Yes, the Windows 7 DVD's let you boot up the DVD's menu for repairing or installing Windows when inserted into a external or internal DVD drive.

If your PC doesn't boot the DVD automatically you will have to push the boot device button at start-up(Default F12) or enter BIOS(default DEL or F2) to change the Boot device priority or enable to boot device button.

The first window you get when booted the DVD is a welcome screen with Windows 7 logo and language settings.

The next window will allow you to install Windows 7 or go into the repair menu.

The repair menu:

  • Startup Repair.
  • System Restore.
  • System Image Recovery.
  • Windows Memory Diagnostic.
  • Command Prompt.

How do you install Windows 7 x64 after installing Windows 7 x86?

Assuming that your computer support x64, just get a 64-bit installation disc from your manufaturer and install it. (Alternatively, you can download the ISO for it online and install it to a few DVDs or a flash drive)


You are trying to format your friends computer but the version of windows you are trying to install on their computer is older then the one they were using so how can you delete the old windows?

All you need is the newer operating system disk. Just put in the OS disc and hit which ever button it tells you to during start up to get to the boot menu. You should choose the option to boot from disc. It will ask you if you want to delete the selected partition. And yes you do want to. After it is deleted, restart the PC. Insert the old OS disc and take the same steps to the boot menu, select boot from disc and it will lead you to the install screen.


You installed windows 7 then vista and now you get disk read error occurred?

This happened to me once. If you install Windows 7 and then Vista, you get disk read error occurred because the windows 7 and vista boot files are different, so the computer cannot boot because both files are present. (Windows 7 and Windows Vista's boot files)The only way to get around this problem is this:1. Start the computer and then press F11, F2, Esc or another key (in your computer's manual) to get into the BIOS. Then go to a tab called Boot or Boot Order and change the 1st position to CD-ROM drive, then HDD.2. Insert your Windows installation disk or system repair disc (downloadable from the internet) and choose Install now for the install disc or click System Recovery for system repair then choose Clean install (install disc) or select a restore point and follow the instructions on-screen.If you choose the Clean Install button it will wipe all data from the hard drive, so be carefulHope this helps

Just got a new computer and would like to install Windows 95 on it how do you do it from Windows XP?

Windows 95 cannot be installed from inside a newer version of Windows. You must boot from a disc to install it. Windows 95 isn't compatible with newer computers anyway, and virtually all software that will run on Windows 95 will run on XP, so its a wasted effort.


If you have windows 95 and are trying to upgrade to windows xp but the upgrade won't work what is the problem?

you cannot upgrade from win95 directly to xp without a fresh install, if you have purchased an upgrade disc, you need windows 98 or newer. If you have purchased a regular install disc, back up your important files, and boot from the install disc, you do this by setting the BIOS (in "setup", before the O.S. starts to load)
