Windows 7 Upgrade, saying that it is not the right disc
I have the HP Windows 7 upgrade CD of 2009 and I'm trying to install it on my genuine HP laptop. First of all, I inserted the CD that is labeled insert everything first. After that everything was checked, I was then asked to insert the upgrade CD, I did, but then I received a notification that the disc I inserted is not the right disk. The CD I'm insertion is the support for Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade, two CDs have been sent to Microsoft. Is there something I'm missing or is there a way I can work around this problem.
Looking forward to any help, thank you.

You try to upgrade to the wrong architecture.
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. In addition, you can make 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.
My PC running the 32-bit version or 64-bit Windows?

So, to my office, I have a laptop HP under Vista Home Premium x 86. All of a sudden he says he is not enabled. All my attempts to activate it using the code stuck on the PC itself did not work. I need to get this computer to work properly, and I can't risk having a problem with him on the road. My attempts to contact HP only ending with them telling me that they could remote virus scan and it would cost me over $ 100.
I also bought a vista "anytime upgrade" and it won't let me even upgrade the system without the activation code.Help!How to activate Windows 7 or Vista manually (activate by phone)

Things to watch for.
Recently reported several cases of blocked MSDN keys packed with the media looking legitimate. I can not stress enough to save your packaging, media and reception, if you buy software such as this to appeal to the Bank, you bought it and report it to www.microsoft.com/piracy
If you bought a key, with or without DVD or packaging of EBAY, or any other person or seller and this could be a MSDN key because your key has been blocked you can check a few things yourself, if you have received your key with the physical product go to www.microsoft.com/howtotell and check your product, however some counterfeit software are thus convince you may not be able to identify it as such.
To check your PID press the key to victory and the pause at the same time, or system opened via the Control Panel, scroll to the activation section and properties related to computing PID will look something like this 12345-067-1234567-54321, the part that you are interested in is the section to three digits, if it corresponds or is included in one or two digits for the examples below You probably have a MSDN key.
065, 066, 067 for Ultimate, box 220 for Pro and the 230, 231 , box 221 for the premium, there are probably others, but they should be close to those posted.

OEM installed Windows 7 now say that it is not authentic
I had windows 7 on a laptop Samsung including motherboard fried after 15 months. The initial cost is $ 650, but the repair estimate is $ 1100. In order to not wanting another Samsung, I put the Samsung hard drive in a new Dell Inspiron 15. Everything worked fine for a couple of months, but now I get the message that my copy of Windows 7 is not genuine. I have more the Samsung as I sent it to the weeks of the recycler. What should I do?
OEM licenses are linked to it was installed on the original system. Switching motherboards is identified as a new computer and the license authentication will fail.
However, you have also changed the system manufacturer. System of large manufacturers have special licensing agreements that allow them to preinstall Windows on a computer without having to go through an authentication process. Samsung licence key is different from the one issued to Dell (and any other manufacturer). The entrance to the Dell SLIC BIOS will not accept with an active image of Samsung.
If the key is visible on the COA for the Dell label you can try to enter this key in the license dialog. slui.exe 3 in an elevated command prompt should allow you to enter a new key.

My coupon code for my free upgrade says that it is not valid.
I bought the Design Premium Creative Suite 5.5 in the time limits for the free update and received an email telling me what to do, but when I click on the link, it tells me 'Code promotional invalid in this store.' I bought the student/teacher edition, so it's in Adobe for education - Bank of America, but I read all the fine print and he said that those who were included in this promotion, receive email first. Following the directions, I added the upgrade to my cart and it remained the full price to upgrade.
No idea why it won't let me have my update?
I used a different browser I had not spent on the Adobe site with and got through that the use of the commercial bank. Otherwise it is not actually allows you to change the store, because he gets everything right whenever you bought if, regardless of if you are connected or not.

I got this upgrade for the last two or three years. Why is this happening? How can I solve this?
As to why this is happening - you certainly used a (WiseFixer or CSA?) registry cleaner.
I suggest you use any possibility of CANCELLATION to return to a State where the system works, then uninstall it and vow never to reuse such a thing. They are ALL dangerous.
If the Cancel option is not available, try a system restore - if vacuuming has not broken also SR service.

My wife tried to update firefox and since then it will not open. When I click it a window appears and says that I have to finish the upgrade a previous version by restarting. When I reboot nothing changes.

You can also remove active - update.xml, or even updates.xml (stores the history of update).- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Update works not properly)
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
Do a cleaning (re) install and delete the folder of the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current version of Firefox if possible.
- Do NOT remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.
