• How to remove vista so only 7 is running

  my child has just installed win 7 but has not removed from Windows vista, how to remove vista so only 7 is running?

  Original title: my child has just installed win 7 but has not removed from Windows vista, how to remove vista so only 7 is running?

  Hi Tarf,

  ·        Are the two copies of Windows 7 and Windows Vista installed on the partition, or on a different partition?

  ·        At the start of Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you receive two Windows startup options?

  ·        Are you able to boot to Windows 7 and Windows Vista installed on the computer?

  You can check the following information on your computer and post back the result to help us analyze the problem and remove a copy of Windows Vista.

  Start Windows 7 and Windows Vista installed on the computer and access the computer and check the partitions in Windows to make a note where Windows 7 and Windows Vista are installed and after return of information.

  If you are able to make a note of the partition on which Windows Vista is installed, and if you are confident about it, you can start on Windows 7 and check on which Windows Vista is installed; make a backup of data in Windows Vista and later you can remove folders of Windows files, users and the program or format the partition.

  I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

  Thank you and best regards,

• Help remove vista and options to dual boot with Windows 7

  I think that I have selected the bits from the right here, but please let me know if not.  I recently installed windows 7 and I love it so much I want to remove vista.

  I can't find any instructions on how to make sure (after formatting the drive with Vista on it - it's on a drive of 500 GB physically separated for Win 7) that I can remove the dual boot option, I currently have.  I also read if I do badly I can leave windows 7 unusable.

  Win 7 is a full do not install an upgrade, just like vista.

  Any help on the Microsoft site means how to repair xp, vista or windows 7, so to delete this post.

  Any help or direction is appreciated, I have a few days to make what I just place my order for a 2 TB HDD, so won't try until it happens.

  Hello

  "Just to check and then (which seems easier to me), if I transfer my data from the vista disc (assuming that it is the system disk) then delete and restart with the win7 dvd, a repair will then sign the Windows 7 disk as the system disk and remove any dual boot option?

  Yes, it should work. As the Win7 disk does not currently startup files, made only with this disc a repair will create the most necessary.

  "Out of curiosity if I format the Vista disc, and then restart your computer with the win7 dvd, this will give the same effect as having Remode the floppy disk in the first place?

  No, except if you use Disk Manager to designate the Win7 drive than active first. If you simply format the Vista disk and then run a repair, startup files will be rewritten on the disk of Vista.

• want to remove vista and install Windows xp

  I want to remove Vista and reinstall XP. My machine came loaded with vista. If I install XP need me drivers XP for my machine is a Lenovo IdeaCentre K210.

  Come on first, site of the manufacturer of your computer, check to see if your model computer has XP drivers available for it...

  If the XP drivers are not available for your model, forget the idea.

  If Yes, download and save to a CD or Flash drive.

  Then buy a disc XP and license.

  Save all your data because it will be lost during the installation of XP.

  Then follow the steps below to do a clean install.

  http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sg_clean.asp

  Once installed, reload ALL your other programs of original media, or download again.

  Reload all drivers and utilities for your motherboard.

  See you soon.

• I want to remove vista but already have 7 on my machine. How do I do that? I don't see 7 in partitions

  I am trying to remove vista from my laptop.  So I installed 7 and I tried a few methods to say to remove the vista partition is on.  However, I can't tell where vista is and where 7, which is.

  Where do you have windows 7

  The manufacturing as an upgrade.

  Or in the microsoft store, which sent a disc of windows 7?

  Manufacturing of upgrade discs are usually not eligible as a way to freshly install windows 7 because you lose all the crapware that they Prepackaging with their machines.

  Against the interests of manufacturing to give this option,

  In other words, some upgrade disks required to an existing operating system installed.

  Some are not / full versions.

  I heard there is a way to install Linux but in addition to Vista without remove the latter and lose all the data on the hard drive.
  Could someone explain this or give a link to a good guide please?

  And what Linux distribution can be recommended to install on my particular machine (L300D - 11M) so that everything worked well and all devices have been detected.

  It would be nice to hear from people with experience with Linux on the same model of laptop.

• Qosmio G35-AV650: how remove Vista Boot Manager and install XP

  OK, I got the g35-av650 - US. I don't see any good American forum Toshiba, so I post here.
  First of all, I must say I'm getting very frustrated.

  1: I upgraded my BIOS to try to install windows vista. Vista installed, however, it works well. It must be driver problems. I deleted the partition that I allocated for Vista. Now, how the hell do I remove the screen/start menu in vista.
  I want to get back my XP operating system selection screen.
  I think it has to do with the boot record.

  2: my bluetooth isn't all work more (don't ask me why...) After that I updated the BIOS to version 1.40 to the newest 3.30.

  The recovery CD said I use the CD in the computer wrong? Is it possible to downgrade the BIOS/solve this problem, or bypass it.

  Thanks for the responses, because they will be very appreciated.

  Hello

  (1.) you want to reinstall XP on the HARD drive or you want to cancel only the vista Boot Manager.
  Usually after reinstalling XP, the boot manager should disappear.

  But I found these tips step by step in the internet:

  -Start your computer in Windows XP.
  -Make sure you have the image of Vista DVD emulated or in the DVD drive.
  -Go to start and run. Type in e:\boot\bootsect.exe/nt52 ALL/force (without the quotation marks and replace e: with the letter of your Vista DVD).
  -Restart the computer, and you notice that the selection of start menu disappeared.
  -Format the partition/drive where you installed Vista.
  -Remove the two (Boot.BAK and Bootsect.BAK) files on your file of root of drives XP (c), it was backup of your previous boot loader files, now is more useful.
  -Optional: Restart to make sure it still works.
  -Use your partition software to merge your partitions.

  2.), I hope that you have used the BIOS from the page we Toshiba. However, the BIOS update should not has a bad influence on the functionality of BT. Try to download the latest driver for BT and install again.

• Remove Vista update files after installation

  Hello
  I'm new to Vista. I have Vista Home Premium 64-bit. I have all the updates that are installed for a while now and the system works properly. I want to remove the installation & uninstall files. In XP, files were located in the Windows folder and blue color for easy identification. I think I found the folder in Vista, it is, is the right folder C:\Windows\Servicing\Packages? Is it safe to delete all files in this folder the same as in XP. I know that I won't be able to uninstall the updates later.

  Thanks for the help.

  Malcolm

  Malcolm, we can not defend deleting the files found in the Windows directory unless they are part of a process of solving problems, is there a reason to delete the content of your package store? If you are running low on space, you must use the cleanup utility disk (found in the start menu-> all programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> disk cleanup). Rami

• Error 0 x 80090009: invalid flags specified, when I try to delete documents, photos, etc. by right click; Impossible to remove; Vista Home Premium

  I'm unable to delete documents, photos, etc. of my files by the usual method of mouse right click and selecting delete. The message "error 0 x 80090009: Invalid Flags specified" appears and click Try Again does not help. I emptied the Recycle Bin to make sure that it was not complete. I have Vista Home Premium.

  Thank you. I have gone through articles. They were somewhat useful.  It seems that the trash does not accept the delete, but I can work around it by removing permanently without going through the trash using the click, move, delete approach.
