Windows 7 install professional help
I want to buy Windows 7 Professional to install on my computer which is now Windows XP Pro SP3. I don't want to lose all my apps, documents, emails etc. so I would really like to do a professional conversion. I don't know how to find a pro that I can trust. I live in the northeast of the PA. Anyone know how to find someone to do it for me? Even though I was a computer geek when I was working I have 9 years retired and did not follow with the field and don't trust myself to do this. Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Windows Update has nothing to do with upgrading a computer. That being said...
Even if your Windows XP computer hardware can support Win7, it must be a clean install of Win7. This means that you will lose all your third-party currently installed applications & have to install again once Win7 was installed.
You can save your current data, however, and then import the backup to Win7.
However, Win7 does not default mail client. If you have been access your e-mail through Outlook Express, you can install Windows Live Mail desktop from Win7, but it would be quite difficult to import your Outlook Express data to it.
If you have been access your email via MS Outlook, however, you would be able to import the data into Outlook on Win7 computer - at least once you've got Outlook 2007 or a later version (again).
TIP: QVC offers some good deals on computers brand new Win7 for as little as $550 right now. It is likely that it would cost at least $250 to pay someone to upgrade your Windows XP to Win7 computer. Then there is the cost of purchase of Win7, too!
PS: There may be a school of computer technology near you where you might be able to get the update done Win7 little, if any, cost per student (supervised). Good luck!

How to recover my product key of windows 8, I installed the windows 10 techniques view without taking backup I need to go back to my windows 8 pls someone help
Hi Carmen,.
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
I understand that you had not taken any prior backup upgrade to Windows 10 Technical Preview and need product key to retrieve Windows 8.
So, first of all, I suggest you to check the product key in email messages when you purchased the license to the product for Windows 8. Once you get the product key, you can create a Windows 8 ISO and reinstall using this product key. See the following article:
To create installation media Windows 8.1
However, if you had bought the system pre-installed with Windows 8. Then, you may need to contact the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) system for Windows 8 discs to restore the older operating system.
Hope this information is useful. Let us know the results for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

Hello
I try to have a system dual boot on a 2012 end iMac 27 inches with Intel i7 under OS X El Capitan v10.11.4 who had replaced running Fusion HD. I created files .iso files to both a .cdr WIndows 7 all-in-one 32/64 BIT DVD and a DVD from 32 to 64 BITS of Windows 7 Professionaland also downloaded the BootCamp5.1.5621 drivers. I created the files .iso on a USB disk ejector WD Passport 160 GB ATA. When I try to use BootCamp to create a WIndows 7 install disk from the selected .iso files, it is said that this version is not 64-BIT and it requires 64-BIT install on my iMac. What Bootcamp, look in the files of la.cdr/.iso it determines that it is not 64 bit?
Please use your product key and download an ISO only 64 bits from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 and place it in your Documents folder. Find a 8 + GB USB Flash drive, which will be in the format / erased by BCA. Run BCA and use the option create USB Installer (it should automatically check the software download option). When you are prompted, point to the ISO. This installer from USB can be used repeatedly.
El Capitan will create Setup with BC6 USB drivers. Please follow install Windows 7 and previous versions on your Mac with Boot Camp - Apple Support and follow steps 1 through 16 in the Windows 7 installation section. Pay attention to step 11 in particular.

Satellite Pro A10 - no valid Windows XP installed
Legitemately bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 laptop, but there is not a valid Windows XP Professional installed. I have the original product key.
Can I download this, free preference?
Hello
How have you noticed that an invalid Windows XP installed?
Usually if you reinstall your laptop with Toshiba recovery disk it s a copy valid XP is already activated and there is nothing to do.
In addition, the product key on the lower side of your laptop belongs to the preinstalled version of Windows XP and t can be used with the other XP discs.

You were then installation updated drivers when the laptop froze and the only thing you could do was power, it works. You then reinstalled Windows 7 again, but can not install other programs or your personal documents.

Have you checked against viruses and malware? Malicious software removal tool
