Installed IE9, but looks like IE7.

[Cyanide]

Okay.

So after following the steps given to me from DellMekh on my previous IE9 Topic (link below)
http://www.sevenforums.com/windows-...6-cant-install-ie9-unknown-error-windows.html, I was able to install IE9. But the logo for IE7 and the taskbars at the top still look the same as IE7. Is this supposed to happen? Or is IE9 not installed properly? And it performs 100x faster like IE9 would.

Regards,

Download Security Check by screen317 from
http://screen317.spywareinfoforum.org/SecurityCheck.exe
or http://screen317.changelog.fr/SecurityCheck.exe
Save it to your Desktop.
Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

This will show if you have IE9 or not.

So you see you don't have IE9 installed yet

 

[Cyanide]

I tried installing it this time from the microsoft website and it didn't work..

 

[Cyanide]

And just now with Windows Update, and it failed.

 

[Cyanide]

Anything else you guys?

Did you do my suggestions?

 

[Cyanide]

Yea. I found 3 more updates that needed to be done, but the IE9 one still wouldn't work. Im starting to wonder if the reason I can't Upgrade to Home Premium is because of this issue.

With all the problems you have, I think you might have to reinstall Windows Starter with custom install, then use the Home Premium key you have in Anytime Upgrade, then recover your files from Windows.old folder in C:

 

[Cyanide]

How do I do that?

 

[AC]

Download a Windows 7 ISO (perferably Home Premium) since it's the smallest, here Official Windows 7 SP1 ISO from Digital River « My Digital Life And use this Create Windows 7 Universal ISO With All Editions Selection On Install with ei.cfg Removal Utility « My Digital Life to make a Universal disc. Select Starter, activate with your product key, then use anytime upgrade to go to Home Premium. Or, you could just use the Home Premium ISO, but I wouldn't since we don't know your key works with your system. Use this tool to make the USB or DVD Microsoft Store Online

 

[Cyanide]

Are you sure that's safe? I'll go to a technician and see what he/she has to say.

 

[AC]

It's safe, as that is how I reinstalled my Home Premium and Ultimate when the manu. didn't give me restore discs.... just use the product key you have to activate.

 

[Cyanide]

uhm, alright then. I'll see what happens, but I will need to backup my data right?

 

[AC]

You don't need to backup if you don't format your hard drive. They'll be in Windows.old, but if you wipe your hard drive, you'll need to backup.

 

[Cyanide]

Alright then.
