Notice - the upgrade to Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

I am replacing the failed hard drive in my Presario V6305NR & considering the upgrade to 2 GB of Ram.  Should I try to reload Vista or can I switch to a new total installation of Windows 7?

If the upgrade to Windows 7 is feasible, how & what problems can be expected?

1-Yes, the next step I would try is remove the card and start once without him.

 

2 - Yes, there were numerous reports of failure wireless and/or the chip Nvidia dv graphics and v made two or three years before. Unfortunately, most of the people seems to result from the motherboard. There is even an American in effect now colony for many models (US). www.nvidiasettlement.com

  • G570 - How to reinstall Windows 7 after replacing a hard drive that crashed?

    Hi all

    I have a Lenovo G 570 and was very happy with it. Unfortunately, I had a hard drive crash (totally my bad, I dropped the laptop on the floor).

    In any case I had to change my drive hard because I got this message: "No bootable device - insert boot disk and press any key any." I have always this message with the new hard drive which makes sense since I have to reinstall Windows 7, but the problem is that I don't have a sticker with the product key

    Does this mean that the Windows product key is in the Bios? How can I get? Contact Lenovo to get a new product key and pay for it?

    A big thank you to the person who will be able to help me with this, can not wait to start to use my Lenovo again.

  • How to reinstall the upgrade of Windows 7 after replacing the hard drive

    I have a few problems and decided after many hours of nowhere to replace my hard drive, I am running Win7 installed via an upgrade disk, because it doesn't seem to be a startup disk (I want to run repair to try to recover the missing files / corrupted etc.) what I need to install Vista first and then use the upgrade disk?

    There are likely to be problems with activation etc as in the past, that a new hard drive has been regarded as the same license is installed on a different machine?

    * original title - hard drive replacement, Q on installation of Windows

    Thanks for both answers, but as I could not reinstall Vista due to the lack of drive & key - I put my system together myself have so do not the sticker supplied with the systems, pre-built, I moved twice since the departure of Vista installation, the disk may or may not be somewhere in this House.

    My solution was to take the opportunity to upgrade my CPU and add that extra RAM so bought a win7 disc at the same time (which I'll keep somewhere safe). Yes, I've probably lost money by doing it this way, but it's my money to waste.

    The end result is that the PC works well which is what matters in the end for me.

    Thanks again for the responses.

  • After replacing a hard drive

    I just replaced a hard drive on my pavilllion p6210f.  I need to know what to do next.  All I have is a 7 (64-bit) windows repair disc I made when I got the computer.  It did not come with any CD. What should I do next?

    You did just the repair disk or the recovery partion disk? The recovery partion disk should have 3 or 4 discs. Is where the installation discs are now, they are made from the recovery partition, saving money to have the discs are provided with all computers.  If this isn't the case, the only thing to do is go to drivers and support for your model page and hope they have the factory drives listed. You pay shipping.

  • Services Windows problems after cloning a HARD drive

    Hello

    I recently cloned my HARD for one SSD drive, using the SSD as my boot device. Since then, I was able to successfully access Windows services.

    For example, I've tried to expand a partition on my SSD and went to computer management. I got a message saying that it

    "cannot open log events on the computer service.

    I click OK and the computer management opens.

    Clicking on device management, I get a long enough message that appears that says

    'Disk management could not open Virtual Disk Service (VDS) [name of the hard drive]. This can occur if the remote computer does not support VDS, or if a connection cannot be established because it has been blocked by a firewall of Windows. For more information see on diagnose and correct this problem, see Troubleshooting Disk Management by using disk management. »

    I click OK and the message disappears.

    If I click on Services and Applications in the left pane I get WMI control and Services in the central pane.

    I double-click on Services, scroll down to virtual disk, double-click anywhere on the line, I get

    "Windows could not open the service of virtual disk for playback on the local computer. Error 1726 the remote procedure call failed. »

    My daughter's laptop hard drive died, so I replaced it. Now, she can't play the games she could play before. I can't find the recovery disks, but I never thought it would be a problem. I have Windows Vista install, I did without problem. The laptop is a CQ62-101TX. But the site of HP is not a real pack of drivers... Simply select those.

    So, even if the laptop works for things like browsing the web and Microsoft Office, he cannot read the games. Before the crash of the HD, she was able to play games of high intensity graphic (Sims 3 was his favorite). However, after installation, the game continues to say here that he cannot find a DirectX 9 c compatible graphics card. Manager displays the card as a generic VGA card. I tried to install the Radeon Mobility drivers, without effect.

    Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
