• Qosmio G30 (PQG31E) - reinstall Windows from the original disc

  I bought my Qosmio several years back, and I think not, it is still covered by any warranty.

  Recently, my system files on the hard drive of Windows (C :) has been corrupted (or the hard drive has bad sectors; whatever), and chkdsc crashes when I'm trying to fix it.) I would like to reinstall Windows, however, when you start resuscitation DVD, the installation will stop with the following error message:
  "Error: setenv file x:\setenv.ini or x:\tools\setenv.ini not found".

  Indeed, the file doesn't seem to be present, when you look at the filesystem x:\ from the console. However, it is present when viewing the Windows DVD.

  I found after help here: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0302U10000R01.htm, however, bios of Qosmio is not as bios of the Satellite. I can't find the settings provided.

  How to fix this error in Qosmio?

  Qosmio G30 is old laptop model, and may not be covered by the standard warranty. He's too old.

  This Toshiba document, which describes certain problem more recent Satellite L500D Pro and Satellite L550D Pro, has nothing to do with your old laptop Qosmio.

  I also believe that the HARD drive can be troublemaker to verify HARD drive using different tools and following the advice of s of Akuma.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop and would like to reinstall Windows. The disc was divided into 2 parts. WinXp Home is installed on the first.

  And if this is the case, how can I reinstall winXP Home without losing the data on the second drive?

  You can install the OS on the first partition only and all data saved on the second partition will not be deleted. To do this procedure of departure recovery and after choosing the language button tablecloth call SETUP. It is placed on the right side.

  If I like what you must remember he chose the second option. The first one can be used when you want to create the new partition (DO NOT choose this one).

  My request is: how to install Windows 7?

  Hello

  There are two options available.

  1. you can order a set of replacement recovery disks using the link below - it will reinstall the operating system, all the drivers, and almost all of the original software (the exception being often tests of MS Office).  They will also recreate all of the original scores, including the recovery Partition.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  2 another option that you might consider is to create your own Windows 7 installation disc.

  Before you try the following, make sure that you can always read the character product activation key 25 on your label Windows COA (5 blocks of 5 alphanumeric games).

  An example of a COA label can be seen here.

  You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself using another PC - just download the good Disk Image ( this must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - it is listed as Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a very respected source (Digital River).

  Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

  Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

• How can I re - install vista without the disc, because I only have the key encoded on the computer.

  How can I reinstall vista without the disc and remove windows 7 (an illegal version) also without the disc. I have only the original vista coded key stuck on the computer when the vista system installed on the purchase of the computer. My daughter was not happy with vista and had someone to install windows 7, which turned out to be an illegal version.

  Hello

  If you have a recovery partition likely has been cleared by installing Windows 7.

  You can try the recovery partition, no guarantees.

  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.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  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.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  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.

• 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.

• How to reinstall Windows without ODD on my NB250?

  Dear people,
  I have a NB250 (PLL2PE) which gives a code of FAJDH 0xc00000e9 laptop. I want to reinstall windows in the hope that this will help, but the phone doesn't have a cd-rom drive, or received no installation CD. (probably because of the absence of a player?) I have only the installation code of windows on the tile down.

  How can I manage Windows reinstall? F8/F12 does not work and so I can't do anything else can start Windows.
  Y at - it somewhere that I can download the files I need?

  Greetings with goodness, Mirjam

  (my native language is Dutch)

  > I found now that I CAN use the bottom of the F2 and enter in the Phoenix Secure database configuration utility
  I suppose that you access the BIOS.
  Sorry, but you're on the wrong track

  Timox has already explained how to install the system.
  If the HARD drive recovery is not possible, you should use external media (disk or flash USB stick) to install the system.

  You have a Windows disc? If this isn't the case, you need a.
  If so, you could create an installation key USB flash memory.

  If you would google to install Windows 7 from USB you will get much useful occurrences
  There are also a lot of youtube videos how to create this bootable USB key.

• Reinstall windows using the same product on the same computer code

  I had to reinstall windows (which went from 32 bit to 64 bit) and using my 'ultimate windows' disk I reinstalled windows with the right code, but it does not accept it... same same computer hard drive.   Why he won't accept my even activation code...

  They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

  Click next to complete the activation.

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

• Is it possible to save photos from lightroom without the original file?

  I recently imported photos into lightroom, but I did not back up the original files on my computer and they are deleted from my card.  The images still appear in lightroom.  Is it possible to save them from lightroom without the original file?

  Your images are not - and have never had - in Lightroom, they are just referenced in the Lightroom database.

  Lightroom generates jpeg previews of the originals, however, and you can export users export preview plugin of Rob Cole: robcole.com - PreviewExporter.

  To be clear, however, that are not originals.
