• Windows 7 does not recognize the installation discs

  Hello

  I have a problem, and I don't know if there is a solution, but here goes.

  My laptop is a HP DV6-7029WM Windows 7, 64 bit.

  The hard drive was dead, and he was replaced last month.  I sent it to HP.  C is the hard drive, and was originally the recovery on D. Removable media were on E, and when I connected a USB stick or memory card reader it would on F.

  When I came back, hard drive was on C as it was originally, and there was no recovery drive D. D is now my removable media drive. When I put in a USB stick or a memory card reader, which is now on the E drive.

  After I bought this, I put the recovery on a USB key, but I've accidentally thrown out. (My mistake) So I ordered the installation diskettes after that I return my HP PC.  I had 2 DVD system recovery disks and an Application and a recovery DVD Drivery.

  I want to reinstall Windows back to the default settings. I put disc 1 (System Recovery DVD) and close.  I reboot and it goes directly to the office. I hear the whirring disc, but nothing happens.

  I go to the control panel > Recovery > advanced retrieval methods. I click on restart, and it loads files and then says DVD set, which I do. He told me that he does not recognize the installation disc.

  I googled this problem and found a poster on CNET that had the same problem as I do. Also, I can't do a system restore.  My problem is the same as this poster on CNET.  I can read DVDs and CDs.  Those that work very well.

  http://forums.CNET.com/7723-19411_102-568059/Windows-7-installation-disc-not-recognized/

  The files are on the DVD, because I see them.

  I don't know what to do. Should I send my PC back? Can I do to solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance.

• Install as administrator but not Windows 8 installation discs.

  Original title: Windows 8 without installation disks.

  I was given an HP Desktop running Windows 8. The person who gave me the computer disappeared since and it has been implemented as an administrator. I understand that I have to reinstall Windows 8 to change the admin myself, but I do not have Windows 8 discs. Help How do I create boot discs would be greatly appreciated. I also perform regular backups, but need to know how safely save all so nothing gets lost. Should I remove Windows 8 before I can reinstall it? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

• Me am XP license key do not have an installation disc. How to get a copy of the Setup disk?

  Recently, I bought an IBM Net Vista original case, a site auction like eBay, but for my country (Serbia). It came with a sticker with a windows XP Professional license print top (with all holograms too, so I think this is authentic). All components in this case are mine (MB, CPU, GPU, RAM...), and I don't have an original Win XP Pro Installation CD. Can I use this license number? If so, how to get a copy of the installation disc?

• Difference on the installation disc and computer product key

  Hello

  Why is the product key on the different installation for Windows 7 Ultimate disc from that on my computer that verifies a genuine copy was installed?  In other words, the product key on the installation disc has a combination of letters and numbers.  However, the product key on my computer that verifies that you have a genuine copy of Windows 7 Ultimate installed has only numbers.

  Thank you in advance.

  The product ID is never really entered into the computer, what you have on the label is a 24-bit coded version which decodes the installation process to form the product ID.

  If you have already built a system by entering the 25 character key, you will see a small break after entering the key. This is the decoding of the key system and then check the type of product with the version of the software being installed.

  Also, be aware that if your system is a large manufacturer and shipped with Windows preinstalled, then the encrypted key can not match the label. If you use a utility such as magic jellybean keyfinder on a system, it can retrieve this key encrypted in the registry. This key is different from the label, because all systems supplied by the manufacturer with a particular version of Windows will have the same key. This avoids having them to enter a key on all of the PCs they do individually and do not have to be authenticated on the line.

• Restore Vista after reformatting (without installation disc)

  I think I read every post on this subject and none seem to solve my problem.  I bought a PC with Vista 64 bit Ultimate and Enterprise Office 2007 eBay.  The two are allowed and I product identification number and keys for both.  NOR is come with the original software disks, but are a valid copy and I can update online.  The PC is not a "manufacturer" brand, but rather a white box PC.

  BUT... the Vista is an OEM version and I have no idea who apply for re - install the software, since there is no disc.  There is also no tag or sticker on your box with any OEM identification.

  AND... As I have not either the original disks of Office 2007, I don't know how to reinstall the SAME IF I can find a way to re - install the Vista.  I tried to order a copy of Microsoft's online backup and the process does not recognize my product key.   But the version IS known for the automatic software updates from Microsoft.

  I need to reformat my drive, re - install Vista Ultimate and (Let's hope) keep or re-install Office 2007.   I have a Vista Home Premium 64-bit disk I bought directly from Microsoft that I use from another PC I have.

• My computer won't let me not reinstall windows because he thinks that it is 32-bit and does not recognize the installation discs. Help please?

  My computer has not worked since I stopped him during an automatic update. Which I have been kicking myself since then, but the last time that he updated, he beat the computer and I panicked.

  Anyway, it won't run certain programs, including iTunes and a large part of MS Office, and no matter how many times I try to reinstall, they still do not work, saying: "side by side configuration is incorrect."

  What I want is to restore it to factory settings - all my data is secured and sustained upward. But when I put in my recovery disks (and they are the highest boot priority in the BIOS) the system takes care of the hard drive as usual. When I remove the ability to boot from the hard drive, my system no reserves at all, telling me to restart or insert a suitable disc. And when I boot from the disk and try to run it manually, by clicking ETFSBOOT, it tells me that "the version of this file is not this version of the file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are using. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need a x 86 (32 bit) or an x 64 (64-bit) version of the program. »

  I have double and triple checked this - my system is 64-bit. My records are 64-bit. As far as I know, the computer got garbled during the automatic update and now part of it think it's 32-bit (some programs are divided into sections 32-bit and 64-bit). All I want to do is to reinstall windows, but I don't know what to do because it does not recognize my discs! Any suggestions, internet?

  Thank you very much.

  In addition, if it is relevant, I'm Windows Vista on an ASUS K50IJ laptop. I do not have the windows install disc because the computer was shipped with windows installed, but I have the recovery disc ASUS (which have been used to restore my computer in the past).

  Hello

  Since you are unable to open programs like iTunes or Office, you can try to perform the system restore and check if it helps.

  Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

• Win7 Activation after PC reinstall, but the OEM installation disc has no product key

  My PC crashed a few weeks ago, so I reformatted and reinstalled using the Win7 Home Premium OEM DVD came with the PC when I bought it.  He tells me now that I need a product key to activate windows.  DVD installation Win7 & case has no product listed all over her key.

  The local manufacturer of PC I bought the PC (and Windows) to closed (almost I think) so there is no one there, I can ask product key.

  Any ideas how I can get my copy of active Windows?

  Its OK, I found my product key on a sticker on the PC.  Sorry for the wasted post.
