Can I install my W7 Pro on a W7 prem-oem version that is installed on my HP Pc?

HelloW!
Sorry for my bad English {it is not my native language} and I will try to be as clear as possible with my question.

I bought HP Desktop in 2012 {with 2 hard drives, (c) & (E :) who already had an oem version of Windows 7 premium (x 64) installed.}

The thing is now that my pc is slow & I want to do a clean install, but I don't want to install the version of Windows HP oem but my Windows 7 Professional (x 64).

My question: can I install my W7 pro during the latest oem with a formatting HD {or what it's called in English}? I've never done before, so I'm kinda a noob. A site Dutch, there was also a suggestion to format the HD first, then I need to go to my BIOS and change the settings of my BR_rom in master etc. otherwise the installation cd does not work... etc.
* UM *.

without the BIOS thing, I was wondering if it is possible to simply * my W7 version on the version W7oem without having any problems.

Thank you.

Have you done your recovery disks according to the instructions from HP? If this is not the case, what to do now.

You won't gain much by installing your version of win7 pro rather than the version provided by HP. If you install your version it will be via install a clean place, you start on the cd of win and early in the process when you have the possibility to the place where you install delete all partitions found on C: then continue installation to utalise all the space of the C: drive. After that you will need to install the drivers of HP support system

Using this method any partition hidden HP recovery & tools will be destroyed and all on the PC

(If you have used the HP recovery disk to return to factory settings, the drivers would be installed as part of the process)

  • Can I delete Windows 7 (OEM Version) of my faulty Imac and re - install on another machine?

    Set up my new Imac with a partition for Windows 7 a couple of days.  The Imac has had a number of questions and today Apple Support have advised me to return it and get a replacement.  I am able to delete the copy of Windows via bootstrap, but I have a horrible feeling, because it is an OEM version, that I won't be able to re - install on the iMac replacement.  Is someone can confirm if this is the case or offer me a solution to the please my problem?

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    Some people have managed to get OEM versions reactivated on different hardware telephone, its worth a try. If this does not work, you should consider investing in a new license:

  • How can I change the size of the tab in the new version of Firefox?

    Hello

    Thanks for any help in advance.

    Of course the new Firefox is to play with me... But I have a question...

    Facts...

    (1) I have an iMac... 17-inch... So I can open many, many tabs at once.

    (2) I just restarted my computer again.

    (3) I am working on the research of all the old stuff, but I can't seem to find two specific items...

    In the previous version, and before I restarted, I had about 40 tablets (including the Cluster Tabs) open up whenever I started a browsing session. But now, I can't seem to control the size of the tabs, so they get less close I had?

    I have already downloaded "Vulcanize tabs" but is no help... I think it was a specific theme which allowed me to do this, but many of the topics do not work with this new version of Firefox.

    I think I'll have to wait until the themes are updated? Or, you have a better idea?

    Also...

    I want to get rid of 'X' on each tab and have only one button close the tab on the far right of my navigation tabs bar.

    Any help?

    If so, thanks again!

    PS... Is it possible to reverse my download of the newest version of Firefox and to return to the previous one, until this new one gets lots of bugs a worked-out?

    To do what you want, you need to change some advanced settings.

    1. Open Firefox.
    2. Type of topic: config in the address bar.
    3. You see a warning message. Press on the I'll be careful, I promise! button to continue.
    4. In the filter text box, enter browser.tabs.tabMinWidth
    5. In the entry which appears, browser.tabs.tabMinWidth, right-click and choose Edit and enter a value more high. You'll need to experiment with this one. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.tabs.tabMinWidth
    6. To the close button, replace the filter browser.tabs.closeButtonsvalue, right click and click on modify, then enter the value 3 . See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.tabs.closeButtons

    You may need to restart Firefox so that these are taken into account.

    Decommissioning:
    Note at the top of the following link (where you can download Firefox 3.5.9, the latest 3.5.x version), that support all 3.5.x versions that should be completed in August 2010.

  • I want to install Adobe CC to my macbook, I thought needed a clean install of El Capitan on a drive in orer to work properly. However, I can not install El Capitan on the app store. My equipment is a beginning 11 Macbook Pro. It would be better?

    That of El Capitan can be installed without it is available on the Mac App Store?

    Y at - it a link to a clean, fresh and full installation current of El Capitan available anywhere?

    (Rather than install and perform updates?)

    What is suggested for a 11 first owner Macbook Pro who wants to run Adobe CC on the current material and wants to install a new os before installation of Adobe?

    Y at - it a link to a clean, fresh and full installation current of El Capitan available anywhere?

    (Rather than install and perform updates?)

    If the installation program is still available, it will be to the latest version. No updates (no updates) would be necessary. He would install 10.11.6.

    Look under your "Purchase" tab for the El Capitan software.

    Drivers designed for laptops are changed and adapted to provide performance fairly, but not to force a graphics card to run on the limit. As you probably know there are big difference between office and mobile graphics cards.

    Desktop graphics cards have no limits with cooling and drivers can be updated very often. Design of portable computers is completely different and all hardware components are placed on the square. The common problem with laptops is to design the system of cooling, small but effective.
    Because of all these reasons, display drivers must be tested and adapted by the laptop manufacturers. The main point is to protect the material. The same situation is with other manufacturers of graphics card. They don't offer drivers for laptops.

    If your graphics card will blow that will be responsible for this Toshiba or Intel?

    By the way: Satellite Pro U300 is for me a laptop of small business and certainly not designed for games. Do you agree with me?

    MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inches, beginning 2013) El Capitan 10.11.3, Simple question here: I can't open FinalCut Express (4, I believe). The wheel turns for hours. How can I install/uninstall and will I lose all my old films (for the most part stored on external hard drives). Thanks for your suggestions.

    You will not lose anything, but the app if you uninstall. If you decide to uninstall use this app to make sure that all the other files which depends on FCE are also deleted however I can't give you any assurance as to whether you will be able to reinstall so that it works correctly. It is a software that has not been supported for almost 5 years and there are conflicting reports as to its compatibility with OS X 10.11. Can't I test it myself.

    Maybe someone else will chime in with their own experiences.

    Hello

    As far as I know that the free Config was not preinstalled on this unit.
    You can find this tool on the CD of tools & utility?
    If this is not the case, there is therefore no configfree for this model of laptop.

    Hello

    Maybe you have an old version of your Windows XP operating system in the Microsoft Windows CD.
    I guess you are not able to install the OS, because some updates and SP are missing on the CD.
    You should try to include service packs of MS, and then install the operating system.

    PS: I put t understand why you n t use the recovery CD. The installation is very simple and al Tosh drivers are pre-installed. OK, it s a Home version but there aren't huge differences of Pro
