Where can i get a FRESH Windows 8 iso? (LEGALLY)

Hey guys,
I wanted to know where you can get a Windows 8 iso, NOT a upgrade iso.
I already did some googleing, and http://www.redmondpie.com/download-windows-8-iso-x86-x64-file-directly-from-micr osoft/ this website seemed to tell me you can get it by downloading a file from Microsoft and just entering a product Key.
However, for this i think you actually need a Windows 7 , because it is an UPGRADE iso, not a fresh system-builder iso.
So i was wondering, where can you get a fresh Windows 8 iso to install on my MacBook, which doesn't have Windows 7?
Or can you use the iso described in remondpie and use it to install Windows 8?
Thanks!
PS According to many people, the new MAcBook Air (2013) which i have does not work really well when you install windows with a CD. That's why i'm trying to use a USB and iso to download it.

iso is just a 100% bit by bit image of an optical disc
there are millions of free programs which will make an iso file out of an optical disc in a few minuts

Satellite C850 - Where can I get and Win7 istallation .iso from?

Hi guys,
I've searched around and found lots of threads, but haven't actually found a solution.
I bought C850 with Win7-64-home-premium preinstalled for my wife.
First I wanted to decline Microsoft EULA and claim money back for Win7 licence, but I thought its only 50 or 60 quid, and I might want it once a year so I left it as is.
First impression - its Terrible slow !!!
I have an old NB100, with Atom and 2GB RAM running Linux witch I use from time to time when I work on the move and this old tiny netbook is A LOT faster then my new C850 with i3 and 8GB of RAM. I mean A LOOOOOT faster.
Then I run Mint Live-CD and then I saw how fast C850 can be if only given real operating system instead of Microsofts crapware.
Then I installed WIn7-64-professional and there was a BIG difference. It wasn't nowhere near as fast as on Linux Mint, but it was whole lot better then original install.
That was only to check how it goes on clean install. I do not have licence for Win7-pro for C850 and I have not even a slightest intention of paying for something as useless as Win7. People should be paid for all the suffering caused by Win7.
On the other hand I would gladly pay for Linux Mint and in fact I have made a nice donation to the project not long time ago :)
Conclusion - slowdown was casued by Toshiba bloatware (which is completely not needed for proper operation of laptop!) and all the other stuff like McAfee or Nero.
I've tried to do reinstall but the reinstalled Win7 comes with all this bloatware and I need clean Win7 install.
To cut short answers like "install and delete waths not needed" - that doesn't solve the problem for two reasons:
1) if install and delete, a lot of stuff stays on the system, registry entries, lots of files etc
2) I need and .iso of Win7, so I can slipstream few things and get rid of WHOLE LOT of useless things
Where can I get and istallation .iso from ?
I mean clean Win7 without all that Toshiba bloatware, McAfee, Nero and other rubbish.
Mind you, I purchased a laptop with Win7 licence so I do have LEGAL RIGHT to use Win7 on its own.
Any hint VERY MUCH appreciated.
Thank you.

On this forum you can find a lot of similar threads where people write about the same experience. We can discuss about this theme for days but the conclusion is always the same: new notebooks are delivered with recovery image that contains OS, all necessary drivers, Toshiba specific tools and utilities, additional software and some stuff that nobody needs.
Nobody force notebook owners to use recovery image like this. What you must do is OS optimizing. Remove all software you dont need, disable auto start for all not important stuff and check Windows settings. I do the same all the time and there is big difference how notebook runs, especially start-up time will be much shorter. On this forum you can find very interesting threads about that.
So my advice for you is to install recovery image again and optimize it. The performance will be OK and your wife will have nice piece of hardware for everyday work.
> 1) if install and delete, a lot of stuff stays on the system, registry entries, lots of files etc
Everything can be removed but if you dont do this it is definitely not so critical for notebook performance.
> 2) I need and .iso of Win7, so I can slipstream few things and get rid of WHOLE LOT of useless things
At first, you will not find iso file anywhere and slipstreaming will not work at all. You cannot unbundle recovery image and use parts that you need. It doesnt work on this way.
I just hope you have created recovery disc before you have started your testing phase.

Satellite L300-1AM - Where can I get drivers for Windows 7?

How in the title
From where can I download drivers for Windows 7 RTM (32bit) for Toshiba Satellite L300-1AM? Is it possible anyway? I see on the website only drivers for Vista/XP/OS independent.
Which of them are compability with Win7?
Thanks for your help.

Hi
>I see on the website only drivers for Vista/XP/OS independent.
>Which of them are compability with Win7?
The drivers for Windows Vista are compatible to Windows 7 and most of them work on Windows 7.
So you can try these drivers.
But drivers especially for Windows 7 you will not find at the moment because Windows 7 isnt on the market as yet. You have to wait until the official release because some days or weeks later normally the drivers support starts.

Satellite U400D - Where can I get drivers for Windows XP?

Hello,
Could you please send me weblinks to Windows XP drivers for satellite U400D? It took ages and i didn't find any of them!!
Thanks a lot, i am getting desperade

Hi
The Satellite U400D supports only Vista 32bit and Vista64 because on the Toshiba driver download page I can only find drivers for these Windows versions.
So you should be happy with the preinstalled OS because U400D is fast enough for Windows Vista. It should work really well with Vista.
If you want pretty old Windows XP you have to collect the drivers yourself. Here are some exaples where you can search for drivers:

Where can i get an official windows disk to download on my mac book

anyone suggest the cheapest place,my current pc's have ones specific to the computer manufacturer
thanks

These OEM versions will work with Boot Camp and/or Parallels or VMFusion. Though as OEM versions you won't get any support from Microsoft, for that you will need to purchase the full retail versions.
Windows XP Home
Windows XP Professional
Windows Vista Ultimate
Note that Windows Vista Home can not be used with Parallels or VMFusion due it licensing restrictions.
Windows Vista Home Premium

Re: Qosmio F50 - Where can I get drivers for Windows 7?

Hi
My university has a MSDNAA agreement with Microsoft, allowing all the students to benefit from free Windows Licenses, including Windows 7 Pro (32bit and 64bit). I have had one since September 15th, and Toshiba Europe still hasn't posted any drivers for my Qosmio F50, so I can't use it.
Any solutions?
PS: I went to Toshiba USA's website and they have drivers for the Qosmio F55 (the equivalent of the European F50), so if any of you can tell me which F55 is equivalent to the F50-10K, I'll be more than happy to try to get its drivers, test them, and get back to you with feedback.
Thanks

Hi
I think nobody is able to say what US model is exactly the European F50-10K. ;)
In your case I would choose a F55 model and download the drivers. Try to install them and see what happens. After this you can post the result because it could be interesting for other users.
Normally there is no significant difference between F50 models.
By the way, the most Vista drivers should also work on Windows 7. Its worth a try! ;)

Can't get my fresh Windows Server 2012 to print

Problem: I'm taking on a new server project and haven't had any experience with Windows Servers at all. Everything has gone smoothly until we went to take a network printer and share it between our two networks.
Here's a run down of our setup. We have a wireless network and a wired network each connected to our server. Our server is a dedicated file server as well as hosts our accounting software and information. We have 3 printers on the wired network
and one new printer hard lined into the wireless router. I am trying to share the new xerox work center 7220 that is hardwired into the wireless router to our hardwired network as well so the whole company has access to our new main printer.
I go into our server and I can see the xerox machine and install it as I normally would. I go into the settings and everything looks fine the IP matches everything looks good I go to print a test page and nothing. But yet when I use my laptop
to double check and test from the wireless network it prints just fine so the printer is functioning perfectly though the network.
Any suggestions or ideas on what to look for? I installed the printer as admin. By all appearances I should be able to print but nothing happens. The job never goes to the print que. My next idea is to hard wire the printer into the third lan port
on my server and try to share it that way but I can't test this as the printer is in use at the moment.

Are both the wired and wireless network on the same IP subnet?
If not, is the new printer configured with the proper gateway to route off its subnet?

Apple only supports Windows on certain hardware.
http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
Apple provides their framework for Windows to run on a Mac, a piece of software called a Hybrid MBR that bridges the gap between how Windows reads the drive partition table (MBR) and EFI/GUID partition table that Mac's use.
It doesn't mean Windows can't run on your Mac, a third party solution called rEFIt will also bridge the gap and allow booting of more that just Windows, Linux as well for a triple booting computer.
Your hardware has to meet the other requirements the second and third operating system needs as as being able to install drivers that will work for your hardware, especially the fans or they will run loud and fast by default.
http://refit.sourceforge.net/
This above is a advanced procedure which requires knowledge how computers and various operating systems, drive formats and so forth work.
I even admit I don't know everything myself, but I experiment on a separate piece of Mac hardware (out of warranty/AppleCare) designed for this purpose so in case something screws up I'm not taking down my only machine and can use the other to get online and find solutions.
There is a very high potential for losing your data if your using advanced/non-Apple methods to install Windows on your only Mac where Apple doesn't support it. Also one shouldn't be doing this on Mac hardware that is under AppleCare or warranty as it might be voided. Proceed at your own risk and education.

Where can i get the macbook pro (2010) bootcamp drivers for windows 7?

I recently decided to install windows 7 ultimate (32-bit) on my macbook pro (2010 model). However my macbook did not come with installation disks, i know this for a fact and it came pre installed with 10.6. And when i try to download the windows support files through bootcamp assistant, it says that the download cannot continue. So where can i get these drivers from?

All MBP's with Snow Leopard (10.6) came with an installaton disc, and that is where the drivers are, if you don't have (or didn't get) the disc contact Apple for a replacement, there is no downloadable version of BC3

Hi,
Unfortunately any HP Software component (HP Toolbox, HP Scan, etc.) for this product support 32-bit envoirnment only.
As you may find by the User Guide, only basic Print and Scan drivers provided for 64-bit (Page 14):

Safari for Windows 7 - Where can I get a safe download?

I want to download Safari for my Windows 7 PC. I cannot find 5.1.7 on the Apple website. Is that the one that I should be looking for? If so, where can I get a download of it that won't include a bunch of garbage.
Or, if there is a version that I can download from Apple, which version should I choose?
A hyperlink would be greatly appreciated.

Safari for Windows was discontinued a couple years ago. By now it's outdated, not standards compliant, etc.. There's no reason why you should use it.

Where can I get Window's software for my Macbook Pro? I'm trying to run ARCview. However, it requires Windows. I'm trying Bootcamp. but, it isn't recognising the disk that I currently have.

Maybe because it's not a 'genuine' retail version? Many OEM versions just don't work - and I've no idea which flavor of Win7 your friend downloaded. Obviously one that Boot Camp doesn't recognize. Best to just pony up the cash for a full retail version, of some flavor - and use it. You COULD, of course, download the 14-day trial version of Parallels Desktop and see if you can install Win7 as a virtual machine... it might or might not work. Boot Camp just isn't finding the resources it needs on the copy you have - try Parallels and if that doesn't work just purchase a retail (or student discounted) version.
