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

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.

By the way: has your laptop at the moment factory settings? -
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!

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:
See the Windows reinstallation Guide - clean install Windows 7 step 6 and 8 for more details:

never had a disc of windows vista with the new laptop and no option to make a recovery disk, and I need to format my laptop to factory / clean, help!
How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

I used to be able to open a new window (Ctrl + N) and it would 'only' to open a new window, which is what I wanted.
Now, when I open a new window, it opens a new window, but it does so with a new tab as well.
So if I type "Ctrl + N" for example, a new window AND a new tab when open. I close the tab every time now, because I wanted to only the new window.
Help, please.

The Magentic program does not work with newer versions of windows
Hello danielbrauer,
The magnetic site says the requirements are for Windows XP or higher. However, it is not on the Windows Vista or the Windows 7 Compatibility Center.
You can try the following to see if it will help with compatibility. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
Use the following steps:
(1) right click on the program
2) click Properties
3) click on the Compatibility tab
(4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-WindowsIf this does not help, you can contact the magnet to see if they have an updated version.
Sincerely,
Marilyn
