• Can I add an additional 1 GB of RAM to upgrade my Windows XP 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit?

  I have a gateway Windows XP with 2 RAM slots.  Originally, there were two 256 mg RAM. To increase my RAM, gateway who sent Kingston 1 GB DDR2 memory live extra.  In order to install my XP 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, I need 1 GB of additional RAM.  My questions are the following:

  (1) can I just install another 1 GB of RAM in the housing currently containing one of the original MGs 256 of RAM?  (2) make a DDR2 1 GB RAM module?  The instructions of Kingston show that DDR2 and DDR modules are not interchangeable.

• Windows 7 Professional 32-bit and 64 - bit

  I soon to set up a new unit to Dell with a CPU i7, SSD & a good NVIDIA video card and my client has specifically requested that the operating system Windows 7 Professional 32 - bit be installed on it, due to the fact that it will run only older legacy there applications (except for the 2013 Office, but I will always install the 32-bit version of).  Also the fact that it will deal with only 4 GB of RAM (which isn't a big deal to him), are there any other compelling reason do not install instead of the 64-bit version?

  I wonder if this will affect the overall performance of the operating system based on the way it interacts with the CPU or some such?  (I'm talking about 64-bit here).  Currently, there is little, or even 64-bit available than the average home user programs could (or should) use; There is no any video or even photo editing or any other high activity range, much the processor on the computer.

  In addition, it would save having to install double versions of some of the other common applications, such as Java & IE 10, etc..

  If & when he never goes 'up' for Windows 8, Windows (at this point) or 'Blue', then it might make sense, but it is not simply to use new programs and / or 'great mighty ones' who would benefit from a 64-bit Windows version, as far as I can tell.

  I am open for any compelling reason to go 64-bit in the circumstances (other than the issue of the RAM, which is actually a non-issue) at the moment...

  Apps must be 64-bit to run on a 64-bit application... 32-bit applications work fine in a 64-bit operating system.  As you say, Microsoft introduced the first 64-bit version of Office in Office 2010, but they always recommend running the 32-bit version on a 64 bit OS.

  There are only a handful of reasons why a 32-bit application does not work on W7x64.  For example, the Remote Server 2003 management tools will not work on 64-bit.  There are more than 32-bit applications that do not run in Windows 7 because it's Windows 7 32-bit applications that do not run in 64-bit Windows because it is 64-bit.  After performing on means of Vista they will "probably" also works on Windows 7 as Vista has many of the same requirements and restrictions as Windows 7.

  Here, I would look for the versions he will plan to run and specific applications:

  www.microsoft.com/.../Home

  "Why have a 64-bit OS, if you're only (never) going to run 32-bit programs on it?"

  The best reason?  Right now, he has only to 32-bit applications.  He's going to upgrade to 64-bit applications?  Probably no - one at the same time, probably needs.  Software companies do not feel that they need to write for the 64-bit platform in the near future, so 64-bit applications are not always available for a product, and/or not available when him and his other apps are ready for the jump to 64-bit, in order to have already installed allows just of 64-bit upgrade him that everyone is available and it is ready to be upgraded this app.  Keeping in mind that there is NO upgrade path on-site from 32 bit to 64 bit, a complete reinstallation will be required to move to 64 - bit - potentially a disruptive downtime, re-adusting amount settings and preferences, updates, reinstall programs, etc.  Also, say that it begins maxing out its RAM (max about 3.5 GB for 32 - bit)... an upgrade memory will require a reinstallation of the 64-bit above all more memory will be used.  With 64-bit, he can throw all memory system will support her with only a reboot to install the memory in the system.

  My thought: if it will work on Windows 7 x 64, and it is a solution to medium and long term, there is no reason to not use it.

• Can I switch from Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit?

  I wanted to basically triple - check the compatibility of my laptop current in what concerns the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.

  As a student, I can get windows 7 professional 64 bit for £30. Their moment I'm running a 32-bit version of vista Home premium, and I wanted to confirm my laptop is up to running a 64-bit operating system, and that the upgrade from a 32-bit version of Vista to a 64-bit Windows 7 version is also possible.

  I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, and it is said that everything should be correct regarding my hardware specifications.

  The results of the 64-bit Upgrade Advisor version:

  -"Your graphics card supports Aero de Windows interface.
  -Processor: 2.1 GHz
  -3.0 GB of RAM (I know it's 4 GB but 32-bit vista can not handle the truth)
  -80.7 GB free on C:

  The consultant warn me that I'll have to do a clean install, rather than an upgrade. I'm not worried about it, I can back up my files to an external hard drive.

  What I want to know is, I will certainly be able to upgrade Vista Home Premium 32 bit to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, with the upgrade kit here http://store.digitalriver.com/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=DisplayHomePage&Locale=en_GB&SiteID=msshgb at the bottom of the page?

  Thanks for your help.

  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.

  Upgrade paths:
  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. Also, you can make the 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. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com

• Download and install Windows 7 Professional 32-bit

  I ve bought a 4730 HP's Probook s with a Windows 7 Professional 64 pieces preinstalled.

  I want to downgrade to a Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. How can I do?

  Thank you

  Hello

  This is an option that you can use.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the activation code on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  First, click on the Start Menu, open computer and double-click Local C drive - you should see a folder called swsetup.  This will contain all the driver installers and almost every program to install the software for your laptop - support this until an external support/device.

  You can create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( it must be the OS exactly the same as originally supplied with your laptop, but the 32-bit version ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

  Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• install windows 7 Professional 32-bit

  I have a laptop hp compaq 6730 b 3 GB ram 320 GB drive hard windows 7 Professional 32-bit while I was wondering if I can format the hard drive and get rid of the full operating system and then buy a drive and install because ive heard I need a previous version of windows like vista or xp until I can do a fresh install of windows 7 is it true? or can I buy a disc and install it

  New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

• Can we use this product key on the back of the laptop for the activation and the windows 7 Professional 32-bit to windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade?

  I have a laptop HP originally shipped with windows 7 32-bit professional. Now I want to upgrade to windows 7 professional 64 bit. I don't have with me installation disk. So I thought that it is possible (and legal) to resume an installation of windows 7 professional 64 bit disc from a friend and use this product key on the back of my laptop computer to activate windows after the installation of 64-bit? I'm a bit confused.

  NOTE: This sticker on the laptop has windows 7 pro oa, and a product key to 25 digits (xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx) written on it.

  In addition, the product ID in the information system in the control panel is OEM.

  Yes, you can use the product key located on the COA sticker with a full retail version or the version upgrade Windows 7 Professional 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.

• installed memory of Windows 7 Professional 32 bit - 4 GB ((Mo 935 usable)

  I have problem with my hp pavilion g6 series.

  can someone give good solution.
  Thank you
  Sikandar

  Hi Sikandar,

  Let us work together to solve this problem.

  This is expected behavior on computers that are running Windows 7. The reduction in available system memory depends on the configuration of the following:

  ·        The devices that are installed in the computer and the memory reserved by these devices

  ·        The ability of the motherboard to manage memory

  ·        The version of the BIOS system and settings

  ·        The version of Windows 7 that is installed (for example, Windows 7 Starter Edition does support 2 GB of memory installed.)

  ·        Other system settings

  I ask you to follow the steps and the instructions in the following article:

  Usable memory may be less than the memory installed on Windows 7 computers

• Windows 7 Professional 64 bit constantly "not responding".

  As requested by Adam - Support Engineer starts a new thread to an old unsolved problem. Windows 7 Professional 64 bit constantly freezes showing a message "no answer." The gel can last from 10 seconds to a minute about. It happens with all the applications on my system, including but not limited to: IE, Windows Explorer, Notepad, All Office 2007 Pro (MS Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.), MS Calculator, MS Solitaire, Editpad, Acrobat Reader,... I tried all of the suggestions I found that applies to my system. Nothing has worked. I reinstalled Windows at least half a dozen times.

  System Specs:
  MB - ASUS M4A79T Deluxe rev 1.02 G
  BIOS - worm 3205
  Processor - AMD Athlon (TM) II X rev 4 965 RB - Black edition C3
  Video - ATI Radeon HD 5870
  RAM - 8 G OCZ3G1600LVAM2G
  NIC - Onboard Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller
  Sound - Onboard Realtek 1200 8 channels high definition
  HDD (SATA) - Boot - Seagate ST3100528AS
  (SATA) HARD drive - backup - Seagate ST3160812AS
  DVD - LG GSA-H55L
  DVD - LG GSA - 4163B

  I forgot to update this. If anyone is interested the problem was hardware related. Have 2 players of DVD IDE was originally the system sometimes does not detect or lose contact with one or two hard drives. I've had the same 2 DVD connected to an another MB before the upgrade and they work very well together. I changed the old to a dvd SATA and that solved a problem. Don't know if this is a bios or Windows issue. The second problem was that the video card cannot have been well installed. This MB has a foam strip along the Panel of e/s that I really had to compress in order to align the screw holes in the Mo with those in the case. This fact is difficult to insert the cards, because there is not much space for the mounting bracket slide between the Mo and the case. I had to really force to get it in. To make sure that the video card was sitting properly, I loosened the screws MB, installed the card and then tighten the screws. This also gave permission, that I need to insert a USB 3.0 card later without having to fight with him.

• EXTREME slowing windows 7 professional 64-bit response time, possibly problem driver network adapter? Help, please!

  I have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed on a computer, I built

  Data sheet:
  Processor Intel i5 750 (stock clocked & stock cooler)
  Card mother Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3P
  G. Skill Rip jaw DDR3 1333 RAM (standard timings)
  Western Digital 640 GB SATA HD
  Card EVGA 8800 GS SC Video
  Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE sound card
  Powersupply Coairsair 650W
  Samsung SATA DVD writer

  My problem is, after I started and had my computer running for a significant amount of time (30 minutes to an hour), I loose full internet connectivity and the response time for any action I'm trying of the preform is from 30 seconds to 5 minutes.

  This problem occurs almost every time my computer is started for a significant amount of time, and it's extremely annoying.

  First Firefox, Google chrome, or internet Explorer stops receivers internet connectivity (because it is not sailing to any web page) but still related reports.

  (during this time and on my computer don't report any anomaly, IE CPU utilization / ram uses / temperature are amounts all acceptable)

  I usually try to close my browser (s) web, but its reports "not responding" and I cannot close or even end the process or the process tree, so it runs as a process. From there a program or a click I do I try to run either doesn't work or takes 30 seconds to 5 minutes to register if they register at all.

  Programs I all ready have running continue to run, IE Vuze, WindowsMP, Zune software, openoffice. But once that I close them I can't reopen.

  Any program I try to open starts a process in the Task Manager but it not to start a program or actually run, and I can't used to finish the tasks that do not work properly.

  If I try to shut down windows, it takes a minute or so to begin to disconnect, then he sits on the "logging" off the screen until I use the power switch to kill the system.

  I suspect that it may be a problem from my network card driver (Controller Realtek PCIe GBE Family, latest version downloaded directly from the Gigabyte website for my motherboard) because the question almost always starts when my internet stops working. However, this may be 2 combined numbers.

  I had this problem and I thought it was because of an installation of bad windows 7 so I erased the hard drive and did a complete new installation, but the problem is back!

  I changed my routers settings to give me a fixed IP address to dismiss questions here. All the other computers in my House have access the internet without interruption during my problems. And no other computer in my house has similar problems.

  I reinstalled the network once drivers without success.

  I would like to address the downturn extreme Windows 7 after half an hour or so if possible because I have other NICs lying there if the problem comes from the network card.

  I'm pretty computer savvy and I've exhausted all my ideas, so any notice are useful! Thank you

  OK, so I think that the slow issue is resolved now. I blame intel speedstep, while part of my problem is fixed.

  Internet connection problems still remain.

  I ran my computer in safe mode with network for about 2 hours. When I booted in safe mode, everything was fine, internet connetion worked on download and upload at full power. I let it sit for an hour or two in safe mode and I came back and there is no internet again, as usual. All my browsers (internet explorer, my main browser firefox and chrome) refuse to function / load anything and their work will not end in the Task Manager. The device says it all works and it (network adapter) said I have a connection, but I am squatting me on my browsers or any other uses of the Internet. This test will run on a network interface card that I installed, with drivers. I did him wrong with shooting my motherboard cable network and its software driver port. This new card gives the same result, so I think now I know that this issue has nothing to do with my physical port or its drivers.

  The only things I can think that it either now are either:
  my router
  However, all the other computers in my house (3 of them, 1 win XP), 1 Win 7 64 bit pro, 1 Ubuntu and my Xbox 360 not having this problem and works perfectly

  or

  Something inside windows 7 that control the browsers or manages connections,
  I think it's most likely due to the fact that my browsers have problems in the Task Manager / they do not work properly

  All reviews are useful,

  Thank you!

• Dual monitor boot problem with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit after installation of any graphics program like a game.

  I have built this platform with the help of the owner of a store of 4 cumputer teir 2 years ago. We initially put Windows Vista 32 bit on the system to Vista 64 bit unstable atm. For 2 years, the computer worked like a dream. Last week I made a clean wipe of windows vista and windows 7 professional 64-bit installed. The system has two monitors. The primary monitor is a sony bravia with 26 "led and secondary for watching movies is that a 55 '' led Samsung 1080 p 240 Hz. The graphics card is a geforce GTX 295 nividia. It has 12 GB of Ram and the CPU is an i7 965 @3.20.

  The problem I have is this. After the installation of any game average to work with windows 7, the screens to reset their resolutions automatically more than a few times as they are confused. Sometimes, I have to return the screen to its correct resolution after installation in full. Most of the games and then run fine. After installing the game or any game designed for win 7 startup of computers is all messed up for the monitors. After starting hand 26 "sets its resolution and then after about a second 30 pause the computer makes the sound (the double) that it is resolutuons to reset monitor again? After that this second reset about 1-2 minutes the computer is good to go, unless it sets the res evil. The problem is the computer has never done that with vista and it is very annoying say the least. It still freezes the installation of some games. The only way to resolve what I found is the restoration of the system. The computer starts normally and screen ground is defined once she has always been. The only problem is when you install another game, the problem is their new. This problem is worse in some games.

  The latest nvidia drivers have been installed. There is no conflict in the device with the exception of an old printer Manager. The two comes is set to 60 hertz. I searched all over the internet and there seems to be a problem with windows 7 without solution. I am at a loss. Any other information that you need let me know and I'll post it. Thank you!

  Hi ancientone618,

  It sounds almost as if there is a Windows update that is in conflict with your NVIDIA Driver Installer.  I would say to disable automatic updates of Windows to see if it might help:

  Best regards

  A.C. Dutta

  Hi Johanna,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I understand that you can not use the USB in Windows 7.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely help you with this

  1. you get any error message?

  2 have you tried using different USB ports?

  3. any other USB key works on the computer in question?

  4. do the USB works on any other computer?

  5 have had any changes made to the computer before the show?

  Please follow the methods.

  Method 1:

  Run the Microsoft fixit for the link.

  Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

  Method 2:

  As all devices have same also have USB device associated drivers. Appropriate sometimes drivers not detected after initial installation so reinstalling the drivers can fix the problems.

  You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

  (a) click Startand then click Control Panel.

  (b) click system and Maintenance, click System, and then click Device Manager.

  (c) Note if the control panel is in Classic view, double-click Systemand then click on Device Manager.

  (d) If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

  (e) in Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
  Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

  (f) repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

  Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

  We would be more than happy to help you if the steps above did not solve the problem.

(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.
