When I did, the message continues to appear & the computer is a compaq presario cq56. Could someone tell me what can I do to fix this?

Mrsbailey,

I'm sorry for what happened, I don't think you did anything just a crazy accident.

You'll need to order the factory created to disk for this computer. If you reside in the United States or to the Canada, you can contact HP technical support to the 1-800-474-6836 or if you reside in another country, you can click on this link and then click on your country and the number is provided.

If you have access to another computer, you can order them online.

1. click on this link

2. click on drivers and software

3. Insert the product number or model number

4. choose your current operating system

5 scroll down to "order recovery Media.

Because you have Windows 8 disk must be there unless the computer is so new that they were not placed on the site yet.

Please answer as soon as possible.

Thank you

  • I was wondering in the era of 3d everything that the operating system has not changed to 3d?

    I was wondering in the era of 3d everything that the operating system has not changed to 3d. like where the BONE is part of work like as if you where he is plunged into a game but the game was the operating system. As windows responding simcity.  so when you interact with something he grows or changes the subject. I'm tired of seeing a 2d world when I know that a 3d world is here. I want to say is that imagine an OS that was alive. like all those science fiction movies. I'm new to programming, but it's just one of my many ideas that I think could change the computer OS never imagine sitting on your couch with 3d glasses and feel like you where in a virtual world.

    One simple reason: convenience.

    The current problem with our 3D technology is that it would be broken by you are going to use the touch interface. Because, after all, it's just an illusion. Now let's talk about resources: do you really want your OS using towards the top of your ram, CPU and GPU to the point where you could not yet to start a game?

    Now think about 5 years computers upgraded... they would be even able to run this OS?

    What happens if there is more than one user per computer? What about people who get migraines of 3D? (shutter put on my glasses and my ability to perform simple tasks similarly is gone in 5 min with migraine resulting)

    Maybe this will be handy one day, we just aren't there yet. Do not give up the hope, however: at the moment where you get one such product coded, the tech world will already be a different place.

  • Made a big mistake in trying to get rid of the partitions on the coming Pro 8. Operating system does not load!

    Hello

    First time on this type of forum so I hope that what I write is logical.  So, here.  I have improved my coming 8 Pro for Windows 10 and after the update it told me that I needed to make space on the disk.  I looked and there is not a lot of programs that I have removed looked beyond and found that there are 2 partitions that had almost 6 shows assigned to them which were not used.  I tried to reclaim that space.  I made a copy of recovery on the micro SD and that seems to work very well.  Then I fiddled around until I could remove the 5 + GB partition and reassign it to the primary partition.  The second partition (about 750 MB) I was able to free up, but as it was before the main partition, I wasn't able to retrieve space in the primary partition.  I downloaded a utility recommended to try to move at the end of the main partition so that I could get it back like this.  Everything seemed to work but it stopped crashing and I got a blue screen of Windows saying that "the application or the operating system could not be loaded..." ».  I figured out how to get into the bios to see if I could change the boot sequence, I created a windows 10 bootable USB and after a lot of work finally got the tablet to boot from USB.  At this point, Windows 10 wanted to re - install (which I'm fine with) but the only problem is that the touch screen unresponsive!  I assume that the driver is not loaded on a USB boot.

    Now I am trampled.  I don't really know how to go further.  Is there a way to get the drivers to load from the USB?  Can I send my tablet in a magical place where qualified technicians will be re - build it for me?

    Any assistance or moral support would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Richard

    Would you go through the process, and when you need to use the touchscreen, join via the microUSB port and an adapter USB OTG, a wired keyboard (and mouse wired, if necessary, via a multiUSB adapter attached to the adapter USB OTG) and then complete the installation of this way?  At this point, you can download the required drivers from the Web page of the Dell product support and win your touch screen feature back.

    Hey, CGI,.

    Do you know if the unit is brand new, factory sealed, or if it is a unit used/given to nine? Since it was not purchased directly from HP, it is difficult to know what had been done to the unit before he did in your hands.

  • FixIt center operating system is not compatible Windows and update does not work due to 8007066

    I have an Asus Essentio with Windows 7 Professional. Although the computer was working ok, I installed the FIX It Professional [I bought it to install on my computer to girls] for the interview. Since then, I had several problems with slow MSN Mail and slow performance. I uninstalled the product and to restore the computer to the date of installation of the software. Here are some of the problems I have:

    When you try to run Microsoft difficulty It Center I get a message "the operating system is not compatible and must be XP or newer" which it obviously. I've used this program in the past without any problems and actually have a user account, but it still does not work.

    Trying to access Microsoft support told me that the software is not "enabled" even though it says it's under System properties, and the product number is not saved, even if it has been for more than 8 months.

    Whenever I click on the MSN butterfly, a security message wonder if Explorer is allowed to make changes to my computer. Not a big deal, but remember why nobody liked Vista and I would like to get rid of him.

    A Windows Update does not work due the 8007066f, who doesn't have a solution, but updated logo keeps interrupting my work.

    Thanks for any help.

    I suggest an Inplace upgrade to fix your computer.

    The upgrade in place is a tool to fix the system. Thanks to the special upgrade process, we will be able to repair the system. The upgrade in place will not affect the settings like photos, movies, documents, etc. that are saved on the computer. Although this operation will not remove or modify the files and installed programs, I suggest always that you back up important files before you do. In addition, you may need to reinstall the device drivers after this operation.

    The detailed steps are included as below:

    On-site upgrade
    ====================
    1 log on to the system first.
    2. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in the DVD drive of the computer.
    3. Click Start and select computer.
    4. find the "setup.exe" file in the DVD-ROM and double-click it.
     
    5. click on install now.

    6. When you are prompted to enter the product key, please click Next directly without entering any key. The installation wizard will prompt and ask if you confirm to install Windows 7 without the key and choose please confirm.

    7. When you get to the screen ' which type of installation you want', click upgrade to upgrade the Windows 7 system files.
     
    Note: When running the upgrade on the spot, the system will restart automatically (several times) to merge the files and programs, please leave the computer alone and does not configure it until the 'upgrade on the spot"finished. The system should start Windows 7, once it is upgraded. Once the computer is running "upgrade on the spot", you can go and leave the computer and it completes automatically.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • My computer has been infected recently with Sirefef (AB and W variants). How will I know if I do a backup/clean install of the operating system or not?

    As says the question: my computer has been infected recently with Sirefef (AB and W variants).  How will I know if I do a backup/clean install of the operating system or not?

    I'm running a full system scan in ESM right now, and it has detected multiple instances of sirefef.   I have remove as they pop up, but I'm afraid that when I run another scan they all will always be there.  Is there a way to know if MSE is actually remove them and he cleaning?  If not, should I do a back up and reinstall the OS?

    Thank you.  I can choose to try this, however, I would like an answer to my other questions first.

    Sirefef is a rootkit and yes he can hide in your system.  This is why it has been suggested that you may need to reformat/reinstall.  In fact, it's the only way to eliminate malware.  Multiple scans with several scanners and no conclusion malware probably indicate he disappeared, but the key word is "probably".  Malwarebytes is good and what he finds now may be traces of the infection, but what he finds perhaps not active more - it is always good to run the scans so.

    What spare drive did you run?  What scanners did you use?  See again you and follow the guide "Malwaretips"?

    For the firewall problem, you can try the following Microsoft Fixit.

    Diagnose and automatically fix problems of Windows Firewall service

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_firewall_diagnostic/en-us

    One of the users of the Forum answers maintains that a great guide on information security is important for understanding the removal of malicious software.  See the following compliments of Brian M - for suggestions on how to solve your problem: http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/malware-removal-guide/#after see: after the removal process and solve the problems of Post disinfection

    Uninstall/reinstall of MSE is how?  All the problems?  Have you tested MSE with eicar to be sure it's working?

    Assume that you have not had an opportunity to review the MSE Installation Checklist or you would have noted that MSE and Windows Defender cannot be used on the same computer.  So if WD works in fact it means MSE has been disabled/not not work correctly or not installed.

    See the next WD re: Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials

    Good luck...
