I have a laptop that once contained Vista on it. The hard drive was broke and is being replaced. If I purchase a system builder edition of Windows 7, will it install and work correctly? I read something about Vista being bonded to the motherboard.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhat is OEM? Amazon.com: Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit (Full) System Builder DVD 1 Pack: Software, I saw this on amazon. Does this lock into motherboard? and the retail version does not? I can barely afford this, let alone the almost twice-as-much retail version. what is this? How does this compare to the retail version of 7 pro? I dislike anything 'rooting to my motherboard.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe audio services worked fine at first. But after optimizing the system for gaming and security, the "Windows Audio Endpoint Builder" service fails to start. It gives the error: "Error 1722: The RPC server is unavailable" This is required for the "Windows Audio" service, so I have no sound now. Does anyone know the cause of this error? Here are the services that I am running.

So i come to you guys as a last result after spending large amounts of time and money trying to, troubleshoot my own issue. Before i dive into details, im 95% sure that my issue is caused by overheating, i just dont know what and why.As of roughly 3-4 months ago i began having issues with my computer randomly shutting off while playing high intensity games (BF3 on medium which caused my HD5670/CPU to run at ~90-100% capacity). It wouldnt blue screen it would just turn off. Upon shutting down it wouldnt boot for between 15 minutes to even 4-5 hours (where i would pull the whole thing apart in exasperation and upon putting it back together it would boot). So over the next few months i did the following in an attempt to fix/stop the issue (dot pointed so you guys dont TLR)

View 4 Replies View RelatedI bought Windows 7 Ultimate edition and installed it on my laptop. This laptop has a Windows media centre edition 2002 cd key sticker attached.I then went on to install vmware and tried to install windows xp mce on it.Now I lost the recovery disk supplied and the laptop manufacturer asked me to pay in order to re-deliver the disk. So I downloaded Windows XP MCE 2005 OEM edition instead but it does not take the cd key I was supplied it with.Here is my question,a. Why isn't the windows accepting my cd key prior to the installation? I thought the cd key supplied from laptop are all OEM copies and I am using the same machine?Could it be due to the different cpu and ram amount allocation? [i.e. allocating 1 cpu to vmware while the machine has 2?] I upgraded my hard disk and installed additional 1gb ram. Apart from these all other devices are identical
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just bought a new Hp Pavilion dv7-6b11. It comes with preinstalled Windows 7 64bit Home Premium. I also installed a new ssd drive. I want to have as primary the ssd with Windows 7 and secondary the original hdd. I mean I want the Hp's Windows 7 version to be installed in my new ssd disk. Ok, I thought I could download Windows 7 original and activate it with my stickers serial. But what about the drivers which are already preintalled? I think it's a classic problem (the "I bought a new laptop, I installed a new ssd and I want to install the original-preinstalled Windows 7 on ssd") but I haven't found a proper solution.

I just ordered an SSD and will be migrating my Windows 7 64 install over to it. Most people seem to say I should do a fresh install instead of cloning the old drive. Currently my OS is on a partition on my HDD, while the rest of my files reside on a different partition on the same drive.
Where this gets slightly trickier is that my version of Windows 7 is an upgrade edition. From what I remember reading before my initial install, the installer is much happier and the process is much smoother if it can detect an existing Windows installation somewhere on the system. But on the other hand, everyone seems to advise disconnecting all drives but the SSD when installing (to avoid having the boot loader install on the wrong drive?).
I can't have it both ways. The closest I've found to someone with my same dilemma is here: Upgrade Installation - To new SSD From XP
It sounds like in the end he had to do the reinstall workaround (install Windows 7 again over the invalidated installation).
