    Windows 10 Pro installation on a new WD Hard Disc


    Hi!


    I cannot install Windows 10 Pro on my new Western Digital Hard Disk because it asks for a "device driver" ; I searched it on my Win.10 setup memory stick at Drivers but none of them worked,where can I find the required device driver in order to install my Win.10Pro on my ACER laptop???

    The other problem I have on the other laptop is that the icons on the Desktop/laptop screen do not work on I click on them and the right click does not work when I want to delete or move an icon from the desktop; I think there must be something wrong with my Explorer but I do not know how to solve this problem.

    Thanks.


    Dan

  2. Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.

    Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    Where exactly did you get this "windows pro" key from? If it's off eBay or something, then perhaps you've been sold a dud key. Also, it's not clear if you mean you bought windows 10 pro or an earlier version of windows as there's no such thing as "windows pro".

    Do you have an Windows 7 or 8.1? If so, install that, download the ISO with the media creation tool and burn it to disc. Then run it as an upgrade. After that, the components hash of your PC will give you a digital entitlement for a clean install, so just bought off that disc, wipe the partitions and install it clean. It will auto activate over the internet once installed.

    Windows 10 Pro installation on a new WD Hard Disc

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
