    ·        Did you do a clean install of Windows Vista without formatting?

    ·        How many letters pilot are there on the system, for example C:\, D:\?

    ·        The number of records your C:\ drive?

    Open C:\ drive and select all the files that are present and check what size is (of all files). Let us know the size.

  • Upgrade SSD and allowing the UEFI again after you install Windows 8

    Hi, having a problem w / install Windows 8 on 128 GB SSD using boot inherited (to easily boot from CD/DVD) and then return to UEFI boot sequence. Model is Dell Inspiron 17r SE. I'm absolutely not an expert on the terminology and technology, so I hope that I am using the correct terms. I removed the 1 TB disk that was originally shipped w / to settle more easily. I am able to install correctly to win 8 to the new disk (using a disc Dell win 8). After I reboot and try to come back back in the UEFI, I get a reboot constant return to the menu of the BIOS/legacy/Windows, UEFI, parameters, Diagnostic Boot Manager. Windows 8 will start only if Legacy option or boot first hard drive is selected. I DO NOT have the msata SSD, so my problem is not in the driver problem intel matrix (or whatever it's called).

    I looked at the PDF of installation of windows 8 in the wiki and forums and basically tells you to put the computer in legacy mode and install Windows 8, it does not say you can return to the UEFI boot. The only thing I do not according to who download drivers SATA on USB/add iso and loading them to install. That would be the question? I wouldn't guess.

    I have also tried to hit SHIFT + F10 to install and enter Diskpart, select disk 0, Clean, convert the GPT and exit and then the installation. No change. Am I supposed to completely install Windows 8, go back to install the drive, do the SHIFT + F10 sequence and then install then it would convert my GPT disk? I would assume install Win 8 would like to ask if you had UEFI and law/format accordingly.

    Questions or comments, please let me know. I would like this mode to get started more quickly. It's fast now through the bios boot, but I wish it were through the UEFI.

    When you use the legacy mode to install Windows 8, your setup application assumes that you want to format the SSD as a MBR disk.  That's why your system keeps jumping from UEFI.  Try to remove your current partitions (the disk must be empty to start), change your mode UEFI system configuration option and using the F12 boot menu a time.  Your computer must have an option on this menu to start your DVD/CD drive UEFI mode.  When you reach this point, remember to select the option to format the drive as a GPT disk.  UEFI mode can manage data the MBR and GPT disks, but if you want to start to UEFI, I'm sure the system drive must be a GPT formatted the player so that there the UEFI boot blocks.

  • After you install Windows XP service pack 2 on my computer the disc cd player no longer works. In addition, my printer will not work.

    • After that I put a disc in the drive it will reopen its doors.
    • I get no response when I try to print, as many ways as I can think, I used.

    If you go to the computer mftr's site. and looking for drivers for your specific model computer, they will be good. If there is a choice (as it often is with Dell machines for example), if you happen to download the wrong driver he just would not install or wouldn't work. No grand. But given that your computer is running, open the Device Manager and write the names/models of your hardware first. Then you'll know if you have an Intel card or a wireless Dell (for example). If the update of drivers will solve your problems I can't say because obviously I can't see and test your computer for myself. But it should not damage the computer. If you're worried, take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place) and have them tested and secure it.

  • Windows 7 ask for a password, but there is no password area

    My laptop Windows 7 Starter was once an admin password, until I removed it. Now, every time I try to make everything about the admin it gives me the pop-up box and asks for the admin password, but it is not a place where I can type in it, let alone is not a password.

    I'm the only person who uses the laptop. I can access my account very well.

    I think that it could be antivirus software on the laptop, but I can not remove it without the admin password.

    Help, please.

    Hi Chacko,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you receive the prompt to enter the password and does not not the password field. I'll be happy to answer your query. Let me ask you;

    • Are you referring to sing-in or password while accessing a particular program, page, window, setting?

    Since you had deleted the password, there could be several other reasons, including viruses as well as for this cause. From now on, I would suggest trying the following steps and check.

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode and check if you either get the password field or not at all.

    Please refer to: , start your computer in safe mode

    Step 2: If things are going very well, put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

    Step 3: Run Microsoft Safety Scanner

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Microsoft safety scanner

    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • It does not start after you install windows 7 on an SSD without going into the bios and clicking on the reader.

    Will change the bios fix it?  If yes how?

    CharlesR salvation,

    This concern is usually caused by an incorrect configuration of the BIOS of your device settings. If you have recently installed Windows 7, then most likely the boot priority is always set to the optical drive or USB (depending on which you have used in the installation of Windows 7).

    The BIOS settings are dependent on the manufacturer of your device, this is why we invite you to contact the manufacturer of your device for assistance by changing its settings.

    Kind regards
