  • HP Pavilion DV6-6c35dx: potential problems with OS driver install the new hard drive?

    I want to spend the hard drive of my laptop, but my laptop did not come with recovery discs. I buy a full copy of Windows 7 Professional, but I did save it... because when everything has failed, I guess. If I'm able to reinstall Win 7 Home or if I have to install Win 7 Pro, how can I be sure to reinstall all drivers HP (p. ex., trackpad, meaning cool, beats audio, etc.) for my machine? It is best to download the drivers before you install the new hard drive and have them ready on a flash drive. or is there an easier way? Thank you.

    I personally prefer the new OEM installation & then get required drivers to download for HP support for your laptop model.

    It is slower and more difficult to do if it is not too well known, but the end result is much better.

    If your system has flaws you should try to fix first, but better long-term results come from clean install generally.

  • Satellite l.660-12 q - would the recovery disk rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition

    Talk about confusion. Does anyone know how to get a Toshiba C660 work after the HARD drive failed and the owner has stupidly NOT followed the instructions to make a recovery disk. Will be the recovery disk (if buy you one from Toshiba) rebuild the new HARD disk with a new recovery partition and install windows 7 (original OS) and accept the product key printed on the Windows license, attached to the base of the laptop. I have read a number of suggestions, but these have been considered incorrect by others.

    Surely, Toshiba must have a way to sort this problem.

    They read these messages?

    Hey Buddy

    I don't think it's really complicated, that I could find all the information about the recovery procedure in the user's manual

    The recovery disk must be created on the first day of purchase its recommended to create one in case something would be wrong with the HARD drive.

    The recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package containing Win system, drivers, tools and all the stuff pre-installed on the notebook.
    You bought the laptop and the system has already been activated so that you have need of t the key placed at the bottom of the unit.
    In addition, the use of the recovery disc formats the drive HARD integer (partitions too) and set the laptop in the same condition as at the first day of the purchase.

    There is also another option to recover the notebook called HARD drive recovery. This HARD drive recovery requires no recovery disk. The recovery disc HARD would be to use format ONLY partition C (System).

  • Problem with Windows Update after the new installation of Windows 7 Pro the Lenovo ThinkPad X 200

    I'm trying to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. The product key is easy to find on the sticker of the ThinkPad. However, the version of Windows is hidden (for example, I can't check that my ThinkPad had originally installed Windows 7 Pro). I was able to install by using a Pro Win 7 SP1 CD ROM I bought for another installation. I used the ThinkPad I was trying to make the new facility on the product key. I was able to activate the Windows 7 Pro using the phone call and my cell phone. I checked the activation! However, I have problems with Windows update. The product key may be a different version of Windows 7. If so, why did it install and activate OK? Y at - it a fix for this problem or I have to buy a new version of Windows 7 Pro? Please note that I have not yet installed all drivers Lenovo ThinkPad as I can't seem to install correctly. Thank you!

    Since the issue is updated to Windows, it is not a product number key.

  • Problem with PSE - 2 and the new 1.5 TB drive

    Hi all. First of all, I use my PSE - 2 recorded for several years without problem. AMD Athlon 7750 2.7 Ghz, 2.0 G memory bicoeur. WD 1 .5TB primary and WD 500 GB secondary drive. Win XP SP3. I recently had a disk fails and installed a new freshly formatted WD 1.5 TB as my boot drive. New installation of Windows XP and updates. When I install the elements, it now seems to install fine. The problem comes when I try to run the first time that I get "could not initialize Photoshop Elements because scratch disks are full '. Then elements shut, not allowing no not me nothing to do with configuring internal program. I tried unistalling and installing on the 500 GB drive, but still not the same error. I increased my page file memory does anyone know of a problem with the installation of the elements on a large drive or can anyone offer a possible solution to what I see? Thanks in advance for suggestions...


    JohnR.

    I think Barbara meant photoshop 7, which was a little before pse2.

    If you hold them Alt + right Ctrl keys after starting pse2, a dialog box

    should appear allowing you to choose the drive working (keep holding

    keys until the dialog box is displayed)

    If you have a recovery partition on your hard drive, try this to choose

    the drive working, then exit pse2. Then restart pse2 and

    Preferences > Plug-ins and Scratch Disks choose your hard drive regularly to the scratch disk.

    Newer versions of the EPS, the newer less than 3 or 4 don't seem to have this problem.

  • Re: Problems with Win7 boot on the new Satellite L670-17 x

    Hi guys,.

    Three days ago I got my new Toshiba Satellite L670-17 x. Installing Win7 was not a problem, but now (after the start of the third or fourth) I suddenly a big trouble with the operating system.

    When I turn on my laptop, it loads up until I can see the Windows loading screen. Then - both - the laptop stop working... I can only see the loading screen, but nothing happens. Turns off the light litte to the frontsite (which shows that the specifications of load/work). No error message.

    I want to avoid using the Toshiba HARD drive recovery, because I saved (important) documents on the desktop (I know... not very smart). I ask you to help me with my problem.

    (By the way: I already tried Windows repair system, System Restore memory diagnostic tool and start Windows Mode without failure).

    Thank you very much for your answers!

    If you cannot boot OS in safe mode, that, in my opinion, you have a big problem. I'm afraid only installation of HARD drive recovery will help you in this m.
    The question is what to do with this data.

    Perhaps you should remove the HARD drive and connect it to another computer to have full access to all of these external data. Copy them, replace the HARD drive in your Satellite and install the OS by using HARD drive recovery option.

  • I was referred to this site. Problems with installing Windows on the new drive.

    Greetings!

    I just installed a new hard drive on my Mini 311 1037. I bought the HP recovery discs. The operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium (I guess it was the correct operating system for that computer). The installation seemed fine, but after installing the drivers, I get the message, "Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Then after the restart, after the initial windows screen, I get a message that says "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "I atempted to iireinstall 3 times. All diagnostic tests are good: the hard drive, the memory. I have no idea what to do next. Help, please?

    If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

    Links to downloads of Windows 7 ISO files:

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

    Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to convert the ISO file you download. Link and instructions below. You need to a DVD + R or DVD - R. Or a flash drive 4 GB to use the USB method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation

    Use 25 characters on the COA key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then, go to the page support and driver to install the drivers you need.

  • Removed the HARD disk with MBR/BCD who installed Vista x 64 Business on the new HARD drive

    I have vista x 64 business installed on a HARD drive, but it was (and still is) installed on an older HDD aswell and the smallest, the result being that when I removed the old hard drive to put in another computer, I was unable to boot the copy of vista on the new HARD disk as the MBR or the BCD bit that allows me to choose what vista start is on the old HDD. Using the installation DVD I can get up the command prompt and run Bootrec.exe without the old HARD disk installed, which can find the vista installation, but fails to solve the problem. I'm not an expert so I can't properly use Bootrec.exe, and startup recovery also does not work, although it seems to say that something to do with the startup has been fixed. Is it possible that I can get the computer running without the old HDD without having to reinstall vista on the new hard drive? Currently, I put the old HARD return drive to start the new installation of vista.

    When you move an old hard drive to a new computer, the installed operating system will find new hardware (motherboard, etc.).

    A clean install is a normal requirement, as no drivers are installed for the new hardware on the operating system.
    Thus, it will not start.

    How to do a clean install:

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Satellite L30: CD player does not work with the new HARD drive

    Hello

    Just bought a new drive to HARD drive of 250 GB to transform my L30-115 has a home server.

    My problem is when both the new HARD disk drive DVD/CD-RW drive of origin are inserted into L30, the computer crashes and I can not even get into the BIOS (I have the latest edition).

    However, when I disconnect the CD player, system boots fine in a system of operating "plain" (command-line only) - BIOS recognizes very well and everything is fine. Idem: as I disconnect the HARD drive and connect the CD player, I am able to work (for example with a live linux system).

    The question is: * how to install a Windows operating system to a new HARD disk drive *? There is no option to boot from USB. What else can we do? I'm not going to invest more money into this old machine. I would like to install the Windows Home Server in there. There is no need to use the CD player later (all other operations will be performed by the network).

    Person not answering, so I'll do it.

    I was able to boot from USB external floppy drive, so the solution is to boot from external CD drive and install the system.

    It is not an exact solution, because the internal optical drive must be removed, so I'm looking forward to see updates to the BIOS level or other solutions for Toshiba.

  • Recovery disks do not work with the new hard drive?

    Hello, everyone.

    I have a laptop HP (pavilion dv7-1245dx) and the hard drive is dead. I had never gotten to burn my recovery disks, so I ordered new ones from HP. When I installed the new hard drive and popped in the disk to reinstall the operating system, it gave me the error message:

    "This PC is not supported by the system recovery discs. You can continue to recover this system with these discs. »

    Error code: 0100-30 FC-3602-3603

    The original hard drive was a Hitachi, 320 GB SATA

    The new hard drive is a WD 500 GB SATA

    Any assistance anyone can give would be great. :]

    Thank you for your time,

    C

    EDIT: Trying to recover a Vista operating system

    For anyone who has the same problem, I found a solution. I cloned the original hard drive using the Clonezilla fallback option. After using Clonezilla to image on the new hard disk, the partition which held that most of the data of the laptop is not mountable, however the partition containing the restore partition was a perfect copy. I turned on the computer, hit escape to access the menu (for a list of options such as boot order, etc, which included an option for recovery), and then choose recovery option. While the recovery discs, I received from HP refused to work with the new hard drive, the Vista restored cloned recovery partition without flaw.
