Windows 8.1 (not RT) installation on Surface RT?

Hello all, 
i'm trying to find an answer to a very simple answer but somehow i can't...
is it possible to install Windows 8.1 pro on MS Surface RT?
I have 8.1RT version installed but I want it as a work machine and since 8.1RT is not supporting joining a domain - I need pro instead.
can it be done?
Thanks!

No.  The CPU is actually different (ARM vs. Intel) and doesn't even run the same instructions.

  • ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
    If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.

    Unable to install iTunes after converting from Windows Vista to Windows 7.  Am told installation was successful, then "iTunes was not installed correctly", followed by "Error 7 (Windows error 193).  I have my iPod plugged into my computer via USB port.  What am I doing wrong?

    i have the only account on my laptop so have checked and am the account administrator
    i run windows 7 home premium
    I have the same problem and
    have followed the link uninstalling in the correct order,
    then restarted as per instructions,
    went to Apple to download itunes,
    hit download now,
    Visit the iTunes download page. Click Download Now to download the iTunes installer. When prompted, click Save (instead of Run).
    did not get a save instead of run prompt
    Right click on iTunesSetup or iTunes64Setup (the installer you downloaded in step 3).
    If you have Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: Choose "Run as administrator."
    i can only click run as administrator from right clicking the shortcut on my desktop screen
    If iTunes fails to install or repair, it might be necessary to remove components left from a previous installation of iTunes and then reinstall.
    sick of doing this
    at least 7 or 8 times i have re installed itunes to no avail
    troubleshooting no better
    please help. pulling my hair out at this stage

  • Lightroom6 instalation rejects installation on Windows 7 with remark that windows vista is not supported

    I tried to install Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 System
    The installer jejects the Installation with the remark that Windows Vista is not supported by this product
    Is that Problem known? Is any solution available?

    Hi Michael,
    You can follow the article: How to troubleshoot issues that may prevent a program from being installed correctly on a Windows Vista-based computer and check whether the installer is running in Compatible Mode or not.
    If the check box for Compatibility Mode is checked and simply UnCheck it and click Apply.
    Run the installer and again and check if it still gives you any error message.
    Let us know if it works or not.
    Thanks,

  • I have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this?

    Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
    You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

  • Windows xp will not boot up after installation of desktop software 4.3.

    windows xp will not boot up after installation of desktop software 4.3.  Where do I start to get my p.c. going again ???

    I get the message that a recent hardware or software change might have caused this.
    The computer does not boot up in safe mode or last known good configuration.
    I'm glad you think the software has nothing to do with it, but perhaps you can also explain why this problem started as soon as I downloaded the desktop software and tried to restart the computer.

    It looks like the installation files are being shared over a terminal services connection (based on what you are saying, I'm guessing you're using Hyper-v and it's using TS to present the files).  I always run into mixed results when I run installs from
    a path not local to the server.  Can you copy the install paths locally and rerun setup?
