Stuck trying to install vista OEM on HP Pavilion with motherboard replaced

Hello

I have a HP Pavilion with Vista pre-installed OEM. The machine is out of warranty HP and it was purchased while I lived in the United States. I am now back home in the United Kingdom. In any case, the motherboard is dead (common fault on the model of machine, I got) so I replaced and got Vista working again by using the product key that is stuck to the case. Vista then I messed up with a virus and so I trashed it and tried to re - install using the rescue partition and backup discs that I created. None of these options do know as changed the motherboard. I now put Linux on the machine and most of the time, Miss me not Vista. However, my son has an Ipod Touch who needs ITunes and used to run Linux. Yes, there was one I can get vista's new media and reinstall vista, and then turn on again? Really, I can't justify buying a new copy of Windows, so I have a valid license and that you need to run ITunes.

It makes me feel a little cranky. HP are without help, beyond their warranty period.

See you soon.

In this case, because it is only a replacement for any problem with HP Recovery Software/process, contact HP.

This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

  • Tried to install Vista Service Pack 1... epic fail

    I tried to install vista service pack 1 and had no luck. I downloaded directly from Microsoft and installed. After waiting and waiting, my computer had restarted and said "changes in the Installation failure-recovery '. Now, the computer starts only in safe mode. I ran the check disk and the system started fine then. However, I turned off the computer after that and he returned only safe mode.

  • Install Vista OEM giving no end of trouble

    So, I have two computers right now, and I am trying to install the version of my Vista OEM on the first computer.

    The first computer I bought from dell on 3 or 4 years back, and he came up with an OEM version of windows vista and a disc re - install. It's the computer, on that I try to install Vista, but that's the problem. This computer has 4 SATA ports, but 3 of them are broken, so I can connect only 1 SATA, my CD-ROM drive or HARD drive device. In addition to this, I can't boot from a USB device on this computer, so I can't install the operating system on the hard drive of this computer using this motherboad of computers.

    So I thought ok, I'lll just use my other computer to install the operating system. So I plugged my HDD from my work computer and installed the OEM of Vista version on the hard drive, it starts on this computer. I took the hard drive and put it back in the 1 sata port on my other computer to work, and I get a BSOD... I read that the OEM of Vista version cannot synchronize a motherboad, but this is ridiculous. I bought vista for this computer, I ran vista on this computer for 4 years now, until I temporarily used this drive in my other computer. Now, I am very disappointed to find that I can't install vista on the computer vista was originally bought for...

    [b] for a long time, has not read [/ b]

    I have a product key to do this, so I wonder if there is a legal Vista download, that I can install on my HARD drive using a computer, then put the HDD on another computer and activate with my code product, without getting a blue screen of the dead...

    I tried everything, short of resorting to piratebay, which is looking very tempting right now.

    Hello

    OEM licenses are tied to the card mother original and as part of their installation

    If you can't use OEM license in another machine

    and even if you get another disc of vista around and install on the other computer in enslavement to a hard drive and then move you still incorrectly installed the motherboard drivers problem

  • TRIED TO INSTALL VISTA SP1 NOW I'M DEAD IN THE WATER

    I am running Vista Home Premium 32-bit on a Dell desktop computer. A month ago, I came across a few major problems with my computer.  I couldn't get out of safe mode, programs are not run properly, blah, blah.  With a lot of help, I finally could get all back to what I thought was normal.  I ran antispyware, antimalware & and with other tweeks & fixed I have not noticed problems for about a week.

    So last night while on the computer, I got the message that Windows is ready to install an important update.  It was SP1.  I usually wait until the middle of the night & let Windows automatically install the updates but I thought why wait, then I started the installation.  He said that it could take several hours, I went to bed and I forgot about it.

    This morning I wake up to see that the monitor is all black except for a single line of printing:
    !! 0xc01a001d! 37354/98242 (\Registry\Machine\components\derivedata...)

    This printing line flickered sort of as he wants, but he was stuck.  I failed to continue or stop so I finally did what was once called an illegal arrest... I don't know if there is a new term for this, but I think you know what I mean.  When I turned my computer back on, I got the message that something caused my computer do not close properly, perhaps a new program or software, and he suggested that I have let Windows find & try to fix the problems.  I clicked on that and the blue bar began to run through the progress window.  He says that it can take several minutes.  Well 2 hours later nothing had changed.  He was always doing exactly the same thing.  He wouldn't let me cancel so I let it run half an hour.  Then I finally made another "illegal stop."  When I turned the computer back on I chose normal startup to the top even if the computer suggested I have start the repair program.

    Now I know whence the line of print that I mentioned before.  The screen was black except that it begins to show all the things that are installed on the computer.  At least, I guess that's what it is.  It was like when your computer is running antispyware or something & all files are being checked.  In any case, it's exactly the same thing that what I pointed out, it was on my computer first thing this morning except that it stopped at 28599/98242.  He has not moved or changed except it flashes as he wants to spend but cannot.

    What is the cause & do - what do I do about it?  Trying to do a system repair did not work & I can't get the computer starts normally then now what?  SP1 is installed on our laptop with no problems.  The only difference is that I let it install automatically.

    Please help before I have eventually throw the top of desk by the window!

    Sandee

    Sandee,

    David advice was correct.

    Read all the info on the link below.

    You need to download the ISO file, I talked to the computer on which you post here, not the broken one!

    It is a repair disc you need to do from this ISO file:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    If yours falls into the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.
    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • Getting error while trying to install Vista Ultimate 64-bit

    I'm doing a fresh install of Vista 64-bit. He asks for the product key, I can select the partition I want it installed on, and then it goes to the screen where it starts to copy the files and I get the following error:

    Windows Setup cannot reset the deployment engine. To install Windows, restart the installation.
