  My desktop PC is dual boot with XP and Win 7 Pro 32-bit. Both are retail box versions.

  I would replace the partition with Win 7 Pro 64-bit XP. (That I still keep installing Win 7 32 bit legacy hardware that does not work under a compatibility mode).

  Can I install and activate the new 64-bit partition by using the same product key, or is that 32-bit installation fail/break?

  The installation of Windows 8 on a drive separate partition/logic will not affect any aspect of your Windows 7 Professional system. You will need to install all the applications for use with Windows 8 on this system with the system of Windows 8 running. Some people, it is useful to create yet another disk partition separated/logic for their documents, pictures, videos and files of the user. Thay can be shared between the two systems, open and modified either by, according to the needs.

• Dual boot with Windows 7 and LINUX - Tecra A11 (PTSE1A - 005-00L)

  Hello

  I bought a new Tecra A11 computer laptop running WIN7 Pro. I want to install LINUX also. This means that I want to run my laptop in dual boot Win7 Pro/LINUX (a Distributor). Please tell me how to do this.

  There are 5 partitions on the HARD disk:
  1 active, recovery partiton 1.46 GB (without drive letter)
  2. principal asset C: start 145,04 GB (NTFS)
  3. active logics E: 78,13 GB (NTFS)
  4 active logical F: 64.25 GB (NTFS)
  5 primary Partition 9.2 GB (no drive letter, the unknown application)

  Hey, I need because I was admitted to a course of RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer)

  Please help me

  Hello

  I can't give you a step by step explanation, but most distributions offer today a possibility to coexist with Windows.
  When installing the unused free space will be taken by Linux (with the consent of the user of course!)

  What exact configuration you need is impossible for someone else to say, but I would say to make the space occupied by the F player available for Linux.
  You seem to have of enough space for Windows and Linux operating system doesn't have much.

  Some thoughts about setting up your score:

  I touch NOT 1,2 and 5 no matter what. They are your system and a system of internal partitions (recovery and data environment) and wouldn't it be fun to lose.

  1 active, recovery partiton 1.46 GB (without drive letter)
  2. principal asset C: start 145,04 GB (NTFS)
  3. active logics E: 78,13 GB (NTFS)
  4 active logical F: 64.25 GB (NTFS)
  5 primary Partition 9.2 GB (no drive letter, the unknown application)

  Then choose a Distro (Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora and OpenSuse - suggestion Fedora will be as close as possible associated with RedHat) that will guide you in the steps to allocate space for Linux.
  I suggest however to remove the disk F in Windows for Linux does not start from resizing all partitions.
  I do not know which works perfectly, but will just take time, and will most probably remain pretty useless drive F.

  If you have valuable data on your device, make sure to save! No software comes with warranty :)
  Last but not least - make 100% sure to create a collection set using the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator before you start the installation of Linux.
  If something goes wrong you have the opportunity to put the unit in factory condition.

  Good luck and keep asking you if you need extra help!

• Dual boot Win7 disk external eSata M4700 accurately

  Because virtualization does not support some devices of HW, I need, I want to dual boot win7 Pro/64 at a (removable) disk external connected to my accuracy M4700 eSATA port.

  eSata means better performance, but the start menu will be happy with a removable disk, i.e. wrong be connected permanently (obviously I does not start the operating system on the disk hard if it is not connected)?

  And legal, is it possible to use the OEM license of operating system provided with the system for that?

  As a question, are the BONES in a Win7 start menu linked to a physical drive on a specific Sata port? IOW, what happens if I move a HARD disk with a bootable partition / volume of the internal Bay (port 0) to an eSATA external enclosure connected to eSATA (port 5) port? The eSATA port is transparent to the Win7 boot loader? Volumes and drive letters remain unchanged and appear perfectly to the operating system on it?

  Hi Benoitm,

  Assuming the M4700 can boot from an external eSATA port, this should be possible. And it should be possible to install on a HARD drive, then put this drive in an external enclosure and start it. Your preferences and your drive letters must be maintained. You can check that your system can boot from a first external HARD disk.

  The Dell license covers only the version of the operating system that is provided with the system. In theory, the dualboot requires two licenses.

  Tile: CMT Compaq dc7100 Dual Boot, Windows 7 Pro and XP Pro

  Hello everyone.  My computer is adjustable having the dual boot with Windows 7 Pro on disk 0 (320 GB SATA Seagate Barracuda 7200.11) and XP Pro disk 1 (40 GB SATA Samsung SP0411C). As the two systems are available at the start but most all the time Windows 7 Pro would use. The computer is Compaq 7100, WCL PP255US, 3.2 GHZ Intel Pentium 4, 3 GB of ram, Council ch h 0968, bios HP 78 1 v01.05 16/06/2004, chip Intel 915 G Express.  According to the website of Seagate Barracuda 320 GB with (quote), ' he not there no master/slave because every player relationship is considered to be a master in a relationship from point to point.» If two drives are connected to a Serial ATA host adapter, the host operating system considers that the two devices as if they were the two "masters" on two ports separated. Both drives behave as if they were device 0 (master) devices.  On the drive Samsung (SP0411C) I put a jumper for master, it is connected to the motherboard instead of disk 1. Used rider illustrated for Samsung SP0411N since I did not see the SP0411C listed. When selecting information for Samsung Seagate site sometimes showed data for their readers. This is perhaps due to the recent acquisition of Samsung or maybe my mistake.  Tried swapping around wiring of each drive but that didn't work of course. Looked at the settings in the BIOS but did not see a way to create the dual boot.  Please let me know if you need more information. If you know how this can be done or have some suggestions, please let me hear it. As always, thank you very much for your comments.

  Hello oscarmint, I checked the specifications of your system and it does not show the system supports two types of hard drives.

  The system supports only Serial ATA (Sata) synchronous Maximum 150 MB/s transfer rate

  You would need to make the jumper on the Seagate 320 GB Sata Drive pin, set at 150 MB/s.

  You are right that the Seagate would not Cable Select or slave settings and it would be the master and only on cable.

  If the 40 GB hard drive is a type of ATA (IDE), you'd better put as selection of cables (CS).

• I am dual-boot between Windows 7 and Windows 8, but fear the time required to start,

  I am concerned about the time it takes my computer to start
  I have a system dual boot with Windows 7 and Windows 8, and it takes several minutes to decide to show me the screen to decide which OS to use, and then it restart and takes some time to start [the chosen OS
  Isn't time that Microsoft has put some of their skills as computers immediately when starting lit instead of focus on trying to outdo all other systems with stuff
  By the way, I have the same comment on the closure, it takes some time to completely close down--another point for Microsoft to put the attention

  Unfortunately, the processor is just at the level of the minimum required. In addition, RAM is 4 GB, in which folder page size will be approximately 8 GB. Norton 360 scans all files prior to execution, even if it's a system file. This is the reason for the delay.

  Try to upgrade the processor and the rest will be solved.

• Dual boot Win7 32 bit and the 64 bit Win8?

  In anticipation to Windows 8 be accessible to the masses, I would like to know what are the possibilities to install 64-bit Windows 8 when Windows 7 32-bit is already installed.

  Would Windows 7 32 bit and all the 32-bit drivers need to be reinstalled with the 64-bit versions?

  Which means a complete reinstallation of parameters/data and applications existing/installed all be kept or partition the hard disk drive and to start new to new is the only solution?

  Or install another hard drive would be more appropriate?

  Would Windows 7 32 bit and all the 32-bit drivers need to be reinstalled with the 64-bit versions?

  If you dual-boot Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 8, you will need to install the 64-bit native drivers. Windows 8 and 7 64 bit do not support 32-bit drivers.

  Which means a complete reinstallation of parameters/data and applications existing/installed all be kept or partition the hard disk drive and to start new to new is the only solution?

  Yes, you will have to reinstall applications too. You will be able to migrate your personal files and settings by using the Windows Easy Transfer utility.

  Or install another hard drive would be more appropriate?

  You can install it on another partition or hard disk. If you are installing on another partition or hard drive, you will need a full version of Windows 8.

• Can I dual boot 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7, and if I can how?

  Since W7 recognizes that 3 GB of RAM (?) can I install 32-bit and 64-bit on the same computer (different HD) since
  the two discs are included. W7 won't allow me to because it doesn't give me an option of destination?

  Yes you can. Just make sure that you have appropriate for the two operating systems installed partitions. You can install before or after, is not serious. Cannot start the installation of Windows 7 64-bit Windows 7 32 bit, so if you install first, you must start from your 64-bit Windows 7 disk, click Custom during the installation options Setup and select the prepared hard disk or partition, and Windows 7 will take care of the rest. Once installation is complete, you will have the opportunity during your computer to select either the version to start. Please note that you can only have 1 license is activated, if you need to use both, you will need both counterparts separately, may not use the same key. However, you can evaluate both for 30 days to decide that it is appropriate to your needs. Andre Da Costa http://adacosta.spaces.live.com http://www.activewin.com

• Re: Problem of dual boot Win7 and WXP

  I read the complete step by step how to Setup dual boot windows 7 and xp. I have all my partitions has prepared in advance and them labeled accordingly so there is no confusion.

  I installed windows 7 on my new SATA drive. Everything went OK, except that I've never had a start this menu - at 7, it's like Windows XP Home edition was not there.
  I downloaded and installed and ran, easybcd and tried to add the menu WXP manually entry. He asks the drive and the drive with xp on it is now Windows 7, drive D (when E is I boot xp).

  All the necessary files (ntldr, boot.ini, ntdetect.com) are all on this disc. But when I try that menu entry, every computer is restart. It will start again than windows 7, unless I go into the BIOS settings and change the HDD boot order (in this list, if I do that with nr of partition Win7 1, I can boot windows 7 and only this, if I do that with nr of partition XP 1, I get my old regular boot.ini boot menu (what makes me also in my ubuntu wubi installation).)

  I would like to be able to boot in Windows XP Home edition from the Windows 7 start menu, or, Alternatively, to want to boot Windows 7 Startup menu Windows XP Home (what would be even better).

  Are there directions for me?

  Thanks in advance.

  I have more Satellite A300 with two hard drives and I've install WXP and Win7.
  What you need is the Boot Manager. When you start your laptop, you can choose which OS should start, and one of them can be set as default OS so if you n t choose anything after 30 seconds, one of them will start automatically.

  I'm using Win7 OS default.
  > I would like to be able to boot in Windows XP Home edition from the Windows 7 start menu, or, Alternatively, would like > to start Windows 7 from the start menu of Windows XP Home (what would be even better).
  I put t know if something like this is possible. If you want to change your OS, you must restart your laptop and start the second OS.

• Upgraded to WIN 7 can reinstall vista with a new product key the use of dual boot even reinstall disk and computer

  OK, so I've upgraded windows vista to windows 7 and now I want to reinstall vista as a dual boot. I understand that my vista OEM license is now linked to the 7 upgrade, but if I buy a new vista product key can I still use the vista reinstallation disc came with my Dell laptop. I do not know because the drive is a Dell reinstall the drive, but it is on the same computer. The disk is bound to the OEM key or a different key will activate again with her.

  Dell drive is related to the OEM license and, normally, the motherboard.

  If you want to dual-boot, you will need to buy a separate FULL Vista / / license-product disk key.

• Windows Easy Transfer. Dual boot Windows XP 32 and 64-bit Windows 7

  I am upgrading to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit of Windows XP 32-bit profressionelle. I was looking at using the "Windows Easy Transfer" application for transfer settings. I will install Windows 7 on a separate partition and Windows XP is my current operating system. I want to use the WET program, but it implies that I'm to be transferred from ONE computer to another (using the cable or a network). It's the same machine and only no OS will run at the same time. How would I be able to use WET in this situation of dual boot? I have not yet installed Windows 7 or WET. Thanks, BarJabba

  Is the Windows 7 Professional a full license or upgrade? Please note that you will be unable to dual boot using a license to upgrade because it requires that you have previous eligible license installed on the partition.

  If it is a license full and that you plan to dual boot and want to transfer personal files and settings by using Windows Easy Transfer for Windows XP, you will need to do is select the option during the transfer Assistant Windows backup on an external storage device.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.
