How to install a Samsung Pro 950 m2 in an Alienware 17 R3 successfully.

Not to do:
Contact Dell for help
A direct solution to the other members of Alienware
A direct solution anywhere on the internet
Do not install clean Windows.
Do not use the imagery of recovery.
Auto not cloning software.
Do not use the Dell BIOS.  It doesn't matter if it does not detect that it will always start if you follow my method.
Experiment with the thought that there is an option more easy/better.

I have tried many steps of diskpart and usb ISO windows. I tried the migration.  I tried to change the IDs.

What to do:
Install the driver Samsung NVMe.
Use Macrium Reflect.
Close and remove all applications/devices even in the taskbar of the clock.
Source is the HARD drive.  Destination is the SSD.
Drag partitions of HARD drive one by one to the destination bar.
Adjust the GB to accommodate the additional partitions.  I had to use 225,7 GB to 256 GB C: (3rd partition from left to right) who gave me an extra space for 2 other partitions (the last 2).  The win something and something recovery.
If you use any other imaging/cloning recovery software could not clone all the data from partition 1:1.  Samsung said in the notes that he won't completely clone recovery partitions.
Turn off the PC and remove the HARD drive.  Put the HARD drive on desktop computer and remove all partitions using cmd > diskpart > list disk > select HDD disc number > own type > enter.
Put the HARD drive in the PC.  Turn on the PC.
This can take 2 restarts for the SSD completely to work perfectly.  I had to go through a disc once error checking so that it works very smooth.

* If you can not always start you can load an iso of windows then enter cmd then type bootrec /rebuildbcd press o, then enter then done

Fact.

Results:

Lag and slow disappeared.  Using C: 100% constant 25W from the slow HARD drive means the battery life is longer.  I won 2 + hours according to the 'other '.  She went from 4.5 hours instead of 2.5 of a disconnector of instant power.  980 M

It worked perfectly!  I used Paragon Disk Manager to clone partitions for the Samsung 950 Pro. It would be nice if the BIOS allow you to select the boot drive without unplugging the HARD drive (in my case a Samsung 850 Pro).  No reboot was needed... it initialized from the Pro 950 first. Thank you ANTDX316

  • How to install windows 7 pro, when I mistakenly installed the 32-bit version instead of the 64-bit version

    I just installed windows 7 pro.  Unfortunately, by mistake I installed the 32-bit program on 64-bit program.  now that I try to install the 64-bit, I get the error message: "this installation disc is not compatible with your version of windows.  upgrade I need the disk to correct installation.  so he said to shut down your computer and reboot the installation disc. »

    but when I reboot it just goes directly to the office.  would someone kindly give advice on how I overcame this misadventure?  I know that windows 7 pro on my computer, 32-bit version, but want windows 7 pro 64-bit version.  I still have the discs and software keys... Thank you.
    Prior to this installation, I was running 32 bit XP pro

    You'll need during cratch because there is no way to upgrade a 32 bit OS to a 64-bit version of Windows.

    Check your BIOS to make sure that your DVD drive is set as the first boot device, and then save your settings (if a change was required) and get out.

    With the 64-bit DVD in the DVD drive, restart the computer.

    Choose the "Custom" option and then delete the existing system and Windows partitions, click next to continue the installation,

    Since you enabled the OS using the 32-bit product key most likely you need to activate by phone this time.

  • How to install Windows XP Pro on W2k on the Satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello

    I brought a 2nd hand Satellite Pro, model version SP6100 (PS610E-029ZV-EN), P4 1.7 Ghz, 512 MB, 30 GB, with Windows 2000 Pro installed.

    I can't connect to my wireless router. The switch is in the correct position.
    I have been informed that there could be a conflict between wireless and Win2000 Pro installation. This is why I want to change my WinXP Pro using the key provided with the new laptop (dual operating system). However, I can't reformat using a WinXP Pro disc at first upward, the disc is ignored and Win2000 Pro. If I use the recovery cd (start with holding C and let go when it runs upward), something starts which I presume to be a sequence installation however seconds I see a reference to a (?) drive z, a brief exhibition of three rows of "invalid drive specification" and it still loads Win2000 Pro.

    Can someone advise how (or if!) Can I reformat?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    See you soon.

    Eventually it s a bad boot command but most often it after pressing the C button the laptop should boot from the CD.
    You said something done drive and I think that the start of the player has been activated, but the drive is not able to read the media.
    For me, this looks like a disk failure.

    By the way: check in Manager device if your laptop has installed the wireless network card. In my view, that cannot connect to the router WLan because the map has not been installed. The WLan switch is available because the wireless network card is optional for this laptop. You know?

  • How to install Adobe Acrobat Pro DC as part of the creative cloud?

    He asked me to upgrade, I did, but now cloud creative wonder about buying acrobat, even if I have a subscription. Belongs to Acrobat Pro creative cloud? How is it can't seem to find my license?

    Hi kenpauljr,

    I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused.

    Yes, DC Acrobat is a part of the creative cloud. So if you have creative cloud Acrobat will modernize Acrobat DC.

    Please disable all of the component of creative cloud on your computer & turn it on again.

    Example:

    (1) open Photoshop.

    2) go to help and select Disable.

    (3) it will deactivate the creative cloud together.

    (4) now turn it on again.

    This will activate the creative cloud together with Acrobat DC.

    In case if you have still any question, please let us know.

    We will be more than happy to help you.

    Kind regards
