  • Have a computer dell laptop. replaced the hard drive; tried to install my Windows XP and my product key is not accepted. I was wondering why and how do to accomplish this task.

    My dell laptop had the hard drive replaced.  My son, who knows computers, installed the new hard drive.  Then he tried to install my Windows XP Professional software - when it came time to put the product key #, it was not accepted.  It's authentic.  The product key is: * removed *.

    There no mention of this issue in section outages or other information provided in the booklet provided.  Can you help me with this problem?

    The license key and product type must match (XP Home vs XP Pro;)  (and OEM license vs the retail license).  If it's a Dell computer and you get the product key from a sticker on the case, then there is likely a version of Windows XP OEM this product key.  If you install Windows XP from a retail installation disk, then the types of licenses will not match.  You will need to use the license that accompanies the retail installation disc or you will need to contact Dell for an OEM installation disc to go with the license on your sticker case.

  • I want to recover the data on the hard drive using a laptop as a hard drive.

    Original title: Using a laptop as a hard drive...

    On a MAC, I can plug my laptop into my office with a firewire port to access the hard drive on the laptop without the OS being ran on the laptop.  Windows Vista has such a thing?  If so, how do you go?  The hard drive on my Windows laptop fails and we want to try and recover the data, by hooking it to a desktop as shown above with the MACs.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    "There is no way to access the hard drive when there is no operating system and if the hard drive is connected terribly."

    However, you can remove the hard drive from the laptop and connect it to the office with a case of hard disk that comes with the USB cable.

  • How to transfer data from laptop to external hard drive?

    How to transfer data from laptop to external hard drive?

    my model is vgn-cr323.

    Thanks in advance

    Let me provide you with General information on how you can transfer data from your computer to an external drive.

    To transfer the data, plug the USB cable into the correct port. Usually, your computer will know that he has a new disc attached and a pop box up will warn you. It will scan to determine what to do with the new connection and your computer will assign a drive letter (for example, drive G: and so on.) This will allow you to transfer data to the external hard drive just like you would move files on your internal hard drive.

    Once you have the USB cable plugged into your computers port (and the other end plugs into the external drive) you can now start to save files you want on the external hard drive.

    Open the item (s) or folder (s) you want to transfer or save on your external hard drive. There are two ways to save external hard disk 1). If you have only one or two things to save, you can open each item, click on file / record under... and choose the letter/drive (for example, drive G corresponding to that of your external hard drive, click Save.) This he recorded on the external hard drive.

  • HP laptop - 15-g227wm: Hard Drive question, in need of a solution

    First of all, I don't know if the version of Windows running was of 32-bit or 64-bit.

    The laptop in question is my mother and randomly, he started to become unresponsive in the middle of the night.  She had not dropped it and only uses the laptop to surf the internet and play some Facebook games.

    I went to the start menu and asked the laptop to run diagnostic systems.  In two minutes, he told me that the disk check hard short DST was not, by giving the code 9SNJ3G-7MP84W-XD7WL1 - T 60, 703.

    As it is a hard drive problem, I hope that, at the very least, it will take replace the hard drive, if not buy another laptop.

    The problem is the following; the laptop was purchased at a Wal-Mart.  It was the display model they had, as it was the last one in stock, and Wal-Mart could not locate the box for the laptop at the time of purchase.  We have no user manual and no CD to reinstall Windows (the laptop had 8.1 the purchase, and we took advantage of the free for 10 update when it was available).

    Please let us know our best options.  Thank you for your time.

    Hello:

    While I can't tell you precisely what that code means, yes the the bottom line is the hard drive has suffered an accident and needs to be replaced.

    Initially, the PC came with 64-bit W8.1.  HP does not support this model for 32-bit operating systems.

    Here is the service manual for this model.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04886216

    Removing and replacing the drive hard in this model is a daunting task, but if you are up to it, see Chapter 6 for R & R procedures.

    If the laptop is still under warranty, you can get HP to replace the drive under warranty.

    If this isn't the case, you're on your own.

    You can order W8.1 recovery media for the laptop computer from the link below, or clean reinstall 10 64-bit windows on the new drive from the link below it (media creation tool).  You can clean install W10 for free, without a product key, given that the laptop was already legally upgraded to W10.

    Thus,.

    HP is able to get the product key with the serial number of the laptop?

    Or

    Can I get a recovery disk to reinstall Windows without needing a key?

    Thank you.

    recovery disk is an option that will include license certificates & register automatically.

    Another option is to use a tool that will load the oem certificate & series to your new installation, google help on mydigitallife.info.

  • Laptop support two hard drives

    Hello

    I am looking for a screen of 15.6 inches that supports two hard drives. Can someone point me to the laptop that support two hard disks? I'm more interested in HP Pavilion dv6t-7000 Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC but any would do the trick. I am also looking for the laptop to have the full HD screen.

    Thank you

    Sumit

    You can watch the DV7 if having two hard drives is important. The DV7 in laptop computers range has a 2nd HARD drive Bay, and I understand that the DV6, M6, G6, G7, and M7 have only 1 HARD drive Bay. If you buy a DV7 which is not customizable, or retailer, you can always install a 2nd HARD drive by buying the Parts HP hard drive hardware Kit and a HARD drive. HP has been portable computers shipping with Seagate hard drives, but WD, Western Digital, will also work. I recently updated my DV7-3165DX to 2 TB (1 TB WD Scorpio Blue SATA 2.5 in HDD + 1 TB WD Scorpio SATA 2.5 HARD drive in),

    Look at these DV7. The quad core seemed to be the same price when customized at the same level.

  • How to reinstall Vista on PC Toshiba laptop with new hard drive?

    Hard drive from my Toshiba laptop of sisters died as well as its internal fan and she asked me to fix it, well I got a new hard drive and replaced the dead with a new internal fan and works perfectly fine with a Linux Live CD. However, she had previously Vista Home Premium installed on it, and there was no installation CD, just 2 recovery discs. Now, I was wondering where I could get an iso image of vista UNACTIVATED so I can use his legitimate product for her key. (I also have a week to achieve and I repair to other computers as well, which are not a problem, so time is of the essence)

    Also, I have no money and can't afford to get a Best Buy installation CD, as the operating system has already been installed on the laptop/OEM computer. If that would be legal so getting an online and burning a black CD and use it to get Vista on this new hard drive of his?

    In addition, I know how to install its drivers, and upgrade from SP1 to SP2 via Windows Update Manager, all I need is a vista installation CD Home premium to get his computer upward and execution of how she wants to.

    I never said you had to buy a dvd installation anywhere in my answer

    I said that there is no free and legal download

    read all of my answer

    I advised you to start from the 1st recovery disk and if you have any problems contact toshiba at the link I suppied you with

    or follow the rest of my advice on borrowing a microsoft dvd vista and using your product key with him

    what he may not know is that microsoft vista dvd contains all versions of vista

    This is the product key that installs the correct version of the dvd

    There are 2 microsoft dvd vista a 32-bit and one for 64-bit operating system

    most of the computers unless asked when bought normally come with the version of vista 32 bit

    Hello
    I have a dell laptop l502 with a premium windows home instlled in hard drive 7. now I need to format the hard drive, but how can I keep my windows 7? is it possible to save or I loss my windows genuine?

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    This will allow that you reinstall Windows 7 while maintaining a true.

    Make sure that you back up your data before reinstalling:

  • How can I reinstall Windows 8 in my laptop if the hard drive broke down?

    I have a new laptop with windows 8 is installed (product key is embedded in the bios I think and no sticker license more on this subject).

    I just want to know

    1. How can I reinstall Windows 8 if the hard drive broke down

    and I don't have any medium of recovery and the warranty is expired

    2. is there any media can make me reinstall my windows 8?

    I know that windows 7 can.

    I'm looking for the key to the installation?

    I can in the future, faced with this situation. I hope someone can help me.

    Best regards

    I think most of the technicians know how to use a recovery partition, but the real problem for the recovery of Windows 8, it is each brand (oem) will need an installation disc for their particular model. We can install a Dell windows 7 cd on any PC OEM and after doing the updates, it will itself attest. With windows 8 you can even not windows to be installed on the PC if the disk you put in does not support security in the BIOS.  In other words, you need the proper (HP, Dell, etc.) model numbers version of Windows 8 recovery CD similarly be able to install it.
    If you are a system integrator or building a PC for yourself I think that the normal OEM cd should work as long as you you know number OEM KEY or product key. Its the BRAND PC which will be a pain in the buttocks in the future for technicians who have to reinstall Windows 8 on a VIRGIN hard drive AGAIN.
