Get A Slip-streamed Version Of Windows 7 Pro With SP1?
Jan 22, 2012
I have a licensed version of Windows 7 Pro, which I purchased from Digital River on the Web. I have since updated it to SP1, and I removed the rollback files to save hard disk space.My question -- how do I get a slipstreamed SP1-ready version ISO which I can use with my license? I'd like to keep a copy ready on a DVD in case I ever need to do an in-place reinstall of Windows, should it ever get hosed (I understand that this should be possible, as the Windows license is a separate entity from the ISO itself -- or am I wrong?). I assume that any version of Win 7 Pro downloaded now would have the SP1 files slipstreamed into it. With the version I have now, I would have to do a complete reinstall.

If you've ever re-installed Windows 7 recently (or office 2010) there's a myriad of updates that can take a long time (I think around 1 GB of downloads if you include Office).Is it possible like we did with XP to "Slipstream" the Service packs and updates into Windows 7 and an Office install media.Office 2010 sp1 is a separate download and Windows 7 retail doesn't always have SP1 included.

So I installed a beta version of W7 Ultimate and it's displaying a watermark that says "this is not a legit version". I never had a legitimate product key.I want to purchase a real version and upgrade appropriately.Can I purchase an Upgrade license to Windows 7 Ultimate or do I have to purchase a Full version?Also, what if I wanted to install Windows 7 Home Edition instead of the Ultimate version. If I did this, I assume I would have to install the Full version correct?

I am running Windows 7 on my computer and have downloaded overdrive and the updates. When I try to download an audio book to my computer, It still gives me this error message: The version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you are running. Check your computer system information to see whether you need x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publishe

I'm trying to install some applications on a Lenovo ideapad with windows 7 home premium, 64-bit, SP1. I'm getting the following error - "The version of this file is not compatible with the the version of windows you're running." I've installed all of these specific applications (e.g. RealPlayer, Logmein, Windows 2007 Compatibility Pck File Format Converter) and many other 32-bit apps on other Windows 7 64-bit machines, including 2 other Lenovo laptops with the exact same specs, purchased at the same time, with absolutely no issue.

When attempting to upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 the upgrade attempt may fail with the message “This version of Windows could not be installed, Your previous version of Windows has been restored, and you can continue to use it." However, the next reboot of the machine will launch the upgrade process again only to fail with the same message.

So I bought what I thought what the full version of Windows 7 Pro online for the student discount for $65. I got it all installed and the activation key wouldn't work.Long story short I got the upgrade version on accident. So I got that refunded and I'm about to just go buy Home Premium. I need to install it. Do I need to uninstall Pro before I install Home Premium? Or will it just get rid of it for me when I install it?

I am buying a new PC in Spain but want Windows 7 Home Premium in English, which does not seem to be available anywhere here. So my techie guy is downloading an English version (pirate???) and at same time buying a genuine Spanish version. He says he will then use the key code from the Spanish pack to validate the English version.
Is this possible, and could I encounter any problems later? How can I be 100% sure (before I leave the shop!) that I have a validated, genuine English version of Windows 7 that will continue to work indefinitely?

I need to know if I can use a clean install disk for Windows 7 Ultimate to upgrade from Vista or if I have to use an Upgrade version?
I'm leaning towards buying the clean install disk so that if I should loose the hard drive at some future point I could just clean install Win 7 Ultimate from the disk without having to first install Vista and then upgrade.
Regardless of which type I purchase, am I better off to buy the OEM disk from the machine manufacturer (Toshiba) or just purchase any OEM disk? Of course, if I want Microsoft support then I need to purchase retail disks.

I was stupid enough to purchase a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate full version for my computer from someone on Craigslist. This copy was brand new and sealed. I thought it was legit. I completed wiped my computer clean and installed the software. Everything went fine - until after about a month I started getting this message saying "Must Activate Computer." After talking to Microsoft, this software was legit, but it is something called a developer's copy and it blocked my activation code because I wasn't using certain features because I wasn't supposed to have a copy like this. Of course I tried contacting the person - who is now ignoring all my e-mails. In any event...I want to go purchase a legit version from a store but am not sure what I need. I can currently use my computer, but it is operating illegally from the Windows 7 Ultimate that was installed. I do not need ultimate...home premium is fine.
1) Do I need an upgrade version or a full version?
2) What can I do with this developer's copy of Ultimate? Can I sell it anywhere to someone who is allowed to use it? I"d like to get something for it to help pay for the new one.

in Linux I have a file-server which has a Logical Volume defined.This consists of TWO x 1 TB hard-disks "joined" to make a single mount point.To access I simply open up konquerer and point to /usr/share/myLVM..I can save up to 2 TB of data into that folder and when it's full, simply add another physical disk and then include that in the LVM. The available space increases accordingly in that mount point.My Q is, can I perform something similar with Windows server 2003?I have a domain but unable to set AD permissions and ACLs to the file servers as they all run Linux LVMs.

I am using on my Dell Inspiron 1440 laptop Windows 7 N version (authorised version) which does not have Media Player bundled in. As suggested in Microsoft support we site I downloaded the Media Feature Pack for Windows 7 N with Service Pack 1 and Windows 7 KN with Service Pack 1 (KB968211) and installed. But I am not able to launch media player. WMP 12 does not even show up in the Programs list. How do I launch WMP 12 and other media related modules of Win 7?

I have a new PC with 8GB of RAM, so obviously want to install Windows 7 64 bit. I have Windows 7 DVD. It is saying in many places that at installation it will allow you to chose between 64 bit and 32 bit versions, however I am not given any choice at the application(unless I am doing something wrong) and it just installs 32 bit version

Need a 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium install with sp1 on a flash drive. My Windows 7 disks (retail) are pre sp1. I borrowed a friends Windows 7 Ultimate disk with sp1 but when I transfer from the iso to the flash drive using Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool (having used ei.cfg Removal Utility to make all version available) all I get is the Ultimate SP1 version.If I do the same thing to a dvd it works fine and the install gives me a choice of ,Basic / Premium / Pro /Ultimate.Why does it work on a dvd but not the flash drive ?i can use the dvd but it would be good to have it all on a flsh drive
