Cannot perform the factory restore, ThinkPad T530 with Windows 8

I just plug a new ThinkPad T530 with 64-bit Windows 8. I was playing around with it a bit, the installation of applications different but then decided to do a factory reset in order to get a clean machine again. I entered the recovery (F11 at startup) and utility of Windows 8 was launched recovery utility and I chose the "Reset Your PC". When the action has started the application asked me for the installation media THAT has NOT been PROVIED by lenovo. After I went back to Windows 8 and tried to make a rescue and the recovery disk using the Windows 8 feature, but again I got the same message asking me to insert the diskettes to install for Windows 8. I see that my machine has 2 recovery Partitions, so my question is WHY don't I RESTORE MY PC to FACTORY SETTING with the HELP of THE PARTITIONS on the DISK?

Guys, I think I found a solution for this problem (no reservoir of lenovo). Here goes:
Run diskpart (Win + R key)-> write DISKPART.
A command-line interface will appear.
Volume of writing list (lists the partitions on your disk)
Look for the partition that is marked as Lenovo_Recovery (in my case was Volume 3, size of 10 GB)
Select which-> the partition using the command select volume 3 (as in my case was volume 3)
Display the partition using the command-> assign letter g (or whatever letter you have available)
Take any collection action you like. I tried the "Create recovery disk' and 'Refresh PC', in both cases before this fix I received a message where I was asked for the installation DVD, but this case operations past.
Final-> hide the partition using the command, delete the letter g. This will not disable the functionality of recovery but will hide you partition which is a good thing, so you don't mess anything.

  • Cannot perform the iTunes update

    Hello
    Try to update iTunes, I received the message (attached, in German):

    "There is a problem with the Windows Installer Package. As a result, cannot perform the update of iTunes. Contact the technical support. »

    What can I do?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Best regards, Alpe1

    Try to repair the Apple Software Update of the programs and features Control Panel, and then reinstall iTunes.

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

    If the problem persists and you have a 64-bit system try for the old version of video cards which is a 64-bit Installer for most of the 32-bit code, similar to all 64 bit iTunes up to 12,1 versions.

  • 'Restore gadgets installed with windows' this selection is gray and cannot be selected. What now?

    original title: Desktop sidebar gadgets

    When you download a new gadget which folder does download while it appears in the selection of additional gadget.  I can't find a record that relates to the sidebar or gadgets on my computer.  Ran a search, and they do not always show upward.  In addition, instructions to restore gadgets installed with the computer: do right click Select sidebar - select Properties - 'Restore gadgets installed with windows' this selection is gray and cannot be selected.  What now?

    Here are the steps to download and install new gadgets. http://freewindowsvistatutorials.com/meetWindowsVista/windowsSidebarAndGadgets/downloadAndInstallSidebarGadgets.htm. There is no particular place to download - usually, I download them to the desktop for installation and then I use C:\Users\personal myself (with a special created Gadgets folder it contains) to store the download for use later, if necessary (assuming that I save it at all). Also, this procedure explains how to remove gadgets using the sidebar, so you don't have to go looking to uninstall files or anything like that.

    As far as the original gadgets go, here's a thread on the same problem with a solution which is marked as an answer (even if the person who has posted never confirmed it worked):http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistaprograms/thread/1a979f08-a67e-43a6-a87c-3fa02dff9be1.

    If this does not work, perhaps to restore the entire box will solve the problem.  Here's how:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/963010.  It can uninstall everything new gadgets that you added when it resets to zero (and I'm not positive that it will restore the original gadgets if he can fix the button greyed out), but if you accept that, it's worth a try.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Win.type = CSXSWindowType.MODAL_DIALOG;
