HP ENVY 6-1030ec: Win7 clean instalation

Hello.

I have HP ENVY 6-1030ec with a 500GB HDD and SSD standard as an additional cache 32 GB. I wanted to clean install Win 7 on it, but was unable to do so.

First of all, I couldn't readers to the place where I have to choose on what Windows installation disc. I then completely formatted the disk HARD 500 GB, and stupidly enough even the recovery partitions. It did not help.

I did some google search and found http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-System-and-Recovery/Clean-install-Win-7-hybrid-hdd/t.... I downloaded the drivers, but it didn't work. First of all, it depends in what USB slot is my bootable USB key. A location, I don't see another USB with the drivers on this subject. If I pass the USBs and start installing, it ignores the part where I can choose the drive to install Win 7 in and goes straight to the part where I should load the drivers. In this case, I am able to see the other USB key, find some drivers on it, but having tried to install those, he's said something on this subject there are no new features.

Then I tried to install Win 7 on the hard disk on another computer. It worked fine and I used Sysprep - EHC and hope that this will solve the problem. I did and it has not solved the problem. After a few questions, I am in the State Win 7 install, reboots and before the part where I chose the username, etc. I get the error "installing Windows could not configure Windows on hardware on this computer." I googled a https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2466753 solution, but it did not work. First, I tried the drivers (again), and then I turned off RAID. Now, when installing Win 7, I see not only on the HARD drive, but also on the SSD. However, I still get the same error.

I googled some more and found http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/61328-63-widows-setup-configure-windows-computer-hardware. I tried the msoobe part a, but when I run it, it says the program is not compatible with the current version of Windows and that I should check for x 64 or x 86 system.

I also tried to install Win on another HARD drive. This time I still, even had to choose the user name in Windows, set time zone, put in the product key, but then I get the error "failed to initialize the connection process. Interactive Logon Process initialization has failed. Please see the the event log for more details". I tried Googling, but is a few tips for when this occurs after Windows worked normally.

I did Setup Win 7 as many times, but it never occurred to me. I'm really confused right now and you'd be grateful for any help.

Best

Hello.

Thanks for the reply.

I tried the tests at some point earlier, all passed without problem. The other link you suggest the links just to this question.

Anyway, I solved it by installing Windows 10 directly.

  • HP Envy TS m7 Ntbk E0K99UA #ABL: HP Envy laptop Windows 10, clean install and reinstall applications preinstalled

    Hello

    8.1 Windows, I've just updated my HP Envy laptop to Windows 10. I now have a Windows 10 product key (that I found using the Microsoft tool productkey. The update went well. All the drivers have worked. The question isn't here.

    I have to do a clean reinstall of the laptop. Too much shit...

    I know how Windows 10, but I don't know how I'll be able to reinstall the app pre-loaded, he came with the laptop.

    Firstly, Windows 10 kind of RecoveryMgr blocked... I just can't access more...

    If I boot with the drive D or the backup media, I created, I'm only given the opportunity to reinstall completely (but, of course, for Windows 8).

    Two questions:

    1. from the D drive or my backup media, is there a way to separately select application to install? (Everything seems compressed and it allows me to start the installation of each software program.

    2-if I reinstall Windows 8 using backup media, I created (or d reader app), I'll have my own installation... but I'll be able to re-update to Windows 10? (remember, I now have a product key...).

    Thank you.

    Sébastien

    Your best option would be to use the recovery media to reinstall the original OS. Since you have an activation key of license for the original operating system meets the requirement to update Windows 10.

    Once you have done this, you can use the key to creation of Windows Media to create a bootable installation flash drive or to proceed directly to Windows 10.

    Windows 10 installation as an upgrade has the advantage of you to have the applications installed at the origin of the original OS present and ready to use in your new installation of Windows 10.

    Otherwise with a clean install of Windows 10, the HP Recovery Manager wil do not exist, or you can install it separately.

  • Re: Windows activation key and Win7 clean install

    Hello

    me again :-)

    So, I'll install the new ssd in my Tecra R840!

    Since I want not to clone my real SSD hdd but, instead, do a new window 7 Professional 64-bit installed, how can I achieve this without any DVD (my previous Toshibas...
    . I had 2 front, first one dating back to 1997 had CD/DVD with the OS!).

    So, I have the activation key in the label on the back of my Tecra but I don't have the media with OS!

    Please help solve this problem :-)

    Kind regards
    Paulo

    If you want to install the original recovery image, you must create restore DVD first. This recovery disk, you can use for installing the OS.
    In the user s manuals document clearly described how you can do so before you swap HDD create recovery disc in first.

    Product key to the label part of the preinstalled version.

  • Keep HP with Vista 64 bit programs to clean install Win7

    My HP pavilion m9400t was bought a year ago and failed to qualify not free upgrade.  In any case, I think I will try to Win 7.  I'm gathering that I need to do a clean install.  How to save all the extra HP provided software installed with Vista (Hardware diagnosis Tools, HP Advisor, HP Support info, Lightscribe, Cyberlink DVD suite, etc.).  I use these programs regularly and want to be able to install on Windows 7.  How to save each of them?

    If this is the case, and I lose all the extra software HP... is there a way to record programs on a DVD and the re - install after a clean installed Win7?

    Where can I find these files?

    OR conversly, if I make a superposition of Win7 on vista installation, be fine or will it be buggy?

  • Not able to install the HP software after a clean install of win7, hpbi and harddisk.dll error

    Hello

    I bought a tm2 with win7 home x 64, my IT guy at the office have installed win7 ultimate x 64 and of course all the HP software was missing when I returned. Fortunately, they recorded the old files and I was able to locate the SwSetup folder and managed to install essential drivers.

    However, I miss all the HP software, which means that I can no longer find it not in the SwSetup folder or it will not be installed. I found the HP Touch Smart 'something' Center (folderHPTSLC) but I get the error "hp\bin\hpbi" and I found the Recovery Manager win7 HP homepage, but I get the error "hardDisk.dll.

    I am really a bit upset that I have to spend so much time to solve a simple problem, I have an intact recovery partition, a partition HP tools intact as well as all the files in the SwSetup folder, how can it be difficult?

    I want the software I paid and so far, I spent several hours looking for a solution to a seemingly simple problem (just provide the software on your hp, or at least one that reinstalls the Sw from the hard drive to the HP computer if you fear that your software may be used on other HP computers...).

    Can someone please provide me with is the solution to the problems mentioned above, a link to the HP Touch Center application work (although I have the files, he just moved there) or tell me how I can restart the installation of the HP software and driver that happens just after you have configured your win7?

    Thank you

    Geen

    I agree, our IT screwed up guy, they didn't even know the upgrade thing... :-/

    In any case, I found a way to install the software I was looking for, just unzip to a folder and run the .msi file in the src folder.

    Even if not all the applications had such a record, most of 'em had.

    After playing with the sw a bit, I realized that I didn't like it anyway, boy I'm glad, I wasn't going to come home!

    and btw, we bought a HP Mini and it was a nice little software, called AppInstl in his swsetup, actually just the sw file I was looking for. Of course the same thing happened with the Mini ('clean' installation), but with this app, that I managed to re - install all the sw I wanted without any problem, except QuickWeb, of course, but that seems to be a general problem.

    Seems to me that HP has also seen the need for a "easy install your software after clean install" app.  :-)

    Thanks for all your comments, my problem was solved!

  • HP Envy 17: Clean install Windows 10 without upgrade.

    Hello

    First of all, I am very happy with my new HP laptop first, it's amazing!

    Now my problem. The laptop came with 8.1 Windows preinstalled with a free upgrade to Windows 10, however, I want to do a clean install Windows 10 without going through the process of upgrading (or would defy a 'clean' install), without additional software (I have already downloaded all the drivers and software from HP Web site) and I wanted to make the installation of the driver/software myself.

    Now, I had the key OEM with software, however...

    I read several threads related to this problem, the recommended steps were required to use the creator of media, but that won't install it Windows 8.1? I know that I coud after upgrade, but I wanted to avoid this step

    In any case to create support for Windows 10? If I clean install 10 Windows with a retail key, I'll lose the built in recovery?

    Thank you very much for your kind attention,

    Best regards

    Francisco

    To answer your questions:

    (1) MS media creation tool: Activation in Windows 10 - Windows help offers several options: to upgrade this PC now, create installation media (download the ISO file), create an installation (DVD or USB) media.  Choose the option that suits you - understand that upgrading PC, this option does NOT create an ISO file or installation media.

    (2) lose the built-in recovery.  IF you ask on the resumption of Win8x HP - then Yes.  That no longer works after upgrade Win10.

    (3) retail vs upgrade and recovery: Version does not matter, you will lose HP Win8x recovery without worrying.

    (4) retail key - you get ONLY a touch of detail if you buy a copy at Win10 retail.  The version proposed for the free update does not product keys for activation.  You MUST install a version upgrade on top of an existing installation of Win7/8/8.1 so that it will activate.  If you install directly from media Win10 Upgrade, starting from the media and did an install clean, not only will win 10 then NOT activate, right now, it will NEVER activate.  MS talking about providing an option IN THE FUTURE, to allow people to enter a Win7/8/8.1 existing product key - but this feature is not present today.

  • HP Envy 15 Windows 7 Professional clean install Driver questions

    This morning, I did a clean install of Windows 7 on my brand new envy 15 (LW897AV), which includes the deletion of backup partition as the partition driver HP.

    Unfortunately, many drivers not installed, and I can't find a way to find them. This includes Beats audio driver (I have the audio control panel, but it is not connected to the button on the side volume control) as well as the microphone and some drivers that appear in the devices Panel but the diagnosis is not able to find.

    Is there a way to fix this now, or should I cave and pay the $20 and get a recovery CD?

    I recently bought a HP Envy X 360 laptop for work. The laptop comes with Windows preinstalled 10.

    I'm doing a clean install of Windows 7 and during the installation, I get an error message "A required CD/DVD drive driver is missing. If you have a drive floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.

    -you know what image to update because the install.wim file contains all the images (except Enterprise).  If installing 64-bit Home Premium - that would be index 2

    -dism/mount-WIM /wimfile:c:\temp\dvd_files\sources\install.wim / index: 2 /mountdir:C:\temp\mount

    Copy your files to USB and everything should be good.

    I forgot something.  The boot.wim file has two images.  So after step 2, you must do exactly the same thing again but on index 2 like this:

    mount the boot.wim file

  • Failure of KB974431 update with 8007000D on a clean install of Win7 Pro 64-bit

    Hi all

    I just finished a clean install of Win7 pro 64 bit and everything looks on with the activated product key.  I'm applying 50 some important updated via update, but I have one that fails each time, KB974431.

    According to this thread: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/thread/27737d55-9c10-44b5-b701-6ba147c78364, another person having this problem had luck manually download and install the update.  But it did not work for me (I created a new thread because his son was in the installation forum).

    KB94431 was also causing problems for people who concoct a C004F050 error as in this thread:http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/thread/ff57f326-0f1d-412c-a4d0-14de1eaf0836/ although I didn't have this error, I tried running sfc/SCANNOW and he did report that he "finds corrupted files but could not solve some of them."  I don't really know what I should look for in the CBS.  By suggestion of the thread, I installed 64-bit Windows Update Agent and Windows Update is represented nothing doesn't.

    I think I have a corrupted file update is already downloaded that Windows is trying to use each time and it fails.   They seem to live in files Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and Windows\Servicing\Packages.  Although I can change the permissions to delete the file in Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download (and I've tried it without change of failure), access is denied whenever I try to touch the Windows\Servicing\Packages or its content.

    The only installed software were the latest EVGA nforce and drivers for video card, Norton Security Suite and the SoundBlaster last for my sound card driver.

    Any suggestions?

  • Disk DVD - RW does not work after a clean install of Win7

    I did a clean install of Win7 on my Acer Asprire 5738 yesterday, and I noticed this particular problem today, I needed to use the DVD player, which is a Slimtype DVD A DS8A3S ATA device.

    The problem so far, is that it is a law to disappear each time the hard drive turns down, so, for example, I put a game disc, for the installation, the drive appears in my computer folder, the drive will turn up, and start the installation until it, lets say, I need to insert a license key... the disc will spin down and slowed down and then will disappear from the system.

    I checked the properties on the material tab and it shows 2 devices, one is the device which is installed, that is, Slimtype DVD A DS8A3S ATA

    Manufacturer: CD-ROM Standard

    Location: Location 0 (channel 1, Target 0, Lun 0)

    Device status: unknown

    under this scheme, the other is listed as a WDC WD2500BEVT - 22zCT0 ATA as a type of hard drive

    Manufacturer: (standard disk drives)

    Location 0 (Channel 0, Target 0, Lun 0)

    Status of the device: this device is working properly

    I don't know what is the 2nd unit, that I have only one hard disk, and also, I do not know why the transition from vista home to a full HARD disk format and then install win7 would cause such a problem...

    any help would be greatly apreciated

  • Can I use a Win7 upgrade version to do a clean install?

    Hello world

    I have Vista 64 bit on a desktop computer and want to upgrade to Win7 64-bit, the arrival of my version of the software upgrade.  It seems that the experts agree most do a clean install is the way to go.  My question is, if I backup my computer and reformat, I'll be able to install the new operating system on the Win7 upgrade disk or if it will not have recognized that Vista was still there and not install?  In this case, do I need to buy a full version of Win7 instead... even if I replace a Vista license with the clean install?

    Any idea would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    Yes, you can perform a clean installation with the Windows 7 upgrade version. Just start on the Windows Vista desktop, insert the Windows 7 DVD click "install now". When the menu appears, select custom (advanced option) to a clean install procedure.

    The system uses something of a RAID configuration, because it doesn't have an Intel RST and a Smart Connect pilot.

    The problem is that I don't have access to a copy non - OEM Windows 8 to test the manual installation of the driver Intel RST or Smart Connect method.

    What is a stock Enterprise of Windows 8 version or a custom image for the company?  If it is a stock Enterprise installation, then the Windows Anytime Upgrade would be an option provided the OEM copy is always available and you know what is the product key.

    However, you can try to extract the contents of the package driver to a USB flash drive and try to manually install one of the drivers (RST or Smart Connect) to see if it makes the configuration of disk HARD visible during the installation process.

    3. right click on each one and choose 7-zip > Archive open.

    4. extract the contents of each driver on an external USB drive.

    5. When you arrive at the selection of blank disc screen during installation of Windows 8, select the option to load drivers.

    6. go to the file Intel RST pilot which was extracted, select drivers and appropriate architecture (x 86 for 32-bit, x 64 for 64-bit).

    7. This can be a process of elimination.  Try each driver (in RST and Smart Connect) until you find one that works.

    8. when the appropriate driver has been installed, then the HARD drive should be visible.

  • HP envy 14-2090eo: in what order should drivers installed better when you do the clean install

    Hi HP experts...

    I want to do a clean install of my Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, and I've always used my recovery disks when it was necessary to format and subsequently updated all the drivers in the support section and drivers HP, but it is a slow process, and I'm not even in what order I should update drivers when it that way or the other , and often a message jumped ud saying ' the driver is not properly installed - try again or the driver is installed correctly. But as mentioned, I want to do a clean install with my Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit disk and would like some experts advise on order in which drivers must be installed. Can anyone help?

    Best regards hpenvy1

    Hello:

    The order generally recognized installation of the driver is:

    1 install the chipset driver and restart.

    2. install the graphics driver and restart.

    3. install the audio driver and restarted.

    4 install the ethernet driver.

    5. install the wireless driver.

    Then you can install a driver you want.

    I also do a practice to update to the latest service pack before installing the drivers, if any.
