So a friend of mine has a Lenovo X140e laptop and it came with an SSD of 128GB. He wanted a larger 512GB and bought one. Gave it to me and I cloned the drive using AOMEI. Everything went fine and completed, but when I installed the 512GB drive it will not boot. The Lenovo screen appears then goes to a black screen with a blinking cursor in the upper left cornet and that's all it does.

I have pulled the hard drive out and am...

HP Notebook 15-ay009dx refusing to boot from Windows 7 install media
So, for starters, I'll give a slight description of the situation I'm going thru right now.

Up to date (Oct 2018) guide to fresh Windows 7 install?
I am ready to do a fresh Windows 7 install on my older Dell laptop (I'm assuming I can do this from the repair screens using F8 at reboot). I've found a few older threads that specify a sequence of steps, but they are a few years old and wonder if there is an update to the process to speed up all the updates...
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
As a tech neophyte idiot who is quite literally becoming a lunatic over error messages that prevent every attempt to install apps in .msi formats. I've done all I know, from CMD com admin rearm (hit my limit of 5 long ago), "/ unregister" and System Restore back to before this issue developed - all for naught :cry:
