View 9 Replies View RelatedAnytime Upgrade Not Working
Feb 27, 2009For a recently purchased PC, am considering purchasing a "Windows Anytime Upgrade" from Home Premium 64 to Utltrimate 64. Search of these forums indicate that there have been problems with this upgrade. But, could not find many such posts after late Summer of 2008. Has anyone done such an upgrade withing the past 2-3 months, and if so, were any problems encountered? SP1 came pre-installed, and some of the early 2008 "problems encountered" posts mentioned that SP1 was not on the Upgrade CD. Can anyone confirm that SP1 is now on the Upgrade CD?

Dec 27, 2008im new here so dont be harsh but last night i decided to format my pc, so i formated it and tried to reinstall vista, the reinstallation worked fine but then it said i had to have a old version of windows for me to activate, because its an upgrade version. i then formated AGAIN and tried to clean-install XP so i could then upgrade to my vista but during my reinstallation of xp it stopped working. this is where it may get confusing haha, after the first part of the xp install it restarts (the first part meaning where it formats and copys all the files to memory) but just after it restarts it comes up with the screen "press any key to boot to CD........" i let it go because ur not ment to boot to cd after that, but on that same screen it comes up with a few different coloured boxes on the screen and it just hangs and thats where im absulutly stumped

Oct 18, 2009I had a copy of Ultimate laying around the house and decided for some stupid reason to upgrade the OS yesterday. It's been a nightmare. After 10 hours I've reinstalled many, many programs and have been able to get the to launch all of them with the exception of Outlook. I've searched for a solution and have had no luck following a solution to the problem I'm encountering.
I'm getting the following error message:
>>> Cannot open your default e-mail folders. An unexpected error has occured. MAPI was unable to load the information service mspst.dll. Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.<<<
I have successfully used Outlook 2007 for the past 6 months on my home PC. The problems I am encountering began immediately following the upgrade to Ultimate (32 bit--I thought I'd have less problems with drivers going 32 bit route than trying 64). I am hoping to salvage my contacts and calendar if at all possible (I have them backed up on an external drive but it's not current about 6 weeks old...I see an Outlook.pst in Windows.old but I cannot open it). I've had to reinstall Office Ultimate 2007 and I have run repair three times. All the Microsoft Windows Ultimate updates are installed. Not sure if this is related but the Office Ultimate Disc 2 will not install properly.

Nov 21, 2009I have been a computer and Vista user for the past 16 months.
I did have a few problems with Vista when I first got my computer, but after a couple of months of the odd freeze, I found Vista to run beautifully, with no problems at all.
I have learn't a lot with regard to computing and along the way have learn't to use the Vista OS, which I like enormously.
Having seen what Windows 7 offers, I don't see much that I would use, other than a few neat tricks here and there....
My question is, do I need to fork out the extra dollars for Windows 7 ?? ( I'd rather not ) And does anyone know how long Vista will be supported for??
I would hope I can hold on to 200 dollars for the upgrade and keep using Vista.
My impression, is that Windows 7 is pretty much a slightly improved version of Vista, which for me....is working beautifuly.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 Upgrade Experiences
Nov 8, 2009I have a client where more than a few users are running Vista Business or
Ultimate and despise it because of the slow performance, freezes, long
startup times, etc. These are typically Lenovo laptops or tablets running
Intel Core Duo processors of 2GHZ or better speed and 4G of RAM. In the past
I have checked these computers for malware and tried to optimize best I
could eliminating uneeded startup programs, disabling indexing, optimizing
power settings for performance, etc. That usually helped somewhat but not
enough to make them happy.
Now they want to upgrade to Windows 7. I am wondering what experiences users
have had in upgrading such computers in that have you seen a notable
improvement in performance with the simple upgrade path or did it require a
clean install to get performance to be better. I am trying to avoid the
clean install route because of the extra time it will take to reconfigure
all the settings, FIND and reinstall ALL the software, plug ins, and
drivers, and backup/restore data.

Jun 25, 2009I am currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit and I want to install Windows 7 when it comes out. According to the upgrade advisor I have to purchase the same "Ultimate" version in order to just do an upgrade. It says that if I want to install a lower version, I will have to do a clean install. My question is, if I purchase the lower version (Win 7 Professional), do I have to purchase the full version and not the upgrade version? IOW, can I still do a clean install from the upgrade version? If I recall there was a just this work around when Vista was first released. Would this still hold true for Windows 7?
