computer laptop vaio vgn-c290 and inability to restore the complete system
I have a vaio laptop vgn-c290 (windows vista Home premium), using the f10 at the system startup key, tried to restore the complete system (c :) drive), but installing custom programs stopped at 55% 'installation click on dvd' feature. I waited about an hour to see any progress but nothing happened and I had to interrupt the installation process and windows not installed correctly. Please help me find a solution.
Thank you very much.

Hello
I return my HP laptop a few weeks of the repair shop. It worked very well, no lags, virus, etc. So... One day I decided to check the system information to see if my cell phone is compatible to run a game. I was going through the information and I saw this:
System model: laptop HP Envy 4 (SA in FACT 6)
My laptop was showing the serial number some R000000000000 and the registered serial number the back of my laptop is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Now I'm starting to feel a bit suspicious of what the hell happened to my laptop.
Laptop: Sleekbook 6-1090ee ENVY
Any help would be appreciated
Kind regards

Hello:
I suggest to contact the repair center and ask them what they were doing to repair your laptop.
From what you wrote, it seems to me like they replaced the motherboard with a used 4 envy, which probably uses the same motherboard as the envy of 6.
The only major difference between the models would be the size of the display screen.
A used replacement motherboard would have a different serial number than the original one provided with your PC.
A repair shop would need a special tool of DMI BIOS HP to change the serial number on the motherboard to match that on the bottom of your PC case.
So, if you are happy with the repair work, they did and the specifications of the system are the same as they were before you sent the PC for repair, I wouldn't be too concerned with matching serial numbers is more.

When I close my laptop running 2 files and when I do the closing and after that I open the screen is white... what I need to do?
Hello
Let us try these methods and check if that helps.
Method 1.
You can try the last good known Configuration and check if that helps.
Using the last good known Configuration: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows7/using-last-known-good-configuration
Method 2.
You can use the restore points for Windows 7 to return to a previous state, when your computer was working properly.
System Restore: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/system-restore
Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.
Let us know if you need assistance with any Windows problem. We will be happy to help you.

I plan to upgrade my OS to El Capitan. What are the processor speed and memory required for the operating system works well?
I use a processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 with DDR3 4 GB 1333 MHz memory.
My last similar attempt on another machine resulted in a very slow computer.
Thanks, Ron
Apple says the following:
General requirements
- OS X 10.6.8 or later version
- 2 GB memory
- 8.8 GB of available storage
For best performance, I would say not less 4 GB and preferably 8 GB or more.
Your i5 is well able to support properly.

I am in yahoo mail and there is a window that has the windows displayed and I can click on one of the images of a window and it will restore the window how to access this window (size full one who possesses a collection of previous windows in a complete graph/no format)?
The window that I write the topic is a collection of previous windows images in a smaller size.Firefox has a feature to view all your open tabs in one or more groups of tabs. You can show and hide this screen by pressing Ctrl + Shift + e. Is this the one you see, or something different?
If you ended up with more than a group of tabs and you want to consolidate them, you can drag the thumbnail images all in one group.
More information: use tab groups to organize a large number of tabs.

I edited a photo in Lightroom 5 and when I exported the completed picture, she went from a 1.3 MB to a 542KB file. Everything I read says it is fine and I don't lose any resolution - but I wanted to ask the community. Thoughts?
You may not have lost any resolution... or you can understand the word "resolution" bad
Resolution isn't the file size, which are the numbers you are quoting. So the 1.3 MB changing to 542KB does not indicate a change in resolution. If you export the picture and let the box that says "Resize to Fit" disabled, so you don't waste no resolution at all, even if the file size has changed.

MikeReboot, or power on the laptop and immediately after that the Sony Vaio logo disappears, press the F10 key several times. This brings you to the built-in recovery Partition.
You can reinstall the operating system from there.
