How can I copy Windows 7 to another computer?
I got a new laptop with Windows 7 on it. How can I get the Windows 7 from my laptop to my old Windows XP computer safely? Its just that I really like Windows 7 and thought it would be cool to use it when I needed the computer. Thanks in advance.
You will need to purchase a genuine copy of Windows 7 from Microsoft or your local computer/electroncis store. You are not entitled to install Windows 7 on other computers in your household without explicitly purchasing a license for that computer.
Also, I am not sure if your “old Windows XP computer” will be able to run Windows 7.
At the very minimum your computer would need 1 GB of RAM, a Ghz range processor and Direct X 10 compatible graphics card. Unless your old PC was built fairly recently (say in the last 4-5 years or so), it’s fairly unlikely that it will be able to run 7 without some significant upgrades.
you cant`t take files already installed and install them in another comp. so, just find the way to get it online
Your license is only good for the laptop.
You cannot move Windows 7 to another computer.
You must purchase another copy with license.
I hope this helps
