Disk Crash - Reload failure of Vista 64 b

HP Pavilion a6620f

Product FQ515AA #ABA

Vista Home Premium 64-bit

Hard drive crashed and is unrecoverable.  Installed new beginnings of 750 GB HDD installation, copy the files and gets to the point of "Finish the Installation" when the error message appears

"Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer hardware."

Everything is at HP except the new hard drive that is a Western Digital 750 GB Green.

I also tried a 32-bit and received the same error message.

Suggestions please?

Below you will find an article I googled describing the error and the fix.  Simple.  Once, I changed RAID on AHCI, no problem.

 

Here is the Solution!

Here's how:
 
Option 1: (as Microsoft says, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us)
-Configure your BIOS, change the method to control RAID AHCI or IDE / ATA
-Get your chipset AHCI drivers from intel and load them when the installation program asks you (onscreen that choose you where to install windows, there is a button labeled as 'Drivers')

    Please note that the family pack is an upgrade.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • How to restore Win7 backup on the new system and drive Action Center repair after disk crash

    I have a Dell which took a 64-bit disk crash.

    I created there is not long from the center of the Action, a disk repair and backup of the C: drive on a backup USB 1 TB drive.  These two events has been made by the Windows 7 Action Center.

    I have a new installation disk in the system to replace the one that crashed.

    Is it as simple restore system on the new drive that boot from the ERD and then recognizes the USB disk and backup file Action Center?

    My hypothesis is the combination of the ERD and backup Action Center will bring my system to date content calendar when they were created?

    Problems to watch?

    If your image is on a connected USB external drive, you may need to install a drive to the external hard drive in the installation process.  So you should find a driver for it and store it on a USB key so that you can install it when asked.

    Starting the system on the ERD is simple and still works.  Just press F12 at first then select the DVD drive and click Yes.

  • Reinstall CS3 Web Standard after the hard disk crash. Serial number, but check the upgrade is a problem - from Mac to PC, so does not match my product calling (Studio MX Mac)

    I'm reinstalling CS3 Web Standard after a hard disk crash. I have my serial number, but after entering, it does a check of upgrade, and at the time wherever I upgraded I also did a single switch from Mac to PC - so my product calling (Studio MX Mac) has a serial number starting with "WSM600"... ", while the upgrade check won't accept - Studio MX Mac is not yet available as an option. This happened once before and I had to work with a representative by phone (I had to click in a hidden part of one of the activation screens to get a number, if I remember correctly), but apparently Adobe that does more. And the page of "www.adobe.com/go/activiation" the phone message directs you to doesn't seem to have an option for this problem either.

    So, what is the replacement or her work around this problem now?

    Hi lkauffman,

    The serial number must be unlocked for activation.
