• How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive?

  Original title: Old files Windows, Program Files, etc.

  I tried to use before Disk Cleanup and it worked, and I haven't run a complete installation.

  I'm having a problem now, this time, and I did a full install.  Disk Cleanup doesn't show any options to remove an old Windows as it did before.

  How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive?  I also try to remove the Program Files folder, as well as with an implementation since.

  It is showing an error message "I need to be in the Administrators group ~", and that TrustedInstaller is owner of the present.

  I have a question that "TrustedInstaller" has full authority on the file system, and 'Administrators' has limited access.

  I noticed that there are other three to make a total of four names of users who have all or nearly full access to the file system.

  Can it be fixed... it's pretty annoying to see this continue..., strictly through Windows Update.

  I look forward to your reply.

• I want to remove pre-installed windows 8 and want to install windows xp in hp 6 but idont know how to install

  I want to remove pre-installed windows 8 and want to install windows xp in hp 6 but idont know how to install

  Hello

  First thing to do is to go to the HP website and see if the XP drivers are available for your model of HP.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  If there is no XP drivers, XP does not work for you.

  If the XP drivers are available, looking for a place to buy XP, which is a terrible thing to do as Microsoft did not sell XP for many years.

  You run the very serious risk of buying pirated XP software from anywhere on the Net.

  Stay with your preinstalled Windows 8.

  See you soon.

• I bought a HP with Windows 10 Tower preloaded. Is there place where I can get help with installing Windows 7?

  * Original title: Windows 10 disappointment

  Recently, I bought a HP with Windows 10 Tower preloaded.  I gave up 10.  I would like to return to the Windows 7 desktop.  If I buy or buy this software, I guess I have to 'wipe' 10 of my machine?  Or I would just download 7 top?   What I have found online are instructions for people who have updated to 10 and want to revert to an earlier version of windows.  In my case, I never had an earlier version on the machine I have now.  Is there place where I can get help with installing Windows 7?  Online, local dealer?  Thank you.

  If I were you, I call HP and tell them that you do not want this computer with Win10.  They are very likely still sells machines with Win7 for businesses, because most companies do not affect the Win10 with a 10 foot barge pole.

  Dell is selling them for sure.  I've been helping my clients by computers Dell Win7 for a very long time now and just had one on my desk a week ago.  Look at the range of Dell Vostro of computers.

  The trick is to approach Dell as a businessman, and not as a normal consumer.

• I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did. These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  My computer came with Windows 7.  Recently, my hard drive failed.  I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did.  These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  YES!

  I just did mine 01/01/2016, installed a new WD 500 GB HDD black on my laptop ASUS K52F, took my DVD 4 restore disks and restored to Win 7 Home Premium, more 10 Windows, which is sitting on my old HDD in the trash. I'll stick with my Original OEM OS and never improve to WIN 10 times.

  NOTE: The only time the restore disks do not work is when you replace your motherboard.

• How can I add a previously installed windows on my mac pro installation

  Hi guys, everything becomes to collect my newly bought mac pro 3.1 (used). I'm moving PC, but how do I add my existing installation of windows on my mac? The mac pro is 3.1 and has 2 x 500 GB disks in a raid 1 TB configuration. It's just a matter of plugging my windows disk (I'm guessing No.) or is it a bit more complex than that? Any help or advice will be appreciated and hope to give back as much help as I get that I'm learning. Thank you

  You can install Windows on a Mac computer using Boot Camp Assistant or by using a Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox virtual machine natively. Refer to the instructions of Boot Camp located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/. OT If using a virtual machine see the instructions located on the Parallels, Fusion or VirtualBox sites.

  In both cases you can not use a PC already existing installation of Windows. You need to reinstall Windows on your Mac.

• I am buying a new computer without an operating system installed and you want to know if my Windows 7 Upgrade disk can be used to install Windows 7?

  I'll buy a kit of barebones without preinstalled operating system and was wondering if I could use my Windows 7 upgrade disk to install Windows on the new PC.

  Short answer 'NO '.

  Upgrade means upgrade. An upgrade can only be used to upgrade a previous version of XP or Vista. You will need to purchase a full retail or OEM version to install on a computer without an operating system.

• Can Tecra A6 - I install Windows 7?

  Does anyone know if the Tecra A6 (A60E) is OK with the new Windows 7 RC?

  Shaun

  Why you should not be able to install Windows 7 on Tecra A6?

  So I think that you can install Windows 7 but I n t understand why so many people want to install a beta version of the operating system on its laptops. I mean a beta version of the operating system can cause problems and not run stable under Vista or XP. In addition the new Windows doesn t have features they are important and everybody needs this.

  For example, I have two laptops from Toshiba. With Vista and XP, but I prefer the laptop with XP. I think it s the operating system more stable I have ever had.

• Can satellite L300D - I install Windows XP?

  Can someone help me or tell me the best thing to do?

  I bought my Toshiba Satellite L300D two years ago and it broke last year because I hit it a little because of the internet. So I sent offshore to a friend of my uncle, who has replaced the drive with a 35 GB hard inside you. But now, whenever I turn on my laptop I get the blue screen and it cannot cross, he says that windows can be corrupted and is not loading and it says to use the original installation CD, but I don't have one, but I have a Windows XP one and I would make Windows XP instead of Vista.

  Is there anything I can do to get it working again? Please help me quickly

  Thank you
  Fabian

  Hey,.

  > use the original installation CD, but I have not a
  Yes, because you have to create this disk yourself using preinstalled creator of media recovery Toshiba as mentioned in the user manual.
  Have you read the user manual?

  You can order a recovery disc that will restore the original settings of the case:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  Of course, you can install Windows XP s no problem. Just make sure you can get all the drivers on the official page of download driver Toshiba. If so, boot from the XP disc and follow the on-screen instructions to install it.

• How can I download and install Windows XP SP3?

  I currently have Windows XP, Service Pack 2 on my IBM ThinkPad.

  I tried to follow the instructions on the Microsoft Web site, which is to install through Windows Update. When I go to the Windows Update page and click on the "Custom" button, it says "the website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. The options provided below may help you solve the problem. "[Error number: 0 x 80244019]

  I suspect it is because I am currently running Windows XP SP2; I'm not allowed to update because I have not yet updated.

  The second 'Advanced' option is to install 'manually '. This takes me to a page titled "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers. The title is a bit disheartening, but I was going to get anyway, but when I sailed to the bottom of the page, I read in the description: "DO NOT click DOWNLOAD if YOU ARE UPDATING a SINGLE computer. I can't just ignore a message written in all caps and bold!

  In any case, could someone tell me why

  1. The updated release of Windows XP SP3 is, in terms of Microsoft, "more appropriate", and
  2. If it is not appropriate for my single installation on my ThinkPad user, so what do I do?

  Thank you

  Thomas
