• I have to make a new hard drive for my Toshiba laptop, how do I get my current operating system (Vista) on the new hard drive?

  I already have Vista running. Last week I had to run the recovery disc that came with my laptop, now I am hearing cracking and screetching coming from the hard drive and it does not start. I intend to buy a new hard drive and replace it myself. How can I move the new Vista of the old hard drive?

  My computer did come with an installation disc, only a recovery disk.

• How can I install Linux (Ubuntu or Kubuntu) and Windows on the same HARD drive?

  Hello world

  I have Toshiba L20-148 and I have the Toshiba product recovery DVD and I have the DVD Ubuntu

  I'm only able to install Linux or Windows XP Pro I have with the recovery DVD

  and the only way I know to install both together by installing linux and windows... but every time I try to install windows, then factory data recovery, it is just the whole HARD disk and install windows only...

  any help?

  Hello

  As mentioned that the Toshiba Recovery CD contains image and files during the installation of the OS on the HARD drive or the partition will be formatted. In this case all data will be deleted.
  Therefore, you must create a second partition for the use of Linux. But be careful. Linux uses the special file format. Partition Magic 8 contains and supported the creation of the Linux partitions.

  So if the new partition has been created, you can install the Linux

• Cannot start windows, impossible to reinstall windows, can't restore windows to the external hard drive or to an earlier point in time!

  I have a Dell studio 1535 laptop. When I start it the typical loading screen appears with Dell logo and the possibility to go to the installation or boot menu.

  If I leave this office, I go to the Windows Error Recovery screen with give me the opportunity to start the system restart or start windows normally. If I start windows normally, the loading windows screen comes up while the screen flashes blue with white writing (too fast to read) and I am referred to the Dell loading screen.

• HP Envy 17, Win 7 64 bit - how to re - install windows when the old hard drive failed?

  The laptop won't boot and drive fails Diagnostics to market. Restore does not work and take the hard drive on the laptop & connection on my desktop I can not access the recovery partition. The laptop is out of warranty.

  I have a replacement drive, but as I have no install disc and cannot access the recovery partition how can I reinstall the Windows OEM 7 new hard disk?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  If the full 25-character windows activation key is visible on the Microsoft Windows COA on your laptop, you can download an identical iso file from here and install Windows.

  Download the drivers from the HP support for your laptop computer portal. Put them on a flashdisk usb (USB key) for ease of installation.

  Use the Microsoft Windows 7 USD\DVD download tool and a 4 GB usb (thumbdrive) flashdisk for the fastest and most reliable Windows installation medium.

  The value in this way you can have your laptop in a usable state while you wait for your ordered recovery disk.

  Hi, Amit,

  When you were in properties, try to hit the F5 key to refresh the screen.  Sometimes, it works.

  If you need to activate, at 1 866 530 6364, call the Microsoft Genuine Advantage service.

  They can take the information over the phone and fix the problem.

  Otherwise, you could try to reinstall Windows to see if it appears in the properties.

• Add the new hard drive, windows does not start now

  OK, ill be as specific as possible here

  Ive always had a few hard drives in my computer at all times

  A few days ago, I had problems with my windows 7 install that I tabled to the installation while I had all of my hard drives connected at installation time.

  2 days ago I decided to start over fresh with a windows 7 ultimate 64-bit. I also bought a new 64gig OCZ SSD for my OS.

  I disconnected all my drives except the SSD and performed a complete installation of windows 7 and all a well worked first go again.
  I then started to shut down my computer and adding a hard drive to the times and re starting and in ensuring that the drive letters came back how I got them I had on my previous built and changing them were nessisary.

  I installed my 5 drives in this case and the computer rebooted fine and everything was perfect until!

  1 SSD 64 GB
  2. 1.5 TB of storage
  3. 1.5 TB of storage
  4. 320 GB movies
  5. 320 GB games

  I copied all HDD 4. movies (only movies and music files) on disk 3.
  then I removed the hard drive of 4 and replaced by a new hard disk 1.5 TB and restarted the computer
  the computer starts very well and once loaded windows I coppied the movies and music of the new 1.5 TB hard drive back.

  now, I had

  installed hard drives

  This is were the problem started. I restarted my computer and it wouldn't start. He gets the message of realteck and just a cursor flashes and remains like that permanently.

  If I remove the sata cable to the back of the hard disc 4 the computer starts fine
  I can plug the cable in just before the windows screen comes up and the hard drive works fine and is FLEURIDAS and all.
  but leave it plugged during the start of what the computer does nothing

  things I've tried, I made sure all my boot priorities are pointing to the SSD drive
  I have turned all devices normal priming and the hard drive with the OS selected
  Ive made sure that all the drive letters are correct on each drive
  Ive tried to get started with the windows 7 CD to get to the repair section and I click Repair tool, start it recconises there is a problem but informs me it can not be fixed automatically and asks me if I want to send the information to microsoft (which me).

  Please help me!

  Hi Carolinelightfoot,

  This error message occurs when the system could not read and write data to the registry file. The error indicates a problem with the registry.

  Method 1:

  You can run a Checkdisk to see if there are drive errors that can cause this problem.

  Check your hard drive for errors

  Note: When you run the disk check, there is a chance of losing the data that you can take a backup of important data before you run checkdisk.

  Method 2:

  You can also try to boot from a full version of Windows Vista installation disc and try to perform a restore of the system to WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment)

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

  Hope this information is useful.

• 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.

  Drop the question above actually lead to what may be a solution... The fix for Windows Vista pre SP1 fixes an issue with the (cloned) dynamic disks used to store the paging file.  I have two drives on the clone (E:\) which the system information noticed the location of the swap file.  I put the pagefile drive to C:\ in the event where it was the same problem, such as reported in the hotfix, but it has not fixed the problem...  So I assumed that this fix has been exceeded and a coincidence. But the information system showed the swapfile E:\, my dynamic disks...

  What has removed the error is "double adjustment" the return to C:\ drive.  Apparently once is not enough.  I put the pagefile on C:\ managed and rebooted system.  Then I noticed the mistake of volmgr came from miroir3 (second player in E:\) still info system showed the swapfile on C:\.   Weird indeed.  I went and be given the C:\ drive as the system swap drive to managed by activation/deactivation/Executive every car out of the current value, and then back to the desired direction.  After having done that and restart once more the error no longer appears in the event viewer at startup.

  The only thing worse than a BSOD, no BSOD.
