East - Windows 8 runs in a HP 530?

I have a HP 530 with Windows XP installed. I've heard that Windows XP support will end this month of April, so I think I need to install a newer version of Windows. The new Windows is 8.1, but I don't know if or how it works in a 530 HP.

So my question is:

I try to install Windows 8, or should I rather to install 7?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, your laptop is good enough to install windows 8

    Hello:

    I'm not sure that there is a 'one size fits all' answer to this problem, if you google the error.

    The most common solution is to try to install the SATA driver.

    Here is the link to the SATA drivers you need for your model. Download and extract to a usb flash drive.

    First file listed is for 64-bit operating systems.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?AGR=Y&DwnldID=22194&ProdId=2101&lang=eng&OSVersion... =

    Use the Drive Options - Advanced method to install and then select the option load a driver.

    If you check the box, only the compatible SATA driver is selected.

    See if it works.

  • Files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions

    I get this window popping up that reads, "files required for Windows to run correctly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.»  To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files.  Insert your Windows XP Professional CD2 now. "The problem is that I'm not running XP Professional.  I am running XP Media Edition (do not know what version - when I look at 'System' in the control panel it says version 2002, but the OS disc that came with my computer says version 2005 with update rollup 2).  In any case, I only have an installation disc, and when I insert it, the computer tells me it's the wrong disc.  What should I do?

    God help us all...

    Is the CD you have an XP bootable installation CD authentic or some kind of restore CD provided with your system (they are not the same thing).  If it's a CD of Windows, this Service Pack is on the CD?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    What is your Service Pack installed?  If you are not sure, do the following:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the results here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and what appears to be personal information for you, simply delete the personal information of the pasted information.

    When you see a message like this:

    Windows file protection
    Files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions.  To maintain system stability, Windows must restore the original versions of these files.

    I hope that you are curious to know what is the file and when you know that, you can decide what to do about it.

    You must click Cancel, and then click Yes to keep the file, then you will have an event to watch which will tell you what the problem is the file.

    Search where you sign in to see what is the name of file system Viewer, then decide what to do.

    The event will look something like in this example:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: Windows File Protection
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 64005
    Date: 10/01/2011
    Time: 14:41:56
    Description:
    The protected system file taskmgr.exe had not been restored in its original, valid version because the Windows File Protection restoration process was cancelled by user interaction, user name is Jose.  The file version of the bad file is unknown.

    When you know what the file is, you can decide what to do about it.  There are probably other copies of the files on your system, or you can get the files from another source.

    A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

    eventvwr.msc

    Click OK to launch the event viewer.

    Check your event observer system log and look for a proposed Windows file protection event.

    If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

    When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

  • Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume, because it is write protected.

    I can't get the start menu appears in safe mode then I have botted on a cd with the command prompt and when I type chkdsk/r, so, it gives me "windows cannot run disk checkingo n this volume because it is write protected."  Can someone tell me what I can do to fix this?

    If you encounter a problem that you need help, follow these steps:

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    What you see you don't think you need to see?

    What do not you think that you should see?

    Fill in the blank: my system worked well until: _.

    If you just want to start by running chkdsk /r on your hard drive (a good idea), I would follow the instructions below:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix all the problems.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the command prompt.

    Start by checking the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

  • I have WINDOWS XP, run office 97 / Access 97. What is the most recent windows that run these?

    I have WINDOWS XP, run office 97 / Access 97.  That's all

    I really need and want in the categories of personal finance.

    However, I need a more powerful and faster computer for our world today.

    What is the latest computer and office versions that will run office 97 / Access 97?

    Office 97 is not compatible with any version of victory, win7 & win8 and is no longer supported (no update security)

    Most of the problems are with outlook, so if you install, custom Setup to not include outlook, for a \Office97 \Program Files (x 86) folder

    If using win7 see this first Ko http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978591 if this applies also to the win8, I cannot say.

    If you are using win7 Pro (not the Home version) you can use virtual Windows XP and install Office 97 in this environment.

    Office 2007 and especially relies entirely on win7 & win8

    A more powerful/fast PC will make no difference for Office 97

  • TouchSmart 600: windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer

    I had a Touchsmart 600-1120 Windows 7, don't know if it's 32-bit or 64-bit. I had to replace the hard drive and I bought a Seagate st2000dx001-1ns164 model. After installing the new drive, I used the recovery disks, but when the pc reboots I get the following message: "windows could not setup configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Are there new drivers I need to install and if so, where can I find the?

    Thank you.

    I suspect that the reason for the 2 TB drive vs the 750 GB drive that was there.  All of the recovery check the hardware on the PC which is used and rejects the hardware changes if it differs too.  I don't know a way around this limitation.  I suspect that a copy of Windows 7 retail install OK but then you have all the drivers, FOUND HERE.

    Another way would be to get a new 750 GB drive to replace the original failed drive.

  • Error: "files which are required for Windows to run properly must be copied into the DLL cache.

    I need some serious help please someone... I get a message that Windows File Protection is! and he says that "files which are required for Windows to run properly must be copied into the DLL cache" that I know, but I do not know why this has happened... I think it happened because of an update which took place about 2 days ago cause that is when it started, but I've tried all t0 get rid of it. I tried to disable using "regedit" in the run screen and it did not help... I need help with fixing this. I don't have my copy of Windows XP Professional Moose because this Pc is old, and I just kept to upgrade. Can someone guide me please in the right direction and the easiest that I'd appreciate it, thanks Chris!

    Thanks to all who tried to help, it means a lot!  I have no idea what happens but I tried to run a complete scan with antivirus program McAfee I was BTW it was free because of the internet service gave to me to be a customer with them, (I guess they have an ongoing case) not much of a cause I had nothing else problems with McAfee all for about 5 years and they are so much better programs out there (to new my opinion) but on with my story so whenever I tried to run a full scan or fast he rode every time error cannot start scan try again and so on, so I called them and they could not understand what the problem was and finally reinstalled but it doesn't work and of course they wanted me to buy a version... So I said forget it and went with one of the best Antivirus out there (my opinion only) programs free and it scanned and found some articles ad and he never came back! So I'm lucky so far and happy! Once again thanks to Jose @ and @ John for help and getting back to me, that shows the high level of awareness and dedication... So thank you to you two! I have no idea of what the problem was I think that he had with the Ad-ware and anti virus program does not properly and somehow obtained a "bug" If you want to. Have an awesome day and thank you and if I can ever be useful I'll do my best! I was wondering something quick you guys like Avast Internet security because I've had some people said he is well worth and had some interesting features, I personally put AVG but I was wondering about obtaining notice! Thanks for the tips when you get the time!
