Windows 7 Ultimate installed under Windows 7 Pro

Accidentally, I installed my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate on Windows 7 Pro.  After installing some updates, a few months ago the "Windows 7 Build 7601 this copy of Windows is not genuine" came on my screen and stayed there.  I assumed that an update checked to see if the key was needed for Windows Pro and found that it was not.  I removed the windows updates I thought that can cause it and that did not help.  I installed updates since then with no problem and I don't think I could if I had an illegal copy of Windows.

Can someone help me with this?

Thank you, Michael

  • Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Vista Ultimate 32-bit upgrade. Installation file will not work. The error is described below.

    I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Everything that I read on Microsoft and elsewhere says that you can go from Vista 32 bit to an operating system Windows 7 64-bit as long as you do the clean install. I'm that far away since I can't even run the installation.
    Maybe nobody knows what could be the problem?

    Hi Hal K,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

    If you are currently running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can only perform an upgrade to another 32-bit version of Windows. Similarly, if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, you can perform an upgrade to another 64-bit Windows version.

    If you want to move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows, and vice versa, you will need to back up your files and then perform a custom of the version of Windows you want to install installation.

  • Impossible to install any program because not supported under Vista, but my PC is Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I try to install Rockwell Automation Studio 5000, but I get an error message saying "Studio 5000 is not supported on Windows Visa without Service Pack 1 or higher". However my PC is under Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and Vista that is covered by the requirements of this program.

    Any ideas?

    What is the version number of Studio 5000 you have?

    You can try to install using the "compatibility mode".

    What is program compatibility?
    Program compatibility is a mode in Windows that allows you to run programs written
    for earlier versions of Windows. Most programs written for Windows Vista are also running Windows 7,
    but some older programs might run poorly or not at all.

  • HP Probook 4520 s installed new hard drive with Windows 7 pro x 64 and drivers - very lag

    Hello

    I had my HP Probook 4520 s for 5 years and a few months ago, he started to become very lag, especially when you use the internet, streaming video and games.

    I thought I had identified the problem as a bad sector on the hard drive and so I bought a new hard drive and upgraded the RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB at the same time.

    When I installed the new hard drive, I couldn't burn an image of my old hard drive (it would stop during the process and was unable to do so because of an error). I used my little HP Windows 7 Pro x 64 operating system DVD and your HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD to install the necessary drivers on my replacement new drive.

    The RAM and the new hard drive seem to be good, however, it's more lag. I tried to use latancy monitors to see if the drivers are the issue. It seems that there is a huge amount of latancy and my CPU is at an almost constant usuage of 100%.

    LatancyMon points in the following drivers: usbport.sys, tcip.sys, acpi.sys, iastor.sys, ndis.sys, dxgkrnl.sys and so on.

    I've seen forums where they will guide you step by step how to determine what drivers are causing latancy. This I could do although he always seems to change drivers who are the cause of the problem and there seems to be a lot of pilots of causing this problem it is so difficult to bring out here that one. In addition, there seems to be no solution to these problems. The only one offered is to update the offending drivers. This does not solve the problem with lag and the latancy yet.

    Any ideas?

    P.s. I really don't know not what is the underlying issue is here so I don't know if this is the right forum to post in. Drivers may not at all be the issue, I spent the last four weeks trying to solve this problem.

  • Problems with windows 7 Ultimate edition for hp officejet pro 8600

    Dear, I installed the HP Officejet Pro 8600 on a Windows 7 ultimate software.  Days later, the scanning application didn't work anymore.  Then I decided to uninstall the software and reinstall it again, but now I can not complete the installation because even when the software recognizes the printer, it can not connect it.

    The printer is connected with an Eth cable directly to a router in the network even when my PC is connected.  The printer is properly connected and works well because I can print from another PC on the same network, but with windows 8.

    Could you help me with a solution? I need to change in my windows 7?

    Thanks in advance.

    My PC is custom built and delivered with Windows 7 Pro OEM installed.  I want to install Windows 7 Ultimate in order to obtain several language and BitLocker.  I know that in a few months, I'll change this PC motherboard (motherboard).

    I know that with the OEM, the product key of Windows 7 license is attached to the motherboard.  So when I change, Win 7 Pro license will be lost.  Since I want to be able to transfer the license of Windows 7 to one MOBO to another, I bought a full commercial version of ultimate.

    My question is this.  To upgrade the Pro OEM ultimate retail, it's just a matter of changing the product key on the screen of the system property and the new product key will launch the installation of missing features to Windows 7 Pro?

    You must use Anytime Upgrade.

    Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, follow the on-screen Wizard, enter the key of Windows 7 ultimate on demand, click on, and then restart your computer when you are prompted. Less than 10 minutes, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and your files and settings retained.

  • Update Windows 7 Ultimate K to Windows 10 Pro (English)

    I'll be able to receive an English version of the free update of Windows 10 if I currently have the Korean version of Windows 7 Ultimate?

    Can I choose another language during the upgrade?

    Cross language upgrades are not taken in charge, the free update will be installed in your local language. In fact, you must uninstall the language packs before the upgrade.

    For example, if the default language of your copy of Windows 7 Ultimate was installed in French and added the English; you need install a language pack for English once installation is complete if you are upgraded to Windows Pro 10. If its 10 Windows Home, you need to install the Windows 10 Pro Pack ($99) to help add features (Windows key + X > Control Panel) and then download the English Language Pack.

    You can also download the. ISO for the language you want, create a bootable copy and perform a custom installation. (Please note this means programs will have to be resettled, and your personal files must be saved.)

  • Install Windows 7 Pro the Dell laptop w / OEM Windows 7 Home Premium

    I have a bit of a MESS! Bought a Dell Latitude Laptop online, which was supposed to have Windows 7 Pro.  When receipt he did 7 Home Premium. Found I had problems with some XP programs running and finished by the seller to send me a genuine disc "Réinstallation DVD Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit," Dell and a key COST and product.  My concern - since they are BOTH the OEM versions of the operating system and a new drive a "Reinstall" rather than an "upgrade" - is that going to reformat my hard drive and destroy all my drivers and the factory pre-installed programs?  Dell installs a number of vital programs to run the webcam, diagnostics, audio, secure data backup, etc., and all necessary hardware drivers, but they do not send copies of disc.  How to backup all this?  And then, everything I need to copy from the system to be able to reinstall the programs?  Seems an almost impossible process... A drive to "Reinstall" OEM gives you an option to simply replace the operating system and everything still leave it alone?  I certainly don't want to start without knowing what I am getting into.

    Would appreciate certainly no help...

    Nancy

    Thanks for your quick response. I'm a little nervous because of all the issues that I had with this laptop - then just one last question for confirmation - if I buy a key to upgrade to 7 Pro AND use the Express Upgrade Wizard, it WILL NOT reformat my hard drive?

    That's right, see how it works:
