Windows 8.1 Pro
I just bought an Aspire ZS600 AIO. He came up with the basis of Windows 8.
I had already purchased Windows 8 Pro I have the DVD for. Now with the upcoming release of 8.1 I think that I am entitled to an upgrade on this machine and also with the possessed copy, I have the right to the 8.1 Pro upgrade.
I want to install the Pro version on this machine. I was intending to do a clean install, once the release is out. I think I'll be able to download the ISO file and convert it.
I just received a response from ACER and bottom line seems to be that "leave it alone and stick to the Basic only version and update" they think, perhaps, the drivers may not match and might cause problems?
I'd be happy to hear from the community of your thoughts.
Larry
Personally, I would upgrade to Pro.
There is that one set of drivers I see, 8 64-bit WIndows. No mention of home or pro, or something like that. A set of drivers works on all 64-bit versions.
At the end of the day, it's your computer, you have purchased your own copy of Windows 8 Pro and you want to upgrade to Windows Pro 8.1.
The choice is yours...

HP probook 450 g2 i7: drivers windows 8.1 with windows 8.1 Pro compatibility
I intend to install windows 8.1 Pro on "HP probook 450 G2 I7" but when I went to download the drivers, I have not found windows 8.1 Pro listed in the operating system... I found windows 8.1 so I wonder if 8.1 windows drivers can be installed on a windows 8.1 Pro?
Thanks in advance!Hello;
Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
I read your post on Win8.1 drivers and wanted to help.
For Win8x, the Home and Pro versions only see different features that come with each of two Windows versions.
The drivers for all versions of Win8.1 are the same.
Good luck

Validity Sensor does not not in dv7t - 6 c 00 CTO Quad Edition using Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit
Hello
I have a Pavilion dv7 (dv7t - 6 c 00) CTO Quad Edition (product # A1L77AV) I can't get the validity fingerprint sensor to work after installing Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit from scratch.
Windows 8 drivers that are available for this model do not seem to work. Other drivers Windows 8.1 available in the HP site do not seem to work either.
The unit shows in the management of the computer as a work, I guess by using a Microsoft Driver. The Unit presents itself as "validity sensors (WBF) (PID = 0018)' in the biometric devices topic."
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you
Hello SauveDuro, welcome to the Forums of HP.
I see you are trying to install the drivers for the fingerprint reader on the laptop for Windows 8.1, you've seen questions get this working.
Unfortunately, HP does not drivers for Windows 8.1 for your laptop.
The most I can recommend in this case, check the manufacture of each component for Windows 8.1-compatible drivers. Here's a link of validity, you may be able to get drivers that work for him: http://www.validityinc.com/software/hp/wbf.php.
This can also help you to: Troubleshooting a (Windows 8) fingerprint reader.
Sorry for the inconvenience that this may cause. I hope that something can help you.
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. -

* Original title: upgrade
I want to upgrade to a newer Windows operating system Windows Vista Home Pro 64-bit. What is the recommended procedure? I see that Windows 7 or 8, a free update to Windows 10 is offered. Should I buy 7 or 8 then you spend 10 or just buy 10?
Thank you
Jim
Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.
Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7.
Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

Follow these steps before buy you and upgrade (new installation) of Windows 8.1.

If this is not available, Windows 8.1 not install and work properly for you.
There is a lot of information in this first link from Microsoft:

I am development engineer and my material design of Xilinx Vicado package will not work in the new Windows 10. I said that he can not find running libraries etc.. They use batch to determine if the directories exist etc. Well, I've spent big buck to get the latest version of VMware. I install my OEM of Windows 7 Ultra Pro 64 bit version and install the key software must work. So after you have installed, the activation of my key does not work. I made several suggestions, but it is not supported anymore. Yes big problem so it is not supported, I understand that I watch the news and reading materials. I use Microsoft products since the first Windows 286 and spent a lot of money using your products. So Microsoft is going to fuck me a disable us marine veteran? After paying my bills every month I $168 to feed my son and myself. I may as well cancel all subscriptions and eat food, but I'm 65 years old and that I have to keep my mind active but a brain injury, broken back and I might as well jump off a cliff, but I love my child and myself. So tell me how are you going to fuck me.

KB2939153 Windows update fails on Windows 8.0 Pro x 64 with the error 0 x 80070003
As part of the Patch updates Tuesday, KB2939153 fails to install on Windows 8.0 Pro x 64
Tried install later with the same error message 0 x 80070003 Windows Update has encountered a problem.
So, I downloaded the standalone installer Windows8-RT-KB2939153-x 64.msu, which fails with the error message.
WindowsUpdate.log provides no additional information. Only one line
FATAL error: CBS called error 0 x 80070003,.
How can we get this update of Windows Defender installed?
Kind regards

Running Windows 8.1 (64-bit), previously, I encountered this problem with the previous 8.1 for Windows Update (KB2919355) as well as this one and it was fixed for me by returning the folder of the user of the computer in the registry to the default location (C:\Users). This will be a primary issue for users with SSD drives that have relocated their user files to another hard drive to optimize the space on the main drive. Microsoft should fix this incompatibility.
The key to change is 'ProfilesDirectory', and it is located in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Windows NT > CurrentVersion > profile list
