Help ordering Windows 7 Upgrade disc 2

I have a G60-442OM notebook that came with Vista with a Windows 7 upgrade.
I just performed a system recover on the PC and now I am stuck with Vista as I can not find the second upgrade disc
Any help?

Hello themix1019
Are you saying that when you purchased the notebook, you received a free upgrade to win7?
If so, you would have been sent a key to activate the upgrade in your email or you were sent an upgrade disk.
The key for a physical disk would be in the box the disk came in most likely.
Either way, downloading a new copy is not a problem. If you don't have the key, then theres a problem. You need the key.
Let me know the situation.

Error ordering Windows 7 upgrade disc through Arvato

Hey all, I'm having trouble trying to order a window 7 upgrade disc. I get through the eligibility page just fine, it's just when I try to enter my billing/shipping address, the site throws an error at me (There was an error with validating your address. Please check your info.) I'm very sure my address is correctly entered, and I've tried different addresses as well. Has anyone else had this problem? Any solutions out there??

I just had the same exact problem. i tried so many different addresses. I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem. Can hp help us get past this?

Windows 7 upgrade: discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install?

I would like to know whether the Lenovo Windows 7 upgrade discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install? I called Mentor today and was told the answer is no, but I was hoping someone here could tell me differently.
If "no" is truly the answer, I would like to voice my complaint: The upgrade discs from Microsoft (i.e. the retail upgrade discs) include both the 32 and 64-bit versions, so I don't completely understand why Lenovo's upgrade program doesn't offer the same thing. I purchased my T500 in August, and back then Vista Ultimate 64 was not offered, so I chose Vista Ultimate 32 thinking that I could later upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64. This assumption was based off of the info. on Microsoft's website indicating that all upgrades would contain the 32 and 64-bit versions. I even customized my computer with 4 gigs of RAM thinking that I could take advantage of the extra gig once I installed Windows 7 64.
I don't understand what Lenovo or Mentor Media have to gain by restricting a 32 to 64-bit install. I voiced this opinion to Mentor Media over the phone, who responded by saying that I should be happy since I am receiving a "free" upgrade. I don't think this is an accurate assessment for two reasons: (1) I had to pay $17.03 for shipping, and I still haven't received the upgrade and (2) The total cost of my computer was almost $3,000, and the purchase was made a mere few weeks before Windows 7 was released. $3,000 is a lot of money. I waited for the details of the Windows 7 Upgrade Program to be announced BEFORE purchasing my machine. When I finally bought my computer I accounted Windows 7 into the price I was paying. In addition, when I bought this computer I did so expecting good customer service as a given. Not providing a 64-bit upgrade without a rational explanation as to why does not qualify as appropriate customer service.
As most of you know, 4 gigs of RAM is useless with a 32-bit OS. Also, NOW Lenovo is building new T500s with the option of having Windows 7 Ultimate 64 (why wasn't Vista Ultimate 64 offered when I bought my computer???).  And the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 32 is EQUAL to the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 64, which proves that there is no cost difference. I just want to know what Lenovo has to gain by denying customers a 64-bit upgrade? There would really be no additional cost since as I mentioned before, Microsoft's retail upgrade includes the 32 and 64-bit OS on one disc. If anything I would think that it's costing Lenovo money to strip the 64-bit install from the upgrade discs.
Can anyone please address my problems? Do you think there is anyone at Lenovo I could contact to voice my opinions? I have been a loyal Thinkpad customer for over 5 years now, and I expect better from Lenovo. Thank you for reading!

Is there any way to request a 64-bit OEM? Why should Lenovo care whether I want a 32-bit or 64-bit as long as it's the same edition (Ultimate edition)?
if your system shipped with a 32-bit version of vista then you will be sent 32-bit windows 7 upgrade media.   the reason for this is two-fold.
first, because this is upgrade media, it's impossible to install a 64-bit version of windows over a 32-bit version.   doing so would require a clean installation and upgrade media simply won't allow this.   this is the case with retail media, too.   if you had 32-bit vista installed and wanted to upgrade it to 64-bit using retail media, you'd have to wipe your system or set up a dual-boot.
second, the COA (certificate of authenticity) on the bottom of your system is for vista.   because of this, your new license is of an upgrade from vista to 7.   this is how microsoft licenses it and it is their policy, not lenovo's.   microsoft's policy with OEMs is that you must install vista first, then upgrade to 7 (unless, of course, you purchased your system native with 7 on or after the 22nd).   since your original lenovo preload is of a 32-bit OS, the issue becomes circular and you'll have to refer again to the first reason.
i understand your frustration and wish this stuff were made easier for everyone.   it's repetative reading post after post of people with 4GB installed who don't understand the limitations of a 32-bit environment. i wish both manufacturers and users switched to 64-bit OSes sooner. the same thing happened when the industry went from 16-bit windows 3.11 to 32-bit windows NT4/95 and limitations went from 16KB all the way up to 4GB (which, in 1995, no one thought we'd ever exceed).   the difference is that people were complaining on BBSes over 14.4k modems instead of on GUI-based forums using broadband connections.   times sure have changed.

HT3986 Installing Windows 7 from Upgrade disc

I have a Windows 7 Upgrade disc, can I use it to install Windows? Apple documentation says you can and then later says you can't. Is there a way to install Windows with an Upgrade disc or not? If so, how?

Yes, I guess that's what I was deducing. So if I'm coming from Windows and had previously purchased an upgrade disc, the only way to get Windows on the Mac would be to buy the full Windows OS. Or I'd need to buy the full version of XP or Vista in order to use my upgrade disc...meh.

Cannot uninstall windows powershell in order to upgrade from win2k3 ent x64 to win2k8 ent x64

I can't seem to uninstall windows powershell in order to upgrade my windows 2003 enterprise x64 server to win2k8 ent x64. It says...
You must make the following changes before upgrading Windows
Uninstall the following programs:
Windows PowerShell
I read if I uninstall kb926139 I will in essence uninstall powershell, however I'm being told in add/remove programs that the program cannot be removed, nor is windows powershell displayed as an installed application.

Hi,
I suggest uninstalling SP2 first and then trying to uninstall Powershell.
If the issue persists, you may consider performing an In-Place Upgrade of Windows Server 2003 and then upgrade to Windows Server 2008.

Reinstalling Windows 7 to New Hard Drive with only the Win 7 Upgrade Disc?

So I have an e9180t which like clockwork freezes up after about an hour or two after booting up. I thought it might be the curse of the bad motherboards they came with, but I am hoping it is something else so testing everything I can. I noticed it does not freeze up when booted in safe mode with networking. The hard drive did fail the SMART test so I am wondering if it's time to replace it and if that has something to do with the crashing. I can move cursor, but no apps will open and eventually everything becomes unresponsive causing be tohit the power button to reboot. I already stopped all unnecessary start up programs and it still will freeze in non safe mode.
The PC came with Vista and I believe that's what is on the backup partition on the HD. I do have the Win 7 Upgrade disc from HP. My questons are-
1. If I buy a new HD will the 7 upgrade disc be enough to install full version of Win 7?
2. Anything else I need to do when I install new HD besides reactivate Windows?
Thanks.
This question was solved.

Hi Mike,
Did you create an HP recovery disc set for reinstalling the factory image when the HDD is replaced?
It sound like you may have a problem creating the recovery discs now.
A Smart HDD test failure points to a failing HDD. The symptoms you are experiencing are most likely caused by this fact. You may also have a motherboard or other hardware problem.
You have the Win 7 Upgrade disc and product key.
I am fairly sure the Win 7 upgrade has to be initiated from within Win Vista. The Win 7 upgrade is a full install of Windows so that is not the problem. But it may not run setup unless you start the upgrade in Win Vista. Normally a Win 7 upgrade is started within the current operating system, Win 7 setup validates the existence of a qualifying operating system, and then prompts a reboot to finish the upgrade installation.
You can replace the HDD and try to install Win 7 cleanly. If that fails and you don't have the Vista recovery discs you can purchase an HP recovery disc set here. There are three different builds available. Select the one that matches the factory installed operating system.
You may have one other issue upon replacing the HDD with a newer Advanced Format HDD. Please see this HP Support document for more information.
If you cannot install the Win 7 upgrade cleanly or Win Vista because of the Advanced Format HDD issue, you may have to purchase an OEM copy of Win 7.

Anyone have the Windows 7 Home Premium x32 upgrade disc

Hi. I have an upgrade disc....but I have the incorrect one for my system. It is an upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium x64. I need Windows 7 Home Premium x32 upgrade. I'm hoping to find someone with the proper disc for my system. Lenovo said that's the only way I can upgrade now that the program has ended. Anyone out there still have an upgrade disc? I will pay for mailing and live in GA. If someone else missed the upgrade prgram and can use the disc I have let me know.
Thanks,
CJ

HankT,
When asking a question with undeclared statements, you make it more difficult. Do you have a link for your references concerning an need to upgrade the BIOS. On the webpage BN listed, there is no BIOS update.
I have an HPm8100e CTO, M2N68LA Narra2 board. You have the Narra3 board. The in-place upgrade (abeit it was Ultimate) was successfully completed. The only hick-ups were re-install of a few games, and new printer drivers. (I had 2 printers on that machine).

Can i use use bootcamp with a windows 7 upgrade disc?

I have the upgrade disc, will that work instead of having to buy the full windows 7 disc?

32-bit version only sees 3.5 GB RAM. Running Windows under VM (virtual machine) software it could work as you need to save RAM for OSX.
64-bit sees 16 (Home) or 192 (Pro) GB RAM. As a "future investment", 64-bit makes more sense to me, and makes sense if you plan to run under BootCamp (uses full RAM on the machine) instead of VM.
And if your system can hold more than 16 GB RAM, 64-bit pro makes the best sense.
But that is just pure numbers and my opinion. It does not take your current budget into consideration.

Can't uninstall HP Client security in order to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10

I have HP Probook 450 G2 and my Computer wants to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. But when it begins the upgrade process, I get the message, that 'HP Client Security manager' isn't compatible with Windows 10 and that it must be uninstalled. In order to uninstall it, I first must uninstall HP drive encryption. But to uninstall 'HP drive encryption' all partitions must be decrypted. I have two partition encrypted. hp drive encryption successfully decyrpted C partition with windows, but it can't decrypt H: partition (it has 60 GB data from my dropbox account). In Drive security it says H partition it's decyrpting, but there are no %. Only gray bar. It's been so for 5 days now. I tried to encrypt the H partition again and it did it in 1 second. After the reboot there was a sign Encrypted next to the partition lettter. I than again tried to decrypt H partition and it again won't do it. There' s only a gray bar without % and a sentence that partition is beeing decrypted next to the drive letter. I must decrypt this partition in order to uninstall 'HP drive encryption'. 'HP drive encryption' must be uninstaled in order to uninstall 'HP Client Securtiy Manager'. 'HP Client Securtiy Manager' must be uninstalled in order to upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10.

Actually it's H partition that hp drive encryption is decrypting 5 days now (without % sign). I have only my dropbox data there. I could format that partition and downlad the data from dropbox again (it would take 1 day to download 60 GB of the data again from dropbox). D partition is HP recovery partition but I don't have any problems with it yet (i made a letter mistake in first post). I also made HP recovery media on USB stick. Will hp drive encryption automaticaly update the status of H partition from 'Decrypting' to 'decyrpted', if I format the H: partition? Will drive encyrption login window (WinMagic’s Pre-boot UEFI) (before the windows login) automatically be removed, if I format the H: partition? Will FilterBootOrder (FBO) variable automatically be removed, if I format the H: partition?I imagine this is automaticaly done via decrytion of all partitions/disk in HP client security (which doesn't work correct at my computer). Maybe afterwards the H: partition is formated and HP drive encryption status updated, I can then uninstall hp drive encryption and hp client security and install win10. This is another option.

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Can't access old ver. 9, 11 & 13 clips after Windows upgrade

In Sept. 2014 I downloaded PE 13 from B&H, worked fine and was able to access old PE9 & PE11 clips. In Dec. 2014 had problems with Wind. 7 Home Ed. and had to upgrade to 8.1 (decided on Pro). Installed 8.1 Pro end of Dec. 2014 and bought PE 13 DVD from B&H to reinstall after I backed up my hard drive. Problem after install of 8/1 Pro and installing PE13 from DVD I can't access and restore old clips from 9, 11 & 13. Tried everything I can think of....any suggestions PLEASE!

Very good, I completely understand. Please understand "I am not a computer geek!"
With the old computer system, you have Premiere Elements 9, 11, and 13 projects. And, you import media into each and see thumbnails for each of your imports in the project media area of the program (in version 11 and 13, called Project Assets). CORRECT! Please as we go forward I have the PE 13 that was downloaded from B&H and worked perfectly with my previous assets in PE 9 & 11.
When you go to open a project in one of these programs and go to the project media area, do the source media thumbnails still show as before with image in the thumbnail? Or does the thumbnail have a display of circular arrows? If the present as before, can you drag the file from the project media area to the Timeline? If you cannot, it that the problem? NO! (First info is when I set up my new PE 13 after copying all data to a 1T desk drive and loaded Windows 8.1 Pro to replace my Windows 7 Home Edition, I set up the PE 13 and used 64 bit as suggested.) NOW...When I locate my previous Project Assets on the 1T drive they show as "red blocks" with a play arrow in them where previously were thumbnails, but I can't retrieve them. As such there is nothing to add to the timeline. Last night I added to the NEW PE 13 a 22 min program I'm working on. I have all those assets, thumbnails and everything is working as wonderfully as it did in 9, 11 and downloaded 13.
Now in response to a previous question you asked:
1. When you open Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace, go to Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime, do you see a list of presets when you explore
the Presets" field there? NO.... I can get to /Computer but there is no QuickTime there! I did download QuickTime yesterday after your suggestion.
2. You wrote
Restarted PE13 and received the message "The selected file cannot be played becuse your system does not have the required compresser/decompresser (codec) installed.
Where are you getting the selected file---- from Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace Project Assets to where it was imported originally from a hard drive save location?
Or other? What is the specific full name of one of these files that is giving the error message?
With everything I've been trying, I'll have to recreate this series of events to answer directly.
When you did the switch from Windows 7 Home to Windows 8.1, did you go 64 bit to 64 bit or 32 bit to 64 bit in operating system? Help me with a way to determine what the bit was on 9 & 11!
Were two separate computers involved or did you manage to change the operating all on one computer? All on one Computer
The major focus for me right now is to make sure I know what file triggers the ".....not have the required compressoer/decompressor (codec)"? And to know that
you are in the Premiere Elements 13 Editor and not the Organizer 13 workspace. Help me understand!!!! I know the difference between "Add Media", "Project Assets", "Organizer", "Editor" and "Workspace". But "Project Assets" and "Workspace" are part of "Editor", so I don't understand your question.

How many times can I use a Windows 7 disc in Bootcamp?

Hello,
I want to install Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro via Bootcamp, but I am wondering how many times I can use the Windows Install disc. Currently, I have one MacBook Pro, and in the near future, I will be getting an iMac. Now I want to be able to create a Windows partition for each of these computers, but I am wondering if I will be able to use the same Windows Install disc, or activation keys, or whatever. So can I use a single Windows Install disc on two different computers to create two fully-functioning Bootcamp partitions?
Thanks for any help.

yes an activation pair the serial nr with a guid from the hardware one install it on so it can only be activated 1 time
(if ones computer dies then one have to call ms to be able to use the serial on a new computer)
if one does not activate windows it will stop working after 30 days or so

Windows 7 Disc no longer working in DVD drive

Macbook Pro OS X 10.9.1
2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Hi,
I have an unusal problem that I have found several cases on throughout the forums but none have given an answer and I'm hoping someone here could help me.
I bought an official Windows 7 disc not long back and installed it onto my Macbook Pro with no problems. Since then I removed the Windows partition, mainly because I wasn't using it.
However, there are several Windows games that I'd like to play and so I would like to repartition Windows 7.
My problem is that the drive won't read the Windows 7 discs, not the 32 bit or the 64. When I push it into the drive I can here it begin to spin and slow down several times before it is ejected.
I've tried cleaning the discs and using a drive cleaning CD. The drive accepts all my other DVDs and CDs without a problem, just not these.
This is my first Mac device so I'm a bit of a Mac Mong. I'm hoping it is someothing obvious.
Thanks in advance for any help that may be offered.
Cheers
Shaun

does your machine have an integrated superdrive? if not, skip the disk and download an ISO from below and use that in boot camp assistant.
