Windows Vista to Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade language problems

• My computer is silent. I think XP audio drivers are corrupted__If I install Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade it will provide new drivers for sound card?

  My computer fell silent months ago after a download. I checked the healthy zone and everything is on and not anywhere in the system. I did a scan of unknown quality and that indicates a problem with the audio drivers. I tried to download new divers from Microsoft.

  Rather than spending all the resources on the Windows XP system, I am considering Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade. Upgrades include new audio drivers which will replace or overwrite the existing problem and make it all work as it should again.

  You can not spend XP as it's a clean install to get W7 on your PC.  To help transfer data documents, use the transfer on the W7 DVD program.

  Before doing that I suggest you download the Advisor to upgrade to W7 from Ms. If your PC passes, then you go to the next step which is download W7 drivers for your video card, sound card, printer, etc. and their storage on a USB for post install W7.

  If your PC isn't at the height (lack of drivers for one or more of your cards), then I would stick to XP. There is no guarantee that Vista drivers work in W7.

  If you stick to XP, download the drivers for specific sound card XP the PC manufacturer's Web site, they can be more up-to-date than those at Ms.

• Lost my "Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade - 32 bit" folder and want to wipe my computer...

  I wipe my Dell Inspiron (1720). It came with Vista in 2007, but I've upgraded to Windows 7 in 2009 using the "Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade - 32 bit" download that was offered to students at the time.

  When I re - install the OS and drivers (using supplied with the notebook backup discs), I would like to re - move to 7. Again, I have my product key for it but cannot find the original file that I downloaded to perform the upgrade. Is there a part of the Microsoft site that I can download this file from?

  If not, is there a way I can format my HDD without lose the BONE?

• Had a Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade: I installed on the second machine and now do not know how to activate it.

  A few years back, I bought a laptop Dell 1537 that came pre-installed with Vista and also came with a disc of Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade.  I installed upgrading Windows 7 on the laptop from last year, and everything is fine with it.   Three weeks ago, I used this same disc to upgrade to Windows 7 and installed upgrading Windows 7 to my Dell XPS 430 desktop, with also came pre-installed with Vista.  At this point, I use an inactivated version of Windows 7 on my XPS 430.  With the 30-day grace period, Miss, I'm now unsure of how to properly activate the upgrade of Windows 7 on the XPS 430.  I know that I need a new product key, but what version of Windows 7 buy to get a product key valid: Windows 7 home Premium Upgrade, or Windows 7 Home Premium Full Version?

  Hello

  Since you have already used the Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade disk to perform an installation upgrade on another computer, as you mentioned that you need a new product key to activate on another computer.

  You can either buy a updated version product key or full.

  If you purchase a product key for the version complete and in the future if you need to reinstall Windows, you can use the product key to perform a reinstallation without performing an upgrade installation.

  When you use an upgrade product key and if you need to reinstall Windows, you need to reinstall the Windows Help without using the upgrade product key and again perform an upgrade installation of the installed Windows to activate the system by using an upgrade product key.

  You can also get in touch with Microsoft Customer services for assistance.

  Hello

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

• Windows 7 Home Premium - 'Upgrade' from 32 bit to 64 bit?

  Two years ago, I used a student contract to purchase an upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7. At the time, I chose to download the 32-bit version and used the product key, I got with this version.

  Now, I wish for a clean install and choose the 64 bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium. My PC seems to be ready, the Compatibility Center Windows says there is no problem with hard-ware. However, because I downloaded from the store, I have only a version of the 32-bit client on the spot.

  I'll be able to run a clean install and use the product key that is currently used with my 32-bit Windows 7 with a downloaded version of the 64-bit client? If so, it is legal to download a generic version of the Windows 7 64-bit client considering I have the product key is legitimate? I can't go back into the store to choose a different download for some reason link any.

  I would like to move to a 64 bit version of Windows 7 without having to repurchase all of the operating system, as it is too expensive for me right now.

  Hello:

  My parents have a notebook HP G60 - 533 CL running Windows 7 Home Premium OS.

  Are you aware of the issues/incompatibilities with Windows 7 upgrade to the latest version of Windows 10 known?

  Are there elements of Windows 7 which does not support the Windows 10 (e.g., audio, video) on this laptop?

  They installed Office 2007 Home and student version.  It will work with Windows 10 yet?

  I've heard talk about Lenovo ThinkPads crashing 10 Windows when the user tries to access its built-in webcam.

  The webcam on the HP G60 - 533 CL did not work properly when the laptop is released, but about a year later, after an update of the driver had been released.

  Are there drivers... for example, printer, screen, touchpad, etc..  ... which should be upgraded so that this laptop work with Windows 10 ?

  Thank you

• Can upgrade you to Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade (again) to Windows 8 Pro and Windows 8?

  I have a laptop originally supplied with an edition of Windows 7 Home Premium OS.  Because of a software problem, I had to upgrade the operating system.

  I bought a DVD of Windows 8 upgrade and did the upgrade.  The switch went a lot, only now, I have been informed that the specifications of the software is compatible on a 8 professional edition window.

  Since I did the install of Windows 8, I can't return/refund this upgrade disc.  But I still need to go to a Windows 8 PRO.

  Can I buy an ANOTHER (only now going to an ordinary Windows 8) upgrade and upgrade to Windows 8 PRO?  Microsoft will allow me to do?  My laptop is now considered a Windows 8 operating system or not?

  Or I have to "reset" my laptop to Windows 7 Home Premium and proceed with the purchase of any upgrade to Windows 8 PRO?

  Does anyone have a solution for me?

  Why the specifications of the software is only compatible with Windows 8 Pro?

  Windows 8 is similar to Windows 7 Home Premium. Both are editions of consumer.
