  • Recover Vista without disc after installing windows 7

    Recently, I upgraded my G60441US HP for Windows 7 version installed at the original factory of Windows Vista, but I don't know which version of Vista and I got the product key is apparently used on another computer (finally not apparently the other computer is a HP Pavilion G7 and I bought it for my mother last year or more) and I can't get back to Windows Vista without the recovery disk that's what I keep seeing online anyway. I really can't afford to buy a new laptop and do not want to make any inoperative character. I have retained the Windows.old files but for some reason some, they seem to be of no use to me at this point. Is it possible to get a copy of Vista (withou buy one on the Microsoft Web site) so I can create a partition to boot on a USB Flash drive drive.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Dear community,

    I do not have my records, I made a small mistake of upgrading and I will contact hp for the discs, but I have another question,

    What are the versions of .NET Framework supposed to do on my computer because he says that one of them is inactive and the other starts automatically at startup and I was wondering if there was a program listed in the servers file.

    Thanks for any help.

  • Re install Vista without disc

    We do have the Vista disc that came with our computer. We have installed Windows 7 but it does not work correctly

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • How can I re - install vista without the disc, because I only have the key encoded on the computer.

    How can I reinstall vista without the disc and remove windows 7 (an illegal version) also without the disc. I have only the original vista coded key stuck on the computer when the vista system installed on the purchase of the computer. My daughter was not happy with vista and had someone to install windows 7, which turned out to be an illegal version.

    Hello

    If you have a recovery partition likely has been cleared by installing Windows 7.

    You can try the recovery partition, no guarantees.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Hello

    I have 3 questions.

    1. What is the best way to format my HP Pavilion desktop computer (m8325f) without disc? Which option is better a recovery system or a Factory Reset? The PC has been great so far but I need to get rid of junk files, programs & speed it up. He becomes very slow at startup & at the opening of the files.

    2. I have Microsoft Office 2007 and I know that I won't lose it when I format my PC, but it will recognize the PC when I put in the product key to reinstall? It is only good for 1 PC.

    3. can I transfer all my files on the Local disk (E drive rather than an external drive to keep my files temporarily until the format is done.)

    Thank you.

    As far as I know on the second partition of HARD drive folder HDDRecovery is saved recovery image. When you start the installation of (F8 at startup) HARD disk recovery partition recovery image D will be installed on the C partition. In this case the D partition is not deleted. C just partition will be formatted before installation of recovery image begins.
    Just use F8 option and go fix my computer. Just follow the on-screen menu and choose the software factory default recovery option.
    > 2 If the disc is defective, how do I re - install supplied OS (vista) for a new HARD drive?
    After reading this question, I see you didn't read the document s user manuals. You need to create a recovery media (DVD recovery) and this recovery DVD you can use for recovery image installation if there is a problem with the HARD drive or you want to install original recovery image on the new HARD drive.
    3 > unrelated meanings, can I upgrade to Windows 7 (clean install) 32 or 64 bit version?
    Of course you can do it. Please visit the download page of Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and check if all the drivers, tools and utilities are available here. Of course before doing this, create recovery DVDs.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

    Hello

    I have a big problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite L300-19U.

    1 month ago I installed Windows XP on it and it is now my DVD-ROM is broken, he did not read some CD DVD so I can't use my Vista recovery DVD reinstall Vista. Someone at - it had the same problem?

    I heard there is a partition (hiden) where recovery is on it. I'm looking for this partition. And if I find it, I can boot directly from the partition to restore Vista? If not, is there another chance to get it back?

    Please help me to reinstall the Vista recovery partition!

    Hello!

    The hidden partition you want to say is a feature of Windows Vista, but you can restore t Vista with this partition. The point is that the partition is also deleted because you have installed Windows XP on it.

    Restore Vista without recovery disc is possible if Vista is still installed on it. You can go into the advanced boot menu, and then select Repair my computer. Then you can choose the Toshiba HDD recovery option. This is a feature that restores Vista from the second partition.
    But like I said is possible with Vista installed.

    Just a question: why you n t to a service provider allowed? If your laptop is still under warranty, you should get a new CD/DVD drive for free. Normally it should take only a few days and then you're able to reinstall Vista! :)

Maybe you are looking for
