HP touch smart 15 t upgraded to 750 GB 240 GB ssd hard drive

could you help me with this dilemma

I have HP envy 15 TS or 15 t,.
The specifications are:
8.1 Windows 64
• 4th generation Intel Core i7-4702MQ CPU
• Dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GT 750 M with 4096 MB of video memory
• diagonal 15.6-inch Full HD BrightView (1920 x 1080) LED backlit
• 6 GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
• 750 GB 5400 RPM hard drive
• NO WSSD acceleration Cache on the hard drive.

I want to upgrade the hard drive to the 240 GB SSD. I have not yet activated the my Windows OS on my HP laptop that I just got (I don't know if it's a good thing)
Is there a way I can clean install OS 8.1 Windows on the hard drive of my laptop to my new SSD?
Thank you

I'm afraid you're right. I'm looking around the ' net for a .iso for Windows 8.1 OEM. Makes me too well.

"Unfortunately there is no current solution to download an image file .iso Windows 8.1 for a preinstalled (OEM) version of Windows 8.0 or 8.1"

    Hi KevinRy,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    Unplug all external devices.

    Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

    Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

    1.

    Right-click my computerand then click Properties.

    2.

    Click the Advanced tab.

    3.

    Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.

    4.

    Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.

    5.

    Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

    Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

    Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

    Kind regards

  • Equium A110-233: upgrade HDD - can I use 250 GB HARD drive?

    Hi all

    I would like to upgrade my hard drive (40 GB now). What is the maximum capacity of HD, that supports my Toshiba? Can I put still 250GB?

    Another question is, can I buy for example external USB 2.5 "hard drive and swap the drive of my laptop with it, I mean put one of the USB box inside my Toshiba and Toshiba original to USB enclosure?

    If it works?

    Hello

    Unfortunately, there is no public document on upgrading the HARD disk and you will be very happy if someone can give you good info. I must say that I agree with GhostUK and I think that 120 GB should be enough and this HARD drive will be recognized correctly.

    In the end, do not you extreme upgrade. ;)

    Of course you can do it.

  • Notice - the upgrade to Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

    I am replacing the failed hard drive in my Presario V6305NR & considering the upgrade to 2 GB of Ram.  Should I try to reload Vista or can I switch to a new total installation of Windows 7?

    If the upgrade to Windows 7 is feasible, how & what problems can be expected?

    1-Yes, the next step I would try is remove the card and start once without him.

     

    2 - Yes, there were numerous reports of failure wireless and/or the chip Nvidia dv graphics and v made two or three years before. Unfortunately, most of the people seems to result from the motherboard. There is even an American in effect now colony for many models (US). www.nvidiasettlement.com

    I want to improve my HP Pavilion dv7-4150er and I need advice from experienced people.

    Now, I have:

    I want to buy a few HARD drives SSD for Windows and secondary soft and left for the data.

    On the 'Intel' site, I read that my

    Intel® HM55 Express Chipset Mobile

    is compatible with the more powerful processors. LINK

    And I have a great opportunity to buy Intel® Core™ i7-940XM processor Extreme Edition (8 M Cache, 2.13 GHz)

    How can I increase a CPU nested way (with another compatible processor) perfomance if 940xm is not compatible?

    Help me please.

    Thank you for your time.

    Hello nickiblackmore.  I understand that you are curious about the upgrade of your laptop.

    Here is a link to Guide of Service and Maintenance of your laptop.  It covers the disassembly of the laptop and can also show you how to replace parts if you upgrade the.

    If you switch to a Solid State Drive of a standard 5400 or 7200 RPM hard drive, you should see a significant performance increase.  This is because a normal hard drive spinning platters and it takes time to locate data on the trays as they are moving.  A Solid State Drive has no moving parts and therefor can locate data much more quickly.

    A CPU upgrade is a much more difficult question.  HP does not recommend that you perform this type of upgrade.  Laptops are generally designed with specific thermal and electrical needs.  If you change the CPU, it will probably create more heat and use a higher power that will cause you problems.  However, if you stick to a processor that is listed in the service (for example in your picture) Guide, you should be fine.  For example, you can choose one of the microprocessors found in the image to upgrade your laptop.  Also, keep in mind that the integral part upgrade as a CPU can affect your warranty (check your warranty here).

    If you think that answers your question be sure to mark the post as solved.  This makes it easier for others to find answers to their questions.

    Have a great day!

    Hi Rob,

    You must install first Windows XP and upgrade to Windows Vista.

    If you have a genuine copy of Windows XP, after you install Windows XP you can contact support for Microsoft's Activation to activate the copy of Windows XP.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles:

  • Reinstall Vista upgrade Express of Business to ultimate after hard drive crash

    When I bought my first computer at Dell, it had Windows Vista Business installed on the computer.  Shortly after the purchase, I bought an upgrade on Amazon.com to upgrade to Vista Ultimate.  I remember that when I upgraded, a file has been downloaded and executed on the computer that has provided the additional functionality of Vista Ultimate.  The file is stored in my service digital locker.  I think I have the product key that was used after the upgrade (it of in my notes, but does not match the original product code which is on the side of my computer).  In any case, the hard drive crashed and I reinstalled windows vista professional, on the recovery provided by Dell CD.  However, I can't seem to find a way to present a new request the ultimate improvement to the computer (it only gives me vista professional).  Now that the digital locker is gone, I can't recover this file and emails informing her service digital locker went went to an old email account I'm not "check very often (I located the email I was trying to research on mine)."

    Can someone provide me with instructions on how to apply a full new vista computer?  If I think I have the product key for the upgrade, is it possible for this punch in and extract the upgrade feature?  Thanks in advance!

  • How to reinstall the upgrade of Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

    I have a few problems and decided after many hours of nowhere to replace my hard drive, I am running Win7 installed via an upgrade disk, because it doesn't seem to be a startup disk (I want to run repair to try to recover the missing files / corrupted etc.) what I need to install Vista first and then use the upgrade disk?

    There are likely to be problems with activation etc as in the past, that a new hard drive has been regarded as the same license is installed on a different machine?

    * original title - hard drive replacement, Q on installation of Windows

    Thanks for both answers, but as I could not reinstall Vista due to the lack of drive & key - I put my system together myself have so do not the sticker supplied with the systems, pre-built, I moved twice since the departure of Vista installation, the disk may or may not be somewhere in this House.

    My solution was to take the opportunity to upgrade my CPU and add that extra RAM so bought a win7 disc at the same time (which I'll keep somewhere safe). Yes, I've probably lost money by doing it this way, but it's my money to waste.

    The end result is that the PC works well which is what matters in the end for me.

    Thanks again for the responses.

  • Upgrade installation will not work after replaced hard drive

    Have a HP machine that came with Vista. Bought an upgrade to Windows 7. Ran fine for several months. Then the hard drive failed. Installed a new hard drive. Partitioned and formatted. Windows 7 upgrade will not install. The only copy of Vista was on the hard drive crashed. A way to force the update to install. I have the license keys and the legal copies - simply nothing to install the first. Any help would be great.

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.
