Cannot install windows 7-error: dvd/cd driver missing
Try to install Windows 7 on a different SSD, but get an error indicating that the missing required cd/dvd driver. How Windows load into memory from a cd/dvd that windows 7 says there is no driver missing? This is the same installation disc that I used on a previous SSD without problem. I have 2 other unused installation floppies, and each returns the error message. This problem arose when an attempt to use System Restore Image I had done just on an external SSD and a drive hard usb. The error I had to try to use one of them was that the Image was made in EFI and the computer seeks to restore in BIOS. It's the same machine. Yes, disk management displays the UEFI 100 MB system partition. The motherboard is an Asus F2A85 - V Pro. List Disk running installation diisk sees only the cd/dvd and the drive hard usb but not the SATA drives. When you normally use that List Disk sees everything. The UEFI bios sees all readers, when you use the system installation disk. I used a system repair disc made from the same computer at the same time as the picture of the system and used to start and got a system repair options is not compatible with this version of windows. The windows version is 6.1.7601 sp 1 build 7601. Any ideas?
Hello
Thank you for your response.
There are two modes of starting particularly machine-> BIOS & EFI. BIOS is the general start mechanism found in most machines. Some of the machines also support EFI boot mechanism with BIOS
Either the BIOS or EFI is set as the default in your machine - Please check start the installation system which
one is active by default.
If the EFI operating system is installed, it will create an EFI system partition in your machine. Installation of BIOS has no EFI partition.
Warning in the BIOS: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to post in the case where you are facing other problems with Windows, we will be happy to help you.

Original title: Install windows 7 on GTP style partition
Nice day
I try to install windows 7 on my laptop but there is a massegeSay cannot install windows on the selected drive cos it's GTPPartion of style, I was using before windows 8 but then formatMy hard drive please guide me on how to archive this because only throughI'm really frastratedHi Nnrmalata,
1. you are trying to install 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7?
2. What is the brand and model of your computer?
Boot from GPT is only supported for 64-bit of Windows 7 on UEFI-based systems.
For more details, refer to this link:
http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/hardware/gg463525.aspx
If your computer does not support UEFI, back up your important data to an external drive and delete all partitions on hard drives and create a new partition.
(a) start from the Windows 7 DVD
(b) click on install now
(c) in the configuration screen, click Custom (Advanced)
(d) click on drive Options
(e) select the partitions to format
(f) click on Format - this will erase EVERYTHING on this partition
(g) create a new partition, and then select a partition to install Windows on.
(h) follow the on-screen instructions and install Windows.
Note: Converting a hard disk partition or volume from NTFS to FAT32 requires that you reformat the partition, which deletes all the data on this subject. Be sure to back up data that you want to keep before you begin.
You can check the link for reference:
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd799232 (WS.10) .aspx
Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
If above did not help, please refer to the steps in this link.
Note: Backup your important data to an external drive

Envy 13 d001ne: cannot install Windows 10 from usb flash drive
Summary of the problem:
The laptop SSD has a GPT format. I am trying to insall a Windows 10 ISO I have on it from a flash drive. Formatting a usb startup as TPG manually or using Rufus drive will not make the unit visible non-traditional mode. Formatting the drive in the MBR on the other hand I cannot install on a GPT disk.
I've tried everything. I disabled and enabled secure boot. I updated the BIOS to the latest revision F.35.
What's wrong?
The ISO had problems with it. I used another and then I could install Linux Mint and Windows without any problem.
I solved my problem here.

I got an asus computer notebook windows vista, upgrade from vista to windows 7, now I'm not able to do a clean install of windows xp, when I try to install XP, it says that hard drives are not connected & windows cannot find not the hard drives, so once again installed windows 7, is there a way to overcome this problem Why do I get the message windows xp does not detect hard drives? I even formatted the hard drive & tried to install Xp, but still, I get the same message.
The answers will be appreciated...
Thank you
Because the Windows XP installation CD does not have the necessary disk controller drivers. You will need a floppy drive to provide the drivers of controller for the installation program, or you will need to burn a CD of Windows XP with the controller drivers slipstreamed into the installation. A CD of Windows XP with SP2 included may have the necessary drivers.

Cannot install windows update, error: 80070641
Original title: Windows updates (& other 3rd party updates) download, but will not be installed.
Operating System: MS Windows Vista Edition Home Premium (32-bit) with Service Pack 2.
Since early June, I was unable to install four Windows updates (Office KB 982726, Vista Security KB 2656368 & KB 2686827 and Office 2007 Outlook KB 2687267). For all four error codes are 641 and 80070641 which mean nothing to me. In addition, I am now unable to install Apple software upgrades (for Itunes and Quicktime player) who report "unexpected error".
I suspect that Windows Installer is missing (possibly, but not certainly, caused by System Mechanic corrupting the registry).
I ran msconfig and look under the Services tab, but the name of program similar to Windows Installer is installer of Modules Windows, which is probably something totally different.
Please, how can I resolve this irritation? Keep in mind, I'm a novice user not a geek! I thank all the speakers. Peter
Thanks for the suggestion. However I cured the problem by applying the fix to re - install Windows Installer. Peter was soon
