• HP Envy: Question of the installation media last 10 victory

  Greetings,

  Does anyone know if the last installation media to win 10 Pro is offered here?

  The only options when creating media are Win 10 or 10N Win when executing media creation tool.

  I'm under Win 10 Pro, build 10586, which is the last version that was released yesterday.

  The last control on the Win Insider site does more. ISO downloads but redirects the user to the site above. So I'm not sure what's going on?

  I have found no documentation on the stick to win 10 USB created stating that is winning 10 Pro.

  Thank you

  Hemdani

  Hello tpetras ;
  
  I read your post about wanting to download Win10 Pro installation media and wanted to help.
  
  I actually did this yesterday - using this link: install Windows 10 using the tool of creation of media - Windows help

  MS has changed news media creation tool very recently and, while before, you could choose Home or Pro, now, they offer more choice, only 32-bit or 64-bit.  In both cases, BOTH family and professional editions are included on the media that results.

  In addition, as before, you can also choose to download an ISO combined 32-bit, 64-bit or create a USB key that contains all combinations

• As an owner legitimate Windows XP Pro (OEM 64), where can I get installation media?

  Simple question - I would like to download the installation media to reinstall a laptop that I bought with this OS on it, but it doesn't seem to be available anywhere from an official source from Ms.

  A lot of torrent sites do it by download, but they're all suspects because of the Canadian Red Cross, possibly indicating compromise of different software.

  Here's what I know on this topic (which isn't much):

  This is document HP support recovery command: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph07143 note the following: "HP maintains an inventory of recovery disks of replacement several years after the product was released. However, due to software license restrictions, HP is able to provide a recovery disc for a limited time. "This bodes well for you.

  I suggest that you post a question with the exact error, including the error code, the HP Windows XP Forum: http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Windows-XP/bd-p/itrc-279#.ULKOXIbn-wA you can also post the same question as a new thread (do not add to it) in the forum XP Repair and recovery here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1353879231110

  It is my understanding that you can use a generic "OEM" version of Windows XP with the product key on the laptop - also for a long time that the generic OEM CD is the same version that is indicated on the COST of the laptop (XP Home, XP Pro).  I've seen comments to the effect that the CD must also be the same service pack (if the certificate of authenticity indicates a service pack), but I'm not sure about this.  The problem in your case would be to find a generic CD OEM XP Pro x 64.  Here this one on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Windows-XP-Professional-32-bit-SP2-Full-Version-NO-COA-OEM-/110980131583?pt=US_Operating_Systems_Software&hash=item19d6ee6aff

  I noticed several other eBay offerings, which appear in the sale of the CD OEM XP Pro x 64 which include a product key.  I take no position on the question of whether items are legitimate or whether included product keys will work.

  1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  2. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose another restore point and then click Next.

  3. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

  4. click on finish.

  The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

• Windows Installer service is missing from my Vista 32 bit. How to re-install Windows Installer?

  Windows Installer service is missing from my Vista 32 bit SP2. How can I re - install Windows Installer? None of the 27 sets of update and Installer Cleanup solutions worked, a last resort option could work but it will not install without the Windows Installer Service.

  I tried each FixIt option, says the problem is solved, but isn't.
  I tried install Windows Installer 4.5, but it came back as not relevant to my system (because there is no previous installer to update).
  Tried a number of recommended patches, but they are all geared toward fixing the problems of Windows Update not a lack of Windows Installer.
  MicrosoftFixit50202.msi seems to have corrected Windows Update on my laptop but it won't install on Vista pc because there is no Windows Installer.
  I ran the installation disc the option 'fix' with the original, it finished but has not replaced Installer and nothing was fixed.

  How can I put the installer of Windows on my computer?  If there are files on the original drive that can be put into drive C what are they?
  Someone suggested to uninstall Service Pack 2, and then reinstall, but if I have no installer of Windows that may not work. Others said they reformatted to correct same question, but it did not work.

  These previous solutions have not helped:
  Could not locate the installer of Windows on Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
  Difficulty the installer of windows vista sp2
  code641/MSI
  Failed installation error msg error 80070641 Windows update

  After a month of butting heads with the refusal of Microsoft to actually help except to sell us all a new copy of Vista or Win7 at the normal price I solved the problem myself.

  1. I made a list of all my software purchased, including required registration keys, etc. and site URL for those who I don't have a disk for.
  2. Deleted registry back up on my external hard disk, reloading apparently one makes the backed up registry problems breed more.
  3. Inserted my drive from Dell to factory since 2007 and restarted. Press a key to boot from the CD. Chose "reformat hard drive' first, then when prompted hit"Reinstall"(slightly different wording on your computer).
  4. After you have reinstalled the factory disc 32-bit Vista, I spent hours 7 next installation of SP1, SP2 and hundreds of updates. Note that several times Windows Update said some updates to date has failed, but finally everything installed correctly by repeating the sequence of installation/reboot to update. There have been a few files that reported to turn off computer completely, I've shown... clicked with indicator shutdown (stop), let it do its thing until it turned off the computer and then the computer restarted manually later. After a total of 8 hours and 14 minutes as my Vista has been fully loaded, updated the installer is still intact, everything works very well and did not cost a penny.

  It has been 2 days since the reformatting/reinstall. I reinstalled all my additional software without problem. System Mechanic is back in service without any prejudice to my installation Service. Seems that something is involved with .NET Framework 4 triggered a defense mechanism that caused the installer should be deleted, solved the problem of the .NET Framework from Microsoft, but it can be installed by the installer being removed to protect our computers. The question was not just with Dell computers, it is Dell support is just as incompetent that Microsoft support batch so more Dell owners were here to complain.

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  FYI: my mobile Samsung with Win7, the correction was easier because my installation Service has not been removed:

  1. Uninstalled all the software using .net Framework 4 (only 2)
  2. Uninstalled all .net Framework 4 bodies found on my list of programs (Client Profile and Essentials)
  3. A ran my System Mechanic to remove debris aka too much clutter and correct registry problems
  4. Laptop rebooted then ran Windows Update. All the updates installed with 3 requiring the judgment to install. .NET framework reinstalled with updates.
  5. Reinstalled my 2 pieces of software that use .NET Framework.

  It has been 4 days without any problem at all. So, in my case, it's .NET Framework 4 that created and continued the problem, even if the specific audit FixIt kept saying all .NET Frameworks have been installed correctly.

• What information do you provide to meet the requirements of the "proof of purchase". I try to replacement command Windows installation media.

  Proof of the purchase question

  Hello

  I was wondering what information you must provide to meet the requirements of the "proof of purchase". I'm trying to order replacement windows installation media.

  Also, is it still possible if my version is an OEM version?

  Thank you

  The problem is that OEM System Builder copies are not for end users to install on their own computer.  The license of SB on the wrapper warns that it is for an installation on a computer for sale to customers.  Setup of OEM software is responsible for support then yes I think you're out of luck.

• My PC will not repair or install an operating system. I tried with Vista, 7 and Windows Server 2008 installation media, but it does not get as much as the first menu.

  As it is said above. Everything worked fine until a few days ago. Now, it will fail to start correctly wih STOP 0 x 00000024 (ntfs corruption), but I can't boot from any installation media to reinstall the OS or repair Vista. All I get is the wallpaper but no menu. I tried to unplug the SATA HDD and inserting an IDE drive with no effect.

  I can't start to BACK among the several start-up/repair CD I tried but I am unable to boot from a DVD of Windows XP PE (BartPE or Hiren boot CD), but I can boot Knoppix Linux (5.3.1 and 6.4.3).

  All I want to do is run chkdsk /r and then either to repair or install a new OS to make it work again.

  Hi deacon829,

  You did changes to the computer before that happened?

  Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists, to do this, follow the steps below,

  Access the menu advanced startup options by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. In the advanced startup options select safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  Step 2: If you try to install any application before this program, try to uninstall them.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/uninstall-or-change-a-program

  If this solves the problem, you can deduct that the demand is probably corrupted, damaged or incompatible. You can check with the manufacturer of the program for more information.

  Step 3: System Restore: System Restore to put the computer's system files to an earlier point in time.

  Look for steps to restore of the system in the link below:

• Ask about the loss of my windows vista installation media.

  Hello

  I had a Windows Vista Home premium installation DVD as well as the purchase of my Dell laptop, however I lost my installation media but have the COA label with me. My query is, can I get a downloaded version of Windows vista from Microsoft and use the existing serial key or should I get a new copy of a store licensed?

  Thank you and best regards,
  Biju.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Call Dell and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
