We just receive some volume license keys for Windows 7 (I'd ask this on a Win 7 NG but I can't find any). Due to a delay in receiving them, I had to install Win 7 Pro on one PC using a spare retail DVD and product key. Is there a way to convert this retail installation to use the Volume License product key without having to reinstall everything using the VL DVD and key?

I have the DVD that came with it to restore vista, which I don't want to use because of all the extra crapola that it installs. I also have an x32 Vista DVD that came with my VIsta Upgrade retail package. My question is - since I have the serial number that came with the laptop, will it work with the retail DVD even though it's an OEM serial?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Sony notebook that came with Vista Business OEM from Sony. I have upgraded it to SP1 and have added various updates since then. I have a retail Vista Ultimate license/DVDs and a retail Vista Ultimate + SP1 license/DVDs. What's the least problematic way to take what I have and end up with the Sony notebook running Vista Ultimate SP1? Is it even worth it?
I don't want to do the Anytime Upgrade since the full retail licenses I have are already paid for. I'm a little leery because so much of the stuff Sony installs seems very fragile. (For instance, I don't want the TPM code tipping over.) I'm also really leery about uninstalling SP1, in part for the same reasons plus there have been many updates and changes since then.I had mentally reserved the SP1 license for the next desktop I build (Nehalem/Bloomfield X58?) and had hoped to use the slipstreamed DVD to avoid having to build that one and then immediately go install SP1. OTOH, if there is a way to get a pair of unkeyed Vista+SP1 edition DVDs as replacement or SP media--that I can use with my pre-SP1 retail key--I would consider that.
My daughter's ASUS Vista Home Premium (64 bit) laptop has the dreaded empty list in "Turn Windows options on or off". I have tried everything to fix it including:
-running SFC /scannow -setting an earlier restore point (unfortunatley the oldest is 5 days, as Windows Update keeps creating restore points when before it fails to install updates) -running KB931712 standalone -remove the reg key HKLMCOMPONENTS /v StoreDirty (not present).......
How do you upgrade from Premium to Ultimate if the Premium version number is newer than the Ultimate version number? When I try the upgrade to the Ultimate DVD, the install says that the Premium install is a "newer operating system" and then only allows a clean install, which isn't much fun. Is there any way to tell the install to ignore the version numbers and just do it?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat's the difference between an OEM and Retail version of Vista? I know that an OEM version is the one the computer manufactor gives to you, but is there a real difference?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI know that retail versions of Vista Ultimate come with media for both 32-bit and 64-bit installation and that the same product will work for either. Machines that are purchased with Vista pre-installed come with either 32-bit or 64-bit versions, but there is no way to change from a 32-bit version to a 64-bit version, ever if you have 64-bit hardware. The COA on the bottom of the machine says Vista Ultimate, but does not say 32-bit or 64-bit. I have been told that you can reinstall Vista onto machines that originally came with OEM versions of Vista using retail media and activate using the OEM-supplied product key. (This is different from XP, where retail disks will not activate using OEM product keys). My question is whether I can install Vista Ultimate from a retail 64-bit DVD (that is licensed onto a different machine) and activate using the OEM key and whether or not Microsoft thinks this is a legal use of their product.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMicrosoft says they will give support during "warranty period"- I opened a support request and after a few basic suggestions Microsft is now not responding to my requests for assistance. I last heard from their "escalation engineer" on 4/22 and today is May 1; I've sent him thee emails and he has not responded. Their basic suggestions- "make sure the phone line is plugged into the fax modem" and "try a reinstall-in-place" -solved nothing. I'm basically getting to understand it is a problem with RPC Server permissions, somehting I've found myself in the Microsoft Newsgroup and the Knowledge Base. And if I could find it, I gotta wonder why the Microsoft "support professional" couldn't suggest it.
I paid $360 for Vista- and they are not answering my support emails. This is BAD SERVICE. Nobody cares. My home PC is Vista, but I sure as hell am not going to use Vista for my corporation. That's right, I run a business. And this little episode is going to ensure that my staff and I work to move EVERYTHING to Open Source platforms; I've NEVER had this kind of trouble getting a Linux issue resolved- and my copy of Ubuntu was FREE as opposed to the $360 I paid for Vista!
Couldn't really tell from the Repair Install tutorial, so which retail version of Vista do I need to purchase, so that I can perform a repair install, via "upgrade" of Vista? As I look at my OEM Home Premium disk, it has the options to install ALL versions of Vista, so does that mean I could buy the cheapest retail version, use it and perform a repair install of my OEM version, by simply selecting the correct OS as per your "Repair Install" tutorial, and then go from there?
Basically, I would like to have a "God" mode DVD, that allows me to a)perform a repair install of existing Vista installs, and/or b)perform a clean install, and to be able to do a) or b) simply by telling the installation process which version I have (Home Basic, Ultimate, etc.), and whether the copy is retail or OEM. I thought this is why Microsoft WENT to the DVD that would allow all installs, simply by selecting the right OS and OEM or Retail.

someone successfully made it simply by changing the extension from .mod to mpg, but for most people, they just failed only to find there is no audio after the extension is changed, or the changed one doesn&8217;t allow you to import these files into windows movie maker, not to mention upload some video to Internet.com or facebook. people use different operation system, windows xp, vista or else. no one wants to say they just want to enjoy the .mod files on camcorder. stop wasting your time and getting pissed off..............
