So Win 7 on HP laptop to another HP laptop

I have a HP laptop with Windows 7 installed in need of repairs and the cost of repair is more than 300.  I found a HP dv7 Vista to sell and want to transfer my copy of Windows 7 from HP to one another.  Is this possible?

Hello

Unfortunately no, both practical and legal.

Kind regards.

  • How to install Win XP on my laptop

    I bought a satellite laptop that came with Vista installed and a few records to the 'dismantling' to XP I have if desired.

    I find Vista to be an absolute dog of a product, so I inserted my XP disc and waited.
    Finally, there's no autorun on the CD file and no obvious choice of a file to run at all.

    Can someone explain how to return my laptop to the XP operating system?

    First, it would really help to know what laptop you have.
    Secondly I m wondering if you have read some threads here in the forum about the installation of Win XP before you packed this announcement

    I'm not quite sure what the problem could be but I m have a hypothesis.

    It possible s you didn t start from the Win XP disc. You said that you have some tiles it and WAITED
    The disc must be inserted and the laptop must be OFF.
    Then turn on the computer laptop and boot from the bootable disk

    The other possibility would be that you didn't install SATA drivers (which are necessary for all cell phones recent) and therefore the Win XP does not recognize the HARD drive and cannot go through the complete installation program.

    I recommend checking and reading some markets here in the forum about the SATA driver and Storage Manager Intel.

  • Envy of HP DV7 - 7233nr: decommissioning victory 8.1 for win 7 computer hp laptop dv7 envy

    I've recently upgraded to win victory 10 8, I am not satisfied one or the other. I bought Win 7 Professional SP1 64 bit generator system "OEM" the other day. I would like to erase the hard drive and install Win 7 pro.

    I don't know if it's easier to re - install win 8 on one partition and win 7 on another. I have the factory restore disks for win 8, which came with this pc. Have never created two partitions, I'm sure I could handle it, but I have now that I won't have the drivers for win 7 on this computer.

    I think I can do this with good help and I ask for this help PLEASE.

    Sincerely,.

    John "stuck".

    I'll keep my fingers crossed and go from there. I'll look around for other similar situations. As I sit here and ponder this object I'll probably imagined more questions to ask. But meanwhile your top shelf and we will no doubt talk again.

  • I'm not able to install Win XP Pro on laptop Qosmio

    I bought a new Qosmio in Ukraine... has been installed XP in Russian, can understand any word. So, back to Istanbul I asked Microsoft about licensing and learned that I have to buy XP Pro additional English (the Russian pre-installed XP is not accepted by Microsoft).

    So I spent another $180 for the XP Pro English license. But I can't install it on the laptop. Toshiba must raise all of the idiots who built such a stupid computer. Somehow XP says that there is no hard drive in the unit. It's amazing. The laptop is dependent on language...

    Hi guys

    @aydinz: it's a simple fact that the Windows operating system has been pre-installed in the same language are the unit was delivered. If you buy the laptop in Ukraine the OS language is Russian, and if you buy the laptop to the United Kingdom if the OS is in English.

    @CarbonXer: I put t know what Setup you use, but usually the drive HARD must be formatted before you start the OS installation procedure. If you do not want XP Home, why do you install another operating system on the unit?

    To all: Happy New Year

    Best regards

    I didn't upgrade because I read several reviews that said if you didn't have a touch screen that you would have difficulties to navigation in some applications. What apps not said.

    What you say makes no sense and I question the validity of these comments.  Update to Windows 8.1 will do more good than harm.  Very few people who have updated have experienced problems, so comments to keep your receipt no logic.

    Here's something you can do.  Download Macrium reflect free and create a hard disk image on an external hard drive, don't forget to create the rescue disk.  Once done, update your system to 8.1.  If you have any problems, then you will be OK.  If it doesn't work or you have problems you can restore the backup of the image on your system that will put the computer to Windows 8 with no ill effects.  An image backup of your system from time to time is the best thing you can do.  You will have no problems with the help of recovery disks, reinstalling programs and data.  Many people use this method and have no regrets.

    Don't be afraid of it, it is a very useful tool.

  • Stuck in the automatic repair of repair could not your PC loop to win 8 on HP laptop

    I bought a new HP 15 '' Notebook in December 2014 with 8 Windows preinstalled. After loading the applications and copy the data from the machine it replaces, I stop the machine and got the familiar window "Updating - please do not power off ' message. However, when the auto reboot occurred auto repair window appeared with a message indicating that the machine cannot be repaired automatically and advising me to check the log file C:\Windows\System32\Logfiles\srt\SrtTrail.txt for the details of the problem. After I found the option to command line of auto repair-> troubleshooting-> Advanced Options-> command prompt, I found that the default drive called X:. After changing the C: with the "c:" command, the SrtTrail.txt file in the specified folder contained many successul test reports and the string "Startup Repair tried several times but still not determine the cause of the problem", if this file was not useful to determine the cause of the problem.

    In the command window, I was able to run

    Bootrec /fixMBR
    Bootrec /Fixboot
    Bootrec /rebuildBCD

    successfully, but after reboot I got the loop.

    I also tried

    CHKDSK c: /r
    CHKDSK d: /r

    but after reboot I again re-entered in the loop.

    I have not yet tried the reset option or update as Microsoft Office 2010 license key may not support another activation.

    Are there other actions I can try before I resort to reset or update?

    Hi Simon,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I really appreciate the efforts made to try to resolve the problem. I understand and it is regrettable that the laptop is stuck in this loop. You can perform a system restore using the installation media for Windows 8 to restore the laptop to point earlier in time. However, given that Windows 8 has been pre-loaded on this laptop, I would recommend contacting the manufacturer for recovery for Windows 8 media.

    Once you get the recovery media, you can perform the restore of the system following the steps below.

    a. insert the installation media and restart the computer.

    b. select language and click Next.

    c. select repair your computer and click on Skip this drive.

    d. select Troubleshooting and click Advanced Options.

    e. here, choose the automatic repair option and follow the instructions prompted.

    Important: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed after this date are deleted.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

    Each PC there own unique key, you can't use the same product key, if you have another product key for the edition, you can use the same DVD to update the other PC.

    2. I will be able to run different applications on the screen & names of account on the other PC.

    Yes, you can.

    3. each PC will have a different MS, google or another account is not linked.

    You can use different accounts or the same account. If you want to use the same account, but does not synchronize the same settings on each PC, just turn off the PC sync.
