Do you have more than one hard disk? If you don't you won't have to unplug those. Unplug the other stuff.

 

[Mikkoz]

Yes, but after i did the factoey reset using F8 on boot, in My Computer it has connected them into one.

 

[koolkat77]

Not sure what you mean. You mean you have more than one hard disk?

 

[Mikkoz]

Yes but on My Computer it says i only have one (C . Before i did a factoey reset it had C: and D:

 

[koolkat77]

Did you take a back up of your stuff before doing that?

 

[Mikkoz]

I made recovery CD

 

[koolkat77]

Good. Are you able to do the repair install now?

 

[NoelDP]

If you only have one physical hard drive, you don't need to - note that you may have up to 4 partitions (drive letters) on one physical drive.
Doin g a repair install should not affect your warranty - but you may want to check with the manufacturer first.

 

[Mikkoz]

Do I make the repair install with my recovery CD?

 

[koolkat77]

Did you download the ISO from this link http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219487-clean-reinstall-factory-oem-windows-7-a.html

 

[Mikkoz]

No, I'm in school with my phone.

 

[koolkat77]

Okay, update the thread when you're ready.

Alright, I'm back home. I seem to have another problem. (and no I haven't done repair install yet) When I try to update a Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2660649) It fails to install it with the error code 80073712.
Also my PC (which I am using right now) also has the same problem, but it cannot install almost ANY updates. Can you help me with this? Also I will try to do the repair install now. (Do I need to unplug anything or not)

 

[koolkat77]

Create a new thread in this Windows Updates & Activation - Windows 7 Forums section for the other computer.

For your laptop, repair install would be a better way to eliminate the issues as already stated by Noel.

 

[Mikkoz]

Alright, thanks. So do I need to unplug any wires or something? Before I do the repair

 

[koolkat77]

Externally yes, not internally. lol

 

[Mikkoz]

So you mean I unplug mouses, A/C power source and stuff like that?

 

[koolkat77]

Yes, mouse etc. Go with the USB method

 

[Mikkoz]

Sure. I have downloaded 1GB/3.1GB of the ISO now.

Another question about the reinstall. In step 3 it says "Back up your files externally by dragging your named User account or active User folders to another HD, external drive, flash stick or disk."
Does that mean I copy the folder C:\Users\Mikko (my username) to a usb stick or something like that?
