• You can install Windows on a Mac without an optical drive

  Hey, I have a Mac end 2011 a friend gave to me and he said it was broken. I realized that it was just the SATA port on the motherboard, so I pulled out the optical drive and I put an SSD in it. Now I want to install Windows but Mac says that I am not allowed to because I don't have an optical drive. I tried Abu tools and many other shippers of EFI boot, but none of them does not seem to work! Please help me fast!

• You can install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP with Windows 7 Home Premium Mode?

  Windows 7 Home Premium with Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode.

  I'm currently under Vista Premium and just-ordered Windows 7 Premium.  I noticed that Microsoft offers only the XP Mode in their professional, Ultimate and Enterprise versions. Once I've upgraded to Windows7 I will be able to download and install Virtual PC and XP mode and make it work in my Premium version manually?  Yes my AMD BIOS supports.  Thank you!

  Only, you would have the same problems with 32-bit software in a 64 bit environment where it may or may not work as the others. XP mode is reserved for people who have a software who refuse, for some reason, to upgrade and that run only under Windows XP. But if you consider that Windows XP was introduced in 2001 and it is now 2009 and 1 other OS released and another is about to release... it's time to upgrade. Jonathan Matthis aka "7test" on MSN QnA

• I can install Windows 7 64-bit disk external eSATA SSD as my OS boot?

  I would like to install on in-house, but I also need to run RAID disks for my data for redundancy.  I want to we SSD for my OS drive for obvious reasons (speed).  But the TRIM command to clean up the SSD is not functional through RAID controllers.  I wonder if Windows 7 is set up and operate from an eSATA drive?  My BIOS doesn't let me choose eSATA as a boot drive, but I've seen messages that mention the operating system Windows do not allow you to install on external drives.  I understand also is the eSATA 3 Gb/s, but I wonder if there are differences in bandwidth external case?

  Or maybe the native command of Windows 7 ATA-TRIM works through RAID controllers?

  Otherwise, I could have all the discs for the IDE installation, and then use Windows software RAID controller, but I believe that would considerably slow down my data disks, which is far from ideal as.

  Any clarity on this would be appreciated.  I don't want to go down a path of $700 and a lot of time if the result is not good.

  Is it possible to install a device to a Windows Vista-based computer when you can get Windows 98 drivers for the device?

  # You have need Vista compatible drivers - it's the only way it will work.  Installing bad drivers can even to hurt the unit or even your system to not try.  Get a new USB device that works with Vista, and has the correct drivers.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  How to reinstall Windows 8

  You have two options:

  If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

  · Click settings

  · Click change PC settings

  · Click general in the left column

  · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

  Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

  Option 2:

  If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

  Option 3:

  A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

  See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

• If the Windows 8 Media Center key expires, or you can install it later on 31 January?

  I got the Windows 8 Pro upgrade for several systems, but I only installed Win 8 on 1 System.  I do not plan on installing Windows 8 Pro on other systems for several months or more.

  I got the keys to win 8 Media Center for all systems for which I bought a Windows 8 Pro upgrade. As I understand it, after the 31/01/13, I will not be able to use these Media Center keys for systems where I have not yet installed Win 8.  I strongly suspect that I can't.

  Please tell me I'm wrong and I can use the keys after 1/31 or can I download Media Center before 1/31 and install it after that I installed Win 8 on a system.

  Windows 8 key does not expire so you can install it at any time, but the free Media Center key expires. After 1/31, you will be able to buy the Media Center in the App store.

• need help to get rid of xp so I can install windows 7

  I have download kill disk and he burned on a cd and started on the cd, but he has done notheing. I'm trying to reformat the hard drive, so I can install windows 7 is there a tool for command line, I can use instead

  You can do so during the installation of Windows 7.  Moving from XP to Windows 7, you can only do a "custom" installation

  Note

  Formatting your hard drive during the installation of Windows 7 is not necessary. If you wish to format your hard drive, and you use a Windows 7 upgrade version, do not use a program from another software manufacturer to reformat your hard drive before installing Windows 7. Instead, start your PC using the Windows 7 upgrade installation disc or a USB flash drive, click Custom (Advanced) and then click drive options (Advanced).

  Make sure that your hardware can support Windows7 by running the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  Make sure that you have downloaded Windows 7 need drivers for your hardware.

  Make sure that you have backed up your files and other data that you can restore everything after installing Windows 7.  You can use Windows Easy Transfer.  If so, make sure that get you from the link below.

  Make sure you have all the installation media (CD/DVD or Installer files) for all applications that you want to reinstall once Windows 7 has been installed downloaded.

• HP ENVY 700-000z Desktop PC with 8 and the need to know if I can install Windows 7

  Just bought HP ENVY 700-000z Desktop PC equipped with 8 and need to know if I can install Windows 7 on this computer without problem.  My work does not allow the use of Windows 8.  If I can install Windows 7, what version of operating system do I need to buy to do a clean install.

  If I understand correctly, I could order the Windows 8 Pro, who has right to demotion and then install Windows

  7 pro, I have then I should be able to get the drivers, I need HP is correct.

  WARNING *.

  HP does not recommend installing Windows 7 on a computer comes with Windows 8, and it will support the installation of Windows 7. HP doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 and the appropriate drivers are not available for the hardware in the computer. In addition, Windows 7 can not take in charge some of the hardware or software designed for the computer.

  Make sure you create your media recovery HP or USB Flash Recovery discs before you edit or change anything.

  You should ENABLE 'Secure Boot' and maybe 'Legacy Support' in the 'BIOS Setup boot secured' on the settings page below, before you try to install Windows 7;

  

  or

  

  In addition, as the hard drive is partitioned as TPG, you must start the computer by using the "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" in the start menu "F9". If "UEFI - CD/DVD drive" or something to that effect does not exist in the start menu, please post a screenshot and/or make startup listed options.

  I suggest using Windows 7 SP1 for the best installation experience. If you need Windows SP1, see 'How to install Windows 7 without the disc' to download and create your own. If the DVD does not start as UEFI, you may need to use a USB Flash drive (can ask "Quick start" DISABLING in BIOS) as the installation media. Please download the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a Windows 7 SP1 USB Flash drive.

  Most of the Windows 7 drivers from the drivers of HP Pavilion p7-1299 c desktop PC page should work on your desktop HP ENVY 700 - 000z CTO. Both models use a variant of the motherboard HP Jasmine. If you have missing or unknown devices after installing the drivers, please post the "Hardware ID" Device Manager for devices as shown in the example below.
