Windows xp upgrade to 8

Can I download the iso of windows 8 and then create the installation media, therefore, that supports this information to microsoft, I can't.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2780338

I am runnig windows xp 32-bit.

You can download whatever it is on XP (including iso images of windows 7/8/8.1) as much as you know where to find the download from and you do not exceed the limits imposed by your ISP (or dept IT if you have one). I think it's your interpretation of the title that leads to confusion, it is poorly drafted...

Title of the page...

"Windows XP users are unable to download and burn an ISO on a DVD or USB for Windows 8 Media Player"

IMO it reads better...

"Windows XP users are unable to burn a downloaded ISO on a DVD or USB for Windows 8 Media Player"

  • HP Pavilion & "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor came across a problem.

    Windows 7 would work on my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6132eu)?

    So I used "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" of the Microsofts. Which caused the error "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor stumbled into a problem that your scanning devices. Upgrade Advisor needs to be able to scan your devices to determine whether your computer is capable of running Windows 7 ".

    The laptop is probably not good enough for Windows 7, why?

    I assumed, the Upgrade Advisor would tell me, what pieces of hardware is / are not specific to Windows 7.

    In a forum Technet, say, the Adviser is blocked by some HP hardware. Which?

    Best regards, Willem

    My problem has been resolved.

    Previously, the problem with "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor BETA.

    I waited two months - now, I executed the Adviser again, resulting in "an important upgrade".

    And guess: update Advisor works like a rocket, finishing with a nice report with minor problems.

    So I think that the problem was a "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" - problem - not a HP computer laptop-problem.

  • Satellite U400-15B - noisy fan after Toshiba WIndows 7 upgrade

    Hello world

    Question 1:
    Last week, I got my Windows 7 Upgrade DVD from Toshiba. I'm leaving has upgrade and after 5 hours, the upgrade was complete. I have encountered a problem that the automated driver installed on the endgame wrong on the update of the BIOS because it is trying to write the backup file of the BIOS on the DVD. After a lot of pressure on the keys, I managed to get the installation to carry and then did the BIOS manually updated later. This succeeded and it updated to V4.80.

    Since the update of the BIOS, the fan noise is much stronger. I noticed it's from the fan that is to the right of the envelope, I guess it is the CPU fan. The fan that blows air on the left side of aeration wors as usual. Any suggestions? Should I get the BIOS, if so, how can I restore from the file BIOS.bak WinPHlash is?

  • Windows 7 upgrade failed - disk HARD recovery does not work

    I just received my Windows 7 upgrade disc, followed the procedure and he managed to upgrade Vista 64 bit for Windows 7 32 bit! Some drivers also seem to, were charged more than once.

    I tried to do a system restore from the recovery of HARD drive partition - and it won't!

    Can someone, please?

    Hello

    Drive HARD recovery does not work because Win 7 ran the Boot Manager and maybe the HDD partition has been affected.

    I guess you want to roll back to Vista preinstalled Toshiba.
    I think in your case, only the recovery disc will help you.

  • Qosmio X 300 - 15U - key product for Windows 7 upgrade disc

    Hi all
    first post here :)

    I have a Qosmio X 300 15U and just bought DVD update for the operating system: to Vista64 for Windows 7 (home premium).
    I got it by Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade site.

    I installed the upgrade and it works fine, so far.
    Only possible problem for the future, is that I can't find product key label Windows 7 attached to the case of paper (probably lost) DVD
    I have the DVD (for other series, almost...)

    Anyone know if it is possible to make the Toshiba support, send my old Windows 7 key product or a new (only in the case of reinstall...)
    It also appears that Microsoft has validated my install via their tool (WGA, I think)
    I have to go back to using MS (paid), for such a (simple, for me) case?
    Hope not.

    Thank you very much.

    Bye,.

    Diego

    I don't know if Toshiba can send you a new label productkey, you must call the assistance service. But to find your product, you need a key research tool.
    Try [link: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/productkeysactivation/tp/topkeyfinder.htm] for a list of these programs.

  • Where's my Windows 7 upgrade Kit?

    Hello

    I ordered my Kit to upgrade to Windows 7 in February
    and still can not get it

    I tried to e-mail sent to [email protected]

    but no more of this service is not available

    Web site: www.toshibawin7upgrade.com does not work.

    So I have a few questions:

    Where is my Windows 7 upgrade Kit and why they get my money back and is unable to make a delivery to my home in the Ukraine?

    Hi Buff

    I'm sorry to hear you are still waiting for order upgrade kit.
    You will not be happy with my comment, but I must say that it is user forum and no one here will be able to offer you help or answer your question.

    Try to contact Toshiba s hotline in your country and ask for help. Maybe they can help you with that.
    If you have received a confirmation e-mail from Toshiba try also to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider. They have good contacts to Toshiba and I hope they can help you about this.

    In any case, I hope it will be get classified as update kit soon.

  • Windows 7 upgrade, keyboard filter

    I have a dv5-1150us, trying to upgrade Windows Vista 64 for Windows 7 64. I installed the following driver for the quick launch buttons:

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp44001-44500/sp44135.exe

    Exit the: 2009-07-15
    Version: 6.50.3.1

    I run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, it indicates that the system is clean and can be upgraded. I then run the actual setup, and it does not level because of "keyboard" incompatible driver. From what I've read 6.50.3.1 is the latest driver and it should work.

    Any ideas? Should I uninstall the quick launch buttons first, do the upgrade and then reinstall under Windows 7?

    Thanks for any help.

    Yes, uninstall QL, install Win 7 and then install the latest QL from your page drivers HERE

  • Qosmio F50-126 not supprted for Windows 7 upgrade?

    I get really angry with Toshiba and Windows 7 upgrade option.
    I'm really excited about the upgrade of my Qosmio F50 - 126 to Windows 7 from Vista Home Premium.
    But after doing a little research on issues related to the upgrade, I burst into anger.

    I went to this link [http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9902P50000R01.htm] to check if my phone is supported, but because I paid a lot of money for it I have it MUST have.

    But guess what... IT IS NOT!

    In addition to this... It says on the website that the notbook not mentioned will get "limited support"!
    WHAT? my 1999 MACHINE VA GET LIMIT dollar taken in CHARGE for WINDOWS SEVEN!

    That I am, I guess to do... buy another Toshiba or sue to get the money and buy a new one?
    Does that mean I can't run windows 7 will be of all drivers runnin? WHAT SHOULD I DOOO DARN?

    Hi mate

    Guess what? I have an older A210 home
    I installed Win 7 on it and everything works fine!
    As you can see it the A210 is not listed as a supported series Win7, but it should be a serious reason does not install a Win7 on it?

    I didn t find official drivers on the driver Toshiba page but I could perceive my own hand, I used tools of free hardware diagnosis, which helped determine the installed devices
    I took the time to learn all the drivers, but it wasn't a big problem

    Thus, even your laptop is not listed in the page, you will be able to use Windows 7 and will be able to collect the necessary drivers

  • Windows Anytime upgrade to install Win 7 Pro on NB550D

    Is it safe to use Windows anytime upgrade to install Windows 7 Professional on a NB550D?

    I ask because it is available through the start menu, but the representative of Toshiba at Insight UK said it might void the warranty if you did! But then they mantioned Atom processors so I think they are just a little stupid maybe...?

    The reason for the upgrade is that we want netbooks on the field.

    Thank you

    Charles

    Isn't about 20% cheaper to buy OEM W7 Pro that do an upgrade? May be entering the new product key on the screen at any time to upgrade will automate the upgrade rather than installing USB etc.
