Compaq v2608wm of SPACE DISK LOW

Just after I restored my lap top it began to display a low disk space. Since then, I have deleted all possible programs.

at this moment I have 70 MB of free space. Another post on this forum, Bellke, suggests several ways to reclaim space, but I can't always solve this problem. I have 50 GB of free space on drive D and more C runs permanently out of space.

I deleted all my photos, Quicken, all games and related programs to name but a few. I could really use some HELP.

Yep, restart with the OS disc and just follow step by step, simply delete the old partition of hard disk in the installation and just do a quick format of it. Good luck with it. Let me know how it turns out.

    You really need to think about 15%, a minimum of free space on the disk.

    Your 1st task is to try to identify the cause of the lack of space. Things like music, photos and especially video may gradually creep on you.

    TreeSize here is quite useful to work where space is gone.

    Libraries can be moved. Expand 1st level of etiquette in the left pane to display the top folder and right-click. The location of the tab, you can change the location of one of the empty discs and it will copy all files when you click on move. If you have more than one user, it is best to create a record of the user for each group and then do it for each of them. Don't forget to check the new location is included in all of the backups.

    Also use disk cleanup too. Open the computer, right click on the C drive, and then click Properties. Click Disk Cleanup. For more options in the result, click on the option of system files and see what you can get rid of.

    If this is the recovery Partition:

    Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

    1. to reinstall Vista from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

    F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

    You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

    2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

    Also ask them how to make records.

    Your D: or E: drive of recovery should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

    There are backups on an external hard drive.

    To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

    Even tried to reformat the drive using the recovery of products of Toshiba, nothing helps.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    You mean that 30 GB on the HARD disk are available?

    Check the status of the disk in disk management.
    You can see the entire HARD drive and all the available partitions
    Perhaps a partition has been created and the other part of the HARD drive is unallocated space

    But he s strange this recovery disk didn't solve this usually recovery disk format the whole HARD drive and redefines the laptop to factory settings

  • Compaq Presario SR1150NX: Error, disk Compaq recovery dead

    Hello, I have a desktop Compaq Presario SR1150NX of 2005. Everything works well in it and we emptied dust not for long. But then, one day I went to start it it says a critical system file was missing. I'm confused at first. After half an hour, creating a USB disk only to find it didn't work, I then had to use the Windows XP Recovery Console. Then after I fixed it it still didn't start because it couldint find the file. But when I start the computer, it shows me that, if I press F10, it boots into system recovery mode. OT started and told me that I could boot into windows xp system recovery. But in the middle of this, the computer overheats and shuts down. When I tried to turn it on again it gave me a disc error AND when I boot in recoervy, it's just bluescreens. Now when I turn on the computer, it does nothing.

    Is there any where where I could download a recoervy tool to open the hard drive in order to get the data on the drive and get a new drive? Or get a Windows recovery disc?

    Any help is the Apprecited!

    Remove the disk from the desktop.

    USB 2.0 for HDD SATA/IDE adapter 2.5/3.5/5.25IN drives w / adapter

    See: http://www.ncix.com/detail/usb2-0-to-sata-ide-drive-adapter-a3-17762.htm

    and connect your hard disk with this adapter to a USB port on your computer.

    When you connect, Windows will ask your permission to run 'check disk' ('CHKDSK') to review and fix any problem of file system.

    I think that the corrupt currently-system files on the hard drive is causing startup problems you reported.

    Re-connect the desktop "repaired" disk drive, and then try again.

  • Notebook Compaq 420: Notebook Compaq 420 - back space key does not when wifi or / and Blurtooth on

    Hello!!!

    My notebook Compaq 420 - enter, back space, arrow up and down keys do not work when wifi and/or Blurtooth is swicthed on. Keys function properly as soon as wifi and bluetooth are swicthed off.

    Then only, when Wi - Fi and/or bluetooth is turned on - keys stop working.

    without Wi - Fi and/or bluetooth - keys work properly.

    Tried it under things;

    1. update of the WOOD.

    2. update the driver keyboard (uninstall and reinstall)

    3 Wifi driver update (uninstall and reinstall)

    4 W 7 reinstallion

    As keys are work properly when wifi or / and bluetooth are turned off so no problem with the key or the hardware.

    Help, please.

    I think the problem is with wifi/blueooth activate key. something like short circuit.

  • disk space disk utility

    I'm really getting fed up with the OS x team. They killed another great utility in El Capitan "disk utility". Now it won't let me create disk or partition of any player images. It gives me the following error:

    "(null)" doesn't have enough available space to create the 'Home' disc image file Choose a different volume at least 125,49 GB of available disk space to continue.

    I intended to create the image of the score by one user profile (the user was not logged) on 2.7 TB of free space on the drive connected locally. I also tried a different destination drive (SSD) with about 300 GB of free space with the same result.

    Anyone seen this before? All solutions?

    They are really kill this great OS. If they continue to do so, I will give up this ecosystem in the same way I did with Microsoft 10 years.

    Some time ago, they said they're going with OSX UI to iOS. If that's true, then I better start watching another OS until they completely freeze my workflow.

    Great job Apple!

    Just because you don't know what you do does not mean that there is a problem with disk utility.

  • Compaq presario v6000 v6409tu disk hard bios self-test fail

    Hello

    Windows xp no my pc compaq v6000 not starting and bluescreen showed a couple of times. I ran the BIOS (phoenix) disk hard diagnosis and the test failed. When I opened my HDD I noticed green rust as deposits into the connector on the hard drive. After cleaning with a brush, computer loaded XP successfully. But an hour later, while I was surfing in mozilla suddenly the mouse pointer started late and showed computer blue screen saying that windows has been closed down to prevent damage.

    I would be grateful if someone can tell me if it's a software problem or hard drive error. If I need to replace my hard drive, what are my options, for example. rpm, capacity, provider? Thank you.

    The only way you could have rusted copper into the connector on the hard drive is if liquid got in there so I am reluctant to try to speculate how much damage has been done. I remove the hard drive and connect it to the outside to another computer and run chkdsk on it to see if the drive itself is bad. As long as there is a problem on the part of connector and the interface with the motherboard cannot really trust the onboard hard drive Diagnostics. You could also get an own another new hard drive adapter.

    If it does not turn on the hard drive is bad, you can replace it with any laptop SATA drive no more than 9.5 mm thick.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822145587

    Above is a good thing. It is slim (7mm) but it will still go into the caddy and connect to the motherboard with the connecting piece. If the hard drive itself is always good, and you replace the connector piece but he always bluescreens, so I would not spend money on a new hard drive. I would say that there was damage to the motherboard.
