Z60m clean instal win xp

hello to all ibm lenovo funs...
my problem is that i was given a used lenovo z60m
i deleted the first partition of the hard drive without of making a recovery disk.
i was thought to do a clean installation of windows xp and add my own programs.
ok this is it....
C0000221 error, disk error,
blah blah.. i searched microsoft...
nothing. 1-0
i tried to install vista... 2-0... problems win.
anyone... just tell me something to do??????????

Just curious , did you get the problem sorted?
If not , try installing XP with cpu not overclocked.
Then overclock it back to 3ghz when XP all installed, and see if it runs stable, if strange things start happening then underclock it or increase voltages on ram..
Just a thought

How do I wipe Win 8.1 64 from a SSD to clean install Win 7 64?

My HHD crashed on my Pavilion m6. Laptop was out of warranty, so I decided to go with a SSD. I only had a copy of Win 8 to install, so I could use my laptop while waiting for a copy of Win 7 Home Premium OEM from Amazon.
Within that week I had the new SSD installed with Win 8. The system wanted to update to 8.1, which I did. My intent was to ultimatly uninstall Win 8.1 from the new SSD and install Win 7 which the laptop originaly was designed for. My problem is I now have the copy of Win 7 and when I install it doesn't seem to connect to the network during installation so I get no drivers automaticly installed. I have tried the installation connected by LAN and Wirelessly with the same results, no network drivers installed.
I reinstalled Win 8 again with no problems so I don't think it is a faulty network adapter in my laptop. Now I am out the money I spent on the OEM copy of Win 7 because my system only wants to install properly on Win 8.1. Any suggestions?

Install process never asks to install drivers. Now when I reinstall Windows 8 it's almost like everythig is still installed. Even the wallpaper. I have deleted all the partitions when trying to reinstall Win 7 but it's like remnants of the Win 8 install still remain.

Clean Install WIn 7 from Lenovo_Recovery

Hi!
I have a Lenovo T420 with Windows 7 64 (purchased 2011).
Since Hard drive is very slow and full of junk, I would like to re-install windows on my C partition.
My question is (and I would like to see any of your recommended workflows please):
1) Since my concern is that some of the viruses/malwares effected also the Q: Lenovo_Recovery Rescue Partition, is it a good idea to erase a compete hard drive, including the Lenovo_Recovery and make a clean installation of windows? Note that I don't have any DVD with windows (it's all on Q?
2) what is the best way to perform a complete/deep cleaning of a hard drive (format c: in DOS? details please?)
3) Is there a place where I can find all necessary drivers in one place for T420? (since I will eventually erase a complete HD, inlcuding Q partition)
4) once I put a clean installation of windows and put all drivers up, what then? Is it good idea to create of image of that state for the future? How to do that, which software to use?
5) I, actually woudl like to create again (once I have a new Win 7 and all drivers/tools) the partition Q: Lenovo_Recovery, as is it now. Does any of Lenovo tools alow that?
Many thanks
Cheers

Hi hinkt,
It appears that Z has you on the right track. Some types of malware can infect recovery partition, but I'd try using the recovery partition followed by a security scan as he suggested. In most cases that is enough. One thing I would add is that after recovery of a system from 2011, you will be left with obsolete versions of Java and Adobe Flash. Be sure to update those so you are not vulnerable to infection. After you run Malwarebytes, you might also run an online scan with ESET. If both give you a clean bill of health, you're probably good to go. However, if you still feel as if something isn't right, then call for the recovery media.

Yoga 2 Pro BIOS UI corrupted after clean install Win 8.1 Pro

Hi all.
First of all sorry for my bad English.
And here is my problem:
I just bought a new laptop "Yoga 2 Pro". Because I have a legal copy of Windows 8.1 Pro I decided to reinstall the system. Before re installing BIOS UI looked normal but after re installation of the operating system BIOS UI looks strange and can not use it. You can see it on the attached photos. I tried to reinstall the system a few times but immediately after installation BIOS UI looked like in the pictures. Interesting that after removing system from SSD, BIOS UI is starting to look normal and is fully functional. I even tried different versions of the operating system because I thought that the cause lies with the ISO file. The effect has always been the same.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this problem?
I will be grateful for any suggestions.

I did try removig the Lenovo energy management software, but that didn't work. I also then reinstalled and tried setting it to Performance mode. However, I didn't look for a Windows power mgmt solution.
What's weird is that after I powered down and used the Novo button to check the BIOS version (just to confirm what I said earlier), when I restarted Windows again I did not see the Hyper-V error message. I haven't restarted again, but will check again tomorrow morning when Windows starts again.

Satellite Pro P100 (PSPA4E) - No Sound Following Win 7 Clean Install

Hello, A European friend really struggling and looking for help.
I have just clean installed Win 7 Home Premium (64 bit) on a Satellite Pro P100 (PSPA4E) which was purchased in November 2006. It was previously running XP and I never installed Vista though the laptop is badged Vista Capable) I followed the Win 7 bios/driver/software install order but I now have no sound at all. Everything that I have tried so far has failed to fix it.
The laptop has a Conexant based audio solution with harman kardon speakers. Win 7 has installed the following driver which reports the following info.
High Definition Audio Device (Microsoft Driver version 6.1.7601.17514 dated 11/19/2010) and Device status: This device cannot start. (Code 10)
Hardware IDs:
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31&REV_1000 HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31
There is a second exclamation mark in Device Manager for a further unknown device / uninstalled driver (showing code 28) for a device with a Hardware ID of ACPI\SMCB000 but I do not know what this device is!
Does anyone have any suggestions on a fix for my sound issue?
Thanks!
Martyn

Any one have any thoughts on this issue?
I have failed to locate a working / compatible Windows 7 x64 driver for Conexant HD Audio!
Perhaps there isn't one?
Perhaps I need to try harder?!?
Perhaps the on board sound solution featuring Conexant HD Audio is simply ****** as on www.conexant.com they say manufacturers have TOLD them NOT to make drivers available (... to poor unfortunate users)!!!
I think that manufacturers need to step up to the plate and support / help their customers. I own 4 Satellite Pro laptops running Vista x32 and Windows 7 x64. This one cost me well over £1,200 so I don't want to hear or conclude that it is simply scrap! That would represent truly poor value for money - the kind of business case that would undermine my belief that Toshiba laptops are the best in the business.
Ditto Microsoft - the Windows 7 x64 Upgrade Advisor tool gave me the all clear to upgrade this system. All generally appears fine EXCEPT the lack of sound.
Having now been exposed to the experience of many other laptop owners set out in various forums etc, covering both Toshiba laptops and some other major brands, I have to conclude that the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor is flawed and that a successful upgrade is somewhat hit and miss affair. Beware!
That said, still hopeful that someone out there will be able to help me fix this issue?

A22m and A21m will not install/recognize internal Ethernet card after WIN XP clean install

Hello,
I have few of A22m's and A21m and a few weeks back I did clean install WIN XP SP2. All is good with the exception of Ethernet card - which is not recognized after the installation. Previously those systems were running XP SP1 and there were no issues with the Ethernet card.
I have tried all possible driver downloads from Lenovo/IBM support site including Intel and 3com and still nothing. Supposedly the Ethernet drivers are native to win XP, but for some reason I can't get them to work.
I want to donate these units to charity, but I want to make sure all works fine.
Thanks in advance,
Andrzej

Welcome to the forum!
Please post the 7-character model number(s) of your A2x ThinkPads (should be something like 262x-xxx), so we can determine the type of mini-PCI card installed.
Also, after downloading the drivers, have you unpacked them from the appropriate directory, should be something like C>Drivers>Win>Ethernet.
Good luck and let us know.

Qosmio F60 Win 7 clean install plus drivers

Hi
I would like to clean install win 7 64 bit on my F60. I've already worked out how to change my boot sequence, [ with the help of this forum], so I'm ready to format & reinstall. However my concerns relate to reinstalling drivers specific for the F60.... Any advice on this process would be appreciated. Is it a matter of just downloading from [http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/notebooks/qosmio/f60/pqf65a-00y002/download?os=25] & installing as I need. Can this be tricky?
Any thoughts & guidance appreciated
Regards Lantana
Also would like to update bios...is there a step by step process for that too?

I have a Qosmio F60 & have done a clean install. I'll run you through the steps.
1. Make recovery disks before doing anything else. It's a good backup should there be any problems & will allow you to return the laptop to "out of the box " state if you want. Once the Recovery disks have been made (about 3 or 4 DVD'S), you can delete the recovery partition, but if you're unsure I would leave it as is.
2. There is a folder containing all your drivers and programs on the C drive. Back it up to DVD or a USB drive.
3. Back up your activation information. I used Token Restore (Google it). Back up your data.
4. Install WIN7, use the advanced option, reformat your C drive. Make sure you install the same Win7 version that came with your laptop (ie Home Premium, Pro ect). Don't enter your activation details at this time, but use Token Restore to do this after installing your drivers. After you install Win7, you'll have basic functionality, ie your mouse touchpad will work, cd drive will work ect. Display will be at a lower resolution.
5. Install drivers & utilities. I installed the following in this order.
Intel chipset driver
Intel turbo boost driver
Intel management engine interface
Intel rapid storage driver
NVIDIA display driver
Realtek audio driver
NVIDIA HD audio driver
Dolby Control Centre
HDMI Control Manager
Realtek LAN driver
Realtech Wireless LAN driver
Bluetooth Monitor
Toshiba Value added package (custom install... I didn't install Zooming Utility)
Ricoh card reader
Synaptics Touch Pad driver
Winbond CIR driver
Yuan DVB Tuner driver
Toshiba Eco Utility (optional)
Toshiba HDD Protection
Toshiba Disc Creator (optional if you have other CD/DVD burning software)
Toshiba DVD Player (optional, it upscales DVD's, but not much improvement over WMP for playing DVD'S)
Toshiba Remote Control Manager
WinDVD BD (for playing blu-ray) & the update downloaded from Toshiba website.
6. Install your own software, antivirus, data, restore your activation information then run Windows Update. Also worth running a good defrag program like MyDefrag or Puran Defrag (both free).
I would install the recently released BIOS update prior all this.
It is possible to trim the installation back even further, but I find this gives me full functionality while removing most of the bloat. I do find this better than simply uninstalling unwanted programs, as some like Norton AntiVirus are almost impossible to fully uninstall.
Hope this helps.

Clean install is a MUST on an SDD

I just clean installed Win 7-64 on my new Crucial C300 256GB SDD. What a HUGE difference between the clean install and my previous cloned install. Win 7 aligns the SDD and crams a LOT more data into the sdd. Also, the SDD is faster with the clean install.

I know nothing about perfect Disk but I do not trust any claims that it is OK to defrag an SDD with any of the presently available software. I carefully researched Diskeeper and I could find no credible support for Diskeepers unsubstantiated but over-hyped claim that it is OK to defrag SDDs with Diskeeper.
To the contrary, Crucial tech support told me flat out: "Do NOT defrag our SDDs with any software." On an SDD which has no moving heads or disks, defragging just writes onto the solid state storage space and in doing so uses up some of the SDD's finite life.

Can't upgrade or clean install new Blackberry Link in Win 8 32 bit system

Hi Helpers,
I cant install the New BB Link version on my system - (the previous version ran perfectly).
Whether I try to update or clean install (old version now uninstalled). I get a pane saying that Microsoft visual C ++ 2008 Sp1 redistributable - W8 needs to be installed first.
The process starts that install - but alwayys fails. After that the BB Link install just closes.
I can't seem to attach any screenshots (be helpful to be able to 'navigate' to them rather than type in a path). But I havepasted below the full txt contained in the 'windows installer' pane that appears when the install fails.
Can anyone suggest any way to correct this problem please? Btw, the new BB Link installs perfectly onto Windows 7.
Thanks in anticipation. (On trying to post, I was informed that some invalid HTML has been removed - presumably that was in the 'paste' but I've no idea what it was or whether it affects anything, sorry).

How I do a clean install of Win 8.1

Since my initial post "Why is option to create striped volume grayed out in disk management?"
I have seen numerous threads re doing a clean install of Win 8.1. So I'm re-posting the info I got from Puget Systems http://www.pugetsystems.com/ when I RMA'ed the ZenBook back to The Egg and got a laptop that boots in 1.7 seconds and works.
Edit !That was time before any progs installed. Now that I everything on it's about 20 from hit restart to waiting on me enter P/W.
Regardless of your system the advice I got from PS before the system was even built here in the US should apply as I ordered it W/O an OS.
D/L Drivers from the systems Mfg. site. If it's a DIY Lego then from the Mfg. of products, i.e. chipset, video card, audio, etc.
When Windows begins install;
Choose Custom Install.
Uncheck Let Windows load drivers.
Uncheck any other options you don't want as well. I unchecked about everything and yet*
When OS is installed
Go into add/remove features and enable .NET Framework 3.5.
Restart Then load Drivers. As mentioned in other post I had already drivers Dl'd from Puget's site
and had in separate folder on flash drive.
This is by far the cleanest, best running Windows version I ever had on a system and have been installing since Win 95 A.
Hope this helps some of those who are having Clean Install issues.
* When I started IE 11 my Favorites were already there. ???? I had them Exported but not to Flash Drive yet. Does M/S have link to NSA?
Happy Clean Install to all!

Unable to boot Win 7 after cleaning factory installed Win 8.1_shuts down at preparing desktop

I had factory installed Win 8.1 on my HP P 206TX laptop but I wanted to install some software which does not support any OS above Win 7, so I wanted to remove this.
I did the following process:-
1. Created Win 8.1 recovery media(DVD) for future usage.
2. BIOS setting:-
a. Secure boot - Disabled
b. Legacy boot - Enabled
3. Cleaned hard disk through DISKPART
4. Converted GPT to MBR
5. Installed Win 7 Ultimate 64bit (DVD).......almost done till preparing desktop....
Then just during preparing desktop, system logged off, shut down and restarted....
But the restart does not boot windows at all.
It only shows "press ESC for startup menu" and then restarts again with the same process repeating again & again.
I have tried Repair through Win 7 DVD but it shows "this version of system recovery options is not compatible with the version of windows".
Please help as I am unable to find any solution anywhere on the internet.
I hope HP can help me...PLEASE

Hi
According to your machines support pages on HP website, Windows 7 drivers are not available for your machine this is more than likely the issue you are having . If you want to run software through Windows 8.1 that is not compatible for Windows 8.1 you can always run a Virtual box and install Windows 7 to Virtual box and run software via there..
Google search Virtual box --- download and install then install your ISO image of Windows 7 and go from there..

Help Lenovo Y50-70 Win 8.1 clean install

I'm new to Lenovo, Win 8 and to this forum. I'm considering buying Lenovo Y50-70 Notebook model 59441814 - Intel Core i7 4270HQ, 8GB DDR3L, 256GB SSD, NVIDIA GTX 860M 4GB, 15.6" Touchscreen, 4K UHD, USB 3.0, no DVD drive and Win 8.1 pre-installed. I also have retail MS Win 8.1 Pro "Full Version" 64 bit DVD and key. Would like to upon receipt of latptop to: (1) replace 256GB SSD with a Crucial MX200 500GB SATA 6Gb/s 2.5" SSD, and (2) do a complete clean install using my retail 8.1. Reasons are: increased capacity and get rid of all the unnecessary stuff that Lenovo pre-installs. Since I don't have a DVD drive and I have read there are some issues with boot secure, can someone provide recommendation on sequence of steps to follow. and /or how to.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi Forest1,
Welcome to the Forums.
When you receive the Y50-70, can you try these steps:
1. Follow this video disassembly guide on how to replace the HDD with an SSD. Alternatively, you can also watch this youtube video on how to replace the drive.
2. If you're planning to install Windows 8.1 Pro in UEFI mode, follow this guide on how to convert the DVD installer into a USB installer. When finished, boot into the BIOS and set the following settings then hit F10 to save and exit.
- Link to picture
Secure Boot = Disabled
USB Boot = Enabled
OS Optimized Defaults = Other OS
When finished, boot from the USB flashdrive that you created (by tapping F12 and selecting the flashdrive on the boot manager) and you should be able to install Windows 8.1 Pro on the SSD.

Need to do a clean install of Win 7 on my HP Dv7 1464rw. Purchased it with Vista on it and it was up

Need to do a clean install of Win 7 on my Dv7 1464rw. I purchased this computer with Vista on it and HP sent me the upgrade for Win 7 as part of the purchase. Can I reuse these discs or do I need some other disc to do this? Also, Do I need to wipe the hard drive clean or will the install process do that?

Do you have the license key with the Windows 7 upgrade disk? If so you should be able to use it to format and reinstall.

Thinkpad Yoga - Clean install with Win 8.1 disc and embedded product key

Hello everyone,
I purchased a Thinkpad Yoga that comes along with Win 8.1 and embedded product key.
Will it be possible to plug-in an external drive and install Win 8.1 from a Win 8.1-disc? BUT I don’t want to use the key that comes with the disc, but the key embedded in the bios.
This is my girlfriends Windows 8.1 disc and license. Nevertheless I could use it for the clean install.
But I'm not sure, if the original key from my Yoga will work then.
Thanks
Hutson

I guy on Youtube made a rough tutorial.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lI8AnNBIlLQ
Englisch subtitles available
In the comments he suggests, to download the Iso with anouther win-8.1-key - no matter which one - and to install the system clean. In his opinion the system will get the key from the hardware. He is writing, that there is just a universal iso. So it's no problem to download an iso with another key, even if your system is a Home-Edition and you download it with a Pro-Key.
I will try this.
