How can I install Windows 8 preview of consumers on a Vista PC that won't start?
Hello world
I want to install Windows 8 because I've tried everything to fix my desktop using Windows Vista pc. Windows will not start even AFTER a full restoration of a Windows PC. I've performed to repair the start several times without success. Safe mode does not even start, it keeps "loading" forever.
(Note: I unplugged my pc connections USB ALL.) Only keyboard, mouse, power supply and monitor are connected)
I created a disc image ISO of Windows 8 on another pc. I tried to install it but windows 8 keeps also download forever.
I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP
Thank you

How can I install Windows 8 of my 1.5 TB external harddrive without formatting?
Well I finally decided to move to Windows 8 (starting from Windows 7 x 64), but I'm stuck in a weird situation here... I image .iso Windows 8 with me but I will not be burn on a DVD, the only option would be either use a USB key or an external HARD disk... Unfortunately my 16 GB USB DRIVE no longer works (and the .iso image file does not in my other USB drives I had remaining)... So I decided to use my drive external HARD on the contrary - but there's another problem... about 750 GB on my HARD drive is full (there are all my files, movies, music, games, etc) and the rest is 'empty '...
So, how can I install Windows 8 of this external HARD drive without formatting? Since I don't have any other "spare" hard drives or USB keys with a lot more storage capacity... And I can't keep them in my laptop because it has only 500 GB...
Can I partition my external HARD drive and secure all my files in one partition, and format the other partition to use it to install Windows 8 on my laptop somehow...?
You can create a partition on your HARD drive and install Windows inside with Universal USB InstallerHere's how you create a new Partition- Open disk management
- Right click on the partition that you want to split > Shrink > select size > Ok
- Unallocated space will appear
- Right-click on > Format give a letter
OR you can install windows on a different partition from your internal HARD drive
You can create a partition in the internal drive and extract files inside Windows and make it bootable with EasyBCD (3rd party free program to change startup options and other things)- Create a new partition using disk management
- Extract the files to install Windows inside
- Open EasyBCD > add new item > WinPE > search for X:\Sources\boot.wim > add
- Reboot and choose the new element added to the startup in
I used this method once and it worked -

For your information, Windows Movie Maker 2.6 is just a "water-down" version designed for computers cannot run the built-in Windows Movie maker 6.0
Windows Movie maker 6.0 comes with Vista.
2.6 MM Windows does not come with Vista. It is not a 'new' program. It is a compromise version.
Excerpt from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=34
OverviewMovie Maker 2.6 is for Windows Vista users whose computer cannot run the Vista's Movie Maker version.
To test whether your computer can run Vista's Movie Maker version:
1. on the start menu, click all programs.
2. click on Windows Movie Maker.If Movie Maker starts, you must not download version 2.6.
If you get an error message that says: "Windows Movie Maker cannot start because your video card does not support the required level of hardware acceleration or hardware acceleration is not available", download and install Movie Maker 2.6.
.............................................................................................................................................
Windows Live Movie Maker is better, contrary to what you feel. Maybe, you're just not used to it?
How can you install version 2.6? Go to the net.
If you like Windows Movie Maker 6.0 so, here's a tutorial to install it in Windows 7 computers.

How can I install Windows 8 on a USB?
I downloaded and installed Windows 8 on a virtual machine, and virtual machine software refuses to let go of my 3D display driver, not allowing not my laptop switch to 3D mode (has a 3d screen) until after I reload.
How can I install Windows 8 on a USB key, that way I can start directly in this USB?
When I run Setup of the computer windows 7, it wants to install Windows just 8 and does not have the ability to install on USB. When I run the Setup program on Windows 8 VM, he just wants to do the same, install Win8 on the virtual machine and does not give the option to choose a disk to install on.
I can make the USB bootable and have put the image ISO of Windows 8 on it, and start since that does not allow me to install on the USB stick (player 1, it only shows drive C: (disk 0) on the laptop).
I would like to have windows 8 bootable from the USB key, so it wouldn't mess up my windows 7 current computer until I can get everything fully backed up and have more time to play with it.
You can not, Windows 8 must be installed on an internal hard drive attached. Only Windows 8 Enterprise supports Windows To Go that allows you to create a portable copy of Windows 8 on a USB key. Windows 8 Enterprise Edition is only available to volume license customers.
