Windows 7 Won't Boot After (clean) Installation

Mar 29, 2012

After formatting and setting a new partition using the installation disk, I install Windows 7, all goes well. But as soon as the installation is finished and my laptop restarts, it wont boot from the HDD. I keep getting error messages saying:

Windows Boot Manager

Windows failed to start....
File: ootBCD
Status: 0xc000000e

[Code].....

A copy of the current boot configuration data will be saved as c:ootcd.backup.0001

However when i hit the "ok go ahead and fix it then!"-button i get another error saying Startup Repair cant save the new boot options. Anyone know if i can fix this problem with BCDedit or bootrec.exe

Windows 7 Clean Installation From USB 3.0 Fails?

Sep 13, 2012

Got Windows 7 Clean Installation over the computer's USB 3.0 port done without too many problems but with some hassle anyhow.For the clean installation I followed the procedure of GreGrocker Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 and put the whole installation onto a 4GB USB Flash Drive.From the computer's USB 2.0 ports there was no problem whatsoever and Windows 7 got installed very quickly.However, over the computer's USB 3.0 port things weren't easy. I finally got it done by uploading the proper USB 3.0 Root Hub and Controller drivers *.ini and *.sys files.Strangely enough, at first everything went well over the USB3 port and the WinPE environment with its RAM drive (X:) got deployed correctly. The only sensible explanation for that is that the computer's BIOS used the appropriate and build-in USB3 driver to do that part of the job.However, once the the installer (located in the X: drive) was about to install Window 7 on the system HDD, it asked me for a CD/DVD driver. I loaded the appropriate USB3 drivers at that stage and the installation process continued over the USB3 port.I had a closer look in the RAM drive (X:WindowsSystem32DriverStoreFileRepository), and indeed, there are no USB3 drivers present anywere in that folder, only USB2 drivers where in there, named: usb.inf_amd64... and usbpor.inf_amd64... So I was wondering, as USB3.0 is so common and the future standard, why aren't there any USB3 drivers in that folder present? Is there any possibility that the creators of the Windows 7 Clean Installation files (Digital River, or My Digital Live) could put USB3 drivers in the Win7CI package?

Clean Windows 7 Install On New SSD Installation Error?

Aug 3, 2012

I have a Samsung series 9 (NP9004XC) and I am upgrading the 128gb SSD that came with the computer to a Crucial M4 256GB mSATA. I am doing a clean install from a bootable USB that I created from the recovery disc that was included with the computer.I can load up setup but once I get to the part where I choose what disk I want to install it to I get an error. There is only one disk listed (Disk 0, Partition 1) and when I try to select that disk to install Windows to I get the error:"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."

So I decided to upgrade my desktop and have completely replaced all of the hardware, however that's irrelevant. I currently have Windows Vista Home Basic on the system but was offered a copy of Windows 7 Professional for $30 from my university and wanted to know if I could install a clean copy of Windows 7 Pro on a system that has Windows Vista Home Basic since I know I cannot upgrade.

Windows 7 Clean Installation - Dell XPS 410 Slow / Unresponsive

Dec 1, 2011

I've been troubleshooting this computer for some time now. At first, I disabled RAID because of the blue screens and I found that one was bad and the second of the RAID 1 appeared fine. Well, I installed XP to ensure it would work and that was extremely slow. My client didn't have a disc to XP MCE, but instead bought Windows 7. The installation took about 12 hours and the system is often unresponsive. On resource monitor, the 2.13Ghz Conroe CPU is barely tapped and the 2GB of RAM is barely at 30%. However, the system takes forever to boot and it very often stops responding for a period of time.

I did my research and found out that this model--original specs--can handle 7 better than this. I told the client it was probably an HDD error, as it seems to hang everytime the system must access the HDD. I can't even run the Index to find out what the systems rating is. I mem tested the RAM and chkdsk the HDDs before removing the first because of its clear faults in its inability to hold an OS installation. I recently installed the 2.5.3 BIOS update, but I haven't had a chance to install a newer version of Intel Matrix Manager.

Factory OEM Clean Install Of Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit?

Sep 29, 2012

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.

Windows 7 Home - Upgrading From 32bit To 64bit (Requires Clean Install)

May 11, 2011

I have a computer running a 32 bit oem version of windows 7 home. I really need to change this to a 64 bit version. I do not want to do this illegally. Can I buy this upgrade copy of 7 professional, perform a clean install of windows prof. 64 bit with the upgrade disc, and then use my current oem 32 bit home disc and or license key, to validate that i do in fact have a copy of windows currently.

So technically I wont be "Upgrading" from 32 to 64, I will be re-installing. I have asked several tech savy friends, and while they don't think it cant work, they are unsure. Essentially I am asking if anyone knows what validation windows requires for its upgrade discs. I am given to understand it requires you to put in your original windows disc at some point, and i assume your original key, but will it accept a 32 bit disc/key?

Clean Installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit From Vista Home Premium 64bit?

Feb 28, 2010

I got windows 7 ultimate 32bit free from my school, and decided that I wanted to clean install, and not upgrade it. I transferred all my files off, booted the laptop up with the windows 7 disk, and proceeded to clean install. I didn't have the drivers cd for my laptop, but I just wiped my drive and installed 7 anyway. Now I have windows 7 ultimate 32bit, and can only use 3 of my 4 gigabytes of memory.. The thing I don't really understand is the whole upgrading option, and like, I know that it's a windows 7 32bit dvd, but it doesn't seem right to go from 64bit to 32bit. So is there anyway I can make it 64bit without having to buy a new dvd? And if not, how much am I missing out on, with not having 64bit, especially with having 4 gigabytes of ram?

Windows Repair Installation For Home Premium 7 64 Bit Will Not Run

Aug 23, 2012

I am trying to run a Windows 7 Repair installation and the install is stopping because I have a more recent version of Windows than what is on my DVD. Which is true. I am running Window 7 SP1 and the DVD is just Windows 7.

I am following the tutorial here: Repair Install

I basically chose an "upgrade" vs "custom" when I was asked about the type of upgrade that I wanted to run. The installation proceeded and then stopped and stated that I had a more current version of Windows than what I was trying to install.

Can I still run a repair install?

Home Group Password From An Old Installation Of Windows 7?

Dec 26, 2011

I've just completed a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium. When I connected the pc to the wlan, Windows asked me to type in the Home Group password from a machine called "Uss-Enterprise". The odd thing is that "Uss-Enterprise" was the name of the previous install of Windows on the same PC...So, I'm just curious of why the fresh install of Windows did manage to get network setup information from the previous installalation. I'm shure I deleted and formatted the Windows partition before re-installing Windows, and named the PC something else.
