  • Impossible to reinstall Windows 7 on a new hard drive

    First off apologies if this has been answered recently, I spent the 2 days on this problem and the promise that I searched and google til my fingers bleed. Basically, the situation is as follows:

    -The PC tells me HDD is faulty on my Studio XPS 8000

    -J' I buy the new HDD, then get out of the old and install new

    -Position the disc of the PC operating system, get up to where I can click on install to start the installation of Windows 7 on the new drive

    -However he says there is no device driver on the disk, I put in the drivers and Utilities disc, (which came with the PC) but still no driver of the device, even if it says disk they appear thereon

    -Back to the old drive and try to make the system recovery disk - try to use USB flash drive but is not recognized, so buy dvdr discs and go through initialization and then it begins to collect files, but on many tests is not go beyond 25% full, let alone engraving on the startup disk.

    -Dell Datasafe Local Backup to uninstall and reinstall but the continuous PC to freeze at "25% collection files.

    So, what can I do, because my warranty is over? All I have to do is install my copy already purchased WIndows 7 on my new hard drive already bought, but I'm stumped at this point. Thanks for any help of cutting-edge :)

    Oh... PS. -I am in England so I don't think I can send away from the backup disks, even if the expiry of the guarantee is not a problem.

    Follow the Windows reinstallation Guide / A clean installation of Windows 7:

    http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/

    The part you get stuck on is step 6, preparation of step 8 and SATA drivers loaded during the installation of Windows.

    Note that I recommend using a .iso of Digital River, which will be the installation of more up-to-date media and the use of Activation and recovery of backup for the activation of the product. Follow the step 2 (using the files at the bottom) and stage 11 b for activation of the product. It is an unofficial solution but works very well.

    You can of course try to call Support technique Dell and request a Dell Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 DVD of resettlement.

  • I can install Windows 7 on a new hard drive for HP Envy m6 1205dx

    My HP Envy m6-1205dx son is a notebook of 2013. The screen was broken and I replaced one. Now he says that there is not a BONE, I tried to install a full version of Windows 7 Professional, and he said that he there was not a boot device. I've reconfigured the BIOS to boot with the CD/DVD ROM and it started installing. When he arrives at the point of asking where to put the installation there is no option. I checked the connection to the hard drive and it is not a problem here. I think to buy a new hard drive to install the Windows 7 operating system, I am afraid that it will not work or he will say that I need to install the drivers. This laptop originally supplied with Windows 8. Can I install this version of Windows on this laptop? If I need to install the drivers how can I get them? It cannot be a website to download the drivers on your computer. I can't do without the computer having an operating system. I downloaded some drivers from a link, I saw on You Tube and put it on a flash drive, but none was consistent, one of them did read on a different/more older computer I tried to install this OS on and it says that the driver was out of date. It seems to me that a (FULL VERSION) drivers and everything else you might need. I'm not computer savvy, so I do not know! I'm just trying to save my investment of $600 on this computer without spending $300. I can get a new hard drive for $80 and it was on that I would go; However, I will buy a new Windows 8 operating system if it is the only option.

    There is no device driver Windows 7 for your model, only Windows 8:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=5359748&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en

    If there is no driver, your PC may not work correctly (No. LAN or WiFi, Audio, USB, etc.) after the installation of Windows 7.

    Check your hard drive, if the laptop has been abandoned the drive may be defective and must be replaced.

    You can order a support of HP recovery:

    Hi ARolle,

    ·         It is reinstall drive?

    Method 1: Load default BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) settings, and then restart the computer. Make sure that you have the CD drive set as first boot device. Check the settings by consulting the manual or call the manufacturer to do so.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    Method 2: Try to boot from the CD and see if you can start the installation.

    Contact Toshiba to get more information on the type of disc you use to reinstall Windows.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300 - recovery disk will reinstall Windows OS on the new HARD drive

    Hard drive of my Satellite Pro A300 failed. It has now been replaced. I ordered a recovery disk.
    This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?

    Also, I get this message "BOOTMGR MISSING". The recovery disc will fix this problem too?
    Thanks in advance!

    > I ordered a recovery disk. This will allow me to reinstall Windows Vista OS that is installed initially?
    Yes. Without a doubt.

    If so avoid any problem.

    Moreover, A300 works perfectly and much better with Win7 32 bit.

  • Reinstalling Windows 7 on a new hard drive

    I can't find an answer to this question anywhere.

    I own a Sony Vaio VPCL116FX running Windows 7. A few days before, without warning, a window opens, informing me that the failure of the hard drive was imminent and do a disk backup and restore immediately, so I saved all on an external hard drive. OS as Windows Image Backup. So I bought a new hard drive, installed and am ready to reinstall all my work on the new hard drive. I went into the bios and boot priority changed external hard drive, but not joy. It shouldn't be so difficult that it is becoming.

    Because the computer is delivered with no recovery disc, the outside is all I have to work with. Sony there is no help, Vaio has been sold, and the only suggestion I can get from Microsoft is to contact one of the two manufacturers above.

    Is there something I need to do other than the steps that I already tried to engage?

    Thank you.

    Hi Natalia,

    You can do the following.

    Create an installation disk yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the version exact same origin supplied with your laptop ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write that an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

    My dell desktop internal hard drive crashed completely, so I can't start over. I am running windows XP (and I have the product key) that has been installed by dell, when I bought it. I have all the original disks. I intend to buy a new internal hard drive and re - install windows XP. How can I do that when I have everything I have is a product key? I made a backup of the hard drive on an external hard drive, but I don't think that I can boot from the external drive. I have no backup discs.

    The best solution is to contact Dell and get a recovery disk. Otherwise will need you:

    2 remove your computer to a competent local professional, who will have the right Dell XP disc to reinstall Windows. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup unit and transfer of media has been planned with you keep a master copy of your media on a computer that is itself saved separately against loss.  To use a device with a different configuration, you pass the old library from a computer or a backup directly in the new configuration, not the device to the library. Synchronization of media isn't a way, computer to the device, update the contents of the device to the content on the computer, update or restore the content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases that can be transferred to a computer.

    Redownload or transfer your iTunes Store purchases an iPhone, iPad or iPod to computer - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201267 - 'this feature only works for content purchased from the iTunes Store. From iOS9 is more apps that now need to be re-downloaded directly from the store.

    To transfer other items from an i-device to a computer, you will need to use third-party commercial software.  See this document in turingtest2: recover your iTunes library from your iPod or device iOS - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 even this method can fully recover what you originally had in the library. For example, in order to save space during synchronization if you had converted music files at a lower rate, or photos at a lower resolution, it is these lower quality files that will pick you up.

    If you subscribe to the Apple music, titles that are not part of the content that you have purchased or downloaded may not be transferred and must be downloaded directly from iCloud.
