Upgrade Xp In Other Language Than English
I am a XP user in Holland, so I used Dutch as a language for my computer. I know I could use the English, but so it is. I tried to upgrade my computer to Windows7, but it says that an other language is not possible. When I read the dixtionary files online then I red that it is still possible with some extra actions. Is this true or do I red it wrong?

Upgrade Win7 From Spanish To English
My HP TouchSmart 300 (December 09) PC, OE Win 7 Premium works only in "Spanish" as I purchased this PC in Mexico where I presently reside on a temporary basis for the winter. I do not speak Spanish. I want to use the "Anytime Upgrade" to upgrade from Win 7 Premium to Win 7 Ultimate. Windows 7 Ultimate has 'English' language amongst it's multiple language possibilities. Is there any reason why I should not be able to install the upgrade English language Windows 7 Ultimate over the HP OE Spanish language Windows 7 Premium?

Upgrade Path Problem - Win 7 RC To Vista To Win7 Upgrade
I installed Win 7 RC on a new build and purchased Vista Home Premium 64bit OEM with upgrade to Win 7 Home premium. The Win 7 upgrade disc has arrived. I understand that Vista must be installed and activated for the upgrade to work. Attempts to install Vista with Win 7 RC running or booting from the Vista disc lead to error code 0x80070103, insufficient free space. My HDD has > 450 Gb free space in 2 partitions. Do I need to reformat the HDD in order to install Vista over Win 7?

English Win 7 Key + German Install Disks, Will It Work ?
I have an OEM version of Win 7 Pro (English) currently installed on my system. I am currently upgrading my Motherboard and CPU, building another system with the old parts. As the recipients of my old setup are German, the OS needs to be in German for them also. Here is my dilemma. When I pickup a new copy of Win 7 it will be in German (as I am living in Germany). They need a German instillation of 7 and my current OEM key is locked to the old motherboard. Will I be able to use that English OEM key with a German instillation, then use the new German key with my current English disks?

Upgrade From Win XP Pro Using Vista Upgrade Then To Win 7
If I have WIN XP Pro, can I 1st upgrade to Vista; then Upgrade to Win 7 without 'clean install'. I currently have 4 desk and Laptops with Vista Ultimate (OEM Dell) and 2 desk with Vista Bus and Vista Ult upgrades. However, I have 3 other units with XP PRO and clients with another 20 machines (XP PRO). If we first did a 32 bit Vista upgrade, could we then do a "Windows 7 Upgrade" WITHOUT a clean install to save the human resource time?

Upgrade From Win Vista Ultimate To Win 7 Home Premium
I have 2 PCs with Vista Ultimate it on and I bought 2 "upgrades" (or downgrades - you decide) to Windows 7 Home Premium (I never use Bit Locker and only need English). When I bought the upgrades (Amazon.com), it stated that I can do this upgrade.However when I attempted to upgrade it stated that I can only do a reinstall. Can I purchase an upgrade from 7 Home Premium to 7 Ultimate that works at pre install oris there a work around? There is nothing I hate more about Windows than having to reinstall applications, drivers, and updating the registry.

Vista OEM + Win 7 Upgrade = Win 7 Retail?
This is not a question about the logistics of installing the OS -- I've already found out that you can do a clean install with the upgrade media. It is more a question of what I am entitled to do with my Win7 license (does it retain the OEM limitations or is it a retail version)? When I buy the Win7 upgrade am I "destroying" my Vista OEM license and creating a Win7 Retail license OR do I now own a Vista OEM and Win7 OEM license which are both tied to the same machine?  Specifically I am concerned with the following scenario: I currently own Machine 1 with Vista OEM installed on it. I purchase Win7 upgrade, so now I have Machine 1 with Win7 on it. In a year or two I plan on building a new machine, let’s call it Machine 2. I am going to take Machine 1 out of service completely or install an old retail copy of XP on it at this time. Am I licensed to install Win7 on Machine 2 OR is that license stuck with Machine 1?

Upgrade XP Prof X64 English To Win7 Ultimate X64 Dutch
Ok, i'm dazzled by the many websites with each a different opinion, upgrade paths, and so. It took me hours of reading and clicking. I'm nearly fed up. So finally made it to this forum. With my question: Is it possible to legally upgrade from XP professional X64 English (OEM) to Windows 7 Ultimate X64 Dutch? Retail or OEM needed? BTW: Windows 7 Professional X64 Dutch would be a good alternative. It's unclear to me if it' s allowed to switch from an English OS to a dutch OS. Some say any new OS MUST be the same language as the old one. But is this also appliable for the Ultimate version, since it can switch to other languages after install? I will be doing a clean install. Further on i am struggling with the ' professional' to ' ultimate' switch. In some cases that path would not be allowed, others say it is allowed. What we'd need is a wizard containing all the different choices and possiblilities. Simply choose the old OS from a drop down menu and the new OS, and it would tell you YES thats possible or NO, impossible. And under what conditions. Would draw a lot of site visitors. Just my 2 cents.

BSOD During Upgrade From Vista To Win 7
So I did a Windows 7 Upgrade advisor, it told me to remove Window Mobile Device Center, and some other programs. On my own, I had one of those virtual CD rom drivers, I remember they were buggy when upgrading to Vista but that wasn't it either. I tried the installation twice and I get the same error, I saw someone elses post and downloaded the Debugger to examine the Mini dump. I don't know if it makes a difference but I am installing this on an MSI PR800 notebook with an OCZ Core SSD drive. I cannot find where to look to examine the dump. The computer just gives a BSOD and I have to shut it down manually, theres no reference to a location.It happens during a restart, I think the first one, maybe the second. Its during the black loading screen where it first says Windows is Starting (not the one for the first time) and then the flag comes up, somewhere in the middle of the flag loading. Then I get BSOD that says:Page_fault_in_nonpaged_area3 paragraphs of standard text. Techical Information:*** STOP: 0x00000050 (0x902A90A4,0x00000001,0x8245A014,0x00000000) Any advice?

Dell Upgrade - Vista 32 To Win 7 64
I seem to have gotten myself into a problem. I bought a computer with Vista 32 bit Home Premium installed. I wanted a 64 bit OS, so I requested & received a 64 bit version of Vista from Dell. My Windows 7 upgrade discs arrived from Dell, but they're for 32 bit Windows 7 (based on my original configuration) and not 64 bit. I've been told that I need to custom install Win 7 and format the partition that has the 64 bit version so that I don't lose my "free upgrade" status. Does that sound right? SEcondly, is there another way around this? I have some upgrade discs from other systems, can I use those & just enter the product key from my 32-bit Dell discs?

Ultimate Vista To Win 7 Upgrade
Is it possible to install Windows Vista Ultimate to two separate drives and then use Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade on one of the drives to get the option of switching between Vista Ultimate and Windows 7 Ultimate? I also wanted to know if the Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade was in a Family Pak?

OEM Upgrade From Vista-64 To Win 7-32
If I buy a new Vista computer right now, I get a voucher for a free upgrade to Windows 7. The manufacturer only offers Vista-64 for this computer. When the Windows 7 arrives, will it have both 32 and 64 DVDs, or only the 64? If only the 64 DVD arrives, can it be exchanged or must I buy a retail Windows 7 32?

Uninstall Win 7 From Vista Upgrade
I could have sworn I saw an article discussing the ability to remove Windows 7 after a succesful Vista SP1 upgrade. I can't find anything about it now. This was un upgrade not a dual boot or fresh install. I did create an image of my computer before the upgrade, but I wanted to see how the uninstall works. Any help would be greatful.

Keep Changing Language Into Portuguese
I have just purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium installed on it. I chose Traditional Chinese as the system language when I activated the Windows. Everything went smoothly until I shut down and restart the machine. The system automatically update itself and install Portuguese as the default language. I can't do anything about this but recover the system and so keep losing the softwares or other updates that I have installed.

I upgraded my VISTA laptop to Windows 7. The upgrade went on well, & the first 15 minutes of my experience with Windows7 was awesome. But after that my pointer just stopped moving. Suspecting this to be a temp problem i went in for a re-boot. But even after that my problem is the same. My Mouse freezes to work after somthing like 5~10 min . It is a HP Laptop.

Backup The OS Using Win 7 Pro Before Upgrade From Vista
I spent a lot of money on Vista Ultimate upgrade so I got 2 removable HD. One for vista and one for Windows 7. When I upgraded to Vista, nothing would work and I had a mess. I don't plan on doing that with Windows 7. So when Windows 7 gives me a problem and I don't have the time to fix it I will just slip in my Vista HD and continue working and when I have the time I'll fix the problems which might not be fixable like we don't have the driver yet for Windows 7. So I need the full version of Windows 7 Pro because I want to backup the OS using the backup that the OS supplies. What's the best way to buy the full version because everyone is trying to sell it for October 23?
