Canadian Student Digital River Download Product Key
Oct 23, 2009
I downloaded from Digital River yesterday with the student discount, and had the same problem as everyone else "unboxing" the download. I used the fix that's been circling round the forums and have got it installed and working. The only thing I'm missing is a product key. Wasn't Digital River supposed to give me one in my confirmation email?
I've received nothing of the sort, and would really like to activate this product I've purchased. I have product keys from previous versions of Windows that I've bought, but the machine I installed Windows 7 on was using Linux as its main operating system. Any thoughts?
I have purchased Windows 7 Pro 64 from Digital River. I would like to buy another Pro64 bit key but I am only allowed one Pro64 bit download. They will allow me to buy the Pro32 bit version, will the product key that comes with the Pro32 bit version allow me to install and activate another Pro64 bit install. Are the keys version specific?
I have recently built my own computer. The only thing i was missing was an OS. I downloaded Windows 7 home premium 64 bit(from microsoft's partner Digital River). I took the ISO file onto my USB stick and tried to plug it in to my new computer. It did not work, which was logical. Then i used "Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool" from Microsoft, to make the usb bootable and the ISO. when it was done, i tried to plug the USB stick into my new computer, sadly it did not work. Then i tried to install the OS on a virtual machine "Oracle virtual box". I mounted the ISO file to the DVD drive on my laptop. Then i opened up virtual box to install the OS. It worked! I do not know why i does not work when i try to install it from the usb stick on my new computer.
I purchased the $30 Student download upgrade for Windows 7 Professional. I want to do a fresh install and therefore need to boot off a disc. Where do i download the iso so I can burn my disc of Windows 7 Professional? I currently have the full 32-bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium.
Can an .iso of the Win 7 Student download be used to "upgrade" a new laptop with the same version of Win 7, thus getting rid of unwanted programs? In other words, do a clean install using the .iso on DVD, then using the registration key from the new Win 7 laptop?
Assuming it will work, how much problem is there likely to be with drivers?
I recently downloaded the student download for windows 7. After i downloaded it off my school's website, the 2 GB file was put into a folder on my laptop. I tried opening the file but it won't let me. This is the file name: en_windows_7_ultimate_win32_x15-79703 and its an IMG file.
I'm going to be installing a fresh copy of windows on a computer. My question is can I download Windows 7 with SP1 and use the product key that came with the computer which originally just had Windows 7 without SP1. I'm not sure if SP1 will have some effect on it.
I've recently switched to Digital Audio (S/PDIF) (High Definition Audio Device) using one Toslink cable instead of all the analog wires going from my PC to my receiver.The digital sound is amazing, CD quality from my PC is great.However, I now also receive the digitized sound of pages being loaded as I surf the web. All sound comes out digitized when loading a new page.Is there a way to stop this from happening while listening to music or course material without gong back to analog?Can I have my digital CD quality and enjoy it too!
I have a Lenovo B5 series Idea Centre all-in-one with Windows 7. I downloaded videos from my digital camera and do not know where they are. Is there some way that I can change where they are saved to? I can vaguely remember when I first downloaded videos a window appeared asking where I wanted to save them and I cannot remember where I said ok to.
I have Windows 7. I also have a Canon Digital Rebel XT that I am trying to load the software onto my laptop. I have the original discs. Loaded them, plugged in the camera and got an error message that there is no driver for this camera. I downloaded the upgrades from Canon's website, still no luck. Windows states that this camera is compatible...
I have the option of going for the Windows 7 student deal and have a few questions that I want to clarify before I go for it:
- Is it the retail upgrade version, not the OEM upgrade? So I'll be able to use this key on a brand new box later on down the road?
- Is a clean install of the upgrade version exactly the same as a clean install of the retail, bar the MediaBootInstall registry key being 1 instead of 0 (if the installer doesn't find any previous version of Windows)? I.e. Is it just the installer that differs, with no difference between an actual clean install of the upgrade and retail versions?
- I installed and have been using the RTM for a few weeks, can I just use the upgrade key to activate this version?
I bought the student upgrade, and I was wondering if it's possible to make the OS's native language to be Japanese. Everything from the word my computer to control panel would be in japanese.
I ordered the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade - 32 bit for $30 with my .edu student email. I have it installed on my computer, and I have a cd key aswell that came with it online. I was wondering 2 things:
1: Can I use my key to install it on multiple computers?
2: Can I go to that same site, use my same .edu email and pay and download and install more? My whole family wants windows 7.
I am a student with Vista Home Premium right now and I want to upgrade to 7 using the $30 student upgrade.
A couple of questions though.
If I have read this right, (Windows 7 US Online Store - Student Registration) then if I buy and install Windows 7 Home Premium I won't need to backup my files? Is this true? If so, does that mean all of my files will be in the same places? And also what about my programs like Office and all of the other many programs I have installed right now?? I am just trying to clarify this so I don't end up not backing up my data and end up losing it accidentally.
I have a friend who has spyware on their computer. It's a Vista machine that's so far gone that the only option would be to wipe it (unless someone else has a better solution).
But I have a copy of Win7 Pro from Newegg that's been used already for a computer build I did.
But, could I use this disk alongside a student license code for Win7 Pro?
I have a second 1 terrabyte empty drive I want to install Windows 7 onto. Can I set up the new drive within Vista, do my Student Upgrade with the exe and choose to do a Clean install and have Windows 7 install (and activate) onto the new drive?
Secondly, I want to do this so I may move my critical program files from Vista to 7. Will doing a clean install on a separate drive still format the old drive?
