Aspire 5100 restore options?

I have an Aspire 5100 aging with its D drive that contains a full restoration required once only 2 DVD, but he now has 7. As I've never had the need to use both methods, I'm looking for other means of external restoration to save the use of DVDs.

An external hard drive can be used, if the restore folder images D are exactly copied to the external hard drive? I realize the boot BIOS should be reset if not use Alt F10 or DVD but the boot will pick up the necessary files in the same way?

My OS is XP Media Center Edition, and I've heard of problems with XP restores so would like to know if others have used with success readers ext, and if so do they need to work with some files restore Acer?

I believe that the files are self-contained, so it shouldn't require an entire partition to himself.

  • Failed to read the serial number or of SNIDS on label Aspire 5100.

    Hello

    I use the search function but did not find a question quite like this - little surprising?

    A family member gave me a laptop Aspire 5100 that no power, fear of the system board.  Not seem to receive a wave of newer computers with bad cards system.  The label on the back of the laptop with the number of series & NSID is faded & I can't do all the numbers.

    Since I will very probably be pulling apart anyway is everywhere, maybe inside, where the serial number or the SNID could be printed?

    The manual lists this laptop to use ATI Radeon® Xpress 1100 or Xpress1200 chipset - I can't tell the difference between the two.  All system boards for sale seem to only list Xpress 1100 chipset that will probably work but a little clarification on Xpress 1100 vs 1200 would be nice.

    Thank you

    Can try it analyzes, you'd be surprised to know that can capture even a little expensive HP scanner/printer.

  • Acer Aspire 5100 Windows 8.1 problems (64-bit)

    Hello Acer users,.

    my mother has an Acer Aspire 5100 and is happy with it so far. I installed an SSD hard drive and Windows 64-bit from 8.1 to it (fresh). Now, she is very happy that the machine is very fast. Allthough there are new problems that accompanies the installation and I'm not happy with them. They are as follows (all drivers related questions I guess, no driver in Windows update or on Acer site):

    1 - memory card reader does not work and does not appear in the Explorer. Device manager shows 3 x peripheral problem which are the memory card reader. Which brand is?

    2 - WIFI does not work (says network adapter), have not yet tried to download and install the drivers from the website of Atheros, will try this next time I visit him. Poster 1 x peripheral problem device manager which I guess is the WIFI because the machine can access internet through wired adapter.

    3 - display is fixed (cannot be changed) at a resolution of 1024 x 768 and it can do better, but can not be changed. Downloaded and installed Catalys control center, but this has changed a lot and I do not see anywhere to change the resolution from there. Only several screens etc.

    4 - adapter displays in the Device Manager to 200M and it should be Ati Radeon Xpress 1100?

    But other than these problems, Windows 64-bit of 8.1 works great and especially with the SSD is very fast. And can recommend to you all =)

    Well, if you can help me on this issue. I guess that Acer can not make drivers before they get the manufacturers driver.

  • I have the product code on the back of my Acer Aspire 5100 but I lost the CD to reinstall Vista.

    I had problems with my laptop and it wiped off, but then I couldn't find the installation disc. Can I download Vista Online and use the product key on my laptop?

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
    Acer is Alt + F10

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    You can also make recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • ActiveSync let me backup once, then no more backup/restore option

    Hello!

    I use ActiveSync 4.5 and WinXP S3, but it is also on the SP2. I have a HTC P3300 with Windows Mobile 6.

    The first time I plugged on the desktop computer, he offered to perform a backup and created a. STG file. The thing is, after that it is synchronized with the default options, which included crushing 0 Outlook 2007 contacts in my contacts 1700 in the HTC. I try now to get back them with the STG file but whenever I connect my HTC on the desktop, the option "Backup/restore" disappears on the menu 'options', which is kind of weird because if I disconnect the device I see the option (grayed out, however).

    Any ideas would be very appreciated :(

    Thank you in advance,

  • Power and system restore options will not start

    Hello

    Yesterday I used system restore to restore my computer from a restore point when I had problems burning files to disk. The restoration seems to go smoothly. However, now I can't access power from the taskbar options (I use a laptop) or the control panel. When I click the icon, nothing happens. So, I tried to open the system to always restore in mind to find a different restore point. However, when I right click on "Computer" in the start menu and click on 'Properties', the same thing happens: nothing. It's the same, click "Recovery" in the control panel.
    Therefore, I entered "rstrui.exe" from the command prompt and finally got to come system restore window. However, there are an error message that says:
    "System restore is not seem to work correctly on this system." An element of Volume Shadow Copy Service has encountered an unexpected error. Check the log of events applications for more information. (0 x 80042302)
    So I typed "Services.msc" in the start menu and clicked on it, but yet again, nothing happens.
    Right now I'm running a scan with Malwarebytes malware, after which I intend to try to do a restore of the system in safe mode, but I fear that it won't work because I already tried to start safe mode power options and it did not work (that was before I realized the system restore was not functional).
    Can someone please? Thank you.

    Edit: both pis. I was able to fix the problem with sfc/scannow from an elevated command prompt. There were files corrupt system that have been properly repaired. Now the system restore works, but it is no longer necessary.

  • "Custom" Restore option is no longer in R &amp; R?

    Pending my last thinkpad to deliver, I read a post on NBR , which claimed that the "custom" option restore is therefore more in Rescue and Recovery for new thinkpads with partitions Q and S.

    Now that I got my new thinkpad I see that indeed the "custom" option no longer exists. I see a full factory restore is possible, as well as all trial crapware [soft], whole Thinkvantage suite of utilities, etc.

    Someone please tell me I'm wrong. Is it really not possible to do a "custom" factory restore more? Combined with the disappearance of the system of updating I won't buy liked products Lenovo as these 2 utilities have been TREMENDOUS gains in time for me, and one part huge reason why I recommended it Lenovo to others.

    It is true, I'm sorry to say see post of bloo here.
