• Windows could not set up to run on the hardware on this computer.

  After getting a new hardrive, I used the recovery disks. Once the three discs are finished, it goes to "Please wait while Windows continues to set up your computer" then a few minutes later it rises, "Windows is unable to complete the installation. To install windows on this computer, run the Setup again. Is there a way to correct this error without lose more money?

  Hello:

  Try to make your own Vista installation disc and see if you can get Vista installed in this way.

  If you are in a fault light but rewarding, you can make your own Vista installation DVD so you can read your Vista on the PC 25-character product key.

  You just download the 3 files you need on the link below and read all the instructions to create a Setup bootable DVD disk using imageburn.

  Do not take into account the part of the text in the first screen shot about "extract the files in the folder of Vista."

  The files were extracted already in this folder when you ran the X14.exe file by reading the text on top of the first screenshot.

  The other thing I noticed is on the 4th page, where it shows Developer ID Microsoft Corporation. I had to type Microsoft Corporation in me, and then other codes already filled in.

  When I went to compile the ISO file, ImageBurn gave a message on a WIM file, file and ISO, and if I wanted to burn it in a different format.

  I selected no, make the ISO file.

  It was not so hard to do. I burned both the disk of 64-bit and 32-bit disk in case I ever need them.

  I tested both of them one my hp dc7100 CMT desktop PC, worked flawlessly.

  When you enter the product key, he knows which version of Vista you have.

  After you install Vista successfully, you can then install the drivers for your PC and driver page support.

• 8024A 000 - Windows Update code does not work and "installing Windows could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer" for Vista64 reinstall

  I have a HP Pavilion Elite e9180t PC comes with Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I had the hard drive (Seagate/Barracuda 7200, 750GB) SATA to go over me (after the expiration of the warranty of course) so I replaced it with a WD Caviar Green 1 TB drive.  When I rebooted the news of recovery disk to the new disk, VIsta worked but Windows Update does not work and I get A 8024, 000 error Code.  To worked with Microsoft to try to resolve that (never made), I am frustrated and all saved just reinstall Vista.  When I try to reinstall Vista, I now get the message "installing Windows could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  The installation progresses up to the stage of upgrade (a final) then I get error and it puts everything back the way I started.

  The only thing I changed hardware wise is the hard drive, so this error message seems silly because Windows runs on this material.  I even double checked that Vista is always enabled.  Anyone out there have any ideas?

• Replacing hard drive, made restoration of the factory, get the message error "installing windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  OS = Windows 7

  Computer = Gateway FX6840
  Media = gateway recovery media
  Hard drive is set to AHCI in BIOS

  I started meeting with S.M.A.R.T. errors.

  I backed up my data.

  I replaced 1 TB Seagate original with a new 2 hard drive to Seagate Barracuda SATA STBD2000101. Computer is equipped also is from the factory... no additional or modified facilities.

  I tried to restore Windows 7 from the rescue of the disks created with the "Gateway Recovery Management"

  Windows copying files over, the machine restarts, it installs the devices, then it stops at the "installation program starts services" and a window opens with the message "windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer.

  I can't apply the Article ID: 2466753 because the process of restoration of the plant seems not provide an option to load a driver .

  Any help would be appreciated... Gateway is only interested to collect money.  They have no interest in serving the poor suckers who buy their products (computer is 2 years old so it is out of warranty).

  Thanks for the reply.

  Fortunately, I solved the problem myself (after 19 hours of stress).
  The problem is that the recent hard disk has something different that no longer ages and makes pre-service pack 1 (SP1 solves the problem) versions of Windows 7 incompatible. My set of recovery disks have been created the day I bought the computer, which had no windows updates installed at the time.

  There is an "easy solution" on the Microsoft support site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us

  Unfortunately, their method works only if you have a Windows 7 installation disc, which does most of the people who buy computers pre-built manufacturers. Essentially, the solution is to install SP1 from a disc when don't give you the possibility to load drivers during installation, an option that the gateway recovery disks.

  So I thought that, theoretically, if I use my recovery discs to get a clean install on a hard drive that works, then use windows update to get updated (or at least to get SP1), and then make a set of NEW recovery disks (using windows backup: start > all programs > maintenance > Backup and Restore), I should be able to use these discs to install the new hard disk.

  It worked.

  So for someone else who has this same problem with new hard disks, I hope that the above is easy to understand. If not, ask someone else more savvy and show them this thread. Do not forget that at the end to create new recovery disks, it will ask you if you also want to create a 'system' repair disc. DO THIS! This is the disk that you need to start from when you are ready to install.

  Also: If your new hard drive is bigger than the one that you have created the new recovery disks, the partition on your new hard drive (once everything is installed) will be the same size as the one that you have created the records on. You will need to use a kind of editor of score for re - size. I recommend Gnome Partition Editor. http://www.gparted.org

  Burn gparted Live CD and him, resize your partition, and you're done (google for more in-depth instructions).

  Thank you, theloungelizardK, for the offer on the ISO, but I don't need. :)

• Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer

  HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b023cl

  I tried to install Windows 7 on my computer for the last day and after several attempts the same error message. It is said: "Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer." How would I go about fixing this problem?

  Thank you

  Hello:

  I'm not sure that there is a 'one size fits all' answer to this problem, if you google the error.

  The most common solution is to try to install the SATA driver.

  Here is the link to the SATA drivers you need for your model. Download and extract to a usb flash drive.

  First file listed is for 64-bit operating systems.

  https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?AGR=Y&DwnldID=22194&ProdId=2101&lang=eng&OSVersion... =

  Use the Drive Options - Advanced method to install and then select the option load a driver.

  If you check the box, only the compatible SATA driver is selected.

  See if it works.

• TouchSmart 600: windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer

  I had a Touchsmart 600-1120 Windows 7, don't know if it's 32-bit or 64-bit. I had to replace the hard drive and I bought a Seagate st2000dx001-1ns164 model. After installing the new drive, I used the recovery disks, but when the pc reboots I get the following message: "windows could not setup configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Are there new drivers I need to install and if so, where can I find the?

  Thank you.

  I suspect that the reason for the 2 TB drive vs the 750 GB drive that was there.  All of the recovery check the hardware on the PC which is used and rejects the hardware changes if it differs too.  I don't know a way around this limitation.  I suspect that a copy of Windows 7 retail install OK but then you have all the drivers, FOUND HERE.

  Another way would be to get a new 750 GB drive to replace the original failed drive.

  If the installation fails again, it may be a hardware incompatibility problem. Go to the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor on the Microsoft website to see if your computer can run Windows 7.

  If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  Hello Baron Belal,

  Since your computer is new, contact the computer manufacturer to get the recovery disks. You can have a recovery on your computer partition to use instead of the discs. Look at your documentation or contact the manufacturer. It should still be under warranty.

  Let us know if you have any other questions.

• Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware of this computer Installation error on the new hard drive

  Okay so if please bear with me and be patient.  I'm not tech savvy.  I know enough to be able to remove an old hard drive and put another one, but when there are errors, I don't know what to do.

  Here's the situation.

  I have a Dell Studio XPS with Windows 7 installed.  I started having these notifications that my hard drive could be a failure.  I tried everything that I could find to fix it without having to buy a new HARD drive without success.  The current system has a 1 TB Seagate hard drive.  I installed a memory additional bar thingie right after that I got the computer about 4 years ago.  (If someone tells me how to find the properties of real system, I post them if necessary).  Anyway, I bought a new WD 1 TB black disk hard to install before my old dies and loses all my photos and documents, etc...

  I took the old drive yesterday and installed the new hard drive.  I put back the case and turned on the machine.  I put in my Windows 7 installation disc.  He began installing Windows 7... It's completely past the initial screen where it says it to load it and the other... I had accepted the license agreement, but did not have to make a profile and do the work and the reader.  I hope all this makes sense.  Then it pops up this message "installing Windows could not set up Windows on hardware on this computer."  I couldn't figure out what to do from there.  I got the new drive and put the old one back to and here I am. I tried to find solutions to this problem, but I either don't can't make heads or tails out of the responses on the internet or the solution is not exactly my problem.

  Please help if you can!  And if you have any suggestions, please dumb them down so I can understand what to do.  I CAN do if loaded, you just have to not talk too irritable.  Laughing out loud

  Thank you in advance!

  Maybe not...

  The Windows installation is not happy about something, and since it gets at least started which is a good thing, but your installation problem can not really be with Windows - perhaps something about Dell hardware or your 1 TB HARD drive.

  I looked at your system and found this article that you can read to see if it sounds like your original question:

  Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware on this computer.

  http://www.Dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN293812/en

  Since Dell has written an article for help on this subject, it means they've met enough times to take the time to compose the article and put it on their WWW site (but, they say, it is a possible resolution).

  Could you take the issue in the Dell online community where experts hang out (especially your amber light).

  Another good place for support is www.bleepingcomputer.com where there is a similar topic as your question (except Vista) on a Dell and a new disk of 1 TB (also a Seagate) and Dell ideas did not work, but someone else has found a way to fix it:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/453378/installation-fails-to-complete-on-new-HDD/

  The bleepingcomputer for your error message search reveals other areas and people who have got things to work in different ways, then it is perhaps another place to look for ideas.

  If the installation still fails it would not hurt to do the BIOS setting and see if things are getting longer, and since you are going to write the current settings before proceeding with the adjustment you can always cancel the adjustment if things get worse.
