• Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware of this computer Installation error on the new hard drive

  Okay so if please bear with me and be patient.  I'm not tech savvy.  I know enough to be able to remove an old hard drive and put another one, but when there are errors, I don't know what to do.

  Here's the situation.

  I have a Dell Studio XPS with Windows 7 installed.  I started having these notifications that my hard drive could be a failure.  I tried everything that I could find to fix it without having to buy a new HARD drive without success.  The current system has a 1 TB Seagate hard drive.  I installed a memory additional bar thingie right after that I got the computer about 4 years ago.  (If someone tells me how to find the properties of real system, I post them if necessary).  Anyway, I bought a new WD 1 TB black disk hard to install before my old dies and loses all my photos and documents, etc...

  I took the old drive yesterday and installed the new hard drive.  I put back the case and turned on the machine.  I put in my Windows 7 installation disc.  He began installing Windows 7... It's completely past the initial screen where it says it to load it and the other... I had accepted the license agreement, but did not have to make a profile and do the work and the reader.  I hope all this makes sense.  Then it pops up this message "installing Windows could not set up Windows on hardware on this computer."  I couldn't figure out what to do from there.  I got the new drive and put the old one back to and here I am. I tried to find solutions to this problem, but I either don't can't make heads or tails out of the responses on the internet or the solution is not exactly my problem.

  Please help if you can!  And if you have any suggestions, please dumb them down so I can understand what to do.  I CAN do if loaded, you just have to not talk too irritable.  Laughing out loud

  Thank you in advance!

  Maybe not...

  The Windows installation is not happy about something, and since it gets at least started which is a good thing, but your installation problem can not really be with Windows - perhaps something about Dell hardware or your 1 TB HARD drive.

  I looked at your system and found this article that you can read to see if it sounds like your original question:

  Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware on this computer.

  http://www.Dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN293812/en

  Since Dell has written an article for help on this subject, it means they've met enough times to take the time to compose the article and put it on their WWW site (but, they say, it is a possible resolution).

  Could you take the issue in the Dell online community where experts hang out (especially your amber light).

  Another good place for support is www.bleepingcomputer.com where there is a similar topic as your question (except Vista) on a Dell and a new disk of 1 TB (also a Seagate) and Dell ideas did not work, but someone else has found a way to fix it:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/453378/installation-fails-to-complete-on-new-HDD/

  The bleepingcomputer for your error message search reveals other areas and people who have got things to work in different ways, then it is perhaps another place to look for ideas.

  If the installation still fails it would not hurt to do the BIOS setting and see if things are getting longer, and since you are going to write the current settings before proceeding with the adjustment you can always cancel the adjustment if things get worse.

• TouchSmart 600: windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer

  I had a Touchsmart 600-1120 Windows 7, don't know if it's 32-bit or 64-bit. I had to replace the hard drive and I bought a Seagate st2000dx001-1ns164 model. After installing the new drive, I used the recovery disks, but when the pc reboots I get the following message: "windows could not setup configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Are there new drivers I need to install and if so, where can I find the?

  Thank you.

  I suspect that the reason for the 2 TB drive vs the 750 GB drive that was there.  All of the recovery check the hardware on the PC which is used and rejects the hardware changes if it differs too.  I don't know a way around this limitation.  I suspect that a copy of Windows 7 retail install OK but then you have all the drivers, FOUND HERE.

  Another way would be to get a new 750 GB drive to replace the original failed drive.

  I could not install windows 7 because of this issue. I tried to load the drivers for the installation of RAID, it indicates the specified location does contain information about your hardware. Although I downloaded the driver from the website of intel (the link you provided).

  Maybe it's that I tried to install the driver from the hard drive?

  Please, give me the detailed step by step solution.

  Hello:

  Please see if it works for you...

  Download the drivers from this link below (first or second file listed - 32 or 64 bit depending on the case).

• Help to replace hard drives, when I tried to reinstall windows 7 Ultimate I get message that "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer.

  Nick Cannon

  If the installation fails again, it may be a hardware incompatibility problem. Go to the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor on the Microsoft website to see if your computer can run Windows 7.

  If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  This error occurs when I go to install an Air fortress .msi file.  It's a pop-up probably from Microsoft Windows XP.  I uninstalled McAfee Antivirus (Enterprise Edition and the tool of the EPO).  I still get the error.  Very frustrating.  Thank you for answering!

• Replacing hard drive, made restoration of the factory, get the message error "installing windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  OS = Windows 7

  Computer = Gateway FX6840
  Media = gateway recovery media
  Hard drive is set to AHCI in BIOS

  I started meeting with S.M.A.R.T. errors.

  I backed up my data.

  I replaced 1 TB Seagate original with a new 2 hard drive to Seagate Barracuda SATA STBD2000101. Computer is equipped also is from the factory... no additional or modified facilities.

  I tried to restore Windows 7 from the rescue of the disks created with the "Gateway Recovery Management"

  Windows copying files over, the machine restarts, it installs the devices, then it stops at the "installation program starts services" and a window opens with the message "windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer.

  I can't apply the Article ID: 2466753 because the process of restoration of the plant seems not provide an option to load a driver .

  Any help would be appreciated... Gateway is only interested to collect money.  They have no interest in serving the poor suckers who buy their products (computer is 2 years old so it is out of warranty).

  Thanks for the reply.

  Fortunately, I solved the problem myself (after 19 hours of stress).
  The problem is that the recent hard disk has something different that no longer ages and makes pre-service pack 1 (SP1 solves the problem) versions of Windows 7 incompatible. My set of recovery disks have been created the day I bought the computer, which had no windows updates installed at the time.

  There is an "easy solution" on the Microsoft support site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us

  Unfortunately, their method works only if you have a Windows 7 installation disc, which does most of the people who buy computers pre-built manufacturers. Essentially, the solution is to install SP1 from a disc when don't give you the possibility to load drivers during installation, an option that the gateway recovery disks.

  So I thought that, theoretically, if I use my recovery discs to get a clean install on a hard drive that works, then use windows update to get updated (or at least to get SP1), and then make a set of NEW recovery disks (using windows backup: start > all programs > maintenance > Backup and Restore), I should be able to use these discs to install the new hard disk.

  It worked.

  So for someone else who has this same problem with new hard disks, I hope that the above is easy to understand. If not, ask someone else more savvy and show them this thread. Do not forget that at the end to create new recovery disks, it will ask you if you also want to create a 'system' repair disc. DO THIS! This is the disk that you need to start from when you are ready to install.

  Also: If your new hard drive is bigger than the one that you have created the new recovery disks, the partition on your new hard drive (once everything is installed) will be the same size as the one that you have created the records on. You will need to use a kind of editor of score for re - size. I recommend Gnome Partition Editor. http://www.gparted.org

  Burn gparted Live CD and him, resize your partition, and you're done (google for more in-depth instructions).

  Thank you, theloungelizardK, for the offer on the ISO, but I don't need. :)
