Windows 7 is AGAIN, once AGAIN!

Receive an email from HP that they are once AGAIN more of their computers pre-loaded with Windows 7 instead of Windows 8 shipping!  This seems to be a tacit admission that Windows 8 SUCK!

I bought a HP Envy 700-027c in August and HATE Winows 8 and we tried to downgrade to Windows 7.  I have a HD "Virgin" I used to load Win 7, but there is no driver for everything!  Even with the Windows 8 drivers, that I managed to find would give me an error message.  And I couldn't find any Windows 7 drivers for my hardware.

I called HP customer service, but they wanted to get their 'Top' (i.e. pay for play) group.  Because I have HP deviating to Win7 as an admission of failure to win 8, it must be viable and no way to cost us down!  I have a copy of Windows 7 Pro that I would use.

Everyone?

Hello:

You can easily install W7 64-bit on your model.

Use the W7 x 64 drivers of this model (in the original category).

http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=5231222

The only driver I do not know the hand is for devices without wireless and bluetooth, but that should be no problem, once you post the hardware ID's for those.

After installing W7, please post the hardware ID's for the network controller and the bluetooth controller.

Use this guide to find out how to find the hardware for a device ID.

  • The configuration of Windows Update loop again and again and again...

    While on my computer, I received a pop-up to restart my computer for Windows updates.  I fact and 2 of the 3 downloaded.  For the 3rd, my computer restarts, the vista logo appears and the screen is blue saying 'configuration update 3 of 3 0% complete'.  The problem is it never moves 0, constantly restarts itself and has been done for more than a week (I can't leave my computer on all day).  I'm frustrated and want to come back on my computer, but no matter what I do (restart it, put it in safe mode...) it won't go past the updates configuration message.  What should I do to fix my computer and have it show the office, etc. ?

    Hello

    To see the version of Windows - Start - type in the search box-> Winver find at the top of the list and double-click it.

    (Or for XP Start - Run - type Winver hit)

    I guess that part of the question could be a driver which is really old or similar should not be loaded.

    This exit Windows updates on (after you have access) and stop the updates of the driver to load.

  • Windows 8 buggy again after many problems and refreshes.

    Hello, this has been my third discount over the last 2 weeks. Windows 8 always worked fine for me until about 2 weeks ago, when he got into a loop of auto repair after a reboot.  I tried everything to fix it and finally I had to update Windows.

    After that I finally managed to install most of my programs lost and began to enjoy my PC once again, suddenly the Windows Explorer crashed and began to close and restart all the time. When I tried then auto repair, it remained stuck in another loop, this time with a nice BSOD at the end I searched a lot on the internet and I tried everything I can to remedy this, but finally I had to réactualisiez.

    After this refresh Windows seems to work perfectly, and better than ever before, I could even install some updates, that I was not able to install before because of some kind of bug. Then after a certain update that upgrades to Windows 8.1 appeared in the app store. My first attenpt to install failed, so I googled the error code upward and run the update during a clean boot with updated graphics drivers. The update failed, but this time my internet connection is completely. After some research, I discovered the autoconfiguration service WLAN could not be started due to error 193: 0xc1. I tried all possible ways to fix that I found on the internet, but nothing has worked. Finally I have a third update of despair.

    Given that the update, I can't sem to be able to install half the updates and all click on boxes of the metro interface miss the text. When I tried to contact Microsoft support, I discovered my product id is "unavailable" and everything is just very bug.

    So, what should I do now? Perhaps yet another Windows refresh help? Is there meaning to perform a new installation? Is this necessary?

    I also finally have windows 8.1.

    Table of contents of the double thread:

    A clean installation resolves all possible hard disk problems?

     
    Hello, I had a lot of trouble with my PC for the past 3 weeks, including the BSOD and other kinds of bugs and crashes. I described most in this issue:

    Now everything seems to work again fine, but I get several kinds of problems. When I tried to install the video card drivers that my computer kept freezing, most Metro applications turns off after opening, some programs do not start sometimes and I get a lot of other mistakes. My computer needs correct the mistakes of hard drive several times a day.
    Everything points to the failure of the hard drive. However, I use an SSD. I don't know if this changes anything though.
    Then my last question was a clean install would stop all this evil for good? And if not, what might help?

    I just wanted you to know that I finally discovered the cause of the accident. Because those made completely inaccessible Windows, I couldn't dump files. But after each clean install Windows crashed after I installed a bunch of software. But I was not sure what software it is, so I made a wrong bet, and my computer crashed again.

    So, after that 2nd clean installed, I searched for accidents with the program I knew most, Deamon Tools. Each accident came when I restarted the computer after a session, I have installed or used Daemon Tools in. And indeed, it turns out be known to cause a BSOD. However, that sounded weird to me, because I used it for many months and never the source of problems.
    After that my 3rd installed clean, I decided to restart my computer after each program I have installed, in the case of another wrong bet, but do not install Daemon tools. And now, while I tap on my beloved PC, it works very well with all my software, with the exception of Daemon Tools.
    I also red published there also with pretty much every other ISO mounting program on Windows 8. No idea how to mount the ISOs anyway? (Edit: oh, it seems that Windows 8 is a built-in ISO film editor.)

  • Error when you try to publish movies with Windows Movie Maker: another user is running Windows Movie Maker on this computer. Please close the other session of Windows Movie Maker before starting Windows Movie Maker again.

    Movie Maker will not film because of "another user is running Movie Maker on this computor... publish »

    I'm trying to publish a movie on this computor in Windows Movie Maker. The files are .wmv with a band his .wav and are all stored on my computor. I performed this task with success several times and there is enough free space on the computor.

    When I click on publish, there are a few seconds where he tries to publish, but then the program goes into a gel and the dialog box appears with the following: "another user is running Windows Movie Maker on this computor. Please close the other session of Windows Movie Maker before starting Windows Movie Maker again".

    When I click Close, there is an icon of wmv on my desk with the title of my project, but it is empty. I am the only user on this computor and I am puzzled as to why this should be implemented. I tried to turn the filters but nothing helped. One thing that I tried was to publish the band sound and the titles and credits without video files and I found it worked.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you Volenteer J. How would you like to know if a .wmv file is corrupt? Is there something I can do to click the .wmv files that tell me if they are corrupt? I need to identify the files that are causing my problem.

    ==================================================
    Sorry... but it seems that I have more questions than answers.

    You said initially that you could publish the soundtrack and titles with success...
    I was wondering if you tried to add a .wmv file to see if you could publish?

    What was the source of the. WMV files? They are all from the same source?

    They were converted from another format? If_Yes_ maybe another
    Converter would be worth a try.

    You change them widely? (split, rotation, transitions...)

    There is a possibility that you could import the Windows Media .wmv files
    Encoder and convert them to... .WMV to .wmv. Seems pointless, I know...
    but it would create a new .version of the. WMV files and can fix that
    perhaps never the problem.

    Why Vista has suddenly decided to activate so often? OS is fully legitimate, fully serviced, all the installed updates blah blah.

    As such, I have no problem with the activation screen popping up, my main concern is if the activation of MS servers decide my product key was activated too many times and decided to tell me to go away (to say politely!), which would be pretty annoying because nothing on my hardware spec has changed over the last 4 months , and the only significant change was a year ago when I upgraded my HD because of an impending failure alert (SMART State).

    Not quite the answer to what I'm asking, system started, decided to reactivate and confirms thus reactivated, I want to know is why he had to reactivate again and again and again...

    This can be caused by a number of things - usually an anti-virus scan of the system at the same time that the licensing service is trying to verify the activation status.
    Nothing to fear (usually) - but if it persists, or the notification remains standing, you should run a report of MGADiag (when the notification is displayed) and post it here.

    Hello Greg,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

    I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

    You did any hardware or software changes to your computer before the show.

    Thank you for details on the question and your efforts to resolve.

    This problem may occur because of the corrupted Windows files or incorrect registry settings.

    To diagnose the problem, check if the problem occurs in safe mode.
    Refer to this article:
    Start your computer in safe mode
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=Windows-7

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

    Please refer to the suggestions of Mr Andersen replied on September 4, 2010 and check the problem with folders.

    Note: Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
