Windows 10 pro upgrade problems from windows 7 pro

touch pad is now inoperable, had to hook up external mouse to operate computer. needs to be tweeked out a little more i guess.

Hi Ok best thing to do using your machines Recovery program is reset the machine back to factory settings , Try and do at least one round of Windows updates and you should be pushed the Upgrade again . Try the upgrade again and see how things go BUT if you get a error message again during the upgrade you have 2 choices , Again reset the machine to Win 7 and wait for a couple of months for Windows 10 to bed in and bugs being sorted out OR you could try and do a clean install using the Windows 10 media creation tool ( link below ) you will need a recordable dvd or flash stick ( at least 4GB in size )to create the ISO. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 Checkurtech

Windows 8.1 Pro upgrade issue (from Windows 8 Pro) on Envy 23 TouchSmart All-In-One...

Hello,
I have an HP Envy 23 Touchsmart All-In-One that I purchased a year ago (around 12/2012). It came preinstalled with Windows 8.
System Information:
a) Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770S CPU @ 3.10 GHz
b) 8192 MB of RAM
A few weeks after I had bought the system, I upgraded to Windows 8 Pro with Media Center that I purchased through Microsoft's upgrade program.
Last week (10/19/2013), I saw the upgrade option to Windows 8.1 in the store and decided to upgrade.
After a few minutes, I got a prompt asking me to restart the computer and I did.
However, I noticed that the screen went blank, but it really didn't restart - I saw that the hard disk light was still blinking and I waited for around 15 minutes. I know it didn't restart because if it did I would have seen the HP logo on the BIOS screen. A little later, the system went into sleep mode (at least, the power button light was blinking slowly as if it was on sleep). Since it was late at night, I decided to leave the system alone and decided to check on it next morning. Next morning, it was still in sleep mode (as I feared) - when I tried to wake it up from sleep by moving the mouse/hitting the return key, it made the exact sounds as if it was waking up from sleep (as it always does), but the screen was still blank. The power button slight was glowing steadily indicating that it is awake now.
At this point, I decided to power down the system by holding the power button for a few seconds. Upon reboot, I saw the HP logo on the BIOS bootup screen and then the screen went blank and nothing came up.
So I decided to do a system recovery using my Windows 8 recovery CD and powered down the system with the CD in its slot. This time, the system came up and immediately started restoring my OS to a previous version.
Upon logging in to the recovered system, I got the following message:
"Couldn't update to Windows 8.1
Sorry, we couldn't complete the update to Windows 8.1. We've restored your previous version of Windows to this PC.
0xC1900101 - 0x40019".
I tried reinstalling Windows 8.1 a couple of times after this. Once by disabling all the non-Microsoft services and disabling all the startup programs. Still the same result.
I don't have any antivirus software on my system other the default Microsoft system protection software.
Any help, much appreciated.
Thanks.
This question was solved.

I've posted the following on the following Microsoft form.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_install/81-install-error-0xc1900...
Since my hardware is the subject of this HP thread, I thought it might be advantagous to others to post it here too.
In the hopes of preventing anyone else expending this amount of time:
HP Envy 23, no external devices except wireless keyboard&mouse
1) Attempted 8.1 from MSDN ISO download and dvd burn. Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
2) Attempted 8.1 from MSDN ISO download and dvd burn just because I didn't believe number 1. Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
3) Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
4) Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store just because I didn't believe number 3 Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
5) Read online that Task Manager, startup, disable all would work. Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
6) Read online that enabling security to admin group for Crypto directory. Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
7) Read online that ensuring drivers are all current. MS update, HP update, physically clicked on each driver, update in Device manager, Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
8) Read online that turning Firewall off, Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
9) Woke up this morning and evidently Win 8.0 decided on its own to Attempted 8.1 from Microsoft store Result: 0xc1900101-0x40019
Good news: Fall back to 8.0 has been flawless with the exception of the need to reenter the network key.
Bad news: Still on 8.0
Based on, in every case, the upgraded machine can be: Accessed via admin share c$ from a network device and can NOT be remoted into and the local display is 'illuminated' but not responsive and dark black (BSOD), my GUESS is a screen / display driver is failing on first boot to 8.1
I've reviewed everything on the C: drive with the extension "log" and a date close to the install date/time without success of isolating exactly what is failing.
Hope no one else expends this much time.

Are you saying you're running Windows in BootCamp or Windows as a Virtual Machine? You can increase the fan speed on the Mac using smcFanControl and use the software OGELTHORPE recommended to observe improvements.
smcFanControl is a Mac application and doesn't work in Windows, but if you set a higher minimum fan speed (which is how smcFanControl works) while running OS X, when you reboot into a BootCamp partition, that minimum speed tends to be carried over.

Windows 8.1 Update from Windows 8 Giving Error Message During Installation

I was instructed to use a generic Windows 8.1 key, and then change it to my Windows 8 key after installation. But, at either 94% or 96%, it gives me the following error during the installation:
Windows 8.1 Update has failed.
I have tried everything online and can't find anyway around it. In the meantime, all of my Windows Store apps are broken, and thus I can't update from the Windows Store. I have the correct ISO files from http://microsoft.com/ and I even have the option to
install Windows 8.1 from a program that was automatically added to the "Classic Start Menu" that was presumably placed by Windows automatically. No matter how I attempt to install it, it fails. I would really appreciate it if someone would help me
soon.
Thank you,
Ben

Hi,
I was instructed to use a generic Windows 8.1 key, and then change it to my Windows 8 key after installation.
What's the meaning of it?
Did you update from Windows 8 operating system from Window store?
Please locate to %WINDIR%\Panther, see if there is any clue in the setupact.log and setuperr.log.
Meanwhile, please refresh or reset your original Windows 8 system to ensure it's complete and correct.
Then retry to update to Windows 8.1 from Windows Store.

Windows 8 Pro Upgrade Problems (Switchable Graphics, Screen Brightness Adjustment, etc.)

Hi guys! I hope you can help me with this.
My laptop is a Lenovo U400 bought last April. I upgraded it yesterday to Windows 8 Pro.
The Upgrade Assistant detected incompatibilities on the following softwares (I'll be mentioning only those I had problems with after the update.)
-AMD Catalyst Install Manager
-Catalyst Control Center
-Lenovo Energy Management
-Cypress Trackpad
After the update, the following problems occurred
-Windows kept prompting me about the incompatibility of Catalyst Control Center and Lenovo Energy Management
-When I check the Device Manager -->Display Adapters, My AMD Radeon HD 6470M was changed to HD 7400M and has an exclamation point on it indicating a problem. When check Properties it says, "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"
-I can't manage switchable graphics because the AMD Radeon driver has been stopped by the OS and Catalyst Control Center doesn't work. It says, "Catalyst Control Center cannot be started. There are currently no settings that can be configured using Catalyst Control Center."
-My touchpad works but does not support multitouch functions.
-Screen brightness adjustment stopped working both on hotkeys and Power Options.
I tried the following actions to fix the problems:
-Downloaded the new softwares from Lenovo Support but the Catalyst Control Center and Cypress Trackpad still doesn't work. I also tried installing driver software from the AMD site but it still didn't work. [FAILED]
-I tried to use the Cypress Trackpad software for U300s/e and it fixed the problem with the touchpad [FIXED]
-Installed the Energy Management software for Windows 8 but when I click the 'Optimized Battery Health' button, it keeps reverting back to 'Maximum Battery Life'. [PARTIALLY FIXED]
-Resorted to 3rd party software to fix the Switchable Graphics (Catalyst 12.11 Beta from leshcatlabs.net) and it fixed the switchable graphics problem as well as the Catalyst Control Center problem. This is temporary until a working solution or update is available. [TEMPORARILY FIXED]
-All actions trying to fix the Screen brightness adjustment didn't work. [FAILED]
Please do help me on this. Thanks in advance!!!

Yes I own U400 too and I'm using it now. To many forums been read, can't remember which one. Basically, u have to clean AMD and Intel drivers that come along with Win 8. Why? Because the Win8 driver database will lead the device ID "DEV_6760" (if you looking at display adapter device properties) to HD 7400 series instead of HD 6470M, again why? At the bigining only the HD 7400 series already "certified" by Microsoft, while the 6470M out of somewhere. Current CCC (or else) + 6470 drivers, contain also driver for 7400 series in same packages (at least until now, hopefully near future they will release an update). So you can gues where the windows will lead to? Yes 7400 series (certified one). This will explain also why the Energy Management didn't work to= "missing identifier" or we can say "hardware not match".
You have to find a "fix" driver which contain only HD 6470M and install it manually trhu "Have Disk" option, after you claan all AMD and Intel driver. If you success, then install the CCC from Lenovo Support and from ATI ( I use 12.11 Beta8 Net4 CCC - this is a must), but remember to unchek the AMD Display driver when you install both CCC, and leave the rest checked including Intel Component. Then you can download install anything you want =).
Leschat's driver did't work on my and "harm" the system. Believe it or not, I found the AMD 6470M standalone driver on HP website. They call it "SoftPack", which actually contain CCC software.
It's quite tricky thing, that's why not everyone willing to try. But I think it's worth to try, as the risk is not too deep, just backup anything befor you do it. Cheer

Windows 7 Professional downgrade from Windows 8.1 Pro OEM

Hi,
I purchased new computers for a small business with Windows 8.1 Pro OEM licenses and disks. I was intending to install windows 7 Pro using downgrade rights but when I enter the product key that came with Windows 8.1 it gives me an error with "Invalid
Character".
How can I activate Windows 7 Pro using downgrade rights from Windows 8.1 Pro?
Thank you.
André Gomes

You cannot use a Windows 8.1 product key with a Windows 7 installation. You must "activate by phone" and hold on to speak with a Microsoft Activation
Specialist and explain your desire to invoke your downgrade rights to Windows 7. The Microsoft Activation Specialist will then review your request and if approved, will issue you an activation code for Windows 7.

Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

HOW DO I UNINSTALL WINDOWS 8.1 PREVIEW FROM MACBOOK PRO (SNOW LEOPARD)... CAN NOT FIND README FILE FOR WINDOWS PREVIEW. PLEASE HELP

how can i uninstall windows 8.1 preview from my macbook pro?? ive looked for over an hour for the readme file for the windows 8.1 preview and have had no luck. ive done almost everything i can think of at the moment and nothing is working. somebody please help, thanks

Windows 8.1 Preview cannot be uninstalled. However, if what you want is to remove Windows completely, start up in OS X, open Boot Camp Assistant (in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps to remove the Windows partition.
If what you want is to install the final Windows 8.1 version, read this Microsoft support article > http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/update-from-preview

Re: Satellite Pro L450D - Downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows XP

I have a Satellite Pro L450D which has Windows 7 on it. I want to change to Windows XP
When I try to install XP to Laptop I get this blue screen and will not let me go to the install process. Would I have to take out Hard Drive and format it on another computer or is there another solution?
I have no Windows XP recovery disk for Laptop. There is a windows 7 recovery on hidden directory.

Hi djxxx,
What blue screen you get exactly?
Generally speaking its not necessary to format the HDD first because this can be done from XP installation disk.
I assume it has something to do with the SATA option in BIOS You should change it from AHCI to Compatible.

Problem with "updating" Windows 7... from Windows 7.

Hello,
I just bought a new MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and I just installed BootCamp and Windows 7 Professional. The problem I have is that I bought an upgrade version of Windows 7, so I need to install Windows once without entering the product key, then, once Windows is installed, I need to install it again, from Windows, so that Windows thinks it really is an update and lets me enter my key and activate Windows (known as the "double install method"/"clean install from upgrade disc"). Everything worked well until I tried to install Windows for the second time. I got the "0x80070005" error, meaning that the install program couldn't write on the disk. This problem is known for users upgrading from Vista to Windows 7 and Apple has published a fix for this. I tried to install that fix, but since it is made for Windows Vista, it didn't work on Windows 7. So now, I'm stuck not being able to install the "update" of Windows 7.
Does anyone know a workaround for this issue?
Thank you very much!
Etienne

Thank you for your quick answer! I'm sure your solution would have worked, but I've finally found a quicker workaround with some very simple registry and command line manipulations. It's the method 2 described here.
Thank you!
