The upgrade of Windows 8 installation program that I downloaded last night is unable to create a Windows bootable USB installation. Whenever I have tried, it is just 0% and then gives an error screen that says: it cannot create the USB key. I even tried several (8 GB and a 32 GB) USB drives and none worked.

Someone at - it ideas?

This downloader legacy has been mounted with problems and all installation guy made him was below standards. As Windows 8.0 is completely obsolete. Use the new installer and get 8.1 Windows media that works directly (both with Windows 8.0 and 8.1 product keys). See here for more details:

http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-Microsoft-Windows-and-Office/Download-Microsoft-Windows/download-Windows-8-1-retail-and-OEM-ISO/

I recommend you back up the file image .iso and then later to make a USB bootable from it.

  • Acer Windows 7 upgrade kit does NOT work!

    Hi I have an Acer Aspire 5538 (4 GB of RAM and 220 GB of memory) I'm trying to upgrade to Windows (vista and both are family premium). I read elsewhere on the site that someone had the same problem as me and earasing everything on computer seemed to have worked according to your suggestions (so I did and put everything on my USB). Later, I used the "dics ghost" factory, which deletes the database from the computer to the factory settings. So I'm trying to upgrade and the first CD has worked well "Acer upgrade disc. Now, when I put in the second one it says that my pc is not compatible, and that my pc must be x 86 (32-bit) or x 64 (64-bit). I went into the "system information", and it clearly states "x 86 based PC" until I do?. The second disk named: "Windows 7 upgrade media" does not work!

  • Windows 10 Upgrade Wizard does not load.

    So it is a problem that also occurs in many other programs. I'm going to click on the Windows 10 Upgrade Wizard and it is a blank white screen. No text, no icon nothing.

    This opening queue results in this:

    I'm at a loss to know what to do, and it doesn't have this with any of my programs before July 14. Skype does exactly the same thing.

    Its a 64-bit computer. I think that it is an update of the system, but I don't know who it is, and also I tried to restore my computer to an earlier date, but only, he went to 15. Any guidance would be great

    I trained the same frustrating problem (even left my computer on all night I slept and, in the morning, the "Windows Upgrade Wizard" window was STILL white and white and nothing had apparently changed on my hard drive).

    Today, I think I found the solution to acquire freedom, 'Windows 10' upgrade...

    GO TO: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

    Site legitimate "Microsoft", you will use the 'media creation tool' and be able to improve your "Windows 7 - 8.1" computer on site (OR) you will be given the option to install support for upgrade to a USB FlashDrive (like me) or on DVD, to upgrade your computer at a later date. "

  • Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor does not install

    Hi I posted this on the Vista forum. I got 1 response suggesting I have try to download it again, as I did with the same result. The 2nd answer said not to post this question on the forum of Vista. If she is here now on this forum.

    I downloaded the UpgradeAdvisor a Windows 7 at the same time a running Windows Vista my PC Edition Home Premium and the other Windows XP. It will not install on each PC. I double click on the downloaded file and am asked in Vista to continue, I click "Yes" and then nothing happens. There is no sign of any program running or running any process that did not work until I tried to install the Advisor. Please can someone help. (I tried to disable the system security McAfee but that did not help).

    Well thank you for the suggestion of Steve of Microsoft Developer Network. I tried to download another copy to another location. Unfortunately exactly the same result. Yesterday I download about 5 times in different places, none worked, but I thought I'd try again today - same result. Am I the only person having this problem?

    I followed the advice on another thread closely linked to it. Someone (non-Microsoft) advised using a program called "Winrar" to unzip the file to the millisecond. You can download free Winrar (shareware). I tried and it works very well. It unpacks the MS then called "self-extracting" file downloaded from MS site above and shows you the content. I selected the provedure of installation for the Upgrade Advisor for 32 bits, and low and you installed the Upgrade Advisor on my machine.

    I ran with success of the counselor and am at a complete loss to understand why Microsoft technicians could not have told me in this simple direction rather than give me useless and very lengthy procedures which did not work.

    The adviser tells me that I can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or WIndows 7 MegaSuperCostULoads (or whatever its name). I'm not sure I want now, or if I trust Microsoft more. Maybe I'll switch to Ubuntu.

  • Satellite Pro A100 crashed during Windows BIOS upgrade, now does not start.

    Satellite Pro A100 crashed during the upgrade of the bios from windows (upgrade the bios using windows), now the laptop will not boot. I press the on switch and it gives me just a blank screen, so I think that resets itself. I really need help solving this because I have a University paper due in the next few days and I need my laptop!
    Close for any help.

    It's a scream! :_| : O

    This looks like a damage ROM module!
    How did you do the BIOS update? I have red in this forum that a wrong procedure or wrong BIOS can damage the motherboard.

    I think that it s a deal. I put t know if it s needed to change the entire motherboard or update the BIOS again but I n t think you will be able to do it yourself.

    I think the best way is to ask the Toshiba service partner in your country.
    I think they'll give you more details on the handling of the Fryer

  • windows XP F6 installation does not work - cannot install the drivers for the controller

    I want to install Windows XP, I press F6 toload the AHCI AMD drivers from a floppy disk, but the installation stops when loading. How F6 to stop and allow the loading of the drivers?

    You should be able to install the AHCI drivers and change the interface after Windows is installed.

    If you have not already installed Windows, leave the setting as native IDE and install it normally.

    If Windows is already installed or after you're done install, install appropriate drivers for your controller and then change the interface of AHCI.
    You may need the chipset drivers installed as well.
