Why I can't install Windows 7 pro on HP 2000-2d70dx

When I try to install windows 7 pro 64 bit on my HP 2000 - 2d70dx is says something about an invalid? source.  If I try windows 7 pro 32 bit told me that I must install an operating system - never to read the installation CD.  CD 32-bit & 64-bit are the Microsoft installation CD

I tried several auto start of the CD and the system always says that I must install an operating system and will not be able to boot from the CD (although boot from CD is enabled in BIOS).

Help!

Hello:

Have you enabled legacy mode (which disables the secure boot) in the BIOS?

Windows 7 will not install or run if that BIOS setting is not changed.

Please read the info at the link below.

    Hi everyone I need help, why I can't install windows XP on my lenovo 3000 N500 4233-53U? When I boot on win XP and after he load some files it still stops & it become blue screen? Thank you...

    Hello, has the same task these day´s. This is my solution.

    1. create a custom Win - CD installation with nLite, www.nliteos.com and
    include Win Service Pack 3
    2. change the Bios setting from AHCI to IDE harddisk
    (Native WinXp doesn´t truly support AHCI Mode)
    3. when the installation of XP is complete, download and install the "Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver for Windows XP, Vista (32 bit) - ThinkPad" http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70477
    Follow the instructions "If you don't have a floppy drive...". »

    If this does not work with the step 1 and 2 and that you still have a blue screen during the installation, including the drivers of your installation of nLite CD

    Currently, there are problems with the download of the drivers on the Lenovo site...... so if you can not download the driver package... send me a message I´ll send you it by e-mail.

    Yes, it's misinformation. It is not true for any version of Windows.
    With the exception of the pack family of Windows 7 (updated, not a full
    version) the rule is very clear: it is a copy (or a license) for
    each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

  • Why I can't install Windows 7 on a GPT?

    YES... I have a UEFI (Asus P8H67 - M Pro) system.

    YES... I use the 64 bit version of Windows 7 (Home Premium).
    YES... I've already read 'Windows and GPT FAQ' and ' using GPT drives"so please do not refer to them here. (Links are displayed below for other readers)
    The disc, I try to install on a RAID drive (controlled by a 3ware 9750-4i).
    In my many attempts, I've known inconsistent behavior. But there are two things that remain constant (so far):
    1. Trying to install Windows on a volume of TPG bootable with the EFI partition and MSR already created will give me this error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is the GPT partition style. »
    2. Trying to install Windows on a volume of TPG bootable with not created partitions will simply cause the volume to be converted to MBR when installing.
    My steps are the following:
    1. Prepare my RAID drives: in a new table, I create a boot disk and regular data disc (without a startup disk explicit Windows won't see a boot disk).
    2. I sometimes that I need to disconnect other devices/storage controllers before launching the installation disc or Windows STILL won't see my boot as drive is bootable.
    3. I boot from the installation disk using the UEFI option in my BIOS.
    4. Once I'm in the Windows Installer, I get my drivers (for my RAID controller - and Yes, they are updated).
    5. Then in the command prompt I run diskpart and convert my RAID disk GPT.
    6. I sometimes also create partition EFI and MSR (100 MB, 128 MB) it fill hoping to force Windows to install and maintain the GPT.
    7. I go back to the installer and make my attempt.
    It's obviously very frustrating. I think I've been playing with this for a week now. I have no intention to support the outdated technology. TPG is the future, and there is no reason why everyone (with hardware and software) should be forced to use it. I installed Windows 7 (from the same disk - making faith) on my Mac without any hacking environment or virtual. I was getting the same error for a short period ("Windows cannot be installed... "), but it seemed to settle for himself after a few attempts (which never does, but I'm not complaining).
    I scoured internet to seek answers, to see the countless discussions of people with similar problems and no solutions posted or solutions that do not correspond to the Bill. Can someone (Microsoft) Please lend a hand here?

    Thanks David, for your reply and your original post with some very useful information on this subject.

    It turns out the problem I've had has been implemented of the matrix RAID - the P8H67 - M PRO has an older version of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (i.e. raid controller) which does not support > 2.2 to disks.

    Apparently, version 10.5 or above the RST does support 2.2 to, however, is not available in the current (version 1003) asus bios.

    The mistake that I made was to go not in AHCI mode bios after failing with the raid - windows got confused and indicate only 280 GB. ACHI is very happy to install in windows mode.

    My solution is to use software raid in windows 7 (only available in professional or higher) until this that asus untangle a BIOS update!

    Thank you very much, Pete.

  • Can I install Windows 8 Pro 64 bits with a 32-bit Windows 8 Pro license key?

    I searched through the forum, it seems that there is no difference between 64-bit and 32-bit licenses. However, as I know suggested for 64-bit and 32-bit retail price are different. I get confused! If they are the same, then eveyone would buy a 32-bit and then install 64-bit... is it true? Your response is truly appreciated.

    Yes, the product key works independently of the architecture (32- or 64-bit), so you can use the same product key used to activate 32-bit Windows 8 Pro with 64-bit Windows 8 Pro.

  • HP Envy 23: How can I install Windows 7 Pro Windows 8.1 pre-installed slim like 23?

    Hello... I HATE 8.1... but I saw your list of wonderful driver for your laptop and I was wondering if it is similar to a HP desktop computer when removing windows 8.1.   I already asked HP for help, but they, unfortunately, are "unable" to tell me that I can even load Windows 7 23 want.  People very nice, but very limited information.

    I managed to find 2 new copies of Windows 7 Pro, more a have on hand software... obviously, until Windows has the world dislikes phone applications on a computer, we need backup copies!

    My brand new mess is a HP Envy 23 I just bought last Sunday and hates carefully.

    I got the USB backup, just in case, but to wipe the drive (if I can) and change the boot order (if I have will be tolerated), and of course, eliminating all additional platforms I could find if this is possible)... What do I need to save the facility from 8.1 to make bits andpieces and love its color and whatever work?

    And what on Earth is UEFI?

    Thanks in advance... I know that this forum is a labor of love.

    Six days in a 30 days return... Help!

    Knowing the complete model of the computer help, HP Envy 23-xxxxxx

    Try to downgrade your system would probably void your warranty and a challenge trying to find drivers that would work with Windows 7, a real headache.

    If you want to go this route, you need to disable secure boot and enable legacy in order to change the boot order.
