Try to reinstall windows 8 after fees and crash of pc to install Windows 7

At the time I was running windows 10 technical preview and I was having problems with my computer to the point that he eventually left and constantly projected blue. I ended up having to re - install windows 7 which was the only drive I have Windows. I already had 8 windows before I had installed the technical preview. I used the wizard upgrade upgrade windows windows 7 to windows 8 when windows 8 are out. Now, I want to be able to return to running windows 8 because some games will not start because of windows 10. I have in the world have looked for a solution but can not find a. I don't know of any way to prove that I bought windows 8 to get my product key.

You must log on to the same site that you downloaded it since before, your order history will prove that you have Windows 8 and you can retrieve your key.

Otherwise, you need your receipt email they you when you bought it.

If these two are dead ends, then you must buy it again.

    Hello

    I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.

    If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...

    1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.

    2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA

    3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html

    After the back if your BIOS is IDE / ATA

  • When I try to reinstall Windows XP on my Toshiba laptop, it works until I reboot. Then it says nvrd32.sys not found: press any key to continue.

    original title: NVRD32. SYS ERROR

    When I try to reinstall Windows XP SP3 on my Toshiba laptop, it works until the first reboot. When I boot on CD it comes up saying nvrd32.sys is not found: press any key to continue. When I press a key it is said: the Installer failed. Press a key to restart your computer.

    So, I don't know what to do. I tried searching on google and found a set, but talk of computer that I couldn't begin to understand. Basically, what I consider somewhere or can I fix it myself? I just paid for a new disk of Windows XP SP3, so I'm not looking forward to having to pay someone to use it.

    Hello

    ·         Windows XP came preinstalled on your laptop?

    ·         If so, you have a recovery partition?

    ·         Where did you buy the disc of Windows XP SP3 for?

    nvrd32.sys file is a chipset driver and must be installed via floppy F6 during initial installation.

    Method 1: To do this, follow these steps.

    a. you can download the chipset drivers from Toshiba Web site and copy it to a floppy drive.

    b. press F6 at the start of the installation of Windows XP.

    c. follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers for the chipset.

    Method 2: You can contact Toshiba to restore to factory on the laptop.

    Check your code CD Key corresponds to what Belarc Advisor reports to your existing installation.
    Note: Windows OEM installs usually come with a sticker on the PC or laptop and may not match the installed key factory.

  • 7020us dv7: Hp Dv7 7020us try to reinstall windows 7 from USB with new HD and RAM sticks.

    Hello

    In a bit of an affair with my Dv7. The laptop started to meet a load of startup error. Try using the recovery in Start menu tool led to a blank screen. You try to start windows normally flashed a blue screen too fast to read and then started the boot sequence all over again. I made a recovery from USB on my HP m6 s SO. However try to boot from the drive did nothing to change the way the computer tries to start.

    I decided to simply upgrade to a 1 TB Toshiba HD and 16 GB of RAM. Everything installed with ease by making sure that I was not on the carpet and have myself grounded to the metal structure of the laptop while working on it. However, starting with the new HD, I get the error SMART 301. If I try to run a diagnosis of HD happens "Not available" as the result of INTELLIGENT analysis and short-and long-term. I don't get then the no display device bootable detected. I tried to play with all the settings of the BIOS without changing boot.

    I don't know what to do now any guide I found said to use the recovery disk/drive in the boot menu. All of the guides I found for the creation and verification of a recovery device assumes that you have access to a functional desktop.

    Could I really have gotten a bad HD or s it showing not available because it is not configured for the SMART test?

    Any help is appreciated. I really enjoyed the two Dv7 I've owned and do not want it to turn into a paperweight.

    Although he remained until about 03:00, I had actually work on my own after few more search.

    I found a discussion saying that USB flash drives created using the Recovery Manager contains the recovery tool, but not a copy of windows for the restoration of the system. Given that I made a copy of the recovery media with my m6 SO, I was out of luck.

    Do some research more I found an article from a reputable site which links to a mirror of the files digitalriver. I don't link or discuss much more I know most of the forums do not like the word 't'.

    I however checked checksum SHA1 file against the official registration of the ISO file windows.

    Formatted the USB stick which was the Manager of recovery on it and turned it into a bootable USB key. Downloaded the drivers listed on the site of HP to get my WiFi market to download the rest of them directly on the Dv7.  All checks very well now. The 1 TB HD no longer displays the 301 error.

    I tried to reset the BIOS and make also a BIOS for emergency return to zero. Not more than anything.

    Thanks for the reply it would have been interesting to see what we could have done.

    Can you confirm what I've read about the creation of recovery media regarding the USB is different from a CD?

  • Try to reinstall Windows XP after a virus but I have no disks.

    help a friend with his computer from hp, he has a virus and nothing is getting rid of him, try to reinstall operating system, but she has lost his drive, I have a dell drive but it will only install xp on dell computers, any advice on what I can do? I tried to put a hard drive recently in his computer which had xp on it but it does not recognize. I just get a black screen with a blinking white line.

    original title: install problems for xp

    Read HP PC troubleshooting and maintenance Guide.  Put the original disc HP in the machine (assuming that he collapsed or the interface is not dead), restart, press F10.

    If the system re - installs correctly, create the recovery media when prompted to do!  There are two DVD-r or CD-12 r.

    BTW, if the system does not at all, you could try to create the recovery disks by searching for the software in the start menu-all programs-Accessories-System Tools online online online until you hit F10...

    In addition, after installation, goto WWW.HP.Com support and download upgrades or updates of drivers for their system. No member of this forum is omniscient!  Information you provide; the best responses!

  • Errors in the world when you try to reinstall Windows XP on a new hard drive.

    Original title: errors everywhere!

    Hi all:

    I recently bought a new hard drive (seagate momentus xt) for my older PC toshiba M70 laptop. I tried to re - install Win XP on the recovery disk (which came with the laptop) but I got a black screen with cursor. I repeated the collection, same thing. To check that all was well with the disc, I scanned and then installed ubuntu 9.04 it work perfect! What is interesting is that in the prior installation, he showed that win xp has been installed on the disk. Then I tried to re - install win xp - then I got this error Grub 17... I went back with the facilities and now I'm at a point where I get a message "error: unknown filesystem grub rescue >" (after the installation of ubuntu 11.04, then windows again). I don't know what to do. What I want is my xp back, I can't get ubuntu. Help, please.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi ARolle,

    ·         It is reinstall drive?

    Method 1: Load default BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) settings, and then restart the computer. Make sure that you have the CD drive set as first boot device. Check the settings by consulting the manual or call the manufacturer to do so.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    Method 2: Try to boot from the CD and see if you can start the installation.

    Contact Toshiba to get more information on the type of disc you use to reinstall Windows.

  • Try to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium (x 64) on my desk. I need help to find the drivers.

    Some back-story to my question:

    A month ago, so I decided to reinstall windows on my laptop which had become slow and unresponsive. I did it using the key USB Installer tool that Microsoft provides and a file ISO of Win7. I used my old product key on the underside of the laptop and it worked fine. After installation, I found I was missing several base drivers. Since then, I found a lot of important drivers (wireless, its drivers, etc), but several of the 'minor' escape me because quite simply, I don't know how to describe the issue that I have without them to Google. For example, my mouse pad is no longer scrolls when I slip 2 fingers down it at the same time, some site images do not load at all and rather simply show a torn file icon (I don't know if it's the associated driver, but it started after reinstall) etc.

    I want to avoid these problems when I reinstall Windows on my sluggish office. Is there a good way to know what drivers I need? A list my computer can generate or one list of drivers ' required/normal' and other, I need? Or even a list someone else online of pilots, that everyone should have to use their computers to their full potential? I know that all computers have hardware different and like, but perhaps a general list of things you need to get with a new installation (that is to say, "get your graphics, sound, image,... drivers to a minimum, while that [insert here things] is recommended as well").

    Alongside this, is there anything that this is another important thing I should remember to do when you install a new copy of windows?

    Thanks, I know it's a bit of reading.

    Go to your computer manufacturer's support web site and search for Windows 7 drivers for your specific brand and model number.

    If there is no driver, your PC may not work correctly (No. LAN or WiFi, Audio, USB, etc.) after the installation of Windows 7.

    If there are Windows 7 drivers, then to download to a folder on your hard drive and install all of them, starting with the card drivers mother/chipset, LAN, Audio, USB, Graphics, SATA, Webcam, Etc., and so on.

  • Try to reinstall windows 7 on another computer with the old product key

    My computer has 7 starter and windows 7 upgrade system intalled. It crashed and no longer works.  I talk to technicians of Microsoft and they say its ok and will work - transferring the operating system windows 7 on my laptop current used. Well no dice, after my product key for them, Microsoft gave me the run around. Last night when I spoke with them, they said that a discount price was available because I made the original purchase for her. Is happening here? Should I buy windows 7 again?

    I guess you try to use the upgrade license.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    Always try the following:

  • Try to reinstall Windows 7 64 bit

    I'm trying to re - install Windows 7 64 bit on my machine. I was installing my original XP you try to upgrade with the 7 discs.  For some reason any when I put in the disk of 64 bit I get an error message saying it is incompatible, which is strange, because this machine has been using 7 (64 bit) for about three years.
    When I run the Advisor tells me 'no problem '. I installed 32 bit without problem. Even after that, when I put 64-bit disk, I always get an error message. Damaged drive?
    Help?
    Intel (r) Core (TM2 Duo CPU E7500 2.93 GHz
    RAM: 4 GB

    In order to install Windows 7 64-bit, you must boot from the disk, could not start the installation from a 32-bit version of Windows such as Windows XP.

    Boot from the Windows 7 64 BIT DVD

    To learn how to change your BIOS options to boot from the DVD drive, the following tutorial:

    http://notebooks.com/2011/05/05/How-to-load-BIOS-and-change-boot-configuration/
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  • Try to reinstall Windows 7 on an Inspiron 7720 - "OS not found" error

    Hello

    Then; I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 7720 with a reformatted hard drive and I need to reinstall windows 7. I do not have the original relocation provided with this exact laptop DVD but I don't have any Dell laptop to another (a Studio 1558) and another disc of Windows 7 from a desktop computer (drives and OS that was on the laptop before the failure of HARD drive are all Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit). When I turn on the laptop with a drive and hit F12 and then select ' CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive' in the boot options screen displays "Operating system not found" immediately and remains on the screen until you restart.

    I perform a full diagnostic check and everything going on, I made sure the CD - RW drive is no. 1 in boot priority (not imagine that questions if I manually select it). The HARD drive and CD - RW drive are detectable in the BIOS too... I have no idea what the problem is, any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Many thanks in advance,

    Looks like the optical drive may be defective... You must try the new installation via the USB port. At this point, I would recommend arm SecureBoot and UEFI. Clean then install Windows 10 RS1:
