In any event, you shouldn't continue to use Windows Vista, which hasn't received security updates since April 2017.

But, if you are willing to pay for a Windows 10 upgrade that may fail, here are directions (see /ycjsmwn3). Even if it is compatible with Windows 10, it may not work with future updates, so I recommend that you buy a new PC. Any PC running Windows Vista is at least 10 years old and is unlikely to be compatible with the latest version of Windows 10. Is it possible to upgrade my HP Pavilion PC from Windows Vista to Windows 10?Ī.

(For a comparison of the two operating systems, see /ufevaa8). However, if you like Windows 7, which was designed to be used with a mouse, you may not like Windows 8.1, which was designed to be used with a touch screen, although it can also be used with a mouse. And Windows 8.1 will receive security updates until Jan. Windows 8 debuted two years before you bought your Windows 7 PC, so you can upgrade to Windows 8.1 (the version now available.) A Google search for 'buy Windows 8.1' lists about a dozen offers to sell it.

It's not on Gateway's list of PCs that can be upgraded to Windows 10, so can I upgrade to Windows 8.1 instead (assuming I can find a copy)?Ī.
