View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm in China and bought a new laptop, it's a Lenovo and it came with a Chinese operating system. To get an English operating system, I downloaded a copy of Windows 7 Professional. Once I installed Windows 7 Professional, I realized that the student key I got from my school was for Windows 7 Ultimate and wouldn't work with the Professional version.
Then I download a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate and burned it to a disk. When I went to install this, it wouldn't let me put it on any of my partitions (the laptop has 4) so I formatted the secondary one with like 860GB of space but then I thought that I would never need the Chinese operating system again so I formatted the Primary partition as well. However, after formatting them, it won't let me install my hard drive to any of the partitions and it tells me "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. One EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks".
Now I can't start my computer because the operating systems are gone and I can't install my operating system. I have no idea what to do.
something needed to be updated on his computer, so it was, then his computer crashed.then when it was starting up, when it started loading Windows, it would do a startup repair thingy. I tried everything I could to fix it, nothing worked. I reset/reformatted the hardware or whatever (the one that saves personal files) then when it reformatted and restarted, it would start reinstalling Windows (7 of course) and I keep getting an error message on a screen with the words 'Setup is starting services' that says 'Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this, computer, restart the application.' so I do, and then the same error message pops up after a split second again.He has a Dell (I believe,) Aspire, Intel Pentium t4500, intel GMA 4500MHD. That's all I can find out by looking at the sticker stuck inside the laptop.I wouldve come here before the format, but I barely found out about this website 20 minutes ago. Also I can run the system checker application thig for obvious reasons,

When I first unpackaged the computer, I attempted to use an old Western Digital hard drive from my previous Q9550/EVGA 780i system. I was unaware that hard drives from another chip set install probably wont boot into windows. So I foolishly I attempted to boot into windows right after I assembled the new i5 computer with a old hard drive from a Q9550 system. Not sure if this might be part of the problem, but I figured I would mention it.The hard drive showed up in BIOS but did not show up "Where do you want to install windows".
Neither did my other hard drives ( another Western Digital & Seagate). However, if I take any of these hard drives and put them back into my old Q9550/EVGA 780i and put in the Windows 7 install CD, they will show up in the box of drives availableIn other words, all hard drives are showing up to install windows 7 on in my old q9550/evga 780i system, but none of the drives are showing up in my new Asrockz77Hard drive showing up in Asrock Z77 bios: When I try to install windows 7 to a hard drive it does not show up Here is the SAME hard drive put back into my old q9550/evga 780i system.

They are both plugged into Intel sata controller ports, not the Asmedia ones as confirmed by this screen shot and video.
I once read that someone used an XP disc to create the system partition for a Vista or 7 install. The reason being that the Vista/7 system partitions are larger than the ones XP creates.
Anyone know of this technique and if it is safe? By safe I mean 7 would run stable and reliably from a smaller system partition.
Or are there other techniques (maybe a disk partitioner) that would do the trick. I hate to see so much space "seemingly" wasted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've installed Win7 on a 500GB Sata II disk and was running fine. Then something happened, boot manager missing, and I need to re-install Win7 on same disk. Now I get a message, when installing on the SAME DISK: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks."
This disk just had Win7 installed on it and is still there (but boot manager is still missing) so how can the disk have an MBR partition? I got this same msg. when trying to install Win7 on a clean Samsung 128GB SSD as well. I re-formatted the drive and still same msg. How can I make my disk formatted with GPT partitions instead of MBR partitions? I can find no choices in terms of which kind of formatting and partitions that can be used when formatting disks on Win7 or XP Pro.
my desktop computer does not have an Operating System, this is after i tried to format my computer but i followed a wrong instruction. then i decided to put out the cd then restart it, but the computer didn't start, my friend says it is because there's no OS, then i tried doing again the steps in installing OS, but any keys i press or click doesn't work even the del, what will i do?

The error occured while preparing the partition selected for installation. Error code: 0x80070057
I've tried what they outlined in this thread, [URL] When I get to formatting the drive in Command Prompt it just stalls at 0% and says diskpart has encountered an error; the parameter is incorrect. see the system event long for more information.
I've tried changing SATA to IDE instead of AHCI in bios.
I've tried using a recovery disk for my Acer 3830tg, but it just stalls at 0%. I've tried using a genuine Vista Ultimate DVD, but it doesn't even detect a disk drive. It's a Corsair Force Series 90GB SSD F90 in an Acer 3830tg-6412 with 8GB of RAM.
Oh the SSD works fine, I was able to boot it up and run everything fine prior to trying to do a fresh install, which in hindsight is stupid

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a HP laptop that had Windows 7 installed on it, one day i got a message saying there were updates available, which included Service pack 1. So, i went ahead with the install however, when my system rebooted after the install there was an error message (i cant remember what it said, it was a while ago) so i immediately tried to put my windows 7 disk in, which would not boot. I have gone into bios and changed it so that it was the first boot item but still didn't work, even with F8, F12 etc. So i decided to borrow a recovery disk from a friend, it is a general one of the internet, i went through the repair options which didn't work, so i decided to format the hard drive which was successful. So now when you boot, as you would expect, you get a no operating system message. I try to put my Windows 7 disk back in to install it fresh but it still wont work, its like theres nothing in the cd drive.
