Would like to reinstall windows 7 over windows 8 beta.
I currently have windows 8 preview and would like to re-install windows 7 ... I do not have the disks but I do have the iso files on the HD. Can I mount the iso to my drive and re-install win 7 or do I have to either burn to disk or usb...
Thanks
You need the bootable disk or USB flash stick for repair as well as reinstall.
If this is the Toshiba which came preinstalled with Windows 7 then follow these steps for getting a perfect Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 using the latest official installer with SP1 and Media Refresh (thousands of more drivers).
We always assume you have made your Recovery Disks using the OEM manufacturer's Recovery Media Creator app the first day you had your new PC.
& made the Startup Repair CD. startup repair disc-create
Did you make the OEM manufacturer's Recovery Disks?
Thanks... ... I will have to find larger disks this morning have nothing close to 4 gig... I do have a external HD (500 gig) that I store documents on.. may copy the iso files over there to save just in case I mess things up.... again thnaks
