• Dell has developed a passwoord and cannot access the Windows XP system on a network share in Windows 7.

  Original title: network router, XP computer and Windows 7 laptop computer dilemma.

  My system XP computer is part of a network using a router. I also have a laptop Windows 7, using the same network. Reference Dell set up a password so that the network is not accessible without password, reducing the risk of piracy. Now, I can not in the XP system because of the defined password.  How to reset or enter the password on the XP computer?

  Hi Scottid2,

  1. do you receive error messages when you access the Windows XP system?

  2. What is the password being set by Dell?

  You can check in the Windows 7 system if the password protected sharing is enabled. When protected by password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer.

  You can turn off password protected sharing and check if it helps.

  For more information, see the articles:

  Why can't I connect to other computers?

  Networking of computers running different versions of Windows

  As the password is set by Dell, you can also consult with support of Dell for the same thing:

• Windows 7 system error 1231 network location is not reachable

  I have a Win7 Ultimate domain member with a static IP address. Recently I discovered that I can't seem to use NetBIOS over TCPIP or similar to remote machines.  If I try to map a drive to a UNC I get an error 1231 about a network location that is not reachable.  Same result if used the remote IP instead of the netbios name.  I ping the remote server without error.  If I try something like a clear view on a remote server, it fails, but it works locally.  I created a share on Win7 box and I see another customer. I can not just make network connections.

  NetBT is running.  NetBios over TCP/IP is enabled.

  I disabled the NETWORK card and re-enabled.  I disabled TCPIP, re-activated and even re-installed IPv4.

  Nbtstat-n displays the name of the office.

  There is no LMHosts file used.

  Firewall is completely turned off and no antivirus is running or even installed also.

  I am short of ideas short of re - install the operating system.

  Summary: I can't map or view resources netbios on the network, but I can create shares on Win7 and communicate with them remotely.

  I need a new set of eyes. Suggestions?

• Cannot create disk to repair Windows 7 system on the new Dell 8700

  Just took delivery of a XPS8700 with Windows 7 installed.  There is no restore hard disk partition.  I created a backup and a System Image using the W7 backup and restore program.  When I tried to "create a system repair disc", I got the following pop - up. "Microsoft Windows repair disc has stopped working" and had to close.   I have W7 on three other computers in our House and have never met him this before.  Since the 8700 has not come with disks of windows, I'm afraid that I can't do a repair disc.  Would appreciate any direction because I am not having any luck.  The only thing I could do is to create "A disc Reinstall Windows."  Thank you.

  I suggest a clean install of Windows 7 with an .iso of Digital River and Activation backup and recovery program. See my guides here for more details:

• Partition of WINDOWS 7 system utility and reserved "hidden" image

  I used the WIN 7 system image utility before, but I must admit it took several attempts to work around the problem of the score of "shadow".  Nevertheless, I had done, but did not write the procedure.  I want to create an updated image.  The dialog box indicating that the image was created successfully appears.

  Not being not confident of WINDOWS, I took blank hard drives & restored the image & it wouldn't boot.  I got was a flashing 'MISSING OPERATING SYSTEM '.  I've booted from WIN 7 DVD & entered the prompt command & reviewed directories of the restored image & the \WINDOWS\system32 directory exist.

  I guess I solved my issue. I did not include this player in the exploitation of the IMAGE & assign letter of the score of "shadow". I restored the image successfully. I presumed that the startup config info would be ddinterrogated & copied by DEFAULT. I guess I guess THAT too.

• Image of Windows 7 on ssd smaller system restore

  Hi all.  I just wanted to share this guide on how to install windows 7 on an external drive to backup and restore the system image onto a smaller SSD using nothing but free tools and 1 non-Microsoft tool.

  Necessary.
  
  CD Recorvery Windows 7 system.
  GParted Live CD - available on sourceforge
  First backup the existing drive, using Windows Image backup system.  It's pretty basic, and here are the instructions:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-your-programs-system-settings-and-files
  Now that you have the shrink backup the Windows installation partition (partition system reserved + free space must enter target SSD).
  Shrink the Partition of Windows 7 to fit the target SSD:
  Do right click my computer > select Manage > click Disk Management > click with the right button on the windows installation partition (usually c :)) > select "Shrink" > select the maximum allowed by Windows.)  When you're done check to see if this partition with the system reserved partition fits under the size of the target SSD.  In my case I tried to use the Windows disk management, but it would not diminish beyond 100 GB even if there was enough free space, and that was bigger than the 64 GB ssd drive that I wanted to restore.
  Shrink Windows 7 Partition with GParted Live CD if above fails:
  Restart the computer with the Live CD.
  Simply press 'Enter' on all the guests to select the default Options or, if necessary, change options to work with your hardware.  The Live CD will start with GParted already running.  Right click on the partition of Windows Setup.  Select "Resize/move" > click on the right edge of the partition and move it to the left to reduce it until it fits the target SSD. Once you have set the desired size, click "resize/move". Click on the apply"" button. Click on the button "apply" once more to the warning screen pop.  Wait while the partition was resized.  In my case, it was about 12 minutes.  You should see '0 operations pending' on the bottom of the Gparted application window.  Once he finished, double-click on the "Exit" icon on the desktop.  Select "Reboot".  Remove the Live CD, and press "enter."
  When restarting you will probably see a Windows 7 disk management screen.  Let him complete the audit.
  Once restarted in the Windows 7 computer desktop with the desired partition size run another Image of the backup system this time with the desired partition size.  Place the Windows 7 System Image Restore CD and stop.  Unplug the power cord at the back of the computer.
  Install the SSD.  Reboot with the Windows System Image Restore CD.
  Then follow these steps.
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/7702/restoring-Windows-7-from-an-image-backup/
  Unfortunately, you will probably get a message stating that the image of the system cannot find a suitable disc.  In this case you will be lifted to some more recovery options which is the command prompt.  Launch the command prompt.  In the command line type in
  Diskpart.
  At the diskpart prompt, type
  Select disk = 0
  type
  retail disk
  to ensure that it is the SSD you selected.
  
  Now type
  clean
  then
  output
  Close the command prompt window.  (Credit http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/no-disk-that-can-be-used-for-recovering-the-system/e855ee43-186d-4200-a032-23d214d3d524)
  I had to reboot the computer, because I couldn't always restore the system image without rebooting.
  
  Now repeat the procedure of restore system image.  In case you forgot:

  At this point, the image windows 7 system restore worked!

  Right-click the CMD and run as administrator
  Check if the Trim is turned

• How to create a disk Image in Windows 8

  I want to do something real Basic.  I think I know how, but the confirmation of the need.  I want a disk Image full of my hard drives so that if my hard next week C drive crashes I can quickly return to normal (normal, the way which was when I made the image).  I do not view the files in the Image or anything else.  I just want to avoid the week it would completely re - install everything.  With regard to data (not the files system etc, but my personal data), I have another solution for this.  I think that the option of recovering files in Windows 7 in Windows 8 will do what I want in what concerns the creation of an image, but I want to be sure.  I think everything I do is as follows:
  In Windows 7 File Recovery select "create a System Image" and the backup on external media.  I think I also need to create a System Image repair disc.  Once this is done, if my C disk fails tomorrow I think that all I have to do, is as follows:
  Put the recovery disk in my hard drive.  Start the computer to the reader and follow the instructions to copy the stuff on my external hard drive through my C drive.
  Is the above, real or not?

  You guessed it... The system image is an image of the reserved system & windows partitions.

  With any Microsoft windows 8 install or update of the same bits of DVD or the same bits win8 system repair disc, put on cd, dvd or USB stick bootable... you can use it to boot from and there are simply in your sysem image and any hard drive of equal or greater size.    Will probably work.  Can never say for sure 100%.    its good to have a 2nd source of images and program to run it.  EaseUS ToDo Macrium or something.    Reads the command RecImg & what he does.

• ESXi6: error of storage when starting a Windows 7 image / deltadisks full file system

  Hi all

  I use an ESXi 6.0 with the latest patch on a HP ProLiant Microserver. Everything works perfectly except one Image of Windows 7 I have migrated from Microsoft Hyper-V.

  
  I had first consolidated the files on the disc in a single Image complete and then converted into a hard using WinImage.

  Now when I start the Image, Windows 7 does not start (starting Windows...) but then I get the error:

  
  Message der virtuellen Maschine

  Procedure der für die Datei ' / vmfs/devices/deltadisks/4 c 5... W7EN - s001.vmdk' fehgeschlagen ist (14 (wrong address)). DAS Dateisystem, dem sich die Fliegengitter ' / vmfs/devices/deltadisks/4 c 5... W7EN - s001.vmdk' is, ist voll. Wahlen Sie 'button.retry', um den procedure

  zu repeat. Wahlen Sie "button.abort", um die Sitzung zu

  The mentioned file exists, and the file system is obviously not complete. The error indicates filesystem, VMFS/devices/deltadisks/was full, but there are > 600 GB free.

  Any ideas what is happening here? What are these deltadisks?

  Please attach the file "W7EN.vmdk" - which contains the format of the virtual disk - to a response message.

  I think that we must do, is to use VMware Converter to convert the previously (with Winimage) converted to disk to ESXi like target. This will convert the spars (... s001.vmdk) disc format to support. If you have only the hard files, you can temporarily create a VMware Workstation (or reader) VM with the converted virtual disk attached and use it as a source for the converter.

• on windows xp, my system restore to a previous restore point. have you tried many restore points & creating new ones but the system does not restore. all the solutions out there?

  on windows xp that my system restore to a previous restore point, I tried many restore points & created new ones but the system displays "could not be restored", any help out there.

  Let see... What do we know about your system environment:

  It's windows xp.

  If we knew more, you would probably now.

  What is the problem that you are experiencing this thing you System Restore will be remedied?  System Restore is not a time machine.

  The system restore already worked successfully in the past?

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems like frustrating and a lot of time as possible by asking only not for any information system when a new question is asked.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  Some tools Anti Virus 'protect' your system so that they will not allow a restore of the system work properly.
  For example, if you use Norton/Symantec products, you will see a message like this:
  Restoration incomplete. Your computer cannot be restored...
  It is also a popular Symantec problem (well, I'll be polite and call an "undocumented feature"...), they wrote an article about it:
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/sharedtech.nsf/pfdocs/2005113009323013
  According to what you use for malware protection, you may need to disable the product temporarily, do the system restore and then turn the products light up again when the system restore is complete.
  Sometimes you need start your system in Mode safe and so that your protection programs are not running, and then do the system restore.  Tips from Microsoft in some of their articles that if the system restore does not restore your computer, start in Safe Mode, and then run the system restore.  It works for some configurations.
  System Restore is sometimes so afflicted or Restore Points are suspicious, the best solution is to reinstall your system restore.  This will remove the old Restore Points, but sometimes it's the only way to fix a broken system restore.  You don't have to reinstall XP, only the part of system restore.
  That can leave you with your problem of unspecified origin that you hope the system restore will fix (using a system restore is usually not equivalent to fixing the problem though).
  Give these ideas some consideration if they apply to you.
  Sometimes malicious will afflict your system restore to prevent you to find and remove malware.  It would much rather you trick into thinking that you need to repair or reinstall your XP when it is not necessary.
  No matter what you use for protection against malware, I do so and then only begin to solve any problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs can solve any problems:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  It can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  The scans by operating clean, reboot, test and we can fix any other issues.

• Restore a system image of Windows 7 in Windows 8

  I have a laptop Windows 7 with an overheating problem and seeks to replace. I want to transfer all my files and programs to the new laptop. If the new laptop Windows 8, I guess I would still be able to restore my Windows 7 system image, and only after that I would have all my files and programs in Windows 7 on the new laptop. So I would be able to reuse the product key of Windows 8 that came with the laptop for the re-upgrade to Windows 8 and have all my programs and files in Windows 8?

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forum.

  According to the description, I understand that you want to restore the image of Windows 7 in Windows 8.

  I wish to inform you that unfortunately you would not be able to restore the image of Windows 7 in Windows 8. However as a work around you can copy all of your data on a hard disk that is eternal and then pasted in the Windows 8.

  I would also like to inform you that product key Windows 8, which receive you with the new laptop, you will not be able to use for the process to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8.

  Hope this information helps.

  Thank you

• Can not turn on my computer... "the windows logon system process unexpectedly... system shutdown.

  When I turn on my computer, a blue screen appears and it says: 'the windows logon system process done unexpectedly...... closed system '. "what this means?

  I forgot to answer one question:

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  The most likely problem is that this file is missing:

  c:\windows\system32\winlogon.exe

  It might have been put in quarantine (actually deleted) by your antimalware/antivirus program, if you need to replace it.  There are other copies of the file on your system, which you can use to replace the missing file.

  You have to boot your system on something to do that, so if you have no real XP bootable installation CD, make a CD bootable XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console.

  Sometimes there is a problem to get into XP with XP Home Recovery Console, but work on this first, then we will see the replacement of the file:

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  When own running chkdsk/r, we can replace the file.

• How can know you if you have a bad image of Windows 8?

  I wonder to reinstall Windows 8, Windows 8, 1 and all my applications for the third time on a XPS 8700 I got in November. I thought that my image is bad is because the system will not install the version of Dell and Dell recovery created backup to work with Windows 8.1. The evidence is that the patch worked on another system. I'm sure that was the case, but it's not the same to know exactly what the problem with my system. Is it possible to see if an image is good, without having to take hours and hours and hours of time at it (to possibly find out that wasn't the problem after all).

  I use Windows 8.1, so there is no refresh of the operating system. I have a bootable backup, I can use, but this is still going to cost me a lot of time to get the system to date and supposededly it will not work because he did a bad image.

  If you run an installation on the settings of factory or Dell Media backup and restore, it's probably a bad image. I have not seen a good setting for all Dell Windows 8 systems and so recommend clean installation with a .iso Windows 8.1 forget Dell backup and recovery fully.

  If you can get the follow-up .iso Windows reinstallation Guide / a Clean Install of Windows 8.1:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/

  And use these workarounds:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/a-clean-install-of-Windows-8-1/Microsoft-product-activation/

  If you can not get a .iso 8.1 Windows and that you or a friend have a license to retail for Windows 8.0/8.1 of the same version then follow the solution here:

  http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-Microsoft-Windows-and-Office/Download-Microsoft-Windows/download-Windows-8-1-ISO/

  Otherwise, you will need to look for non-official sources.

  If you would rather not search through unofficial sources then you can a DVD of reinstalling Windows 8 request from Dell by filling out this form here if you are in the United States or to the CA:

  http://www.Dell.com/recoverymedia

  If you are in other areas, call Support Dell technology as they have not extended the courtesy of the form of support to other regions.

  Note Dell only you media of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 not to cause road blocks Microsoft imposed for difficult Windows 8.1 upgrade. The Windows reinstallation Guide therefore also explains how to clean install Windows upgrade to Windows 8.1 and 8.0 as cleanly as possible, but direct clean install is preferable.
