Try formatting the hard disk first before using. I guess the old partitions are a stumbling block to your installation. Please note you will lose all files on the hard disk. To format your hard disk while running windows 7 set up follow theses steps. To install Windows 7 using the Custom option and formatting the hard disk To format your hard disk during Windows 7 installation, you'll need to start, or boot, your computer using the Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive. Follow the first steps the users above have given you. On the Please read the license terms page, if you accept the license terms, click I accept the license terms, and then click Next. On the Which type of installation do you want? page, click Custom. On the Where do you want to install Windows? page, click Drive options (advanced). Click the partition that you want to change, click the formatting option you want to perform, and then follow the instructions. When you've finished formatting, click Next. Follow the instructions to finish installing Windows 7, which include naming your computer and setting up an initial user account. |

Guys, we urgently need your help. We are deciding between and iPad and 10" Galaxy 2. Because we need the sim version as well, we were not sure whether these tabs need to be unlocked, like phones. It's not easy getting unlocked versions and we are not sure whether the standard versions with SIM will work in Nigeria with a simple sim switch. IPad is an easy switch but not sure of the andriod tabs. Anyone with an experience with buying and using the "locked" andrioid tabs in Nigeria. Need to know ASAP. Thanks. |

Lakkay: Guys, we urgently need your help.The bold part is not true, ipad;s are the hardest to unlock, Samsung Tab's can be easily unlocked. Bottom-line!! both can be locked and unlocked so the choice should be which platform you want, an iOS or Android |

Windows Update error 80072efd If you receive Windows Update error 80072efd while checking for updates, the cause might be a high number of update requests on the Windows Update servers. Close Windows Update, wait 10 to 15 minutes, and then run Windows Update again. You can also wait for Windows Update to run at its next scheduled time. If you continue to receive this error, it might mean that a program running on your computer is preventing Windows Update Services (SVCHOST) from accessing the Internet. Programs that might do this include firewalls, anti- spyware software, web accelerators, Internet security or antivirus programs, and proxy servers. To correct the problem, you might need to add the Windows Update website addresses to the blocking program's exceptions or "allow" list or allow Windows Update Service to connect to the Internet through port 80 and port 443. To add the Windows Update websites to a firewall exceptions list Windows Firewall ships with this version of Windows and should already include these sites in the exceptions list. If you use a different firewall, refer to the software publisher's documentation to see how to add these websites to your firewall exceptions list: http://*.update.microsoft.com https://*.update.microsoft.com http://download.windowsupdate.com If you continue to see this error, see this automatic troubleshooter on the Microsoft Support website, or go to the Microsoft Answers website for more assistance.
