Change the disc to boot from a HARD for one SSD drive

Hello world.
I am writing this post because I just bought a Crucial 64 GB SSD v4 and I have Windows 7 64 bit home edition (original) installed on the HARD drive. I need to know how to perform a clean installation on the SSD and how stand the PC of the it. Thanks to all in advance.

Hello

The first question for you is if you have a Windows DVD system disk or a partition of your drive hard that you installed Windows from? The second question is if you have a laptop or desktop computer, and if the SSD is already installed on your computer and formatted? And the third question is to know if you have a product key for Windows Home Premium OS to install on SSD?

Assuming that the SSD is already installed and you have a product key for the version of Windows you want, the simplest method is to use a Windows DVD or create a DVD of Windows System. If you do not have a Windows DVD, you can download the ISO file for the version of Windows Home Premium 64-bit (Service Pack 1) from here: http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-58997.iso .

In addition, if you need an application to burn the ISO on DVD, you can use the Windows application which is built into Windows. Simply right click on the ISO file image and click on burn to... Once you have the system disk, you can use to do a clean install of Windows on your new SSD.

The other option is the use of an application of part 3 to transfer your current Windows your HHD's existing operating system to your new SSD. Such a request is EaseUS Partition Master, downloadable here: http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Partition-Master-Free-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html?tag=mncol;1 .

In both methods, you will need the SSD drive installed in your system in order to load it with the operating system. And as I say, the simplest method is to do or have a DVD of Windows System.

If you would answer the questions I ask myself, I can scroll the process in more detail, although enforcement EaseUS is quite explicit and includes several wizards to guide you through the process.

Let me know what other assistance I can provide.

Kind regards

  • I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD.

    Hello Comunity Microsoft :D My name is Mike and I built a gaming pc. Everything was going well for the first 3 days, but now I have a few crashes very violent. Speakers in loop and buzz and screen lock. I have to completely shut down to go back to a working state. I did everything I could possibly think of to solve this problem, but I can't.

    Then. on the problem. Today, I decided that I was able to solve all the problems by reinstalling windows. I had my keys together and put the disc in. I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD. I do and I get normal loading windows files, and at the end of this road, I get the Welcome screen in windows7 with no option and a fat slider.

    Just to isolate the problem, try to download a new copy of Windows 7, and then try again:

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Regarding problems with the computer itself, try to disconnect all nonessential equipment attached to it to see if the problem persists.

    I would also try switching around components such as modules of memory to see if the problem persists.

    I would also check to make sure that all components are mounted and installed correctly.

    A new start menu should appear, then you can choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD) and a boot device.

  • For one SSD HARD drive swapping

    Permutation of my HARD for one SSD drive

    Dear people;

    I recently bought a Dell SSD to swap with my HDD on my Studio 1558, Windows 7, 64-bit failure.

    What I needed to know, is the image of the system will be enough to transfer all files and program, so the OS on the SSD. As much free disk space is concerned, I have more than enough to copy on.

    I am concerned about Microsoft not to validate the transfer of Windows 7? I also have an OS drive that Dell sent me. Wouldn't be better to use it instead of the image of the system?

    I thought that I would make sure I do that when the hour comes-any day now.

    Thanks for your time.

    You must install windows from the installation media, and then reinstall all your programs and files. System images are only to reinstall on the same disk or a disk of size even. There is no problem with the license. This isn't for the computer hard drive. Reactivation should not be a problem, but you might have to talk to a person to explain the replacement of disc.

    To the point where I have indicated the asterisk above, it has a slash which rotates in a circular motion.

    My thought is that it's either the Windows code is corrupted or is a hardware failure.  While I am not positive, I feel that it occurs when Internet Explorer is used.   System Restore is not enabled on this computer, so this isn't an option.  Can someone help me understand this means and how I could fix this?  I know that will later Windows version can solve it, but this isn't the answer I'm looking for.  Thank you

    Attempt to initialize the network is not a 'possible', it is certain that your PC is doing exactly this depending on your BIOS settings. In addition, she tries the network initialization after already trying to start on an optical disc. The two attempts at device boot doesn't have, in all likelihood after having already failed the boot from the hard drive. There is no message to indicate than an attempt to boot to the hard drive, or he leaves the screen too fast to see you or you did not save it in your original post.

    My advice on the diagnosis is based on the studied the real model of your PC, not generic advice for all Dell PC with Vista installed.

    1. Your computer has already finished POST (Power O n Self TEST) otherwise you wouldn't see any attempt to start at all.
    2. You've already provided specific error messages.
    3. I have already advised the best and most approriate diagnostics for your PC.
    4. Your PC will not start in any mode if it becomes a default 'hard', rather than the intermittent fault means your original message. Start in any mode, you can and make a backup as soon as possible.
    5. Unless these recent changes include adjustments to the BIOS settings, they are irrelevant, that he is a boot failure which can be caused by anything done under Vista.
    6. Removing the external devices is never a bad step of troubleshooting if you encounter problems. I doubt it will help in this instance, but it will not hurt to try, especially if they are peripheral bootable.
    7. Startup Repair will not solve a hardware problem (by far the most likley scenario).
    8. System Restore is not usable unless you can actually start to Vista and it's never going to treat problems of material.
    9. IMO, this is not a software issue. See also point 4.
    10. If you have a hard drive failure, it is not recommended to try to reinstall the operating system. First of all prove that the hard drive is OK as advised before trying to re-setup. In addition, if you can, back up your data before reinstalling the operating system. In all likelihood, that's what you have to do but for a hard drive replacement.

    I repeat that a failing or failed hard drive is the most likely scenario. Other more distant possibilities include

    • A failed or failing disk controller (almost certainly on the motherboard)
    • Boot from the hard drive is disabled in the BIOS (highly unlikely if this anomaly is intermittent)
    • Some sort of weird for the failure of the BIOS
    • Option 3 mentioned in the previous post (unlikely unless your PC has been internally inspected/modified or subject to vibration displacement/hitting more/remove etc..)
  • HP Pavilion 500-210 QE cannot boot from any hard drive.

    Good evening. As you can see on the subject, my computer just cannot boot from any hard disk that I put on it. I tried swapping the power supply, SATA cable, reset the BIOS, allowing the start legacy, changing to AHCI to IDE and RAID...

    When I get to the BIOS Setup, I see the hard drive and its features, but it will not start or show when I am trying to install a new OS. I'm not an expert, but I think that the problem could be in the motherboard SATA ports, but I'm not sure. Just to be sure, I tried another harddrive and it did not work as well.

    I was also thinking to buy a HDD external and installation of my OS on it, but I don't even know if it is possible and I would really like to have my computer working again.

    Thank you for your attention!

    Ok. That doesn't say that it is very likely that the motherboard has problems.

  • Portege A100 PPA10A - update the BIOS to boot from a USB device

    Hello

    I have an old Portege A100, model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find this model on any Web site of Toshiba, closest I've seen is the "PPA10A - 0002 L'.

    I am wanting to know if there is a BIOS update that will allow me to boot from a USB device.

    The question I have is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cannot read disks.
    This network PXE boot, but I'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutely no idea what to do here.

    Any help would be great,

    Thank you

    Hello

    Portege A100 seems to be developed solely for the Australian market.
    As you say it is a model number Portege A100 PPA10A - 0002L listed on the Australian page of Toshiba Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A
    So in my opinion, the BIOS should work too.

    Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add boot options.

    Usually the BIOS supports booting from CD/DVD drive, drive HARD, LAN and USB FDD.
    It should be possible to boot from a boot disk using a USB FDD drive.
    I doubt you'd be able to boot from USB WEIRD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.
