Upgrade to Windows 10 works not

I am trying to improve my wife of Win 7 to 10 to win computer. When I run the upgrade from the white flag on my start bar I get the following message is displayed. From download - once the download is complete, you can start the upgrade, or schedule for later.

This message takes place for more than two hours and nothing happens. What should I do to get the upgrade to work.

E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

It takes a while to download. This will inform you when it is available.

You can try the upgrade manually:

Task of pre-required

When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

then

then

  • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
  • Reboot several times, and then try again.
  • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
  • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
  • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
  • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
  • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
  • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
  • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
  • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I've updated several PC Win7 Win10 - and they had all these problems in one way or another... so I wrote this to provide advice to people considering such update...

    You think about the amount of work that you want to post just to run Win10.  Seriously.  Old machine Win7 tend to come in two flavors when it comes to upgrading Win10 - really easy and really difficult.

    The really hard to upgrade computers fall into two categories: (1) those who are expandable to Win10 and works OK, (2) those who are not.

    Computers laptops HP, especially old Win7 machines, often came with two different graphics - and Intel chips and then either a processor AMD or Nvidia.  This was known as switchable graphics card or hybrid.  You have run using the Intel chip most of the time, but when you need additional graphics power, as in the game, the PC automatically switched over to the use of the AMD or Nvidia graphics chip.

    Problem is, this requires special graphics drivers to work, and while that those that are preinstalled on laptops Win7, these drivers simply do not exist for Win10.  These drivers are not available from Intel, AMD or Nvidia.  One way to tell if your PC has two different graphics chips is to look in under Graphics Device Manager.  If there are two different cards in the list, an Intel and AMD/Nividia, then you have this problem - and if you force an upgrade to Win10, you will have serious graphic problems and your machine will not work.

    However, if you do not have this problem, to CAN pass to Win10, but you must be willing to do four things:
    (1) do a full image backup of disk external drive or USB stick, capacity
    (2) changes to the reserved system partitioning hard disk recommandΘes mΘthodes,
    (3) use a different approach and maybe more than one, as Windows Update to do the upgrade,
    (4) prepare for a clean install.

    ---------------------------------
    1: backup of images:
    This is VITAL, because the machine is doomed to failure of the upgrade, and when that happens, you will learn that GoBack to Win10 function is NOT reliable, and that can leave you with a corrupt machine that will require the factory reset and lose all that on it, to get it working again.

    You can avoid this by making an image backup to an external hard drive or a USB drive using Macrium reflect (MR), which provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together.

    What I recommend is the following:
    (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
    (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
    (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

    NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.
    ---------------------------------
    2: System reserved for resizing:
    There is a small partition on the HDD with Win7 preinstalled machines known as system reserved.  It is something known as the boot loader code.  There is 100 MB format: all that is necessary for Win7.  But Win10 needs 350 MB and, in some cases, is NOT able to resize it on its own.  IF this happens, you must manually use a partitioning tool to resize it yourself.
    ---------------------------------
    3: use a different approach to upgrade:
    Windows Update is the simpler, but less reliable, way to do the upgrade from Win10.  A much better and more reliable way is to use Microsoft Media creation tool: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10 choose the upgrade this option now PC.

    After all this, you know that MS install drivers with only the most basic features.  Given that HP does not have drivers for your PC Win10, this limited functionality is the best you're going to get.  HP does not actively write new drivers from Win10 for the old PC Win7.  To keep all the features of your PC, your best shot is NOT to upgrade to Win10.
    ---------------------------------
    4: be prepared to clean-install:
    If you do all this, and after the upgrade, your PC works partially, this means that the upgrade is not well and stuff is still there the previous OS corrupt the functionality of Win10.

    You MIGHT be able to solve the problem in fact a clean install of Win10. Problem is that, often, a clean-install does not recognize prior activation, even if it should. So, before doing the upgrade, follow these instructions on the community forums Win10 on creating a genuineticket.xml file: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/23354-clean-install-windows-10-directly-without-having-upgrade-first.html

    You need more later to activate your pc Win10 after the installation of clean.

    -----------------------------------------------
    Good luck

  • Can I upgrade to Windows 7 or not?

    I downloaded the beta version of windows 7 upgrade advisor to my desktop computer and it has identified one of my devices incompatible with windows 7.  This device was the NVIDIA Nforce System Management Controller.  Everyone there knows what the heck this thing is and what it does?  The strange thing is, in my view, that this thing is related to the chipset on the motherboard that has 7 hardware compatibility list says that my motherboard is compatible with windows 7, the same thing with my EVGA Geforce 8800 GTS graphics card.  So my question is can I upgrade to windows 7 or not.  If this "system management controller" is not compatible which feature my system is going to lose?  Or Windows 7 will simply install something completely different, it's going to do the same thing this thing is now for me.  I know this may make me look like an idiot, but I am at a loss, and I don't want to pay the money to upgrade to windows 7 if he's not going to paralyze the functioning of my system.  Until there is only a minimum (and I mean minimal) information about it elsewhere on the internet.  Any help and clarification would be appreciated.
    Motherboard: Asus M3N78-VM
    Processor: AMD Phenom II 955
    Graphic card: EVGA Geforce 8800 GTS
    RAM: Kingston HyperX 8 GB DDR2 memory
    Current installed OS: Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

    A missing device driver will simply not seen by windows until one is added. If the adviser says incompatible, it is. If your system cannot function without this device, Win 7 will not install correctly. I would go on the nvidia for info on this site. It's perhaps not salvageable, but nvidia could only tell you that for sure.

    Hi Tuulah6441378,

    Photoshop 4 and 7 are very old versions, downloads for them are no longer available and the operating system you are using is the most recent, so there will be compatibility problems.

    Adobe has not tested these applications on newer operating systems.

    Did you do an upgrade on the spot or a clean installation of Windows 8?

    Back to Device Manager. Is there something here at all in another category, indicating that she has a problem any?

    There are some events that must happen.

    Select Add/Remove Windows components on the left.

    Hello world

    I was downloading Windows 10 for 3 days.  It all ways total bed 2 847,8 MB

    It starts at 0% and ends at 100%

    Then he starts again at 0% and ends at 100%. The total number of 2 847,8 MB never changes.

    In my view, it will not download on its own and I have ti find someone looking to see what is wrong.

    Thank you

    Hello Orwell,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    You have a Windows 7 installation disc?

    As you cannot start your computer at all, I suggest to run a Startup Repair to repair the damaged boot system files and try to boot into normal mode. See the section: How to use Startup Repair in the following link.

    Startup Repair: frequently asked questions

    If this does not help, try to boot from a disc to install Windows 7 on the Windows recovery environment mode and then try to run the Startup Repair tool and check if you are able to start normally with mouse and keyboard.

    Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

  • Vista upgrade to windows 7 does not and could not roll back to vista

    I bought a retail pack for the Windows 7 upgrade. I tried to install it yesterday evening - took to always (more than 4 hours) and froze in several places for more than an hour. At the last second stage (installation of windows features) - he crashed and closed. Reboot, it says "set to level failed - rolling to the previous operating system". After about 1/2 hour of rolling back - it crashed again - blue screen "STOP: c000021a.» System fatal error. Process of initial session or the processes of the system ended unexpectedly with an error code of 0 x 000000000 (0xc00000001 0x0010037c). system was stopped.

    the laptop (a Dell Studio 1555) cannot be started and is not an operating system. A terrible catastrophe for what seemed like a simple upgrade. I followed all the instructions in the Windows tutorial "upgrade Windows vista to windows 7 ', no warning that I should set out a clean boot which I've since found in blogs. I'm mad at Microsoft for releasing a product that will destroy my system when you follow their instructions.

    I obviously need to re - install an OS - my question is... I have an other laptop Dell Studio 1555 which came with windows 7 and I have the installation disc. Can I use this disc to do a fresh install on this laptop and use the product key that came with Windows 7 upgrade disc?

    Otherwise, it will be a long and difficult process of re - install Vista, upgrade to SP1 and upgrade to Windows 7, and then potentially have fail again. Please notify.

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD
    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.
