Wrong version of Windows 7 for my laptop

Hello, I have Windows Ultimate 7 32 bit for my laptop which has Windows Vista Home Premium. It does not download because it says I need 64-bit. What I can do. I bought it some time ago but never improved because I was fine with Vista. But, now, I would like to upgrade. I can do apart from buying the correct version.

If your computer is running a 64-bit version of Vista, then you have two choices:

  • Do a fresh install of Windows 7 32 bit.
  • Find an installation DVD for Windows 7 64 bit.

Note also that the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate will be possible if you have Vista Ultimate.

  • Installing a version of Windows 7 on a laptop which the CPU speed is 1.73 GHz?

    Hello

    Can I install a version of windows 7 on a laptop with these specs:
    Intel@Celeron @ 530 processor
    (1.73 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 Cache)
    Mobile Inter @ Graphics Media accelerator X 3100
    512 MB DDR2

    Not all laptops have graphics cards that can be removed and replaced with a more recent map / better. If your laptop does not update the graphics card, instructions should be in your manual. You can also consult the web site of the manufacturer of the laptop computer that the information can be displayed there as well.

    Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X 3100: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X 3100 is a (onboard) graphic chip on a mobile Intel 965GM chipset. It is the successor to the GMA 950 and has a fully programmable pipeline (fully supports the Aero Glass and DirectX 10 with latest drivers). The peformance of the X 3100 is much better that the GMA 950, always demanding the modern games does not work perfectly.

  • I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell desktop inspiron one 19

    I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell inspiron one 19 desktop... your help will be very appreciated thanks in advance!

    Here are the usual methods to solve this problem:

    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Logging in as a different admin account and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if create you an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you have activated the account administrator and know its password).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have created such a keyfile).
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    If none of these standard precautions work for you, then the remedy will be painful. Post again if this is the case.

    I have a DV-6 (Ref #WA781UA #ABA) and my hard drive crashed. of course, I never did a recovery disc, so I tried to install a new copy of windows, but now it says my product key is not valid. I guess I got the wrong version.

    Thank you

  • How can I get a license of Windows 7 for a laptop that had 8 pre-installed Windows?

    Hi all, a few weeks ago, I bought a Toshiba Satellite (from retail store) that came with Windows pre-installed on it 8. It did come with any CD or serials, and the only indication of Windows 8 is a small sticker on the back that said simply "Windows 8"and door Windows 8 logo in Brown.»

    Short time (30 minutes) after trying Windows 8 on the laptop, I was fed up with it and all, wiped install Xubuntu instead of Windows 8. And now I'm eager to return to Windows, although not of Windows 8.
    How would it be possible for me to get a key and an image of Windows 7 to install? I don't know where to go, given that the laptop came with no documentation of Windows. I don't have the serial number of the laptop.
    Thank you!

  • can I use the windows key for the laptop broken on a new computer?

    Pre-installed Windows 7

    My laptop came with pre installed Windows 7, but now its dead as motherboard had burntout. So I am planing to buy a new system. I have the product key of Windows from the thumbnail below my old laptop, I use the product key or I have to buy a new copy of windows

    The copy of Windows 7 that came with this laptop is LINKED to this laptop.  It goes with her, even in death.

    If you get the laptop repaired, then you can use the method/support of the manufacturer of the laptop gave you to restore the operating system on that now resurrected system.  If not - you bought the rights for the whole package - not the individual components.

  • User Agent string has wrong version of Windows NT

    I'm on Windows 8.1 and if I go to http://useragentstring.com/ it detects Windows NT 6.2 instead of 6.3. Please see my screenshot here: http://imgur.com/7CbJzop

    This causes a problem. When I visit some pages on Microsoft as http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/tutorial Microsoft detects that I have Windows 8 on my computer and I get a message to upgrade to Windows 8.1. This is false because I am already on Windows 8.1. Please see the screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/jH4UW76.jpg

    I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and the problem persists.

    How can I fix the User Agent string so that it reflects the correct version of Windows.

    Thanks cor - el, but I discovered that the problem is caused by a program called Sandboxie.

    Let me explain. If I start Firefox unsandboxed and go to about: support the NT correct version is displayed (i.e. NT 6.3). However, if I run the same browser sandbox it shows the NT 6.2.

    I started a topic on the Sandboxie forum about this.

    Nevertheless, I would like to thank everyone who took the time to reply on this thread.

    Thank you!!
