He had to come back to Win 7

Hello, I got a new Inspiron 17R (5720) in December which has win 8 on it. I'm there for the school which I am majoring in computer network and security. I found a lot of test software and I need to use programs are not supported. Part of my tuition is a copy of Windows 7 Pro I was wondering if you had a step by step procedure to uninstall win 8 and install Win 7.

BTW: You can find an excellent wiki on Win 7 install on Dell computers, written by one of the Rockstars of this forum here.

  • ENVY of HP dv6-7215tx Notebook PC back for win 7

    Somebody has experiences in return HP dv6-7215tx Notebook PC ENVY come back to win 7 HP with any success, win 8 just don't do it for me?

    Main prob trying to get around the raid drivers.

    Hello:

    See if it works...

    Download the drivers from this link below (first or second file listed - 32 or 64 bit depending on the case).

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?AGR=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=23060&keyword=Intel+RAPI...

    Extract the files on a usb flash drive.

    With the flash player and the installation of W7 media connected to the computer, boot from the installation of W7 media.

    After selecting the install now option, select the training - Advanced menu, Options and select the option load a driver.

    You should now see the storage driver files listed.

    If you check the box, it only includes the compatible driver.

    Follow the prompts and hopefully W7 should install.

    You can then use all the W7 x 64 drivers and software by the dv7t-7000.

    DO NOT USE ALL DOWNLOADS OF BIOS OR FIRMWARE FROM THIS LINK

  • If I lose LTE when I come back on the cover he always says 3g

    I think I need to reset something, do not remember what.

    If I get out of the cover, when I come back on the cover custom phone access back to the tower or signal.

    Brand new 6 s, darnit

    How do I please you?

    Hey Randyaaaa,

    Not being is not able to connect to the cellular network when he returned in coverage areas. I had something like that happen to me before.

    What I would say is first reboot the phone by holding down the button on/standby 15 seconds, and then dragging the cursor on the screen.

    Once restart you the phone see if it connects properly. If this does not work I suggest to reset the network settings. This clears things like networks and Wi - Fi passwords remembers.

    To reset all network settings tap Settings > general > reset > reset all network settings. The phone will reboot and that usually solves problems like this.

    See you soon

  • Firefox keeps "Unresponsive" at random, and then comes back after 10 to 15 seconds.

    Firefox keeps "Unresponsive" at random, and then comes back after 10 to 15 seconds.

    I saw this problem sent by others.

    I had this problem for several weeks already and were very frustrated by the latter. I disabled all my Add ons clear all caches etc.

    I've finally updated Java of V6.x to V7 and it seems to fix the problem. (I noticed that FF disabled Java due to the incompatabilities).
    I'll be watching it but it seems much more quickly.

    Hey wombat,

    If the upgrade of Java solves your problem, it would be great if you can mark this as resolved subject, so that other people with the same problem can benefit from advice that you gave.

    Thank you!

  • Messages sent from one account comes back as another

    People:

    I recently moved to 10.9 after many years to 10.6... I have multiple e-mail accounts set up in the two [I have a triple boot MBPro 09]... but lately spend most of my time to 10.9.  A number of times where I got Mail highlighted in my account at the top of the page, sent an e-mail to him... but the answer comes back to the account number two, reported as being on the second account?  Check "sent" from the number an account shows that it was sent from this account. but the return/reply came back at number two and marked as ' of' the second.  Both accounts are distinct types and it's a bit embarrassing to have that happen... Since "accounts" do not have "send as" or options "answer to" I don't know how this happens...  In fact a few years ago, my wife running 10.6 MacBook had the same question... do not think that we have never solved this problem... so I think that it is a "known issue" with Mail... do not know what is "known" in this topic.

    Thank you

    e.e.p.

    Try mail/preferences/AccountType account information. Select an account, and then access the server of outgoing (SMTP) mail. In the menu drop-down select list server SMPT Edit. Then set up a server for each e-mail account that is associated with the e-mail address. Then go to each account and set this server as the Mail Server outgoing (SMTP). You can click on use only this server if you wish.

    Mail/preferences/writing/sending messages - set to the selected mailbox account.

  • A problem of time unusual Windows: time of Windows always comes back to the year 2005

    Specifications:

    Microsoft Windows XP Professional
    Version 2002
    Service Pack 3

    AMD Athlon XP 2700 +.

    At the start, and sometimes even if the computer is running, the windows of time always comes back to the year 2005, while maintaining the right hour, minute, second, day and month.

    I tried a number of solutions such as the "authoritative time server configuration", analysis of the computer for viruses and restarting the service of time via the command prompt, but without success. I am able to synchronize the time with a server, but only after the change of the year 2011.

    My installation of Windows is updated regularly and I'm always connected to the internet. I'm pretty sure that this is not a BIOS problem I replaced the CMOS battery and have ensured that the BIOS time is correct.

    In addition to the usual questions that arise in some programs due to an incorrect time, I noticed that when you use Firefox 4, the Google search engine always resets to "Instant Search" despite my having the clocks to the correct year.

    Any ideas?

    If I read your messages, I have that, amongst other times, pick up this always happens at startup.  This is the case, you can first check that the time is set correctly in the BIOS before you boot into Windows.  If it is, and, as you think, a program is causing this problem so the task is to know which.  A lot of startup programs each time you start Windows.  The boot configuration with minimum nude of running processes is called "Safe Mode".  So start your computer Safe Mode (press F8 as your computer starts).  When he arrives, check the date and time.  If it of OK and has not changed, then one of the other optional components must be the cause.  To narrow down that one, you can use "msconfig" to toggle the startup items groups until you find the one that is causing your problem.  The procedure for doing this is described in this article:

    "How to solve configuration errors by using the System Configuration utility in Windows XP"
      <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310560 >

    I start by disabling everything in the "Startup" tab  If this solves the problem, then I start allowing things in this tab a little at a time until I have find the culprit. If the Startup tab does not resolve the problem, then I try disabling items in the tab "Services".  I usually start with non-Microsoft services.

    Of course on the machine who recently had this problem, you could try a shotgun approach and do a simple "System Restore" to a point in time before this problem.  It will probably fix the problem, but you will not know what caused it.

  • Router EA6900 IP comes back to original

    I have an EA6900 which is IP address changes every few weeks back to the orginal 10.x.x.x network.  The initial installation, it was reconfigured to a192.168.x.x and we have a several devices with static IP for when he comes back, these devices become inaccessible.  Someone had this problem? I fight the powah or simply configure my static devices in the 10.x.x.x?

    If the router changes its range of IP and DHCP default 192.168.1.x to 10.x.x.x address, this is due to an IP address conflict detected on the network from somewhere (self Heal)

    Usual causes are:

    1. NAT behind a NAT, the ISP Modem is to give the router WAN one IP address in the 192.168.x.x range
    2. Another device on the network has the same IP address as the router
    3. Another DHCP server is handing out IP addresses in the same IP range as the router.
  • Windows Update - it gets to the final stage of the update every time it goes to "Starting Windows" and then it all comes back to the update

    Original title: Windows Update keeps reseting

    My computer had a mandatory update that began when turned on. Happens to the last step of the update every time, it goes to the "starting Windows" and then it all comes back to the update. Turn on the computer and then next turn has not changed anything either, and I can't after that.

    Hi Reilly,

    Thank you for the update on that.

    Please follow the steps in method 1, by our Support Engineer Ganesh Achar B replied on 12 February 2015 on the last response.

    If you are able to start the computer in safe mode, take note of the number of KB updates which fails to install.
     

    Also you can restore the system in safe mode.

    Check out the link below to perform a restore of the system.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/features/system-restore

    Warning: System Restore affects file system of Windows, programs and registry settings. It can also make changes to scripts, files, batch and other types of executable files created under any user account on your computer. System Restore does not affect personal files, such as e-mail, documents, or photos, so it cannot help you restore a deleted file. If you have backups of your files, you can restore files from a backup.

  • Trying to save work in progress in PSE13 and come back with always visible layers

    I'm new to this idea of layering.  I had a project completed, but need to come back.  When I recorded it, it was like a main structural element, I changed it to jpg.  It hurt?  Because when I open the saved image, there are no layers.

    JPEG will not retain the structure of the layer.

    Do not flatten the layers when you are done in an editing session, and then do a save as and choose PSD file format.

  • Can we ignore the issues and come back later?

    When you take the exam of the DCA, we jump and then come back to them later questions.

    I know that you cannot mark for review later.

    Thanks for the tips.

    Several tasks relating to the review are independent of each other, so you could make their task with any order of your choice. But other tasks are related for you wouldn't be able to do a task later successfully if you have completed a task earlier.

    For example - you can have 1 task to change some rules a cluster your DRS, but could have jumped the previous task in which you had to create the DRS cluster.

  • Forget a network on the iPhone and it comes back later

    Tell me if this has happened to you.

    You go to the supermarket and there's an open wifi hotspot it which does not require a key, but you don't need this WiFi now.  my iPhone connects automatically, making it difficult to receive messages because this wifi * or does not have adequate connectivity or has a sign on the page, you don't want to fool around with.  So, I want to just forget about it.  So I do, go to settings > wifi, find the network, click on the i and hit "forget network".  We forget... for now.

    I'll be back another time, and it reconnects to the network.  I have to then forget it all over again!

    I have the setting for "ask to join networks" turned off the coast.  Per the note below the setting, he said "knows networks will be attached automatically, if no known networks are available, you will need to manually select a network."  With that, a popup is constantly asking to join my clutter networks.  I want the phone automatically join my home network, work network and a few other networks like individual houses with wifi band.  I do not want to connect to this * network supermarket, never.  implies remark to me that I have to go to network settings and select a network to join it and then if it is known it will connect automatically, whereas with this on he keeps asking to connect, always.

    Something I noticed is that when I go to my wifi settings on my Mac at home and watch the networks recorded, it seems to remember all the networks I never joined including this wifi supermarket.  I empty this list, and at some point, everything comes back!  Icloud remember all my networks and do not allow me to blow out them?

    I have reset my network preferences to see if that helps, and the question comes up eventually.  I have not tried to move to a new ID from icloud, which isn't really an option at this time.

    Reflections on how to remedy this situation?

    Yes, iCloud will synchronize networks between devices, for 'help you '. You can clean it by no synchronization each device and remove then add them slowly back one by one.
