Windows 7 question . Empty Windows 7 question .

Post by Guest Thu 29 Aug 2013, 20:14

Hi! I have a question. Does anyone know how to install windows 7? Can someone help me step by step to install the windows? I have Windows 8, and it made ​​me often small "problem", that not all the programs that I use initially run on Windows 8. The persone who installed every time for me  a windows is now out of town. Wed honestly makes me want to throw my laptop out the window every time a program is not supported on Windows 8. In time, I learned to "clean" a computer , to make distributions of memory, etc. etc.. I would love to learn how to install windows. I also want, if possible, explain to me how can I save, for example, all data from local disk D before deleting and reinstalling the other windows. 

Please , I want someone experimantated who can explain me , becouse I don't want to make a complete mess :-)) . Hope you understand what I'm saying and sry for my very bad language . x.x

Hello,

Games4TheWorld has Windows 7 too (click on the link in my signature saying "G4TW torrent downloads"). While I don't install new operaing systems very often (luckily), what most people do is to download a OS, then burn it to a disc (DVD), insert it and start the installation after re-booting. My Windows 7 is not from G4TW, but I think the instructions will look similar.

You can back up your data on an external hard-drive; or even a USB drive, depending on how much you want to back up. At least that's what I recommend. Wink

Hello,

When I installed another OS, I didn't have to watch out for "special things", meaning: the new OS basically "overwrote" the old one. With no problems. But if you feel uncomfortable with that, you may indeed wait for someone else to help you with that.

The Windows 7 that I downloaded had a folder included with some drivers, but you can download drivers from the internet too.

You have 80 GB ? If you don't have/can't get hold of an external hard-drive, I would recommend you only back up the most important things: software/game downloads (so that you don't have to re-download them later), documents, save files of games and similar things.
