  I live in England and I need to buy an Alienware 17 High Spec model with Windows 7 Pre - installed.

  There might be a straight forward application but is not only everything I keep being told its only available with 8.1 is o/s.

  I checked on the web site of the United Kingdom and there under the heading:-features & Design

  Available with Windows 7 Home Premium - for a smooth and flexible PC experience.

  Can someone please confirm that this computer is available with 7 o/s or it is not can you please remove the ad as its very confusing.

  In reading the other topics on this forum its very clear that this is not a simple re install with 7 o/s and not the kind of thing you do when you buy a new computer.

  This computer is not for domestic use and is to be used on board the ship have been around computers run 7 o/s.

  Thank you very much for your reply and I contact sales in the States and it is possible for me to buy a MX 17 or 18, but it must be shipped to an address in the States. It's ok since we do not have an office in Seattle.

  However, as it must then be sent reports to the United Kingdom this means I would pay extra delivery customs cost plus so it would not be worth extra costs involved. For the only options that I can see who is available to me buy a non Dell machine or buy a used machine, on Ebay with low spec with windows 7 installed, or the purchase of a UK machine then installing windows 7 Professional our me however, I understand it's not a simple as that.

  I thought it would be a right task replacing one of the computers on our ships, but its clear sound far right forward, why is the possibility to buy the o/s 7 available only to States.

• Set the level of a laptop for Windows 8 from a Windows 7 have a performance difference that buying a laptop with Windows 8 pre - install?

  OK, so I was about to buy a laptop, I really wanted to for the last few months. But yesterday, my father told me about windows 8 and that it would be better to wait until it comes out to get a laptop with her already pre-installed. I found the offer of $15.00 for the upgrade to windows 8, plus I also get the great back to school discounts. My father always tells me that it is much better to do it with it already installed... -Is this worth the wait?

  Hello

  I would recommend you take advantage of the offer of discounts for Windows 8.

  Normally, it would be better to buy a computer with the latest version of Windows pre-installed because the computer could be certified to run the pre-installed operationg system.

  However, in this case, all the computers that are available with the upgrade of $15 are all designed to run the final version of Windows 8.

  If you buy windows 7 preinstalled, it can only be used in the computer.  If you want to install 7 on your computer, you will need to purchase a license upgrade (I think Home Premium 120 USD.)

• New computer with Windows 7 Pro installed - also came with disks to Windows 8 Pro - what I lose everything?

  I recently bought a new computer. It was announced to come with Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8 Pro. Since the announcement, I assumed that it would be implemented for a dual-boot (something that I have never made or used it before).

  In another section of this community, I have posted a question, "what happens first – the chicken or the Egg," asking if I would like to transfer my data and applications before that upgrade to Windows 8 or after. I received responses almost half a dozen all recommend that I transferred my files prior to upgrade. With the new software of practice by hand and using a cable standard CAT5, I transferred all my files, including data and most of my applications, my old computer to the new computer. The transfer takes about six hours and I had about an hour of work later to install my pst, BOINC, Malwarebytes, etc..

  I decided that today would be the day and I would upgrade to Windows 8. There are three disks to:

  1. the claims & recovery of pilots

  2. system recovery disk for operating

  3 supplemental Recovery Disc

  However, when reading the attached brochure, there is a warning very clear that if I use these discs, I lose all my apps and data and will have to start from scratch. In many previous editions of Windows, I remember using upgrade disks. Recovery disks were what I did when I first installed the new computer.

  So, I ask, this is the only way I can achieve this? Am I condemned to throw seven hours of work? Y there is a place, less painful alternatives?

  Thank you

  Steve

  Unfortunately, this is how the work of recovery discs, they do not operate like retail disk that will give you the ability to dual boot.

  Your options are limited.

• How can I copy a full hard drive from Windows 7 Professional to a new laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed home?

  I have a laptop with Windows 7 Professional older and want to keep my programs and files intact and transfer to a new laptop, with Windows 7 Home, pre-installed.

  First try the image restore option. If that does not work, use your professional Windows 7 disc and boot from it, delete all partitions, then attempt to restore image.

  Don't forget: save your Home Premium installation before doing any of this.

• Several BSOD on a new laptop computer with windows 8 is installed

  Hi all

  I got a new laptop ASUS G750jx two weeks ago and have had accidents since the first day.

  So far, I have tried various hardware diagnostic tools:

  Memtest - it ran for 19 hours in multi-threaded mode, made 11 passes and had no error

  Intel diagnostic tool - found no errors

  SeaTools - had no errors

  Fumark, 3dmark - without problems

  Ran system with controlled driver enabled, had accidents, but all associated with nt kernel and doesn't really give much information (I had updated to windows 8.1 right here)

  A few days before the reset everything back to the factory settings and had more luck getting references to specific drivers in minidumps, such as sortport.sys, dxgkrnl.sys and nvlddmkm.sys. Obviously, tried all latest drivers on the website of the manufacturer, but problems persist.

  Unfortunately I deleted the latest dumps, so I enclose precedents

  DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)

  This indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory with a high IRQL.

  A driver tried to access a pageable (or that is completely invalid) address while the IRQL was too high. This bug check is usually caused by drivers who used a wrong address.

  BugCheck D1, {ffffffffffffff85, 2, 1, fffff880043a646c}

  We can see the 1st parameter is completely false and is in no way a valid address. We can check this:

  0: kd >! ffffffffffffff85 pte
  GO ffffffffffffff85
  PXE to the EPP of FFFFF6FB7DBEDFF8 at FFFFF6FB7DBFFFF8 at FFFFF6FB7FFFFFF8 at FFFFF6FFFFFFFFF8 PTE POE

  NFP 11 has 0 - DA - KWEV NFP 1121 - DA - KWEV NPF 11ef - DA - invalid KWEV

  Interesting pile!

  We start somewhere in kernel mode with something going on - 0xfffffa80'12866000. Then we have a video driver nVidia bird call, a core of DirectX notifying a DPC, followed by a series of calls DirectX MMS dealing with all video Planner dealing with Direct Memory Access on a DPC.

  Shortly after that we remove references DMA, we call a pagefault.

  Regarding the statement us failed on:

  ADC byte ptr [rax + rdx-7Dh]

  With deference, we add a pointer that has been stored in the registers rax + rdx .

  -FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: IP_MISALIGNED_dxgmms1.sys

  Misaligned within DirectX MMS instruction pointer.

  ------------------------------------

  1. make sure you have the latest video card drivers. If you are already on the latest graphics card drivers, uninstall and install a version or a few versions behind the last to make sure this isn't a last number one driver. If you have already experienced with the driver of the card later and earlier versions, please try the driver beta for your card.

  2 if the above fails, you have not even need to test if there is a graphics card defective, because it is (or defective Board in general). You must then indicate the manufacturer what I just told you, and they shouldn't give you a hard time... If all goes well.

  Kind regards

• Reformatting laptop computer with Windows pre-installed 8

  Hi all!

  Recently I bought Lenovo Y500 with pre-installed Windows 8. I've never used Windows before 8 and this is my first time ever affected by it. I understand that Microsoft no longer use the activation key of conventional product with Windows 8 pre installed devices. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the activation key is now encrypted and incorporated in the BIOS itself. I also understand that there is a feature of system recovery and even a Clean-Install feature in Windows 8 and Windows 8 would automatically read the activation key in the BIOS while being reinstalled.
  I have read all those who want to reinstall Windows 8 and that the clean install would often suggested, but what happens if I want to reformat the laptop in all, completely destroy everything, delete existing partitions and reinstall Windows 8 after that? From a technical point of view, reformatting and repartitioning shouldn't affect the BIOS, and so I guess that if I had to reinstall Windows 8 after reformatting and repartitioning, installing Windows 8 should read the key of Activation of the BIOS always automatically and activate at the first internet connection. Or am I wrong?
  On a side note, when I bought my laptop, it did not come with the disk Installation of Windows 8, so if I had to reformat and reinstall, where I'd get the file of Installation of Windows 8? Am I supposed to download from the Microsoft Web page (if there is even a link to download it) and burn the image to a blank disc and use it to install?
  Best regards & thanks!
  Patrick

  See my response to a similar q in the thread above...

  You can use DVD or CD, but an external drive or a USB is so much faster and easier.

• If I bought a computer with windows 8 is already installed (windows 8 sucks) can I uninstall it and install windows 7

  If I bought a computer with windows 8 is already installed (windows 8 sucks) can I uninstall it and install windows 7? Windows 8 has to be the worst software ever. It is like going back to the iceage of computers. The LAGS and timing on is horrible. I expect right cruse, that she does not exist. It's like a person driving a car with their foot constantly on the brake.

  You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.
