Installation of Windows 7 with new HD failure
Background information:
Just bought a new WD 1 b HD for my laptop Latitude E6510. Has decided to install Windows 7 64 bit version at the same time.
Problem:
I get about 3/4 the way through the installation and "Complete the Installation" (where system restarts normally several times)... the screen blinks several times, and then restart. Loading Windows comes up and then a mistake with this message, "installation of Windows could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer." I click ok, the system reboots, I get a "Setup is starting Services", then the same error once again!
I try to come back just to recharge my 32-bit version of Windows 7 and I get the same error.
Aid or reflections on this issue, would be greatly appreciated.
Load the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver F6Flpy SATA driver during installation. You can get one from Dell drivers and downloads directly to your model or go directly to Intel:
See the Windows reinstallation Guide - clean install Windows 7 step 6 and 8 for more details:

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

Installation of Windows on a new hard drive
I have a computer I want to get a new, more large hard drive. The vehicle currently has Windows Vista installed on it and the hard drive still works, I just need more space. What should I do to install Windows on the new drive? I will use the installation disc that came with the computer. If I get out the old hard drive, install a new one, put Windows on the new, then format the old one? Basically, I want to avoid having Windows installed on two hard drives to work.
Hello
the steps you have mentioned are correct:
take out the old hard disk - the new drive hard install - reinstall vista - old erase hard drive
You can then use a the old hard drive to backup your data
and read too much about the displacement of the full to avoid you operating system having to load data and programs again. but then you still wipe the old disk
It might make you save time and effort:
hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning software to move your operating system installed from the old to the new hard disk
Search for information on this subject on their Web site
If you have vista business or ultimate, you can use the builtin vista complete PC Backup to move
read the information below
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial145.html
or if you have vista home version you'll need 3rd party software
link below is an example of this:

Installation of windows 7 with bootcamp
In discussions with Apple Support technicians, I was led to believe that the MacBook Pro machines supported Windows 7 and above. However, when trying to install Windows 7 with Bootcamp Assistant, I learned that Windows 7 is not supported and I must have Windows 8 or higher.
Is there a work around? Or do I have to get a license of Windows 8?
For BootCamp, there is no work-around: Win8 or Win10 are your choices. However, such as Parallels Desktop virtualization solutions can run any version of Windows and can be a viable solution for you.

My hard drive is failng in my computer I get the message that "the failure of hard drive" is imminent for several months now. I did just recovery disks after I bought my computer and that you have ordered a new hard drive.
I thought that the part of the setup of windows on a portion of the current hard disk that I need to replace.
I want to just make sure that if I can restore the windows completely and that all programmes provided with the computer are on the recovery discs I want to do it myself - so I need to know I'm doing it correctly!
Thank you very much.
Kimberly
PS I found this web page below and I want to just make sure that it applies to me:
This link in the post seems to apply to the situation. If you have already completed the defined recovery disc then it should just be a matter of running the recovery disc after the new hard drive is installed. The recovery disk set will be "restoring windows completely and all programs included with the computer". Be aware that all other items that were installed or personal data will not be restored. When replacing the hard drive, do not buy a disc exceeds the limit of 2 TB, such as published in the SPECS for TouchSmart 420-1000 t CTO.

No DVD in OS Windows 8 with new HP Pav G6
Just taken delivery on my new laptop. There is no Windows 8 DVD with it. What happens if I need to reinstall the OS 3 or 4 years later, for example, in the case of hard disk failure?
Hello
You are welcome.
You can create 1 set of recovery disks (it comes to comply with the terms of the Microsoft oem license), it is always possible to order a set of replacement of HP discs if you lose the.
However, my personal suggestion would simply create a copy of the defined recovery disk.
You can use the following method.
Download and install the free software ImgBurn. ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn options).
Then for each disk:
Create a disc Image of the DVD on your PC - a guide for doing this is here.
Write this disc to a blank DVD disc Image - a guide to it's here.
(You could also save a copy of each file ISO just to be absolutely sure).
Kind regards

Recovery of Windows 7 with new HARD drive
Hello Forum
If you guys helped me with the HARD 'bankrupt' drive - and I have a new drive HARD ready to install.
But I need to back up the operating system (Windows 7).I don't have an external hard drive PC configured.
I have the DVD. I have a memory stick (empty - but unknown to memory capacity).
There is little data to be transferred (and to be honest - if it was over it would not be the end of the world).So I just need to back up the operating system.
I went in the 'create a back-up' then 'create a system image '.
But (and I may be wrong here) it seems that if she needs a greater memory than the DVD I inserted.The indices here folks?
And - waaaay out of my comfort zone. So any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Helpless dad.
> I went in the 'create a back-up' then 'create a system image '.
This has nothing to do with the picture Toshiba Recovery and recovery disc. There is option of Windows.If I have the right of you you want to create DVDs that you can use to clean the OS recovery installation of recovery. How it can be done is described in the document s user manuals.
Anyway, recovery media can be created using preinstalled Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool.

In fact on Presario CQ61-110SLI I have XP installed the Vista of origin instead.
Now I want to upgrade to Windows 7 and contestually get a new SSD Samsung 840 rather original EVO... What is the correct procedure?
Thank you
Hello
Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.
There is no procedure to upgrade from XP to Win 7, it would be clean installation.
1. place the SSD drive in the machine instead of the HARD disk
2. start the installation of Win 7 disc to install Win 7 (best x 64 edition)
3 install the drivers of the machine, you can download from >here<
Windows 7 is optimized to work with SSD, there will be no problem.
If you have important data on your old HDD, you can either save it before (on external support, USB key, Cloud solution, etc.) or after it (via a USB cable plugged into the laptop as external drive). This is also an option to transfer data.
Please, let me know if you have any other questions. Happy holidays!

Nice day.
I want to make a clone of the (c :) drive Reader of my current computer using a program called "EaseUS Todo Backup" if my current computer stops a day, that I want to install this image on a new computer. This software allows an image must be installed on another computer with different hardware etc. Anyone has experience with this. Will I have problems with the license. Can I use the license to the new computer or old, or if I have to buy another license. Would be nice if there is someone out there who actually did this.
Thank you, Jim.I use Todo Backup to reimage computers and I have to fix each time of installation. It has an option called a sector-by-sector backup who could make it bootable when you create the image and restore it on another computer, but it is not guaranteed, it will work, in order to prepare to re - install Windows 7 if necessary.
With respect to the transfer of the license, you can transfer them to another computer if its full version or upgrade retail license. The computer to which you are transferring the upgraded version must have a license of previous qualifying installed such as Windows XP or Vista or even Windows 7.
If the copy of Windows 7 you are trying to image came pre-loaded on your computer, the answer is no, you will need to purchase a new license. It's called an OEM license:
The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system
What is OEM software? :

How can I get my installation of windows in my new pc
My pc packed earlier, essentially the coprocessors and the motherboard has failed.
I had Windows Vista and Windows 7 is installed as a dual-boot options. Vista is an upgrade on XP, 7 was also an upgrade, but I have it installed as a new installation.
I decided to build a new pc, re-using many parts of my old, including hard drives, but obviously using a new card motherboard and CPU.
I really don't want to pay for Windows, microsoft have had more than enough money out of me over the years.
I am not too concerned by will work for Vista, but I want to reuse my license of Windows 7. I have the discs for Windows 7, can I have the disks for Vista but XP was installed when I originally bought my old PC and didn't come with any disks.
Ideally, I would stick my old hard drive in my kit and it work just but I'm not naïve enough to think that will happen. Anyone can give a direction would be appreciated.
Well, to install the Windows 7 upgrade, you actually have a license of previous qualifications, since it is an upgrade version. Or your original OEM of Windows XP or Vista Upgrade eligible because XP can not be transferred to a new computer and Vista upgrade cannot be used for product calling itself being an upgrade. You really should use a full version.
You can give the following a try if:
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.
