I am having Hp pavilion laptop with windows 7. Actually I am demanding to attach toward my home server operation WHS on it as of my Windows 7 home premium laptop. I get in touch with HP I purchase the server as of them and go from side to side all the troubleshooting solution they had however by means of no fortune. When I sprint the connector software it be familiar with the server, but, at what time I come in the code word it says that it doesn't distinguish it. I checkered the code word on my desktop which dash a Windows XP and it workings very well. I checked the code word hint at what time installing it on the PC and it gives me the correct hint. Tech support at HP believe it has somewhat to perform with the security location on my Windows 7 machine. Can an important person help me? I desire to upgrade my desktop on the way to windows 7 professional, excluding I'll certainly keep away from doing as a result if I can't join to my server.

hello, I have an old laptop with Windows Home Server repurpose. And the requirements are hardware, the installation works without problems, but the operating system detects any hardware e.g. the network card and that of course makes it difficult. I've heard that the use Microsoft laptop not recommended by WHS. I just do not understand why? It is a Fujitsu LifeBook S7010. Actually I have posted this query as I have seen that the above post is also having the problem which is related to the windows home server so I thought it is the right place to put this query here.

Microsoft recommends that you use on notebooks, since many problems there. Moreover, it is difficult these devices have enough disk space to install, can be worked as external storage devices only. When the installation has worked so far then you must now go to the Device Manager. There are devices that have not yet installed are listed. For these devices you have now, and then look for drivers on the Internet. However, you should always make sure that you get Windows Server driver 2003, as the WHS is placed on Win2003. XP drivers may need to work, but another possible source of error also represent.
