It is up to you to determine if there are apps you want to keep. Windows comes with everything it needs to run except the drivers of course.
You should always check the Web site of the manufacturer for drivers that are available for the version of Windows that you are installing.

Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Hi, as the title says I do a disc factory reinstal of backup for the first time. I have a few questions.
First of all, I need the disc because my current hard drive is a failure. (Not a SMART short self-test and.) And I wanted to know if the Dactory backup drive could be used on a new hard drive? That is mainly why I want to make the record.
Second, by original Image, this means that when I understand? As in, it'll be usable and such.
Thirdly, the bottom of AlienRespawn for factory return reinstal, it is said (as shown in this screenshot http://prntscr.com/432u15): Note: CD, Blue-ray, DL, XL. And all types of rewritable media are not supported.
What does it mean, exactly? What is this means that a DVD like this will work?
Or not?
Thanks in advance for reading.
Hello!
- Yes, you can use it on a different HARD disk.
- Yes, the image of the factory should have the OS, drivers and software pre-installed.
- No matter what recordable DVD or Blu - ray works, a regular CD or a DVD - RW will not.
For instructions, see this article.
I hope this helps!

I installed a different version/version of Windows and now the SDM does not work in "Update" mode
This can occur when some system that HP did not specifically tests with the model is installed and often happens with models and Windows Ultimate edition (or even 64-bit editions on some older models) before Windows 8 Ultimate.
Because SDM detects the new operating system, but it cannot match in the SDM catalog, he (SDM) will disable mode "Update." However, please note that you can still use SDM mode 'All products' to download your SoftPaqs by doing as follows (the Probook 4730 s is used as an example):- Press the "view all products" in the SDM toolbar
- If a dialog box warning that "no operating system have been selected, then skip to step.
- Press OK to close the dialog box.
- Check the «Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64 Edition»
- Click on the tab "language filter".
- 'English - International' is checked.
- Press the OK button.
- Now, expand the tree on the left side of the SDM application by selecting the following:
- HP Probook Notebook PC Series 4700
- HP Probook 4730 s Notebook PC
- Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Edition 64
- Check the box 'international - English.
- Press the button "find available SoftPaqs.
- After "things calm down", click on the button "See the last SoftPaqs" at the top right of the application of SDM.
The latest list of the Softpaqs for your model should now be displayed. We recommend that you download all listed SoftPaqs. This whole new way SoftPaqs are released for this model will appear on the top list titled "Available SoftPaqs" display.
To install a SoftPaq after downloading, do the SoftPaq to the ListView "Downloaded SoftPaqs" right click and select "install SoftPaq.
Important note: most SoftPaqs listed using the method above should apply to your model, but a small number of SoftPaqs might not be applicable to your model due to the offers of different material for your model. This means that not all listed SoftPaqs will install on your model and that is normal.

Hello
Can I install a version of windows 7 on a laptop with these specs:Intel@Celeron @ 530 processor(1.73 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 Cache)Mobile Inter @ Graphics Media accelerator X 3100512 MB DDR2Not all laptops have graphics cards that can be removed and replaced with a more recent map / better. If your laptop does not update the graphics card, instructions should be in your manual. You can also consult the web site of the manufacturer of the laptop computer that the information can be displayed there as well.
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X 3100: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) X 3100 is a (onboard) graphic chip on a mobile Intel 965GM chipset. It is the successor to the GMA 950 and has a fully programmable pipeline (fully supports the Aero Glass and DirectX 10 with latest drivers).

I bought a new computer dell laptop and you want to install windows 8 again. It came with Windows 8 Core with is the unique language of 64-bit
I downloaded the windows Upgrade Wizard 8.
Then I discovered my product key with keyfinder.
I ran the upgrade wizard then copied the product key and it shows the message - this product key cannot be used to install a version of windows 8
I ran windows Update and it allowed me to download the update, which means my Windows 8 is authentic then why I am not able to install windows 8.
I'll be able to install the kernel of windows 8 with Windows 8 iso pro?
Hello
Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.Windows 8 that came with your PC is OEM type license and is one you want to install the retail type license. Two licenses have different installation keys, so commercial version will not accept EM key and vice versa.In addition, Windows 8 Pro key is different from Windows 8 "Core" key. You may not use the button either. -
Windows Storage: what version of windows and updated to reflect later
Hello
I am very new to Windows storage space. I have a few questions:
1. what version of Windows is the best (only for storage purposes): 8.1 Windows Client, Windows Server R2 Windows Server 2012 Essentials 2012?
2. in the scenario that I have only 1 HDD now for this. My ultimate goal is to have a mirror put in place when I could buy another drive. Is it possible to go game now and add another disk to mirror later? Do I have to re - format the drive being installed with the new disk mirrored do? Any instructions somewhere?
Thank you
Bao.
This system, which is used for? Business with several users who connect or personal?
That would certainly answer your questions...
Personally, I still hope an array of material on all the rest. Just as software RAID could you create a mirror RAID with through previous editions of products 'professional or better' Windows - space storage is always based software. ;-)
With the help of Google:
https://www.Google.com/search?q=use+storage+spaces+to+create+mirrorProbably, that's what you're looking for (according to ISO how you asked, etc.):
http://www.howtogeek.com/109380/how-to-use-Windows-8s-storage-spaces-to-mirror-combine-drives/
... and...
http://helpdeskgeek.com/Windows-8/create-RAID-like-data-backup-using-storage-spaces-Windows-8/
Not to complicate things. It is really as easy as adding the physical drive and selecting the one-way glass, given what you have so far.
Of course - backups should always be verified (image of the system if possible) before doing anything. While you might lose data by READING this for various reasons - you increase the risk when you start to play with the data in real time. ;-)
