Upgrading to Win 8,7 from Vista or XP and Drivers Updates
Win 8,7,Vista,XP and Drivers Updates
Today there are many people trying out new operating systems on their machines by doing DIY - kind of installations because of availability of installation setups and free knowledge on youtube. Some people even try down-grading from a higher OS to a lower one like those who have Win.8 taking it back to Win.7.
Many laptops and some PCs made today and since the advent of Win.7, 8 and now Win.10 have a number of specifications that are different from the generation of Win. Vista and XP in the areas of device driver availability.
Most of the new laptops today are either running on Win.8 or Win.10 today. This is making it increasingly difficult to find device drivers if someone switches from Win.8 or 10 to say Win.XP/Win 7/Vista or if one is up-grading from say Win.XP to mainly Win.7/8/10.
Sometimes you can be lucky and find compatible drivers using common driver pack solutions or ready-made drivers on manufacturers sites.
However for many old-laptops its prudent that one leaves the current operating system intact or simply does a check for availability of device drivers before venturing into up-grading/downgrading their OS.
The easiest way to check for device drivers is by running an automatic search on the laptop/PC manufacturer's website by punching in the device model name into one of the common search engines to return a list of suppliers of device drivers.
The other one is to search manually for the drivers on the available search engines like google, yahoo, bing etc.
NOTE:
Always check the device's OS version whether its 32bit or 64bit type. Go to My Computer icon, right click and select properties.
Then also for specific drivers downloaded from sites different from the manufacturer always specify the device i.e. modem, bluetooth, ethernet, touchpad, audio, Graphics, Chipset, USB, etc
During downloading, the internet connection must be superb because if the link fails before the file is fully downloaded, the installation won't work perfectly.
Installation is done the normal way. Open the downloaded file, run it and follow instructions and you are good to go.

Duplex Printing
Different Printers Offer different options for duplex printing.
The most important thing is to note the direction of placement of paper incase of manual duplexing.
Some older-generation printers only offer print odd/even pages which have to be turned manually.
While some latest printers will offer duplex printing but you will have to set your work properly on each page just like in the picture below: -

Changing GPT to NTFS on New OS.
Super User is a question and answer site for computer enthusiasts and power users. It's 100% free, no registration required.
I want to install Windows 7 on a brand new machine that is currently running windows 8.
The drive is divided into 6 partitions: one for the OS, three reserved for OEM, one for MRS and one as primary.
The error message says Windows cannot be installed on GPT partitions. Windows must be installed on an NTFS formatted partition.
Please can anyone help me achieve the desired NTFS partitions?

First of all GPT and NTFS are two different items.
A disk on a modern desktop is usually partitioned in either MBR or GPT.
Those partitions are then formatted with a filesystem, such as FAT, ext2, NTFS, ...
You can install windows 7 by either:
If you boot with a old fashioned BIOS and try to install windows on a GPT partitioned disk then you will get an error. This is probably what is happening in your case. (An assumption since you did not specify the precise error you get).
You solve that, either wipe the old disk and then reinstall, or change your motherboard to the right boot mode. (Some, not all, support both EUFI and BIOS modes).
To wipe the disk: Boot the windows DVD, press SHIFT and F10 to get a command prompt and use diskpart with the clean option. If you have multiple harddisks then make sure you select the correct one.
| ||||
Use any Windows 7 or 8 startup disk. When you're asked what hard drive to install to, press Shift+F10 and a Command Prompt window will appear.
Enter the following commands:
(Where # is the number you saw in the previous step.)
(The size is in MB, so enter the amount that you want to use for your system partition.)
Close the Command Prompt, refresh the installer window and it should show the new partition layout. Select the partition you created to install Windows 7 or 8, and click Next.
WARNING: COMPLETE HARD DISK WILL BE CONVERTED AND ALL DATA WILL BE LOST.

GPT is a modern partition table. Contrary NTFS is a filesystem, which is different from a partition table. Windows 7 needs the old MSDOS partition table and a partition formated with the NTFS filesystem.
As you already have several partitions on the drive you need to reformat the whole drive and use the MSDOS partition table. The disadvantage is that MSDOS partition tables only support 4 primary partitions, one of those can be made into an extended partition that supports more logical partitions, but not every OS is able to boot from such a logical partition.
There is no way I know of to convert a drive on the fly from one table to another. Back up your data and try it out. Or as an alternative buy a second drive, you can then use MSDOS partition tables on it and keep the GPT on the other one.
