• Re: Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 "Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD" upgrade

  We have a Satellite Pro A300 - 2C4 (bought on 23-11-09) that came with Vista Business 32-bit installed, but has been downgraded (using the provided diskette) to Windows XP due to the demands of corporate network.

  When Windows 7 became available, I bought the DVD to upgrade to Windows 7 Toshiba provided so that if the company decided to upgrade to the new operating system, we could do it on this laptop.

  That's what I tried recently to discover that we can't do as the DVD is for Win Vista upgrade Windows 7 Pro. What is the best way to upgrade without having to buy another drive to upgrade. I have a set of recovery disks for an another Toshiba SatellitePro A300 - 2 4 which was bought about 2 months before this one. These were created using the Toshiba recovery software before any changes have been made on the laprop. Would I be able to restore the system to its state of Windows Vista using these disks and then use the Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD to make the upgarde?

  Suggestions or recommendations would be greatly received.

  This upgrade package offered by Toshiba is upgraded from Vista to Win7. So if you want to use it, you must install Vista recovery image at first.

  After that, you can upgrade pre-installed Vista to Win7 following the Toshiba s implementation instructions.
  I did the same thing my Qosmio X 300.

  If you cannot use created recovery disc either s order Toshiba Vista recovery disk or (perhaps the best solution) install the clean version of Win7. A300 is fully supported for Win7 and you can download all the necessary drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utilities.

• Can I use an existing Windows 7 Professional Upgrade DVD for Windows 7 Professional upgrade using the keys I bought instead of loading down?

  I've updated three of my computers from Windows XP Professional for Window 7 Professional using kits of DVD I bought. I have three sets of Window 7 professional DVD in my possession. I bought a new license [facility provided by Microsoft key] for my ThinkPad. I ordered also accompanying the DVD, which I imagine will happen next week. Rather than wait for the DVD, can I use one of my existing 32 Bit Windows DVD for installation to upgrade with the new license key that I got from Microsoft?

  No problem - but you might want to wait, if your existing DVD is the original version, because a new will have SP1 integrated, so it'll even some hassles :)

• XP Professional x 64 Edition for Windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade. The best way?

  Hi you all, experts,

  I want to spend my edition of Windows XP Professional x 64 (legit) to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I don't think I need additional options in 'Ultimate', but I need, I am sure, XP mode that comes with "7 Professional".

  Maybe I should mention at this point that I am a member of the program saved Reacondicionador, until you feel that I was fully authorized to "renovate" my own PC.

  First of all a question about Windows 7 itself: -.

  As I said, I need to be able to run certain programs that have been written for XP. The expression "run several Windows XP programs in Windows XP Mode (separate download) company" in "features" means that I have to pay extra for this option? If Yes, how and where to go?

  Is there a reason why my 2D design program which works perfectly under XP Pro x 64 (WOW64) should not be running in the above "Windows XP Mode"?

  Furthermore, I believe that I have several choices on how how to get 'XP' ' 7'.

  1) "OEM", the less expensive but, I understand, once installed on a clean hard disk only, that is all. End, end of story! What should I do if my motherboard fails and needs to be replaced? Can I get a replacement license or I have to buy an another OEM?

  2) 'Upgrade' which I believe will overwrite an existing operating system (matter if it's XP or Vista?) and install "Windows 7". Here are all my existing files maintained? If this is not the case, can I 'restore' to a 'Backup' created by XP?

  3) "Retail", the more expensive but, I understand that, can be transferred or installed on a PC refurbished, although it is only has a license valid on a PC at the same time. Is there a difference between "Retail" and "Upgrade"? Can I use one over the other? If so, why? Is there a difference?

  4) authentic software. Is it possible that I can know without having the product in my hands, or installed on my system, whether or not an article supposed to be "Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64 bit" is actually authentic. Is there a relevant question, can I ask which would identify a fake before I part with my money?

  Thanks in advance for any help you are able to offer.

  Best regards

  No, Windows Virtual PC with Windows XP Mode is free for users of Windows 7 Professional. To learn more:

  Is there a reason why my 2D design program which works perfectly under XP Pro x 64 (WOW64) should not be running in the above "Windows XP Mode"?

  Personally, I've used several graphic programs 2D and 3D even on Windows XP Mode, include The Print Shop, PhotoDraw 2000 v2 and they work very well to this topic. The article I linked to provide instructions how to publish your applications, you can use alongside Windows 7 applications.

  Furthermore, I believe that I have several choices on how how to get 'XP' ' 7'.

  1) "OEM", the less expensive but, I understand, once installed on a clean hard disk only, that is all. End, end of story! What should I do if my motherboard fails and needs to be replaced? Can I get a replacement license or I have to buy an another OEM?

  No, you will need to purchase a new license if your Windows 7 OEM System Builder License fails. You could of course try install and reactivate the components on the new motherboard before buying a new license, because some people have been 'lucky' get it reactive but is is not a guarantee. If the motherboard is replaced based on a defect or warranty, you should be able to reactivate the replacement motherboard.

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  2) 'Upgrade' which I believe will overwrite an existing operating system (matter if it's XP or Vista?) and install "Windows 7". Here are all my existing files maintained? If this is not the case, can I 'restore' to a 'Backup' created by XP?

  If you do not want to restore Windows XP someday, I suggest that you backup before migrating to Windows 7.

• Mr President, I put in my window 7 Professional which I totally forgot the admin password, I'm not able to use my computer, is it possible to recover the admin password?

  Mr President.

  I got the admin password in my window 7 Professional which I totally forgot, I'm not able to use my computer, is it possible to recover the admin password?

  There is no way to retrieve a forgotten password. However, you can do this:

  1. Set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
  2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
  3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
  4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.
  5. Select 'Repair' when prompted.
  6. When you are prompted, select System Restore.
  7. Configure Windows to a point until you have changed the password.
  8. Plan ahead a little and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare emergency House key.

• Windows 7 Professional is not compatible with the WPS ENABLED?

  Hi all:
  I have a desktop (HP Pro 3500 Series) with Windows 7 Professional and another laptop (HP COMPAQ CQ58) with Windows 8, 1 pro.
  My internet provider is Jasstel, and it worked perfectly in my two computers.
  I decided to activate the WPS of the router (comtred AR 5387un) and they started the problems. The laptop with Windows 8, 1 runs normally.
  The desktop with Windows 7 without work and it does not allow the connection to the Internet. The generated error is security configuration, it is incorrect.
  I erased the net so that I have again the password. You ask that I introduce the safety key from the net. I introduce the key (which she's right, because it works in another computer), and he told me that I should he Nail or the sentence of the password is not right and there is not the case.
  The only thing you change is the operating system. Windows 7 is not compatible with active WPS?
  I thank any help no I don't know what to do.

  A cordial greeting.

  Text of the Decree No. presidential East I translated it with a commercial translator. I am ignorant of the quality of the translation. Excuse me, otherwise it is all about what is good who do.

  Hello colambrero,

  This model is a class computer business and would be better asked in the forum of the Business Enterprise community.

  Here is the link to the appropriate section. http://h30499.www3.HP.com/T5/business-PCs-Compaq-Elite-Pro/BD-p/BSC-271

  I offer you my thoughts.

  I was wondering why you have decided to activate the WPS? It's easier to connect wifi devices but also creates security problems.  WPA2 with a good password is more reliable in my opinion.

  In addition, your Wifi adapter must be compatible WPS and I can't confirm if your model has one or not (I assume it does).

  Windows 7 that has Service Pack 1 installed? SP1 has a fix for problems with connections WPS for Windows 7.

  Personally, I would consider not not using WPS for security issues.

  Here is an article to example of Sophos Security explaining why not to use WPS.

• Can I download Windows 7 Professional for free and use the product key I have?

  I was WONDERING IF SOME COULD HELP OR POINT ME IN THE RIGHT of WAY TO GET a DOWNLOAD FREE Windows 7 Professional, I ALREADY HAVE THE PREMIUM AND I WANT PROFESSIONAL GRADE

  I never said that I won or purchased key I had when I had pro on my other computer when needed to get a new I sold my old so if you want to continue to help me it's cool if noit I understand

  If the computer you sold is supplied with Pro pre-installed on it, it would be an OEM license and cannot be used on another computer.

  If it was an upgrade of retail full version and you delete or Pro to him before you sold the other computer, you would not be able to use Pro either again on another computer.

  The only way that you can reuse the activation key again is if the key is not in use on another computer and is a commercial version.

  You also do not need a disk to upgrade to Home Premium to Pro either. All you have to do is upgrade from Home Premium to Pro by making an Express upgrade that only requires an activation key.
