Windows 8.1 upgrade is not possible because win 8 is not enabled
A few months ago, I bought a new laptop of Toshiba Satallite with 8 Windows preinstalled
Now I want to upgrade Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows. But I don't see the upgrade of Windows 8.1 in Windows store. I think it's because my current installed windows seems not you be activated...
When I try to activate, I get error: 0xC004F074.
I found a solution using the command: SLUI 3 and then enter the product key to activate it, but I don't have a product key! There is no sticker with a product key on the laptop.
Could someone help me with this question, so I can activate my current installation of Windows 8 and upgrade to Windows 8.1?

Hello
I had some problems with an upgrade to 8.1 to win in the past...
Finally, I managed to install the Windows 8.1 update once the laptop has been set back to factory settings.
I'm not sure if this should be done in your case, but where the 8.1 Win update is not possible after installing all the windows updates, you should reset the PC back to factory settings. After that the upgrade should work.

It started a month or two ago when the print spooler has stopped working. 'Systems', or had no dependencies. It turns out that none of the services had dependencies, but everything still worked (except the print spooler). Then, I could not access "system information". I tried to restore to an earlier date, that wouldn't work. Tried to do a picture of Macruim Reflect - no luck there either. My laptop works fine, although slow. Got the printer to work. This lack of progress, I decided I would just upgrade to windows 7, then decided to Windows 8. Me am upgrading of Windows 8 Pro: he went through "preparation" 100% of the screen. On the screen "Get The Latest" I tried 'install updates now' and 'no thank you', the results were the same. On the page "Check your system", he comes back: 'something has happened. Sorry, we're having some difficulty to determine if your PC can run Windows 8. If please close Setup and try again. "He wouldn't have spent so far. The problem may lie in the fact that the upgrade can not see the information system and/or can not say that I am on Windows XP. Is there something I can do for the upgrade to continue?
Hello
Most of the older machines running XP are not compatible with the help of Windows 8.
Follow these steps before you install Windows 8.
Go to your laptop manufacturer's website and check if Windows 8 drivers are available for your make and model laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 8 does not work for you.
Download and run the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant of to see if your machine is compatible Windows 8:

I got an old laptop which is dead. I had installed upgrading to windows 7 ultimate retail on it, and it worked very well.
Bought a new laptop which has Windows 7 sp1, and when I try to do the upgrade anytime, he says that the key is not valid. It has worked before and this IS the commercial version so I should be able to install it on my new computer.How can I get my Windows 7 anytime Upgrade?Try the Express upgrade without being connected to the Internet.
If the problem persists.
Refresh the computer then try the Express upgrade.
New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 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 Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device
For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device
For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device
For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward
For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo
For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.
For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...
For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power
Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"
Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

I'm currently under Windows 7 Home Premium. However, I have the opportunity to get a copy of Windows 7 Professional (Upgrade Version) at a significant discount. My question is simple. Can I switch from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional through the Professional upgrade version?
Please note that I don't want to use Windows Anytime Upgrade to Home Premium to professional. On the contrary, I want to use the disk to upgrade to Windows 7 professional real upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium. Thank you.
Well, I tried it and the answer is no. The only way to upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional is by using Windows Anytime Upgrade.
The price is $ 89.95. Carey Frisch -
Pavilion SLimline s5-1554: can I stop the Windows 10 "free" upgrade does not happen?
I installed upgrading Windows 10 and worked well for a while. I accidentally uninstalled an update to the Intel driver and a few other programs and restarted the computer. He returned and said he had to do anther windows update - when he finished he stops. I turned again once and nothing. 2 fans to run and it sounds like HARD disk drives to start - but is not complete. Answer sheet Virgin screen, no keyboard or mouse. I went through trouble shooting HP together, removed battery CMOS, popped it (got the blue power lights come back), but still nothing else.
Read another forum, I see where the free update to win 10 raises motherboards FRY as Μatx H-Joshua H61, 696233-001 motherboard may not consider them. I wonder if I replace the motherboard, reload the original OS (I already bought the recovery disks from HP that I thought it was my original problem) Windows 8, if everything will be ok.
I want to stop the automatic upgrade to win 10 again will fry the motherboard.
Any thoughts or the next steps for action or other help would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Greetings,
I can barely stomach having a motherboard to fry due to an upgrade of the operating system.
I guess it's possible, and if it is true, maybe it's time for a class action. You can contact MS support but they will blame HP.
Was the Intel one driver graphics driver? Use the integrated graphics card?
If so, you have a slot PCIex16 2.0. Buy a graphics card to modestly low price profile, plug it into the slot.
If you added discreet graphics then remove the card and try the graphics card integrated.
Start the PC. You can get the video.
The motherboard has USB 2.0 supports so pulling the battery and reset CMOS using the jumper pins should correct the problems of USB 2.0.
This nifty little program,never 10, stops Win 10 upgrades.
You must use the same motherboard model, that you now if you want to install Windows using the HP recovery kit. The motherboard must be tattooed by HP or HP Recovery kit will fail.
First try the graphics card option.
See you soon!

Windows whenever the upgrade does not work
Just bought a dell I580 with Windows 7 home 64 bit. I also conquered by the Windows Anytime Upgrade from home premium to windows 7 Professional for $89.00. After I enter the product key, it is trying to install a few minutes then said unsuccessful upgrade. Dell told me that I would need to purchase a full version upgrade Windows 7 Pro for $200.00. I find the commercial version full for less than that. The full version would be Fri doing reinstalls easier. It of what I need to do or is there a better way?
I can find the full commercial version for less than $200.00. The same full version would facilitate reinstalls in the future. If I buy a commercial version full instead of the upgrade and make an entirely new installation, can I use the license for the home premium to Windows 7 on another computer?
Thank you
You like said Dell buy the 'Full' product, a bad deal at best because you will not be able to use the Home Premium version that came with your computer on another PC.
Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

Pavilion 15 laptop: as the Windows 10 laptop upgrade will not close or wake
Hello
Since the upgrade to Windows 10 my 15 Pavilion has acquired two new problems:
- It will not wake from sleep and requires a hard reboot to get it going again.
- When stopped down, the lights of the power and wifi stay and a hard stop via the power button is necessary.
I tried various fixes suggested in the Microsoft forum without success. HP Support says there is no update for my laptop. This issue is driving me crazy and I am very disappointed that HP seem so little to help.
The details of my machine are:
Product number: F8S59EA #ABU
BIOS: F.67-11/26/2014
Can someone please help?
- Download version 9 or 10 of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver.
- Navigate to HP Software and Driver Downloads site (http://www8.hp.com/us/en/drivers.html) to find the last pilot approved for your model. Filtrer filter by version, select Microsoft Windows 8.1 on the menu drop-down. Find the download in the category 'Driver-Chipset' If a pilot of MEI with a version from 9 or 10 number is listed, download. [9.5.24.1790 version 1.5 M (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp66001-66500/sp66228.exe) works for most models.]
- If a pilot of MEI with a version from 9 or 10 number is NOT listed, download the driver appropriate directly from Intel (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=intel+management+engine). [9.5.24.1790 version 1.5 M (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23091/Intel-ME-9-Management-Engine-Driver-for-Intel-NUC) works for most models.]
- Download the Package of troubleshooting Windows 10 "show or hide updates" (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/2/F22D5FDB-59CD-4275-8C95-1BE17BF70B21/wushowhide.diagcab).
- Change the Windows Update Services automatic (delayed start) parameter to the manual.
- In Control Panel, select administrative tools, and open Services.
- Go to Windows Update and double-click it to view its properties.
- Click on stop to stop the service to run.
- Change the Startup Type to manual, and then click OK.
- Install version 9 or 10 of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver. If you receive a warning dialog box about the replacement of a newer version of the software, accept it.
- NOTE: You have NO need to uninstall version 11 before installing version 9 or 10. The presence of a version of the driver is required to 'upgrade' (or demote in this case).
- Run the Windows 10 Troubleshooting Package 'Show or hide updates' and hide the updates of the Intel Management Engine Interface (MEI) driver. (This will block your system automatically reinstall or display of updates for version 11 of the pilot).
- Change back the setting of Windows Update Services to manual automatic (delayed start).
- Restart your computer.
- Rejoice! You can finally sleep and stop again.

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and want to know if I can upgrade to Windows 7 using Windows 7 anytime upgrade [starter to home premium]
original title: Windows UpdateI am running Windows Vista Home Premium and want to know if I can upgrade to Windows 7 using Windows 7 anytime upgrade
No, it will not work.
Windows 7 anytime upgrade: you have Vista or XP currently installed?
If the product you have Windows 7 'Anytime Upgrade' does not allow to move from XP/Vista to Windows 7. You can buy the product at retail of Windows 7 Upgrade not the ' Anytime Upgrade '.
Windows 7 'Anytime Upgrade' is for moving from one version of Windows 7 to a higher version, such as Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional.
