My hard drive died. A new hard drive has Windows 7 preloaded?

Hello world

I have a laptop HP G62-225DX with Windows 7. My hard drive died. I think to buy a new one. A new hard drive for HP already installed Windows 7, or I have to buy Windows again?

Hello

A new HARD drive will have no operating system - you'll need to use your set of recovery disks to install Windows 7 on disk.  The procedure is detailed in the document of HP here.

If not create you these discs or have lost them, you can order a replacement set using the link below - the cost varies a bit depending on where in the world you live, but they are generally inexpensive.

Order HP recovery disks.

If you have a problem with this link, order them directly from HP.

If you live in the United States, contact HP here.

If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

Kind regards

  • HD is dead on my Dell Inspiron XP SP3 transferred old 4Yr no external HD files. How to move files to my new computer which has Windows 7.

    I just bought a new Inspiron desktop computer that has Windows 7 on it. Many old computer files have been corrupted, however, I was able to save many audio, video, Real Player files, PDF and photo.  I exported my FireFox bookmarks to HTML for the external hard drive.

    I can't understand how to transfer all the information from my external hard drive to the new computer with Windows 7. My level of computer knowledge is advanced beginner. I'm sorry to ask such a simple question I minor dyslexia. However the video, I look at all speaks to move from one computer to another and downloading transfer program.

    Also, I can't put music in my music files, however, once I know how to transfer to my new Win 7 computer where would I put my Real Player downloads, Favorites Fire Fox, so they find themselves in the right place. I tried the Itunes file to transfer from the external hard drive to the new computer where I had downloaded Itunes and it did not work.

    I appreciate any assistance.

    Thank you

    You can use the copy / paste command to copy your files from the external hard drive to the folders such as Documents, pictures, videos in Windows 7.

    When you copy and paste a file, you make a copy of the original file that you can then modify independently of the original file. If you copy and paste a file to a different location on your computer, it's a good idea to give it a different name, so that you'll remember which file is new and which file is the original.

    To copy and paste a file:

    1. Open the location that contains the file you want to copy.

    2. Right click on the file and then click on copy.

    3. Open the location where you want to store the copy.

    4. Right-click on an empty space within the location and then click on paste. The copy of the original file is now stored in the new location.

    5. Select multiple files or folders

      There are several ways to select multiple files or folders.

      • To select a consecutive group of files or folders, click the first item, press on and hold down the SHIFT key and then click the last item.

      • To select multiple files or folders that are near each other, drag the mouse pointer to create a selection around the outside of all the items you want to include.

      • To select nonconsecutive files and folders, press on and hold down the CTRL key and then click each item you want to select.

      • To select all files or folders in a window, the tool bar, click on organize, and then click Select all. If you want to exclude one or more items of your choice, press on and hold down the Ctrl key and then click on the items.

  • New XPS 8700 has Windows 8 loaded on the bad hard drive

    I just got a Dell XPS8700 SE with a 256 GB SSD and 2 TB Hard Drive.

    I got the 256 GB SSD to run all my programs and also to have windows load quickly to the SSD.

    I was under the impression that Windows 8 would be responsible to the SSD.

    Is this a mistake? Someone load Windows hard disk bad?

    Is it possible to load Windows on the SSD as I want and make the SSD my C drive and open the disc of 2 TB for my files?

    Thank you

    Ken

    I called Dell Support and the gentleman helped me to get Windows on the SSD and it seems that I am good to go.

    He has been a great help and walked me through the process.

  • Try to run a DOS program on my new computer which has Windows 7 installed on it.

    Our point of sale is a DOS based program.  He can run, must see what terminal number you use.  For this information, it looks like the AUTOEXEC. BAT file. I used to be able to access and modify the Autoexec. BAT file in Windows XP by running the command "SYSEDIT".  Windows 7 does not recognize "SYSEDIT" and I can't find a file AUTOEXEC. BAT file. Y at - there a way around this problem or a solution? Important to remember that this point of sale program is old, essential for us and is hard coded to look for the Autoexec. BAT file (everywhere where it used to find).  Thanks for the help.

  • HP 5600 Envy: I had to get a new laptop - it has Windows 7 and does not recognize my HP Envy 5600. Help!

    I just use the indications given on the support forum.  Error message was: "Printer not installed."  Not much to do!  My old laptop fell and broke, I got another one with Windows 7 too.  But it does not recognize my HP Envy 5600.  I have a wireless connection and a WiFi network in my house.  1 thing: it installs it as a scanner, but not a printer.  Please help me - it ' for 3 weeks and I can not print!

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help you with this!

  • I can INSTALL vista 64 bit on a new pc that has windows 7 on it I do NOT LIKE WINDOWS 7.

    It's vista HP I don't like windows 7.

    Hello ronnieegaston,

    You can install a copy of Vista on the PC provides the Vista drivers are available for the hardware on your PC. You will need to check the site of PC manufacturers to see if Vista drivers are available for all material.

    You also need a copy of Windows Vista retail as an OEM (original equipment Manufacturer) copy is related to the first PC it is installed on. In other words if you had a previous PC comes with a DVD of the Windows operating system you won't be able to install it on a new computer because the operating system is bound to this first machine.

    For the installation of information see this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/install_windows_vista.htm

  • I just bought a new computer.it has windows 7 64 bit operating system, it is good with the exception of my call of duty games running, they used to run very well on my windows vista 32 bit system, what is the problem?

    There are video games that are compatible with windows 7 64 bit operating systems?

    Hello Peter.

    Yes almost all games in 10 years works perfectly on 64-bit Windows.  What Call of Duty games are you having problems with?  If the first two, you might have to enter the video drivers for your graphics card/computer manufacturer as the first two required OpenGL which is not included with the drivers that Windows uses by default (this has been the case since at least Windows XP).

  • Upgrade to Windows 10 new disk when the Windows 7 hard drive does not

    I have a desktop HP with Windows 7 Pro and since last week, it will fail to start.   It seems that it is approaching, but everything does not end.    I would just buy a new SSD and upgrade to Windows 10.      I don't have Windows 7 installation floppies, but the license key is on the case of the office.      What are my options?   Hopefully I won't need to buy Windows because my hard drive has failed.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience and appreciate your interest for Windows 10.

    The license key of the operating system is integrated into the motherboard. To enable Windows 10 without facing any errors, you must activate the previous version of Windows with a valid license key, and then proceed to the upgrade.

    If you replace the SSD HARD drive, you must activate the previous Windows, i.e. Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 version, if it is a true copy as well as the activation key and then upgrade to Windows 10.

    Since you do not have an installation disc, I suggest to create one by downloading the ISO image of Windows 7 on a CD or USB key and check if you are able to download the operating system.

    https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/home

    After downloading and installing Windows 7, upgrade to Windows media authoring tool10.

    Note: See the section on the use of the media creation tool from the link above for more information.
