How to reinstall Windows 8 Pro

Hello

How to reinstall in the same system windows 8 pro with already purchased product key online. I bought one DVD product key. There is a future for guidance only. Because if I'm going to back up the system showing 62 GB size Windows disk. If I backup with 8.5 GB DVD that will work or not. Suppose I'll use 8.5 GB DVD speed appropriate for writing. Please guide me the right way.

Thank you best regards &,.

How to reinstall Windows 8

You have two options:

If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

To do this, follow these steps:

· Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

· Click settings

· Click change PC settings

· Click general in the left column

· In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

Option 2:

If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

Option 3:

A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

    Hello

    I need to reinstall windows XP Pro on my laptop A60.

    I have no idea what to do, I watched the recovery disc and although a complete reinstall is simple, I really want to lose my information that I built.

    I saw Drweekx post and Sylvain's response, but I don't know what are the particions or how to reinstall via the expert mode.

    Is there someone to talk me through it?

    Thank you in advance

    Hi again

    Juddlin I can find you a few subjects. I really put t know where I can write to you. ;) Please stay on this one.

    If you want to install OS using expert mode control his topic http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2513

    At number 7 it of description Put again inside the new size of the partition, and then press ENTER. There you can put 50% of the maximum size of HARD drive. After this HARD drive will be split on both sides. The first (C) will be used for the operating system and all the software you need. The other (D), you can use to store all your sensitive data.

    If you sometimes in the future had to reinstall OS again use Expert mode and reinstall the operating system on the first partition. All the data you have on the second partition, you can use again.

  • How to uninstall Windows XP PRO so that I can install Windows Pro 8.1?

    Problem? My Windows XP PRO is not listed in the control panel. (The system came with the new computer).

    I want to uninstall, & replace it with Windows 8.1 pro (disk).

    Is it done in safe mode? Also how a clean uninstallation is completed?

    MS says that an upgrade is not possible (since '23 programs, etc. need attention').

    All advice appreciated. Best regards, Doug

    Original title: how to uninstall Windows XP PRO, which is not listed in the control panel?

    Of course, it is not in the control panel. This isn't how it works. You must reformat and perform a new installation of Windows 8.

    Your computer will not be able to be upgraded. You must consult the computer manufacturer to see if there is even the disks available to this end for Windows 8. Probably not.

    And, even if all the drivers were available, you always have to reinstall ALL your programs and data on the medium of origin or files and backup of the date.

  • Reinstalling windows 7 pro/restorePLEASEHELP

    I'll buy a new Win 7 PC before they are gone.  I have Win 7 Pro on the old PC.  Can I uninstall and reinstall on the new PC?  How to uninstall it without a full factory restore?  My computer tech said a full factory restore could damage the system, given that I added 4 g of RAM, a 1 TB internal hard drive and a power of 500W.  I have still my discs and they seem to have no scratches, I checked.  My PC is 3 years old and I intend to sell it.

    If the old PC came preloaded with Windows 7 Professional, you can not transfer to the new computer. This is because its what you call an OEM license.

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    What is OEM software? :

    http://support.Microsoft.com/GP/oemsupport_1/en-GB

    Licensing FAQ:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/OEM/en/licensing/sblicensing/pages/licensing_faq.aspx

    If this is a separate store bought license, then all you need to do is to withdraw the product licence in form of the machine or reinstall the original license that came with this machine.

    I leave the Windows 7 Professional license, since the new computer comes preloaded with Windows 7 already.

    Your computer technician has no knowledge, do a factory restore will not damage the computer, its a feature of most modern computers.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 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.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

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

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

    ------------------------

    Once you remove it, you can use the product key to upgrade the new computer.

    If the license for Windows 7 Professional, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade to Windows 7 Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Professional on demand, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional your files, programs and settings retained.

  • I had to reinstall Windows Xp Pro, the product key will not work.

    I have not changed any hardware or anything like that. I downloaded the updates of msupdates and my computer went the fritz would not do anything. I reinstalled windows xp pro from the restore disc that came with my computer. The product key is not accepted by windows to activate it. I need to know what to do. It's a Dell optiplex 2.8 gig Board and proc 2 gig of ram. Anyway when I bought.

    Hi, I am assuming that you are unable to activate your XP via internet, you can try the phone holder to turn on.

    You will be asked of the remote computer to give the support page for phone numbers.

    You will then receive a new set of numbers to activate your XP.

    If this does not work, you will be directed to a Microsoft employee. Explain your problem and if they are happy with your answer will give you an activation key.

    You can not, for at least one (and two possible) reasons.

    1. it isn't clean if you want to have two computers, or you
    you want to remove from the old computer and put it on the new. If
    you want once, you can't do that - the rule is very clear: there
    a copy (or a license) for each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

    2. but even if you want it on a single and from uninstall
    the old computer, you can't do it. It is because if it came with the
    computer, it is an OEM version and the biggest drawback to he a
    OEM version, is that its license it permanently binds to the first
    It is installed on the computer. He can never legally be moved to another
    computer, sold or assigned (except with the original computer).
