  You understand that you will not be able to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7?  He will have to do a clean install.

  The Council supports Windows 7, you can get the drivers here (the chipset drivers should be the first drivers you install after installing the operating system.)

• new hard drive - what is the difference in performance between the new installation of Windows 7 or a clone of old hard drive?

  I get a new hard Hard Drive (SSD).  The new disc is the same size as my existing SATA drive.  I can do either a new

  the installation of Windows 7 or a clone old hard drive?  I would prefer to clone the old hard drive and keep all my settings, etc.   It's empirical data on the performance difference between a new installation of Windows 7 or to continue with the Windows 7 which was 3 or 4 years ago.

  I know the conventional wisdom is that the new installation is faster, but, no matter who actually tested and compared the differences?  I know I'll get better performance of the SSD the SATA drive, but I don't know if it's worth the hassle to do a fresh install and redo all my programs and settings.

  Others that the performance of the SSD you should not see any differences.  If you do, you can always do a clean installation later.

• Logical disk partition not recognized in the New Installation of Windows

  Hello.  I would appreciate someone to give me any advice.  I don't know if the problem I encounter is an oversight on my part, but it was not something that I anticipated.

  To give a bit of background, until last week, I was running a Windows 7 system on my computer which included three hard drives (4 TB, 2 TB, and a smaller disk).  The 4 TB drive included my boot drive with Windows on a partition of 2 TB and then the unallocated space has been transformed into a new partition in disk management, received the drive letter G and was used for long term backup of data.

  Since then, I built a new computer and installed a new version of Windows 7 on a small SSD.  During this process, I have not all disks connected to the machine (except the DVD player) so that there is no possibility of installation of Windows, do something for these readers I didn't (I got burned by this time long ago when you reinstall Windows 95, which makes me just feel old).  After the whole installation process was performed and the new version of Windows has been working well, I opened the machine and plugged the drive 4 TB and 2 TB, assuming that Windows did not recognize them when I started.

  When I started in Windows, Windows does indeed recognize the two drives and assign drive letters.  But in the case of the car of 4 TB, he acknowledges that the partition containing my old boot drive.  No drive letter is assigned to the secondary partition.  When I go to disk management, it shows all of the remaining spaces as unallocated space, but seems not yet quite recognize space completely in the way he would if I'd created directly.  For example, if I right click in that box, I don't get the normal options to create a new Simple Volume.  Everything on this menu is grayed out except properties and help.

  So I guess I have two questions.  (Leaving aside the possibility of a hardware problem), was I wrong to assume that a hard drive divided into two partitions could be transferred from a Windows machine to another?  I honestly thought that no matter where no matter what Windows 7 machine would recognize the two drives, but maybe I'm missing something fundamental.

  Two and more important still, there advice for access to the data on this drive?

  Hello

  A problem that could happen is that the disk partition has security setting so that the profile of the user that created it would be able to access it, and seeing that you are trying to access from a new profile may not not allow you to access

  To access these files, you can try to boot from the old hard drive manually to change the setting of the partition or simply manually move the files and delete the partition.

  To start from the old disk hard restart have the hard drive is plugged in, restart the computer and while it is booting F12 key to select the boot device, after that, select the old hard disk and access them normally.

  hope this has helped.

• Problem with Windows Update after the new installation of Windows 7 Pro the Lenovo ThinkPad X 200

  I'm trying to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. The product key is easy to find on the sticker of the ThinkPad. However, the version of Windows is hidden (for example, I can't check that my ThinkPad had originally installed Windows 7 Pro). I was able to install by using a Pro Win 7 SP1 CD ROM I bought for another installation. I used the ThinkPad I was trying to make the new facility on the product key. I was able to activate the Windows 7 Pro using the phone call and my cell phone. I checked the activation! However, I have problems with Windows update. The product key may be a different version of Windows 7. If so, why did it install and activate OK? Y at - it a fix for this problem or I have to buy a new version of Windows 7 Pro? Please note that I have not yet installed all drivers Lenovo ThinkPad as I can't seem to install correctly. Thank you!

  Since the issue is updated to Windows, it is not a product number key.

  You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

  How to reset the Windows Update components

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

  Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista/Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

• News of connection fails for the new installation of Windows 7

  I just got a Lenovo Thinkcentre this morning and I carefully walked the first windows to connect. I put my password and checked every box because there is no way to see when I put. I put in an indication of password. I continued and continues. After going through the rest of windows, I got on the desk, and applied Windows updates. When it was finished, I rebooted the computer.

  I can not connect to the computer using the information I carefully typed in at the beginning. This is the second time that this is happening so I know I've been very careful. I was unable to save the last computer and I wrote something wrong chalked it up to me, so I reformatted it. What could go wrong? I tried "Admin" as user name and I tried I got in the beginning of the name of the computer.

  Try to reinstall Windows and configure the account again, and after reaching the office, create a backup account.

  In addition, for security reasons, enable the administrator account.

  Reinstall Windows 7:

  Using the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7

  Step 1

  Restart the ThinkCentre and repeatedly press the "F11" key like start the computer to the top.

  Step 2

  Watch a message on reboot telling you press F11 to access the product recovery program. Quickly, press the "F11" key when you see the message. If you do not see the message, you do not have a recovery partition on your hard drive and must instead use recovery discs. Once you enter the recovery mode, either by pressing 'F11' or booting from a recovery disk, the ThinkCentre shows main recovery screen.

  Step 3

  Follow the prompts to choose your recovery options. Use the settings by default unless you want to customize the recovery. You can choose options such as full recovery ',' "Content factory" or "Restore my hard drive to the original state of the plant," according to the particular ThinkCentre model.

  Step 4

  Insert new disks when you are prompted if you restore DVDs.

  Step 5

  Click 'Yes' when prompted to restart the computer. From this point, the recovery process is completely automatic. Your computer restarts several times, and the whole process takes sseveral minutes or more. Once installation is complete, Windows displays the configuration for a new user screen, as if the computer comes out of the box.

  Step 6

  Complete the installation of Windows by entering in your language, regional settings, network settings and the Windows user name. You may also enter your Windows product key, which is on the DVD provided with the system, or on a sticker on the computer.

• Touchpad does not work after the new installation of windows 8.1

  Hi, I have a hp envy sleekbook m6 model. in any case since I installed windows 8.1 cool my touchpad works until a point. Ill install the driver and it works fine until I have shut down the laptop computer, then restart. IM pretty sure that the driver is updated automatically and does not properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello again loplop8989l,

  Thanks for the quick response!

  Since you are able to use your TouchPad before restarting your computer, I recommend that you follow this document on How to perform a boot in Windows. This should help

  If the problem persists, I suggest to restore your system to a restore point when you first install the drivers for your TouchPad. To do this, please follow this document on using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8).

  Once you have restored your system to when the pilots first TouchPad installation, please follow this resource on how to activate the update or disable automatic so only with the help of HP Support Assistant (Windows 8). This should help to disable automatic updates and check to see what firmware to download individually. Please install each update individually, taking note of update causes incompatibility of software with your TouchPad.

  Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your response!

• Cannot adjust the brightness of the screen after the new installation of Windows 7

  I have a Pavilion dv2945se notebook. I have completely updated the Nvidia geforce 7150 m drivers. My laptop came with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, and I did a new install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I can't adjust the brightness of the display. I narrowed down the problem to the generic PnP Monitor driver. How can I solve this problem?

  Edit: I mean "impossible to adjust the brightness of the display" that every time I go into power options and trying to use the cursor, Windows Explorer crashes. Also, my fn + F7 and F8 keys light work before I connect to windows, but not after. I think that something will charge when I connect to windows that is causing the problem. So I went in Mode safe, but then all that allows to control the brightness has not loaded when I went into safe mode, which was not helpful. I also went into MSConfig and disabled all startup programs, but again, I have the same problem. The brightness of the keys work before connect you to Windows, but not thereafter.

  When I turn off the device generic PnP monitor (1) can't adjust the brightness at all and (2) the Power Options window stops freezing. That's how I've narrowed the problem to the generic PnP Monitor driver.

  I finally solved this by uninstalling the driver for the ALPS touchpad. Because there are no Windows 7 drivers for my laptop even though it is listed in the models capable of upgrading to Windows 7, I used Windows Vista touchpad drivers. It was the cause of my problem with brightness adjustment. I don't know why it worked, but I've narrowed it down by disabling all processes start and then from their one at a time to see what caused the problem. As soon as I started Apoint.exe, I started to have problems.

  Now, I just have to find a way to disable the touchpad tapping without the ALPS drivers.

• Minor problem with the New Installation of Windows 7 on my Inspiron E1705/9400 - two entries for "Base system device" under "Other devices" with yellow exclamation point

  Hello

  First of all, let me tell you about my system.   It is of a laptop Inspiron E1705/9400 with the Core 2 Duo T7400 processor clocked at 2.16 GHZ.   It has 2 GB of RAM and a hard drive on the Hitachi Travelstar nine 500 GB (7200 RPM).   It also has the GeForce Go 7900 GS video card.    Previously, it had Windows XP Professional (32 bit) and worked well.   But, I have three computers in my home and Home Office and would they work better together on my wired home network, so I'm upgrading all three to Windows 7.   My two desktops (a Dimension XPS 420 and the other Dimension XPS 430) seem like they will be no problem to upgrade to Windows 7.   But, this laptop was not on the list of Dell Windows 7 compatibility.   However, the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor that I have downloaded and run seemed to say that it was OK to do a clean install of Windows 7 32-bit and he had only a few minor issues, where it says search the drivers updated from the manufacturer.   Initially, the laptop came with a 100 GB hard drive.   For my use, which becomes very small, so I decided to get the exact same 7200 RPM drive 500 GB size.   This will allow me to do a clean install of the 32 bit Windows 7 OS on the new hard drive and not have to wipe the old disk to do so.   I can just keep the old HD and paste it back whenever I need to get something out of it.

  So, here's my minor problem.   After the transfer of some elements off the coast of the old hard drive, I installed the new 500 GB drive and installed a cleaning of the 32-bit version of Windows 7.    I'm happy to announce that I have not had virtually no problems with installation and everything seems to work fine.   He seems a little more zippy than before and I have not met so far that doesn't seem to work.   I went through most of features and almost everything is superb.   But there is a minor problem, showing in Device Manager.   At least, I think it's a minor problem, but maybe someone can give me feedback to know if she is or not.

  In the Device Manager list, there is a category called "other devices" now and the icon shows a little white circle with an exclamation mark.    When you expand this category, you see two identical entries that say "Base system device" and the icon has a yellow circle with an exclamation mark inside.     I know from experience that it is not a good thing to see items in the device manager that have a yellow circle with an exclamation point.   I clicked on both of them and neither one really tells you what the device is, or who did what is site you would go to a driver.    On the general tab, it has the following information:

  -Device type Other devices

  Reference of the manufacturer- Unknown

                       Location     -         Bus PCI 3, device 1, function 3

  
  

  Under device status, it says the following:

                         The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

  There is no driver selected for the item or a set of device information

  To find a driver for this device, click Update driver.

  Each of the entries seem to be almost the same thing... but not exactly.   The other has the location

  list PCI Bus 3, device 1, function 2... instead of function 1.   This seems to be the only difference.

  I tried the button to update the driver, but that doesn't seem to work.   No matter if you say it looks like your

  computer or to look for a new driver from the internet, it does not find anything.     As I said at the beginning,

  the system seems to work very well... but, given that I don't know what this device is or does, I might be missing something.

  He drives me crazy just have these yellow circles with exclamation point hanging out in my device manager.

  I could really use some help here.    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bryan Ray (Richmond, WILL)

  BTW, I just downloaded and installed the driver pack from this ftp location and it worked, even for Windows 8.1 - 64 bit.

  Thanks Steve!

• How can I connect the new installation of Windows 7 for the user profiles on a separate drive har?

  Original title: connect Windows 7 to the output of user profiles?

  I want to reinstall Windows

  My user profiles are on a separate HARD disk
  Is it possible to connect the new install of Win 7 to these existing profiles
  Or I'll create all new profiles and just move all the files manually?

  You can change the registry so that it points to your old profile folder. However, I suspect that this would cause problems because the SID and many registry keys would be incorrect for the current installation. I would like to move the folders manually.

• Help! During the new installation of windows 8 from windows 7, received the error message "could not find readers.
