  • Pavilion dm4 - 1201us: upgrade to Windows 10 with a computer that refuses to install Windows 7 SP1

    I would like to be able to update my old laptop W7 with W10, however, I am unable to do so, due to the fact that after replacing the hard drive, then allowing a 'grumpy' friend to manage the installation of the OS, I'm unable to install SP1 that is required for the free update.

    Any help?

    Other information: the laptop came originally with "Windows 7 Home Prem OA" but is now underway "Windows 7 Unlimate" and I have no recovery disk for the original W7 supplied with the machine.

    EDIT: Also, when I run Windows Update, SP1 or in a separate file, I get the same error. Here is a picture of the error of the SP1 folder.

    Unfortunately, it seems that your hacker friend installed an improved version of Windows 7 and now it is not authentic so it will not be updated.

    You can try the suggestions in this post from TechNet and see if you can correct it. I used your error message to find this info.

    If you are not successful this, then you should contact HP to get reinstall disks so that you can install the version of Windows 7 OEM. You will have to do all the updates, but it should be able to do.

    Unless you have an email or a packaging of retail with an improved version of Windows and a key, you will encounter this kind of problem. The version of your operating system must match the key you have.

  • Issue of Windows 7 SP1 OEM System Builder Pack

    I recently bought the Pack Windows 7 SP1 OEM System Builder and I don't know if I bought the right product. I had to replace my HARD drive (old one crashed) and I felt it was time to leave the world of XP. It will be installed on an existing computer that does not have to be sold. I don't want to open the software until I'm 100% sure. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    There's nothing wrong with using it, just that there are certain restrictions that apply. In view of this manufacturer of OEM licenses system will soon become only detail existing once stock option full version licenses have been exhausted, I'd say don't worry about this.

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    What is OEM software? :

    Licensing FAQ:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/OEM/en/licensing/sblicensing/pages/licensing_faq.aspx

    The main advantage with the retail license is the clause that allows the easy between future materials transfer if that's the case, but I wouldn't worry too much on this subject.

    Since you have replaced the drive, it would have been a clean install anyway, even if Windows XP was still in use on the system.

    If you are not comfortable with it, you can always go back and buy the full commercial license:

  • Cannot run Windows 7 SP1 on big HDD (1 TB)

    Hello

    I just realized about this very recent which is apparently now closed:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=275105

    I had same problem with a Toshiba 1 TB drive - I lost on that day and tried at least 10 Windows 7 installs with various behaviours/settings/partitions and still the same result. Cannot run Windows Update.

    I also tried to install Windows 7 SP1 from a DVD and have failed with a catastrophic mistake. I also tried to reformat the disk, the WIndows repair tool (ha!) update and installation when you're standing on my head while reciting the works of Shakespear.

    I gave up in the end and decided to NOT use it as a system disk at all. Instead, I installed Windows 7 on a smaller drive and uses the 1 TB and successfully as a secondary on the same PC drive with a single partition of 1 TB.

    I'm likely to have problems - maybe when the player is more complete and if I might be wise to split into 2 or more partitions?

    I just bought the drive so I can send it if it's going to be a waste of time.

    Thank you very much.

    And what model of Toshiba laptop do you have?

  • Lenovo G560 cannot get Windows 7 SP1 via Windows Update

    My laptop Lenovo G560, running Windows 7 Home Basic Edition does not have the ability to download Windows 7 SP1 from Windows Update. What could be the problem? Everyone knows this? What is the solution? I had the laptop for almost two years.

    Stud says:

    See my post on this page if you have not resolved your problem - it's almost certainly because of the Intel graphics driver.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC: upgrade of windows 7 sp1 Windows 10

    My laptop is running Windows 7, SP1. HP programs on this site showed that is true even if the "upgrade to Windows 10 app" does not appear on my screen.

    When I go on the site Web of Windows 10, its diagnostic program indicates that I am running Windows 6.1 and also claims that 6.1 is not compatible to update at 10.

    Which site is correct, and how upgrading to Windows 10?

    Hello

    Whidow 6.1 is actually Windows 7. Microsoft has little means to him give the product a code normally based on the original code as if Windows XP is / was 5.1, Windows 8.1 Windows is Windows 6.3... Please use the following list:

    We need a replacement for windows home server that does not cost as much as a PC. 2011 is not really available and 2008 has compatibility problems, because it is based on XP and Server 2003. None of the motherboard manufactures will support XP (thanks to MS) and more recent SATA drives do not work in my motherboard more old.

  • How can I remove Windows 7 SP1 RC?

    Hi, again last year, I installed Windows 7 SP1 RC and have had no problems with it until a few days ago when I tried to remove it to get ready for the SP1 RTM, now after checking the web found that I was not the only 1 with the same problem, looking again on the web I was shocked to discover that when I installed SP1 RC uninstalling files have been placed in a temporary folder and that if you did any household on your PC then the files would be deleted and so the only way to remove SP1 RC had to clean install back to factory settings.

    Any 1 knows if microsoft can fix it.
