• Can I use Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Family Pack (3 users) to install Windows 7 Edition home premium 64 on a desktop computer running the OEM version of Windows Vista Home Premium 32?

  My desktop system is an Acer E700 Intel Quad Core 2.4 GHz with 4 GB of RAM and 1 Gig video running Vista Home Premium OEM 32 version. I plan to upgrade the hard disk of 1 tetrabyte before upgrading the OS.  If so, how should I do this?  I have to restore the backup to disk to the new disk before update for Window 7 64?

  My second office is already running Vista Home Premium 64 so this upgrade using the family must be right before correct?  Or do I need to backup to the subject programs before moving to Win7 64?

  Thanks in advance.

  You will need to do a reformat to perform installation and you reinstall the applications.  There has never been a way to upgrade from x 86 to x 64.  You will need to do is use your x 64 media to install Windows 7 on new hard drive, use your product key on the certificate of authenticity located on the side of the Acer desktop computer.  You will always be the OEM license terms, as you install the same Windows SKU.  Product keys are interchangeable between x 86 and x 64, but you will probably need to call to activate Windows after installation - usually the Internet activation does not work on current versions of Windows using the seller great modes of action.

• How long Microsoft will send updates of security for Vista? Office 2007?

  How long Microsoft will send updates of security for Vista? Office 2007?

  With all the hype about "the end of XP" I wonder how long Vista will continue to be updated with the Microsoft security updates? Already I replaces my two XP PC with Windows 8.1, but my wife still loves its Vista and wants to stick with it. She also and like Office 2007 and I wondered about this as well. Microsoft Security Essentials runs on it and has been without problems so far. How long she will be able to use this computer until it is not the choice like me with my XP PC? (I miss you)

• How to uninstall Windows 7 32 bit or get the clean install of Windows 7 64 bit to work properly.

  Today, I bought and installed windows 7 32 bit as an upgrade from vista 32-bit, shortly after I spoke to my friend and he told me that I could have used the disk for 64-bit and Windows 7 64 bit instead, the problem now is that I can't find a way to remove windows 7 32 bits using other methods I've seen here as the file Windows.old, it isn't here. Also I cannot perform a clean Windows 7 32-bit to windows 7 64 bit installation because when I insert the disk it says that I need to boot from the disk, so I tried then whenever he says failed to load. IM fine with doing a clean install and losing what I have, because I have them the settings and files saved externally already so no need to save again.

  Thank you very much

  Looks like you're stuck with a clean install of Vista's original support for start.

• Download Windows XP for free if I can do a 'Clean Install' of the system?

  "flatten and rebuild" process for Windows XP?

  How can I go about the process of 'flatten and rebuild' for Windows XP?  Download Windows XP for free if I can do a 'Clean Install' of this system?

  If you have a computer from a "direct OEMS" (e.g., Dell, HP, etc.), it is without doubt a restore hidden on the hard disk partition.  How access and use this feature differs between manufacturers, so again you must call the computer manufacturer or visit its web site.

• Where can I download Windows Installer for Vista service pack 2 32-bit?

  Am I right in thinking that it is not possible to download Windows Installer for SP2 -

  I watched a lot of messages, and it doesn't seem to be any solution except returning to SP1.

  I can't install Skype on my computer without MSIServer.

  Hmm.

  Try uninstalling SP1 and SP2 and reinstalling SP2

• Where to get the Windows vista recovery disk to do a clean install?

  Where can I get the windows vista for any new installation disk. Both my recovery disk & HDD crashed. I had windows vista preinstalled.

  Hello

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  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.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
