i have win7 premium. i love to play pc games.all my games are new. i can't get any of them to install on my pc.my pc is new. i put the disc in and nothing happens. so what is wrong with my pc? or me?
More specifically I want to play the original diablo over a LAN connection. Problem being IPX is no longer supported.
My computer is running Windows 7 Home Premium as title states. This apparently is one of the only Windows 7 editions that cannot run a Virtual PC Windows XP mode so i'm out of good ideas.
The other computer is using windows xp, i have manually installed an ipx protocol.
Does microsoft have any possible fixes? I'd rather not download shady software such as IPX emulators if it can be avoided.
What I am wanting to do is a custom install of Windows 7 Premium. I'm really no expert on all things Windows, but I have felt for a long time that simply installing Windows from the cd / dvd is not really the most efficient and "power user" way of doing things. I feel that in doing an install from cd / dvd that lots of things are added that are not needed, and that I do not have the kind of control over my operating system (where things go, etc.) that I could have.
Getting ready to install new hard drive and Win 7 Home Premium 64 Bit.Previous was Vista on a different hard drive.Sales person at Fry's Electornics assured me PC would uspport Win 64(HP originally puchased 2007)PC Currently goes to Blue Screen at boot.
I bought a rather high end PC from CyberPower PC, Hard drive had problems a few months after I started using it so I sent it in for a new one. New one is not preloaded with OS, so I am attempting to install from the OS disk I got when I bought the PC.
Hardware:
Gigabyte Mother Board, GA-Z77-D3H (Is the name I found on the mb itself) 1TB Toshiba Hard Drive (Anything else I'll have to look at when my pc is off)
I have been fooling around, probably causing more problems, for 2 days now trying to get the OS install to work.I could not install OS on Hard Drive, got error message after selecting hard disk. (Error: 0x80300002)Switched the BIOS options to default optimal settings Reran the OS installation, the installation ran very slowly and gave me an error message after I selected the Hard Drive to install windows 7 on. (Error: 0x8007045d)Found that some had success after changing hard drive setting from IDE to AHCI, after I did so the installer ran much more smoothly. However when I got to the drive select screen my hard drive was not listed or detected. (Browsing it was called Removable disk C and could not be selected)Checked BIOS to see if it was detected, it was.Reran under AHCI mode, still undetected in disk select. Online help suggested to run a diskpart in command prompt. Hard drive was not shown in that either. Changed mode back to IDE, ran OS installer, waited very long time for it to load.Computer only loads for about a second for about every minute. INCREDIBLY SLOW. This is the case whether I'm waiting on the installer or running command prompt diskpart.
Update: Running in IDE, ran a diskpart, Detects hard drive, Info I obtained; Disk type: ATA Satus: Online Path: 0
[code]....
Tried to run a clean command, failed due to I/O error. took 30+ minutes aswell Update: Booted up and ran os with AHCI setting on. Got to disk drive, still no hard drive. Started fumbling around in Diskpart in command prompt, can get the hard drive to appear as disk 4 after rescanning. any attempts to manipulate it (i.e create partition or clean of partition) results in error and the disk vanishes until I rescan.
My laptop is SONY VAIO VPCEE4FX comes with Windows 7 Home Premium x64 OEM installed. My auntie from U.S gave this to me on my graduation last year.. i never reformat this since i got this laptop. Now, i want to re-install this OS on my laptop but the problem is i dont have the Operating System Disk that is installed on my laptop. I called my auntie on phone and she said she doesnt have the OEM Disk. I used "KeyFinder" to know the CD-KEY of this Operating System. What can i do to re-install my operating system? Can i download Windows 7 Home Premium x64 OEM legally from certain sites?
Okay so I bought a new motherboard and CPU, installed it and turned the computer on, then the windows 7 loads for about 5 seconds then flashes the blue screen 4 half a sec. I already know that I need to reinstall windows 7 again, but I have 2 issues. First one is I have windows7 ultimate, and if i buy windows7 home premium will I be able to do a clean install? Second question is will the install even work on my hard disk drive? I dont want to buy it and not have it load or work properly.
I am having a problem. The OS(Windows 7 x64) finishes installing but when it finishes it boots up again like normal then flashes a quick blue screen error message. I have tried doing what the comments told you to do except for downloading the ISO and burning it to a disk. I just get the same error. I have researched this processor and it turns out it has been known to be VERY dodgy with Windows 7 64-bit.
Ready to start to install Windows 7 Home Premium on my XP Home PC having passed the Windows 7 upgrade advisor Ok. Full install not upgrade. Have set BIOS to boot from CD as 1st, 2nd and also 3rd device for good measure and although I can hear disk spinning, XP boots up rather that Windows 7 setup starting.
can we install the 32 bit version from the Professional upgrade in place of the 64 bit Home Premium with comes preinstalled? I would do this from the very beginning, so we wouldn't have installed any of our software yet, I don't think there is any bloatware form Dell that we will want. I will make the recovery copies of the 64 bit OS first, and then hopefully upgrade to the 32 bit Professional. Things are "tight", and hopefully will not have to purchase a full version of Professional.
Basically I'm ready to explode. As you know, I'm running Ultimate. I recently decided to upgrade to a 64 bit OS. I purchased a 250 gb harddrive for it. (dualboot 32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7) but my ISO file won't boot. I've tried everything. Yes, my PC is 64bit capable.
I already have VirtualBox installed and I'm at the point where I need to get windows 7 installed on virtualbox. How the hell do I do this. Apparently I am missing something because dos says "Boot Fail" blah blah blah and that's as far as I am. Do I just make a boot disc and then use it some how? Do I need other software? Maybe some basic instruction on starting a new virtualbox session. I've tried looking for the boot.ini but I'm thinking it's hidden in dos.
I am in need of a clean install of my OS, no need for any data presently on my laptop. So here is my question, where can I get a Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Operating System disc to use on my system that is free and can also work with my License key [which by the way is the original key that came with the laptop].Now I know that dell [which is the manufacturer of my laptop, I think it is called an OEM key] has downloadable .ISO of the OS I am in need of but I need to know if I can use that on my system with my license key and work: [code] url...
I bought a full install version of Windows 7 Home Premium. My wife's computer is a quad core with 8 gigs of ram. it is currently running 32 bit version of Win 7 Professional,(an upgrade from XP). I want to install 64 bit version so her computer will use all its power, but when I put the 64 bit disc in, it says its the wrong disc, What should I do. if I can't install 64 bit then I've wasted $200.00
I had Windows 7 Home Premium installed and I just wanted to reinstall everything but when I boot it up from CD it is not working for some reason. It just goes straight to Windows 7 log in. Seems like ppls been having problems but they do not seem to have exactly same setting as me. Since I am doing Windows 7 to Windows 7. I wanted to format it but instead of just formatting I tried installing it. But now it is not working.BIOS setting is CD/DVD and I also manually did it by pressing F12.. still not working.
How can i install windows 7 home premium using an ultimate disc.i know there is a file you can delete that will allow you to access all versions of windows but i forgot which file it was.
I am trying to install win7 Home Premium onto a bare Bones PC but the mouse does not work. Checked mouse on another PC and it functions. I am using the USB 2.0 ports
I have built my own pc and i know it works and all that but when i insert the disk for windows 7 Prem i get as far as to select drivers to be installed. It says no drivers were found?
I have a laptop ASUS G60JX and it came with Windows 7 Home Premium OEM Pre-activated, so unfortunately i have formatted it now i want to install a WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM X64 BIT OPERATING SOFTWARE, so which one should i download a RTM version or OEM version, because i want to download a copy of windows and then i will use my genuine key which is installed under my laptop, reply asap.
What the limitation of using Windows 7 Home Premium as a test home web server might be?
- Can I host RDP and remote into the machine? - Host IIS sites? - SQL 2008 Express?
Any limits to these products as well? I'm reading sql 2008 Express has a limitation of 1 processor and 4gb per DB. Does this mean I can install it on a quad core, but it will only use one processor? Any reason I can't install the full version of SQL 2008 on Windows 7 home premium?
How do I install win 7 home premium 64 bit with an Intel Q6600 processor? My system won't allow anything other than the 32 bit installation. Adjustments to the BIOS?
I downloaded the correct .iso file from the Digital River list and have since burned a new DVD using imgburn set at 4x for an excellent copy. At this point I'm not sure if I must first reset the BIOS boot order in Setup or if just having the DVD in the drive will prompt me to press any key to continue. FWIW, I'm using a Liteon DVD-ROM drive Model eTDU108.
