However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • 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.

  • Installation of Windows service does not work after Windows Explorer 9 uninstalling and reinstall Explorer 8

    Installation of Windows service does not work after Explorer 9 uninstallation and reinstallation of 8.  I followed several suggestions on this forum, but still no luck.  I ran the SFC system twice, who told me he had corrupted files.  "Some have been repaired and some might not be."  I then went in the event viewer after a start to the top and he stated that the 'Adobe APM service' is not found.  Also the "hpqddsvc' and the 'gupdate' is not found.  He tries to install something every time I start, but he abandoned.  I checked whether the system is on and disabled.  It's on.  There are a lot of small problems, but my main concern is the Adobe program.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe, but still get an error message that the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. Other suggestions?

  • Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on this hardware

    I am trying to install Win 7 on a HP Pavilion dv6-7012tx laptop. He brings Win 7 by default. I installed win8 once. Now I can't reinstall win7 on laptop in May. He tried to install Windows 7, but when the computer restarts and tries to complete the installation, I get the following error: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on hardware of Cet_Ordinateur."

    My laptop configuration:

    Hard disk: 640 GB (SATA II)

    RAM: 6 GB DDR3

    Hello:

    If you use an ordinary W7 installation DVD and use no recovery disc, the most common cause of this error is the lack of SATA drivers.

    Download and extract these files on a usb flash drive. First file listed is for W7 64 bit.

    https://downloadcenter.Intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=23060&Keyword=Intel+Rapid+Storage+Technology+(Intel+RST) & lang = fra

    Plug the flash drive into your laptop and start your installation of W7 DVD.

    When you get to install it now click on that and click the option advanced player options.

    Then choose load a driver.  You should now see all the sata on your USB drivers.

    You can check a box and it will include the compatible sata driver to install.

    Proceed from there, and I hope that will install W7.

  • Windows 10 could not be installed-how remove this message from my first screen update?

    The deadline passed free installation. Everytime I open Windows Update (in Win7) I get no updates to accept or decline. Instead, I see a update initial screen that says "Windows 10 could not be installed."  How can I get rid of this message and feedback Windows Update for its normal operation and display, now that the thrust of Win10's past?

    I had the same problem. Go into the registry and remove the key from 'Dismantling' at the following location fixes the problem.

    Canadian technology has given me the help I needed to get Windows Update, run again, but remains a problem. Even after the download and installation of updates today, Windows Update always starts with "Windows 10 could not be installed" with the error 80004004-40019. Is it going to annoy my client forever or there at - there a way to reset Windows Update in order to start to show the previous screen of the remaining updates?

    And to make the situation quite clear, the client never asked for Windows 10. His anti-virus caused all coming to a sudden stop (long story), which was actually a good thing because Windows 10 could not settle via deceptive tactics of Microsoft. I manually uninstalled all updates of Windows 10.

    Suggest:

    1. Install the GWX Control Panel and use it to stop the thing Win10
    2. Set Windows Update to NEVER, and then you take responsibility and control to manage the process.
