Where do I get the ISO for the Windows 7 Universal Installation Disc?
Where do I get the ISO for the Windows 7 Universal Installation Disc?
Who said anything about Universal Installation DVD which is hugely unnecessary work?
I gave you the specific link for your ISO and tools to burn DVD or write to flash stick in Clean Reinstall Windows 7 Factory OEM.
There are other things to look at in my post above which might interest you, besides the steps which have helped thousands of others get a perfect Clean Reinstall Windows 7 Factory OEM.
I just found a Windows 7 Re-installation disc from one of my other computers. So i put that in and booted from it, just installed windows 7 just got to my desktop. Its SO much better.
Thanks for all of the help!
P.S.
So i just go in and delete the windows.old right?
Thanks again!
As long as it is the same version and has SP1 so you don't have to spend hours updating, it should activate at Control Panel>System.
You can delete windows.old once you're sure you have all of your data, email, email settings, etc. I wouldn't import any other settings than what you absolutely need to get your email or games working, as these are corruption paths into a clean reinstall.
I guess you didn't follow the steps I provided to get a perfect reinstall if you didn't boot the installer and got the windows.old folder as a result.
I am using my win 7 PC to reply right now. Again thank you everyone for all of your help!
How is performance? Any problems?
Another question how do i re install my Microsoft Word Starter?
I believe the app is only in the preinstalled Office trial bloatware that is in the factory image.
May I suggest that while you look for it you try Sun Micro's lightweight Open Office suite which is Office-compatible and doesn't require endless Updates. It's a breeze compared to Office, and no Ads which you get if you can find a way to reinstall Office Starter.
Yeah I was going to try Open Office, but I also might buy Microsoft Office 2010. Again thanks for all the help!
If you don't mind me butting in; if you're going to buy MS Office 2010 you might want to consider the student version.
If you or any of your family members are a student at an accredited learning centre, you can buy student software at greatly reduced prices.
