I messed up my pavilion dv9700 with windows on two discs

I messed up my Pavilion 9700 with somehow Windows 7 on both drives, and then I couldn't do anything.  I took out the two discs, purchased another, installed as primary, installed Windows 7 and it is fine now.  However, I would like to be in a position to one of the players as the secondary, but I'm afraid to put it in.  How to wipe it or reformat so I can use it?  Thanks for any help.

Hi Philsmom57,

Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

I saw your post about your problem on double Windows 7. If you connect the second disk, you can format to remove Windows 7 from her and all the other data if you want to save something than the first.

Thank you

  • Pavilion Notebook with windows 8.1: burning problem of the photos on a CD

    On my old computer, it was easy to burn photos to a CD - R. I tried to do it on the Pavilion laptop with windows 8.1 but without success. Try with the office, the message says "windows can't burn to the current disc. Please insert a writable disc in driver E. " But I've been using a disc that worked on the old computer. When I tried it through Media Player, it didn't just start burning once I inserted the disc and no progress has been demonstrated. When I checked the properties of the E drive it showed there's nothing on the disc.

    Hi MMM55,

    If she did not work with Cyberlink so let's try another method. It is possible to burn without using software as if you were in the first place. I've included some tutorials and I think choose USB option is what caused this problem for you. Here's a YouTube video on how to burn a CD and the same thing but in steps written here.

  • laptop HP pavilion g6, with Windows 7 home basic 64-bit

    In 2012, I bought a pc hp laptop pavilion g6, with Windows 7 home basic 64-bit in Saudi Arabia. I found 2 months that I did after I bought it reinstall drive does not work please help me

    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 family Windows 7 Edition installation disk 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 a Windows 7 installation disc 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 64-bit - the source is Digital River).

    Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit

    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.

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

    Once that is done, use an application like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made 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.

    http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/how-to-activate-Windows-7-by-phone.aspx

    You may need for your laptop, software and additional pilots are in entering either the complete model number or product of your g6 series no here.

I could download all the usual stuff - Cleaner Windows, VLC Player, etc - but when it came to install a sound driver, the device will be not simply to accept the installation of the program, I downloaded.

    I remember well, I have this problem when I started to install Windows 7 on my laptop; I was able to download and install a RealTek program - I didn't know what version it was, but he just ran without a hitch on the laptop.

I do not foresee even write a post here, but it seemed to have no choice in the matter more - wrong I need help.

    I would be very grateful for any suggestion, you guys can throw my way. Thank you!

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Using another PC, download the app from the following link and save it in your downloads folder.

    PC login now

    Once the download is complete, open your download folder and double-click on the installer - this will result in another file, which is the disk image (.) ISO) you need to burn to a blank CD.

    Now, you will need to use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank CD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.

    When the disk has been created, shut down the PC you can not log on, press the ESC key as soon as you press the power button to access the Start Menu, insert the CD, select Boot Options (usually f9), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press enter - peut also have you to "Press any key" to boot from the CD if asked to.

    Follow the instructions on the guide here to remove the current password.

  • ProBook 4740S comes with Windows 8 install disc or not?

    Hello

    I bought my dad a HP Probook 4740 S nearly 2 years ago. I remember when I bought, the description says that Windows 8 but only Windows 7 preinstalled. Now, I would like to upgrade to win 8 but can not find the disc.

    I googled a bit, but unfortunately all resources referring to a Windows 8 media disc which I can't find.

    I find that a blue sticker says windows 8 at the back of the laptop, which let me think it may come with the right to move to 8 for free...

    Please let me know if there is a way to recover the product key / free upgrade to 8 with this laptop.

    Thank you very much

    Jason

    You are the very welcome, Jason.

    Normally, it's on a white sticker on the bottom of the laptop.

    Remove the battery and look under there too.

    If you don't, then it will appear in the system information window in the BIOS.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 with Windows 7 - HP BIOS update

    Good afternoon

    When I run the HP Support Assistant, under the button "updated and of the developed"; the tab "actions".  He tells me to update my BIOS.

    I select and menu drop down it states the following:

    • SoftPaq = SP61028
    • Version = F.29

    I select the download button and it does the new window and follow the download process.  When complete I chose to "restart" as requested.  Go through the necessary process.  Back on the desktop.

    If I open the HP Support Assistant and look under the same as in the first sentence.  He told me that I should update the BIOS and is the the same thing again.

    I tried 3 times to update my BIOS.  Is there a problem with the download?

    Seems to me having 'weird' things going on with my laptop the past few weeks.  Hard to explain but I post something earlier on the Interactive Services detection window popping up.  Also my Mozilla Firefox keep gel (not answer) as well as a few other software.   I ran tune-up and make sure that I defragment on a weekly basis; seems to help.  I use ESET NOD32 Antivirus and it to update as it supposed to.

    Any suggestions?

    Help

    Robyn

    Hello again LuvGSPointers.

    It turns out that SP61028 is the latest BIOS for your laptop.  However, you go ahead and try to download it directly from HP support site and install it.  Here is a direct link.

    I also suggest that you uninstall and reinstall HP Support Assistant.  Here is a link to the latest version of HP Support Assistant.

    Nice day.  I'll keep an eye out for your next reply.

    Hello

    Detection of Interactive Services:

    The program might know form, you or your permission to perform a task.

    If I see it, it goes to a white screen with two windows.  One is a runtime error (program:C:\windows\system32\spoolsv.exe) and other States something about the return to the previous screen.  Choose this option and it goes immediately to my office.  If I choose to ask me later, he returned to my office.  Anyway the window keep poping up.

  • How to use a flash drive for HP Pavilion p6331 with Windows Vista for backup worki?

    Hello

    While I have a master's degree, my know-how is written the text, does not not with the computer functions that are new to me.  Whenever I try to my backup job, the default setting of my Media Smart desktop assumes that my files will be sent to some separate, newly purchased drive, drive E.  However, I don't have any drive E!  I bought some DVDs but they keep rejected and cannot be written above.  Seems cheaper solution was to buy a flash drive.  I tried to save, but the menu showed that drive new E or "insert DVD."  What I need to know where/how is insert (front of the back of the Tower?) flash player and the "selection" of this option.  Do I need to buy a special cable to connect this small Lexar Flash drive, 16 GB?

    Thanks for all the words of wisdom.

    Hello leathergirl. I checked the model number on the HP website and did not find a system with this model you listed.

    You can see the card reader in the E: drive when you try to back up your data.

    You should be able to navigate to any location (by car) which is able to accept data during backups. I don't recommend that you use the backup but just Windows copy and paste all data, such as documents, pictures, music, etc..

    Unless you use DVD +/-RW disc, the DVD disc can have that data written (burned) to them once. DVD +/-RW can be rewritten several times before becoming defective.

    The Lexar 16 GB Flash drive USB should be inserted into the USB port on the front and then recognized by the operating system and drivers must be installed by the operating system.

    You should be able to copy and paste your data to the Lexar FlashDrive using Windows Explorer. Lexar Flash drive must be placed in the list of drives on the left side of the screen when using Windows Explorer.

    Hello

    overheating can cause sudden stops of your machine.

    with a laptop computer, make sure that the vents are regularly cleaned of dust, etc.

    Also make sure that the laptop is in a well ventilated area, not used on the bedspreads, blankets, etc.

    If above does not solve you may need to provide computer technology to clean inside and make sure that the fan/s work properly
