Install Windows 7 Professional 32 bit - on a 64-bit of Windows 8 for dual boot computer
Is this possible?
When I get to the part where the installation is asking me to select a partition, it indicates that the drive must be in NTFS format. Windows 8 says that they are formatted in NTFS.
No idea why I get this error?
Help for this type of installation would be useful, including assistance to the implementation of a dual boot.
Thank you

Upgrade Windows 7 Home/Windows 10 Pro Dual boot computer CPU
I plan on upgrading my CPU to a core of an I5 Quad model, dual Pentium G630. The card mother won't be replaced as it can accommodate a socket LGA-1155. I can also be tempted to replace my current system with a 250 GB SSD drive. It is a dual-boot computer that used to have two installations of Windows 7: it was OEM that came pre-installed, when the computer was purchased, and the other was a retail version. The OEM version updated to win Pro 8, then Win 8.1.1 and finally Windows 10 Pro.
I would wait for activation or problems that this will be a smooth operation?
If so, what might be the complications?
Thanks for the tips

How to install windows 7 in dual boot on Satellite M840?
Hello
I've had this laptop M - 840 a week ago, pre-installed with windows 8. I can't replace the operating system with windows 7 as most of my Win 8 incompatible applications. I'm tired of clean install - does not work. I created a NTFS partition and tried to install win 7 on the new partition, but this isn't just beyond 'Windows startup screen. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Kind regards

To install Windows 7 on the laptop of Win8, you must change some settings in the BIOS.
First of all, you have to disable startup secure in the BIOS.
Second pass of the UEFI BIOS for the CSM and save the changes.Now you should be able to install Win 7
But before doing this, I recommend that you create the recovery media (Flash disk to USB memory or recovery Toshiba

Install Windows 7 without Dual Boot
Is there a way I can install Win 7 on a separate drive XP without entering the bootloader Win?
I would choose which system to start using the start menu in the bios (F12 on my Dell 4700). The underlying need is to remove the need for my spouse to have to deal with the boot loader menu.
BIOS on this system has an option to change the boot order of drives. I have not tried to use it, so I can't be sure it will work, but the result is that I could could move the new SSD to the top of the order. If this has been done before the installation of Win 7, it would be enough to win 7 auto loading on the SSD without the boot loader?
Or is it necessary to turn off the player XP is running from?
You will need the Boot Manager.
What you can do is the default operating system that you would like him to start when she wants to use the computer and set the timer for 4 or 5 seconds. Then he starts immediately to his OS of choice.
Otherwise, I would buy him a laptop.
Click Start, right click on computer
Click on properties
Under control panel home
Click on "advanced system settings".
Go to the Advanced tab
Under Startup and recovery, click settings
In the default operating system list, select an earlier version of Windows
Change the time for the list of OS to 4 or 5 seconds.
Click OK
Then apply and OK

Download and run the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool:
Download the tool: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=56062
Post your results (copy button) and paste the results in your answer.As a starting point, the first thing you should check is the section to three figures on the number of product ID, if it corresponds or is included in one or two digits of the examples below, you have probably a MSDN or TechNet product key. "These keys must not be sold for retail use.
065 066 067, 068, 069 to Ultimate, box 220 for professional and 230, 231, 232 area for Home Premium,
There are probably others, but they should be close to those that are displayed"
(How to be certain - download the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool listed above).Note: Though that illegally sold MSDN/TechNet allow product key for activation of more than one
(usually 5 or 10), so these keys can be sold "several times" before activation may fail.J W Stuart: http://www.pagestart.com

Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer?
Can I install Windows Journal on a Mac computer? I currently use Windows Journal to teach by posting paper documents on a smart board. The administration requires me to switch to a Mac, but I don't want to lose the Journal and its capabilities. I will not need to use a pen on the computer, I use the stylus on the smart board. I would buy the windows software of newspaper and try to download on a Mac. Can I order windows software log?
You have two problems here:
- Programs Windows cannot be installed on a Mac.
- Windows Journal is not available as a separate program.
If the Administration allows it, you can install Windows on a Mac with Mac OS X. Then, there are two ways to access the applications Windows explained here:

You can buy a copy of Windows to do this.

My old desktop computer recently died of a motherboard failure. As I understand it, I should be able to install windows 7 from my old computer to the new, but only if I delete the old installation.
Does this mean that I have to format the old HARD drive? Because the old computer HARD drive seems to be alive, I would retrieve the data on a new machine first, before I have to format and I need to install windows on the new computer to get the data from the old HARD drive.
No, it is taken on trust that the old installation is no longer active, there is no mechanism to remove the old license in order to make a valid new. Remove the Windows directory (or rename) makes the old system inoperative.
You find that the automatic authentication fails on new construction and need to call the licensing Center to check that you have only one installation. Apart from the OEM rules if a license has been activated too often, and recently, it fails in a 1 time.
