January 14, 2013
I have a new laptop a DELL 15z 5523 / Win 8, it's utterly useless, has no card games, no standard microsoft applications like windows 7 or Vista,
I purchased Windows 7 and want to either remove Win8 or use two operating systems, but I have no luck finding the local C hard drive when trying to install windows 7, I partitioned the hard drive and formatted it via Windows 8 Disk management , I'd like
to (keep the Win 8 as a fall back OS) and when trying to install Win 7 the software does not see the C drive.
Thank you.

How to remove Windows 7 From a Dual Boot with Windows 8?

How do you safely remove Windows 7 Pro (32-bit) from a dual boot with Windows 8 Pro (64-bit)? I'm quite happy with Windows 8 Pro (since I've got Start8 to give me the Start button, menus, and booting directly into the desktop).
The scenario:
Both are on the same hard drive (an SSD).
Windows 7 was on the hard drive initially. I added Windows 8 on a new partition and am ready to completely abandon Windows 7.
I have not been able to find information on how to safely remove the Windows 7 partition.
The advice I've come upon online suggests:
(1) Reformat the Windows 7 partition or delete the Windows 7 partition.
(2) Expand the Windows 8 partition to occupy the entire drive.
(3) Remove the Windows 7 choice from by going into System Co

How to make Windows 7 x64 use ALL your Memory!
location:
7forums.com - date:
July 8, 2009
Okay, so recently I had a problem with Windows 7 x64 only using 5Gb out of my 6Gb or RAM. I figured it out, and I'll show you what to do if you're having problems.
The first screenshot is what it looked like initially. How to fix:
1) Go to start menu and search for "msconfig" and hit enter.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
2) Go to the "Boot" tab and click on "Advanced Options".
3) Another menu should pop up. From there, you want to uncheck the box that says "Maximum memory"
4) It will ask you to restart your system. Restart it, and when it boots back up, it will use all your memory. Look at the attachments for more help!

Using Windows 7, how do I run CHKDSK?
location:
microsoft.com - date:
February 27, 2011
I've searched throughout the Control Panel and it's submenus and options but can find no means to initiate a scan for disk errors!
I did find chkdsk.exe in the Windows\System32 folder but when I double click it, the only response is a flash of the DOS {black, command prompt} screen! Is that the correct response?!
Is there no way to run [schedule] a scan disk [for errors] as there has been in earlier versions of Windows?!
