Need help restoring W7 64 bit Home Premium to my Gateway desktop

I lost my system due to a hal.dll message last wed 7/5. After trying for several days I finally realized my 2nd HD was screwing up my boot sequence I was trying to boot from an old WindowsXP file on the 2nd HD. Disconnected the HD and tried doing a clean install using a neighbors install disk that he had gotten from the Geek Squad for his Gateway laptop. It looked like everything was working well until disc 3 trying to install Dritek Load Manager. The computer light was blinking but the green progress bar woild not advance. After about an hour I terminated the job.  I couldn't go past this file. The system will now boot into Safe Mode but I don't know what else to do any suggestions? I looked at purchasing a W7 install disc. I can't believe how much they're trying to get for this program when W10 is ready to come out for sale. Help HelpGrowlybear 

I appreciate your answer ironfly.I started the reinstall again and it stopped at the same place. I tried Ctrl-Alt-Del and it brought up the task manager, but it wouldn't stay open long enough to read, it didn't appear to be waiting for a prompt. How can I bypass this step? I also have an Acer that has Dritek installed on it. Can I copy the filesfrom my laptop? If so where do I copy them to.I can boot into Safe Mode, is there anything I can do in Safe Mode? I can't believe so many people are having this problem and Acer hasn't come ouut with a solution. Thanks for any help you can give me.growlybear

  • Can someone help me with installing the latest version of iTunes for Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium?

    Latest version of iTunes for Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium downloads just fine.  But, fails to install. 
    "Unblocked and gave all permissions."  Still, no go. 
    I see by reading the other posts on this forum that I am not alone.  Any help?
    Frustrated!

    Ok...This was very odd.  I left the installation program, in what I considered a frozen state on screen.  After about 30 mins, to my surprise, It installed!  I'm not computer literate, so, I don't know what to say.  But, to just WAIT for it to respond!  Good Luck!

    Hi,
    In this case, you can try repairing windows image using DISM command.

    If it still can't work, please make a repair install to fix your system.

  • Trouble installing Vista 64 bit home premium

    I am trying to use boot camp to install Vista 64 bit home premium. The disk is a full install. Boot camp works fine, but when I insert the windows disk and attempt to boot off of it, I am confronted with a screen that gives me two options with no names, labeled only 1 and 2, and instructions to select a CD boot type. However, I cannot select any of them because my keyboard does not work! I have tried several times, with several partition sizes, and even brought out an old USB Microsoft keyboard, which is still not recognized. I have done this with only non-apple peripherals, as well - microsoft mouse, acer monitor, and all USB devices plugged directly into the back of the computer. I have not seen this problem listed anywhere else, so can anyone here help me? I have looked everywhere. Thank you.

    It is an issue iwth our older EFI 1.x (or EFI32) and Vista SP1 64-bit that needs UEFI 2.x (EFI64).
    Sort of the same issue as the Nvidia 8800GT had to come out in two flavors.
    I have Windows already installed, older pre-SP1, and from there I can install SP1 DVD.
    At this point, I much prefer Windows 7 over Vista x64 SP1 or SP2(beta). Just runs better. Last day tomorrow maybe to download.

  • Error 1720 when installing CS3 on Win 7 64-bit home premium

    I've been directed to the Forum for help as the Support Tech said she could not help me as they only help with CS5.  She said that CS3 WON"T WORK on a Windows 7 machine and yet I have googled and found people who have had it work.  She then told me that they will probably experience lag and other errors once they start using it more fully.  I smelt BS right about then in that conversation.  She couldn't confirm that if I purchased CS5 upgrade that my CS3 upgrade would qualify as upgrade.  Yeah, I'm really going to spend $800 to find out (not).
    Basically it ended where I either buy CS5 or go the Adobe Forums for help.
    So okay here I am.  Long post (sorry) but want to get all the fact out there.
    I purchased CS3 back in 2008 and installed on my XP machine.
    Just purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit home premium.
    Tried to install CS3 and as soon as it tries to install I get this message:
    Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue.  Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance.
    Error 1720.  There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A script required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
    I have tried the following solutions (found on Google), none of them work:
    1) installing in safe mode (with just Windows features in the start up)
    2) redownloading the files to ensure I didn't have a corrupted version
    3) installing as Administrator
    4) deregister/register Windows Installer
    5) looked for update to Windows Installer but mine is up to date
    6) checked that Windows Installer had "started" on my laptop (yes)
    7) used Adobe cleanup utility
    8) used Adobe licence recovery (Acrobat Pro (CS3) wouldn't get past the licence stage although it did install)
    Support Tech lady said that no old CS software would work on Windows 7 BUT last night I installed Photoshop CS Version 8 and it installed perfectly.  What I noticed different is that PS CS V8 used Installshield whereas CS3 I am told didn't use Installshield.
    So I am left with my new laptop using PS CS V8 with Dreamweaver MX.
    BTW Dreamweaver MX installed okay and it used Installshield too - so is that the reason CS3 won't install - it not using Installshield?
    Does anyone have any solutions not tried above?
    Am I just going to have to use old software on my Win7 machine?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sarah

    Hi Bob,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Yes I have tried the CS5 Cleanup Tool - multiple times.  Doesn't help.
    I am surprised to hear that you installed with no problems in light of Tech Support being adament that it won't work on Windows 7 and is not supported.
    I told Tech that I didn't accept that as there are probably hundreds of thousands of users with CS3 who have installed or tried to install on a Win7 machine and not everyone has hundreds of dollars spare to upgrade.
    I only really use DW, PS and Acrobat in the Suite so I'm going to have to save to buy those products but it won't be anytime soon.
    Thanks.

    You won't find the registry entry because it's not been set and
    therefore the default is another value. You need to create it to change
    that value (to the above).

    Hi Warren,
    I assume you simply plugged the printer without preinstalling any software. Please correct me otherwise.
    Please remove the existing device as following:
    Unplug the USB from the back of the printer.
    Enter Control Panel > Devices and printers
    Right click any 1400 printer icon, then click Remove Device.
    If there are several icons of your printer, repeat the same for any of them.
    Reboot your PC.
    Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
    Left click once any presented printer (e.g. Fax), then click Print Server Properties on the Top bar.
    Click the Driver tab.
    If there is any 1400 listed, select it and click Remove.
    Select to remove the 2nd option. Remove printer driver and printer driver Package.
    Download and install the Full Feature Software for your printer (HP PSC 1400 Series) below:
    *Make sure not to connect the USB till prompted to do so during the install.

  • I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

    I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

    Plug it to your computer using iPod USB Cable (any cable should work excluding iPhone 5 and Shuffle cables)...... when you see your iPod in iTunes go to that iPod and click restore...... the whole process should take (depending on what you have on your iPod and its is up to date) it should take no longer than 30 minutes...... then it will ask if you want to set up as new iPod or restore from back-up (itunes back up), since you said:
    so its like new
    click set as new iPod and follow through what they said.

    Mission accomplished. While waiting for your reply,. I found an article that mentioned a copy/paste of the following code from the old pref.js to the new pref.js:
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo.position", 0);
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.description", "Outlook Express Address Book");
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.dirType", 2);

    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.dirType", 2);
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.filename", "impab.mab");

  • PE7 using Win7 64 bit Home Premium

    Hello
    I bought a new PC in April which has Win7 64-bit Home Premium on it.
    Although I had previously intended using this PC solely for music production, I've decided to also use it for some fairly basic AVCHD editing.
    Will I have any problems using PE7 on this PC?
    Kindest Regards

    Hi Guys
    Thanks for the speedy replies. I really appreciate it. Thanks also for the links to the other posts. It was interesting stuff in respect of HDD setup and VSTs. Aplogies for omitting various system info.
    My current set up is:
    Win7 64-bit Home Premium.
    i7 930 2.8GHz Quad Core (also overclocked I'm told)
    6GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM
    I have 3 x HDDs:
    500GB Software and OS.
    500GB Audio Files.
    1TB Sample Files (and anything else I wish to put on it).
    I'm fairly new to filming and have a Panasonic HDC HS9. At this point, my intentions are to do some musical performances, possibly to put on Youtube/Vimeo etc.I am aware that these websites will likely compress my audio to heck. However, it would be great just to have some HD footage retained of the performances for personal use and prosperity.
    Just for background info, what I am intending doing is:
    Recording my audio via my preamps into an RME Multiface II (Audio Interface) into Cakewalk Sonar Producer Edition 8.5.
    Transfer the footage from my HDC HS9 to my DAW via the USB cable or SD card.
    I was then intending exporting the audio (.wav) from Sonar and then importing it into PE7 and syncing it up with the footage.
    Is my setup okay for PE7 providing I persevere with the possible VST blacklist issue?
    Regards
    Stewart
