Alright, so HP decided Windows 7 ultimate should be on a netbook with a 1.8 ghz dual core and 2gb of ram.
Obviously it shouldn't, so I installed Ubuntu on it. Now the netbook has some kind of protection on it, so it blocks all operating system installers, so I pulled the drive and installed Ubuntu on another computer. The install finished perfectly fine, but I didn't let it finalize (Boot in and get the system settings of the comp, I just let it copy the files and unpack them).
I attempted to put the drive back into the netbook and let it finalize the install, but then the netbook gives me some bullshit saying that it can't find the unlocker or something? I'm not even sure, it never gave me the message after that.
Now it's telling me that there is no hard drive in the netbook. Can anyone help me out here? I'm not sure what magic trick to pull on this damn thing. I'm about to toss the entire netbook because it's so useless.

Actually the support section would be a better place. I'll repost there.
I see no problem with Windows 7 running on those specs, with a fresh install. (No OEM bloatware)
I've got windows 7 on a dual core 1.6GHz. I don't see what the issue is
The Issue isn't Windows 7 itself, it's all the bloatware HP just [B]LOVES[/B] to shovel onto their computers.
Get ahold of a clean OEM or retail Windows 7 ultimate disk that works with your cd-key.
