• Can I install Windows XP on a new drive with the product key only?

  The hard drive on my HP desktop computer failed and died.  I don't have a recovery disk.  Can I reinstall windows XP on a new drive as Windows XP product key is located on the cover of PC.  If so, how?  Any suggestion please!

  With the procuct only key?  No, you cannot, the product key is just a combination of 25 alphanumeric characters, where the installation files will come from?   You will need to contact HP for a recovery disc.

• Old computer is dead, HARD drive still alive. Can I install windows 7 on your new computer without formatting the old HARD drive?

  My old desktop computer recently died of a motherboard failure.  As I understand it, I should be able to install windows 7 from my old computer to the new, but only if I delete the old installation.

  Does this mean that I have to format the old HARD drive?  Because the old computer HARD drive seems to be alive, I would retrieve the data on a new machine first, before I have to format and I need to install windows on the new computer to get the data from the old HARD drive.

  No, it is taken on trust that the old installation is no longer active, there is no mechanism to remove the old license in order to make a valid new. Remove the Windows directory (or rename) makes the old system inoperative.

  You find that the automatic authentication fails on new construction and need to call the licensing Center to check that you have only one installation. Apart from the OEM rules if a license has been activated too often, and recently, it fails in a 1 time.

• After a fresh install with XP Home EWdition, Service pack 1, 2.0, and 3.0, I can't install Windows Update or IE8.

  After a fresh install with XP Home EWdition, Service pack 1, 2.0, and 3.0, I can't install Windows Update or IE8. Update back me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2497281

  Article ID: 2497281 - last review: January 18, 2011 - revision: 1.0

  You may be unable to access the site Web Windows Update in Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Server 2003 if these versions of Windows are not updated with the latest Service Pack

  But I have service Pack 3.  IE8 fails, install a convenience store, but after following the instructions there is no difference.

  I am at a loss for the next steps...

  There was problems with the server for updates for a few weeks now...

  Many people say that download and run the Update Agent stand-alone file solves this problem:

  For later use, it is not necessary to use all the steps you mentioned. You can upgrade directly from SP1a to SP3.

• I can't install windows on MacBook 15 inch 512 GB 2015

  Hello

  I just brought my new laptop I want to install windows on this 10 by bootcamp. I saw a lot of videos on youtube about installing windows on a mac.

  And I have the iso of windows and proceed to installing windows subsequently after that download the file of taking in charge of windows there was an error popup "WINDOWS FILE cannot NOT BE COPYED". Later when I retried but I need to download a media file, so I download the separate media file instead. But how do I add this file to boot camp instead download it again.

  Please help me with it on this error and the Windows Media file. IM using Bootcamp 6.0.1 so I think it's not see option select task during installation windows 10.

  Can I install Windows on mac without having to install the media file. While I can install it later when windows is installed on BOOTCAMP 6.0 NOT the PREVIOUS VERSION.

• Workstation HP Z240 Tower: can I install Windows 7 from scratch?

  Greetings!

  The operating system on my computer is actually win 10 Pro demoted to Win 7 Pro. I want to know if I can install from scratch Windows 7 in my computer using the Windows 7 disc with the computer.

  I was told, the operating system is Windows 10 but it uses an interface of Windows 7. I don't understand the need for this complication. If you can just install Windows 7, so why use an interface? Maybe this computer only works with Windows 10?

  What are you trying to do, as you say that you are already using Windows 7?

  I do not understand your question about "interface."

  The GUI (graphical user Interface) for Windows 10 incorporates most of the features of the GUI for Windows 7 and also of the GUI Windows 8/8.1.

  See: http://www8.hp.com/ca/en/products/workstations/product-detail.html?oid=8354563#! = form tab

  Your computer was preinstalled with:

  Windows 7 Professional 64 (available through 10 Pro 64 Windows downgrade rights)

  and also comes with a license and support for Windows 10 Pro software.

  My recommendation: given that Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 7 in January 2020 - a short period of absence - install Windows 10 to get security-updates for your computer now and after January 2020.

  Suggestion: if you have a "spare" disk drive, disconnect your current hard drive, connect the 'spare' and try to use this support for Windows 7 to install Windows.  That should answer your question about "can I install...". ».

  I would stick to my Windows XP but I wanted to upgrade the operating system, and Windows 8 seems kind of funny to me.

  Visit the page of the driver Toshiba UE and the section download M50D-A Satellite.

• Satellite Pro A40 can't install windows without using recovery dvd?

  Hello
  I can't install windows xp pro on my A40 Pro sitting unless I have to use the recovery DVDs including family XP Edition pro.
  I own a copy of xp pro, but I just can not format the hard drive either through the xp pro Setup or using third party software.
  all ideas

  Thanks in advance

  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

• Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D - 14 p

  Can I install Windows XP on a Satellite A300D - 14 p?

  .. .thx for any info and/or messages...

  Hello

  Just to clarify something:

  -If you want to install Windows XP Home edition, but do not change the BIOS settings (leave it in AHCI mode) at the beginning of the procedure of facilities you must load a SATA driver by pressing F6. That's only way to install Windows XP Home edition with success
  -You can install WXP without driver SATA, but you must change the compatibility settings. Everything works fine, but if you change the settings on back ACHI you get BSOD every time when you try to start Windows XP Home edition

  If you want to install the SATA driver please install WXP if you use SATA starts the driver before installing Windows XP Home edition.
