    Disc XP Home and XP Pro drive on the same computer

    I have a HP computer that came loaded with XP Home.  I have to use my hard drive XP Pro for things work related.  The work computer was a lease and discounts.  I tried putting the Pro drive in an envelope and use as external, but some files are not able to access.  Also tried to remove the XP Home computer disc and put the XP Pro drive in its place, but the system unbootable.  Can I leave the House in 'master' player and put the Pro drive as a "slave", or they will be incompatible?

    Thank you!!

    You can add the disk with Xp Pro as a slave. You may need to change the jumper settings. However, you cannot take a drive with an operating system that has been installed on another computer and start to the new computer. In 15 years of computer technology I couldn't do it only once and it was with a Vista operating system. However, Windows is designed to not allow that.

    The most likely reason that you are denied access to the files on the disk with Pro is that you will need to take ownership of the files.

  • Reinstall Windows 7 on a different drive on the same computer - related issue of the license

    A license Windows 7 partners question

    Can I reinstall Windows 7 on a drive different than where I did the initial installation? I have to cancel registration of the software because the initial installation? If so, how this is done? I have to follow a special procedure for the installation of system 7 on the hot spare?

    The reason for my situation

    I decided to upgrade the operating system of my laptop Toshiba Windows XP to Windows 7. As it was my first time, I decided to buy a HDD replacement so that I'd be able to do a clean install of Windows 7 without compromising my data and programs on the old disk. That went well, but the data and previously installed programs that I had used for the years remained in the hard disk which has been deleted.

    Now, I would replace the new hard drive (on which I have installed Windows 7) with the original hard disk (which contains Wndows XP and all my data, all my programs). With that done, I would like to perform an installation upgrade of Windows 7 (on Windows XP). In order to make a second installation on another hard drive (but the same work) what I should do to meet the legal installation MS for Windows 7?

    Please let me know.

    Thank you

    In addition, there is no installation upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows XP.

    Yes, thank you. I missed that he had 'upgrade '.

    You must perform a new installation and reinstall your programs.

    It's the best thing to do, but the 'must' is too strong a Word. Allow me to
    mention the alternative (although I do not recommend to do so): make a
    two-step upgrade - first upgrade XP to Vista, and Vista upgrade for
    Windows 7.

    I do not recommend because it doubles the risk of problems. But one
    while back I've tasted, to check that it worked, and I got lucky
    enough to have any resulting problems.

  • How can I transfer files from a hard drive on a second hard drive on the same computer

    My 150 G hard drive is full - I installed a second drive hard 150 G and need to download my original hard drive

    My 150 G hard drive is full - I installed a second drive hard 150 G and need to download my original hard drive

    First of all, note that "Download" isn't really an appropriate word.

    Moving files from one disk to the other does not differ from moving from one folder to another folder on the same drive. There are several ways to do so. The two most common are:

    1. copy / paste

    2. open the source and destination in two instances of Windows Explorer (or my computer) and drag and drop from one to the other.

  • How to make a portable USB drive use the same drive letter all the time

    Original title:

    I have many removable hard drives from Toshiba.  Use them for photography.  I usually connect simply, transfer photos from the DSLR camera (images raw, very big, not a camera point/rod).  When I plug in, computer automatically selects a player... F, g, H: by M or N.

    Then, I use Adobe Lightroom for adjustments.  Once they are imported into Lightroom it keeps track of this record, they were on.

    PROBLEM:

    If I unplug the removable hard drive, plug in at a later date, computer can randomly choose a different example M instead of H letter.
    LightRoom is so impossible to find photos/images.  I would then have to re - import and start any setting completely from the beginning.

    Question:
    How to direct the computer to select the same drive when I plug in a removable hard drive.

    Plug in a hard drive removable, computer selects H:, can I import into LightRoom, I disconnect the removable hard drive, a week later I want to make adjustments more photography, connect the removable hard drive and FORCE/DIRECT COMPUTER TO SELECT H: AGAIN (or whatever of the original letter was).

    Hope it makes sense.

    You can't, it would be considered separate licenses and cause problems of product activation.

  • In vista ultimate to transfer files between disks on the same computer.

    In vista ultimate, I can only transfer files computer-to-computer.  I have 2 hard drives and that you do not have another computer.  I already tried Windows Easy Transfer without success.  Please advise on how to transfer files between hard disks on the same computer

    I suggest you follow the procedure below and check if it works.

    1. Double-click the "My computer" icon on the desktop to open a new window to the Solution Explorer.
    2. Double-click the drive that contains the data you want to transfer.
    3. Find and select the files and folders you want to transfer. Select multiple items by pressing the 'Ctrl' key while clicking on the items.
    4. Click on the button "Edit" in the menu bar.
    5. If you want to make a copy of the data on the other hard drive, click on "copy". Click "Cut" If you want to move the data to the other hard drive.
    6. Double-click the "My Computer" on the desktop icon to open a new window to the Solution Explorer.
    7. Double-click the hard drive to which you want to transfer the data.
    8. Navigate to the folder where you want to place the data.

  • Move all other organisers to another drive on the same computor

    I would move all the photos in my Organizer to another drive on the same computer to free up space and have all future uploaded images go directly on the same drive.  In other words is it possible to have the program on the operating system drive and photos in the Organizer on a different drive on the same computer.

    Yes.

    The new drive can be another internal drive or external.

    Two ways:

    1. move the files by 'drag and drop' in the left panel of "folders". You can move folders (with their subfolders) to another location (another drive or main folder). That works just like drag and drop in Solution Explorer / finder with the difference that the catalogues guard trace the location of the files. that doesn't create files "disconnected".

    Tips: you can do so for only a part of the your folder tree or the entire folders tree. Takes it to process on the same time as the drag and drop in Solution Explorer / finder. No dialog box to indicate that the process is running, be patient! For a big move, I would do a full backup before.

    2 - the backup and restore process recommended (move Adobe elements Organizer catalog by using the backup and restore |) Photoshop and first Elements 6 or later version) also works at your needs. While it is specifically intended to move to another computer, it works the same for a move to another drive.

    I could mention a third way: move the folders from the Explorer / Finder, then immediately run the function 'reconnect', but it is usually much easier and safer to use one of the solutions above.

    If your goal is to move all your media files from several readers to a single, backup / restore is the solution. The restoration will put the result on a single master folder with a master subfolder for each former player.

    Hello

    Is it possible that I can export my photos from my lightroom cameras sd card and an external hard drive at the same time so I have pictures original/master in both places

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Robert!

    Looks like you want to make a backup during import. If this is the case, you can designate a different location for a second copy when importing.

    1. Check the mark a second copy of box in the management of the files Panel and choose your external drive in the menu drop-down
    2. Then you set regular destination of Lightroom in the Destination panel.

    However, if you mean that you want in the foreground images in Lightroom, but have them physically located on an external drive, then all you need to do is choose this drive in the Destination panel. Lightroom Catalog can be on a different drive.

    I find it useful, however, to use the automatic backup in file management Panel in case.

    Not at all.

    If you have Windows 7 with an OEM license agreement (it came pre-installed on the computer is the most likely scenario for this, but you can buy OEM copies so) or you have a license to retail (upgrade or full version) - the way your question is worded is very specific - you * can * install Windows 7 costs/clean on this same system as much as you wish.  A new hard drive won't stop you activation - well that at some point, you need to activate by phone, as opposed to over the Internet.

    Now - if the motherboard is replaced and it's licensed OEM and replacement was not that of the OEM that probably set up your computer...  Then you have a problem.

    Unless you happen to have a license of Windows 7 retail sales, so it is not related to the computer (motherboard).
