Unable to Install Windows 7 in HP 15-BE012TU Laptop

[Asbidyarthy]

I am unable to install windows 7 in HP 15-BE012TU Laptop (bios). 

It give this error: "A required CD / DVD drive device is missing. If you  have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please inser it now."

What I am doing: 

1. Installing windows 7 using USB

2. Tried in all three USB, did not work. Same error message

3. Lagacy Support - Enabled, and Secure Boot - Disabled

4. Can not find option: USB3.0 configuration in Pre-OS under System Configuration tab is setup menu (f10). 

Please help.

Hi,

To install from pendrive you are going to need to create windows 7 drive with usb 3.0 drivers on the drive. Intel has a tool to create such a drive from windows 7

Very simple solution is there

the problem is win7 doesnt have usb 3.0/3.1 drivers. but it do have dvd drive's driver

install windows win 10 first ( or you can remove your hard drive and do below stuff with a sata to usb cable )  

if you dont want to create partion create a device driver dvd

Create a partion t end of the drive that mean it should be at your end of ssd/hdd

copy all drivers to that - because you wont have usb ports and internet connectivity ( you have to install drivers )

now create a windows 7 DVD disk not usb

install using it dont delete partion eariler you have created 

after installing windows 7 you wont have any usb ports or internet connectivity install drivers from 

earlier created partion or created dvd - then all devices including usb ports will be working

thats all

but i things when using the win 7 laptttop gets heat . and battery remaing time also gets reduicng

so i have rolled back to win 10

if you want you can try
