Regarding the restoration of the Windows 8 of recovery on a new disk media HARD empty.

I have a HP Pavilion laptop pre-installed Windows 8 (under warranty) and I get a new drive HARD HP vacuum in replacement.

I have already created a set of recovery media.

My question is that I would be able to install the Windows 8 by using the recovery media (created by me) on the new empty hard drive?

and what about the key of Windows 8?

Hello

Your recovery discs should install windows 8 on a new hard drive with no problems - windows 8 activation key is stored in your notebooks bios chip and will be read automatically by the installation disc.

To boot from your recovery disks, you will need to disable "Secure Boot" - see the HP document on the link below in this regard.

  • How to reinstall the Windows 7 upgrade on vista for new installation or in the event of system failure?

    I love periodically re - install a new operating system after reformatting hadr drive. In the past it was the of syetem of full operation and not just an upgrade. I have to be sure that it is not complicated, as I want to install the upgrade to Windows 7 (family pack) on 3 PC/laptops running Vista. I would upgrade as detailed instructions on how I would do a new installation using the Windows 7. This is important because I don't want to create a nightmarish experience of backup, install the original operating system, install the upgrade, etc. etc. etc.

    If you upgrade a computer Vista Win7 and need or want to do a clean install (or repair install) of Windows, you will need to reinstall Vista and then switch to Win7 again.

    Your question has nothing to do with Windows Update.

  • Is it possible to close Firefox after have closed all the windows (and also to open a new window when starting another process of Firefox)?

    Yes, Yes, I know, it's not good to keep open applications when they are not designed to be. I'm sure Firefox has some memory leaks and this does more harm than good, but...
    My computer is not the biggest out there, and to increase the ease of use of my Firefox browser, it would be nice to keep the firefox.exe process opened, even after you close all windows. I know that Firefox is not totally close if there is at least a Firefox-related window opens, but having to open popup window X seems a little extreme to achieve this effect.
    In addition, to allow another window to open, it would be cool for guests 'OH No. FIREFOX IS STILL OPEN' should be replaced by just trying to open a new window, if this feature is enabled.
    So, if it exists, is there a variable config for it, and if it does not exist, it is possible to somehow? I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty if it comes to him; I really want to get what's going on.
    I am running Windows 7 family, if it's important. (I would rather run a different OS, but this is neither the time nor the place...)

    This addon should close all tabs and open a blank tab and stay in the tray like this. or at least have an option like that. So what I have and what you want is met.

  • Transfer the Windows XP operating system to a new computer that has vista?

    My new computer had Windows vista but it is destroyed by a virus, and I lost the drive of vista.
    My old computer has Windows XP OS, computer is not usable, but I have the product key and the reinstallation CD. Am I allowed to install on the new machine?

    If XP is initially pre-installed on your old computer: NO; You can not install it on another computer.

    If XP was preinstalled on your computer, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

    This also applies if you had a license OEM/disc you purchased yourself.

    The license of XP OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
    You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

    If a license of XP at retail, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
    But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.

    A single license is a single Installation.

    For the replacement of Vista disk:

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  • Can save us from the Windows updates to another drive to increase disk space

    Hi I want to ask I can save the update of Windows to another example of player: as d ' drive, or an external hard drive, because the update are by default save to my c drive. And my c disk space becomes low.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    Thank you for your query details.

    I also appreciate that fact that you want to save the updates of Windows on another drive or location in order to increase the free space in C; drive.

    Save updates of Windows on another drive location is not recommended because it can cause corruption in the system files which can lead to some unstable operating system. It can also affect Windows start the process.

    Updates are automatically downloaded into the subfolder "C:\WINDOWS\Software Distribution\Download".

    If you want to increase the disk space, I suggest you run Disk Cleanup and check if it helps.

    Please see this link:
    Delete files using disk cleanup
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/delete-files-using-disk-cleanup#delete-files-using-disk-cleanup=Windows-7

    It removes temporary files, empty the "Recycle Bin", and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need.

    Note: When running Disk Cleanup on the disk hard if bad data files are found, all these data could be lost.

    I also recommend move your data files stored on drive C: to another drive to increase disk space.

    Reference:
    Move and copy files using drag and drop

  • Re: How to install Windows from a recovery on a new hard disk media?

    Immediately after a Windows Update, my computer will not re-start. It says disk error.

    I could not start it from the recovery media and F8 would not work. I bought and installed a new hard drive. Now, when I put in the recovery media to install Windows on the new drive, it gives an error message.

    What this may be? Would I be able to install Windows from the recovery media?
    It is Windows 7 and laptop Satellite A500, 64 bit.

    Hello

    In General, you can install Recovery on each compatible HARD drive image so you should not be a problem in this regard.

    Please tell us what happens when you start installation of recovery. What error message?

  • Windows installation disc needs for a new disk hard but is not available

    Hello

    The hard drive on my PC HP badly shot - he tells me I need to check for consistency, but it cannot and will not run chkdsk on a restart and will not let me create a restore disk.

    OK, I accept that I need to buy a new hard drive but I have no CD to install Win 7. The pc has a partition called "factory secctings" but it will not create a cd of Windows or a restore cd or a Sun.

    Microsoft has said that it is not available for me because my serial number includes the letters OEM. I had a case created at HP, and a person called me and said I should get the CD of the os from Microsoft, or from the store I bought from (Staples). Staples said they have no CD for Win 7 and cannot make me a. They said get them from Microsoft or HP.

    The number of cases is 3016271460

    See that I get nothing from Microsoft, HP, or Stqples. I never got a CD with the pc because, I guess, it's there on the partition to factory settings, but with the failure of hard drive I can't use it.

    All have a suggestion?

    Your hard drive can hold the DEFECTIVE SECTORS.

    The only way to get windows 7 disc is to buy a new Amazon / similar online stores / service centres.
