The OS disc is delivered?

I have a Slimline s3500t, who bought the farm just two years in his life

I need to reinstall the Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (32-bit) that was already installed before the PC being shipped to me.

Now, for the stupid question of the day: HP is shipping the OS disk actually with the computer? Because I can't find it in the plastic bag with all the other disks of software that were shipped.

So, I'm looking for simply not enough hard, or for some reason any unimaginable not HP will not ship the disc of BONE with the PC?

The operating system on the hard drive has been installed for a set of different hardware then this is probably why it will not start.

The license OEM Windows on this hard drive is linked to your original PC. It's only a question of law.

  • Equium A100 - unable to boot from the bootable disc

    Equium A100-549

    My son s partner has a 2 year old Toshiba which has become slow over time. I had done a backup of the system with office installed etc using Acronis. Anyway, decided to rid running Acronis and recorded image. The program runs normally, and he falls down to a denial of service as the ready to restore screen. It is then with the cursor flashing as usual and then it crashes, and doesn't allow you to access the image.

    I am that it can be altered, so reinstalled Acronis. Make an Acronis boot disk to run the image, and he does not take into account the disk boots directly to the normal hard drive (IDE 0) still no joy. Then I tried the restore of laptops disc. In the BIOS, I said peripheral CD as everything first and also the restore disc says place in the drive and turn off.

    While it starts up press F12, which brings a menu allowing you to boot from the CD drive. I did, but it doesn t appear to look at the CD and just load windows from the HARD drive. I removed the CD for system devices and rebooted. He found and added the new device to herself and asked to reset. Still no joy!

    Scanned with Norton, but still not good. Norton removal. The result is the same. Able to read the CD and also write to it as well. Diagnosis Toshibas ran on the unit and everything seems ok with it.

    Tried to make a bootable flash stick on floppy, but it is ignored, well specified the amorçage using other devices.
    Basically, it seems that I can t get it to watch prior CD onto the HARD drive.

    Flashing the BIOS would heal it? -Registry error causes this?

    Y at - it everywhere where I can talk to someone from Toshiba about this?

    Any info / help much appreciated

    Hello Nick

    Put the delivered device DVD recovery DVD and turn on the laptop. Press the C button and keep it pressed for a few seconds. This will force the DVD player to read the DVD, and I hope that you will be able to use the DVD of recovery for the installation of the OS.

    If possible, test it with some other bootable CD installations. Please post the results.

    Having too many CD/DVD programs can cause strange problems, especially if they're loading of parts of
    themselves at the start because they will be competing for resources. This does not mean that this issue has been
    caused by those, however, it's a possibility depending on which and how many you have installed.

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    Burning at low speed, or by using the master could help. A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    Brand of the CD or DVD drive can also be the problem. Low quality (cheap brands) are always problematic.

    CD/DVDs have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
    tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

    How can I get preinstalled HP software back?

    Tell us about the hard drive crashed.  You can link it to your desktop and make a check disk on it? Which can make new bootable.  If you don't care the utility partition and recovery being installed (you really won't need if you download and make the disc), and then download it here (you might put in your key Microsoft 25-digit Windows 7 Pro code):

    I get the same message continuously when I am bootcamp Windows 7 on my iMac mid 2010.

    I have read through the other threads here and searched online and nothing that I don't seem to make any difference.

    I have a iso, tried to burn on an external drive and a FAT format USB key.

    Downloaded the package of appropriate support bootcamp for my system.

    Followed all the instructions on the help page of training camp, but still can't make it work.

    I am gradually abandoned so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Chrischarge g ' Day,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand from your post, that you have a problem installing Windows 7 on iMac (21.5 inch, mid 2010). I use Boot Camp dual-boot my system as well, so I know that it is important we have this installation problem solved. I have several things for you to try.

    First of all, it's a good idea to make sure you have a recent backup of important data from your iMac. The article below will help ensure that you have a recent backup:

    Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac

    Then, I see you are using Mac OS 10.6.6. Let us make sure that you have the latest version of the software installed for this OS (10.6.8). Please try to update by following this path: Apple menu > software update.

    Finally, it is important to respect the requirements and installation steps to install Windows 7 and older versions on your Mac with Boot Camp. The installation steps are unique depending on whether it is a new installation of Windows 7 or an upgrade installation of Windows 7.

    Perform a new installation of Windows 7

    Follow these steps if you install Windows 7 on your Mac for the first time.

    1. Start your Mac in OS X.
    2. Use the tables at the end of this article to make sure that you have a Mac that takes in charge the version of Windows that you are installing.
    3. If your copy of Windows 7 has come on a DVD, create a disk image of the installation disc for use with Boot Camp.
    4. Connect a 16 GB or more large USB flash drive you want to erase. Leave this connected to your Mac, flash player until the Windows installation completed.
    5. Open Boot Camp Assistant in the Utilities folder (or use Spotlight to find it) and click on continue.
    6. Select only the options to create a Windows Setup disk and download the latest version of Windows software Apple support. Then click on continue.
    7. Insert your Windows installation disc, or choose your ISO Windows installation, then click on continue. Boot Camp erases your USB and he prepares for the installation of Windows. Once the flash player is prepared, close the Boot Camp Assistant window to exit the application.
    8. Use the tables at the end of this article to find that Windows supports the software (drivers) you need for the version of Windows and the Mac you're using.
    9. Click on the link in the table to download related software.
    10. Once the file is downloaded, double-click it in the Finder to decompress (unzip) it.
    11. Open the folder that results. Look for the following files in this folder and drag them to your USB Flash drive. When you are prompted if you want to replace the existing items on the flash drive, click Yes.

      $WinPEDriver$ (file)
      AutoUnattend.xml
      BootCamp (folder)

    12. Open the Boot Camp Assistant again, and then click on continue.
    13. Only select the option "Install Windows... or later."

  • Click on install, and then follow the prompts on the screen to re-partition your hard drive and install Windows.
  • When you have completed the wizard, your Mac restarts with Windows Setup. When you are asked where you want to install Windows, select the BOOTCAMP partition, then click on drive Options and format your Boot Camp partition.
  • Follow the prompts on the screen to complete the installation of Windows.
  • Perform an upgrade of Windows 7 installation or an earlier version

    You can upgrade to the existing installations of Windows XP or Vista to Windows 7. You need at least 10 GB of free space on your Windows partition.

    1. Start your Mac in OS X.
    2. Use the tables at the end of this article to make sure that you have a Mac that takes in charge the version of Windows that you are installing.
    3. Download software support for Windows (drivers) bound to the table, or locate the OS X Install or the restore disc supplied with your Mac so rated.
    4. Decompress (unzip) download it and place it on a USB drive formatted in FAT (MS-DOS). Let this flash drive connected to your Mac during installation.
    5. Start your Mac from the version of Windows that you currently have installed.
    6. Use the Windows Installer to upgrade to Windows.
    7. After Windows Setup is complete, your Mac starts in Windows. In Windows, open the file "BootCamp.exe" on your USB stick or the installation disc supplied with your Mac. Follow the prompts on the screen to install the related drivers for your Mac.

    After the driver installation is complete, connect to Windows to start using it on your Mac.

    I wonder if I had all the discs with my laptop Satellite A200-1CR, because I can't make heads or tails of the files on the recovery DVDs. Where are all the programs that I should get with the computer., and I had everything installed from the beginning. I want to reinstall windows, but I am concerned if I have all the programs like: winDVD and Norton Security and all the driver.
    Thank you!

    Hello

    The Toshiba Recovery DVD is only one of the disks that came with your laptop.
    On this DVD, you'll find a Toshiba recovery image that contains the operating system Windows, drivers, tools and additional software.
    If you want to redefine the laptop to factory settings then just boot from the recovery disc and the installation will begin.
    But note; the recovery DVDs will format the drive so HARD integer if necessary backup data.

    Other programs like Win DVD or Norton Security are OEM versions and, therefore, are only on the Toshiba Recovery DVD. It of not possible to download it!

    Hello, can someone please help.

    I don't have a model Tecra M9. PTM90E-05700WEN serial No. Y76875H professional XP operating system.

    The problem I have is as follows - I would like to reset the machine back to factory settings, I have the product recovery disc that came with it as well as the Microsoft Office Basic 2007 license key.

    Instructions on the cover of the album simply say "insert the first disc in the drive and turn off the computer. Turn on your computer while keeping the F12 key. Use the cursor keys to select the optical disc drive in the menu. Follow the who make their appearance on the screen. »

    Problem # 1 - I only have one disc, I can certainly say that I have lost. instructions refer to "first record suggesting there is more than one. The disc I have is clearly marked "product recovery". There are some numbers on the disc namely - GMR400776EN0 and also SD124219 of CD.
    The disc is also clearly marked Microsoft Windows XP Professional.

    Problem # 2 - when I make the instructions above, nothing else that the system starts normally. I can assure you that I am pressing F12 before the opening of Windows.

    I don't get the option to select anything and even less the optical disk drive. I tried several times but always the same result.

    Otherwise, I've tried - using the F8 key button brings up options menu, ie SafeMode etc etc work, but nothing referring to fix the computer.

    Press and hold 0 then that until the computer starts.

    Best regards and many thanks

    Hello

    Tecra M9 is older model laptop so method with F8 or zero will not work.

    The instructions are nothing else than the General instructions and not written for your Tecra M9 only. Recovery image is not the same for all models of laptops. They are so different with some laptops, there is a disc only, but with some models, there are two disks.

    I believe you when you say you've got a disc only.
    How to start recovery disc installation there are three methods:
    -Start Notepad and enter the BIOS settings > change the boot order and put the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device.
    -key c close several times to start laptop. This will force the optical disc drive to be the first boot device.
    -start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu. Place the recovery disc into the optical disc drive, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

    Please test all these methods and send feedback.

  • Tecra A9 - F key which activates the restore disc?

    I need a reinstallation of Vista on my Toshiba Tecra A9 and I made one before, but forgot which key F active restore disks.

    I tried all, but don't see anything that I recognize. For example, I found the BIOS, and I see under F8 'restore your computer' and Modus without danger, but not choice either for formatting and installation by CD-ROM.

    Hello!

    Please wait a moment: you have already reinstalled Vista but now you want to do a fresh install again?
    And what drive did you use to reinstall Vista?

    If you created the recovery disc Toshiba you only have to boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. Then you come back to factory settings.
    But you can also restore factory settings if you use HARD drive recovery option, but this is only available if the original Toshiba Vista is still installed. So if you have installed Vista using a disc of Microsoft you can t use this option.
    Normally, you can start recovery disc option HARD on European laptops if you go into the advanced boot menu if you press F8, and then select Repair my computer. Then, it takes time and a new screen appears where you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option.

    Moreover, what Tecra A9 you have exactly? What is the code of PTSxxx on the lower side?

    Good bye

    Hello

    Usually you could order the ASP in your country, but I m not very well that if you will be able to order this disc because the P10 is an old notebook series and possibly the recovery discs are not more available for this model.

    However, you must contact the ASP in your country to get a confirmation.
    Maybe you are a lucky man and the CD is available.
