• I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did. These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  My computer came with Windows 7.  Recently, my hard drive failed.  I have four recovery disks that after I bought my computer, I did.  These disks can be used to install Windows on the new drive?

  YES!

  I just did mine 01/01/2016, installed a new WD 500 GB HDD black on my laptop ASUS K52F, took my DVD 4 restore disks and restored to Win 7 Home Premium, more 10 Windows, which is sitting on my old HDD in the trash. I'll stick with my Original OEM OS and never improve to WIN 10 times.

  NOTE: The only time the restore disks do not work is when you replace your motherboard.

• How to install windows on the new drive?

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7-3080, which came with Windows7. Now, I bought a 120 GB SSD. I tried to install Windows on the SSD by selecting Factory Reset. However, I get the message that the size of the hard drive has changed and that's why I can't use Factory Reset.

  To my knowledge, I am not break everything right since Windows7 came with the laptop and was part of the price I paid for the laptop.

  Kind regards

  Hello:

  Partitions or recovery discs do not work on a smaller hard drive.

  You need to install a simplified version of windows 7 on your SSD. You will not break the laws or rules of license by using the product key on the bottom of the PC to activate the installation.

  However, if you can not read all 25 characters of the product key you are flat out of luck and will have to buy a new operating system.

  Here's how to make your own simple Windows 7 installation disc if you have not already.

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

• Install windows on the new drive

  I replaced my hard drive as old one stopped working, I had windows 7 Home Edition premium on the old, can I install it on the new hard drive otherwise that having to buy it because it's come on the computer when I brought and I have no install disc or anything. Thank you

  The original system would have a utility to create discs in particular that it was not provided with all, manufacturers were required to give one or another recovery option.

  Some PC manufacturers can provide this set of diskettes of missing recovery, but at a cost. If the COA label is readable, it should be possible to download the ISO installation to match the version that is named on the label.

• I was referred to this site. Problems with installing Windows on the new drive.

  Greetings!

  I just installed a new hard drive on my Mini 311 1037. I bought the HP recovery discs. The operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium (I guess it was the correct operating system for that computer). The installation seemed fine, but after installing the drivers, I get the message, "Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Then after the restart, after the initial windows screen, I get a message that says "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "I atempted to iireinstall 3 times. All diagnostic tests are good: the hard drive, the memory. I have no idea what to do next. Help, please?

  If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

  Links to downloads of Windows 7 ISO files:

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to convert the ISO file you download. Link and instructions below. You need to a DVD + R or DVD - R. Or a flash drive 4 GB to use the USB method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation

  Use 25 characters on the COA key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then, go to the page support and driver to install the drivers you need.

• Satellite C660 - how to install Windows on the new drive?

  I have an old C660 of 14 months (2 months warranty!) and the HARD drive died quite suddenly.

  * 3 days works great
  * 2 days, got stuck at the "starting Windows".
  * Tried to fix with a System Repair (DVD) boot disk, but could not solve the problem (ran all night)
  * Start of DVD today and now the prompt of commands, each command "dir" on c: takes 20 seconds and try to copy files gives IO error.

  I'm going to buy a new HARD drive and install, but is there a way to get Windows 7 on the drive?
  There is no Windows disk supplied with the notebook... THERE is a recovery partition, but it died too.

  I don't want to buy a new copy of Windows when I already have a license.

  (I never have a backup complete incl. system, like the one and the only time that I tried to do that it was unable to complete the process, killing of many Virgin DVD-R in the process).
  I have most of my personal files backed up.

  Thank you

  The situation is quite clear. You don t have created the recovery disk and you have only two options now:
  (1) you can order the original Toshiba Recovery disk and install the original recovery image
  (2) you can get the original installation disc from Microsoft and install own OS

  In the first case, check it please http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0202TA0000R01.htm

  If you take the decision to use option 2 Please note that your product key is useless and you have to pay for the new activation of license and the code. The sticker product key Microsoft belongs to the recovery image only.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Re: How to install Windows on the new Satellite Pro C50 8.1?

  I just bought a TOSHIBA SATELLITE PRO C50, that came with Windows 7 pre-installed.

  When you start the system for the first time, I simply close and put Windows 8.1 media into the optical drive (disc 1 of 4) then entered the Recovery Wizard and may have chosen the wrong option, because I completely erase the hard drive and partitions.

  Now that I did it, I can't find how to install the Windows Media Pro 4 DVD provided 8.1. I can't find the correct option to do this. I changed the startup option in the control panel by pressing F2 at startup, so it reads from the DVD player. The DVD starts but then takes me into a recovery area of the system, which is not good as I wiped the system completely.

  How can I just now to install the Pro 8.1 provided Windows on the clean system right now?

  Thanks for any advice.

  First, I would like to know what model of laptop you have exactly. If possible, please report the entire model number (C50-xxxxx). I just want to check the specification for this model of laptop.

  Did you buy this laptop as any new product and model in box?

  Anyway, if you have installation discs original recovery for this, you should be able to install it without problems. Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. This menu wil shown on the screen, insert disc 1 into the optical disk drive, choose the CD/DVD drive from the menu, and then press ENTER.

  ODD must start reading Wizard disk / recovery will be shown o the screen. Choose the option to install out-of-box / factory settings and just follow menu on the screen.

• G2 Desktop Elite SFF: cannot install windows 7 on new Office 800 2 elite

  Hello everyone

  I recently bought a new PC and I am trying to reinstall windows 7 (64-bit).

  The boots PC off the DVD without any problems, but when he reached the window "select language", the keyboard and the mouse

  stop working so I can't continue the installation.

  Anyone know how I can fix this problem? I suspect that something in the BIOS must enabliong or deactivation?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello:

  See if it works...

  I discovered that apart Intel chipset USB 2.0 support Skylake chipset.

  This means that windows installs the drivers normal USB will not work.

  The Microsoft Windows ISO doesn't have no native USB 3.0 drivers either, and that's why your USB KB and mouse go dead.

  Therefore, add USB 3.0 drivers in Windows ISO.

  Intel has on it.  They have a utility that does all the work for you.

  Run this and point to your Installation USB support and, hopefully, W7 will be installed.

• Satellite A200-137 - cannot install windows after the hard disk crash

  last week my a200-137 crashed and now I have the new hitachi 500 GB hard drive on it, even before the accident.
  I have install with Toshiba recovery DVD windows Vista on it and after succesfull installed I have to start windows, it says prepare for first use windows then I have to wait a while and then I get the message that windows setup is not complete. But it is complete!

  After trying to install 3 times with recovert I tried to install windows xp.
  After a few minutes and transering files, I don't get the message no disc found! It is said that there is no hard drive on the laptop!
  But when I start the start menu or the settings menu, I can see the 500 GB Hitachi hard drive!

  So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?

  > So why windows can't find hard disk and why can't I start windowds visat after installing with the recovery dvd?
  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say why you can not install recovery image. It would be interesting to know if the same thing will happen when you replace the HARD with the same or identical.
  This title was the original HARD drive?
  If possible, try to get original Microsoft installation disc and check if the HARD drive will be recognized by Vista or Win7 and of course if you will be able to install and boot OS preinstalled.

  Regarding the installation of Windows XP Home edition: it is well known that the WXP installation will start properly due to lack of SATA driver that must be loaded prior to installation of WXP begins.
  Check out this forum and you will find hundreds of threads with detailed explanation why this happen and what can you do about it.

• Bootcamp has not finished - how can I continue installing windows on the new partition?

  Hi thanks for reading me.

  I started the bootcamp, it created the partition and install windows started 8.1.

  He asked for the location of the reader, so I chose my USB hard disk (read here which was possible) - SSD space is such a premium.

  I was told that the format of the disc is not FAT GUD, so I gave up installing.

  I used the disk utility to reformat the external hard drive.

  How can I get the windows partition now rerun the installation process?

  I tried the OPTION start upward, but the new partition does not show yet.

  Any help would be really appreciated.

• Cannot install Vista on the new hard drive

  original title: Please help!

  I have a dell laptop inspiron 1720, not the newest I know but it surfs the web. At least it used to. I had some sort of virus or something and my hard drive kept bluescreening on me. I said, well I want to do this thing faster and have more space anyway. Out a ram 1 g got 4g, out went the 120gig and got a 250. Went to reinstall dell support stuff and it went well. Then had my vista disk and started to install. Expanded files ok and everything. You all the way to the install tab end and nothing happens? Don't know what else to do? Any help would be great.

  Turns out I'm only semi retarded. My friend told me since I have a new hard drive, I would probably need to first load the driver for it. Then I got to the part when you choose a car and chose to load drivers. Of course I had to change discs in the middle of install and load a driver for the new hard drive and everything went smoothly after that.
