Image Windows 7 Ultimate From Dead MacBookPro SSD To New Lenovo X1 Carbon?
Nov 26, 2012
I've been using a Macbook Pro 15" for years, with Windows 7 Ultimate installed. Naturally I have everything just so.. It died a few days ago. I figured it was the SSD, but it was the mainboard or something. I now have a new Lenovo X1 Carbon, and the SSD from the MacBook Pro is in an ext. USB enclosure. How would the experts recommend that I image the old installation onto the new laptop?I found this article (Restore Windows 7 to different computer ) but it requires the old computer to be working. (keep in mind the X1 doesn't have an optical drive -- I will have to create a bootable USB key for this process.. Or perhaps it's possible to boot off of the external HD -- I'll check the BIOS)
i have a problem in my loptap the OS is window 7 ultimate my problem i have no wireless and i go to mobility but the wireless is off before the driver of my lenovo is window istarter i use Fn+F5 to on my wireless but wrightknow i dont have
I had to re-install and update the 64 bit Windows7. Everything went beautifully including the install of Office 2010 and Quicken 2010 and the Apple drivers. The problem occurred when I tried to download financial information from web sites. There is nothing executable in the Windows Explorer or Downloads folder after I click download.
This happened within Quicken and also trying to download Adobe PDF. I thought the error was due to the financial statement requiring Adobe PDF but when I download that it also disappears.
Just got a question regarding D2 - LOD expansion. Here's what happened, I downloaded the game, installed the game. All good then I mounted the Expansion image via Daemon Tools, had no success. It's not accepting / won't run the image and gave me an error. I got freaked out. System froze and there's nothing that I can do aside from pressing the "reset" button. Is my OS compatible to the game? I got a broken file on my OS (OS issues) or the image itself is corrupted?
When trying to install W7 in 64-bit form I get the error message "The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks."
this is new purchased notebook and i can't install the windows 7 anywehere in the driver
I was wondering if there was a program (similar to vLite) that would allow me to integrate my drivers into a Windows 7 x64 Ultimate disc for re-installation at a later date.
I recently tried to play Dr Who, which I downloaded from the BBC. Twice at the same spot it came to a dead stop. No warning no shutdown sequence, just a dead stop. I have had similar stops on other games, but do not know where to begin to sort it out. The Graphics drivers are up to date.
On a Dell desktop with pre-installed Windows 7, due to a bad HD, I bought and installed a full retail version of Windows 7. Now the ethernet port is dead.
My new laptop with Windows 7 professional (64 bit) has strange problem related to audio. As soon as I connect modem with vendor software, audio becomes dead
well, If I remove the modem device then audio works as usual.
A windows update failed, and didn't back out properly. My machine is left crippled and cannot access the Internet (so can't use MS Driver update!). It won't let me manually download the driver (AGILEVPN.SYS)
A Win7 system has some problems and could NOT be booted itself. So I took an additional bootable repair or LiveSystem CD and start the computer with it. I have now a running WinOS and another dead Win7 e,g, on a partition C: on a hard disc.
Now I want to apply an existing *.reg Script into the registry of the dead system (=NOT the currently running system. Can I do this somehow? Is there e.g. a command
regedit myscript.reg -writetowin C:Windows
whch writes the *,reg file to the Registry of the Win7 system which it find on partition C: in folder "Windows"?
Maybe I can address the target registry file directly regedit myscript.reg -writeregistrydirect C:windows txxxxxxx.dat
In which file(s) is the Registry stored? Second question: Can I at least read from such an external dead Registry?
I allowed the battery on my Acer notebook to run out causing Windows to shut down and lock the current files. As I needed the files urgently I asked a professional to recover them, which he did. Later I connected the mains power and recharged the battery. Now the notebook keyboard will not allow me to enter my password when demanded. The mouse and touchpad work. I have used F8 to try to restore the previous status.
My lappy is dying a certain death and I want to remove the Windows 7 Home Premium OS from it and install it on a new desk top that I am building. Can this be accomplished? I really don't want to spend the $100 for an OEM version when I don't need to.
With either of these two Products, if I create an Image will the Image "include" everything on the Partition?What I'm asking is, in the event I "delete" something from a Partition, and presuming the "deleted" item is not overwritten, will the "deleted" item be part of an Image created AND restorable by Windows or Acronis?
Anyone else experiencing a problem with Hotmail? I cannot sign in, tried to access Hotmail (via Outlook) at 16:39 GMT. Hotmail message was "Sorry Hotmail has a problem." Downer, have to email several people today.
I just bought the new Sony Vaio Z series.After 3 days it has a pixel issue:On a white background, the pixel is red On a lighter blue background, the pixel is black On a green background, the pixel is black On a red, dark blue or black background, the pixel seems normal (the right color and blends in with the rest as it should)Is this a dead or stuck pixel?
My 3-year-old $300 Gateway desktop does not respond to the power switch which tests good. Rather than investing any more time or any money in this machine, I'm going to buy a new one.Can I just replace the new HD with the HD from the old PC so that it will be the boot drive?If not, is there a way to get everything from the old HD to the new one? (The new one will have Win 7 Home Premium. Can I install the Win 7 Ultimate that I had used on the Gateway on it?)
I am trying to eail someone from a file, but when I try it says there is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Please install an email programor, if one is already installed, create abn association in the Defaulf Program panel.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit The windows system image backed up on my external hard drive (2TB WD USB3) is not showing while restoring the PC from an image.
The only option available is my hard drive partition on which i also had saved a system image. Though windows recommends External hard drive for backing up image when backing up the system.
After I went on holiday, all my browsers stopped working.IE and chrome just dont start at all, and Firefox and SeaMonkey(I even tried that one!) give me the error that the Microsoft Registry Server stopped working.Opera is the only one that still works, but I can't get comfortable with it.Firefox Safe mode does work, only when I choose to delete all my data of Firefox(all settings, bookmarks, saved passwords and cookies) normal Firefox starts, only for 2 times when I have to do it all over again.They all stopped right after my holiday, and I didn't change anything.I've already tried reinstalling chrome and firefox several times, clearing all data for IE, restoring to a previous point, but nothing seems to work.
Computer -> properties:
This is all on my desktop, I've entered all specs I know in my profile.
I have an HP dc7700 that we are upgrading to Windows 7 and have a PCI controller error. The hardware ID is: PCIVEN_8086&DEV_2994&SUBSYS_2802103C&REV_02.
Just my bad luck - first CoD4 crashes with DirectX error and now Left 4 Dead does that too (those are unrelated problems as far as I can tell, but still)
Anyways, straight to the point: I get "Failed to lock index buffer in CMeshDX8::LockIndexBuffer" error right after intro movie starts. So far none of the solutions I found thanks to google worked so I was wondering if any of you nice people seen that problem. Or even better - solution.
Made me sad when two of my favourite games refused to work in freshly installed system
I have a black spot on my taskbar and from my search here on SF and Googling, the difference between a stuck pixel and a dead one is that a stuck pixel will be white or a colour while a dead pixel will be black. This leads me to my conclusion that what I have is a dead pixel (my warranty ran out about 2 weeks ago so the timing seems right).The majority of opinions is that there is no fix for a dead pixel. When I Google, however, there are 2 or 3 hits that claim there is a fix.
When right clicking on the desktop. You can Create a new Folder, Enter the Nvidia Control Panel (and I do often), go to personalize, and something else I do often. "Refresh" I right click and do refresh all the time. It's a bad habit I started in XP.
Basically When I first loaded 7.. it seemed fine. I installed a bunch of drivers, so I'm not sure what one did it. But now when I right click while I'm on the desktop. It takes a solid 3 or so seconds to pop-up.. that is WAY to slow. Vista it was instant.. and Windows 7 was at first also.
Everything else seems speedy. Starting from Shutdown.. opening programs. Everything is pretty speedy. But the right click feature I use often. It's really slow.
Also, when I right click on Taskbar, or any of the desktop icons, it's super Fast. only the right click on the actual desktop.
I think I might go back to WHQL Nvidia driver instead of the BETA for 7. that is what I think I'll try first.
i want to get NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 PCI-E Graphics Card ut will my motherboard support it i got my pc back in 2007 and my previous card was geforce 8800gtx
If the internal battery on my desktop pc is dead,could this cause my pc not to start?And if so, by replacing it will I be able to start my,pc normally or do I have to do something else?Reason I'm asking is my pc has power but no splash,screen shows up. The light indicator that shows,activity goes on briefly and the dvd light indicator,turns on briefly. But nothing happens, black screen.
My laptop was fried when it crashed during a BIOS update and I need to get the files off of it. I do not have a SATA adapter but I do have another laptop that I can plug the hard drive into (which isn't corrupted). Obviously I cannot boot the computer up since the Windows installation is going to differ but I was wondering if there was any sort of bootable CD software that I could run to recover files from the drive. The hard drive was running 64 bit Windows 7.
Yesterday my computer just went into a sleep mod, after rebooting the PC the screen resolution + internet was really weird.After installing new driver for my graphic card the resolution problem was fixed. But the internet was still "broken". In the network and sharing -> adapter it's says that I'am enabled but not connected.
I've tried:
- Ping 127.0.0.1 and got "Transmit failed. General failure". - Net stock winmgmt + netsh etc. - Uninstalled the firewall. - Turned off the computer for 10 min and removed my RAM for 10 min. - Got a new network adapter. - System restore.
