  Windows 7 license is a commercial license complete? If this isn't the case, you can transfer it to the new office. OEM licenses have no transfer rights.

  If it is a retail license. First, install Windows 7 on the new desktop, remain offline, do not enable.

• License of Windows of my OLD Hardisk to a NEW hard drive on the same computer

  I have a computer that came with a Vista 32 bit OEM base HP and I upgraded to the retail of Windows 7 Home Premium on my old 320 GB hard drive.

  Extra: I accidentally deleted my Partition Recovery Vista provided by HP.  Now, I have more ways to recover Vista (including OS DVD Media Kit).

  So I think the upgrade from my old hard drive on a NEW 1 TB hard drive 320.

  However, I am a bit worried if Windows would allow me to activate if I install the Windows 7 Home Premium on the NEW 1 TB hard drive.

  He is still active? If it does not turn on, all the solutions to fix it?

  Bonus: I have Windows 7 Home Premium Disc

• Presario CQ61-110SL: upgrade for laptop Presario CQ61-110SL from XP to Windows 7 with new SSD EVO 840

  In fact on Presario CQ61-110SLI I have XP installed the Vista of origin instead.

  Now I want to upgrade to Windows 7 and contestually get a new SSD Samsung 840 rather original EVO... What is the correct procedure?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

  There is no procedure to upgrade from XP to Win 7, it would be clean installation.

  1. place the SSD drive in the machine instead of the HARD disk

  2. start the installation of Win 7 disc to install Win 7 (best x 64 edition)

  3 install the drivers of the machine, you can download from >here<

  Windows 7 is optimized to work with SSD, there will be no problem.

  If you have important data on your old HDD, you can either save it before (on external support, USB key, Cloud solution, etc.)  or after it (via a USB cable plugged into the laptop as external drive). This is also an option to transfer data.

  Please, let me know if you have any other questions. Happy holidays!

• Recovery of Windows 7 with new HARD drive

  Hello Forum

  If you guys helped me with the HARD 'bankrupt' drive - and I have a new drive HARD ready to install.
  But I need to back up the operating system (Windows 7).

  I don't have an external hard drive PC configured.
  I have the DVD. I have a memory stick (empty - but unknown to memory capacity).
  There is little data to be transferred (and to be honest - if it was over it would not be the end of the world).

  So I just need to back up the operating system.
  I went in the 'create a back-up' then 'create a system image '.
  But (and I may be wrong here) it seems that if she needs a greater memory than the DVD I inserted.

  The indices here folks?

  And - waaaay out of my comfort zone. So any help is appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Helpless dad.

  > I went in the 'create a back-up' then 'create a system image '.
  This has nothing to do with the picture Toshiba Recovery and recovery disc. There is option of Windows.

  If I have the right of you you want to create DVDs that you can use to clean the OS recovery installation of recovery. How it can be done is described in the document s user manuals.

  Anyway, recovery media can be created using preinstalled Toshiba Recovery disk creator tool.

  Check it out please
  By the way: has your laptop at the moment factory settings?

• No DVD in OS Windows 8 with new HP Pav G6

  Just taken delivery on my new laptop. There is no Windows 8 DVD with it. What happens if I need to reinstall the OS 3 or 4 years later, for example, in the case of hard disk failure?

  Hello

  You are welcome.

  You can create 1 set of recovery disks (it comes to comply with the terms of the Microsoft oem license), it is always possible to order a set of replacement of HP discs if you lose the.

  However, my personal suggestion would simply create a copy of the defined recovery disk.

  You can use the following method.

  Download and install the free software ImgBurn.    ( Note: you can deselect additional software during installation of ImgBurn options).

  Then for each disk:

  Create a disc Image of the DVD on your PC - a guide for doing this is here.

  Write this disc to a blank DVD disc Image - a guide to it's here.

  (You could also save a copy of each file ISO just to be absolutely sure).

  Kind regards

  It's probably the issue of the media descriptor byte. Read here:

  Format the same number of different disks on your machine and take
  them and the 'old' you want to read to a computer running an old
  version of Windows. Copy them into your newly formatted diskettes and bring
  return to your computer, when they should be readable.

• Installation of Windows 7 with new HD failure

  Background information:

  Just bought a new WD 1 b HD for my laptop Latitude E6510. Has decided to install Windows 7 64 bit version at the same time.

  Problem:

  I get about 3/4 the way through the installation and "Complete the Installation" (where system restarts normally several times)... the screen blinks several times, and then restart. Loading Windows comes up and then a mistake with this message, "installation of Windows could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer." I click ok, the system reboots, I get a "Setup is starting Services", then the same error once again!

  I try to come back just to recharge my 32-bit version of Windows 7 and I get the same error.

  Aid or reflections on this issue, would be greatly appreciated.

  Load the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver F6Flpy SATA driver during installation. You can get one from Dell drivers and downloads directly to your model or go directly to Intel:

• Removal of the windows on an old boot drive folders

  Hello Microsoft forums,.

  so I recently got an SSD and installed my copy of Windows on it. My old HDD is now high school and still has my old Windows, such as Program Files, Program Files (x 86) folders, users, Windows, etc. I would like to remove this to clean the drive a little (I'm a little OCD on the Organization of the files), but I still have a lot of data in separate folders, so I can't just do a reformat from there. Whenever I try to delete it, I get the message 'you must. authorized to perform this action You need permission from TrustedInstaller to make changes to this file", I guess, because he had an installation of Windows and, therefore, a user admin separately on this drive. There is no option to give me permission and I can't seem to change the permissions in the properties without worrying. Any ideas? There is not enough room on my SSD to copy on all my data and then reformat or I could do this.
  Thank you
  Azdur

  Well, if you insist all is supported, take ownership of files and delete

  Or preferably to copy your data, files, outdoors, and then in disk management to delete all partitions on that drive, then partition/format

• 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.

• Using Time Machine or the Migration Assistant to transfer information from and old Mac to a new one

  I had to think about upgrading a Macbook Air to a Macbook Pro and have done research on how pretty much everything (files, account icloud, etc.) to move to a new computer so I know how to do it when the time comes. I didn't save my current computer at the time I got it and didn't know whether it was necessary to do it before the transfer. Also, I found two different ways to move information from one mac to another, one way being using the migration wizard, the other via the time machine. The problem is that I've never used time machine (I checked my settings and it is turned off). I was curious to know which option would be the 'best' way and if not never back up my computer would be a problem. (If its possible, could someone also please explain how to back up my computer?)

  Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward I hope to get a reply soon!

  I use Time Machine often (and have used since its introduction).  I also upgraded my Mac hardware quite often (about every 18 months).  Whenever I move to a new machine, I use the Migration Wizard (and not Time Machine).  I've never had a problem.

  Then I suggest that you need not Time machine specifically in order to change computers.  However, you really need to keep backups simply because the material is not, and without a backup, you are subject to lose everything you have on your computer.

  The OEM of Windows 8.0/8.1 license is related to the motherboard and not the hard drive, so you can reuse the new hard disk provided his will in the same computer.

  About the old drive you need not to worry about the formatting as the old disk can never be reused. If you want to be sure, you can physically break the old disk with a hammer before throwing.

• With the help of Windows Easy Transfer - need to transfer the old HARD drive to new computer - old HDD attached as external drive for the new usb port of the computer - help

  New computer installed Windows 7 and gave me an option to use Windows easy transfer to transfer files, data, programs, etc. from my old computer.  All I have from the old computer's hard drive; a lightning strike fried either food or his mother by car.  I have attached the hard as a disk to the new computer using the usb cable provided with the external hard drive case.  It is recognized as drive E: on the new computer.

  Trying to follow the instructions given by the Windows Easy Transfer software.  Get the software/folder from the old hard drive (drive E), but trying to run the software that I can't seem to do anything on the old disk.  When asked what is the former or the new computer - I respond to old, but no new file is created for the transfer.  When I answer again, a new file is created on the new computer (rather than the old HDD) and then he transferred again to new.  I can't create a file of whatever it is I want to transfer from the old HDD.

  I can't use an easy transfer cable because the old computer does not only the hard drive.  I can't connect to a network for the same reason.  I only have the hard that I can attach to the new computer.  But I can't get the new computer to process the old hard drive separately for transfer purposes.  The only other option I can think of is to attach the old HDD to another computer, and then try to run the software in this way, but I don't want just the stuff on the old hard drive a copy to the other computer.

  Can anyone help?  Suggest how to get the old hard drive files, data, transferred etc. to the new computer.  What are the steps?

  Thank you.

  Do yourself a favor, with the old drive connected externally, in the browser, simply copy the data files to the location of Documents of the PC win7. You can not copy programs, they need to be reinstalled from media origonal. You can copy all the downloaded files instalation
