• HP Envy 15t: 8.1 Windows Installer Clean in the hard drive model GPT without losing the RECOVERY partition

  Always I try to format my windows partition, I get the following error:

  Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is the GPT partition style.

  So I'd like a clean install of Windows 8.1 without changing the style of hard drive or in bulk my RECOVERY partition.

  OBS.: I just can I perform boot after you disable UEFI and Secure Boot.

  @lucasc ,

  Hello and thanks for the display on the HP support forums.  You will not be able to do it without damaging the recovery partition.  If you want to do a fresh install on your system, use the system recovery.

  If this isn't the case, you will install the operating system of your choice.  So before you send that the laptop came with the operating system, and you supported drivers for the operating system you want to install.

  If this isn't the case, you will not be able to find in driver support and you end up with hardware problems.  The drivers are built for laptop based on the OS that it was released with and they are owners.

  I hope this helps.  Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

• HPE-475UK: 10 Windows Installer Clean

  As thousands - or should I say millions - I was informed that my PC is eligible for the microsoft Windows 10 update.

  App W10 conducted its analysis and reports there is no conflict other than Windows Media Center that would be uninstalled.

  I am pessimistic and believe all this seamless up to this day, etc. - so I think I will sit this awhile--after all, I've got 12 months.

  Assuming I want to move forward to a point I have a few questions haunt me.

  1.

  The Hauppauge TV tuner will probably not work. Otherwise, it should be a pretty seamless upgrade of Windows 7.

  I did it on an old socket 775 PC with an Intel Cor 2 E8400 processor and it was smooth sailing.

  I would add that the old system of target was gaming grade (mobo ASUS CRosshair IV Rampage) with a 120 GB SSD installed as a startup disk. Upgrade your system to a SSD boot is a thing, you might want to.

• Problems with iTunes re-Setup - "there is a problem with this Windows Installer package"

  I tried to re - install iTunes with the latest version because I had received an "error 7" message instead of iTunes. You had covered the steps to uninstall and reinstall iTunes by removing iTunes, Quicktime, and other applications on my computer. I had uninstalled iTunes and Quicktime, but when I tried to uninstall the Apple software update, I get the following error message:

  "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your supplier of staff or the package of support ".

  How am I supposed to fix my problem with iTunes, so I can download music if I couldn't uninstall programs I need to uninstall? Can I try reinstalling iTunes at the moment? Please let me know what I can or can't do.

  Specific file names are mentioned in the error messages?

  Here is the standard advice for dealing with problems of installation of iTunes.  Because you are having trouble to uninstall one or more of these applications, you must use Windows Installer Cleanup mentioned below or Free Revo Uninstaller to uninstall applications difficult.

  Caution: Cleanup utility Windows Uninstaller has been removed from Microsoft download servers because sometimes it seems more removed he was supposed to (I believe this was linked to Office uninstall).  You can still get Windows Installer Cleanup here--> http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html utility if you use it, you must create a restore point from the system first (or back up the registry with C:\WINDOWS\ERUNT).  An image full disc would be safer if you have this ability.

  If these steps do not help, ask for help in the Apple forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_for_windows?view=discussions&tagSet=1234#/

  Hi once again, fortunately today I bring better news! As a result of a serious lack of assistance from Apple themselves, have no idea of "The Tech Guys" in the world PC and extremely unnecessary hours at Microsoft, I've sorted it me. In other words, the main problem with mine was the Apple Software Updater. Even with "Revo" I was unable to remove it. I decided to download "Windows Installer Clean Up" from there where I could find (it was also free!). I used it and immediately found, I could choose the Apple Software Updater and remove it with very little hassle in all. I proceed to download the new iTunes, and I'm a very happy Bunny! Thanks for nothing, Microsoft and Apple! Hope this helps - Dan

  You have a hard drive partition to do - but you would need to contact/see the FAQ from the hardware manufacturer (HP, Dell, Gateway, Lenovo, etc) to see if and how.

  Otherwise - you might have to order (pay for possibly) the factory restore/recovery of the value of the manufacturer.

• dm1z-3000 | SSD drive not found when cleaning Windows Installer

  Greetings-

  Had this dm1z-300 in recent years. Works like a charm to destination (navigation, messaging, presentations). Wanted to inject some new life into it. Bought a 120 GB SanDISK SSD. Out of the old HD (5400 RPM SATA 3), SSD format on another machine (NTFS) before falling in the dm1z. Restarted with Windows 7 Pro Installer on USB. At through the early stages of Setup very well, but once he gets to the part of installation actually (i.e., where it starts to copy the files), I am told that "no hard drive have been found.

  Drive is fine (tested using case of external hard drive on a couple of machines), so it's not the drive. Controller is fine, since everything works great if I put the old drive back in place.

  So, what's the problem? Tried to jump into the BIOS to see if there was anything I needed to "change", but the BIOS on this machine is lower even rudimentary - there nothing I can find that transforms a HD (or most other devices, by the way), works.

  Suggestions?

  [SOLVED]

  1\ put an SSD drive in the machine

  2 started GParted Live

  3\ astonished all the partitions on the SSD drive - in other words, returend it completely unallocated State

  4 restarted with the installer of Windows 7 on USB - which is now the disc.

  So, apparently, formatting the drive * before * trying the Windows installation is causing problems. Of course, your results may vary.

  Now, just to tweak the settings on the SSD, but at least I had a limiting step rather key (difficult to install a BONE when he does not see the drive!  ;-)

• Re-installation of Windows 7 (clean version) on the RC520 Samsung cell phone

  When Re-installing Windows 7 (clean version) on laptop Samsung RC520 everything is going well except at the end, shows Device Manager: -.

  Ethernet controller, network controller, PCI Simple Communications controller and SM Bus controller as having no drivers installed (code 28)

  Of course this means that the laptop is unable to communicate in any way

  Can anyone help with a solution please

  The Samsung website (for your region) should have the required drivers for download if W7 itself does not provide them. You have access via another PC to download?

• I have a black and white 2 on windows installation error 7...

  I have a black and white 2 on windows installation error 7...

  things are running smoothly for me until the last part... that says "black and white 2 cannot install. your system has not changed. Re-run the installer to try again. "Error: the filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect"

  guys what should I do... Please help me... I like this game very much

  I tried to disabled my firewall and antivirus to install this game... OO with regard to the compatible thinggy that I n tried yet coz I can't even install the game in my lappy windows7...

  
  

  guys what should I do... pls help >< i="" love="" this="" game="" so="">

  If it isn't your game, then the Compatibility Center W7 says that is not compatibile. But it seems there are other versions that can run.

  Make sure that your installation discs (if his coming to a CD/DVD) are all the scratches/dirt free and clean. A bad scratch or dirty mark on a disc can cause 'odd questions' sometimes.

  There are a few things to try:

  1. find the Setup program you are running for the game and which run in XP compatibility mode.

  2 in case of failure too and then try to run it in XP Compat mode and as administrator.

  I noticed there are a few paths on the www, if you get it installed, it may be an idea to get patches and install them to the best game(check AV before installing).

   

• Windows Installer Cleanup Utility cannot run because corrupt Microsoft installation Service

  I can't get the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility to run, I get an error message "the Microsoft Installer could not access the Service."  I tried re-registration of the service nothing is done.  I work on a customer's computer and can not get KB2467173 or Windows Live Essentials update, so I am unable to run internet explore in the standard 32-bit functionality.

  I would avoid reinstalling Windows if possible.

  Note: Windows Installer Cleanup utility is no longer supported and is not available via a Microsoft page.

  Comment: If your client is in the habit of running "Registry cleaners", a clean installation of Windows will be your only recourse.

• I can't install Windows XP SP3. Windows Installer of my computer is buggy and I can't fix it.

  Title really says it all, but I guess I can go into the details here.  I'm trying to update my PalmOne M505 to work with Windows XP.  I have the .exe file.  It uses Windows Installer to install so I can read my M505 with XP.  Problem: Windows Installer is completely planted on my computer for some reason any.

  On a related note, I can't install updates; probably due to the installer of Windows being broken.  I followed the instructions on the page to support to the letter (and the number!), but it does not solve anything.  I could use a little help...

  Even if someone does that send me some kind of update package that does not use Windows Installer...

  And on a side note, what the bajeezus, I chose not only as my profile name!  It should be "Kaos_Lord!"

  Note 2: it is fixed?

  What the heck!  It is an error to Windows XP!  I did not in the Windows 7 forum.

  [This forum is for discussions specific to Windows Update on Win7, Vista, and Windows XP, despite what you see at the top of the page or in the URL. Yes, it's @# $% & confusing! [What were they thought?]

  Backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a network otherwise and before using a USB key that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

• How do I know which programs to take off the windows Installer CleanUp list?

  Windows Installer Cleanup of

  * original title - how do I know which programs to take off the windows Installer CleanUp list? I don't want to uninstall or remove a program that I always use currently__ *.

  Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301 (MS Office only - replaced by the 'Fix It' utility)
  (Note: the Windows CleanUp utility has been replaced by the "Fit It":http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/ )

  The Windows Installer Cleanup utility:
  It was created to correct software installations that failed during the installation process and leaving a bunch of files (including a file name that ends with an extension .msi (= MicroSoft Installer .msi). For example an installation failed MS Office (note I said "failed").
  See: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA011185721033.aspx

  Also if when you installed MS Office you decided at the time you had no need of Power Point and chose not to install it. You find out later you need to make a Power Point presentation, insert the Office CD and try installing PowerPoint and it causes an error.

  The tool using Windows Installer Cleanup will remove damaged installation files (located in C:\Windows\Installer). You then install Office and Power Point, once more, as they are not more present in the list of programs in the Add/Remove Control Panel. But at least this time Office and Power Point will install without errors as the Windows Installer Cleanup utility did what it was designed to do.

  The unfortunate side effect of the cleanup tool is when you select and delete software that works correctly you then will no longer be able to install this software because it is no longer in the Add/Remove Programs list.

  Now as to why there is so many files in the C:\Windows\Installer:
  You will find lots of them. MSI files belong to software such as Java, Microsoft .NET Framework software AV, Norton Ghost, file downloaded during a Windows Update session and so on. It would seem that some software will clean up after itself and deletions, this is the file that were in the folder C:\Windows\Installer. Windows Update failure will create and leave the folders and files behind every time that you try to install the update and so you could end up with a large number of files taking up disk space.

  It could also be a lot of files (is most needed) orphans.
  If you still have the original Windows Installer Cleanup utility, and then by using the msizap (msizap g!) command removes all cached Windows Installer data files that have been orphaned.
