Put the new upgrade of Windows 10 on my 500 gig SSD and make the main drive (C :)

Original title: Windows 10

You want to install (upgrade) new Windows 7 Pro 64) Windows 10.  No problem.

Here's my question and need help.  I want to put the upgrade of Windows new 10 on my 500 gig SSD and make the main drive (C :)  Just got new PC and the SSD is not yet installed in the new machine.

Is there a way to do this?  I can install the SSD drive in the pc without problems.  But the pc is set up with the C: drive in the primary.  As I understand it, the update will work, but it will not be for the SSD.

Suggestions?  Is this possible?

Windows 7 installation will have to be eliminated if its currently on a separate disk. Which means you have to start over.

I would first disconnect the hard drive with your Windows 7 installation.

Install the SSD drive, then install Windows Pro 10 on this subject.

Demarrer start from the installation media, and then select the SSD during installation:

Reconnect the hard drive, then format the installation hard disk.

Option to consider:

Create an image of the installation of Windows 7 system restore it on SSD, and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  • put the HARD drive in the optical drive stock

    Hi all

    I'm sorry if this is redundant, but I couldn't find the answer to any where or through telephone Support from Lenovo.

    I received the W530 with stock 500 GB HARD drive, but I want to replace it with the Pro of 840 Samsung SSD and put the HARD drive in the optical drive. I just restore the image from HARD disc for my SSD orginal (now in the original HARD drive box).

    At first I thought that I just leave the HARD drive in the original Bay and use the optical drive for the SSD, but since I use the SSD for the OS, and I want to use the DVD player sometimes, I thought I should put the SSD in original HDD bay and the HARD disk in the optical drive.

    I'm sure I've read that a lot of people did it with success, but I do not know much about computers and have never done nothing wise hardwear. I tried to put the HARD drive in the caddy Newmode U.S. optical drive, but it wouldn't fit (the screw on the caddy heads are too big). I think it's because the HARD drive still has the metal casing on it. I am worried, however, that if I remove the caddy, it voids my warranty, and above all, I am wanting to make sure it is the correct and safe way to the stock HARD drive in the optical drive.

    I put the rails HARD original on the SSD drive rubber because it is in which Bay but you have no other rails to the HARD drive in the case of the optical drive, and I don't even think he would fit in.

    So, it's OK to remove the carriage on the stock of HARD drive and put it in the optical drive without any kind of rails or protection (but attach it to the optical drive with the supplied screws caddy)? I think that's what I have to do anyway with the SSd, if she had to go into the optical drive.

    I am also an upgrade of RAM, but the keyboard under the bottom access RAM screw is stripped, so I can't remove the original RAM (it is under keyboard) and use the optimal 0 and DIMM slot installation 1. Any ideas?

    Thanks for your time, and once again, sorry if this is very basic.

    Change hard drives and memory do not void the warranty.

    The DSS must be installed exactly as the original HARD drive was, with rails caddy and rubber.

    The HARD drive in DVD case must be inserted with the 4 screws with the caddy, nothing else.

    To remove the stripped screw, you must use the small (jeweller preference) needle clamp with extreme caution, or slowly drop the screw head to create a new location. The second option is more dangerous because it produces small deposits of metal. If you can't do it yourself, ajeweller could do this easily for you.

    Good luck!

  • New upgrade of Windows 7 using the upgrade disc

    Hello

    I have some annoying problems which suggests that I should reinstall W7.

    History:-Toshiba laptop purchased with Vista Home Premium includes a recovery disk. Upgrade to W7 Home Premium 32 bit (now in SP1) from a purchased upgrade disk. Everything is OK and all files etc works OK after using the easy transfer. Now, after 3 1/2 years in this State, the problems (which include backup, IE, blue screen, heavy CPU usage) worsen.

    So: - can I re - pass using the same upgrade disc in order not to destroy my files and settings, drivers, etc?

    I am aware that I could do a clean install using upgrade disk (that's the only option I found answers to the community) but things are not so bad as I want the agro to do at this point. My concern is that Qualification record cannot accept the same existing software with the same product key valid.

    All advice would be welcome.

    Thank you, David.

    Hello David,.

    Thank you for your response.

    When you repair Windows 7 or upgrade site, your programs will remain installed. Not to cause suffering.

    Note: I strongly recommend to back up all your important files and folders on an external storage device before performing any type of repair operating system or upgrade.

    Thank you

    Start by creating a recovery kit. See the following link for the procedure:

    HP computers - create a recovery Disk Image or save an Image recovery on a USB (Windows 8)
    Learn how to create recovery DVDs or to save a recovery image on a USB flash drive to restore all the original software, in the case of a computer problem major.

    Remove the 1 TB of HARD drive pre-installation and install 250 GB SSD. Use the recovery kit and perform the recovery of the system. See the following link for the procedure:

    HP computers - running a HP System Recovery (Windows 8)
    HP System Recovery allows to reinstall or restore a HP with Windows 8 computer to the way it was at a previous time.

    Then you can connect the 1 TB HARD drive as a data disc and use it.

  • New upgrade of Windows 10

    I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) on a Hp Pavilion PC (AMD Athlon II - CPU - RAM 4GM) manufactured in 2009.

    I would like to take advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10, but need to return to Windows 7, until an application I need is compatible with Windows 10.  Once the application is compatible with Win10, I want to upgrade again and stay on Win10.

    WILL I HAVE TO PAY A NEW TAX OF 10 WINDOWS LICENSE AT THIS TIME?

    WHAT ARE THE MECHANISMS INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS?

    The Meadow skipper

    Simply create a system image to install win - 7 before the upgrade,

    If you did not bother to do

    Create an image of the installation of win - 10 system and unplug and then roll back to 7.

    When the program is compatible to restore the system win-10 image, reinstall the program.

    Do the basics with an image utility reliable free system on a completely separate hard disk,

    Hello

    I agree with Akuma. You must take the HARD disk at 5400 RPM. It should be pretty fast and produces less heat. It is good for office and multimedia applications.

    I hope you enjoy with your new HARD drive. ;)

  • Can Tecra M9 - I put the HARD drive?

    I currently own a * Tecra M9 - 15I * (part PTM91E-04R03TEN No. - discontinued model).

    When I bought the laptop, it came with a 120 GB HARD drive. I am running Windows Vista Business which fills almost half of the hard drive. I want to upgrade the HARD drive because I think the upgrade to Windows 7.

    Is it possible to upgrade the HARD disk? If so, what are the compatible HARD drive options? If I do not change the HARD drive, this will affect the status of the guarantee of the laptop? for example, I currently have a 3 year warranty and the warranty upgrade HARD drive Toshiba?

    Hello!

    Of course you can upgrade the HARD drive on your laptop and this doesn t affect the warranty. HDD upgrade isn't complicated and so it can be done by the user.

    To swap the HARD drive, you need only remove the screws to the HARD drive Bay and remove the HARD disk cover. Then you can see the HARD drive and swap it.
    I don t know you, look in your user manual. You will find interesting information and photos on this topic.

    Theoretically, you can buy each HARD drive you want. On interface SATA there is no capacity limit.
    I have good experiences with Hitachi and Seagate hard drives.

    Good bye
