• Portege S100 - how to install XP on the new HARD drive?

  Hello

  I have a fatal error when I want to install Windows XP on a new 250 GB SATA HARD drive (more than the original 60 GB). I have RAID drivers but no "game"?

  Help a poor french user.
  Thank you

  Hello

  What RAID drivers did you use?

  Normally, you will need to download the RAID driver on Toshiba page and copy the files extracted to an external floppy drive. You can use an external floppy with USB drive. You can load the drivers if you press F6 once you have booted from Microsoft XP disc.

  By the way: have you checked BIOS if the HARD drive is recognized?

  My HARD drive is a failure by the SMART test.  I have already backed up everything and I bought an SSD to replace the HARD drive, if I use the DVD of reinstallation of Win7 which accompanies my Zino to install Win7 on my SSD?

  Thank you

  Hi Tim,.

  You can use the reinstallation disk that came the system to install Windows on the replacement hard drive. If you have created a recovery media you can use that as well to install Windows on the system.

  You can check the link http://dell.to/13nXHsM for the instructions on installing Windows 7. Once Windows is installed, please check the link http://dell.to/11fzwZM for the correct order of installation of the driver.

• How to install W7 on a new hard drive with an upgrade disc

  This issue was published and responded differently and I'm looking to help determine that I'm not just doing.

  I have a desktop dell Inspiron 540 initially installed with vista and upgraded to w7 with upgrade disk.  PC currently has a raid 0 on two drives configuration.  I want to do a clean install of w7 on a new 2 gig disk and remove my raid disk, so I unplugged my raid drives and plugged the new drive with the boot sequence set on DVD as priority to start.  When I put the drive of W7 the PC starts and begins installation of W7 and passes by a couple of reboots before it comes to rest on and the screen eventually white.  My questions are the following:

  (1) is the w7 stall out because it's only a upgrade disk.  I've read that even an upgrade disc must fill a system knowing that I finally needed to authenticate the license but this not yet get there.

  (2) or is the problem that none of the original pilot was loaded onto the new drive before trying to install w7?  I don't know if I have the disks just as the PC was rebuilt with new hardware warranty, so I don't know the Dell disks I have are no longer valid and if I install w7 without them.

  (3) if I do not have the right Dell driver disks is there a way to only install drivers without having to install as I prefer to do a clean vista w7 install.

  (4) when my pc normally starts in a raid 0 configuration and passes to the bios Setup screen, there will be an another intel matrix storage screen which is where I need to enter CTRL + I to enter the raid configuration...  After that I disconnected my original discs and installed a new this screen intel never presented itself - is that because I have not installed the drivers from dell?

  (5) others have suggested that I should keep the original discs in place for now, install my new hard drive, install W7 on the new drive and then delete older readers.  However, if I do and if Miss me the physical disks, if I remove the old drives, which allows W7 still starts it correctly once I deleted the old hard.

  THX,

  The disc itself is a full install of W7, it is key that defines as an upgrade and the normal solution to a blank disc is not enter key questioned at first, but to call the Activation Center later. That's because Windows 7 is a completely new system and use nothing of Vista/XP even if the upgrade should be complete.

  If the system restarts once again successfully during the installation, then it booted from the HARD disk as the installation tasks are all made from there. As JW suggests to test the HARD drive, most manufacturers offer on their website diagnostic utilities that are in the CD or bootable USB format then not dependent on the installed o/s. In addition, a contender is memeory questions, either swap autour, replace or reduce the system to a stick to eliminate the problems.

  Make sure RAID mode has been disabled in the BIOS for Windows 7 AHCI or SATA mode should work well when a single drive is equipped with RAID should disable auto. The keys Ctrl + I is a precursor of the o/s drivers so a function RAID BIOS Setup screen is not apply to it is not there. He disappeared because there is a single disc and you can't build a matrix on a single disc.

  All compatible motherboards in PC today have all the installation of Windows 7 no driver needed. They are normally added after the initial installation. If it's still a Dell Mobo, then the same driver drive should work as it will identify all required driver.

• Very sick hard drive in, how to re - install CS6 on a new hard drive?

  Hello everyone, (and sorry for my bad English: I'm a woman in french)

  In fact, I have two problems:

  I bought a CS6 on December 2013 20; On me I was allowed to activate CS6 on two computers. I only put in a computer, but the hard drive of this computer is very sick today. I raised probabily will have to put a new hard drive in there. How can I transfer my first release of the first hard drive to the second?

  The second thing I wanted to ask you is this:

  We now have one of our girls who studies of design, and we want to give our second opportunity to activation, but the school wants CS6 is on a Mac. We have not bought the MAC yet, because we want to know: is it possible to exchange our able to activate PC against a possibility of activating MAC?

  Someone that could help us to all these things, is there somewhere? Is there somewhere a phone number where we can be knowledgeable?

  Even thank you in advance!

  Yes. You can disable the license from one computer and then activate on another.

• Pavilion p6230y: how to reinstall Windows on a new hard drive

  Hello

  Recently, I had a hard drive failure. The drive is about 7 years so I understand he lived a life busy for a long time, and I plan replace it. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make the recovery discs and I don't have a windows CD, because it is installed on the disk hard when I bought the computer. If I had to buy a new HARD drive, how would I reinstall Windows on it without re-purchase a copy? I was told there would be a product key on the chasis somewhere but I couldn't find the model and serial number for the bureau, nothing to do with Windows. I also searched HP website to see if I could order recovery disks, but this option is not visible anywhere. Help, please!

  Thank you, Alex.

  Alex, welcome to the forum.

  Unfortunately, because you did not the system recovery media when you bought the computer, you will need to buy a full copy of Windows 7.

  Here's a guide to help you try to order the HP discs.  However, I believe that it is very unlikely that they are always available from your computer is more than 7 years old.

• Hi I reinstalled my Win XP Home because the current drive was getting old. But I installed it on a new hard drive connected as "Slave" but now he can't start

  I have connected the new hardrive as a 'slave', re-installed my Win XP even & re-patched everything on it including SP3, programs & ups back-ups, but oh no! the new hard drive when it is plugged in as a 'master', it does not start!

  But with the old hard drive connected as long as 'master', I have the option of "dual boot".

  I guess because my new drive is not a reader of "system"? I can see that my old drive is listed as 'system '. How to make my other even without having to re - install all over again? Thank you!

  Hi Fishlipps,

  Thanks for posting. Most likely you see it as your boot.ini is located on a drive corresponding to your system on a different drive. The easy way to do this would be to reinstall or do a repair on the computer installation. Please make a backup before attempting this.

  1.	When the message Press any key to boot from the CD appears on your screen, press a key to start your computer from the Windows XP CD.
  2.	When you see the message to install Windows XP nowand then press ENTER is displayed on the Welcome to the Setup screen, press ENTER.
  3.	Do not choose the option to press R to use the Recovery Console.
  4.	In the Windows XP licensing agreement, press F8 to accept the license agreement.
  5.	Make sure that your current installation of Windows XP is selected in the box, and then press R to repair Windows XP.
  6.	Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.

  Another option would be to modify the boot.ini located directly on the root of your drive. Below is a knockout with instructions on how to do it. However please backup all your data by doing one of them because both can make your computer unbootable.

• How to reinstall Vista on a new hard drive in a HP Pavilion dv6-1128tx Entertainment Notebook PC

  Original title: ok, so I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1128tx Entertainment Notebook PC

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1128tx Entertainment Notebook PC right... and my hard drive crashed just completely, I had a new hard drive and now I want again to install windows Vista on it, but I don't have a restore cd but I have a back on my old operating system... What can I do? Help?

  is there anyway that I can restore my operating system...?

  Hello

  What do you mean by: "I have a return upwards on my old operating system?"

  You make an image and with what program?

  If this is not a picture read more.

  Contact HP and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
