Need help in installing vista home premium

manianprasanna · 16-09-2007, 01:58 PM

Hi,

I have HP Pavilion dv6000 series laptop. It came with preinstalled windows vista home premium. I like to reinstall. So i just formated the whole harddrive. Before that i created a recovery DVD with the help of the HP recovery manager. When i try to restore the vista home premium, with the help of my revovery dics, it says some error like This recovery disc cannot be used. Any ways to recover my windows vista home premium edition.

manianprasanna · 16-09-2007, 02:03 PM

restore wont re-install ur os ... if u install vista and then run the restore then it will be of any help ... havnt tried it though but i dont think recovery will be of ne help in this case

entrana · 16-09-2007, 02:15 PM

hmm this is wrong, we pay for the os and they should at least give a cd so we can restore it later all they give is a serial key...

... u need to extract it more often than not

Get an original Vista disc from some friend or anyone and install it with your key.I think this should work.

iMav · 16-09-2007, 06:03 PM
