• PC crashed - installation on the new PC or HARD drive

  My PC with one of my installed CC Suite licenses seems to be dead. I am assessing whether I need a new PC or a new HARD drive is internal.

  I have an installation on a Mac (that I want to keep), but I was wondering if I can just download "installing PC" on the new PC or HARD drive and allow with my CC Identifiez_ you?

  Will I need to "deauthorise' previous installation?

  I can not access the software CC deauthorise it manually from the dead PC and wonder if I try to reinstall on a new machine, if the system will say just that I'm over my limit of license because I have not already deauthorised installation?

  Thank you very much

  Yes. You can activate the application Adobe CC on 2 machines.

• Satellite 2410 won't see the new 250 GB hard drive

  I am trying to upgrade the Toshiba 30 GB hard drive that came with the unit to a Western Digital Scorpio Blue 250 GB EIDE drive.
  I get out the swap the 30 GB to 250 GB put in a bootable XP SP3 CD version and nothing - no sign that power came to training.
  The CDROM is trying to write files on the hard disk, but nothing happens.

  Same thing happens when I try to use the pack of 3 CD of Toshiba or the Norton Ghost recovery CD.
  The computer does not see the drive. Put the old 30 GB drive and it starts right now.

  My BIOS settings show set up for EIDE and boot from the CDROM. What I'm missing?

  Hello

  It seems that the BIOS does not recognize the new HARD drive, I suppose that it s too big
  Satellite 2410 series is old and I guess that it will not support larger 120 GB HARD drive because of the 28-bit LBA s

  So try with the smallest HARD drive like 80 or 100 GB.

• 4540 proBook s: Win8 only DVD - new installation language

  Hello
  
  I'm not sure if I send this message to the right forum, but here goes...
  
  VERY SHORT VERSION
  
  About six weeks ago, I bought a 4540 of HP Probook which seems to be a well designed system and which came with pre-installed Win8. Are there instructions available on how to install a new version of Win8 (including partitioning and Recovery, System EFI Win and MS Reserved partitions, formatting etc.) using the DVD titled:
  
  HP
  The operating system DVD
  Windows 8 unilingual (EM)
  
  I found how to install Win8 you use others install DVD and partitioning tools which I did not. Thank you.
  
  LONG VERSION
  
  After encountering a problem starting HP Support kindly sent me a single language of Win8 installation DVD. (As they would send me a recovery DVDs, but I asked if they could send media that would allow me to choose my own partitioning etc. during installation.) However I can't find all the instructions concerning the use of it & it appears Win8/UEFI systems is very different from earlier versions of Windows/BIOS I have previously installed.
  
  UEFI does not seem to see the DVD of SL Win8 bootable in the following scenarios:
  (a) native UEFI. Start secure; Quick start
  (b) native UEFI; Start secure; Disabled quick start
  
  UEFI does see the DVD bootable under the following scenario:
  (c) native UEFI; Secure boot disabled; Disabled quick start
  
  With each of the above scenarios, if I hit F9 to start then select "Boot from EFI file" there are anything on the hard drive.
  
  After starting as per c & selection language element, OS & license I get a display screen partitions. Drive C was on the 4 UEFI system partition, but by selecting the score (or other) gives me the warning:
  
  -Windows cannot be installed on the partition of drive 0 4.
  -Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu.
  
  Maybe this post looks at the UEFI BIOS settings mentioned above (and maybe I chose the wrong settings).
  
  If I go ahead and install it even when the system still will not boot. It is perhaps not surprising because I suspect that the problem is the UEFI boot somewhere - process even if the (in fact all partitions of original 6) EFI system partition always exist and seem to have readable file systems.
  
  I also tried to install Win8 with other UEFI parameters with a lack of similar success. For example. I think that Legacy mode allows to boot from the DVD but does not allow the installation to proceed.
  
  Any help about installing Win8 SL with associated EFI & other partitions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

• Help the new choice of hard drive

  I want to add another hard drive but don't know what to get. No matter what ATA to choose? (100 150 or 300). I'll get my memory in 6400 DDR2 at 800 mhz and eventually upgrade my processor. Like to go to a Quad core or even the slightest line QX. Any advice would be appreciated.

  
  

• Satellite A135 - new installation of HARD drive "windows cannot be configured.

  I have a portable Satellite A135-S4467 with a hard drive failed (WD 160 GB).
  I bought a new hard drive (WD 320 GB).
  When I try to install windows vista (32 bit) on the new hard drive by using the original factory software installation CD toshiba, I get the following error message:
  "windows cannot be configured to run on this computer hardware.

  After reboot, Windows will start normally or in safe mode.
  I updated the BIOS to version 1.9.
  I tried also to install the updated RAID/AHCI drivers of intel to the windows installation, as recommended by the windows forums - I always get the same error message, even after several attempts to completely reinstall windows.

  Several forums, I searched for recommended to change the settings of the HDD (RAID COSM) in the BIOS.
  I don't know how / if to do this. When I enter the BIOS, I see the hard drive, but I can't select it, so I couldn't try it.

  It seems that I've tried everything, without success. I took care to unplug all external/etc devices during the installation as well. I also did all the drivers are for vista 32 bit.

  Help, please!

  Have you tried to install the OS using the Microsoft installation disc?
  There may be a compatibility problem with your new HARD drive.

  Do you get a place another HARD disk capacity not more than 200GB and test it?

• Satellite Pro A210 - error recovery after a new installation of HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a satellite pro 210 (bios v1.6) has died the HARD drive.

  I bought a new WD Scorpio Blue 250 GB HARD drive and ran the reinstall drive (I've done exactly this for a friends Equium a month or so back and all worked flawlessy!)

  Everything worked fine until the first re-boot, went through the usual stuff:
  Please wait a moment while windows starts for the first time
  Then a windows background, spinning slider with waiting message please, much HDD activity
  Then the sudden error:
  "Installation of Windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  Does anyone have ideas, what it might be?
  A google search suggests the sata bios settings, but I do not see in the configuration of the bios page.
  In my view, there is a new bios v2 by download - would this help?
  If so how can I install it when the computer does not start vista? Or any other suggestions?

  Thanks for reading.

  Cheers, Stephen

  Hello

  The SATA driver is not necessary if you use the Toshiba Recovery disk because the image on the recovery disk contains the SATA driver.
  So there must be other reason for it.

  In your case, I recommend setting the BIOS settings by default and start over once the recovery procedure.
  Maybe something went wrong during the configuration of the OS if second installation is worth a try

• Portege M400 unable to find the new 320 GB HARD drive

  Hello

  I'm moving my 80 GB HARD drive to a new WD 320 and research questions. Although I've updated the Bios with the latest version of the disk hard is not down to any operating system when it is in the main HARD drive Bay. The weird thing is completely visible in the removable Bay. Is this a configuration issue, I am missing or is the machine not reconise the 320 GB drive because that is the essential motivation?

  Any help or pointers would be great

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  In my opinion, your new HARD drive cannot be recognized because of the size of the HARD drive.
  The 320 are simply too. I think that the laptop would be able to use a 100 GB or 120 GB of HARD drive but the 320GB are not supported.

  So change your disk of 320 GB to a smaller size and try again.

  Good luck

• New installation of hard drive on Y510

  I recently bought a bigger hard drive for my Y510 and I wonder how I'll be able to install it because the computer did not come with a recovery disk as would a dell. And I guess there is no way to add the recovery on the new disc either partition? I have tried searching with no will. Any help would be great...

  That's exactly what I did, and it worked like a charm... have not tried restoring to a single key, but I clone the partition of the same size. I encountered an error while trying to boot Windows, but there is nothing that the Vista recovery environment could not fix it for me in a minute or two. I think that the manual fix for this would be to start at a command prompt or from the recovery console and use the commands /fixboot or /fixmbr to take into account the reorganization/resizing partitions.

• Image portable HARD drive for transfer to the new computer portable HARD drive on the same laptop

  Location:

  Laptop was to receive the new HARD drive more big;

  Configuration is complex and has a lot of data and SW engineering.

  Own re - install would take too long.

  In operating systems earlier I just created an image, installed the new HARD disk and restored the image.

  In Vista, it does not. New HARD drive with image does not start. (Partition is correctly selected as active)

  Tried other methods, including Robocopy but without success.

  Sysprep is the right solution? If so, how will this affect users profiles and installed applications?

  Thank you

  Paraxis

  Hi Paraxis,

  Whenever we use the system image and restore from it, the hardware must be same, as has already been made to backup. The hard disk partition should also be in the same size.

  You can use Sysprep on your computer and check if that helps you solve the problem.

  Preparation system (Sysprep) tool is a technology that you can use with other deployment tools to install Windows on new hardware, operating systems. The Sysprep tool prepares a computer for imaging of disc or delivery to a customer of the configuration of the computer to create a new computer security identifier (SID) when the computer is restarted. In addition, the Sysprep tool cleans up user-specific and settings specific to the computer and the data that should not be copied to a destination computer.

  Access the links below for more information on Sysprep.

  Hello

  Contact HP and get the OEM Installation disk and make sure you know your product Code. You need
  the OEM version that everything is fine. You "might" be able to get Windows 7 for your system however
  It will be more 'IFS' available.

• 3110CT: BIOS recognizes the new 20 GB HARD drive

  Just installed a P002608, in a protected 3110CT 20 GB hard drive, now, the BIOS will not recogize the new hard drive.

  Hello

  I think that you will not be able to use this 20 GB HARD drive on this good old classic.
  It seems there is a BIOS limitation and this big HDD will usually not recognized by the BIOS.

  Remember that the Portege 3110 (P311E) has been delivered with a 6 GB HARD drive!
  There is a huge difference between the 20 GB and 6 GB of HARD drive!

  In my opinion you should try other drives that support a smaller size

• HP Notebook: the new laptop HP hard drive partitions

  In my previous PC, I split the drive into 2 partitions: 1 for the OS and the other for my data, so that I can made the recovery of the operating system without losing my data. Do the same thing on my HP laptop? How can I do? And, if I managed to create 2 partitions of the hard drive (1 TB), 1 for the operating system (windows 10 Home) and the other for my files and data, I'll be able to recover the operating system? Sorry for the bad English and I thank you.

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  When you look at the player on this new laptop, you will see that there is already several partitions on it - because it is very probably in the GPT format, not the MBR formatting you are used to.

  That said, you could reduce the OS partition to add a partition of data, as you did in the past.

  You must use a tool of partitioning for this, which one is this: Best Free Partition Manager for Windows | MiniTool Partition free

  As for power, then later use the HP Recovery Manager - probably not.  While it might work, one of the first things that is completely reformat the hard drive and will erase everything you have saved on this subject - and it will reformat the drive to match the original settings in the process.

  Good luck
