  • I want to install Win 7 Pro 64 bytes on Win 7 Pro 32 bytes.

    I want to install Win 7 Pro 64 bytes on Win 7 Pro 32 bytes. I would lose my Microsoft Office 2007 and files, 3rd party software. If so is there a way to save them? How can I backup my Outlook pst. file? Is that all I have to do it before I try it?

    You cannot go directly from the 32-bit to 64-bit.  The best thing to do would be to create a new partition and install the 64-bit version in that.  You will have access to the data on the partition of 32 bits, but will need to install your applications in the 64 bit one.

    Good luck.

But, when I try to boot from my Win Xp Pro CD (with no SP1 or SP2 integrated), I get a blue screen of the STOP just as the installation application reached the phase "the installation program starts Windows! The STOP message says something about a file named "pci.sys".

    I don't know what the problem is or how to install XP Pro! It should be so simple! I even tried the SATA drivers from intel and load the Windows XP Pro install the program installation (F6) with a floppy, but I always get the same blue screen at the same stage of the installation.

    Can someone help me please? Can someone explain how to install Win XP Pro on this laptop?

  • Trying to install win xp pro on the Satellite A200 - TH1 (PSAE3C)

    Hi all
    I just bought this laptop. It came with vista. I want to install xp pro on it, I mean keep vista as well. So I made the partition and assigned 72 GB for xp pro. Now the problem is that xp pro install cd does not recognize the hard drive. It says no hard drive present.

    It is a SATA drive. So I did some searching on Google on it and found that xp pro doesn't have SATA drivers and this is why you may not see the hard drive. I need to install the SATA drivers with xp pro by pressing F6... and blah blah. Given that this laptop didn't come with the disk, then I found on some forums to include drivers with xp pro cd and make an iso image and try to run it.

    I tried several times but each time it gives me error this cable is broken. Is someone can pls let me know what is the problem? And also if anyone can guide me to get the right drivers for my SATA drive and intel 965 PM chipset... If I go the Intel Web site.

    They are all. EXE files. I want the driver files only, so I can insert them into the xp cd. Thanks for your help and guidance adavance.

    Hi all

    I was able to get the drivers... now, I came across another hurdle... When I put the XP installation cd (which is an ISO bootable disk... This includes the xp sp2 and realtek nic drivers) it gives me message that searching for media... RTL8100E/8101E v1.02... test failed... Check if the cable is connected...

    Any ideas? What should I do now? Any suggestion would be appreciated... Thank you

    Hi Nathalie,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have questions, decommissioning of pre-installed Windows 8 for Windows 7 Professional. We will certainly help you with the same.

    1. Can I know the reason for the downgrade? Are you facing any problem with Windows 8?
    2. You have an active professional for Windows 7 product key install?

    In the meantime, if you have important data, I suggest you to take a backup of the data before reinstalling.

    First of all, check whether the computer is compatible with Windows 7, go to the manufacturer's Web site and see if there are drivers for Windows 7 also.

    If you want to install Windows 7 with Windows 8 in the computer, refer to the link below to install Windows 7 and Windows 8 double trunk. Follow the suggestions by Andrea De Costa and see if that helps.

  • I want to install Win XP on Satellite A305-S6905

    Hello.

    I want to downgrade my Vista to XP because of problems and slow down my PC...
    For example I can't download updates antivirus, games etc...

    I read in the forum that I need some kind of sata drivers and those I can do myself, but someone can help me with other drivers because I use this laptop for an hour and I know not what drivers there need.

    If someone could give me links to the necessary software, I would be very grateful.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I think that you couldn't find the right drivers XP because you didn t find on the right-hand page.
    Like you probably n t know that this series of laptop (Satellite A305) belongs to Toshiba from US and you have to find good drivers on Toshiba U.S. page!
    http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/home.to

    In addition, if you want to install Win XP on laptop thin, you will need to install the SATA drivers first.
    The SATA drivers are on Intel Storage Manager part which can be downloaded from the Intel and Toshiba page page as well.

    But if you don t want to install SATA drivers, there is another possibility to install the XP.
    Just access the BIOS and set the compatible SATA to AHCI mode.

    That s it.

    You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.

    I propose to you leave as is and put to upgrade to 8.1 Windows put in day 1 which significantly improves the user experience for mouse and keyboard users, more:
