I too have a problem installing windows error1601. I went through the steps to get services and found that this installer of windows is gone. How can I get that back?
Try to run the Windows Installer Cleanup http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/Windows-Installer-CleanUp-Utility.shtml utility to see if that solves the problems with windows install.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Problem installing Windows 7 on Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 665D817
Hello
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 13 665D817 without an operating system and be able to install Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (msdnaa version). I actually had the Thinkpad even before and managed to install Windows 7 withouth any problems.
After starting from the USB stick during installation without hard drive is located. To this end, I insert a second usb key with drivers for AMD AHCI Controller Device Driver for Windows 7 and select the directory of win7 64 bit. A driver to install is offered, but after installing it, it seems as if nothing happened. No disk is detected, and I can't continue the installation.
thx for the help
(by the way, the proposed here spell check does not recognize "Lenovo" - * lol *)
I saw this happen occasionally during installation via the USB port. In my experience, it is when a USB 3.0 or eSATA/USB combo port is present. It does not occur if start you it from a Windows existing, nor happens during the installation of optical media.
There is something that includes ImageX that you can use to install Windows, but that gets a little complicated.

Problem installing Windows XP Mode in 7 Winjdows
I have a problem installing Windows XP Mode in Windows 7 Pro 64 running on a Dell Latitude E6510 laptop with an i5 processor and 8 GB of ram. This machine supports hardware virtualization, and it is enabled in the BIOS.
Before downloading software in XP Mode, the MS download required Windows validation Web site. Downloaded and reported validation validation and a successful installation. Then I downloaded Windows XP Mode (WindowsXPMode_en - us.exe, 481 052 KB) installation package and the package of Windows Virtual PC (Windows6 1 - KB958559 - x 64 - RefreshPkg.msu, 16 692-Ko). Then, I installed Windows XP Mode; the installation ran without any problems apparent and reported success.According to the docs of download site, the next step is to: "... click on the Windows 7 start button , and then select all programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin the installation."My problem is Windows Virtual PC does not appear anywhere in the selection of all programs list - believe me, I looked. There is, however, a new directory calledc:\ProgramFiles\Windows XP Mode\but it contains no exe file. It contains a file of 1.2 GB called Windows XP Mode base.vhd - but it is not clear what to do with it. There is also a tutorial subdirectory.I tried to reinstall Windows XP Mode (without uninstalling first) but I just get a warning message that the program is already installed. Windows XP Mode appears on the list "Uninstall or change a program" in the module programs and features in Control Panel.I tried running (Windows6. 1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu(Windows6.1-KB958559-x64-RefreshPkg.msu, goal that throws error 0x8007000d, "The data is invalid."If at this point, my question is simple, "what to try next?Thanks in advance.The right way to install Windows XP Mode, you must first install Windows Virtual PC, and then install Windows XP Mode.
You must install both files:
1 Windows6. 1 - KB958559 - x 64 or x 86 architecture that you run
Restart the system, and then install:
2 WindowsXPMode_en-we
------------

Click Start, type: programs and features
Press enter on your keyboard
Scroll down
Select Windows XP Mode
Click Change/uninstall in the command bar

Original title: installation of Windows 8.
If you bought a laptop and you want to install Windows 8 Professional, can install you it directly or you must have a base like Windows 7 Stater license?
Hello
The only FULL of Windows 8 Pro version would be the OEM System Builder... everything else is an upgrade...
Unlike Win 7 and earlier versions, Microsoft is not offering one COMPLETE Win 8 other than OEM package...
The difference is that the OEM version has no support from Microsoft... If you have a problem, you are on your own... Just enjoy the Forums and for any issues that arise...
Providing that there are drivers available for your laptop to win 8, it should work...

I have Vista Home Premium sp2 and you want to install Windows Defender, but however Gets the 08x800106ba error message.
Where should I go from hereHello
You cannot install Defender in Vista; It is already part of the Vista operating system.
Read about Defender:
If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.
There is nothing to worry.
Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
If you are using one of the above AntiVirus programs, this Information from David O - Support Engineer shows you how to manually enable Windows Defender (disregard information from uninstalling; not possible in Vista):
"Go to start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Look for Windows Defender.
Right click and select Properties , ensure that Startup Type is automatic.
Once modified, click apply and OK.
Quit and restart your computer. Check the back take the same path to confirm that Windows Defender has started"
.
If you want to have additional protection against malware using the version FREE of Malwarebytes AntiMalware:
http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
And for now, change startup Vista programs without using Defender, use one of these methods:
"How to use MSCONFIG in Windows Vista"
http://netsquirrel.com/Msconfig/msconfig_vista.html
Or the program Autoruns for FREE:
"V11.21 Autoruns for Windows"

The key to Windows inlegible sticker, want to reinstall windows
What can I do if I can't read that the key is for Windows because of the part of the key on the sticker has rubbed off and must be re-installed Windows? The product ID is located under the control panel > system maintenance > system > Windows Activation of a useful? I don't want to end up with a Clipboard after that reinstalling Windows because I have a legitimate copy of Windows, but the key became disfigured over time, since it's on the bottom of the laptop. I have Windows Vista Home Premium SP 2 running on a Dell Inspiron it's way outside the guarantee of its window.Thank you!Hello
If you have a product key on a sticker in your computer, this means that you have an OEM product key. If you have OEM keys, this means that the windows you have here is preinstalled.
If you reinstall windows OEM copy, you must use either the original manufacturer recovery disk or the recovery partition. If you use one of the people, should not be put to any start-up because the windows OEM versions are technically preactivated.
If you don't have a disc or a recovery partition, you can contact your OEM (DELL) so that they can send you a disk. Alternatively, you can contact Microsoft Support just in case. : D

I am currently running Windows Vista 32-bit, and I try to install Windows Vista 64 bit, but I get an error message saying "Setup cannot run this version of the operating system." To install Windows please try to boot from the installation media. "How can I do this? I got 64-bit on my computer before then, how this can be solved?
It seems that you insert the drive while Windows is running.
You will need to boot from the DVD, make sure that the order of startup in the BIOS is set to boot from the DVD drive first.

Please help me I have looked everywhere 4 ideas
Hello codeacer101, according to the specifications on the model of the system that you list, p6512uk, this system was delivered with Windows 7 and is only around the age of six months.
Here is the link to the specifications for the system that you listed. Because this system was delivered with Windows 7, there appear to be no support for Windows XP. You need the Windows XP drivers for all hardware on the system, and I'm not sure you can locate these old Windows XP drivers for this new system.
