OSUV Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hey cntrylvr79, If you purchased your laptop after October 26, 2006 you may be able to upgrade to Vista for $0.00. Yes Free. What brand and model do you have? I can find out if it qualifies. But again, you had to have purchased it after 10/26/06. Let me know, Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cntrylvr79 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Na doesn't qualify bought it 2 days before I left best butt back in July. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmy303 Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Smart-assey-ness? Nah, I'm just grumpy. Hangovers do that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaisanNYC Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Bad joke I guess..... Sorry I'll remove it. Hey man! it's all good! I was just kidding! I can take it as good as I can give it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OSUV Posted January 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 Yeah cntrylvr79, Same here. I bought my HP notebook at Worst Buy in July of 06 too. I heard that Vista is much more secure than XP and that it is much better at troubleshooting your own computer problems so that you won't need to contact customer support so quickly. We'll see how that goes. Have a good weekend everyone. Cheers, Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaisanNYC Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 I bought my laptop in June 06 and tried to upgrade "free" through HP's site for Vista, and the very last page asked me to send/fax/email in a copy of the receipt. Dangit! LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OSUV Posted January 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 PaisanNYC, I did the same thing. Damn them. Now if I can just figure out a way to alter the date on the receipt...oops are the Microsoft Police monitoring this site? You didn't just read that DucatiBoy. This post not for your eyes only!

My luck someone would check into it and I'd end up having to actually give microsoft money directly out of my pocket. Ohwell xp works fine on this thing. Enough thread highjacking I guess.
