I find all the drives in application.  Is the upgrade to Win 7 Home Premium.

  After starting the upgrade, he stopped, telling me that I can only switch to Win 7 Pro, Ultimate or enterprise. For the upgrade to proceed, told me that he needed a clean installation and that I would then have to re - install all the applications.  I looked on the Microsoft site, trying to find how to set my Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc, but I have been unable to find how this could be done after through many convolutions of web pages.

  Could someone tell me please how to put my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disk to a Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc?

  Thank you very kindly for any response.

  I guess it depends on what side of the coin of your on. If someone bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade, whereas they would have only a single lane of evolution, which is the more common scenario.

• Reinstalled windows (Vista Home Premium upgrade), will not let me activate

  I had to reformat/reinstall windows on my Vista Home premium computer, but now when I try to activate, I get an error indicating that the upgrade cannot be used for clean installation. That's fine, because I know that the activation of the phone will operate, but I can't find a phone number for the activation of the phone. When I do the slui.exe 4, he'll need just to options where it asks me to put in the code, then gives me just the error message. He will never give me the option for the offline or activation of the phone (I even tried to unplug my internet). I'm looking for a phone number to get it activated...

  The best thing for you to do is repeat the installation, this time as an upgrade of the current, ensuring that you enter the key on request the installation - it should then accept and activate normally.

• I have Vista Home Premium, I can not install my Mcafee Total Protection 2011

  I start the installation but, then minutes later it gives me a message that

  the Mcafee Intergrated Security Platform Installer has stopped working.

  I have been helped by Mcafee Technical Support 3 times, they couldn't solve the problem from their end, that they told me to ask microsoft. I try here first.

  I have a computer desk with another version of vista and intstalled mcafee without problem, my husband has a xp operating system and that are installed without problem.

  Hi, Norton would be the best forum to ask questions on their installation of the product. However, as an alternative, you could always install Microsoft Security Essentials which is free :-).

• Had a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade: I installed on the second machine and now do not know how to activate it.

  A few years back, I bought a laptop Dell 1537 that came pre-installed with Vista and also came with a disc of Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade.  I installed upgrading Windows 7 on the laptop from last year, and everything is fine with it.   Three weeks ago, I used this same disc to upgrade to Windows 7 and installed upgrading Windows 7 to my Dell XPS 430 desktop, with also came pre-installed with Vista.  At this point, I use an inactivated version of Windows 7 on my XPS 430.  With the 30-day grace period, Miss, I'm now unsure of how to properly activate the upgrade of Windows 7 on the XPS 430.  I know that I need a new product key, but what version of Windows 7 buy to get a product key valid: Windows 7 home Premium Upgrade, or Windows 7 Home Premium Full Version?

  Hello

  Since you have already used the Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade disk to perform an installation upgrade on another computer, as you mentioned that you need a new product key to activate on another computer.

  You can either buy a updated version product key or full.

  If you purchase a product key for the version complete and in the future if you need to reinstall Windows, you can use the product key to perform a reinstallation without performing an upgrade installation.

  When you use an upgrade product key and if you need to reinstall Windows, you need to reinstall the Windows Help without using the upgrade product key and again perform an upgrade installation of the installed Windows to activate the system by using an upgrade product key.

  You can also get in touch with Microsoft Customer services for assistance.

• My computer is silent. I think XP audio drivers are corrupted__If I install Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade it will provide new drivers for sound card?

  My computer fell silent months ago after a download. I checked the healthy zone and everything is on and not anywhere in the system. I did a scan of unknown quality and that indicates a problem with the audio drivers. I tried to download new divers from Microsoft.

  Rather than spending all the resources on the Windows XP system, I am considering Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade. Upgrades include new audio drivers which will replace or overwrite the existing problem and make it all work as it should again.

  You can not spend XP as it's a clean install to get W7 on your PC.  To help transfer data documents, use the transfer on the W7 DVD program.

  Before doing that I suggest you download the Advisor to upgrade to W7 from Ms. If your PC passes, then you go to the next step which is download W7 drivers for your video card, sound card, printer, etc. and their storage on a USB for post install W7.

  If your PC isn't at the height (lack of drivers for one or more of your cards), then I would stick to XP. There is no guarantee that Vista drivers work in W7.

  If you stick to XP, download the drivers for specific sound card XP the PC manufacturer's Web site, they can be more up-to-date than those at Ms.

  See you soon,.

• Change from 32-bit to 64-bit with Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade CD

  Hello

  I'm currently on Windows 7 Home Premium 32 Bit.  Is it possible for me to move my Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit using my Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade CD? That is to say: to start my laptop with 64-bit upgrade CD and reformat my system?

  Yes, you can use the same product used to enable the 32-bit version with 64-bit disc.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7

  To learn how to change your BIOS options to boot from the DVD drive, the following tutorial:

  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

• Can I use my Windows 7 Edition recovery disks Home Premium for a clean install on my old Windows XP computer?

  Hello world!  I hope someone can help.

  Can I use my Windows 7 Edition recovery disks Home Premium for a clean install on my old Windows XP computer?

  If this is a recovery from a different computer disk, you are unable to do so.

  In addition, if you were to format the computer, you will need to have a way to reinstall a copy of Windows with a genuine license.

  The best option if you need Windows 7 Home Premium is to buy a genuine license then you can make a custom (new installation).

  Where can I still get Windows 7?
