• lost my operating system

  Dear Sirs:

  I have laptop Hp pavilion 1240se g6 and I lost my OS after format.

  so, how can I get my original copy of Windows 7 home basic oa mea

  I still have a product key

  Thank you...

  Hello

  Here are a few options.

  1. you can order a set of replacement of the recovery media using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2 you can use the following method to create your own Windows 7 Edition installation family support basic 64-bit.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create Windows 7 installation yourself using another PC. However, it not there no download directly available for Windows 7 Home Basic Edition, so you'll need to download another version (one will do, but the link below is for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit - the source is Digital River).

  Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit SP1.

  For the key on your label of COA to work, you must now use the method described in the following link to convert this ISO to an all-version Installer - the section that require you to edit the ISO is Step 1 DVD universal (although you will create an installer from usb, the method to change the ISO is the same).

  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/85813-Windows-7-universal-installation-disc-create.html

  Once done, use an application like Rufus to create a bootable Windows 7 usb flash drive.

  Use the Flash drive to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA in the request and one time Setup is complete, use the 'method of phone", described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  You could possibly need for your laptop can be found, additional drivers and software here.

  Hello

  I think that you have formatted the HARD drive. Is this good?
  The lack of OPERATING SYSTEM message is clear that there is no OS on the HARD drive

  The solution is simply. you need to reinstall the operating system

  Now the question is;
  Do you have a recovery disk or other drives that allow you to reinstall Win XP? You need an OS disk to reinstall the operating system on the HARD drive

  Second if your CD/DVD drive does not work then you might try to copy somehow folder i386 to the Win XP disk on your HARD drive.
  You can then use the winnt.exe command to start the installation of Win XP

  This is only one possibility to install Win XP without CD/DVD drive

• Cannot start the operating system preinstalled on Satellite L350-170

  Hello!

  Today I was surfing on the internet on MSN etc and my phone froze. I tried control, alt, delete etc and nothing happened so I finally pushed the power button.

  When I turn on the laptop now I get this:

  * Windows Error Recovery *.

  * Windows cannot start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.*

  * If Windows files have been damaged or misconfigured, Startup Repair can help diagnose and fix the problem. If the people was interrupted during startup, choose Start Windows Normally.*

  * (Use the arrows to select your choice.) *

  Launch Startup Repair (recommended) *.
  * Start Windows normally *.

  When I choose the first option (startup to launch repair) a loading bar comes up saying "Windows is loading files...". ': then a loading bar "Microsoft Corporation", then this charge and brings me to a gray screen:

• Operating system preinstalled on all new Satellite C850 - 14 c is in Finnish

  It is a strange problem. My brother has recently ordered a new laptop C850 - 14 c and it arrived by mail direct from the warehouse. When it out of the box, she had a UK Plug and a UK keyboard (we are in England), but when it was starting up it was all in Finnish! Is Windows 7 and all the software is provided. The indicator of keyboard in the status bar in down options STANDARD (for England and the Australia), FI - Finland and MK - (former Yugoslav of Macedonia).

  I was wondering if there was some sort of option 'dual boot' to start in different languages, but I did not fall on something like this in this forum. So I checked the serial number on the Support from Toshiba page, who correctly identified it as a C850 - 14 c with Windows 64-bit Home Premium edition SP1, but the language was not English but "NH".

  Someone met by this kind of thing before? He will probably have to return the machine to get a warranty replacement, but wanted to know if he was missing something obvious before he sent again.

  There is probably a mistake. Return it to the seller as soon as possible and ask for replacement.
  By the way: can you please post part of exact model number?

  You can find it at the bottom of the thumbnail of Toshiba. It must be something with PSKC9E-01xxxxx.

• Lost my operating system XP - need a replacement drive

  The hard drive of my house died. I replaced and started to load the recovery discs for that are the bad discs. My ex had a HP compaq and it must have taken my records with his departure these instead. Needless to say, I can not activate the reload XP.

  Is it possible to get an installation for Windows XP disc or maybe activate the XP version of compaq to my ex?

  Hello:

  HP probably will not have recovery XP disks more.

  You can contact HP technical support and ask, but I think that they will confirm my opinion.

  The only place I know that could still have a scheduled for PC recovery disc shipped with XP is this provider.

• Satellite M200 - first start interrupted, now it will not charge the operating system

  Brand new laptop.
  Initial commissioning where the operating system is loaded was interrupted and now when I try to restart the entire process just to get a message indicating that windows has been interrupted and restart before installing.
  However after restart "the same message reappears and I'm going round and round in circles. Any ideas please.

  I don't know what the problem is here, but I recommend you use the supplied recovery DVD and reinstall the OS. After 25 minutes only you will be able to start the clean operating system preinstalled.

  Sorry but this is just a logical step you must do in this stupid situation.

• Satelite S3000 - X 4 - "No operating system".

  Help!
  My S3000 - X 4 Satellite lost its operating system. He worked quite happily a day and when I went on the other, that he would not start it upward and not reported 'Operating System '.

  Looking at the system setup program, the bios did not recognize the HD and simply shows a heart-shaped icon in the Hard Drive section.
  System Partition order of Vcom as it is booted from floppy disk shows the drive as being totally free as if it were a new hard drive that had just been installed!
  The laptop has never connected to the Internet, where he could have been infected by a virus.

  If anyone can help I would appreciate that the laptop is a lot of work, which I just can't afford to lose.

  Hello

  I guess that partitions data are lost and the unit doesn t know how to deal with it. I put t believe that it can help, but you can try to remove the HARD drive and put it in again.

  You can try to use some data tool. On this way, all data can be saved, but the problem is how to remove on external data storage media. Sorry, but this procedure is not easy.

  At the end (with backup or no data), you must pre-install unit again.

• How can I get the operating system?

  My computer broke down the month last because of the material. And I had hardware replaced, but I also lost the operating system. I bought my computer in Toronto last year, but I live in China now, so I transferred to China. The computer is still under warranty. But it will expire on January 4,2014. An agent in China told me that I could not order the CD for operating system just because the computer has not bought in China. Can someone help me with the problem?

  Each Dell laptop comes with a recovery of the OS disk and even discs for re-installation of the drivers. If you have lost the CD, download Ubuntu Linux or if you have something to spend, you can buy Windows 7/8 on your choice. In order for the features, Windows 8 and Windows 7 compatibility.

  Unfortunately this is more true. All (not just Dell) computers sold today are supplied without drives. Tablets, ultralight aircraft and some laptops don't even have optical drives. If you must reinstall windows there are several options - using the recovery Partition or Images of system or to order discs from windows or usb thumb drive of the manufacturer, if you are still under warranty.

• Why the books are grouped and preinstalled with the operating system?

  It's complaints

  My Portege has Windwosw Vista. I didn't want to buy Vista, but they were only selling with him and no other choice was possible to purchase.

  First of all, my laptop had problems to install Windows updates. I could not connect my institution's Internet System. I had to reinstall the system again.
  It's a waste of time!

  After re-installation of the button for the sound on the outside Panel does not work correctly.

  Also, when I try to stop the laptop sometimes it restarts itself - he doesn't stop!

  Secondly, I had a problem with the laptop, when an opportunity to visit a well-known site, it serves to block itself.
  Once, when he is blocked, I had to restart and its screen remained black. They took for repair. It was delivered later - repaired, but with a defect on the screen!
  What a... workers!

  When I bought this laptop he had an offer with the update of Vista with Windows 7 after their release.
  Wonderful. But just note, Toshiba has the highest price of the offer, compared to its competitors - 30 (or £) against 15 for others, which of course I'm not going to pay.

  I already paid for Vista, which is incredible, and I knew, but I had not choice not to buy!

  All right, so there is still competition in the market, several possibilities are present - install Windows cracked, switch to Linux or just buy an Apple!

  Please, take this comment seriously! And please, stop with group buying, no matter what the benefit is. It won't work for long.

  Hi mate

  Fact is that most of the laptop manufacturers sell the computer and laptop computer with a preinstalled operating system. So I wouldn't blame Toshiba or other brands for which

  You get a new computer/laptop with a new OS.
  During the past 20 years, Microsoft released 3.0 Win, Win 95, Win 98, Win NT, W2k, Win XP, Win ME, Vista and Win 7, I remember that all my computers or laptops were grouped with these operating systems

  Toshiba offers the notebook with a clean image and you can also create a recovery disk (so don t need to buy anything if you need t n)
  Of course, each of us can install a clean OS, but there are a lot of people who are happy with such image pre-installed because everything is pre-installed and configured.

  Many people have no knowledge of computer wide and are really recognizing that everything is pre-installed and the configuration does not have a lot of time

  With regard to the question of the laptop;
  What to say; you had a bad luck that something was wrong with the laptop. This can still happen that my new LCD TV other manufacturer, was dead after two weeks, I called ASP, then replaced the screen now is ok
