• Can I install windows 7 on the superdive replacement hard drive

  Hello people,

  Recently I replaced the drive of my macbook pro 13 inch mid-2012 with an adapter (caddy tray) to put in a second hard drive (500 GB todhiba).

  Now I am trying to install windows 7 with bootcamp (on an os x 10.9.5, bootcamp 5.1.2), but when I boot from the usb device, when windows ask me which drive I want to install it, it says: windows cannot be installed to this disk, drive must be formatted ntfs + your computer hardware seem unable to run windows 7 check your system components and try again.

  I've tried several things: the direct USB win7 reformat, delete the partition, create partition... still no luck.

  Of in osx: reformat the disk with unallocated space (MBR) and try again to install direct USB... had the same error messages.

  I even tried to install Ubuntu gnome rather with a live usb works but all I get when holding the option button while booting is my Macintosh HD, the drive appears.

  Can someone give me about workaround or even show me the way? I am out of ideas now.

  Thank you very much

  Simon.

• Can I install Windows Vista on my A110-178

  People,

  I am in possession of a laptop Toshiba Satellite A110-178. I would like to know if I can install Windows Vista on this laptop? And what version, Home Basic, home premium, ultimate or business.

  Kind regards

  Tim Snijckers

  Hello Tim

  I checked the Toshiba download page, and it seems that the drivers for Vista are available. Your laptop should have mode number PSAB0. Please visit http://support.toshiba-tro.de > support & download and choose your model of laptop.

  Before you start the installation of Vista, it is recommended to update BIOS first. I did the same thing for friends Satellite A100. After the BIOS update, I was able to install Vista and all the stuff from Toshiba with no problems.

• Does anyone has installed Windows 7 on a laptop Pavilion DV2175

  If anyone has installed Windows 7 on a laptop Pavilion DV2175 and if so it is 32 or 64 bit

  Hello:

  There is an unofficial update guide to windows 7 for the series dv2000.

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-systems-and-software/Windows-7-upgrade-guide-for-DV2000-models/m-p/186936#M28141

  Given that the maximum amount of memory, that you can install on your laptop is only 2 GB, I'd go with W7 32 bit, as a 64 bit OS requires more memory and disk space to run a 32 bit OS only.

  Not double, but more.

  Can I install Windows 7 on this computer?
  If so, how to do this, please?

  I have very little technical knowledge, so easy answers please.
  I would be eternally grateful for any help.

  Thank you very much
  Polly

  Of course you can do it.
  You can install Win 7 If you want to.
  First, go to the BIOS (press F2 during boot)
  In the BIOS disable secure boot with UEFI MSC mode.
  Save the changes and now you could boot from Win 7 disc and could launch the installation.

  But just a note: you read the operating instructions and to create the recovery disk before installing what anyone on the laptop. The recovery disc helps you return to Win 8 in case you want to use again!

It works fine when installing files, but it is and stucks where he says 'finish installation' and he won't do anything after that... I tried to restart my computer and I could see Microsoft coportation logo and then my computer stucks to this screen and wont connect in... not sure what exactly to do... by the ways for your reply thanks

  You cannot use recovery discs to install with, if not for the exact model computer that you install.  You need a full installation detail of the model of Vista operating system you want to install since you don't downgrade your operating system to a system that offers no right of demotion.
