I have not any OSI installer or windows. Thanks in advance!

Kind regards

If you mean that the section of the drivers and software HP website www.hp.com , then Yes

Another possibility - if there is no recovery to HP support, you can try to contact

http://www.best2serve.com/page/rcd_landing   OR http://www.computersurgeons.com/

Once you receive the recovery media, you must start the computer from the recovery media and follow the on-screen instructions. Here are the instructions how to recover:

  • HOW YOU REPALCE THE WINDOWS operating system (Vista) YOU LOST IN THE REMOVAL of a VIRUS?

    Hello

    XP is not an upgrade, and you can buy XP or Windows 7.

    XP is no longer marketed by Microsoft or main computer for many years manufacturers.

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/84488-activate-Vista-phone.html

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

    Why? It is almost never necessary. A good anti-virus program can almost
    always remove the infection. And often leads to problems with formatting
    as you have discovered. Even if you have no problems, it creates a lot
    work for you.

    so my original os is also lost in formatting.now im using, with windows 8 form, a service on the local computer, it is possible to recover my system to the scene when I bought it.

    If you have or can get a DVD installation or a recovery partition,
    Yes. Otherwise, no.

    You mean that you can not BOOT from the CD and start the installation above?

    Do and start with a Darik Boot and Nuke CD, wipe off the NEW drive (make sure that it is the only one in there and you want NOTHING on it) and after you have wiped it off, start your process (boot CD, etc.).

    (b) go to the Advanced tab

    (c) click on settings under startup & recovery

    (d) change the seconds to display the operating system to 0

  • How to reinstall the Windows 7 upgrade on vista for new installation or in the event of system failure?

    I love periodically re - install a new operating system after reformatting hadr drive. In the past it was the of syetem of full operation and not just an upgrade. I have to be sure that it is not complicated, as I want to install the upgrade to Windows 7 (family pack) on 3 PC/laptops running Vista. I would upgrade as detailed instructions on how I would do a new installation using the Windows 7. This is important because I don't want to create a nightmarish experience of backup, install the original operating system, install the upgrade, etc. etc. etc.

    If you upgrade a computer Vista Win7 and need or want to do a clean install (or repair install) of Windows, you will need to reinstall Vista and then switch to Win7 again.

    Your question has nothing to do with Windows Update.

  • How to keep the controls panel/glance through the changes of fonts more small-medium-large screen made through a window to customize the Windows operating system?

    Hello

    My application uses digital edition, ring and other controls with chains of control/label mainly composed of EditDialogMetaFont size = 11 (all optimized for the smallest font setting in a customization of the Win operating system window). When the user changes the font to the medium setting for example the police of all labels and controls is changed size = table 13 and all labels are misaligned with some labels even extending lines of Panel and thus become partially visible. How to deal with this situation, please?

    Thank you

    Martin M.

    The description of the metafonts sheds some light on this issue; It basically says that for a police metafont predefined size is not an absolute value and can change... The solution uses the fonts provided by the operating system, for example, Arial.

  • How to transfer the old operating system to Windows XP on a drive USB3 to allow the start of a new XP computer

    I have Windows XP SP3 on a Dell computer. I have a new computer with Windows 7 Pro.

    I want the option to be able to start my new computer with XP and run it as an alternative to USB.

    Is there a way I can completely transfer the contents of the drive WITH the XP OPERATING SYSTEM on a regular external USB3 drive so I can start the new computer using XP works like the operating system, when I need?

    Thank you.

    You do not have.  Windows XP doesn't work this way (start of the external drive).

    You can virtualize the old computer (physical to virtual conversion) and run it as a virtual machine on your new system.  Although, honestly, it would be a bit beyond the type of assistance usually given in these home user forums.  A Google search would be ways to virtualize a physical system and/or choose which Manager of virtualization that you want to use (Microsoft VirtualPC, VirtualBox, VMware Player/workstation, etc...)
