Converting Dvd Installation To External Hdd USB?

Apr 25, 2011

I have a dvd of genuine windows 64 bit professional and the problem is that instead of a cd/dvd drive I have an ultrabay hard drive which I want windows 7 to be on.

So the whole process would be getting all files from DVD, and "burning" them to external hard drive so I would be able to install Windows 7 on my 500gb hard drive.

Installation Destroyed External Hard Drive

Nov 19, 2009

Before upgrading from XP to 7, I made backup on 2 external drives. I tested both backup, and they tested fine.

I then reformated my laptops hard drive & installed Windows 7. No problems were reported.

However I could not access the data on the 2 external hard drives. Windows 7 reported that they were unreadable and that I needed to reformat them!

The 2 hard drives were connected to my laptop when I installed Windows 7

I had to take both too a comuter geek who spent 2 days recovering my data - at a huge cost to me.

Converting VHS To DVD?

Dec 3, 2012

I am trying to convert my old VHS tapes to DVD at minimal expense. I have the Roxio Video Capture USB and the driver seems to be working correctly for this Capture device. Even though I have the Roxio Easy VHS to DVD software, I was unable to install the software as it kept getting hung up because I believe the software is too old. Instead I decided to use a free Golden Video software as the software to capture the videos through the Roxio Video Capture USB. The Golden Video software appears to be working fine but it only captures the audio but no video.

I do not have the original VHS camcorder, but am instead running the VHS tapes through a VHS/TV and am thinking that may be the issue.The coaxial cable is running from the back of the TV to a Radio Shack RF Modulator which then has the three video/audio cables (red, white and yellow) running from the back of this Radio Shack box into the same cables on the Roxio Capture USB which is then plugged into the computer.

I feel that this setup should work, but perhaps one cannot capture the video from a VHS/TV but must use a camcorder or a VCR (neither of which I have). I have not seen this addressed on the internet and am wondering if anyone knows if this setup is possible.

Converting Windows 7 To Linux?

Jan 20, 2012

I have a Gateway netbook pre-installed with Windows 7 Starter. In just 7 months it has got viruses and is full of error messages, not able to uninstall the programs causing this mess, and my web browser keeps redirecting me to alternate websites which I never typed on the address bar. I am sick and think about completely deleting the whole C disk from the Windows 7 (backup my files first) and try to replace Windows 7 with some type of free Linux OS. My netbook has no CD drive nor floppy disk drive, only USB drives. My questions are:

1. Can I really get rid of all the Windows 7 files already pre-installed?

2. Can I install and run Linux OS efficiently in my netbook?

3. How can I install Linux OS on my netbook from a USB flash drive?

Converting From A Basic Disc To Dynamic

Sep 19, 2012

I have been reading up on it from microsofts site as well as various places throughout the web. most articles were also a few years old might have been before windows 7 was even released.from what I understand you will only really have an issue if you are using windows 98, 2000 , xp and server 2003.What I am trying to do is make a partition but the only way to do it so it seems (I am using the admin disk management tool)is to convert to dynamic.I am creating the partition to install a small linux distro to use in dual boot but the part that is making me weary is the last step of the disk management tool says "the operation you selected will convert the selected basic disk(s) to dynamic disc(s). If you convert the disk(s) to dynamic you will not be able to start installed operating systems from any volume on the disk(s)(except the current boot volume.now I will (hopefully) never have to deal with those headaches called OS's again. So would I have any negative impact from this conversion? would i still be able to boot windows 7 with all of my data still intact?

Converting Various File Types To A Dvd Format?

Feb 13, 2012

I have downloaded various video clips from different websites and would like to copy or burn then to blank DVD's. However, I am not that good with computers and don't exactly know how. I have a DVD burning software which I have taken my own personal DVDs and made a copy of them (which is not illegal by the way, I made sure and checked that). But I don't know how to do the same with various video files I have downloaded from the internet or that friends have emailed to me. Some of the files types include AVI, and MKV file types, others I cant find out what kind of file it is. I can play these on my computer and watch them, but I would like to maybe compile the video files and put hard copies of them on DVDs.

Converting Windows 7 Spanish To English?

Apr 27, 2011

Lenovo had a glitch in their system while I've ordered my laptop and it looks like Spanish Windows 7 will be installed from the factory.

Assuming that all of its English features in Windows 7 will be converted to Spanish, is there a way to make it so there is no slight hint of Spanish in my system? It would be kind of silly to learn Spanish just because Lenovo made a bug in their system.. sigh.

Also, does anyone know if the Windows 7 COA sticker will say "Spanish" on it? I'm just curious about this one.

Converting XP Pro To Windows 7 - RAID Driver?

Sep 13, 2012

I am converting my 2.66 GHz Core II Duo machine from Windows XP Pro to Windows 7 Ultimate. When I loaded XP, during the installation process, Windows asked me to load RAID software from a floppy disk to enable the RAID and SATA ports on my Intel DQ965GF motherboard. Will Windows 7 need the same software loaded, or will it be able to access the SATA ports and/or have the RAID software driver built into the operating system? I have the latest driver/software update from Intel for the motherboard, but have not installed anything yet.

Converting A Dynamic Disk To Basic Without Data Loss

Sep 11, 2011

[FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I initially had 1 500gb dynamic disk, with one partition containing all my documents and windows files. I created a partition in the free space to copy my documents into so I could overwrite Windows keeping my documents intact. However I did not have enough free space for all my documents so after copying over one batch of files I shrunk the windows partition and extended my document partition. I had to repeat this again so I now have three extended document partitions.[/FONT] I then put in the windows CD, formatted the OS Recovery, SYSTEM Reserved and Windows parititions but then was unable to install Windows as it did not recognise any disks. I attempted FixMBR etc but to no avail.

I searched around and saw i may be able to change the sector hex from 42 (dynamic) to 07 (basic), but im wondering whether doing so will preserve the extended partitions i have? So my question is, will changing 42 to 07 preserve the extended partitions. Do I need to repeat for each 42 (like the link you posted) and then the three dynamic extended partitions will then become one basic partition? At the moment I can not actually see the data so have no idea how to back it up? Otherwise I would do as you say and back it up, format and copy back over.

DISKPART: Acronis Disk Director (see documents spanned)

Active unDelete (again, three partitions)

HxD (showing 42)

So, basically im asking if i am safe to convert 42 to 07 WITHOUT losing any data?

Converting A Dynamic Disk To Basic Without Data Loss

Sep 11, 2011

I have a 500GB dynamic hard drive which had a Windows 7 install on it. I wanted to reinstall Windows, so from within Windows setup I formatted the system and Windows partition, leaving a partition containing documents and pictures (i was unable to delete them). From then, Windows seemed unable to recognise the disk so i searched in DISKPART and found that the disk was labelled as INVALID.

After Googling around it looks as though i can simply change the 1C02 in the hex from 42 to 07 - however, my only concern was that the documents i have on this drive are spanned across three adjacent (dynamic?) partitions - so i am concerned that by focing the disk to be basic i will lose the connection between these partitions.

Converting Files To Zune And Media Center Friendly

Apr 26, 2012

Trying to convert some files to be friendly with my Zune 120Gb and the rest of my media players including Media Center. I would also like the file type to be GPU compatible so it is faster to convert. My Zune is the main thing so it doesn't try and convert when syncing, I am only using it as an external video player for use in my car on long trips for the second set of monitors in it.The Zune will support MPEG-4 and H.264 video but there are specific limits listed.
