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 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.

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?

Connect Win 7 With XP SP3 Vista SP2 Via Remote Desktop
Microsoft is gearing up to release a tool that will permit users of Windows Vista and Windows XP computers to connect to Windows 7 machines, and to take advantage of features that only the latest version of the Windows client brings to the table. Bridging Vista and XP with Windows 7 will be possible through the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) 7.0 client. The Redmond-based company has been cooking the client for some time now, and it appears that the baking time is almost over. There’s still no definitive delivery deadline, but with Windows 7 general availability now almost a month away, Remote Desktop Connection 7.0 GA is bound to follow.

Issues With Dual Boot Xp Sp3 / Ubuntu / Win 7 Beta
I'm a bit stuck and I hope you guys can point me on the right path. System AMD 3200+ Single Core OC'd 1.5gb Ram Dual Channel SATA 160gb SATA 500gb 9500GT 1gb Win Xp Home sp3 Ubuntu All attempts by me produce this error: WindowsSystem32winloader.exe Corrupt or missing Will not boot to Win7, initial install completes with no issues, error is gained after 1st reboot of install. The only option available to me is to use the Earlier Version of Windows and this loads my normal dual boot screen. Win Xp boots fine. 1st Attempt Using Partition Magic 8.0, added a partition to the 160mb C: drive (not smart, I know) that holds Win XP. Installed Win 7 to that partition. See error above. 2nd Attempt Deleted data on Win 7 partition, formatted the partition, left blank. Created new partition on other physical drive that does not have an OS on it. Installed Win7 to 50gb partition, 1st reboot, same error. 3rd, 4th, 5th Attempt Variations of above with 32bit Win7 and 64bit, all produce same errors. Now Win7 dual boot window has like 6 copies of Windows 7 to choose from. Downloaded EasyBCD to see if I could figure out the problems and remove fake Windows 7 entries. Blearly eyed and late at night I deleted the Previous Version of Windows entry (DOH!). Reboot, system dead, only non- functioning Windows 7 entry to choose from. Used original XP Silver to (R)epair and Fixboot. Xp Dual Boot screen is back, XP boots fine. Man, I'm loosing my chops! Too bad I can't format the part of my brain that contains all the DOS 2.1 thru Win 3.0 stuff and make room for new stuff! Anyway, I feel I'm missing something basic and simple to make this work properly, could someone please point it out to me??

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 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?

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.

Win7 To Win 7 In-place Upgrade Is Not Option ?
I have a IBM Lenovo laptop which has a 7b boot device blue-screen error now in Windows 7 RTM. I am unable to repair this using windows repair. I tried to do a boot from DVD in-place upgrade but this appears to not be an option for my configuration. It keeps telling me that I must reboot with the existing Windows 7 install and run setup from inside of Windows 7. Unfortunately due to the blue screen error I m unable to boot into the OS and launch the setup and run an in-place upgrade. I tried to do that already which got me into this mess and the infinite loop associated with repairing windows on every re-boot. Is there anyway to run setup with some type of command that forces the upgrade to occur?

Upgrade From Win 7 Home Premium To Win7 Professional
I'm trying to upgrade from Win7 Home Premium to Win7 Professional on my new machine. I click the Windows Anytime Upgrade icon and get the dialog to "Go online and choose the edition that is right for you" "After your purchase, Windows will upgrade automatically". Well, it rejects every form of payment I've given it, so this is broken. I call into the Microsoft Store and they have never heard of this path and insist the only way to upgrade is through the postal service (in other words, through the mail). Who can I call or talk to about buying a product key that will be given to me by EMAIL or PHONE? 1-877-696-7786 is absolutely not the right answer to my question.

Win 7 Home Prem (64) UPGRADE To Win7 Pro (64)
I emailed Microsoft support this question and got a useless answer back; they just sent me a link to download the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, which basically told me what I already knew (that my system is capable of running Windows 7). So I called them just now and the so-called "tech support" person wasn't much of a help either, she didn't seem too bright and didn't know much about the whole upgrade process, giving me conflicting information. So, I hope someone on here can answer this for me. I recently bought a new laptop that came pre-installed with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Then I found out that Home Premium does not have "XP Mode" capability, so I used the Student Discount offer to buy Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (full version not upgrade) from Microsoft's website for $29.99 (what a bargain!). Can anyone tell me FOR SURE, whether I can do just an upgrade (where all my manufacturer's pre-installed applications, drivers, and all my currently installed applications and settings are preserved) or if I MUST do a clean install (reinstalling all of these applications, etc.)?

Upgrade Win 7 Home Premium To Win7 Pro On DVD
I have Win 7 Home premium installed and activated.(it came on the computer) The non profit that I do work for allows us to buy the Win 7 Pro upgrade DVD for almost nothing so I did. When I try to upgrade from within Windows, it tells me that I need to use Windows anytime upgrade. When I attempt to use it, and type in the provided 25 digit license, it takes it, starts the upgrade, and then tells me that the license number is valid, but not for anytime upgrade. When I try and boot directly from the DVD with the system BIOS set for DVD as 1st boot item, it skips right past the DVD and boots from the hard drive. Is there anyway to do this upgrade from the DVD, or is it only good if I do a complete re install?

BSOD 0x00000124 - Win7 RC1 Upgrade From Win Vista Ultimate
I just tried to Upgrade to Windows 7 RC1 from Windows Vista Ultimate When rebooting, I get the windows 7 boot screen, and directy after that a BSOD displays with the STOP code: STOP: 0x00000124 (0x00000004,0x84437024,0x00000000,0x00000000) I have already tried to disabled the C1E option in my BIOS, and as far as I currently know, I dont have a onboard video card. What really bugs me, is that I cant seem to find what the 2nd parameter is, since I have not found any post with the exact similar error code.

Upgrade From Win XP / Vista To Win7: Product Key Language Version
We currently run 3 PCs at home (all 32 bit): PC 1: German Windows Vista Home Premium PC 2 & 3: English Windows XP Home I'd like to purchase the Windows 7 family pack (English) to upgrade all of the PCs (clean install preferred). Questions: 1. Can all 3 PCs be upgraded to the English version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit with the family pack, despite the different language versions? 2. When performing a clean install, is it sufficient to enter the product key of the previously installed system when using the upgrade disk/key or is the old system required on the harddisk? 3. Just to confirm: The family pack comes with both, the 32 bit and 64 bit version for Windows 7 Home Premium?
