How to install windows on a new hard drive

[ThatGuyTheAtheist]

Great Tutorial! Gonna help me with installing on my new computer on my birthday :)

[mnash3]

Thanks again for the tutorial. You made it look easy. Good job.....

[mnash3]

Nice video. My assumption is that u used another computer 2 format the new hard drive 1st & then I think u mentioned it on another comment that u booted from the OS cd. My first thought is the price of a hard drive & then the OS usually leads to the price is so high that it might just be better to purchase a new computer. At the same time, if the hard drive+OS was cheap enough, it might be ok if everything else works. This might help me give away 3 computers that I have laying around the house.

ok ill be paient :(

@oshhi0 OSX is a Operating System by Apple, not Windows..

[Suzakusstar]

"Yaaay~" xD



[hello1234514]

Once you're done installing the os, and the drivers, how do you get the system to run in 64 bit mode instead of 32 bit mode?

[oshhi0]

@hello1234514 you have to but a copy of 32 or 64 bit its on the disk

[nicolewise10]

I install the new hardrive in my HP Pavilion a260x computer, then the screen is black with a white line in the bottom when i press power. When i pop in the WINDOWS 7 CD it didn't do nothing.

I need help ;-(

[oshhi0]

@nicolewise10 you have to boot from the cd . look up how to do it

[NICKHINTON78111]

[oshhi0]

@NICKHINTON78111 no there is no crack on my tv and i have a rebel t3i

[MrCesarVideo1]

is a asx cd the same as a normal windows 7 instalation cd ?

[oshhi0]

@MrCesarVideo1 i don't know what a asx cd is can you please inform me

[Swailem95]

your intro is pretty cool :D

[oshhi0]

@Swailem95 thanks like the vid :)

[easyway2001]

Do you have to have a computer to install windows?

[oshhi0]

@easyway2001 what else could you install it on

[njg2011]

@oshhi0 unfortunately his pC is running XP :) I already have a sata to usb adaptor from when I updated the hard drive in my MBP :) I think I'll buy a OME version of win7 and take out his hard drive, format it using another PC, and proceed with the process as portrayed in your video :) thank you for your help and advice :)

[njg2011]

@oshhi0 appreciate your reply :) I partly want to install windows to start the computer on a blank canvass, so to speak, and I partly want the job of buying a hard drive and fitting it :) it may be the extreme solution but. I don't think he wants to buy the various components to take the computer back to its former glory.... its rarely turned on any more haha lol :)

[oshhi0]

@njg2011 well you could always format your hard drive (Delete everything on it and start from scratch) You can only do this with windows 7 and vista because the format is built in . To do this you will need to restart your computer and during boot up press Alt F4 at the same time . ALOT of people don't know about this because its kinda a secret . This will guide you through the steps to formatting your computer back to factory settings .You will not need any disks and it will work like new :)

[njg2011]

@oshhi0 excellent tutorial :) my older brother has a desktop and its performance is awful due to no anti-virus software and general misuse :) can I simply insert a new hard drive and install windows and expect it to function as normal, or do I need to install various drivers for his computers wireless keyboard and mouse during the install? any info much appreciated :)

[oshhi0]

@njg2011 there could be many answers to this question . you should figure out the specs of the computer because it may just be the parts you have to upgrade . such as a ram or processor . However regarding your question . you will have to remove the old hard drive and then install the new one the drivers will install automatically :) i hope i helped .

[elpapidelflow09]

Omm I Have A Mobile Harddrive And I Try To Intak Windows 7 64Bits And It Says That It Can't Be Instal There Cuxzz Is Via USB Port And I Don't Support Intall Windows Byy There!

[oshhi0]

@elpapidelflow09 yu cant install windows an a external (moble) hard drive . That is alot for a usb port to handle .

[airwolf100]

Installing windows on 2TB H.D.D and NOT recommend an SSD (as a system drive) only if its over 500GB -------------> lol

[Lorenzo763]

do u recommend a ssd?

[oshhi0]

@Lorenzo763 I would recommend a ssd (solid state drive) . only if it is a 500 gb or more . if it is anything lower than 500 gb then i would recommend it for storing small things on it or running a small sever off of it , exc. :) i hoped i answered your question and don't forget to like the video and subscribe for more videos .

[boarderofsnow23]

@oshhi0 a 500GB ssd would cost like 700 dollars. use the ssd as a boot drive and install your heavily used programs on it and get a hdd for storage

[oshhi0]

@SeanWebsterHD where is your tutorial ??

[MacRezzi]

what if you dont have another copy of win7 but bought a new hdd would you habe to buy another win7?

[oshhi0]

@MacRezzi im not too sure what you mean can you re word that ??

[poQkie]

@oshhi0 He means, if you buy a new HDD or a replace the HDD that you installed your operating system on, would you have to buy another copy of Windows 7.

[oshhi0]

@poQkie in that case yes then

[oshhi0]

@MacRezzi if both drives are in at the same time then only one will need a operating system if you just want to replace the hard drive with a new one then you will need to install a new copy of windows/osx.

i hope this answered your question and don't forget to like and subscribe !

[Pazer92]

Thanks man

also nice music lol ;)

[xXkiddlouieXx]

would this work with a laptop if i buy a new hard drive?

[oshhi0]

@TasteTheDiabetes well if you have no drives connected except the external one then you should have no problem

[oshhi0]

@TasteTheDiabetes they are costly however there are other ways to get a copy of windows ................ (if you know what im saying) And yes it is that easy just follow the video and you should be up and running in no time !

[oshhi0]

@cstritz i dident think of that thanks !

[cstritz]

@oshhi0 No problem. I really like the video, you did a great job with quality, steady camera, and fast fwding through downtime. What type of connection did you use to hook up to the tv? HDMI?

[N1ghts1te]

What if it cant find the hard drive? thats where im stuck at

[oshhi0]

@N1ghts1te your hard drive should be rectangular and a have a sata cable coming out of it sorta like the disk drive
