HP Recommended
Product: HP Star Wars and HP Pavillion g series
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My HP Pavillion g series was not working.  I switched the Hard Drive from my HP Star Wars computer in the older Pavillion g series.  The hard drive had Windows 10 and was working.  When I tried add more ram the machine was totaled.  The pavillion will not boot unless I use a thumb drive with Windows 10 repair on it.  I will not allow me to get the windows system working.  I used the serial number for Windows 7 from the back of the pavillion.   I also tried a windows free number found on the internet.  It will not allow me to repair or upgrade the windows 10 on this drive.  I can not get the pavillion to but up windows 10 without using the start up thumb drive.
