Re-installation of Windows of the Gateway Laptop

I got a Gateway laptop to fix

It is riddled with viruses and malware.

Rather than trying to remove viruses and malware, I want to wipe and reinstall Windows

I have the license key on the laptop. But I don't have a disk for Windows 7 Home Premium.

How can I get a copy or what can I do else?

Windows 7 support is hard to find right now, you can ask a friend if she has a copy, or if your computer is too old, you can try windows 10 and use your product key to authenticate.

    Hello

    Well, Stefan has suggested that the recovery CD is corrupt, but for me it s does not erase if you used a recovery CD or the Microsoft Windows CD.
    What did you use?

    I think that the recovery CD should be corrupted and it works without any problem.
    You format the HARD drive correctly? Otherwise, do it first and delete all partitions and try reinstalling the operating system.

  • Installation upgrade memory in the new laptop (E8730w)

    I just got my new laptop and was dismayed to see that I obviously have to install the 2 GB memory upgrade that I ordered.  When I'm ready to install it, I will contact HP technical support.  I'm interested in the big picture right now.  The laptop has installed Windows Xp and Vista, stored on the hard drive.  No matter if I use the new laptop for, say, from the user's manual before as I have added additional memory, or is it better not to use the laptop until I have all of the memory (2 GB original and 2 GB upgrade) in place.  I hope that this process will be no more complicated than to install an ethernet card in a years office 5 or 6.  Where can I get good screwdriver to open the module compartment memory?  From my experience, it is easy band, the head of a screw phillips, especially a small head, if there is no appropriate screwdriver.  I'd appreciate any idea on these issues.

    I don't think that no matter how long you use it before you install the memory. Regarding the screwdriver, I use a 41678 artisan to work on laptops with screws Phillips. It could cost $ 1.69 at any Sears and any tech tools for perhaps $15 will be a very similar small Phillips. You will know if you are stripping it, so stop everything. Memory installation is much easier than to put a PCI on a desk. Relax its all good.

    Hi, Mary

    I'm using the Enterprise version that it froze during installation, so I waited around 9-10 Minutes still nothing
    so I started keys at random because I was waiting for a long time then restarted my PC and now I can't start my pc.

    >:-( >:-( >:-( >:-(

    Boot from the Windows 8 DVD or USB media that you created
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Non-accessible HARD drive is setup installation of Windows XP on my laptop

    Hello

    I have my 144TU Compaq Presario CQ40 (Intel C2D T5800, 160 GB of HDD, 2 GB of RAM).
    I have installed XP using a customized bootable XP to support SATA drivers using nLite.
    I use the same CD custom in this slot the entire post, so the problem of SATA not supported by XP is elimintated.
    I also setup a ubuntu installation I've ever used.
    I had a dual boot on my system with Windows XP Pro and Linux Ubuntu, last week I tried to delete the partitions of Ubuntu from Win XP computer management window. The system got hanged and I did a force close. When the computer reboots, the system hangs after a few minutes on the desktop. After several restarts (force) the OS is not boot at all. When I tried to do a formatting the OS drive and delete the Linux partitions using the XP bootable CD, the installation XP is unable to access the disk hard and don't show any of the logical drives as well as readers of Linux. The box which offers the list of the installed OS and their readers is to give a message that cannot access/mutual HARD drive.
    By mistake, I think I can have deleted the partition that had the top MBR. (I'm sure I didn't want to remove the disk from the operating system. I tried to remove the drive that was on display as unallocated (ubuntu leads usually shows as unallocated)).
    I tried the fixmbr command in the XP Recovery console, but it says that the drive we are trying to access is not available.
    I tried to use a mini Windows XP live CD (Hirens Bootable CD), which had an option to scan the HARD drive and find partitions.
    The HARD disk is scanned and my 2 XP partitions are located. It gives me the possibility to mount the partitions on the XP mini.
    I mounted the partitions and my 2 XP disks are intact. I think that there is a problem when accessing the HARD drive to the start-up level.
    Help, please.

    Thank you
    Gordon

    Ok...

    That's what I did.

    I was much concerned of my HARD drive to my data.

    So I unplugged my laptop HARD drive and carried it on the desk of a friend who had a SATA port.

    Plugged here and thank God it was detected, deleted all partitions and did a full format of the HARD drive.

    Fresh made 3 partitions and plugged the HARD drive into my laptop and installed WinXP which was a success.

    Kind regards

  • Lightroom 5 - re - installation license existing to the new laptop

    Hello

    I recently had an accident with my laptop.  He is now dead.  I want to reinstall Lightroom 5 I bought for download, I have the license number.  I tried downloading via the free trial version, as suggested by the forum, but it forced me to download creative cloud and would not accept my license number, says that it is not that I have already.  My understanding is that you can install the program on two computers, as long as the two belong to the same person. I spent a few hours hacking away and am frustrated, a person can offer only some advice please.  Thanks in advance

    This seems to be a fairly frequent problem, it seems difficult to find non - CC for the download version and the CC version will not work with a license key no CC.

    So, here's what I think you need to do:

    1. Uninstall the CC version you have downloaded and installed.
    2. Go here http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html
    3. Brings you to the download page for each country.  I know it says updates, but if you click on the version of Windows or Mac from LR is actually the entire program
    4. Download and follow the instructions for the installation and then enter your serial number when asked to.

    Autonomous LR does not need by turning off, you can install it on your new laptop with the old number without any problems.  I did it myself in the past that I moved from new PCs.  Should CC and CC before Photoshop disabling but not CC LR.

    Good luck!
