You have to BOOT from the CD/DVD - do not try to run it from inside of Windows.

What you were doing similar to standing on a carpet... and then tries to pick up the carpet with your hands without take off of coverage somehow your feet (your weight/mass).

Regarding Windows 8 - you could probably download the upgrade as well.

    the problem is:
    1: your portege bios does recognize that some machines CDROM
    2: the installation procedure for Windows XP do not know how to deal with these CDrom devices

    the only way is to return to a DOS (fat32) environment and load the appropriate drivers for your CD-ROM USB from a floppy, then start the BACK-XP Setup (winnt.exe)

  • How to install a new hard drive and create recovery disks before installing the new drive?

    HP Pavilion Dv5 - 2077 cl/entertainment laptop
    Product #: WQ799UA #ABA
    Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello-

    So for a while now, I get a blue screen randomly, popping up all the time and some time, who is going to "clear my physical memory" or something and then restart after like 30 seconds. I posted in the forums, once it all started and support told me to run tests and finally told me that my hard drive has been the reason for these constant errors. Then I backed up everything, in anticipation of a real accident.

    I'm about to order a new hard drive from Newegg.com, and I would like to know if it is difficult to replace a hard drive in a laptop, or if I should have Geek Squad do it for $50. In addition, I don't think I have the disk for the operating system that came with my computer, how do I order that HP and how much is it?

    And, last but not least, is there a message or a video with instructions on how to install a hard drive and operating system?

    Here is the hard drive Im currently looking, if could let me also know if this would be my laptop and if it's a good idea that would be great:

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Yes, that's exactly what you do

  • How to install the new HDD on Satellite M70?

    Hi, I have a Satellite M70 PSM75E, I want to move a hard drive of 250 GB, can give me instructions how to install and what type of disk HARD inface do I go?
    Your help is appreciated

    Hello

    It is difficult to say if the 500 GB will work in this good old classic... I think that 250GB should be sufficient for all applications you want to install.

    However, you could try the 500 GB. If it doesn t work you can bring back to your computer store or you can test it directly in the shop. Then you'll know if it of an option for you or not. Be creative! ;)
