What operating system is on my partition (hp 3500 pro)

Hello.

My 3500 pro comes with windows 7 pro is installed and windows 8 pro "recovery disc".

I see a recovery partition, but I was wondering which OS is on it. 7 or 8?

I was going to install a DVD burner and create backup media but if 7 is on the partition, it will be may not be not necessary.

Thanks in advance.

Make sure that you create your HP Windows 7 restore / recovery discs before you edit or change anything. If you don't create these disks, you will need to purchase Windows 7 restore / support of HP recovery if you decide you want to go back to Windows 7.

The HP Recovery partition contains Windows 7 Pro and you create your HP recovery media before using the included Windows 8 Pro disks. It is usually professional HP computers that come with downgrade rights and downgraded the OS installed.

The computer format microtour HP Pro 3500 is a class computer business and as such, may be the best answer to your question in the HP Enterprise Business Community. It is also possible to contact the HP Business Support Center for assistance with your question.

  • Partition Recovery - what operating system?

    I just bought a ThinkPad Edge E431 with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit OS pre-installed, but a free upgrade option to Windows 8 Pro (Windows 8 a license with downgrade rights).  Provided Lenovo recovery Windows 8 Pro (upgrade) DVD discs but nobody knows (or how to find out?) what operating system is contained in the recovery Partition from the factory on the laptop?  I expect that it is Windows 7 but the caveats users defined recovery disc to be sure to do a recovery image before moving on to Windows 8, which should not be necessary if the recovery Partition is Windows 7.

    Mtn-high hi,

    Welcome to Lenovo Community!

    We understood that your request is subject to OS pre-loaded on ThinkPad Edge E431.

    If the system is delivered with Windows 7 pre-loaded OS, then the recovery partition will be Windows 7 OS only.

    We recommend to create the current operating system reinstallation disk, and after you create the recovery disk, you can move the windows of Windows 7 to Windows 8 OS.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards

    Pass Vista (requires a minimum of 2 GB of RAM) and install Windows 7 (just 1 GB of memory for the 32-bit version).  If you buy the "Full" version (not the upgrade version) from Windows 7, you can Dual Boot between XP and Windows 7 (not all XP software will be running in Windows 7 and dual-boot will allow you to continue to use any software that you place a high value on the). More information on dual-boot below.

    You must first check if your Windows XP-based computer supports Windows 7  Go the the computer manufacturing technical support web site and see if they list Windows 7 device drivers. No driver Windows 7 means that you can not (the most often install Windows 7, if this isn't the case find Vista drivers).

    Hello

    This may depend on your condition. If the computer on which you want to install the new operating system is for typical home use, then you may want to buy Windows 7 rather than Windows Server 2008.

    Also, please take a look at the underside of the articles that might help you to choose the operating system.

    I was installing on a Linux 32-bit operating system when I created the doc. You can start with 12.0.4 for Linux x 86-64, but keep in mind that you want more memory on the server to take advantage of the possibilities of 64-bit memory allocation. Your CMS database will not be limited to 1.7 or 2.5 GB, and you won't have to waste his time with the base RAID card ETC.

    Memory is cheap. Add another 4 or 12 GB of RAM for this box if you want acceptable performance, unless you expect only to have a few simultaneous users.
