• How to reinstall win8 on laptop?

  What else do I have to activate myself install the OS on laptop?

  Maybe this should be displayed in the repair section, in any case, here's my problem.

  My laptop could not load once I tried to move from win8 to win8.1, he comes himself stuck in a restart loop where he claims he met error starting of win8.1, will collect information and restart; but he is never able to get back in the mode window after 8 hours. I tried press F2, F4, F8 and F10, and none is able to bring me the menu of the BIOS to boot from USB or DVD. After learning that the win8 product key has been pre-build in the BIOS, I decided to just erased the hard disk and reinstall win8 using the win8 OEM backup disk that was my friend. I took out the hard drive and quick format using a computer laptop win7 last night, put the backup in the computer samsung laptop, power, I get to the blue screen of the "recovery" with 0xc000000f error code. Press ESC, now I have access to the BIOS and disable secure boot and dvd move upward in the boot sequence... but, that's all I can do, on the existing from the BIOS, I've been to this "Reovery" screen without access to BACK DVD or USB. What else should I do to install the OS on this laptop?

  I got this laptop from samsung which is preload with win8 about 1 year, but it was refurnished by bestbuy and backup/system partition was missing. I made attempts to create the backup drive using this 'win7-file recovery' option in win8, but is useless once I tried to reload and doesn't have it and can not find this copy now. I have the folder windows.old in backup before formatting and a relief win8 disc but no use right now.

  Any advice will be helpful, and if I can't reinstall win8 to the end, maybe I can try to use linux, LOL

  If you have another count, you could do the installation media on a USB stick or something (link here). Regarding the BIOSI would try just spamming the "F1 - F12" and "Esc" keys or search how to access BIOS/UEFI.

  Yes.
  > after doing this, it will be possible to reinstall Windows 8 USB recovery media that I created.
  Yes.
  > Is Windows 7 installation problem? (on the new UEFI; piece of equipment...)
  Generally no, it isn't a problem. Only problem may be installing some drivers, tools and utilities, but I think that you will be able to install it.

• Installation hangs at the backup data when reinstalling Win8 recovery Dell & restore USB

  I need to clean and reinstall Windows 8.1 because the administrator password has been lost, no password recovery disk is available and that newspapers now only machine in the guest account and you can't run the Dell recovery and restore from a guest account without login as administrator
   
  We have no data that needs backup machine is assigned to a new person in the company and we don't need all the programs installed, so we bought the Dell OS recovery and restore USB of the machine with the conviction that it would restore the first day.
   
  I was informed that the version of Windows that will be restored is 8.0 and then require the upgrade again after... no problem
   
  Unfortunately, the recovery process insists on performing a data backup in order to restore it later...
   
  -If I shut down the PC when you are connected as a guest before execution of the USB OS recovery, when it comes to the implementation of backup and migration, it will on the desktop and does nothing
   
  -If I log in on the comments before you stop, he is in recovery USB OS with "Initialize Backup and Migration" screen "Please wait" and Rotary processing icon
   
  I waited for expected two hours after the two meanings, and no apparent progress had so force stop.
   
  All tests up to this point find no error... Well, there is no, we do not have the admin password only!
   
  It is not an option to skip the backup and go directly to the restoration
   
  Any advice on the conduct of a pure install?
   
  Thank you very much

  I suggest good to wipe your system:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/securely-wipe-your-hard-drive-with-dariks-boot-and-Nuke-DBAN/

  Download the new Windows with update 1 a.ISO 8.1:

  This works with your OEM license, see a clean install of Windows for more details:

  This will take you through the installation of Windows 8.1, its pilots and make a recovery of the own partition install using Dell backup and restore.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  You must update the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) for the UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) updated. I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of your computer to update the BIOS.

  Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• Thinkpad W540 brightness

  Hello

  Brightness of thinkpad does not work.

  I reinstalled my thinkpad W540. For the display driver I downloaded the latest version of Nvidia. All the other drivers from Lenovo Web site.

  OS: Win8.1 pro

  When I push the F5 or F6, screen brightness bar appears, but nothing happens.

  Already tried

  -Reinstall the drivers after removing device in Device Manager

  -Reinstall programs after removing all drivers from nvidia and intel in programs and features

  You have a solution?

  You must use the drivers nvidia on the lenovo Web site. Unfortunately, lenovo does not update the drivers, so you can choose to have all the latest features or the ability to change your brightness.

• Blue screen because of the WiFi - Satellite with Win8 L855

  Hello

  I bought my Toshiba Satellite L855 almost 2 months ago and I was faced with the following problem:

  Whenever I am connected to a wireless connection, after 2 minutes of use, windows gives me the blue screen and its always the same error code. It is the Atheros wireless card.

  I updated the drivers and windows 8 came standard with the laptop.

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  Have you noticed this problem for the first day or later? I mean the preinstalled recovery image contains good drivers and it is tested for this kind of problems should not happen. Have you changed a few WLAN options?

  If possible, reinstall Win8 once again using test and drive recovery option HARD with own pre-installed factory and OS settings without changing anything.

• Win8 resettlement after the gaffe of Hyper V

  I bought a 660 a few days ago and wanted to play with the addition of a virtual machine.  I installed Hyper-V on the MS site, but I need to have installed on my windows boot partition because now it start to Hyper-V and that's all. I get a nice DOS prompt and that's all.

  Looking around on the disc via the guest of the BACK of my friend, I can see Windows and Windows.Old on the C:.  Because I can see the Windows.old I hope there is some way I can cancel my little experiment.  (On the plan positive, I had not installed something meaningful on the machine, so I can afford to do to jump immediately.)

  So, how can I reinstall Win8?

  Thank you!

  You can order filtering alternatives by calling support or using this form (I recommend the form first):

  support.Dell.com/.../backupcd_form

  The drivers disk does you nothing without the OS disc.

  You might be able to 'restore' by following the instructions below, but you would still need an OS disc to do:

  support.Microsoft.com/.../971760

  You can also upgrade to Windows 8 Pro and run the same software of Hyper-V in Windows 8.

  If you want to dual-boot, you just need to remember that every OS needs its own partition.

• Satellite C855D-12j - BSOD and HDD is not available

  I have a Blue Screen Of Death (less blue with Windows 8) very often, and when restarting the computer does not find the HARD drive, I have to press the power button until it is cut and if I'm lucky, it identifies the HARD drive during the reboot.

  I try to repair with the tools of Windows 8 but nothing change and it's the same BSOD when I try to install Windows 7 or Ubuntu.

  I had to send my computer to support?

  By default the BIOS settings and reinstall Win8 again. Test it and if it has same problem occurs again, I highly recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider. It's the new notebook with valid warranty so it should be fixed for you.

  BSOD can be related to hardware or even software so problems if the gift factory settings help t I think service should check it out.
