Transferring Windows 7 From One Computer To Another

Nov 6, 2012

if I move an OEM windows 7 to another computer (with a program like windows 7 system preparation tool and I believe that can be done) I understand I may lose windows activation. What I would like to know is if I do, could it be restored (activation) using a program such as "advanced tokens manager".

Transferring OEM Windows 7 To New Computer?

Feb 19, 2012

my brother has purchased parts and is going to build his computer next week. His old desktop has Windows 7 installed on it and it is an Asus. Can I install windows 7 onto his new PC with his old CD key? I already have the Windows 7 on a disc. When it asks for a serial key, can he just enter in the one from his old desktop or will it recognize that it is a new computer and not allow it?

Windows 7 Computer Lags When Transferring Large Files Over Network?

Feb 4, 2013

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate with a 6-core AMD processor, 16GB RAM, SSD as primary. Whenever I transfer a large file over the network to another system the mouse and other applications will persistently hang for a second here and there as long as the transfer is in progress. I'm sending 8-10GB files over from the secondary 2TB 5400RPM drive and no resources are showing as maxed out so I don't get it. I'm thinking of trying a 3rd party file transfer solution again, but this still shouldn't be happening with the default.

Oct 15, 2011

I have a 32bit comp, W7 Ult, 1TB HD and I would like to clone that onto a comp that is a 64bit. HD is the same capacity, question is, can this process be done?

Transferring Files To New Computer?

Nov 28, 2011

Finally time to replace my Dell desktop running XP Home with an HP desktop with Windows 7. What is the best way to transfer files, pictures, music, contacts, etc. from XP to Windows 7? My email and contacts are currently in Outlook. I don't know what email program to use on the new computer since I bought the Student and family version of Microsoft and I don't think it includes Outlook.

Transferring Files To New Computer?

Dec 7, 2011

I have a new Lenovo laptop with Windows 7. I have an old Dell Inspiron laptop with Windows XP. I realize I need to move my Firefox bookmarks and MS Office Outlook address book to the new computer.

1. How do I do this?

2. Are there any other files or info I should transfer?

I'm trying to avoid losing anything if the old laptop dies (no signs, just old). I store all my program backups, pictures and documents on a portable hard drive and cds.

3. Should I be doing more? I notice my Lenovo automatically backs up every day.

Transferring Minesweeper Statistics To A New Computer?

Aug 24, 2012

basically I just got a new computer, and would like to transfer my minesweeper records from my old computer to my new one. Both are running the same Windows 7 x64. The reason I want to transfer is because I became RIDICULOUSLY good with my old laptop, and will never come close with my new one (different mouse styles). I mostly played easy, but I became damn good at it. I had a 95% win rate over 10,000 games, which is ridiculous considering the number of no-win games. I also had my top 5 times at under 2 seconds, with an extremely rare one-click win top time of 0 (shows up as 1) seconds.

Computer Slows Down While Transferring Files?

May 5, 2011

When I do a large file transfer or multiple file transfers my computer gets extremely slow during the process. Slow meaning that to open the web browser it struggles and while typing search terms in google there is lag. That's just one example, other's being opening programs.Last night I reformatted my computer because I thought maybe it had something to do with it. But no luck because after the clean install was complete I transferred about 600gb back on the computer and during this process tried to view the properties xpadder (Right click-> Properties) and the entire system froze. A hard reset and I started the process all over again, tried watching tv using windows media center and it worked but flipping through channels was extremely slow and it is not usually.

I think my hardware is more than capable:
Windows 7 x64
8gb of Ram
1tb WD Caviar Black
ATI Radeon 4890
Gigabye P55-UD6 rev1.0
Enermax Modu 82+
Corsair H50

Some background info:
I originally had my computer overclocked but after a Bios upgrade I couldn't get the same results so It is currently stock speed. Computer is only a year old. Running temps are around 40-45C. Harddrive temps are normal (40-48C). I have completed a full check disk and monitor the harddrive with CrystalDisk Info (SMART Utility) and it seems 100%.

Transferring Data From Old Computer Hard Drive?

Jun 30, 2012

I have a newer computer (HP Pavilion Slimline) with Windows 7 and 64bit system. My old hard drive is out of a dead (won't power up) HP Pavilion Slimline Vista 32bit. I pulled the old drive and connected it through a harness and the USB on the new computer. When I open the devices and printers program the old drive is there but when I open the icon all I get is the properties etc. but no way to access any data on the old drive. Do I need a program or is the drive dead? It powers and runs and when it is connected and I open the properties I'm told the old drive is working properly.

Transferring Windows 7 OS To SSD?

Mar 21, 2012

I bought an SSD drive for my computer, only 60GB or so, and wanted to run my OS on it, and a few programs I use most days (Adobe suite / few games). Then use my existing drive (About 140GB) for photos and other things.

So far I've put the SSD drive in my computer, hooked it up, and formatted it so it shows on my 'My Computer' as drive :E.

I know how to put programs over, but how, and what is the best way to transfer my Windows 7 OS over to it?

Transferring Windows 7 Installation From One Drive To Another

Apr 28, 2011

My Uncle bought a new HDD and wanted to migrate his Windows 7 Installation from its original HDD to the new one (Maxtor to Hitachi). A tech friend of mine recommended CloneZilla, a freeware imaging program which would allow me to make an image of the HDD and transfer it to another drive. My only experience with imaging programs previously was with Symantec Ghost.

Even then, I never made the images, only applied them via a server. The version of CloneZilla I have is meant to work on singular machines and has the ability to make an image and write it to an HDD and then read an image and apply it to an HDD. OR you can do a device to device image transfer. I tried the device to device transfer to transfer the OS, but was told, when booting the computer, that the HDD didn't have an OS to boot.

When I tried doing a repair with the Windows 7 CD to see what was up, it couldn't locate an OS to repair. I then tried making an HDD image backup to a Storage drive. However, after that finished, I loaded CloneZilla again and tried to use the image to apply it to the new drive and, when I clicked on the folder housing the image, was told there was no image to apply.

Transferring Outlook Pst File Xp To Windows 7?

Aug 5, 2010

I'm in the process of transferring Outlook data from old xp laptop to new windows 7 for my hubbie (who knows even less than I do). Have followed microsoft's instructions (which worked fine for me earlier this year), as well as various other site's advice but everytime I import the new .pst file it simply loads up an empty inbox and deleted items folder. Also - each time I import the old data the new .pst file increases exponentially (I get multiple and I mean MULTIPLE inboxes...) until I have to restore it to its original state. I have checked the OUTLOOK compatibility is correct - I can only think it is a glitch casued by Windows 7 OS

Transferring Windows 7 From HDD To SSD / Do Need Install Disk

Sep 26, 2011

Later today I plan to follow this SSD - Install and transfer the Operating System guide to transfer my Windows 7 32bit operating system from my HDD to a new 60gb SSD.My only concern is that I don't have a windows 7 install disk, are they necessary for this method to work? I rashly purchased a windows 7 64bit upgrade hoping to do a clean install (using one of the work around methods for upgrade as full install) but after a few hours figured out you cannot use the upgrade download to go from 32 to 64bit. As a result I have no disk (old purchase) and the wrong upgrade download.

Transferring Files Between Two Windows 7 Computers.

Oct 2, 2011

In a nutshell what i am wanting to accomplish is to be able to log onto my desktop PC and access files that are on my laptop. Transferring large files takes a long time when you have to copy it to an external HDD and then back again onto another PC so i am hoping that if i get this working it will solve my problem.I have tried multiple things like Homegroups and setting the sharing permissions on files to allow me to access them but neither of these options work, i even followed the guide for the later attempt that is posted in a thread further down on this forum.When it comes to the homegroup i set up the homegroup on my laptop (by following a guide someone wrote on this forum) but when i go to access the hoemgroup on my desktop it does not say that there is a homegroup already on the network to access, and yes both computers are on the same wireless network.When it comes to the sharing permissions i follow the PDF also found on this forum to the letter but when it comes to going onto my desktop, opening the network screen my laptop is just not there.

Transferring Windows 7 And Data On C: Drive From HDD To SSD?

Apr 20, 2011

so i did a little research, and from my knowledge you can't simply transfer over a copy of an OS to a new (parimary) to an SSD due to partition alignment being off and screwing stuff uphowever, i found this:Use Windows 7's built in System Image tool and create a backup of your Windows 7 install to an external hard disk. Install new new hard drive (69 GB), boot from your Windows 7 DVD and choose to restore a system image and point to the location where the System Image is backed up. To do this procedure successfully, you will need an external backup drive to back up the installation.

Transferring Fresh Install Windows 7 HDD To Another Machine?

Feb 15, 2012

For some reason, I cannot install Windows 7 onto this new gateway PC that I have, but am able to do it on my older PC. Both are capable of running 64 bit, both have new and working memory, hardware. Now I understand that when you do install windows for the first time, your hard drive "marries" your motherboard. Thus when I put the hard drive into the new machine after a fresh install, it gets stuck on "windows is starting" and refuses to boot (ClassPNP.SYS in safe mode).

Windows 7 Crashing When Transferring Music From IPod

Jul 5, 2011

I just bought an HP g6 laptop the other day with Windows Home Premium x64, and I wanted to bring all my music from my Ipod classic to my new computer. It is normally a straightforward process, but whenever I try it with the new computer, Windows 7 crashes. I tried to do a bit of trouble shooting myself, but to no avail. I downloaded the Microsoft Host Controller Driver Update for HP users, but when I went to install it, the error message "Update did not install (259)" came up. I don't know what to do about it, but a lot of people seem to have similar problems that have to do with nvidia chipsets or something.

Transferring Files To New Machine On Windows 7 Over Network

Feb 21, 2012

I recently got a new PC and transfered all my old settings/documents to the new machine. First off, thats an awesome feature I wasnt even aware of! However, Im concerned about one thing; on my old PC, my wife used to have a profile that she used for work and had some confidential financial documents on. She deleted her profile some time ago when she got her own PC, but could it possbily have transfered her old/deleted documents onto my new machine? I only ask because I mainly use my new PC for work/presentations (in public places). While its unlikely, I just wanted to make sure no one would have access to those old documents should they gain access to my new machine.
