• Backup Windows XP to create the complete image of the system?

  Original title: Windows Xp backup for the new update to reader.

  I want to get a new larger internal hard drive.  However the idea of trying to reinstall all my programs and settings have discouraged me it doing so. My Mac is great in that it allows me to back up my entire system with time machine on an external hard drive, and I can put it all right even if I accidentally erase my whole machine.

  Window xp Backup Wizard can do the same?

  Under the Backup Wizard tool, it seems to be a selection that says that "all information on this computer.  So once I have replaced my old internal drive with the new and improved, can simply paste in my external drive in the USB port and reinstall everything as it is?  is this possible?

  I realized with the technical stuff you just can't assume anything and that things go wrong or you need something more...

• System backup Image against the system recovery disks

  Hello

  I'm new to the system recovery things and I have a question...

  I just bought a new computer laptop m7-1015dx of Pavilion and need to do system recovery discs... (which I realize restore laptop to factory default)... BTW, I have already created the system repair disc.

  However, I read an article on creating a system backup Image allowing you to recovery if lost EVERYTHING, all your installed programs, etc.

  First Question:

  Can someone tell me if I do the backup IMAGE of the system...

  Do I still need to create recovery disk (mfg default) system also?

  The second Question:

  If I create system recovery disks can I still this Recovery Partition?

  I am really really wanting to partition my C:\ drive... it is huge

  In addition, I hate to see storage folders involved in system folders...

  Currently using a symbol/character to separate them.

  From now on, I can't partition the C:\drive all partitions are used as... Max is 4

  and I have 4... C:\drive, System Partition, Partition HPTools and recovery Partition.

  Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

  Thanks for the research.

  Best regards, Jenn

  Hi, Jenn:

  I'd certainly recovery disks because in the case of a hard drive failure, a recovery partition is unnecessary because it would be on the failed drive.

  Recovery disks will do the same as a recovery partition. Reinstall the operating system and programs supplied with your laptop.

  I have also copy off the coast of the C:\drive SWSetup folder and store it on a portable hard drive that contains all files Installer provided with your PC (except MS Office 2010 Starter).

  You can also make your own Windows 7 installation disc and have a nice bloatware without installing windows, and then install only the programs you want from the SWSetup folder.

  Here's how:

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  You can get rid of all the partitions you want to if you plan to use recovery or disc of Windows 7 installation method that I posted above.

  I write my product key and store them somewhere for more security that many people report that it fades if you keep the laptop on your lap a lot, and then you wouldn't be able to use the alternative method to install W7.

• Problem of recovering files after completing the reduced image of the system

  I wanted a quick and easy way to remove bloatware on my HP Pavilion dv6 laptop and I recently found the option to minimize the system image.  During execution of the task, I was given the option to first back all my files and I thought it was excellent.  After waiting 2 hours for her to create the backup, he created a 67.5 GB file on my backup drive and then proceeds to reduce to a minimum the system image.  While he was complete my phone restarted and went through all the steps of setting up for first use.  When everything was done, I plugged my backup disk and navigated to the folder of recovery of file titled "Backup_2011-10-28 125331.  In the file was a file "Recovery.exe" so I guess that I just had to run the file and everything would be restored.  However, he did create a file on the C: drive in the "System Recovery Files" which basically looks like a simple list of files.  The file that was done was only 12 GB, which makes no sense given that the backup folder initial took 67.5 GB on my backup drive.

  I assumed that this recovery file would simply perform a system recovery, restore all files created by the user where they were originally and basically to restore my system to how it was before reducing the image of the system, except of course for the fact that the image of the system would be less.  I was wrong to assume that or am I not successfully restore my system?  When enter windows and attempt to restore the backup created by some HP program that did it, the file is not even given as a possible source of save.  How can I get my computer to where it was before the restoration?  I had more than 100 GB of music, games and programs out there that are now lost and trying to remember what I lost everything will be very tedious, not to mention how long to actually get all the files.  Can someone help me with this? Thanks in advance!

  OK, what I learned hae is the backup created during the copy just for the recovery of all the files in the format of the image (management of stormwater in case you), the restore.exe was never to return to the original lcations since maybe it's different, so there just pictures of stormwater management to normal files and dumps then converts into a folder to restore you It is up to you to sort through them and put them in the appropriate places, stupid I agree, but that's the way it was designed.

  Back to your problem, I would like to rename this "System Recovery Files" System Recovery Files 2 folder, then try the recovery.exe once again, see if there is no option during recovery, make sure you select all files if given a chance, see if it produces more files than he did the first time.

  If this does not work there is a way to convert all the files management of stormwater to 1 wim file and then mount the wim file in explorer to copy the files you need from the image, it's very complicated process which I've never tried it myself.

• HP 15: cannot make an image of the system

  I have a laptop HP 15. At 8.1 Windows installed 10 Windows, everything works fine until I try to create a system image. When I click to start it says create Windows 7 system image then fails to 97%. Two questions why Windows 7 and why failing.

  Thanks for any help.

  I use imaging system Windows 10. Open Control Panel, under system & sercurity open backup and restore (this is where Windows 7 is mentioned for the first time), when it opens in the upper left corner you can create system images and a system repair disc. I've done both for Windows 8.1, I used this method with visited 7 & 8.1 without problems so far.

  I ran test on all players and all is good.

  Maybe I should explain why to use to create the system image in Windows. With HP Recovery, what is copied is disks and files to get Windows to start. With system image, that your hard drive internal all is copied, it is BONE, all drives, files, updates and any software that you have installed even saves bookmarks. If your internal hard drive fails, simply install your drive with the image of the system and you're ready to go back just like before. I used this method to get laptops in use in very short time.

  I solved the problem of a backup with Macrium Reflect disk to clone my internal hard drive. It's ok but the Windows image is much easier to use, that's why I love it and recommend it to friends to use it. You do not need to be an expert, just a couple of clicks and windows does the rest.

  Thanks for all the help and suggestions. I still want to resolve questions about the reasons Windows 7 instead of 8.1 and why keeps hanging.

• Try to burn a CD. The system will not recognize the blank disc or let me burn__

  Try to burn a CD. The system will not recognize the blank disc or let me burn... says there is no disc inserted

  Hello

  Have you tried to close all programs and then insert the disc? Restart the 1st and then try it.

  If no joy:

  Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
  the question.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  Hope these helps.

• IP address conflict? How to solve this problem. Message on the screen. go to the system event log window.

  Next message on the screen for IP address conflict. There are two addresses. How to solve this problem. Message to say go to the system event log window. I can't. Pl help.

  A common situation that can lead to a conflict of ip address, it's only 2 (or more) computers or other devices are connected to the router (via ethernet or wireless), and both have ip addresses assigned by the router automatically, one of the computers, then past in mode 'sleep', and while we sleep the router restarts.  When the router comes back online he doesn't know the computer sleeps is here and that he already has an assigned ip address and so it gives the ip address of the other computer.  When the computer asleep wakes duplicate error will be triggered.  It can be solved by turning off computers and turn it back on so that the router will assign them new ip addresses.  If this is not what is happening in your situation, the following may help: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Get-help-with-There-is-an-IP-address-conflict-message
