• Satellite P300 - 18 M: how reinstal Vista after repair the HARD disk

  Hello

  A month ago my laptop has suffered a critical failure of hard drive. So I sent in under warranty and it come back a day or two ago. With him a piece of paper stating that I have to reinstall windows in bold, yet windows (Vista) originally came with it (without a cd or a dvd if I remember correctly).

  I thought I was going to see the same installation process of windows the manual tells me to go through that when I arrived to the laptop, instead, I get a black screen back apparently under windows 98 (?) with "C:\ > ' ask me for an order or a file.

  So yes, I'm completely lost.
  Thanks for any help in advance.

  > more windows (Vista) came originally with it (without a cd or a dvd if I remember correctly
  You are right. But the laptop came with the option of disk recovery HARD and with a GREAT recovery disc creation notification using the preinstalled Toshiba Recovery disc creator.

  So if you didn't create the recovery disc then you would not be able to install Vista again. :(mais autant que je sais que vous pouvez commander un Recovery disk (pour tous ceux qui ne l t créer une disquette de récupération propre) from here):

• Vista - after installing SP1 computer does not.

  Have a laptop with Vista.  After several months of trying to download & install SP1 and failing repeatedly (connection problems - too many wireless phones, etc. in the area) I finally took the computer to my home, got ' weak ' neighbor, successfully downloaded the MS, began installing and I'm not clear if it was completely installed or not.  I guess that this is a not restart (not stopped?) when installing as I was warned.  I came back to a blank black screen and it will not shut off/down and it will not also power upward.  Help!

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply.

  The error message is not clear. What is the exact full error message?

  Try these methods.

  Method 1

  Try to start in last good known Configuration and see if you can start very well.

  Using the last good known Configuration

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/is-is/Windows7/using-last-known-good-configuration

  Method 2

  If the problem persists, I suggest you perform a startup repair and check if it makes a difference.

• Could not start the desktop Vista after installing Windows Vista SP2, error: 0XC0190036.

  Original title: vista sp2 problem.

  I have a laptop that I haven't used in a while.  I took on a trip and received the message that the updates are available.  One was SP2.  After the update is complete, it failed to start with a message OXC0190036.

  Startup Repair said that he could not solve the problem.  Restoration of the system has not only restore - labeled SP1 and it allows you to finalize the restoration of files and stays there.  (I waited for 3 hours without change).
  I have a XP install disc that I used before installing Win 7 on my desktop, but it does not give me the opportunity to do an installation.
  Can enter the command prompt, I'm perplexed as to what to do.
  I want to get this laptop that works so I can give to someone who needs a faster machine.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  XP disk will not help you to fix Vista

  As the system restore does not try a startup repair and / or a restoration of the system using a Microsoft Vista DVD

  Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.

  Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

  If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/repair-Windows-with-Windows-Startup-Repair/

  Table of contents

  1. Overview of Windows Vista repair options
  2. How to perform an automatic repair of Windows Vista using Startup Repair
  3. Advanced Tools Overview
  4. Conclusion

  If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.

  Unfortunately, you have to buy it.

  Here is a link to it:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2011/Windows-Recovery-discs-updated-reinstated/

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And here are a few ways to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Vista Startup Repair loop - OEM disc only

  My son has this problem after having just disable his laptop ASUS Vista after that that it froze. At the time, he was installing a new software (Trend Micro Internet Security Pro 2009) and an error of the pilot came to a Belkin USB peripheral series that he had added previously.

  Repair system just keeps looping - it gives the choice between repair or start Windows normally, but once it times out he just reloops without anything to do. I tried F8 to try other options, but none of these works (for example: start in safe mode, return to the last known good configuration, etc.).

  As Vista was loaded with the ASUS OEM, the Vista recovery disc does not offer anything but wipe the disc on which Vista is loaded, which means of course the entire disc is how they put in place.

  Are there other options?

  1. run a full scan to ensure that your computer is clean.

  2 How long ago since this problem happened?
  If it's not too long, and if you remember a time when you didn't have this problem, so do a restore of the system in safe MODE.
  Pick a date when there is no problem as long as your restore point.

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  3. go to safe mode and run a file system check. This is for finding corrupted files and it will try to repair if it is found.

  4. go to your computer manufacturer and check to see if your card grapgic driver needs to be updated.

• MS Vista startup repair couldn't fix the problem automatically

  Hello

  A little history - MS Vista was trying to install updates when the delivered system running. He failed. So I rebooted and it worked very well.

  When I re-started again after using it, even once, he tried to install updates. He failed. So I rebooted and it worked fine again. I went through the whole process several times in recent weeks.

  Then the other day, I got this screen start that says "Windows cannot repair this computer automatically. Since then, I can't get the computer started.

  The details of the problem are shown as:
  Problem event name: StartupRepairV2

  In addition, all tests have been completed successfully, with the same error code = 0x0

  First cause is to the states that "Startup Repair tried several times but still not determine the cause of the problem."

  If I have to re - install the operating system again... I was not given a CDROM as a HP laptop... How can I actually re - install, when I do not have the CDROM?

  Also, I have some very important folders on the hard drive and I want to recover the files first before reinstalling the operating system...

  Any advice on how I can get before I have to destroy it by reinstalling the operating system would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks to you all.

  As you don't have a Vista DVD, try this:

  Understand the Extras in Windows Vista and Windows Update info is at the link above.

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Vista will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  Install them one at a time until you find the one problem.

• the goal even after repair

  I recently bought a refurbished rebel t5 with the kit lens 18-55mm, as well as the 10-18 mm IS and 55-250 IS lens. Everything has been fine with all my equipment except for the 18-55 mm lens. When the rotation of the lens to zoom in or out, there was a notieable rubbing or grinding noise and there were a few sticking points where the goal was not spin smoothly. I took in a Canon customer service center and they we sent for repair. I am the home goal today and everything is exactly the same thing when I sent it. Same grinding noise, even the sticking points. The service details, bak I say "your product has been examinded and it was found that the party was out of position, causing noises occur. The part of the description says "Focusing ASSY YG2-2353-000 part number".

  I have also two older lenses that I had with the original Canon EOS rebel, I have a 18-55 and 75-300. So none of my other 4 lenses have this problem, but I don't know how many questions it's really. This could potentially damage the lens over time? Or is that what I should really worry? It isn't really the effect on my shot, but I don't want to be slowly causing damage every time that I have to zoom in or out. Since he was sent back to me like that after repair, should I just assume that it is not a big deal, because the repair obiously Center don't think it was if they sent back like that?

  Thanks for any comments,

  Matt

  Matt,

  I don't have this particular goal, but I've been involved with a lot of people what to do. «It is not really effect my shooting,...» ", seems to be like that.  The lens can jump gear fairly easily. You can reset it by deleting and expanding the focus and zoom all the way, both ways.  You can hear a few clicks.  Be gentle.  It's really not a good candidate for the repair, if it is under warranty.

  Using it, he can't last forever or not. If not, buy the new improved version. The Canon EF - S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens STM or elsewhere, far, the best choice for Canon EF - S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens.

• Problem re-installing VISTA after the removal of Windows 8 Preview Release, all I get is a black screen with a message "Not found operating system"

  I recently tried Win 8 on my VAIO laptop spare parts on which I ran Vista, after having previously deleted all the files and documents (I don't use often the laptop). Having concluded that Win8 will really work correctly with a touch screen (and the display size was bad as well), I uninstalled WIN 8, understand that I have to re - install Vista from my rescue disks. This I tried successfully a few months previously to make a clean reinstall. However, after removing 8 WIN via the Control Panel, I can't re - install Vista now. All I get is a black screen with a message "The operating system not found" and the rescue disks do not register. What can I do? I like Vista (although I now run Win 7 on my PC) and really want to put it back. Grateful for the advice.

  Well I finally fixed it by tweaking the BOOT BIOS settings and find something along the lines of VAIO Setup. I'm afraid, I just don't remember exactly what I did, but suddenly I found and ran 'VAIO Hardware Diagnostics' gave me a heart when it announced "no error was detected on the Vaio. Then I saw there was an entry for 'VAIO Recovery Utility - Recovery Wizard' and everything started to load. Since the 2 recovery discs I had. Finally, I ran MS Office and Small Business CD-ROM and now everything is back the way that it used to be. Here I had taken more note of how I got to the well Recovery Wizard. I hope that I never have to do it again!
