• Is it possible to reinstall Windows without a disk?

  original title: reinstalling Windows without a login

  Hi all

  My brother has changed his password on his computer (Windows Vista Home Basic) and now he don't remember it. He didn't have a password reset disk.

  We tried to make a password reset disk to another computer and try to use it on his, but he failed.

  I read that there is also an administrator account on the computer in safe mode. This has been proven false on his computer, as well.

  Finally I found that if you re-install Windows then it would work. This has not been tried still for reasons given below, hense why I ask here.

  We do not have a Basic Windows installation disc, because we have not improved. It's a phone, too good.

  Is it possible to re - install Windows another way, and if so, how do you do that?

  Please keep in mind that we do NOT have the installation disc, and we can NOT connect to any.

  See you soon

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  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...

  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.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the 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 own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s 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):

  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

  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.

• Reinstalling Windows without installation disks

  Let me clarify some things that I think are made:

  Laptop = ideapad z575 which is a windows 7 64 bit computer.

  Windows wouldn't boot because it has an error since avg and update wondows - avg seem to be ashamed that their driver is the last show at startup but remove avg then showed another driver and it all points to a depth of problem.
  In short, I feel that a reinstallation is the best way forward.

  I saved my data sisters so happy to do a quick format and reinstall of windows 7 - have the serial number sticker, but no disk I do not think that it shipped in all.

  I didn't modify all partitions, but using a utility disk in the back that I was able to access it via the standard boot drive I can put another active partition... now to return back I had to create a bootable utility that I made from USB, it also allows me to inspect the readers through a windows interface.

  So I am here and able to do a lot in the back through my USB. I saw and was able to run a recovery program that is located on one of the partitions. But he told me that something was friends with readers and I think it's because of my defining a different partition as the only active.

  What is the next best step for me it feels exaggerated do not use partition lenovo gave to reinstall windows, hoping I wouldn't need browse and find/download all the drivers, etc... and not to mention updates of bios etc...

  I can say that I have the following discs and back access and access through GUI.

  When I say access via the GUI I found that I was able to do this system revoery options screen when he says click to search the drivers an interface will appear and where I can the eyebrows of all partitions and USB - which was pretty cool. The button says "Load Drivers" and from there, I can choose the partition and try and run one touch back.

  When he first boot from USB it looks like as it is by default and selects a Boot called drive (X and the default folder is the Windows/System32 folder.)

  Here are the disks or partitions I can see and explore

  Lenovo (C 27.5 Free GB GB 28.9 contains just request files and drivers.)

  Local disk (E it looks like there's a Windows installation on it that I can see my sistsers files in the my documents (I got these by using XCOPY to get the complete recursive directory and do be careful if you use just "copy" as it will ignore folders and files inside!)) For me, it's the normal bootable disc and one that is broken.
  349 GB free of 421 GB so this seems to confirm that it is the main trunk and use the partition.

  Local disk (D only 166 199MB MB no said no files and folders at least since the GUI - perhaps back can show me something...)

  Start (X 29.1 MB of free space of 31.5 MB I don't think it's my USB (NOT confirmed) the last modified date is 2009! he seems to have a windows installation - is possible to reinstall from that?) I tried to click on a setup.exe found here but it does not work via the GUI as it comes to find specific drivers is not not a general file Explorer.

  I have 2 drives USB also visible to help me. I got the above files to another on the ERD. And the 3rd is the CD. If these are known as CDROM (F, Reapir disk (G: I did that) and 32 GB Flash (H)

  Maybe I need to burn an iso install wondows in the latter. Who can be a last resort.

  What is perhaps a few right steps to take right now. I think I should be able to change my active partition and get a contact working again by reversing what I was doing back disk partition - don't remember the name... a few trial and error required.

  But I hope that with this info I can get my sisters laptop that works again. I think also that if I took it to a local shop they will simply be to format and reinstall windows 7 and drivers do not care to take the time to maybe get to a situation of factory. It is because the baisc economy. I don't want to go that route because I know I can do what I want to just make the best way.

  Knew nothing about this function - will keep in mind for the next window of time slows down or does not start - throw his toys out of the pram etc... suffering from windows computer slow? You are not alone

  In any case, I think I've sorted it. Hope that C is not too fragmented because I chose to not be complicated with a format and keep the original scores. In this way its just easier.

  Wifi that I had remembered to disable in the BIOS.

• Compaq 6720 s won't start not

  Hello

  I have laptop Compaq 6720 s Intel 1.7 Ghz, 1 GB of ram, running Windows XP Professional.

  When I went on the laptopm the wifi led is on, power led is not lit and the led above the charge point lights with a light blue color and blinks. The screen is dark (see no activity here). I can hear the fans running and nothing else. It stays that way. When I unplug the power cord, the fans will continue to run and I had to cut the fans to perform on the power button of the laptop at all times.

  Even the laptop is turned off, the indicator light above the power cord blinks without interruption. I removed the battery and plugged the power cord. Always the same condition. Now, the laptop power cord is not connected. I have strength under tension of the laptop (which disappears in turn fans). But the led above the power cord keeps burning anything.

  I think I have a 1 year warranty left. I can communicate with HP service staff only on Monday. But I would like to know if I can do anything to throw upwards before that. More important, I want to know if my data is recoverable.

  Thank you

  Harish

  Try a hard reset.

  Remove the battery and disconnect the electric plug adapter.

  Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds. Then put the battery back and try a boot to the top in windows.

  If it does not try reinstalling your modules of memory and try a boot up into windows.

  Then see if external connection to the video out gives you monitor a way in windows.

  If it does not try to remove your hard drive and see if your laptop shows the BIOS screen.

  If still no go, pass any of this than troubleshooting insulation information about the HP Service Center.

  Kind regards

• Satellite L350 - want to reinstall Vista without touching the second partition

  Hi all

  I want to reinstall Vista without touching the second partition that is full of data.
  I'll be able to do with this procedure? http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm#

  The confusing part is when it says in the explanation that the * entire hard drive * will be formatted (step 2) but on one of the photos, it is written that only data on C: will be erased.
  I have Satellite L350, and the hard drive recovery process is the same as on the connected tutorial before (I'm not completely obviously)

  Hi amigo

  I tested its operation, and from my experience, I can confirm that when you use the HDD recovery procedure as described in the Toshiba document all data saved on the second partition won t be deleted.

  Only if you are using recovery DVD (please create a) will be formatted the whole HARD disk.

  You have a hard drive partition to do - but you would need to contact/see the FAQ from the hardware manufacturer (HP, Dell, Gateway, Lenovo, etc) to see if and how.

  Otherwise - you might have to order (pay for possibly) the factory restore/recovery of the value of the manufacturer.

• Network drivers for Compaq 6720 s

  Hi all.

  I tried similar topics before posting, finding nothing; so I apologize if I was wrong and a similar thread already exists.

  I formatted my Compaq 6720 s, re-installation of Windows Vista (the same system before formatting). After that, I noticed that miss me the network drivers (the computer is not able to identify wi - fi networks) and I couldn't find them on the net. I installed HP wireless assistant but it does not help.

  Also, I noticed that the system does not work in a full screen, but more about a square screen based on the height (so there is a black band on both sides), then, probably, I also have some problems within the video drivers.

  Thanks to those who will help me by telling me where to find the drivers.

  Hello:
