Windows 7 will be released soon on October 22, to be exact. Is the next big Microsoft operating system, I hope we the lackluster performance of Vista can bring. While many local Windows XP users to switch to Vista, it may need to consider trying to type in Windows 7. I thought this was an excellent opportunity for the introduction of Windows 7, starting with the installation wizard to write a series of tutorials. The second article focuses on security. The third article talking about customizing your desktop.
The instructions say Daz's Windows Loader can be "embedded" into the installation media. What does this mean and how can this embedding be accomplished?
Thank you very much for the guide. I am still using Windows XP. Old faithful. Use to it but soon and hopefully might upgrade to Windows 7.
Hello there, anyway can you include a little sub section in your guide to download the windows xp virtual pc or whatever it is called?
No device driver found please select your driver or something like that... A popup comes saying something like Browse, or cancel... I have googled this and apparently its a faulty win 7 iso, help would be appreciated.
hello sir. i am already familiar with the whole installation process of windows 7, my problem is, i can not seem to load the bootable iso file i have already created in my usb stick through unetbootin- my current os is linux mint 10 and i would like to stick with windows 7 from now on, each time i restart and wait for my device to boot, i only get a screen dat has a default option and a statement that says 'automatic boot in 10 seconds' of course it does count down to zero but it goes back up to 10 if i dont hit any key... im starting to get really frustrated as i have been at it for days now and still get the same result, ive already got ntfs partition formats in my hd but still to no avail, i have a feeling it can be because of the mint os but i just cant figure out what it is, hope you can help me on this one, would really really appreciate it. thanks sir.
Windows 7 will see Linux as free and open space. But if your goal is to move completely away from Mint, you will be better off wiping the hard drive completely before you start the Windows 7 installation; I prefer GPartEd for that. But first, backup all data you want to preserve. If you're installing from a USB stick, verify you have it selected as the first boot device in CMOS Setup. How did you install Mint 10? Maybe you can duplicate that process. If installing from a USB pen drive keeps failing, consider installation from a bootable DVD via a USB optical drive.
I have a question about the 200 MB partition that Windows 7 creates: is this unavoidable? My preinstalled OEM ver doesn't have such partition.
