Installing Windows 8 from Vista
Hi All.
Can you help me install W8 on my Studio XPS 1640 (32 bit)?
I am currently running on Vista and my laptop is aging at 5 times the rate I am. I tried to install all the latest drivers onto my laptop and then install W8 from the supplied DVD, but to no avail. Apparently the system was not suitable.
Regards
D

The system was not suitable? What did it say about the system, something about the processor or?

You should check if the Windows8 DVD with you is 32bit or 64bit.If it is 64bit,it may not work with your PC
