HP Envy 23: How can I install Windows 7 Pro Windows 8.1 pre-installed slim like 23?
Hello... I HATE 8.1... but I saw your list of wonderful driver for your laptop and I was wondering if it is similar to a HP desktop computer when removing windows 8.1. I already asked HP for help, but they, unfortunately, are "unable" to tell me that I can even load Windows 7 23 want. People very nice, but very limited information.
I managed to find 2 new copies of Windows 7 Pro, more a have on hand software... obviously, until Windows has the world dislikes phone applications on a computer, we need backup copies!
My brand new mess is a HP Envy 23 I just bought last Sunday and hates carefully.
I got the USB backup, just in case, but to wipe the drive (if I can) and change the boot order (if I have will be tolerated), and of course, eliminating all additional platforms I could find if this is possible)... What do I need to save the facility from 8.1 to make bits andpieces and love its color and whatever work?
And what on Earth is UEFI?
Thanks in advance... I know that this forum is a labor of love.
Six days in a 30 days return... Help!
Knowing the complete model of the computer help, HP Envy 23-xxxxxx
Try to downgrade your system would probably void your warranty and a challenge trying to find drivers that would work with Windows 7, a real headache.
If you want to go this route, you need to disable secure boot and enable legacy in order to change the boot order.
It may be easier to keep what you have and make it Windows 8 look like Windows 7

How can I make Windows 7 Explorer look and work like it does in XP?
Hello...
The GUI in the Win7 Explorer is a waste of screen real estate when it comes to want to work with files.
I don't want the icons or all divisions of the way in which it uses by default, and I don't want to have only a small space to expand the + for each folder tree. I would like to have the Explorer Win 7 have the same look and feel as in windows XP. Call 'classic' view of windows Explorer.
How can I do this? I tried but could not get that look in Win7.
If this is not possible, then what was the reason for the deletion of this presentation? What Microsoft problem trying to resolve to change this?
Thank you for your help.
See you soon!

How can I get Windows 7 to recognize my NAS drive as a file server?
I just bought a new desktop computer with Windows 7 (the first time I used it at home). I have three drives NAS; one of them is an of Maxtor Central axis. I use the Central axis as a file server, it has Word, Excel and other Office files in addition to my music library and a handful of videos. Whenever I try to open a document, say Word, Windows 7 does not show the Maxtor under my network. It shows one of the other drives NAS (Iomega). When I right click on the network, click "Open in a new window", I see the Maxtor drive. However when I click on it, Windows will open Windows Media Player. I see only three songs, which aren't even mine; I think they were samples placed on the disk by an application.
Other machines on my network (a computer laptop PC and Mac) continue to be able to see the of Maxtor Central axis.
I can open my documents giving the fully qualified network path "\\Mca-054e16\Public", but it's a pain. I can't map a drive letter for the drive; I just get the small circle who constantly.
How can I get Windows 7 see Maxtor Central Axis like a file server and not only a media server?
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone may be able to provide,
Nolan
Hello
· How do you set up the network?
· Have you used a Maxtor software?
The Seagate knowledge base indicates that his NASwas released before the release of Windows 7. Therefore, it has not been tested in this environment and is not supported by Technical Support. http://Seagate.custkb.com/Seagate/CRM/selfservice/search.jsp?docid=211931&NewLang=en&HiLite=Maxtor+central+axis+Windows7#note

I have a guest spot for use to third parties, on my computor. How can I install programs like 'Word' and e-mail on the page 'comments '.
There are many limitations on the guest account, this is why you cannot see Word or are unable to open it.
Instead of using the guest account, create a new standard user account, it should provide access to most of the programs, but is still limited.

Hello
I have a mini computer "Toshiba nb200-10z" and is no more startup.
I would like to make a recovery, but it does not work.I know there's a shortcut like press 0 when the laptop starts.
With this shortcut, you can start the recovery in order to reset the software.
But when I press the 0 button it gives me an error.So I think that the recovery disk/partition is lost.
