Installation of Win7 on a new HD

I have a machine that previously had Windows XP, and I've upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium, several months ago. HD on the computer has failed, and I have a new on y. The only drives install Win7 I have are upgraded, and I do not have my disk Windows XP install more. I will be able to use upgrade disks to install Win7 on the new HD? If this is not the case, what should I do to get the Win7 copy that I already have on the new HD?

Thank you all

If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

Click Install now

Accept the license agreement

When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

Click on drive Options

Select the disc/s click on Delete

Click new

Click on apply

Click OK

Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

Click on properties

Scroll down to the Windows Activation

Click the link x days before activation.

Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

Enter the product key

Click next

Select the Activation of the phone

Click Next when you enter your key page

Select your country

Click Next, call the number listed

Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

Click next to complete the activation.

However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Reinstall win7 with a new HD

    Hi all

    just ordered a new sata drive to replace the hd broke for my W510. I'm trying to install win7 on it, but it seems that win7 doesn't recognize the drive and ask for a driver. (The BIOS recognizes the drive).

    so the question is how to install win7 on the new drive? where to download the driver for it? What is the issue of win7?

    anther thing I've tried is to restore the Acronis backup to the new drive, but after that the restoration process is complete, windows does not start with the error message "BOOTMGR is MISSING", is there a way to fix this? (while it save my time to reinstall everything from scratch.)

    Thank you

  • Problem with the Installation of JAVA in my new Dell running Windows 7

    Problem with the Installation of JAVA in my new Dell running Windows 7 - error message when you try to intall Java using Chrome.

    "lib'charsets.jar: old file not found."  However, a file of the same name was found.  No updates since the contents of the file do not match. »

    Then "Java update fails to apply the changes to your system."

    Then "error 1722.  There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A fun program as part of the Setup did not finish as expected.

    Earlier, I had a problem with the video and had Windows reinstalled 7.  Now my AOL games don't show/reading.  JAVA said error 1722 is an InstallShield error code. It indicates that the installation process has failed. The exact reason for this error is not known at this time.  I was told to uninstall JRE (Java Runtime Environment).  I find two versions of Java on my system (no JRE) - Java (TM) 6 - update 14 and 14 (64-bit).  Should I uninstall both?... OR WHAT?

    Hi Betty48228,

    Here's how to solve your problem:
    (1) uninstall all versions of Java.
    (2) the uninstall will probably fail. If so, get Revo Uninstaller free http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.htmland uninstall Java in advanced mode (integrated Java uninstaller runs, failure and then Revo will delete everthing manually). You will need to restart your PC.
    (3) reinstall Java: http://java.com/en/download/

    Welcome @HELPMEPLSHSLOL,

    Thank you for your participation in the forums! I see that you are getting the error "new device is now connected" when you try to install the printer software. I'd love to help you.

    If you are using Windows and you're using a USB connection, try the steps in this document: HP Laserjet products - "Device setup has not completed" or the "Unknown device" Message appears in Windows during Installation of USB. If the printer will not be updated of the Manager of devices in the two Solution, make a right click and uninstall the print device. It may be listed as unknown device, USB or Laserjet M1132 print media. Disconnect, then reconnect the USB cable to see if it will continue the installation. If it is not that whatever it is listed for your printer, try another USB port directly on the computer or another USB cable.

    What operating system do you use? How to find the Windows Edition and the Version on your computer.

    How is the printer connected?

  • j6410 over wifi is detected but not settled it on Win7 with the new installation of OJJ6400_Full_13.exe

    Dear all,

    I try to install my printer all in one HP Officejet J6410 (connected to an access point) wireless to my HP Pavilion dv5-1155eg laptop running Windows 7 Professional (ENG). I am trying to install using the new "HP Officejet Full Feature Software and Driver" (OJJ6400_Full_13.exe) for the specified printer. ""

    The rest of the HP software installation succeeded it. I am able to see the web interface of the printer from my browser. In the past, before the release of this new driver I could even print wirelessly, using the base driver provided by Win7.

    What fails is the installation of the printer itself:

    I use the software to 'Add a device' the HP that successfully locates my printer wireless in the screen "found network printers." I selects the printer, press 'Next', Network Diagnostics seems to run ok and then start the installation of the printer, it is firstly says 'printer detected... ". "but she eventually fails with the message:" printer setup is not complete - click Retry to try install again... blah blah. "

    To make richer information, I use a firewall of G Data Internet Security 2010 that I followed him and I can see that it is not blocking anything. I even tried installing with the firewall disabled, anyway...

    In addition, I tested my printer with HP Network Diagnostic Utility. The utility comes with all the information correctly (network configuration, configuration of the computer, HP printer running services, found wireless).

    Any help is appreciated to make it work because it's a major drawback, as you can understand...

    Thank you in advance...

    Thanks for the reply, but that was not the solution... As I mentioned earlier, I had tried in the first place without the firewall installation.

    But, I found a good solution to the problem, and because it might be useful to others I write it here:

    After the movie with the help of HP without success, I managed to find a workaround for the problem:

    1. I uninstalled everyhting about printer software/drivers & restarted windows.
    2. I installed the begin shape everything (the file I downloaded on the site of HP), using the USB option this time and not a wireless.
    3. RESTART WINDOWS (sucks bigtime - respect for unix/linux "reboot is for material changes!")
    4. After you have installed successfully with the USB cable, I chose the option 'Configure wireless settings' Installer extracted files resulting from the file I downloaded frrm the HP site (if after installation, the installer window is closed you will need to locate the extracted in your Temp folder files or just run the file again..). Just follow the instructions of the installer.
    5. This should make the thing! REBOOT (again) and you're ready to go!
    6. (OPTIONAL) For me, the installer actually worked at the last moment, where he stuck permanently. But that was ok, because it's stuck after you set up the printer and corresponding software. After some time, the installer came out with the usual submit an evaluation form. Just ignore it, reboot and everyhting should work. At least it did for me...

  • HP Pavilion 17-g101nu: installation of Win7 Hard Drives NOT FOUND

    I just bought a new HP Pavilion 17-g101nu and tried to install Win7 on USB.

    During installation, there is no drive to sellect as when the operating system must be installed.

    What can I do?

    I found people on the use of the internet a sort of burnt laptop drivers CD and then install them while on the process of installation of the window. Who will also work?

    I have also not found any settings in the BIOS on the formats of SATA and so on.

    I thank the of for playback.

    (I have no idea if this is the right place to ask, but just bought this laptop with only of BACK).

    Hello:

    First you must make sure that you have entered in the BIOS and enabled legacy mode that must disable secure boot.

    Then see if the response marked resolved in the link below allows you to install W7 from your USB key.

    Your laptop is the same chipset and the 6th series of processor gen like the one referenced in the message.

  • Installation of Windows XP on new machines

    Hey, does anyone know if the latest machines Toshiba supports the installation of Windows XP,
    It is commonly accepted to support only Windows 7 and OS later?

    I tried to install Windows XP Pro SP3, 2008 version on the machine Satellite C660 released in 2011.
    and he crashed at the beginning of the installation. Is it possible that the Bios prevents
    forcing to work with Win 7?

    Or some drivers are missing in XP installation package, which makes XP incompatible with HW?

    On this forum, you will find number of threads where you can find answer to your question and also good explanation how to do to install Windows XP Home edition on the new laptop models.

    > I tried to install Windows XP Pro SP3, version 2008 on the satellite C660 released in 2011.
    and he crashed at the beginning of the installation.
    I assume that it happens because of lack of driver SATA. It must be loaded with F6 before installation of WXP begins. You can also create the installation disk of Windows XP Home edition with the integrated SATA driver. How to do this you can read
