  Hello

  You have very limited options now that you have deleted the recovery partition.

  The only legal Windows 7 download available is now Microsoft, as Microsoft has stopped DigitalRiver Windows 7 ISO downloads.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery

  But Microsoft only provides these downloads for Windows 7 keys to selling product at retail, not preinstalled OEM product keys (Dell, HP, etc.).

  As you have licensed preinstalled OEM (Dell, HP, etc.), contact the manufacturer of your computer to order recovery media that they must provide for a fee, if they still have available which is very doubtful.

  Or you can also borrow the same exact retail edition DVD of Windows 7 and use your product key to reinstall.

  See you soon.

  Download Windows 7. ISO file from the download page of the store. Then create a bootable DVD of the file .iso (see the last part of my post).

  You need to save your documents (word, excel, photos, music, etc.) to a disk external USB or DVD media before starting the installation. As all applications will need to be reinstalled so look for product keys and media.

  Once the DVD has been created the you have to start from it and to proceed with an installation "Custom"and clean. "

• Question seeks to clean install 10 Windows on the drive of the merger. El Capitan.

  Problem: try a clean install of Windows 10 via the Boot Camp Assistant on an iMac 27 inches (Late2013) with 10.11.4 installs hours (more than 8 hours) and then failed to install Boot Camp updates. Essentially installation take much long than normal and cannot install updates of the Apple software or create normally start Windows Boot Camp 10.

  Background: After problems of slowing down after upgrading to 10.11.4 (with improved Bootcamp Windows 10) who had previously worked fine for 10 months, to the point of a start of OS X time, I decided to do a clean install of my iMac with Fusion 3 to disk.

  As I was unable to remove the partition from Boot Camp through BCA because of his holding always at the same load, I used Internet recovery and reset the Fusion drive. This then required me to repair the partition of Fusion by car through THE "fix" option which seems to work very well. And reinstalled OS X 10.11.4 which works fine now (delays etc..)

  Try using BCA to create a new partition Boot Camp and a clean Windows 10 install after downloading an image of disk W10 directly from Microsoft (Win10_1511_1_English_x64), BCA by downloading software updates and by selecting the desired partition, it began to restart and initialize the installation. However the whole process has been very slow, each step takes much longer than usual, to progress. Leave for hours rest a blank screen or with a circle of rotation.

  I tried with another stick USB 3 and also a USB 2 stick, but none has made a difference.

  In the last attempt, I left running overnight and after 8-9 hours, he finally reaches the top of desktop Windows 10 and the update of Apple Bootcamp starts to load updates. However, he just hung and even after 2 hours, nothing was. Reboot and try once again has been the same.

  After that I tried to create a Windows Installer via BCA 8.0 however it gives just a TPG error when you try to select the drive (due to el Capitan I guess?)

  After four days of efforts, I'm a loser on how to get the Windows 10 on the Boot Camp partition. I can't even install W8 and upgrade due to the error of TPG.

  Any help or suggestions how to proceed with the diagnostic / resolution of the problem would be appreciated.

  Details:

  System: iMac (27 inch, end of 2013), 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 M 4096 MB, OS X 10.11.4

  • Nothing other than the keyboard and mouse attached via the USB ports, as well as the key USB of BCA. No other attached devices.
  • Reset memory NVRAM, SMC and ran more than once disk utility. No problem not reported.  Ran NVRAM reset before each attempt.
  • At ran EtreCheck report which seemed OK.
  • Verification of diagnosis ran who is childless.

  A detail I noticed after the merger by car there are now two Macintosh HD images when you use boot option. One previously. Are named "Macintosh HD" and "Macintosh HD2". I remember being Yosemite simultaneously in three, but which has been fixed in an update.

  In addition, it seems that no recovery partition. Cmd + R lance Internet recovery.

  Summary:

  Q1: Should it take 4 + hours to install Windows 10 via BCA?

  Q2: Al must ultimately be so slow when initially W10 desktop?

  Q3; What I do once I arrive at the office of W10 but it automatically updates the graphics driver as BC update is simply suspended for centuries and get a working driver to restart at least W10?

  Q4: is there a problem with the disk HARD the Drive of Fusion that is causing all this delay and slow install / boot? ON the clean install OS X 10.11.4 it is back to be fast as usual and all tests show things are OK but W10 goes on the part of the HARD drive. No way to verify this beyond diagnosis or Etrecheck?

  Q5: Y at - it no problem with the GPT / MBR that may be causing the delay etc. ?

  Q6: How can I use my existing WindowsImageBackup backup from the previous W10 with the BCA install usb drive or how to create a USB stick otherwise recovery disk with my other single Mac have W7?

  Q7: How can I install W8 as I once did on Yosemite, via el Capitan without a mistake to TPG on selection of disc?

  Details:

  Day 5. Attempt at 6.

  Partition Boot Camp delete and try again install via BCA. First question, is that when the startup it goes to a blank black screen. For a time nothing left. Reset then using alt to select windows training results in almost instantaneous startup of the BCA message created and the beginning of the installation.

  4 1/2 hours from start of Windows 10 initial signature window.

  Then the second question. One to reach the Boot Camp update Office tries to start and install the drivers. Allows you to "list files...". "stage then sits at the bar about 5% green for 1 to 2 hours and does nothing. All actions in the Office of the W10 takes ages.

  In the meantime, auto update of the W10 appears a message saying that the updated graphics drivers as one of the few messages or actions during this period. Looks like Nvidia install with the entire package of experience (unwanted) etc. and very probably not the correct gpu driver.

  Finally deciding to cancel the installation of BC by killing the Setup.exe process. Then copy Boot camp install files on the desktop. Lasts 30 minutes to copy. Run again and this time, although taking 15-20 minutes to download and install later with the success message.

  Check the graphic driver it shows a yellow exclamation mark, so the following Microsoft instructions I use the uninstall option via the device and then Manager (slowly) come on board to load and download the latest Nvidia driver on their site for the GTX 780 M for 64-bit W10 etc. The same thing that I had used previously. Slow with running the Nvidia Setup program again, but eventually it works only to say that he could not install as unrecognized graphics device...

  He ends up with Microsoft PnP driver so it's at least sufficient start and run it again BC of the figure updates as all other drivers have been installed. To restart, but I get an error of K-Mode that is most likely related to this driver graphic and not possible to start in the new W10 Boot Camp partition after 7 hours.

  I have a picture of W10 backup recovery (WindowsImageBackup) I've had in a few weeks, but it will not install bet for the installed W10. I try with the ACO created the USB windows but can't seem to get a way to get into recovery mode and to get the menu to install it. I don't have a way to create a USB W10 recovery key now because my other Mac has just installed W7.

  Finally I tried to count a reset of the Recovery boot up option but it seems that it will take longer to start.

  I also went to the recovery and selected Boot Mode safe, but it opens on an empty black window and he's here doing nothing.

  Looks like I'll have to restart on via BCA and reinstall and try and solve the problem of graphics in order to install driver updates from BC and restart to W10 and hope that with the drivers, it returns to the operation and the normal starting time. Then update the gpu driver.

  I used and installed Boot Camp several times with over the years including previously an upgrade of W8.1 > W10 I used for over 6 months without problem. I've never known these installation very long or ice once in Windows even for the initial start upward.

  For any help or suggestion would be appreciated, and this seemingly simple process has now expanded to five days.

• How to recover a bad hard drive with no recovery software.

  I'm working on a 4-b000 want Pro.  The hard drive has failed.  I have a replacement drive on the way, but I did not create a recovery disk when the laptop was purchased.  It had windows 7-64 bit on this subject before.  What are my options to get a recovery media for this laptop?

  James

  Hi James,

  There are two options available.

  1. you can order a replacement set of support for recovery from the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  It will also recreate the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 USB flash drive Installer.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  Using another PC - just download the correct disk Image ( that it must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - IE Home Premium, professional etc. ) from the link below--the source of the Windows Image is Digital River.

  Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

  Once done, use an application like Rufus to create a bootable Windows 7 usb flash drive.

  When creating, tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Insert the Windows 7 flash player.  Select the menu of Boot Options ( f9 ).  Use the arrow keys to select the flash drive and press ENTER.

  Use the flash drive to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• How to recover windows 8 key product when it comes preinstalled on a computer laptop toshiba

  I have a toshiba laptop with windows 8 pre-installed and for some reason, the operating system does not start, the indicated error is "[not] media control. I have not create the recovery disks. Is it possible to extract the product key from the BIOS? Help, please

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 8 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

• How to recover windows system when it is destroyed hard drive and not COA?

  I'm sure that many people have encountered this problem. My system, including hard drive, was destroyed by an electrical surge, and I had no record of the serial number of the product.  I had a valid installation of Win XP - How can I get a new number to use for my replacement system?

  The answer depends on many factors that you don't specify.  Most of the OEM machines (Dell, HP, Compaq, etc.) have an OEM license that is valid for the first machine that it has been installed on.  If your motherboard was part of the 'system' that has been fried, your license was probably fried with it.  Some OEM licenses are locked to the BIOS of the motherboard so that if you replace the motherboard by the same jury from the same manufacturer, then the original installation disc can recognize it and install Windows XP without even asking for authentication.

  And it is this:

• How to recover windows 8 windows Enterprise 8

  My sister's cell phone came with windows 8 is installed. She had improved to 8.1 but decided to get it back. It was damaged when she did a cover of the plant. She did not re install the anti virus. I tried to re instal but couldn't, I downloaded windows 8 Enterprise Edition. How to get back his computer Windows 8.1 without having to pay for it. It is a notebook from Toshiba. I went to their site, but received the message of their service is not available in Nigeria.

  Thank you stephanie for your answer.

  It's the OS that crashed. I went on the Toshiba site and found a way to recover the operating system - turn off the computer, turn on and press F12. In advance options press full reset. I did this and got to windows 8. Unfortunately, Microsoft rejected the product key provided with your computer. I'm still trying to resolve this.

  But overall, I managed to recover the computer to factory settings.

  I think what's happened with the initial recovery was that there were power outages for long periods during the recovery that lasted almost 10 hours. Recovery files might not complete.

  I have all the files in place now, including the recovery disc.

  I hope that it might help others.

• Satellite L850D - how to recover Windows 8?

  Hello guys.

  I had virus problems with my Toshiba Satellite L850D and decided to restore the factory settings.

  During the recovery, it crashed while I held the power button and when I started it again, it seemed that windows 8 had been removed.

  I took the laptop to a local computer repair company that could not recover my windows 8 and windows 7 installed on it.

  I paid around £80 extra when you purchase the laptop for windows 8 already installed on it and I was just wondering if there was anyway to get it back?

  Hello

  Looks like a complicated situation. You can now proceed as follows:

  1. ask someone who is an expert, allow him to copy your important files on a DVD or an external hard drive and apply recovery media to reformat and reinstall the operating system. After reinstalling you can put your files and you'll have a system clean and sober.

  2. press F8, and then choose Safe mode. In this safe mode, you should try to back up your data on an external hard drive as USB should work in safe mode.

  In both cases, you need to retrieve the machine, so just prepare to backup your data and reinstall the Windows operating system.

• How to recover Windows 8 on my laptop satellite?

  So last night my laptop, a Toshiba satellite running win 8, decided to have lunch there himself with a random reboot. I didn't drop it hit or give him any reason to complain about how it is noted.

  Upon restart, it got stuck in the apparently very well known diagnosis/repair of problems fast errors drive loop. I left it overnight to do its thing, which, by this morning, turned have been absolutely nothing.
  I've since come around forums trying to find out how to access some sort of fair recovery menu start from the place with a new resettlement.

  So, as I've been led to believe, is possible either by holding 0 at startup for a menu of recovery, either through f12 for the boot menu. Both are readily available, but unfortunately completely useless. I selected the option to access the recovery menu and was rewarded by the return of the laptop it's repair loop. I selected the option no and it turn off the laptop.

  If someone could advise me what the next step would be to get this traffic rights thing still once, I would be very grateful, because it seems now I'm out of options before buying a new hard drive and windows 8.
  Thank you in advance and also, I'm sorry that I broke the golden rule to search for and join an existing thread first not. I am literally pulling my hair out on this subject.

• How to recover Windows 7 on Latitude 3540

  I bought a Dell Latitude 3540 with Windows 7 Pro.  I installed Windows 8 with the recovery media, but I would like to recover my installation of Windows 7.  Thank you for your time.

  If Windows 8 has been installed with the GPT partition style (when UEFI is present, it is the only supported option), all partitions will be deleted. Therefore, in this case, you must contact Dell support by phone, explain the situation and ask for a new DVD of Windows 7.

  If Windows 8 has not been installed in the GPT partition style (i.e. in the MBR style), and the recovery partition is not affected, you can start Dell Recovery by pressing F11 or Ctrl + F11 when you see the Dell during the boot logo, and it will restore the PC to Windows 7.
