  What happened when you tried to install Xp with sp3? If you do not have the original for the computer that you use to install Windows?

  You can try to contact the manufacturer of the computer who may be able to provide the recovery disc. The disks are usually under $ 20.

  I am computer literate, not a computer scientist and have done a good amount of home working on logistics for the 2 drive configuration, but I hate surprises.

  Will it get the required specific drivers of HP before installation or the installation of Win 7 disk will take care of this for me?

  I have the system recovery discs, which are for Win Vista OS but I think that they only work for the original Vista installation.

  Thanks in advance

  Here's the original specifications for your desktop HP Pavilion Media Center m8517c. The HP recovery disks only returns the computer to a factory State... including Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit, drivers and HP provided software (BTW, recovery disks cannot install an SSD). If you want to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro, skip using the HP recovery discs.

  Some drivers may be installed by Windows 7, and you will need to download the remaining drivers from the manufacturers of different devices. Intel for chipset drivers Realtek for network and HD audio, NVIDIA for graphics drivers, pilots etc. If you have any questions, find the right drivers please post (text only) Windows Device Manager "Hardware ID" for all missing or unknown devices as shown in the example below.

• Can Windows 7 Pro install on Windows 8?

  Recently bought a new Dell computer.  To Windows 7 Pro installed but I was told that they cannot sell new units with Windows 8 is installed.  I understand that Windows 8 has no XP compatibility feature which has Windows 7 Pro.  If I install Windows 7 Pro on Windows 8?

  You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.

• New computer with Windows 7 Pro installed - also came with disks to Windows 8 Pro - what I lose everything?

  I recently bought a new computer. It was announced to come with Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8 Pro. Since the announcement, I assumed that it would be implemented for a dual-boot (something that I have never made or used it before).

  In another section of this community, I have posted a question, "what happens first – the chicken or the Egg," asking if I would like to transfer my data and applications before that upgrade to Windows 8 or after. I received responses almost half a dozen all recommend that I transferred my files prior to upgrade. With the new software of practice by hand and using a cable standard CAT5, I transferred all my files, including data and most of my applications, my old computer to the new computer. The transfer takes about six hours and I had about an hour of work later to install my pst, BOINC, Malwarebytes, etc..

  I decided that today would be the day and I would upgrade to Windows 8. There are three disks to:

  1. the claims & recovery of pilots

  2. system recovery disk for operating

  3 supplemental Recovery Disc

  However, when reading the attached brochure, there is a warning very clear that if I use these discs, I lose all my apps and data and will have to start from scratch. In many previous editions of Windows, I remember using upgrade disks. Recovery disks were what I did when I first installed the new computer.

  So, I ask, this is the only way I can achieve this? Am I condemned to throw seven hours of work? Y there is a place, less painful alternatives?

  Thank you

  Steve

  Unfortunately, this is how the work of recovery discs, they do not operate like retail disk that will give you the ability to dual boot.

  Your options are limited.

• Reinstalling operating system on the HP laptop which has Vista, Win 7 family Premium and Windows 7 Pro installed.

  I have a HP Pavilion 6500 CTO (?) vintage 2008 model.  It came with Vista Premium. It is the only time that I forgot to make a recovery disk, but there is a sort of drive partitioned D that could be disaster recovery.  Anyway. .. . . .

  I made one of the first Windows 7 Premium Upgrade downloads (I still have the right to download a backup).  I also bought 6 months later any when upgrading to Windows 7 Pro.

  I would like to donate this laptop to a member of the family, so I would like to start with a clean slate of the operating system and drivers of origin if the wireless hardware and other works.  Two Questions

  1. If I create a recovery disc in the current state of the computer to have Win 7 Pro loaded, format the hard drive and then try to reinstall the OS from the recovery disk, which will load OS - Vista or Win 7 Pro?

  2. see question 1 - it is the best way to offer a new beginning for the system with a reformat and reinstall OS, or is there a better solution?  As I said, I don't have a recovery for the Vista operating system disk.

  Thanks in advance,

  W!

  Cheryl: thank you.  I had to google "active partition" and found how how to change active partitions, but I did not know after you change the active partition this restart start RecovManager...  Uh, excuse the "duh" question, but I guess you can't have a SINGLE partition active at a time, correct?

  The question is a little more complicated.  When he restores the computer to the original state, it also roll back updates to the BIOS, or are those left intact? Why ask?  At the beginning, on this model of AMD, I had a fan / overheating issue that has been resolved by updating the bios to set when the fan on.  I might have to reinstall this update of the bios of HP!

  «mark the recovery partition as "active" and reboot, it will then start this partition and start the Recovery Manager»

  The bios will not be affected.

• Help the clean installation of Windows 7 Pro and using the GPO to run automatic updates and restart all night

  I am trying to solve a problem that will probably require a new installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The grace period ends in 3 days, and the next 30 days are final exams at the College. I have 2 licenses (and product key) of Windows 7 Pro, but my drive HARD goes wrong and I don't want to use MAK activation. I will be eventually to replace the disk, but is now bad timing.

  If a reinstall is needed, I was going to ask if anyone knows how to set the strategy of perhaps a GPO where Windows is updated automatically in the background and after installing updates, 45 or 60 minutes, then restart. The goal would be to have a computer fully patched when I wake up in the morning.

  This is my plan:

  Install Windows 7 Pro SP1 64 bit > Windows automatically updated and plug the Ethernet cable > define a GPO where the computer waiting for 45 to 60 minutes after installation of updates (so the msi may end in the background, and I do not interrupt the installation) > the PC will restart > more update swill be downloaded and installed > wait due to the policy of GPO before reboot > Reboot > do it until it's over. > wake up with a PC fully patched 7-9 hours later.

  Is this a workable plan?, and if so, how do I define policies such as delay restarting, etc. to achieve?

  The reset did not work. It would be a simple solution. I have a valid license, but I don't want to replace the HARD drive until after final exams are over, so I'll reinstall and activate. I try to achieve in the next 24 hours, so it doesn't keep me from my school work.  I must also support and will then replace my files.

  Feel free to advanced used terminology. I have some experience.

  Any help is greatly appreciated!

  Another question: should I install a security suite before all updates being installed more than 12 hours, or wait until later? What is the level of risk?

  Anyone used Ninite to automate the installation of other programs? Is how safe it?

  Thank you!
