    «"Copy the files on a floppy disk, and then insert the disk on a floppy drive (attached to the laptop).»» »

    G550 is not a floppy drive, then how do I install it

    Yours,

    Mohamed

    I did not understand what you say, but the "install.cmd" is the thing that do the work which is exactly my point of view and why I said you need to follow the exact steps. Therefore change before BIOS run install.cmd will give you a blue screen and you will not be able to start until you change the BIOS setting in compatibility again mode.

    Download this one instead:

    http://consumersupport.Lenovo.com/OT/en/driversdownloads/drivers_show_1687.html

    1. extract and run "install.cmd".

    2. restart the computer and enter the BIOS before trying to restart Windows

    3. change in AHCI in the BIOS mode

    4 Save and exit the BIOS, and then start Windows

    5. enter in Device Manager and choose the Intel SATA controller and select put to update driver. Point to the "C:\DRIVERS\WIN\IMSM" file for the driver.

    6. restart again and everything should work in AHCI mode

  • Re: How to install any boot on the Satellite A300 Vista Manager

    I want to install second OS on my A300 but can't do any boot manager works with Vista.

    IBM os/2 bootmanager can start Vista, but Vista say he can't run winload and hang up, Acronis bootmanager does not see any OS to Vista's NTFS disk...

    Hello

    Vista supports a clean Vista Boot Manager and there you can add all the installed OS.
    I did after I installed my Win XP as second operating system.

    First, I installed Win XP on the second partition but I couldn't start on Vista because Win XP damaged MBR (master boot record). That's why I started again from disk (NOT the Toshiba Recovery disk) Vista and the Vista disc to repair the MBR.
    Then, I started in Vista and edited the BCD. You can use the freetool like EasyBCD because that would be the best way to add a second operating system for the Vista Boot Manager.

  • How to install XP on a laptop used, have CD/DVD but no product code

    I bought a laptop used on three or four years with a genuine version of XP Professional already installed. I have the XP disc with me (has "for refurbished PCs ' printed on it), however I do not have the product code with me when I moved to Southeast Asia. The laptop broke down so I will soon buy another used quality XP laptop.

    Is it possible to install XP on it without the product code?

    If so, is it possible to activate it without a phone call? I have a quad-band GSM, but the voice quality is very poor with calls long distance.

    Thank you

    No product key, no activation.

    Hi snowglobe22,

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forum. We appreciate your interest in Windows 7.

    Upgrading Vista to Windows 7 will affect any of your programs. But it is recommended to backup your data before you begin the installation.

    How to backup a PC

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-7/get/PC-Backup.aspx

    However, because Microsoft is not a technical support for the RC version, it is strongly recommended to leave only known computer users sign up. I recommend you to wait for the RTM and install it instead.

    Here's how to upgrade Vista to Windows 7.


    Before you begin the upgrade:

    • Back to the top of your files on an external hard drive, DVD or CD, USB flash, or network drive.
    • Check the Windows package to make sure that your computer meets the system requirements, you will need Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed and also 8.5 GB of free space on your hard drive.
    • Find your 25-character Windows product key. You can find your product key on your computer or inside the Windows package installer disk-based.

    Steps to upgrade vista to windows 7.

    1. insert the DVD into the drive and start the upgrade Setup program.
    2 click on install now option in the Windows 7 set in place and implementation will begin to copy the files required for installation.
    3 on get the updates for installation page, we recommend getting the latest updates to help ensure a successful installation and to help protect your computer against security threats. You will need an Internet connection to get these updates.

    4 in the license page, accept the license terms, click I accept the terms of the licenseand then click Next.

    5. click on upgrade to aid the which type of installation you want? page if you want to upgrade an existing installation.

    6 installation check upgrade compatibility and gives an error report where all installed applications are not compatible with Windows 7. You will need to uninstall the programs before you start the upgrade.

    7 once compatibility is checked, it starts the upgrade process and follow the instructions on the screen to configure final Windows 7. The keys to Windows 7 will ask you set up during installation, so keep it ready.

    Note: If you upgrade Windows Vista, changes the default task Windows, services and other settings in Windows Vista system can be replaced by the default configuration for Windows 7.

    Hope this information answers your query.

  • Lightroom will not be installed because he thinks that I have Vista OS

    Greetings,

    I try to install Lightroom 6 and got an error saying that my computer will support him not because he is under Vista.  He is actually running Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1.  How can I get it to recognize my OS?  I'd love some suggestions!  Thank you.

    Hi lucindasa,

    You must run the installer in compatibility mode.

    Right click on the Setup file > go to properties > compatibility mode > select the checkbox highlighted in screenshot below, then select Windows 7

    Click OK, and then install it.

    Let us know if that helps.

    Kind regards
