I have a HP Elitebook 2540p with a broken screen. He was sitting near a whileand now I decided to use and I want to insatll WIndows 10. I have a USB I'm start since then, but half of the screen is broken so I don't see what I'm doing. How can I define an external display as the primary display?

Sorry, but you're out of luck on this.

Struggling to display on laptops are not designed to treat the external screens as main display.

Pilots to use these jacks don't you loads up to that in windows, loading, this is why you don't see boot messages on an external monitor connected to a laptop.

    I'm sorry that you are unhappy.  Many of us have at least one computer for which there is no drivers Windows 10.

    @WAWood explanation essential, sad.

    The documents include the following...

    Comment

    Depending on your situation, i.e. the model and Setup on your specific computer, the system can work properly on Windows 10 using the drivers and software available through updates of Windows 10.

    Now that your computer was successfully migrated to Windows 10 - If you want - use the 'Back' of the migration feature to restore your computer to its previous version of Windows.

    Upgrade to Windows 10: FAQ

    See: can I go back to my old operating system?

    The 'Back' feature is sensitive to time (one month); You can decide to turn back now, and then reinstall Windows 10 (on this same system) at a later date.

  • ELITEBOOK 2540p: WINDOWS XP WE ELITEBOOK 2540p?

    Hello

    Claudio my name is and I am looking for someone who could help me how do to install Windows Xp on my Elitebook 2540p because that whenever I try to make my pc starts to load my DVD but after a few minutes, it appears a blue screen that said installation is arrested.

    I want to install Xp on my pc and after trying to install Windows 7 as second operating system.

    Y does it can someone help me figure out how to do? And what is this blue screen that appears?

    Goodbye & thanks, Claudio

    You could not even install XP in IDE mode?  Wow.  One can almost always install XP with the speed setting in the BIOS IDE value.

    If you can get your hands on a USB floppy drive, I compressed upwards and tied the SATA AHCI drivers, you need to put on a floppy disk and you choose exactly one you need by pressing the F6 key when prompted.

    Proceed as follows with the BIOS set to AHCI mode.

    The problem is... I don't know the driver that you select in the list.

    It is certainly one of those three, so try all of them - and I think it's one of the first two.

    Intel (r) 5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller
    Intel (r) 5 Series 6 Port SATA AHCI Controller
    Intel (r) 5 Series/3400 Series SATA AHCI Controller

    In any case, download, unzip and copy the files that I have attached without all the files on a floppy drive.

    When you get to the part where XP asks if you need to install a sata raid driver, press F6 and finally the installation will continue.

    At some point, it stops and you follow the instructions to load your diskette sata driver.

    You must use the up/down arrow keys to scroll to and select the correct driver - either upwards or downwards arrow because the driver you need is perhaps not immediately visible on the screen.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the HP Support forum. Welcome!

    Officially, your computer does not support Windows 10 because it is an old model. Supported are only Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7.

    > > http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=4138317

    Windows 10 was created not even when Windows 10 has arrived.

    Although not officially supported, if you plan to install and test with Win 10, you can view the ID of the material missing material and someone might be able to find some for you (but no guarantee). Instructions > > http://www.wikihow.com/Find-Hardware-ID

    Personally, I would recommend that you take advantage of this computer with Windows 7. You have a wonderful notebook with excellent hardware configuration and nice operating system that will be supported by 2020. Something that usually works fixing it breaks

  • LY580 - installation of windows 8 on SSD

    I would like to install windows 8 on my SSD instead of upgrading my copy of windows at the standard C disk. However, during the installation of windows 8, I says that it cannot install on this disk because it has a MBR partition table and EFI systems require GPT disks. When I try to change that in disk management, I note that the SSD is not configured as a full disc, but is rather a volume of disk 0 with the HARD drive. How would I change this so that I can install windows 8 on this drive?

    Thanks for any help

    I had the same problem. Guess that's the problem with the config RapidDrive. PC with RapidDrive are not upgrading to Windows 8.

    I suggest:

    Quick tool allows to separate your HARD and SSD drive

    Pure install Windows 8 on SSD

    Go to the link below and read the last post on the page by BinaryInk

    These instructions will help you activate Windows 8, even if you only have an upgrade key. (That worked for me)

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_8-windows_install/Windows-8-Pro-upgrade-Pro...

    and use the SSD and HDD separately for now.

    Finally wait for Lenovo release RapiDrive for windows 8 as promised.

  • Why when I run the installer for Windows 8 consumer preview on my computer of Windows XP Home Edition he says: "this platform is not supported"?

    Setup of Windows 8 consumer priview

    Why when I run the installer for Windows 8 consumer preview on my computer of Windows XP Home Edition he says: "this platform is not supported"?

    You can see this message if you downloaded Windows 8 64-bit and XP 32-bit. To start the installation of Windows 8, you will need to restart and boot from the installation of Windows 8 media.

    If you want to keep your current installation of Windows, you can install it on a separate partition and dual boot with the Windows 8 Preview of consumer. To install on a separate partition and dual boot, you must create and boot from the installation media.

    (1) first you will need a free partition on hard drive - if you do not you can shrink a partition and create a new one to install Windows 8 Preview of consumer on.
    To reduce a partition and add a new one that you can use EASEUS Partition Master (free):
    http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm
     
     
    (2) to install on a separate disk, you can perform an installation DVD or USB key, then boot from it so you can choose the other partition. To download the ISO file and install media:
    Download Windows 8 consumer Preview ISO:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/ISO
    After you download the ISO file - use the Windows USB/DVD Download tool to install media:
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
     
     
    (3) installation on a separate partition for dual boot:
    1 make a DVD or USB installation drive - to see the two options above.
    2. start from the DVD or USB install drive and click on install when prompted.
    3. during the installation process, when asked - choose a custom installation.
    4. Select a free partition on the hard disk to install Windows 8 Preview of consumer - this will install Windows 8 on a separate instead of your current Windows partition partition.
    5 continue with the installation.
       
     
     
    First of all please note:
    1 consumer preview Windows 8 is a pre-release and will only work for a limited time - when it expires, you need to remove it.
    2. the overview of consumption is stable and has been tested, but it s not the finished product. Your PC may crash and you may lose important files. You should backup your data and you shouldn't test Windows 8 Preview of consumers on your primary home or business PC.
    3. If you install the preview of consumption on the Windows partition is currently installed, you cannot uninstall the preview of consumption. To return to your previous version of Windows, you will need to reinstall from the recovery or installation media supplied with your PC.
    4. in addition to dual boot, here are a few methods to install Windows 8 Preview of consumers without affecting your current installation of Windows:
    (A) remove your current hard drive and install the Preview of consumers on a spare drive.
    (B) install it on a spare computer.
    (C) install the Preview of consumer in a virtual machine.
