Reinstall problems

Well, I bought my aw 17 a few years ago. Had a lot of problems with it, so I went to reinstall windows 7 on a drive I had laying around. I don't have a cd factory

When I went to install windows, at the end of installation, I got a message saying that this version of windows cannot be installed with the existing equipment. I have restart computer and now it goes to a screen where it says windows configures for use, then the error again.i cannot go beyond this.i tried repairing windows from the windows cd, no luck.i know the recovery partition is there because I saw when I went to install windows.

I don't have a cd to respawn, I did f8 and there is no option for repair/launch looked respawn.i also through the f12 option, no luck.i cannot enter any security mode, I get a command prompt.i have a couple house built of workstations if there is something that I can download but I have no idea what.i am totally lost. »

can someone please help

I did not remove all partitions, because I didn't want to lose the factory restore. My ultimate goal was to make 10. Windows, that the initial problem was that I couldn't get anything to load without making mistakes, so I tried to get a new installation and start up with windows 7 as 10 would not install.

At the end of the day, I had burn 10 on a Flash DRIVE and do a clean install.10 loaded just fine, but I couldn't activate due to the new installation. So with 10 up and running, I could download respawn and restore the factory settings which took back me to 7 then I could upgrade to 10. so now I'm all set, just a bunch of hoops to jump through to get here.

Thanks for the help

  • BlackBerry Smartphones MP3 Ringtone Creator reinstall problem

    Installed MP3 ringtone creator, then warned of the update. Tried to install the update, received the error of App World, was not available for download. I uninstalled the app to reinstall the latest version, still cannot install and now have lost fun ringtones.  What can I do? I hope not to go to the Javatek! Thank you.

  • Equium A100 - 147 Virtual Sound reinstall problem

    I read a few posts about the same problem I have, but with no definitive answer. I have the satellite A100-147 with Windows XP Media Center. I downloaded a few files updated on the Toshiba site (all for my model), including:

    acsil-xpmce-100008-en
    Assist-xpmce-10300-en
    confree-xpmce-59007ab-en

    Toupad-xpmce - 10001st - en

    and then: tvs-xpmce-10312-en (latest driver Virtual Sound for the A100-147)

    I uninstalled the old version of the virtual sound driver before attempting to install a new one. But as I've seen elsewhere, I get the message:

    "Toshiba Virtual Sound can't stand your computer."

    I spent all afternoon looking up and trying to find ways to solve this problem. I've since updated my BIOS (bios-550win). Not a thing I try it will work. I even deleted the references to his virtual in the registry where there was no ongoing conflict. It made no difference if.

    Could someone Toshiba please explain to me why I am told that I can not install which worked perfectly until this morning, before these updates, which are all intended for my laptop model? This is ridiculous. My apologies for my tone, but have lost hours on it, I'm extremely frustrated and you want just like it was back in my laptop (and before you ask, Yes, I tried a system restore, but that does not work either).

    Thank you

  • Audition CS5.5 reinstall problem

    Hi, I have audition cs5.5, which was an upgrade to version 1.5. When I bought what I needed to call adobe to get a response from code challenge to activate because there seems to be a problem with the sn for version 1.5. Adobe then issued me with the code and all was good for a few years.

    I now have a new system that I want to install this software on and once again had the same problem. I contacted the online support from adobe who were able to guide me here because they take in charge the newer versions (I also have a subscription of clouds, but as I paid for these permanent licenses I want to use them on additional systems).

    I need help here from Adobe please that you are the only ones who can legally give me a code.

    I recorded all of the software and everything is legal and paid,

    Thanks in advance

    Trevor

    Hi Trevor,

    While I don't have access to the confidential information of the user, we will see if there is anything we can do here to help.  First of all, I'm not clear why the installation asks for a challenge code any.  CS5.5 update serial numbers should not be if I remember correctly, ask a serial number legacy to validate ownership of a previous version - I think that this was done on the Web site when buying, as serial number authentication algorithms were not compatible.  Version CS5.5 should 'phone home' during the installation to authenticate valid serial number.  Only if this were not possible, usually the computer being completely disconnected, exist an alternative activation method where you would need to give a challenge code to a customer service representative and respond with the code they provide.

    If you are not able to activate the default method and must use code challenge, it is entirely the responsibility of our customer service representatives, but I suspect that they do not see those who ask more often.  If you try again and get the same answer after explaining, you can not activate using the default method, please let me know and I'll investigate more on our end.

    Thank you

    Method 2
    Try to disable the complete antivirus, then check if you can install.
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.

    If the steps above fail, then I suggest you to ask your question to the forums yahoo.
