Preferred Windows - USB or disc?

• Windows USB hard disc

  Hello

  I currently have a 15 GB Windows 2008 VM that binds to an Oracle database on a physical server. We need to move data from another system on the Oracle server via the virtual WIndows machine. So far, we have exported the 60GB of data from the other system on a USB hard drive. I now need to be able to see the hard drive OF the virtual computer in order to read the data (using tools on virtual machine) in the Oracle database.

  Can anyone tell if this is possible or if there is a better way to do this?

  Thank you

  How to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  There are a few options for you to consider.

  Create recovery media - Windows 7.

  2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• ProBook 4740S comes with Windows 8 install disc or not?

  Hello

  I bought my dad a HP Probook 4740 S nearly 2 years ago. I remember when I bought, the description says that Windows 8 but only Windows 7 preinstalled. Now, I would like to upgrade to win 8 but can not find the disc.

  I googled a bit, but unfortunately all resources referring to a Windows 8 media disc which I can't find.

  I find that a blue sticker says windows 8 at the back of the laptop, which let me think it may come with the right to move to 8 for free...

  Please let me know if there is a way to recover the product key / free upgrade to 8 with this laptop.

  Thank you very much

  Jason

  You are the very welcome, Jason.

  Normally, it's on a white sticker on the bottom of the laptop.

  Remove the battery and look under there too.

  If you don't, then it will appear in the system information window in the BIOS.

• Caught a virus. Want to just erase the HD and reinstall. Cannot get Windows original XP discs do. Help?

  Click son on some site that I can download a Trojan horse.  Disabled Malwarebytes and AVG update did not find. Saved that I need and now want to erase the hd and reinstall.  Cannot get computer to read what whatsoever. I myself once in safe mode, but now it tells me that it cannot find a hard disk.  I can refer to boot from the CD drive, but it gives me a blue screen error "cannot find a hard disk. Any help?

  Your computer most likely has SATA drive and the Windows XP installation disc does not include the SATA controller drivers so Setup can not 'see' the hard drive.  You have several options:

  1. to detect the drive, you must use the F6 method to provide the drivers of controller for the installation program, note that when you use the F6 method, the pilots MUST be provided on a diskette, the installation program will not accept the drivers from other media sources.

  Adding third-party or updated during the installation of Windows driver
  Mass storage drivers and the Setup process

  2. you can integrate the drivers into your installation CD:

  3. you can go into the BIOS and change the SATA controller in IDE mode and the Windows Installer will be able to detect the drive.  Most of the BIOS have this option is available, if you don't you will need to use option 1 or 2 above.

  Windows XP disks are no longer manufactured or sold. You * may * be able to find a place with an old stock for sale, but it is not very likely. Close your only choice is to purchase a used copy somwhere (but I would avoid eBay, where any software you buy is probably hacked).
