How can I re - install Windows on my DM1Z?

Hello

I recently bought a DM1Z with AMD E350. I like the laptop, but it came pre-loaded with a ton of software that I do not use and, frankly, don't like.

Microsoft Office 2010 starter, Norton and about a dozen HP tools.

I long for the day when the PC manufacturer will be available PCs totally clean, or with a simple installation of Windows, if they really and THEN give users a list of tools that can be installed.

Anyway, how can I reinstall the OS, so that I can skip all (or almost) the extras?

Apart from the fact that the DM1Z doesn't have a CD/DVD player, I didn't have any software in the box.

Here I have a collection folder in the D: drive, but I can't access the contents via windows Explorer.

Thank you

It is possible that your system HP Recovery Manager has the possibility of the recovery of the reduced image. Reduced image recovery installs the operating system and required HP software but does not install any software trial version.

Which can be verified in turn the computer laptop and typing on the F11 key to call the HP Recovery Manager.

Read this web document on options for HP Recovery manager. for more information on the minimum image recovery.

    If your copy of Windows is preinstalled on a computer, it's an OEM copy - and the license CANNOT be transferred to another computer.

    Nobody don't keep records of this license has been actviated by which - above all, Microsoft. Data for registration and Activation are stored on separate servers and correlate precisely for this reason.

  • How can I re install windows 7 Home premium

    I downloaded widows 8 two weeks ago and, even if I like it, I found that it is not compatible with my Sony VAIO 3 year one-piece desktop computer because it windows * does not download some drivers like the built-in webcam and microphone.

    I need to re install Windows 7 Home Premium for which I bought through for download on the Microsoft Store in the United Kingdom. I have a product key and the purchase of reception ect. How I can do what I've searched and searched and cannot find any where on the internet that shows me how to do this. I would appreciate your advice and help, and more important again some instructions.

    When double boot with older versions of Windows, you must install the older version of Windows first (in this case Windows 7) on the boot drive. Create a partition, and then install Windows 8.

    Another thing, you would need a full version of Windows 8, Windows Pro 8 is an upgrade and you used to update the license of Windows 7 Home Premium eligible you want because you would be in non-compliance.

    Buy a full version of Windows 8

    If you want to build your own PC and install Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro or an additional operating system running in a virtual machine or a separate partition (including a Mac), you can buy Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro System Builder (OEM versions). If available in your country or region, Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro System Builder products can be purchased at participating stores, you will need to ask a the sales representative for more information.

    Probably no way you can get a Windows XP disk not paying... much less by not paying.

    Find a friend, family member, knowledge, grumpy man who might have a copy of Windonws XP not only the same edition (probably Home Edition), but type (probably OEM), then your friend can use probably stuck product key somewhere on the machine in question to install from the CD borrowed or copied.

  • How can I re - install Windows Vista without the media?

    machine will not start in vista

    I have a gateway W34DUA with windows vista it will not load vista how do you get the thing to reinstall without a disk I'm thinking it was pre loaded

    or can I get a disc and use the product key from the back and reinstall?

    Hello

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    "Full factory recovery"

    http://support.gateway.com/s/software/Microsof/Vista/7515418/7515418su531.shtml

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • How can I clean installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using a upgrade disc?

    Originally, I had a Windows Vista 64 - bit o/s office.

    I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit o/s

    The first time I ran this 'upgrade', I made the mistake of selecting the option UPGRADE instead of using the CUSTOM option.

    For some time since I've done the 'upgrade' I got BSOD problems including caused by video and WebCam drivers.

    This is why last week, I took the plunge and decided to reinstall Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using my UPGRADE disc (the disc is not FULL version)

    I selected CUSTOM

    I saw, I had two partitions:

    Disk 0 Partition 1: Win_RE

    Disk 0 Partition 2: CDrive (c :))

    I couldn't find an option to delete my partitions and perform a new installation.

    I ran this and finished installing fine but did not format my drive and it change named my windows to windows.old. Things seem to be ok on my PC, now that I've done this, and I don't take BSoD right now.

    However, I was told that I should be able to achieve a COMPLETE clean install delete partitions to force the OS to reformat and recreate the C: partition.

    The menu:

    Discount

    Load the driver (I have no idea what is this option)

    To make changes to partitions, restart Windows from the installation disc

    I could not click on an option to delete/reformat my partitions and thus abandoned the process.

    I then let the disc (forgive my ignorance) and restarted the PC. I dropped in the BIOS and set to boot from the DVD drive.

    This did not do anything to bring up the WINDOWS SETUP option. It would simply start Windows after that, I suspect, he couldn't find the exe file to start.

    Thus, while everything seems to work fine, I'm frustrated that I can't run a clean full install like what I'm doing doesn't work.

    If someone is able to give me advice on how I can get the installation routine to show this option which would be more useful.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    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.
