    Format laptop


    I have a lenovo thinkpad laptop. I switch it operating system from windows 8.1 to windows 10 64 bit and it doesn't work very good, it is slowed down a lot. I am trying to switch in windows 7 64 bit but when i insert the windows 7 64 bit cd in the cd place after making the boot proccess, accept thhe windows 7 install it appears on the screen Setup is starting and freeze, does nothing. When i boot it from the usb it doesn't boot it because the operating system doesn't appear on the screen. I need to know how to fix this problem. Is it a hardware or a softwre problem?


    TIA

    :)

    How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

    ¿You already tried this one?...

    Run CMD


    1. diskpart
    2. list disk

    Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

    2. select disk #
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

    good luck!
