  • Can I use my Windows 7 Edition recovery disks Home Premium for a clean install on my old Windows XP computer?

    Hello world!  I hope someone can help.

    Can I use my Windows 7 Edition recovery disks Home Premium for a clean install on my old Windows XP computer?

    If this is a recovery from a different computer disk, you are unable to do so.

    In addition, if you were to format the computer, you will need to have a way to reinstall a copy of Windows with a genuine license.

    The best option if you need Windows 7 Home Premium is to buy a genuine license then you can make a custom (new installation).

  • Re: How to install Windows from a recovery on a new hard disk media?

    Immediately after a Windows Update, my computer will not re-start. It says disk error.

    I could not start it from the recovery media and F8 would not work. I bought and installed a new hard drive. Now, when I put in the recovery media to install Windows on the new drive, it gives an error message.

    What this may be? Would I be able to install Windows from the recovery media?
    It is Windows 7 and laptop Satellite A500, 64 bit.

    Hello

    In General, you can install Recovery on each compatible HARD drive image so you should not be a problem in this regard.

    Please tell us what happens when you start installation of recovery. What error message?

    New HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS. Before you begin installation of recovery BIOS default value.

  • Re-install Windows 7 using recovery media (DVD)

    Laptop: HP-430 Notebook

    OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)

    HARD DRIVE: THE 298 GB

    When I bought recently my laptop HP-430, I partitioned new HARD drive using some other third party software. I created an additional partition (M:\). Here's the info, how I've repartitioned...

    C:\ - 100 GB (changed from 284 GB to 100 GB).

    D:\ - have not made any changes.

    M:\ - 184 GB (created a drive by myself).

    Then after a few days of testing purpose I thought using the Recovery Manager. So I run the Setup and chose the first option (System Restore) who says he will only reformat the drive (C:\) system and will not issue any other HARD disk changes. But to my surprise it deleted/reformatted the HARD full disc, and I lost all my documents, music, photos and all my important files, I recorded/saved on M:\ (that I had created...)

    Can someone tell me why the hack happened...?

    So now, next point. After that the Recovery Manager has restored the operating system, I repartitioned again, but this time with the Windows disk management tool. But the Windows disk management does not shrink (resize) the C:\(Systemdrive) of less than 150 GB. So I resized C:\ to 150 GB of GB 284 and created a player more (M:\) 147 GB size. And I deleted the recovery disc (D:\), but I created the recovery DVD before you remove the Recoevery of my HARD disk drive.

    Now its time for me to reinstall Windows 7 using recovery media, I messed with some system files when installing a theme for Windows 7 and now my OS is completely unstable. So now I want to reinstall windows 7, but I do not understand what option selected in the Recovery Manager (when run from Recovery DVD)

    Options displayed in the Recovery Manager

    1 collect using Microsoft Recovery

    2 recovery system (the option that I had chosen for the first time and got all the stuff removed)... He said that he only reinstalls the OS and custom make any other change of HARD drive.

    3 minimized Image Recovery

    4. factory Reset.

    So now my question to you guys, it's what option do I have selected in the Recovery Manager so that all my saved content and my stuff on M:\ (I created) will not be removed... and the operating system is reinstalled.

    PLIZZZZZ HELPPPPPPPPPPPP...

    Hello

    I don't think that all the disk recovery options will keep your partition custom - as far as I know, the only time where you will receive a prompt to keep a custom partition when you use the option "Recovery of Image is reduced to a minimum" to the recovery Partition D that you deleted.

    You can try the following workaround.

    Download the good Image of disk Windows 7 from the link below: it must be exactly the same version your OEM Setup - that is to say if your laptop comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, it comes to the version, you must download.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.

    Use the disk that you create to perform the installation - when you get to the option to choose the installation type, choose custom and select the C partition.

    When asked, enter the activation key Windows located on the underside of your laptop, then when the installation is complete use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just that a new installation of Windows 7 without software load additional normally bundled with OEM installations.

    I have a PC with windows 7 Home Premium installed. The PC is faulty and cannot be resolved. Can I reinstall the same Windows 7 to a new computer without additional cost? If yes how can I do this? Some people reported issues license keys and it cannot be registered once in a PC.

    Thank you

    It is the major limitation of the OEM software that it can be installed on a PC. The COA label will confirm whether the license is OEM. A number of elements can be replaced in a PC in the way of repair, but only if exactly the same model of Council can this be exchanged.

    Even if you transfer the drive to the new PC would not authenticate because of the change of equipment, and it would be unlikely to to re-authenticate online.

    If the label is not OEM and you have a retail package, so it can be transferred.

  • Pavilion G6 Windows 8 application recovery

    OK, I had a friend bring me a Pavilion G6 (2287sa) Windows 8 laptop whose hard drive was clicking on & unreadable, with no prior recovery media.  I ordered a suitable replacement drive and managed to locate another G6 Windows 8 (2299sa) model, by learning about a local forum... the forum member is happy for me to make a backup of their system recovery that I helped them before.

    However, before I do, I need to secure a number of things: -.

    (a) will be the recovery media of a book of 2299sa on the 2287sa?

    (b) is likely to cause problems for the Member of the forum if their own system has problems in the future?

    (c) create recovery media remove the installation of onboard factory restore or keep it intact?

    If there are other problems that I could meet then, as they say, I'm all ears!

    Thanks in advance

    BIS

    Hi, Bob:

    (a) will be the recovery media of a book of 2299sa on the 2287sa?   Probably not. The recovery media will check the model number and probably error, but you have nothing to lose by trying.

    (b) is likely to cause problems for the Member of the forum if their own system has problems in the future? Not at all, but they can only do 1 set of the 2299sa recovery media.

    (c) create recovery media remove the installation of onboard factory restore or keep it intact? Do the defined recovery media has no impact on the recovery partition.

    Should the recovery media do not work on the 2287sa, you can order a set of this HP ePartner on the link below.

    Based on the cost of a set of recovery media, you probably want to try the game to make the discs first.

  • Dv7 - 7333cl envy: Boot Device not found (3FO) after 8 of Windows Restalling of recovery disks

    Hello

    The hard drive on my dv7 desire - 7333cl just died after upgrading my windows 8.1 to 10. I bought a new SSD and I replaced the drive. I could not find the recovery discs, that I did when I got the PC, so I ordered new HP according to the recommendations of other threads with the understanding that they would be able to reinstall windows on the new drive.

    Given the shipping time would take a long time, until I tried to reinstall Windows 8.1 using the file .iso Windows 8.1 image official of Microsoft. It seemed to install properly, read the product automatically key and everything, but I could not get the machine to start, so I decided to wait for the HP recovery discs.

    Well I had the disc a few days ago and reinstalled the original image on the new drive. Problem is that when the computer reboots, I get error no matter what I try. The errors vary according to which of the steps I tried below, but I was never able to start Windows, except once when the Windows 8 BSOD loops and restarts automatically before I can even read.

    Here are the steps I've already tried:

    -Performed a hard reset (power adapter and battery removed, taking the power for 30 seconds button)

    -Run the diagnostic system HP based on the SSD (spent) and memory (spent)

    -Secure boot disabled (and re-enabled, cleared the keys, keys reloaded, etc.)

    -Enabled legacy support (and disabled)

    -Bios reset to original settings (F9) is then repeat above steps in various orders

    -Reinstalled two times more than original image

    At this point, I was wondering if the drive has not been formatted from the recovery disk and multiple files to start causing problems, so I started in Parted Magic with UBCD and reformatted the entire hard drive (0 s to write to disc) and again reinstalled original image. Still nothing so I told all the steps above in random orders to try to turn it on.

    If I start in the boot options, I can see the SSD, but it still won't start. Does anyone have more ideas for me to try? The fact that it passes all the tests and that it is running the Linux of Parted Magic environment suggests that everything works fine, but for some reason any Boot file does not load.

    Did I lose money on the HP recovery discs and he just bought my own Windows OEM license?

    I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. I am relatively experienced with the PC, but it's my first time work with the architecture of the UEFI Windows 8 so maybe there is something obvious that I'm missing?

    Thanks for any help.

    FINALLY SUCCESS!

    After a lot of frustration and several reboots, partitions, reinstall, and trips to Best Buy, that I care to remember I'm typing this from my stable work feel LIKE to the point Windows 8.1. Currently 10 Windows to download and install all updates, but everything seems to be stable.

    To make a long story short:

    -Be sure to carefully read the product manual

    I never would have guessed that this system would support only a 160 or 180 GB SSD. If I had of known that I would have probably never had any serious problems.

    -Instead of order recovery HP discs just to download the ISO of Windows 8

    I'm not the first person to have problems with these discs (search this forum for the many complaints), so unless desperately want the included HP tools and bloat, just to get a file from Microsoft (FREE!). There is no reason why it shouldn't work and I wish I would have went with my gut here and saved a bit of money.

    -Be persistent if you can't find the question

    I was told, many people, that the machine was bricked up. At that time, I was obsessed with the implementation because no one could tell me why it would not.

    Thanks for reading! And if you encounter a similar error, good luck.

  • Retail of Windows 7 can be installed and activated on your laptop with OEM 8.1?

    I have a laptop with Windows Pro 64 bit OEM 8.1. I used the HARD drive as a data disc and you plan to install a new HARD drive in it.

    Fortunately the laptop model is compatible with Windows 7 64 bit and all the drivers are available on the manufacturer's Web site.

    So even if I have OEM Windows 8.1 recovery USB, I would like to know if it is possible to do a clean install & activate a retail Windows 7 64 on it without any problems or complexities license?

    8.1 OEM key is embedded in the firmware, so it interferes with the installation of Windows 7 or help to install another OS like Windows 7 detail?
