I have a Toshiba Satellite L305 Series laptop and would like to install Ubuntu with Wubi (Windows Ubuntu Installer). I have 2GB of RAM. 226GB hard disk space on the C Drive, it currently has Windows 7 Professional 32-bit installed and I would like to dual boot it with Ubuntu. Will it work on this computer? Also, about how much space should I allocate to Ubuntu in Wubi?
Recently I have bought window's 7. I have extracted the file from the CD on a different PC. & i have installed it successfully. & now, I have tested out Linux 10.04 which I have dual booted with Window's 7. But when I have dual booted with a program called "Wubi", It has disable my function for f8 to show the grub menu. I have posted this in the ubuntuforums but they told me to come here. So I am asking, How many I reinstall Window's 7 without a CD-rom? & My bios doesn't show my USB in the boot tab. So what do i do? I was thinking of installing through network.
I Built a new computer for myself a while back and gave my old one to my brother... The thing is that I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit for him and I planned to get a key after the trial time was up but I never did it and he's getting tired of the reminders to activate now that the trial has run out and I can't locate a reasonably priced legit key so I was going to just install Vista back into the computer for him (It came with Vista Premium 64 bit OEM) but I only have a Vista Premium 32 Bit OEM install disk and I can't find a Vista 64 Bit OEM ISO online anywhere so I wondered if I could use the 64 bit key associated with the computer but use that key for a 32 bit install ????
I've just recently purchased a generic wireless mouse from eBay. more specifically, this one: 2.4GHz USB Receiver Wireless Optical Mouse F PC Laptop | eBay it doesn't work. I'm running Windows 7 64bit and it started installing the drivers, first it was installing "HID Wireless Mouse", then it switched to "USB Input Device" but failed after 3 seconds. now it's listed in Device Manager as "USB Input Device" with yellow sign that indicates it doesn't work. I tested it in 2 other Windows 7 32bit computers and it works just fine! installing drivers and everything. moreover - I testes my bro's logitech wireless mouse on my 64bit Windows 7 computer and it works fine. I think Windows fails on recognizing it. I mean the drivers are there.. the Logitech Mouse works but mine doesn't.. how do I make it work?
My work programs require XP and supposedly will not function on windows 7 nor the XP mode of same. I need a new computer, most likely a laptop, so I can work while traveling. I can't buy XP anymore. Any suggestions other than a new job?
So this problem started yesterday afternoon. I didn't download anything, but suddenly I was unable to browse the web. I tried all the web browsers I have but no websites would load. But skype and teamspeak still work.

I built a new computer for my Mom and am using the old hard-drive that has windows 7 32 bit so I installed the 64 bit windows 7 pro and for some reason is has both versions of windows 7 32 bit which I can get into and the 64 bit that I can get into. The windows version that I have are XP sp3 that is a full version and Windows Home that is with my laptop, how I go about getting rid of windows 7 32 bit one anyone have any advice.
i recently upgraded my laptops RAM from 2GB to 4GB but only 2.93GB is usable. i started reading around and i found out that it was because im running 32bit windows 7 and not 64bit. so i wanted to know if there is anyway of changing from 32bit to 64bit without paying for windows 7 as my windows 7 came already installed on the laptop.
I have a NB550D with windows 7 home 32Bit installed and but i am having issues with it. I usually put it to sleep all the time as i use it for school. I went to use it 2 days ago and it started to become REALLY slow. The hdd light was on all the time and doing anything started to take a very long time. It ended up blue screening with something up the top with irql not less or equal message up the top but before i could read anymore it restarted.When it starts up, it prompts for my password, and i login. It then sits on the Welcome screen with the little circle spinning for ages. it ends up with a black screen with the cursor that is moveable for about 10 minutes and then it freezes. The hdd light is on the whole time.
It is booting into safe mode so i decided to install SP1 to see if that would cure it which it did... for 1 day. It has stopped working again today with the same symptoms but instead of it sitting in welcome screen for 5 minutes it sits there for about 30 seconds and then goes to a black screen with the cursor. It appears to be loading something because the cursor has got that little spinning thing and then after a while the task bar comes up. It is responsive to some degree but the background is nowhere to be found. I can move the mouse right up until 2 seconds before it reboots. there is no warning as to when it reboots, it just goes blank and then the BIOS logo appears. It appears to be trying to load something faster than the HDD can cope and then it crashes. It still boots into safe mode.
I was infected by some malware which affected the ability of the computer to run Windows Updates. The malware infection has been cleaned successfully with the help of fireman4it.
I just bought a new, CPU, Motherboard, PSU, and casing, and I take my graphic card, ram and HDD/SDD from my old computer. I put them on to my new computer, then turned it on, but then it says windows cannot boot, I pick the right HDD for my windows folder, and it says to repair, and I tried the repair mode, but then it says windows cannot repair this, and i only can click finish and shut down my computer.
Before I used Windows XP, but now I clean install by installing Windows 7. I prefer Windows 7 32-bit. When installing the Windows 7, I got only Windows 7 64-bit and 86-bit options. It means I can't install windows 7 32-bit to my current computer. What must I do to get "Windows 7 32-bit" to work? Or it's because of my computer status that can't support Windows 7 32-bit. My computer is Dell Optiplex 380 (CPU Core to duo 2.6, Ram 2GB, and Hard Disk 640GB). Please help to tell me how to figure it out.
I'm looking to update my windows 7 home premium from 32bit to 64bit. My question is, will this affect all the partitions on my hdd? Its 1TB split into D:100GB for the OS, D:200GB for games and the other E: for music, movies etc. I only ask because it would be a pain to back up everything or can I get away with just backing up the C: drive.
