Pavilion 6650z: upgrade Windows 10
I was wondering if an upgrade to Windows 7 SP 1 Windows 10 could prove useful. My desktop computer Pavilion meets all the hardware requirements to run Win 10. It's a CTO in January 2011.
I've already tried an update to Win 10 on-site the weekend of the new year, earlier this year. While the update process, the indexing for my Corel Photo Paint Shop Pro X 3 process lasted several hours with no end in sight. It is at this time that I decided to go back to Windows 7. Could not find the link "back to the previous Windows" in the Windows 10 settings, I used my system recovery disks to reinstall factory on my Pavilion.
Before considering a new attempt to upgrade Windows 10, I would like to know if it's worth my time and effort to install Win 10. Also, I would like to know which is better: an upgrade in place against the clean install.
I read Windows 7 machines that met in the hardware configuration required to win 10 has failed as well in the upgrade process, that the results are mixed at best.
Thanks for your help.
Westin doc
You are right to be cautious about making the upgrade of Win10 on a Win7 PC.
I did it on several\ PC Win7 and it completely trashed both of them - where they were to be restored to factory settings to restore operation.
I wrote the following to inform people about the measures to be taken during the upgrade PC Win7 to Win10...
Desktop computers older Win7 tend to fare badly when upgraded to Win10 - mainly due to lack of HP Win10 drivers for older hardware.
If you are determined to upgrade to Win10, 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.

PC HP Pavilion P6 - 2317c: upgrade Windows 10
I bought this model HP Desktop HP Pavilion P6 - 2317c sometimes, back and it came pre-loaded with Windows 8.0. I upgraded successfully to Win 8.1. Since the free update to win 10 was announced, I waited for some instructions for the upgrade I had for my laptop. Do not get everything up to now, I sent a question to Microsoft as to why. They said that this version of Windows is not eligible for the upgrade. Can you tell me why? and what was wrong with the 8.0 Win that came preloaded and was one of the reasons I chose this model to replace my Win XP based PC. Please order this upgrade to detangle with Microsoft.
Thank you

Hello Parvezb ;
Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
I read your post on Windows 10 Upgrade and wanted to help.
I never cease to be amazed by the amount of misinformation that MS representatives give people on Win10!Rumors started about Win8 NOT be eligibile for the Win10 upgrade because people could not do it from Windows Update. But later, MS released information on the upgrade paths, and he showed be extensible Win8 to Win10 using Win10 media. So what rep MS told you that he was not eligible for Win8 doesn't even know their own products!
You CAN actually go to Win10 when you want - using the tool of MS Media: 10 Windows Installer using the media - Windows help authoring tool
With this tool, you have the option of (1) creation of installation of Win10 (USB or DVD) media, (2) download an ISO file, (3) update the PC directly. If all you want to do is updated on this PC, then choose the option: upgrade this PC now.Good luck

When I turned on the PC, my screen would go black. I turn off the monitor for a while, turn it back on. The screen would appear for a while then again black. After that 7 to 8 times to turn off the monitor, the screen would go black. This happens whenever I start the PC. After a restoration for a while before it started, the problem stopped.
When I installed Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool 2010 November KB890830 again.
No one knows why this happens?

Compaq nc6400 upgraded xp to win 7 can not get the fingerprint reader to work
I have upgraded xp to win 7, as we will have to do, but can't get the fingerprint reader to work. It appears in the devices that there is one on the machine. I downloaded the drivers for Vista, but they got nowhere. Read in many places as Vista drivers will work but I seem to need more than that. Any clue? Thank you!!!
Hello:
Yes, for Vista fingerprint reader driver is the only one available, but you must install the software HP protect Manager security tools for Windows 7 from the model which succeeded the nc6400, who was the 6910p.
You must also use the W7 driver quick launch buttons.
If your computer laptop bluetooth, you need the W7 bluetooth software and driver...
And you can use the version of W7 HP wireless assistant software.
You can also read the manual tools security protect manager, so you can understand how to use the fingerprint reader.

Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows of the ISO of Windows Installation Media Creation tool
I have Windows 8 on my laptop and I want to upgrade to Windows 8. 1. I have two options:
Since Windows Store
Installation of Windows Media creation tools.
Upgrade a downloaded ISO of Windows to install Windows Media creation tools 8.1 will ask me for any product key or it will update just as if update Windows Store?
I have no product key. Upgrade the Windows store and even ISO file?
I'd prefer what option? It will automatically activate over the internet, after that the installation is made via the ISO downloaded by Windows Installation Media creation?Hello
If you download the Installation of Windows Media creation ISO tool or create a flash drive, you will not have to download it again if something goes wrong... This would be my choice...
It will be activated after installation is complete, it will use the same license as your current 8 Win...
You will make the upgrade of Windows while it is running, only not by starting with ISO or any other bootable media...
The creation of media Windows Installation tool will not ask a key download ISO...
The creation of media Windows Installation tool will not install upgrade... You will need to start the process yourself...

Question about upgrading Windows 10 in Satellite Z830-10U
I see that the Satellite Z930 is supported for windows 10 Toshiba upgrades list, but no sign of Z830. I have a Z830-10U and trying to decide whetehr to resume the free update to windows 10 before it runs out in July 2016. Someone has done it successfully?
Although no rating by Toshiba, I just successfully upgraded my Z830 win 10 and everything seems to work. When win 10 was originally released my first attempt failed (blue screen and his motor boat) so I had to reinstall Win 8.
Before this second successful attempt, I checked with Toshiba to make sure the motherboard is compatible, downloaded "Driver of Talent" and drivers up-to-date and changed the power settings continuously to ensure no stops during installation...
All of it worked and now I WIN 10 work on my Z830. At this point I'm not sure works of Bluetooth which stopped when I upgraded from Win 7 to 8 Win.

Satellite L505-10z - Win 7 tools are not compatible with Win 8
My laptop is Satellite L505-10z. I installed Windows 8 Pro and I noticed that many drivers (especially PVAT) I downloaded at Toshiba support site Web (which are originally for Windows 7) doesn't work do not! When Toshiba released drivers for Windows 8? My model will be included in the driver updates?
Thank you
> downloaded from the site Web of Toshiba support (which are originally for Windows 7) works not!
Win 7 tools and utilities are made for Win 7 and Win No 8
> When Toshiba released drivers for Windows 8? My model will be included in the driver updates?
I think you should ask Toshiba. It is a user community.
But I think that Toshiba would begin with driver support if Win 8 would be OFFICIALLY available on the market. -

HP Pavilion x 2 10-n011nl (Suns: laptop locked after upgrade windows 10)
Two days ago, I bought a HP Pavilion x 2 (red sunset) 10-n011nl and immediately I started upgrading Windows 10. This medication is ok (no error message), but the first new starting system, the machine is in a loop! Only a black screen with white logo of HP and animation circular points. It is impossible to stop this, none CTRL-ALT-DEL or other. I have to wait for low battery condition (more then 6 hours!).
And even once, he repeats the loop.
What can I do?
Thanks in advance
Because it is new, maybe start to type Esc as soon as you press the button start. That should bring up a menu before starts the boot process. In this menu, click F11 to run the recovery. Who will restore the PC to 'new factory' and retry the upgrade of Windows 10. You might want to try the media creation tool page, if it fails again.
