  Hi all

  Hello:

  If you are in a hurry and want to install W7 before your recovery disks are shipped to you, you can download the version of windows 7, which has been installed on your PC and is indicated on the COA Microsoft sticker on the bottom of your PC.  For example, if windows 7 Pro came with your laptop and is indicated on your COA sticker, you can download the 32-bit or the 64-bit version of windows 7 Pro in language comes with your PC, and use the 25-character product key on your COA to activate the software.

  You must use the language of the operating system that comes originally installed on the PC or the product key will not work.

  You will need a program capable of burning ISO to DVD files, burning, so that the DVD is bootable DVD.

  Then just go to the support for your laptop and driver page to download and install the drivers you need.

  Link to all versions of W7. These are real files to Microsoft.

  I think most of the technicians know how to use a recovery partition, but the real problem for the recovery of Windows 8, it is each brand (oem) will need an installation disc for their particular model. We can install a Dell windows 7 cd on any PC OEM and after doing the updates, it will itself attest. With windows 8 you can even not windows to be installed on the PC if the disk you put in does not support security in the BIOS.  In other words, you need the proper (HP, Dell, etc.) model numbers version of Windows 8 recovery CD similarly be able to install it.
  If you are a system integrator or building a PC for yourself I think that the normal OEM cd should work as long as you you know number OEM KEY or product key. Its the BRAND PC which will be a pain in the buttocks in the future for technicians who have to reinstall Windows 8 on a VIRGIN hard drive AGAIN.

• How can I move the Virtual Mode of Windows XP hard drive to another drive

  How can I move the Virtual Mode of Windows XP hard drive to another drive?

  TIA

  Hi Benyl,

  The vhd in programfiles basis cannot be moved or renamed, if done, xp mode stops at the start.

  To move the files under c, first to boot xp, instead of save mode the machine virtual., turn it off. (settings to prompt the user for action narrow close). Close the machine virtual., and then choose stop. This will remove the vsv file. Do not delete the .vsv file because it contains data if you have not registered in the virtual machine.

  Now, move it "C:\Users\CHRIS.domainname\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows virtual PC\Virtual Machines\Windows XP Mode.vhd" to a desired location.

  Parameters of xp mode open, go to the hard drive 1 setting and reposition the hard drive to the new location of the vhd. You should now be able to start the virtual machine.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I read your post about your hard drive problem and wanted to help.

  Let's start by defining some terms.

  When a disk 'crashed', it means a hardware failure, such that the disk cannot be read. You can not write on the disc or read him.  It can only be repaired by this disassembly and replacement of parts.  This must be done in a clean room environment and the cost to do that starts at $1000 USD.

  When a disc has "failed", this could mean practically anything.  In some cases, this means that the file system is damaged.  This may be due to the closure of the PC in the middle of a write operation, as when all of a sudden, you turn off your PC.  This can also be due to hardware problems as for lack of sectors.  In both cases, the drive is probably still usable, but in the second case, it won't be for long.

  So if HP Recovery runs, then it is not 'crashed', but he could have 'failed' - and in the latter case, if she fails to sectors, replace faster you it, the better.
  
  Good luck

• You can start a windows Mac hard drive

  Before selling my PC, I retained my SATA hard drive that has Windows XP. And now, I was wondering if I can boot to it directly by going to the start menu in the start by pressing option. My friend told me that there is an option for bootcamping but it's to create a partition, but tbh I don't want that. I want only one HDD for windows whenever I need. I've heard that maybe I need to install my Windows XP drivers to make it work in mac hardware. Is it possible to fix this?

  my MacBook Pro 13-inch, mid-2012 is

  Its probably doable though I've ever tried.

  Boot Camp can be used without creating a new partition, as long as you already have an unused partition or HD. I ran my Windows XP and Win7 installed on a HD in my MacPro 2008 (mac tower with 4 HD bays).

  Issues that come to mind are as follows:

  • You will probably need to pilots. They are normally downloaded via the Boot Camp Assistant application. Most of them is 3rd party software and divers with some exceptions for a few specific Apple things. These are installed after the Windows installation is performed when you perform an installation of Boot Camp, so I would imaging that it should be possible to apply any existing Windows Installer.
  • I vaguely remember Windows being only unable booted from an external hard drive so that might be a problem.
  • I also wonder if the Boot Camp is necessary in step of format and prepare to install Windows to set up a Windows OSX Bootstrapper.

• Cannot install Windows 7 HARD drive problems

  Hi all!

  I have lenovo ThinkPad T540p. Intel Core I7, 8 GB RAM and 500 GB HARD drive. I think my HARD drive is Toshiba. It had Windows 7 on it, but it starts no more on this subject. When I start Windows is it shows 5 seconds black screen, and then it displays the Boot Menu. Well, I tried to reinstall Windows, but when I have to choose on which disk to install Windows, I get an error: "no hard drive found." And the list with readers is empty, so I can't reinstall Windows. I've updated the BIOS, but it did not help. Finally, I formatted my HARD drive and created two partitions on it. It worked, but not for long. I installed Windows 7. Everything was going well until I restarted my computer. And then I got the same problem: 'Cannot start from the HARD disk' and displays the Start Menu. Then I booted Windows installation and I got the same error: "no hard drive found."

  I don't understand what is happening with my HARD drive and that is to destroy his scores.

  And I don't think that my HARD drive is broken.

  I don't really know what to do!
  Please, help me!

  Thanks a lot!

  Here is the solution:

  My HARD drive was broken. I bought a new MX100 of Crucial SSd and everything is fine.

• 1206tx envy 6: Windows install hard drive problem

  I currently install windows 8.1 and in my cell there are two ssd 30 GB drive hard one and only one 500 sata.
  I can't install on sata as it says it's style gpt and I tried to delete and now it is not allocated and is not awarded. On the ssd, it was in error, and I read a forum saying that removing the drive sata hard and get on ssd. I did and I did but after connecting the hard drive it is said that there are no windows installed.

  Hi there @Abdull,

  Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome! It is an excellent site to find answers and ask questions. I watched the Style GPT error and the error No Windows installed.

  The laptop you have comes with SATA 500, but you also have a 30 GB SSD. Does do that? The SSD is external, or put in the machine yourself?

  I would say performing a HP System Recovery to reinstall the operating system, assuming that the partition is still intact. If this is not present, you did a set of recovery media?

  Please follow these troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went.

  Thank you!

  Have a great day!

• Pavilion 23-f221ea: Setup error of Windows 8 hard drive refurbished

  Hello

  I posted a similar message last month, but it is a new issue.

  I start with a completely fresh SATA hard drive, purchased yesterday and the recovery that were sent to me by HP disks.  I think that I have can I have inadvertently damaged the last new hard drive he began to throw up a lot of mistakes 'disk fail.

  I was expecting, it's a straight forward case this time, but I was struck with the following message appears during the recovery process: "Windows could not restore your computer by using the factory imagebe"

  I followed the advice of this guy: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-and-Recovery/Recovery-Manager-could-not-resto... and got an iso disc of Windows 8 (maybe 8.1).

  I started with the iso disk and followed the instructions on the screen until I was asked to choose the installation location. I chose the one and the only displayed 1 TB drive, but after nearly 30 minutes, the installer said "Windows is unable to install to the selected location. "Error: 0 x 80300001.

  I thought that this new disc may need partitioning and/or formatting, but I tried it via the command prompt only to be presented with another error - IO error. My hands are essentially firmly tied behind my back now.  I feel like I'm just opening a long line of Pandora's boxes at every turn!

  This time, I was convinced that, with a new batch of discs of HP Receovery official, it would be simple veil--what a mistake!

  Please can someone save me?

  Hello

  My thoughts are to delete all partitions, select new. Windows will create all the required partitions.

• Pavilion P6-2469eo: Reinstalling windows after HARD drive crash

  Hi, I just bought a defective HP Pavilion P6 known.   After receiving and checking, it appears that the hard drive is faulty.

  The machine does not start, I have activated POST messages and now a screen message saying that 'no boot disk was detected, or the drive failed.    The DPS self test fails with code 7.

  I disabled the secure boot and can boot from a CD of Linux, so I know that, basically, the computer is still alive

  My question is, once I have comes from replacing the hard drive, I can get a copy of replacement windows to HP or do I buy one out of the copy of the Windows Tablet (or install Linux)?

  I was told that the machine is two years old and just out of warranty.

  Thank you!

  If out of warranty, you will most likely need to buy a set of HP or a partner of HP recovery disk. The good thing is that it's a reasonable price.

• Second hard drive broke off today and after that reattching the XP Pro disc will read the current files.

  When you try to open the XP disc prompts you to format the drive.

  How can I get XP to recognize the current files without loseing no information?

  Hi FeedUsFajitas,
   
  -Is the hard drive is detected?
  -What is the brand and model of your hard drive?
  -What, exactly, is a transcript of the error message that you receive?
   
  Method 1: Check if there is a problem with the device.
   
  If you have another computer that is working properly, plug this computer to see if you encounter the same problem. If you have the same problem, there could be a problem with the unit.

  If you believe that your device is defective, contact the manufacturer.

  Method 2: Run the troubleshooter from the link given below:

  Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows
