• Clean install of Windows XP Home Edition. How will I know if I need any driver to install?

  I recently installed Windows XP Home Edition on my PC and I don't know if I'm away from all the drivers. Everything SEEMS to work fine, but I just want to know if I do any driver installs.

  Right mouse on my computer, properties, select hardware then click on Device Manager look here on the devices if you see point exclamation or question marks on one of them or more, then you should correct the error by installing the correct driver for these devices, and if you don't see anything. Then, everything is ok with you.

• H8 - 1520t: how to do a clean install of windows 10 on another drive?

  Hi all.

  Today, I decided to make the transition to windows 10. I want to do a clean install, however, because I recently had an SSD and install the OS on it instead of on my hard drive. First of all, I even need my product key to do a clean install on a new drive? I made a clone of my C: dirve just in case something goes wrong, cordially. My SSD is 100% empty and has 110GB available on this subject, but my main hard drive has about 400 GB of stuff on it, so cloning my drive for the SSD drive is out of the picture.

  So basically what I want to know is this: 1. do I need to have my windows key to do a clean install of windows 10 8.1 of windows on a different drive.

  2 if not, how to do a clean install on a new drive

  3. If I need, how can I get it?

  Thank you all

  The simplest solution would be to save the data that you want to keep on an external hard drive, then remove this data and programs from the old hard drive so that only the BONE remains.  From there use migration software from your manufacturer SSD to clone the old drive to the new SSD using a USB to SATA.

  The Windows key is embedded in the BIOS and will be recognized by the computer on any installs.  It would be desirable to collect your key, just in case, using Belarc Advisor, which gives you all kinds of info on your computer.  Do this before doing anything.

  Share your drive and be sure that it is operational.  Now you can perform a new installation of the upgrade of Windows 10 using an ISO bootable.  See step 5 or 6 of this tutorial:

• How to do a clean install of Windows 7 Professional of a DVD on the ProBook s 4530?

  So I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit installed on my laptop and I want to get rid of it completely and to do a clean install of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit from a DVD.
  I don't want to use windows anytime upgrade somehow! Because I have a few serious bugs with my current installation and a clean install, I can be sure to get rid of them

  I'd appreciate if someone could tell me how exactly to do this and if all my data will be deleted. If so, will it download all drivers HP and the software again by myself? :/

  Bugs are not serious but they affect several programs and it is impossible to use my laptop, I was doing.
  And no, I have no recovery option, I don't have any dvd with my laptop, or something like that and personally I didn't do all the backups. Which was a mistake that I won't repeat.
  In addition, because of my college, I get a free copy of win 7 professional so why not use it?
  I have already burned on a DVD, now I just need to detail how a facility own n_n
  So after I installed win 7 Professional I just copy and replace Driverstore and C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRVSTORE instead of download the drivers?
  BTW, I'll accept your next answer as the snap

  You will use the copied Driverstore and C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRVSTORE for is the source of the drivers when you then. Do not replace the folder in the new installation of Windows with the folder that you copied from the initial installation of Windows. It would not be a good idea.

  Once you have done the copy of the file and have it practice you can simply put the installation DVD into the DVD drive and boot from it. There will be a point where asks you if you want to save your previous installation. Say no to it.

  At this stage you can always do a defined recovery disk. I recommend that you do this. This is the copy of the operating system and drivers you purcased your PC with. If you do not want is not a problem like UO can always buy it at HP over the next years.

• How do you determine the activations how I left on an installation of windows xp home edition

  I have a pc I erased some viruses and malware, but seems to have a corrupted registry. I reinstalled Windows XP Home Edition several times with the cd that I bought at the store a few years back. It was my understanding I could install this particular cd not more than 5 times for a single pc. Over the years I've lost track of the way that many times I reinstalled and reactivated this facility. What should I do to see how many activations I left before I reformat and reinstall with this cd and find out that I don't have a working after all installation?

  There is no limit to the number of times you can activate a retail Windows XP version as long as it is only to be installed/reinstalled on one computer.  However, the relocations within a relatively short time may ask you to activate Windows XP by phone.

• How to do a clean install of Windows 7 on Dell Inspiron 7520 (aka Inspiron 15R Special Edition)

  The operating system that are preloaded on my Dell Inspiron 7520 (a.ka. Inspiron 15R Special Edition) is Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium. I have a retail version of Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate and want to do a clean install on my laptop.

  My laptop was able to boot from the retail disk.

  After clicking on 'Install now' and accepted the terms and conditions of Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate, I checked the configuration box "Custom (advanced option" in which a new copy of Windows would be installed. The next screen that displayed contained the following bizzare message: no hard drive found. "Click on load a driver to provide a driver for installing mass storage.

  Could someone tell me where and how to find the mass storage driver?

  I am also having exactly the same problem:

  After getting BSOD (indicating iaStor.sys) every 20 minutes or so I decided to format the laptop and install my copy of opportunity of Win7 Pro SP1. I jumped in the Win7 DVD and I saw that the couldn t of windows setup find any HARD drive to install to.

  I downloaded the drivers from Intel (f6flpy - x 64) and them burned on a CD. It took me a few tries (I kept getting error messages), but the computer finally accepted Intel Mobile Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller drivers.

  Finally, I could see the readers. So I deleted the partition of 1 TB, created two new partitions (~ 100 GB and GB 890) and clicked on 'format' on two of them.

  But when I tried to select ONE of them as the destination for Windows drive, I received the following message:

  "Windows cannot be installed to Disk 0 Partition 3. Details: Windows cannot install to the selected location. "Error 0 x 80300001.

  So now when I turn on my laptop (since there is no operating system or anything), I get a black screen with the following message:

  Windows Boot Manager «»

  Windows could not start; A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:

  blablabla (nothing really useful)

  Status: 0xc0000034

  Info: an unexpected error occurred. »

  Before I read this thread I also tried to change the SATA settings to AHCI and ATA, but both STILL produce ANOTHER problem: installing Windows recognises the hard drives, but it never rose from 0% of the phase of "expanding files" installation.

  Please, can anyone help?

• After a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium, how long will it take to run updates and it will take a lot of bandwidth?

  updates after clean install of Vista Home premium

  I plan on upgrading the hard drive on my laptop two year old, which will require a clean install of Vista Home Edition full.  I live in a remote with the satellite internet service.  I would like to know in advance what will happen after the installation with the updates of the program.  I will ask you to install them? It would take a lot of bandwidth?

  Hi EllenCB,

  Welcome to Windows Vista community responses.

  Once you make a clean installation on your hard drive is erased. Now, when you install the operating system return updates that have been deleted will be delivered by Windows update to install on your computer. To save time and bandwidth, you can directly install Service pack 1 and Service pack 2 for Vista which would contain more updates. Of course when you run Windows update and when you try to download from the internet, your download speed will decrease. It is best to keep your system up to date which will allow your version of Windows to run better.

  Before installing the update, run the checksur tool, this tool is running an ad hoc analysis of inconsistencies that might prevent future maintenance operations. Download the tool from the link below.

• After a clean install of windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, dvd will play not [scrambled] and computer is crashes sometimes and I have to force the reboot.

  I have windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, which has totally collapsed.  By mistake, I installed my operating system 32-bit vista on it.  I bought a new windows 7 Home premium operating system and installed.  I did a clean install after formatting the hard drive [the did twice].  Now dvd will play not [scrambled] and computer is crashes sometimes and I have to force the reboot.  I saw the reference to System 32 on restart options.  Help?

  Original title: operating system 32 and 64 bit

  Have you installed Windows 7 device drivers for your make and model. If this is not the case, then go to the support web site factory and download Windows 7 drivers to a folder on your PC and then first install the drivers for the card mother/chipset, followed by USB, SATA, LAN, Audio and all other pilots.

  Find the website of your computer manufacturer support.

  How do you know if you have a 32 bit or bit 6 vrsion of Windows installed:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/827218

  BIOS updates: you should check to see if there was one, or sometimes several updates BIOS for the motherboard. Read (if provided) which solves the update. Sometimes a newer BIOS update will fix the problem. Read the instructions on how to your BIOS update/flash very carefully and be more you understand the process. There is a risk of a bad flash/update occurs which can make your system unbootable.

  Also check the download site of the manufacture of the graphics card for the latest Windows 7 drivers for your card.

• The clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 without installation disc.

  Hello

  I recently bought a Toshiba laptop with a Home Premium Windows 7 x 64 preload version.  It has not come with a Windows installation disc.  I want to reformat the hard drive and put on a clean version of the same operating system.   Right now my only solution is to find someone with a disk or an iso.  Which turns out to be harder than I thought.   Is it possible to make an image of Win 7 Win 7 without having to make a picture?

  I also own a copy of Windows 7 pro x 64.  Can I use this disc to install, with the key of Win 7 Home Premium?

  Thank you

  FatherFinch

  If you perform a "clean" of Windows 7 Home Premium installation, you will need to buy Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  Someone else using Windows 7 disk is not allowed under the terms of the license Microsoft Softrware.

  Q: I also have a copy of Windows 7 pro x 64. Can I use this disc to install with Win 7 Home Premium key?
