I have a hard drive I want to backup to a 64gb flash drive and then restore it to another different hard drive than where it came from. I have windows 7 and office on my laptop and I want it on my desktop pc. There isn't close to 64gb of info on my laptop so it should be fine even though the hard drive says I have 160gb. It is all free space except for those programs.

Just purchased a sandisk 64gb microsd. When I put it in, windows says it needs to be formatted. I went to format it as exfat but it only sees the drive as27gb. Same thing if I select ntfs. Is there something I am doing wrong or is this a faulty microsd card. If I use swissknife to look at the removable drives, it shows the drive as being 64GB and formatted already.

Currently I'm using Windows 7 64Bit ultimate. Yesterday I brought Sandisk microSDXC 64GB.
I try to use this microSD with my PC. But my PC cannot access to this microSD card. So I try to format this microSD card again. But I can't format it, Because Windows can't specify capacity of this card.
Addition Information I'm using Sandisk ImageMate All-in-One USB3.0, tjat already supprt microSDXC I [URL]

Can you recommend me the best way to transfer OS from old 64gb ssd to new 256gb ssd? My prev 64gb only had my os installed. So i presume that to upgrade to a new 256gb i just need to install an os and it will work the same way as the old 64 gb?
Anybody able to help me with this problem? I currently have the new 256gb installed with windows 7. However when i replace the old 64gb with the new 256 gb it states that the bootmgr is missing. Bios seems to detect the new 256 gb.
i would like to have my 256gb replace the 64 gb and operate the same way as my 64 gb without any changes.

My Dell XPS 8500 has an MSATA slot in which I have a 64 gb msata board which acts as the system and boot drive. I have just purchased a 128 gb msata board I want to install in place of the 64gb unit. My system also has a 1 tb main hard drive. I have tried a system restore DVD and Back/Restore, neither has worked at all. All I want to do is find a way to do a complete copy of the 64gb msata now installed and then replace it with the 128gb unit and copy over all of the data that was on the 64gb one. This way all I have done will be to have more storage available on my system drive, the msata drive.

I have Windows XP<-changed from Vista, a legit Ultimate key, no DVD drive and no USB stick or HDD. I read in some articles that it is possible, to download the Windows 7 ISO and mount it like for example with Virtualdrive or CloneDVD, then just run the setup, and it will work fine with complete installation after reboot.

I had to pull out my HD from my Dell running W Vista and now I am trying to access those files through an adapter to my new W 7 laptop. The new laptop acknowledges the HD is there but it says I have to format the old HD I order to use it. I need to access those files but it will not even open the Old HD in my F drive.

I'm a bit bored with Vista and want to install 7. Can I do this whilst keeping Vista and Ubuntu installed in case something goes wrong with the installation. At the moment Vista and Ubuntu share my hard drive and I simply chose which OS to boot on start up.

Wondering if anyone has run in this before. I couldn't find anything specific on the web:
I have a year and a couple month old HP DV4-122nr laptop with Vista x86 Home Premium OEM installed. It recently had issues shutting off randomly, so I decided to do a clean install to Windows 7 Ultimate x64.I have done tons of installs in the past since XP came out and have always had good luck. I tried to do my regular clean install (via USB) and once I got to the "expanding files" part, the laptop would just shut down. I tried it several times, same deal. I then tried installing from a DVD. Again, shut off at random points during the expanding files section.
I then figured it had something to do with Win 7, so I tried Vista. This time I got it to the point where it would restart, but then it would just go black afterwords and show no video.I tried several flavors of Vista (x86,x64,Home Premium, Ultimate, SP1, SP2 and SP0), but again to no avail. I then finally got Vista Business x86 to install, but when I installed the graphics driver, it killed it (black screen). I went into safe mode and uninstalled the graphics driver and it booted normally.

My Dell PC came with Vista installed on it and physical discs to re-install. I then got Windows 7 for free due to the timing of when I bought the PC. I presume the discs were the upgrade variety, but I don't have them in front of me. I know when I totally reformatted my harddrive recently for a problem, I had to install Vista first and then 7... leading me to believe now that the Windows 7 install discs were the upgrade and not full.I just got the "full" version of Windows 8 Pro from Microsoft DreamSpark and plan on dualbooting to a separate partition alongside Windows 7... to give it a test run.Eventually, I will probably wipe the Windows 7 partition and extend it so that I have my Windows 8 partition and a 2nd partition for files and whatnot.can I take the Vista install disc and then the Windows 7 disc and install them on another PC? I am pretty sure I am doing a full install of Windows 8 (with its own key) and therefore wouldn't be using the Vista key or the Windows 7 key that is tied to the Vista key?

I am currently running an OEM version of windows vista ultimate 32 bit. I just bought an OEM version of windows 7 professional 64 bit. Will I be able to clean install and activate my new w7 even though I already have OEM vista installed on my motherboard?
In short, Can I install OEM over OEM?

I am having to install a new hard drive on a friend's computer. The thing is though, he doesn't have the install disc or even the sticker with his Vista code on it. So I wanted to know if it is possible to install a copy of Windows 7 OEM onto the new hard drive (nothing else in the computer has changed--same mobo, RAM, etc). Is this possible or will the mobo have issues with a new Windows OEM?

I currently have a hard drive with two partitions dual booting Win 7 and Vista. I need to move both OS's to a new hard drive. I've made a full backup of the drive with the Macrium Reflect program, but I don't know if restoring it on a new hard drive using the recovery CD will work. Will there be any problems booting the operating systems afterwards? Is there a better way or better program to do this? Does the type or brand of the new hard drive make a difference?

Want to upgrade Vista Home to Windows 7 Premium. The workstation definitely has the horse power for Windows 7.But visiting computer shops, the upgrade options are cleared out or not available and they suggest a new install of Windows 7 Professional, they also say its cheaper than an upgrade $140 vs $250. Windows 8 is not an option at this time.I have very little data or software on the current machine with Vista,but do have Outlook 2010.Will a new install of Windows 7 clean out the hard drive and I'll need to re-install Outlook?

is there an existing technique that can make me install Windows Photo Gallery, not the one with the Windows Live Essentials thing???? I am using Windows 7.I installed Windows Live Photo Gallery and Windows Live Movie Maker many months ago but I am more satisfied with Windows Movie Maker 2.6 and the Windows Photo Gallery that came with Vista. I hate the Windows Live thing cause it also comes with stuff like Windows Skydrive Upload Tool and Windows Sign in Assistant. Windows Live Photo Gallery is more laggish than Vista's Windows Photo Gallery. And I don't even like how Windows Live Movie Maker works and looks., is there some way I can install Windows Photo Gallery on Windows 7 without Windows Live Essentials?

I had a network with 2x Win Vista PC's, 1x Win XP PC, and a shared printer. I replaced the Win XP PC with a new Win 7 PC. Now the 2x Win Vista PC are on separate networks: Network 2 & Network 3. The Vista Network 2 PC can no longer see or use the printer, which is cable attached to the Network 3 Vista PC. Seems like the Win 7 installed new, separate networks for the existing Vista PC's. The network hardware is: Comcast modem > Dynex router > Cisco ethernet switch > 3 PC's. I did not change any network connections, hardware or software on the Vista PC's. I simply removed the Win XP PC, and replaced it with Win 7 PC on that network cable.
