Install Win 7 Pro on Envy m6-1225dx

Recently purchased an Envy m6-1225dx and immediately installed win 7 pro like I have on many other laptops only to find NO driver support from HP? If I list the Hardware IDs does anyone know where to find the drivers?

Hi:
All of the W7 x64 drivers and software from this model will also work on yours.

Blue screen when installing Win XP Pro on Satellite A100-211

Hi all.
I'm started to get really desperate here!! I've just bought my new Satellite A100-211 and now I want to install my own copy of Windows XP Professional (since the notebook ships with XP Home). But, when I try to boot from my Win Xp Pro CD (with no SP1 or SP2 integrated), i get a blue STOP screen just as the setup application reaches the "Setup is starting Windows" phase!! The STOP message states something about a file named "pci.sys".
I don't know what is wrong or how to install XP Pro!! It should be so simple! I even tried getting the SATA drivers from intel and load them at the windows XP Pro install setup (with F6) with a floppy, but I still get the same blue screen at the same stage of the setup!!
Can anybody PLEASE help me??? Can anyone explain how can I install Win XP Pro on this notebook???
Thanks very much in advance!! I'm really really freaking out with this
Octavio.

Hi
Did you get this error message?
"stop error 0x7E in Pci.sys"
I have found information on the Microsoft website that you need the latest Microsoft service pack.

Problem installing Win XP Pro SP2 on 2008 Mac Pro running 10.6.8

Okay, I have never setup or ran a bootcamp partition so I apologize in advance for my ignorance on the subject. I have been attempting to install win xp pro (SP2). I am using the Boot Camp Assistant v3.0.4. I have created a 32GB FAT32 partition and at the point I click Continue Installation (with the XP Pro disc in the drive) the computer reboots to supposedly install.
What happens instead is I get a revolving censorship/ban circle icon, folder with question mark and apple logo. It just continuously will flash between those 3 icons until I restart.
Here's what I've tried...
-removing all other drives. I'm attempting to install on the boot drive which is in bay 1.
-removed all external devices only things plugged in are my usb keyboard and DVI monitor
-deleting and recreating the partition
-I have the xp pro cd in the top drive and the snow leopard cd in the bottom drive (both internal cd/dvd drives)
Computer:
Model Name:          Mac Pro
Model Identifier:          MacPro2,1
Processor Name:          Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed:          3 GHz
Number Of Processors:          2
Total Number Of Cores:          8
L2 Cache (per processor):          8 MB
Memory:          10 GB
Bus Speed:          1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version:          MP21.007F.B06
SMC Version (system):          1.15f3
No matter what I try I am met with the same results. I have held down the option key and manually selected the windows xp cd. It seems to be booting but immediately turns off my DVI monitor which, well, makes it impossible for me to actually know what is happening. I do have a nvidia GeForce 8800 which only has two DVI ports off the back. I do have the adapter and an old VGA monitor I could pull out of the attic but would rather not unless that is my only option. Can someone in the community please point me in the right direction?
Many, many, many thanks!
Curtis
OKC, OK

Update: my problem was solved by getting my VGA monitor out of the attic. Once windows was done and I ran the setup.exe off the Snow Leopard CD, all of the drivers were updated to allow me to switch back over to my apple cinema display.
Also, I did need to hold down the option key to select the windows CD to install...and again to select the windows partition to boot but so far everything is going well with Bootcamp 3.0.4 and XP SP2...other than it is windows.

Installing Win 7 Pro as VM on Macbook Pro with 128G SSD

Hi there,
I've been searching for some good tips about installing Win 7 Pro as a VM on my new Macbook Pro (4GB i7 version) with a 128 SSD.
Here is what I have and need to achieve:
I have Parallel 6 to set up the VM;
Win 7 Pro 32-bit or 64-bit.
Needs: I only plan to use the Win 7 VM for these:
1. Run MS Office 2010 Pro Plus -- For compatibility reasons, I just have to use the Window's version of Office, Office 2011 for Mac is not an option for me;
2. I use video conference a lot, so I need to be able to control the built-in Webcam and Mic of my Macbook Pro from the Windows side, any speical driver I need?
3. I need to share some files between Mac and Win, but I guess the VM works fine for this kind of task.
3. As you can see, I only have limited hard drive space, any foreseeable issue with what I need to install?
Any tip is much appreicated!

No bootable device issue when installing Win 7 Pro 64 with OSX 10.8.3

Trying to install Win 7 Pro 64 on brand new iMac running 10.8.3.
Using external LaCie optical drive to read Win 7 OEM DVD installer.
Using Bootcamps Assistant, I can create the Windows partition but then when the iMac restarts to insatll Windows, I get a black screen with the message No Bootable device found.
Seems the iMac is not able to boot from the LaCie external drive.
Have tested the LaCie on both a mac and a PC and it works fine.
This iMac can see the drive and its contents in OSX but can't seem to boot to it to install Win 7.
How do I get a round this?
I have done dozens of dual boots using bootcamp but all with Macs that have built in optical drives. Have never had this much trouble.

I just got this working - finally!
My solution was to download the Win7 ISO file from microsoft and then use BootCamp Assistant to create a USB ISO. From there, I was able to boot to that "disk" and install Windows. I read a variety of posts some saying that you cannot use an external DVD drive, others saying that you could but it had to be an Apple SuperDrive. In any case, the ISO download worked and I would recommend that approach.

About T420 Fn keys after install Win 8 pro

Few days ago, I installed Win 8 pro on my T420 and found that I can't use my Fn keys like bluetooth.
Does anyone have similar issue??

Hey there fowen & flrkd,
After some research I found some possible options that may help recover functionality of those FN keys.
Here is an update to help bring back functionality of FN keys. http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS029026.
Alternatively, it may also require a power management update.

Unable to install Win 8 Pro on GPT 3TB disk

I am unable, with all the willpower in the world, to install Windows 8 Pro on a 3TB harddisk.
I have tried about everything, I'm an IT professional and I just can't get it to work. The pinned topic from xmad does not work for me at all.
I'm using a Z77A-G45 motherboard with the latest official UEFI BIOS (2.9). I boot from the UEFI DVD Drive with an official Windows 8 DVD, check my disk is in GPT mode (it is) and continue the installer.
When I arrive at the disk partitioning screen, I select create new partition and Windows creates a 100 mbyte partition, a 2 TB partition and leaves about 750GB as unusable.
I check the disk and windows has moved it back to a normal non GPT disk.
I tried manually creating the partition with diskpart: an EFI partition with 30 megabyte for the bootloader, and MSR partition of 300 megabyte and a primary partition of 2.7 TB. After refreshing the partitioning screen I see the correct partitions and Windows simply says "can not install on a disk that is in EFI mode".
I've searched and read and tried every thing but I just can not get this to work. I'm getting pretty desperate here and would like any and all input you can give me.

Enable win 8 mode in Bios, but disable msi fast boot and fast boot for now.
It is easier if you install from a usb, re-format and clean the drive using diskpart and follow the guide then.
If any trouble, update to the latest bios here:

Trying to install win xp pro on Satellite A200-TH1 (PSAE3C)

Hello everyone,
I just bought this laptop. It came with vista. I want to install xp pro on it, I mean keeping vista as well. So I did partition, and allocated 72GB for xp pro. Now the problem is that, xp pro install cd does not recognize the harddrive. It says no harddrive present.
It is a SATA drive. So I did some googling on it, and found that xp pro does not have SATA drivers so that is why it can not see the hard drive. I need to install the SATA drivers with the xp pro by pressing F6...and blah blah. Since this laptop did not come with the floppy, so I found on some forums to include the drivers with xp pro cd and make an iso image and try to run it.
I tried many times but every time it gives me error that cable is broken. Can anyone pls let me know what is wrong? And also if someone can guide me to get the right drivers for my SATA drive and intel chipset 965PM...If I go on to the Intel website...
They are all .EXE files. I want driver files only, so i can insert them in the xp cd. Thanks for your help and guidence in adavance.
Adam
Hello All,
I was able to get the drivers...now I came accross another hurdle... When I put the XP installation cd (which is an ISO bootable disk.. this includes xp sp2 and realtek nic drivers) it gives me message that checking for media..RTL8100E/8101E v1.02....test failed...check if the cable is connected...
Any ideas? What should I do now? Any suggestion would be appreciated...thanks

PLS HELP ME ON THIS

Hi
Please ensure that the Intel Matrix Storage Manger was included into the Win XP setup.
During the installation of XP, setup will ask you to include the 3rd partly sata drivers.
Then you should press the F6 button und could include the Intel Matrix Storage Manager from the external USB FDD drive.
I have found many postings regarding this issue.

Windows Server Essentials Connector stops responding during install Win 7 Pro to 2012 R2

I am trying to reconnect a Win 7 Pro computer to a new Essentials 2012R2 and when it asks me to set it up for just me or multiple users a message pops up saying
it has stopped responding. It sets up a profile of _clientsetup_$ and it shows up in dashboard as an offline device. This computer was hooked up to an Essentials 2012R2 previously. Tried uninstalling the connector software, removing the computer from the domain,
renaming the computer and re-installing the connector software from the http://(server)/connect. Even tried backing up the existing profiles and creating a new clean one and went through the above procedure with the same results. I set up 4 others
with no issues and it would be the bosses computer that fails. I am a newbie so any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi,
Sorry for my interrupting.
Would you please let us know whether this problematic client computer was upgraded to Windows 7 Pro from a previous OS? Did you install any third-party application on this Windows 7 Pro client computer? Just a confirmation, thanks for your understanding.
Best regards,

Installing Win 7 Pro 64 bit

Greetings:
I have a X200 7448-CTO preloaded with Win 7 Pro 32 bit.
Would it be possible to install the 64 bit on my system?
Any input is much appreciated. `
Solved!
Go to Solution.

yes it is fully supported. You can approach this upgrade in several ways.
1. If you want to keep the recovery partition for the win 7 pro 64 bit, then you can order the 64 bit version of the recovery media from Lenovo service.
2. If you don't care about the recovery partition and want to keep the cost of upgrade at a bare minimum (well free for that matter). Then download the windows 7 64 bit iso from here:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/windows-os-software/428068-legal-windows-7-download-links-just-like-...
Then follow this instruction for installing all the drivers.
