    Updating older Dell laptops from Vista and 7 to newest version of windows


    So I am trying to upgrade my windows on 2 of my older model dell laptops one with vista and the other with windows 7 I believe after having my new ones screen break and me not wanting to buy another one. Especially seeing as I have 2 older Dell laptops thàt are in perfect condition. Well aside from having obsolete versions of windows and needing to have the most current versions installed on them that is. So what steps do I need to take to put the newest version of windows which I have on my newer but broken laptop and install it on my 2 older ones and use them instead of buying yet another n

    Who has seen this vista update error

    When you go to Windows vista update and it tell you to update a driver that you have already updated. Then it says failed to update and gives you the error code that tell you that you already have a never version than that. WTF? Why in the world would it be trying to updated something with an older driver. Well the only way to get it out of your windows update list is to go uninstall what ever that driver is then run the update and install it. Then run the newer drivers again.

    Well I still can't get the Nivida Network Bridge to disappear out of the list. I uninstall the one in device manager and go to the update and before it's even done with that. Vista is automatically installing a newer version than is in the Vista update list.......
