  • How long an installion take to install Windows 7 Home Premium on a new hard drive in minutes, hours. ?

    Its seems its time consuming to install Windows 7 Home Premium

    It varies depending on factors such as the speed of the processor, memory, and even the speed of the hard drive. I've seen facilities vary from 14 minutes, 20 minutes to an hour to several hours, but is upgrade scenarios. Because you perform a custom installation, would be no more than 20 to 30 minutes. If you experience problems during installation, try unplugging all non-essential devices (printers, disk external drive, thumb drive, scanner), the installer of Windows 7 could try to detect them.

  • Install Windows XP disc required for the new hard drive

    I bought an Inspiron 510 m new Dell laptop some time ago and am trying to install a new hard drive. However, even though I have the license key of Windows XP on the sticker on the laptop, I don't have a Windows XP installation CD - Dell would be please to send me an and let me know who I need to contact my details?

    Thank you very much

    Good news - I just called Dell who have been extremely helpful technical support. They had no problem talking to me and agreed to send me a replacement at a reasonable cost drive, and it seems they still distribute XP discs. Just thought I would post only in case it helps others in the same boat.

  • Installation in Windows Vista Home Premium on the new hard drive

    I try to install Vista on a new hard drive.  All right until the END of the INSTALLATION is made.  Then the screen turns black with just the mouse showing.  What's wrong?

    We have no idea of the history of this computer or which has been installed on it.

    If you try to install Vista using recovery disk/s of the computer manufacturer, contact them for any problem with him.

    It is their software/recovery process, not Microsoft.

  • Removed the HARD disk with MBR/BCD who installed Vista x 64 Business on the new HARD drive

    I have vista x 64 business installed on a HARD drive, but it was (and still is) installed on an older HDD aswell and the smallest, the result being that when I removed the old hard drive to put in another computer, I was unable to boot the copy of vista on the new HARD disk as the MBR or the BCD bit that allows me to choose what vista start is on the old HDD. Using the installation DVD I can get up the command prompt and run Bootrec.exe without the old HARD disk installed, which can find the vista installation, but fails to solve the problem. I'm not an expert so I can't properly use Bootrec.exe, and startup recovery also does not work, although it seems to say that something to do with the startup has been fixed. Is it possible that I can get the computer running without the old HDD without having to reinstall vista on the new hard drive? Currently, I put the old HARD return drive to start the new installation of vista.

    When you move an old hard drive to a new computer, the installed operating system will find new hardware (motherboard, etc.).

    A clean install is a normal requirement, as no drivers are installed for the new hardware on the operating system.
    Thus, it will not start.

    How to do a clean install:

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • New HARD drive - how to install Windows?

    Hey guys,.

    I have a problem with my Dell Dimension 9150. A friend of mine gave me as a gift, because I built his new computer. We put his HARD drive in his new computer.

    The problem is: there is no CD of his computer.

    I have the original Windows XP and Windows MCE and CD licenses. The Dimension has a MCE key so I would like to install MCE.

    After installing a new HARD drive, I tried to install Windows. BIOS shows me the HARD drive. When I start the installation of Windows and choose "Windows Installer", I get to the screen where I can choose, what partition I would use. But installing Windows shows me no HARD drive!

    Don't know if I need SATA drivers? If I should need it, where can I find them? And how to get them in the Windows installation? I know that I can load pressing F6, but I don't have a floppy device.

    Would be great, if someone could help me.

    You can have the creative cloud installed and signed in on two computers as long as you don't use it on one at a time. Download and install as you did on the first computer, sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the desktop app from clouds, then download the software. Sign on a computer that should not be used: log in and log out of the desktop Adobe Creative Cloud application

    You can download the installer for Creative Cloud from here:

  • Install the new hard drive - how to proceed?

    My hard drive has bad sectors which (according to Spinrite) is not repairable.  I also ran all the HP utilities who tell me that the hard drive needs to be replaced.  So, I bought a new one that is the same size and the brand as what exists currently in my laptop.

    Laptop is HDX16 that came with Vista.  I upgraded to Win7 before realizing that my Imaging backups were a failure due to bad sectors.  The last good picture I have with Shadow Protect is the system with Vista and is now 3 weeks old.  Meanwhile, I use Norton Security backup feature to back up all my files on a daily basis.   I noticed yesterday that Win7 has a built-in backup feature imagery so decided to see if she would complete successfully and he did.  So now, I have a picture of the Win7 installation as well.

    I did system recovery disks for my laptop.  If I read information of HP correctly, when I run the restore, it will automatically create the partitions C & D on the new drive, install the recovery disk D environment and continues to run since that installation of Vista hard disk?  If so, once the operating system is running on the hard drive again, I think I can then move to Win7 yet and then use the recovery feature to copy the image, I made yesterday to the laptop.  Is this correct?  Am I missing something?

    Otherwise, my other option would be to run the recovery discs, then use the Shadow protect recovery disks to copy the old image of 3 weeks, then switch to Win7 again and somehow find all the files I have created/changed over the last 3 weeks I want to keep and they copy to the laptop?

    Any suggestions appreciated because this is the first time I installed a new hard drive.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    It may be faster to simply restore the image of Windows 7 that you have created the new hard - to do this, you'll need to the Image and a Windows 7 repair CD (you should have been prompted to do this after you have created the Image of the system).  The link below is a guide detailing how to restore an Image of Windows 7 on a new hard drive.

  • Is it possible to install Windows XP Home Edition on my external hard drive?

    I am currently using a computer with Windows 7 installed on the internal hard drive and want to install Windows XP on my external hard drive. However when I try to install Windows XP it says that my current version is newer than the one on the CD. I know that you can not install an old on top again, but what I want to do is install on my external not my intern.

    Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    Unless your external hard drive is an eSATA drive (which for all purposes useful, behaves as if it IS an internal hard drive), then the answer is no.

  • Reinstallation of Vista Home Premium on Home Basic on a new hard drive

    Hi all

    I don't know how to start my relocation.  Here is a little background and the problem:
    I was a stranger, and my hard drive crashed.  I had the hard drive replaced and the Windows Vista Home Basic edition is installed for temporary use.  Now back in the States, I would like to reinstall Home Premium edition (based) and all of its programs on my laptop and I'm not sure how to start.  I just put the disc in and go?  Or is it more that I'm missing?
    It is also necessary that I keep all my files currently saved on the laptop; so so simply by putting the reinstall drive in will require from a new team and wiping out my files, this is obviously not an option.
    Please advise!  Thank you kindly,
