Professional installation of Windows7 64 bit OS

I have 2 computers Compaq with Vista Home Basic or Premium installed as OEM

I want now to upgrade to Windows7 Professional 64 bit OS and find that it requires a "clean" installation

How can I run a clean install and maintain the unique system of partitioning and recovery Compaq?

Hope I can get the answer to this niggling question

Thank you

Brian

OK thanks for your comments... It is as I thought

I already made the new facility both of my computers and find the Compaq recovery partition has been deleted leaving me with a D: partition without data

In my view, is not an exercise of customer on part of HP to offer not a follow-up after the expiration of the warranty

I know I tried to get a response from HP and because computers are out of the warranty period they dod do not want to know

In my opinion, they should offer a consultation service at least

I opted for the 32-bit version I would have been able to improve and maintain the partitionsand all my files etc, but I thought that I would install W7 64-bit version on Desktop or laptop... maybe as I should be satisfied with the 32-bit version

At least I have a set of OEM recovery disks just in case I want to go back to the original

Regarding computers, that they are working correctly then maybe I am too picky, asking for the partitioning of Compaq

    Have installed a new HARD drive and do a clean install of Windows7 64 bit, most of the devices seem to work. I have 2 unknown devices in Device Manager, 1 is a mass storage device (assuming it's the card reader) and the other peripheral unknown just like shows (no idea what it is) can not find the drivers on the download page, also because I did a clean install lost all the utilities that is preinstalled on the machine.

    Try the following.

    First, uninstall Skype and when it is finished, restart the laptop.

  • Pavilion 17-f260nb: need drivers for Pavilion 17-f260nb for windows7 64-bit

    Hello again,

    I have a laptop of 17-f260nb Pavilion running windows7 64-bit.

    After borrow from someone I came with driver problems.

    I posted on this forum before last year, where wonderful people responded with links for the drivers, but the link no longer works.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-operating-system-and-recovery/Pavilion-17-f260nb-downgrade-win...

    Can someone point me to the drivers, I need to use?

    USB does not work at the moment, and I see these hardwareid missing drivers

    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_9CB1 & SUBSYS_2294103C & REV_03
    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_9CB1 & SUBSYS_2294103C
    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_9CB1 & CC_0C0330
    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_9CB1 & CC_0C03

    Could also someone point me to a driverpage for which I can use the chipset & other drivers as well?

    Thank you all for your support.

    Kind regards

    E.P.

    Hello:

    Here is the link for the usb driver, you must... Download, unzip and run the setup.exe file.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/download/22824/USB-3-0-driver-Intel-USB-3-0-Extensible-host-controller-driver-for-Intel-8-9-100-series-and-C220-C610-chipset-family?product=65855

    Now, as to why you couldn't find the drivers on your laptop support page...

    All the drivers, specifications and manuals are missing from pages support again.

    They have disappeared since Friday night.

    This happened earlier in the week also.

    Another Member of the forum has reported the problem to administrators forum, which will be in touch tour HP, but since I am not employed by, nor do I represent HP, I don't know how long it will take to restore the missing data to the support pages.

    If all goes well, now that it's Monday, HP is going to move to fixing the real problem soon.

    There is no W7 32 bit graphics drivers switchable configuration from anywhere.

    Your only choice if you want to properly run W7, is to install W7 x 64, and then you can use the drivers and software of the m6t-1000 except the BIOS and firmware files.

  • not able to uninstall Assistant support hp in hp pavilion g6 1301tx with windows7 64 bit os

    I have a little problem with my computer pavilion laptop g6 1301tx. I installed the new version of the hp support assistant in my lappy and it worked for a few days.

    One day, when I want to use assistant suport that it does not work and one assistant support window showing was arrested. So I tried to uninstall the software and I did it via Control Panel, he showed the uninstall is complete but the application is always present and it is not removed completely. Now I can't install hp support assistant.

    When I want to install it, again I am the guest below as crush or not?

    hp support assistant now not the list in the Control Panel then how to remove...

    Help me please...

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Unless you still have the installer, download the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - download links are to the bottom of the page - and Save the installer to your download folder.

    http://h18021.www1.HP.com/helpandsupport/HP-support-Assistant.html

    Then, if you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip.  Please note that If you have a 64-bit installation, download and install the Installer x 64 64-bit .msi on the link below.

    http://www.7-zip.org/

    Then, right click on the HPSA installer you download earlier, select Extract 7 - Zip, select the files, and then click Ok.  The newly extracted folder, right-click on UninstallHPSA and select "Run as Administrator" - you may well see no progress of this attempt uninstalling, then leave the laptop at idle for a good 10 minutes before restarting it.

    Open your download folder and delete the "record HPSA extracted" so you are just left with the original installer that you downloaded.

    Now run Microsoft 'Fixit' on the link below and use it to install the new version of HPSA.

  • I need to take Windows7 64 bit that came on my new computer, for Windows7 32 Bit

    I bought a new HP desktop computer that came with Windows7 64 bit. My software will not work with 64 bit. I need
    Windows7 32 bit. Help?

    Contact HP support. If you format the HARD drive and do a clean install of Win7 (x 86) on your own:

    1. you will not have very specific HP drivers, which depends on the laptop; and

    2. you will invalidate your warranty and Service contract has been purchased.

    The foregoing, I think you (or the one who tells you the application "will not work" under Windows 64-bit) are wrong. If it "works" in Win7 (x 86), it should work just as well in Win7 64-bit.

    However, you may need to 'usurp' IE7 User Agent strings so that the line (I guess) application "think" you're not under IE8. See http://www.enhanceie.com/ua.aspx or http://www.enhanceie.com/ietoys/uapick.asp

    Tip: Use 32 bit IE8 (IE7 User Agent spoofing channels), not IE8 64 bit, to access the online application.
