    I know how you feel, I never get extended warranties on anything, if something dies after the normal one, so be it

    Yea I guess being a noob I wanted extra protection to make me feel safe for the investment which was pretty big for me. But I have been studying alot about the ins and outs and have learned so much a lot more confident than I used to be not to mention the genius help I get from the guru's here!

    Ok so I have all the files I need to install the correct win 7 64bit os and all the drivers I need but one problem I dont know in what order that all these zip file that I have need to be installed and further more I dont know how to create the right kind of bootable disk for the files I have the free power iso but dont think i know what is the right scenario to set the files up in. No thanks to lenovo they have just left me high and dry. But any way any suggestions would be great. I would show who ever is interested to help the files I have down loaded but I don't think I am supposed to put that kind of info on here any way I would be more than willing to email my info or set up a remote connection whatever I can possibly do to get my system back to the way it should be. The files I have include a win7 vista 64 bit and I have never heard of that but whatever Plus I have a disk already made of win 7 64bit sp1 and it will install and start the setup but then says it cant find the drivers to set up I don't know how to set them up to be read by the setup and I am at a loss right now!

    Hi there ... Forget about Drivers for now .. Your main goal is to get Windows Installed .. If you are getting a message that Drivers are needed during Install .. This could be due to a bad Installer try to burn at a slower speed where did you Download Windows from ? You could also use a Flash Drive ...

    Well the win7 64 I have on the disk has worked in the past but as we speak I'm DL another 64 on pwr iso.. I got the other one from a torrent as well as the one I'm burning now. But how can I forget about the drivers for now the ones on my system are from a stupid error that Lenovo sent me the wrong recovery disk and changed my system to 32bit when it originally came preloaded w/ 64 bit. How when I install the new win 7 64 am I to get the new drivers I have downloaded that are still in zip form and I have no idea what order to put them in plus each file has extra files for each driver that I'm not sure are supposed to go on to what ever I create to load them? Basicly I don't know how to arrange that.... Thanks for the reply so let me know why to do the setup and then how am I supposed to get the drivers installed then please...

    OK I have done a clean install and am now at the Win 7 home premium 64 bit desktop. So now what do I do to get the drivers installed I know the ones I have are supposed to be the most up to date and I don't have internet connection detected. So I'm a little nervous but I'm sure there is a way to get the internet going I just am not sure how I only know how to type in the key for the router so what now? and thank you so much by the way!
