How To Install Windows To An External Hard Drive Without A USB or DVD

I am trying to resurrect and old laptop. I bought 16GB of memory and a 500 GB SATA SSD. It has a working DVD drive. I also have a valid Win10 license key. I have access to other Windows PCs and...

The only external label that we have located has a bar code and "2MD1330HKQ" which comes up blank when I Google it.

Where else would the model and serial number be located ?

Got a link to that procedure ?

CPU : AMD Phnemom II X6 1100T

GPU : Radeon HD 6670

My friend is getting "reasonable". Now he is talking about a new machine that runs Win11 !

I am helping a friend who has FINALLY decide to upgrade to Win10 from Win7. He has a older (2007-2009) HP desktop. It was near the top of the line back. I currently do NOT have the model number or...

Walked away and came back over an hour later and it had completed !

Search works fine.

Rebooted. Back working hard !

Well, this (SearchFilterHost.exe) has been running for over 30 minutes and seems to be "stuck" ! (Quad core, dual thread Ryzen 3500U, 16GB memory and Samsung 970 Pro M.2 NVME SSD)

Come on. Give me some credit ! I know what "clean install" means and that is what I did. No device driver "alerts".

Resurrecting this thread.

I am relatively new to Win10, but long time user of Win7. About 3 months ago I bought a new laptop because I had a major hinge/case bottom failure. Even though this...

The old 80/20 rule is now 95/5. 95% of the Windows users only use 5% of its capabilities.

Why ? Because that is all they need !

SOB ! I tried it again just now and got different, but not perfect, results !

First, before shutting things down, I grabbed this snip from the printers web page. Note the MANUAL IP address !

Yes, yes, and how would I know that ?


This seems like a waste of time as I will never use my laptop WIRED to the printer !

I have a 1 month old laptop and this is my first Win10 machine (long time Win7 user). I have it connected wirelessly to a HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z. I downloaded and installed the latest version of...

I have personally experienced at least one case where an application crashed because there was no Free memory but at least 1GB of Standby memory. Admittedly this was on Windows 7.

Zero Free Memory means as soon as you try to start up a new application, something else will have to be swapped out.

If you could upgrade to 8GB you would see a significant improvement in...

I never said it will "fall apart". You will just not have a pleasant "computing" experience !

If the Disk Queue Length is consistently > 1.0, your computer is swapping. In simple English, it is struggling to stay alive. Like trying to swim with 50 lbs tied around your waist. Will it work,...

I would like the OP to run a little test (this is worthwhile for any not experienced Windows user).
