• Aspire 5600u: someone has installed an ssd on this AIO?

  Hi, I am considering buying an a TB Drive (SSD) to replace the original HD 5400 cramped. I am interested in the MX 300 essential and the Samsung 850EVO, but do I SATA II or SATA III or is it important? The Samsung comes with cloning software, but most is not. I think the real replacement/installation process is without problem, but the cloning of BONE, the programs and data is another question. Also, I heard that the BIOS should be changed too.  Any suggestions on a better SSD or the best products of cloning? I hear that free Macrium Reflect is good.

  BIOS didn't need to be tweaked during the installation of an SSD, only windows OS (7 and more) automatically add a few settings (disabling of defragmentation is the first thing to do to not kill your SSD).

  your AIO supports SATA 6 GB/s (SATA III) and there is no issue about 1 TB of storage.

  on cloning, there are plenty of free software around but to be honest, I still prefer a clean install when switching to the SSD HARD drive, but I understand the galley to reinstall everything.

• Aspire V5 - 552g clean installed Windows 7, overheating

  My Aspire V5 - 552 g died a while ago (completely failed hard disk).  It came with Windows 8, but I didn't have the windows key after installing a new hard drive so I installed Linux instead.

  Anyway, with the upgrade of Windows 10 is about to expire, I thought that I should enjoy it while I can.  I managed to get a key of Windows 7 pro at work, and I installed Windows 7 this weekend (dual boot with Linux).  Windows has initially didn't show 'no network device' but I have the drivers wifi from somewhere and so now I can connect.  But obviously, there are problems of driver with Windows 7.

  The problem I have now is the laptop overheats and crashes in an hour (from total cold startup).  It's certainly a Windows problem is not a hardware problem, as I'm still running intense applications on Linux without any problem.

  I guess it's a driver problem, and so my initial plan has been completely updated from Windows and I hope that, somewhere in there are a few updates to the driver.  However, the laptop dies before it will be updated.  Same question so I'm trying the update up to 10 or just 7.

  The drivers listed on page Acer for the V5 - 552 g are all for Windows 8, which I do not know do not work with Windows 7.

  Any suggestions?  (and sorry if this is a repeat, I look in the forums but couldn't find the same question, if it has already been answered please tell me here if?).

  Install windows 8.1

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  You need not key windows 8.1.  The key will be automatically removed from the UEFI/BIOS during installation.

  After you have installed windows 8.1, check to see if there is a BIOS update,

  http://www.Acer.com/AC/en/us/content/drivers

  Then update Windows 10.

  Note: If you have changed your UEFI to legacy mode and to return to default UEFI, then search the forum because it is literally hundreds of messages on how to install 8.1 for Windows or Windows 10 with RUFUS. (or just create your installation on a computer UEFI support).

  You may be able to install directly windows 10 If you do a few google searches.

• Clean install SSD - OWC?

  I'm a late 2012 Mac mini server that I use as a desktop computer. Last week, I replaced one of the disks 1 to with an OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro 6 G 120 GB. OWC seems to be well-regarded and that was their player compatible with my most popular mini, I swapped the 1 TB for the SSD without problem.

  I had previously done a clean install on the disk of 1 TB of my mini and I am familiar with the creation of a Setup disk, I tried to do a clean install again on the SSD that failed (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7592029).

  Finally, I had a recovery Partition installed which took my slow rural connection of many hours, and let me go back to Mavericks, then I was an upgrade of the El Capitan 10.11.5.

  Is that the reason for the new thread, I am uncomfortable that I cannot do a clean install with this SSD and trying to determine if this is the exact model, brand or a problem with SSD in general is the problem (I even tried a second disc of this model). I even though it is possible that the 10.11.5 install was the question, but I tried installing to an SD card in my mini, which went without a hitch and I could start it.

  So, for those who have done a 'clean install' on a 3rd party SSD, they added to their machine:

  Were you able to complete the installation without error?

  Do you have what version of Mac OS X installed?

  What brand and model of the Player did you use?

  What Mac model you have?

  I am trying to root out, why it does not work and if it's just the brand / model of the disk or something more, any other idea you can offer would be helpful. I want a drive that I can do a clean install, 10.11.5 at least for the moment and I hope to new OS X that are coming (I know that no one can guarantee that).

  -Thank you

  Who say replace with the SSD? The bottom (nearest the black cover on the bottom) or the top? Some users have reported problems with an SSD in the upper Bay.

• New SSD - clean install USB 10.11.5 fails

  I have a mini Mac 2012 delay servier I use as a desktop computer. He had more storage that I needed if I swapped the boot with an OWC Mercury Extreme Pro 6 G SSD drive in the lower Bay, I left a second 1 TB drive 'data' in the upper Bay. The exchange took place without a hitch. I have rebuilt then key USB 3.0 I used initially do a clean install on the previous drive, with the latest version of El Capitan, I followed the instructions in this link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372

  I unplugged everything except power, network, monitor mini displayport and USB drive built above. I then start the USB key, select disk utility and erase the disc SSD - Mac OS extended (journaled) and name it MacIntosh HD. Then I continue with the installation by choosing MacIntosh HD as the startup disk.

  All apparently okay for about 5 minutes and then stops at "about a second remaining", he is sitting here for about 5 minutes and then goes to "0 seconds remaining", he is sitting here for a few minutes and then it reports "an error occurred during the preparation of the installation. Try to rerun this application".

  I experienced this about half a dozen times, after a few times, I've downloaded again the file install El Capitan and recreated the USB installation drive. I let it run all night and the result is the same, there is always activity in the newspaper, but same result. I also ran on the SSD health check after that deletion and he gets a healthy ratio.

  Before the error of the last entry in the log is "error writing to Volumes/MacIntosh HD/OS X Install Data / minstallconfig.xml".

  If I come back in disk utility after the MacIntosh HD volume error is more rose. I read that if OS X sees an SSD and a Standard disc, it can try to create a hybrid car, but you can skip this process and have just a SSD drive. I also see an entry in the log that the second disc "failed, volume-tick" because "this disk is used for Time Machine backups". (I have a backup disk of another computer).

  Anyway, looking for help. I'll copy the log for the next post, I can also call Macsales support but wanted to start here. Thank you...

  Edit: Sorry about the police, copied from Notes

  The paper is long enough, decided to wait to see if someone actually wanted to see.

  

• How to do a clean install of El Capitan on new ssd?

  I bought a new SSD to replace the SATA drive in my Macbook Pro for mid-2010. I am running Yosemite. What I want to do, is to do a clean install of El Capitan on the SSD. I also bought a pregnant and plan on the use of the old drive as an external backup.

  I need some advice: after installing the ssd in the MBP and the old drive in the box, I intend to plug the old drive for the MBP, format the SSD drive and then use a reader flash which I did the Setup file of El Capitan to a clean of El Capitan for the SSD install and then use the Migration Wizard to migrate applications and files from the old drive.

  Is there a better way? Maybe install the SSD in the enclosure first, connect to the MBP, then shaped and do cleaning installation of El Capitan?

  All advice is appreciated.

  installing the SSD in the pregnant first, connect to the MBP, then shaped and do clean install of El Capitan?

  It's better. Some of these Macs experience problems after surgery. The new installation using the outside doing will give you confidence that it works before surgery, and no problem introduced by surgery can be separated from issues of installation and update. It will install and run in an external, just may be a little slow.

• Clean install on new SSD?

  Hey people,

  New on the Apple Forum, hope it's ok to post this question here and in the forum of the iMac. My question:

  I recently acquired an older iMac Early 2008 (8.1). Currently it has 1 GB of RAM and a HARD drive that is extremely crowded. I just bought a 2x2gb memory kit for it, and decided that I had, I will do a clean full of Snow Leopard and then level installation to El Cap. So I bought a Samsung EVO SSD faithful and a SSD IcyDock Mount for it. I also bought a DVD of Snow Leopard from Apple, since I couldn't find the original. All that from the road, here's my question:

  I want to do an installation clean full of Mac OS X on the SSD, no cloning, no record of the files, nothing. The old HARD drive, as mentioned, is packed with the previous unwanted users. I read through loads of tutorials and whatnot on the web and can not find a concise answer to how to proceed. Some say it just install the SSD drive, format it with disk utility, and then start the DVD (not literally). Some say, create a USB bootable upgrade downloaded OS X .dmg file. And so on.

  Can someone tell me, as a former PC user, new iMac user, what to do in this situation?

  Question side: is it possible to go directly to El Cap instead of go through Snow Leopard to get there?

  What I have:

  -New Snow Leopard DVD

  -new SSD

  -old HDD (installed)

  -many readers of an inch, if necessary

  Thanks in advance!

  Make a USB of El Capitan key would be the easiest way to address the issue.

  First, install this RAM upgrade on the iMac, as you will need speed. Once you have done this, start the computer normally, open the app store and download OS X El Capitan from the Appstore, so you can do a flash USB drive out of it.

  Once El Capitan finished download, download DiskMakerX here

  http://diskmakerx.com

  This program will automatically create an El Capitan bootable flash drive that you use to install El Capitan on the computer.

  After the program ends and creates your USB key, turn off the computer, remove the old HDD and throw in the SSD you bought.

  Now that you've done all this, plug the flash drive into the Mac and hold down the ALT key and select the flash drive to boot from the flash drive and install OS X El Capitan on your mac.

  Once he finishes the installation, you're done! You will then be presented the OS X install screen and you're ready to start using your computer!

  I hope this helps! Answer please if you have any other questions.

• Help with a clean install of W7 upgrade DVD on SSD student.

  A 32-bit Vista running, upgrading to 64 - bit by doing a clean install on another drive (SSD).  It works fine, except that the old man is still "System" drive and I can't start with the SSD as boot drive.  And when I boot the old disk I have the option to load Vista or W7.

  I'm confused on what actually the upgrade disc.  Do I have some of the Vista on the SDS files to get W7 to install correctly - or is a new installation, a clean install?  I guess I'm looking at another facility (~ 6 hrs.) because I don't have my drive correctly partitition or something.

  I've never had this problem before loading a new OS.  I don't know if it's the SSD, the upgrade method used or old age which is the cause of my problem.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• Clean install of Windows 10 on Aspire E3 - 574 G does not download executable files

  Hello

  Hope that get responses. A few weeks back I brought a new laptop Acer Aspire E5 - 547g here in Sweden. I have my own MSDN subscription and decided the get rid of default Windows 10 OS I had with the laptop. I downloaded the copy (Enterprise) MSDN and installed a clean place. Then I started to deal with the problems. Any browser that I use, I can't download executable files on the internet. Her work very well with zip files but executable can't do. I put avast license but could not able to download the installation from their site. Not only avast, I can't download any executable. The download will for centuries without updating of the progressbar. If I try to download using download managers, the download is 99% blockage. I've formatted the OS and installed clean several times. I tried different versions of MSDN Windows 10, the result is the same. I was frsutrated on it. I real need is supported now. I hope that I'm not the only one who has experienced this situation.

  "I didn't understand most of your answer." What is my English or the technical parts. With a MSDN and several copies I'm assuming you'd understand.

  With all your changes, the common factors are only the BIOS and an external firewall/router. So if you have a second PC on the same subnet it is the same way or it downloads the extensions correctly.

  BTW when you say 'clean install' are reformat you the drive first?

• Which applications and drivers get I need once I clean installed my Acer Aspire One 725 Windows 10?

  I already upgraded my Acer Aspire One 0725-10 Windows.  However, it seems to be an incompatibility with some of my courses installed applications and drivers that several questions.  Microsoft support reviewed my concerns and concluded that a clean install of windows 10 would be the way to go.  Before doing this, it would be probably good get applications and drivers that will be needed after the installation.  If anyone can provide me with a list, it would be greatly appreciated.

  Most of the drivers will be updated by windows update when connected to the web.

  on the applications, I think that Acer launch Manager is required to use the Fn keys:

  http://global-download.Acer.com/GDFiles/application/LaunchManager/LaunchManager_Acer_8.00.8101_W81x6...

  but... I read some discussions on the issues on windows 10 with Acer launch manager, worth a try to install.

  to check if all the drivers are installed and work properly, after verifying that all updates are installed:

  Key of the Windows logo + x
  Click on Device Manager

  If the yellow exclamation point is present
  Double click on it
  Choose the tab "Details".
  in the drop-down list, select HardwareIDs

• Can I clean install on HP vista 32 to Win 7 Professional 64 with new ssd dv3

  Can someone tell me please

  I have 2 questions:

  1: if I enter new SSD in my pavilion dv3, running on vista 32-bit, can I then install new version recently purchased windows 7 Professional 64-bit instead of 32 bit installation, or should it be 32-bit. ?

  2: I printed a Wiindows 7 upgrade report and it says that my processor is: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU [email protected] with 3 GB of memory and it says my upgrade options are 32-bit windows 7 Home premium or ultimate. This does not change and will it work with the professional version, because it will be a clean install on a new ssd?

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated

  Hello:

  The T6500 is a 64-bit processor.

  As a result, you should have no problem upgrade from Vista 32 bit to W7 64-bit.

  You must start from the W7 x 64 installation DVD.  You cannot run it from a 32-bit windows desktop.

  When you get to the install window now and click Next, the upgrade option will be grayed out.

  You must perform a custom (clean) installation when moving from a 32-bit to a 64-bit operating system.

  I'm not quite sure on why it is said that you cannot move to W7 Pro if you can upgrade to W7 Ultimate.

• What drivers needed for re - activate keyboard Aspire V5-551? Multiple copies to Device Mgr: cleaning?

  What drivers need to be reinstalled (or removed) to reactivate the internal keyboard on an Aspire V5-551? The original keyboard driver where accidentally deleted.  I already reinstalled the driver Dritek RF button (Radio controller).
  Except for the internal keyboard, PC works very well using an external keyboard (or the on-screen keyboard) and a wireless Logitech mouse.  Device Manager appears to show multiple copies of the drivers. Cleaning is needed?

  Hello IronFly,

  After your comment, I replaced the keyboard and the PC now works fine.  Thank you very much for the solution.

  Moreover, I ordered the keyboard via Amazon MarketPlace, it came directly from China for a price incredibly low of c$ 17. It took 3 weeks, but the delay was worthwhile because he saved the computer.

• Try to do a clean install of Windows 7 to new SSD, would like to know if I can use the same product key.

  Original title: re-install Windows 7

  Hello. I recently built my own PC and installed a purchased copy of Windows 7 hard disk. I'm upgrading to an SSD 120 GB and I was wondering if there was a way completely erase my old hard drive for all files and all re - install windows using my CD key and product. I heard that once you use the product key, the copy of Windows is 'married' to this hard drive and the key cannot be used anywhere else. Is this true? Basically, I'm doing a clean install on this new SSD. Thank you.

  Not at all, you can erase and reinstall Windows as many times as you want as long as you have the product key.  The only restriction is that the key can be used only on one computer at a time.  Unless this key is used somewhere else, you can install a billion times.  The key is what you pay for, not the CD (in fact, if you lose the CD you can download another copy, but you need to keep your secret key).

  In any case, the process is simple: just put in the CD and restart and follow the steps to install.  When you get calls that lead to install on, you have options to format (erase) the drive and basically start over completely.

  The only real thing you need to know is that, after the installation, you will need to go to the computer manufacturer's website and download the drivers for your computer.  According to the computer, you may need to get the driver of network from another computer and copy it using a flash drive (if the network needs the driver before it can connect).
