• Question about the operating system reinstall on Portege R500

  I bought the version of 64SSD R500, and for some reason any that it struck me to check if there was a DVD player to this topic.

  It was rather annoying.

  I know it's easy to buy an external drve to copy software etc on the Portege, so this isn't so bad.

  However, I'm considering a re - install, possibly to XP, but maybe just to reduce the amount of repulsive of bloatware I had on my computer when I turned on.

  Now to the crux of the matter: if I use an external USB drive, I need USB drivers. If I delete the operating system, which will remove the drivers.

  Finally, my question is: how in the name of hell is someone supposed to put a new installation in a R500?

  Thank you for your patience.

  I understand everything up to the point with the bloatware.

  But what I Don t understand is: what do you want with a USB hard drive? I hope that you don t average a USB - HDD (it s a bit confusing). ;)

  Usually, you can use all the drives without the need of some drivers because the machine offers you the ability to boot from a USB device after switching on of the machine and see the Toshiba logo...
  You need only press F12 and select the option to boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive. That's all.

• I just installed a new 320G hard drive. I partitioned for OS 4G. Now it says I have no more space, because it is using the partition of 4 GB for everything instead of just the operating system. Please help and advise what should I do and how to do it. Tha

  mjcandlec1,
  Welcome to the forums.  Firstly (and this is just my personal opinion) you can actually have a bit more large partition for the operating system.  Just to receive the updates and service packs and other.

  This article will show you how to change the default location of My Documents.  Also when you install programs then ensure you that you change the default installation directory, it will try to go on the C: drive.

• Trying to second drive hard partition...

  I have two hard drives and you want to remove 1 disk of the computer to use as the single disc on another computer:

  screenshot: http://i43.tinypic.com/4huxxw.jpg

  Disk 0 is the operating system for that computer, and must remain as it is.

  I can't try on partition 1 of disk...

  (1) I want to merge the pale green 4.16 GB of free space with the new Volume 5 (N)

  (2) then, divide the resulting partition into two partitions usable sizes equal

  (3) then, put in shape the 40,56 GB of unallocated in a usable partition space.

  I've got so far with Vista and Paragon Partition Manager Free Edition 2010 disk management but can get no further.

  There are data in DRIVE 2 VACUUM (M) Finally, I would like to keep, but the rest of disc 1 is practically empty.

  Any assistance received with joy.  TIA

  Honestly? If you do want to use partitioning software third the easiest thing is to copy the data you want to keep, and then simply delete all partitions, create those you want, format as you wish. Much faster. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Clean? Windows 7 restarting on formatted drive, 100 MB Partition not allowed no previous operating system, after the attack of virus, it reach the wifi drivers to not load or display in the new operating system?

  Left attack virus serious that some files disabled in windows 7 (protected by Microsoft Security Essential) a program used on the computer was left partially disabled and I continue when using wireless internet. Reformatted drive leaving 100 MB Partition intact, created in new OS was an old file of Windows not wanted, impossible any attempt at the value of the days of updates, downloads & allowing also noticed wifi. Another reader reformat leaving 100 MB partition again not affected since the original OS. All programs loaded & all updates succeeded, but still did not have through any discussion read to get the computer to WiFi wifi as in Starbucks invites you to discover. I have another operating system on the computer that is able to discover drive internet wifi from loading with windows 7 so not a hardware problem, I think. Question is can a formatted drive on the left with its original partition of 100 MB OS questions with new reloaded windows 7 and is the new installation of the operating system clearly & repopulate this partition of 100 MB for no bug cannot continue to corrupt and better performance? Thank you all.

  A new installation of windows 7 can be said to delete this partition. do you when you get to the section "where do you want to install windows?" in installing windows 7. There is a player options button that allows you to delete both partitions... then create 1 new partition for windows and it throws a message saying that the operating system can create additional partitions... blah blah... and she... that way the 100 MB partition is clear.

• Re: Can I repair the operating system without resetting the whole HARD drive?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M50, I ran an antivirus in safe mode scan today and must have accidentally deleted a file system because now I can not connect.
  The computer will start but when I try to log in it connect, flash back, my office to the floor once and then connect again.
  I can repair the operating system without resetting the entire hard drive and lose all my files?

  And if not, is there someway to initiate a prompt BACK because I don't that the file is still in the recycling bin, and I might be able to restore it.

  Hello Bambi

  Repair option with the recovery DVD (image recovery) is not available. Using recovery DVDs, you can install OS and have once again the factory settings.
  As far as I know at the BACK level, you can start using BACK discus. You can create bootable CDs.

  You can start your computer in Mode safe?

• How can I reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive?

  I strongly suspect failure of hard drive on my old computer XPS 420. Data recovery isn't a problem. However, because the way I too lazy to buy a whole new operating system, is possible that I can transfer the installation of Windows Vista on a new hard drive? I told me that Dell will send me an installation disc to do, but how to make a record like this, and is there another way?

  I'm thinking of ghosting the HDD on another and the use of the recovery for nuke partition in a new facility, but it would even work?

  Thank you

  The simplest method, I prefer to install a replacement hard drive, is to clone the existing hard drive to the new, that will also transfer all applications and programs.

  You need an imaging utility, similar to True Image Home 2015.

  http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage

  Acronis resize partitions transferred to match the size of the new hard drive.

  Hard drive manufacturers, also have their own free cloning software available, but it can be used only with their hard drives.
  
  First, install the new drive as the secondary and the image of the main hard drive in it.

  Immediately after the cloning, shut down the system, switch the data cable [SATA port 0] to the new disk, making the new master hard drive and see if the system boots properly.

  Start the system with only the new hard drive connected.

  Be sure to leave the original drive disconnected, until the new hard drive is working to your satisfaction.

  Before cloning a hard drive, make sure that the existing drive has no corruption or virus on it, because they will be transferred to the new hard drive.

  It will take a second SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.

  What is obtaining a disc from the Dell operating system Vista OEM [If Dell still copies of this available media], but you can be out of luck unless you have a warranty from Dell, but it's worth a try to see what is happening.

  If you reside in the United States, or the Canada and are the registered owner of the computer, with an active warranty, a disk that contains the operating system specific to your system factory installed can be requested HERE.

  Note: Dell may impose a charge for the disc.

  If you do not live in the United States, contact the Support from Dell, which is located in your country.

• When installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system?

  Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

  Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
  Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.

  First run Memtest86 +:
  It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
  sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
  Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

• How can I transfer the operating system on the new HARD drive?

  Toshiba Satellite C850D-11F, Windows 8.1. Out of warranty

  The hard drive is no longer achievable and will have been checked and declared "Kaput". I can get my hands on a fresh drive. But how to save the operating system that came with the laptop. Toshiba provides a free license? Is it possible that the licence can be transferred. I have the serial number etc. on the sticker on the back of the laptop.

  I assume that you did not create recovery media, right?

• How do I know which hard drive contains the operating system in the Hp Pavilion dv7-4069wm? The upgrade.

  I think the upgrade of one of my hard drives (ea 320) in my HP Pavilion laptop dv7-4069wm for more storage.  I like to keep the drive that contains the operating system to avoid the hassle to make a copy, but I'm not sure which one that is. I have not replaced a hard drive before, and still less a double disc. Recently, I added more RAM and noticed that both hard drives looked the same. Can someone tell me how to know the difference?
