• How to clone disk HARD of backup/restore for ideapad with pre-installed win8 and recovery button work?

  Hi all

  I recently bought a y510p ideapad. It came with pre-installed win8, and I have no recovery CD. I intend to play with linux on this laptop, but do not want to lose win8. So before I have potentially immediately reformat, I think to make a copy of clone of my HDD on an external USB drive. The general plan is like that,

  1. make a copy of mobile on external USB HARD drive

  2 mud with linux - and foolishly autour reformat the entire process

  3. have fed up with linux and want to return to windows

  4 copy of retrospective data from usb driver external HDD latop

  5 return to the comfort of win8

  With the help of this tool (clonezilla) will work in the above scenario?

  http://www.MakeUseOf.com/tag/free-advanced-hard-drive-cloning-solution-from-Clonezilla/

  If not, are there any other alternatives (free if all goes well) I could use?

  My intention with the backup, is that after that I have 'restore' things, "a key recovery" button should continue to work as before.

  Make the plan will cause OKR is not functioning properly. To prove this to get a hard drive of exact size and make a clone of hard disk of the device. Remove the hard drive from the unit and place the disc clone hard inside. You can now play with the disk hard clone to your hearts desire but OKR first test if it still works. Even if OKR no longer work, you can proceed with the installation of linux. Once you're disgusted with Linux everything you have to do is replace the hard disk clone with the original hard drive and you're back to win with OKR 8 still works.

• Satellite M30X-OneNote2003 included but problem

  The laptop comes with OneNote2003, but I can't use it yet because people ask me the registration key.
  There is no software with the key on the Pocket CD because it was already installed on my computer when I bought it.

  Please, what can I do?

  Hello
  Your laptop should have come complete with recovery disks Toshiba, a disc of utilities/drivers of Toshiba and diskettes to install for any software supplied as OneNote, works, etc.. The product key should be on the cover of the CD.

  If you do not have the CD cover, then you will need to contact the Microsoft customer service to get a new key. They will need information from you about your installation that may involve your access to the registry to provide the GUID of the existing product. Information on how to proceed are on the Microsoft Web site.

• Access my external hard drive to Windows on my new Mac

  Hello world

  I am a new user of Mac Yosemite, recently moved from Windows and I am a passionate photographer

  All my photos are saved on two external hard drives of laptop computer Windows

  Is it possible to access outside data by car and it is hard on the Mac

  I keep reading things on the partition and FAT32 or the disc running utilities to reformat, but I'll lose all the images on the external hard drive

  I feel like I'm missing something here

  [What should I do to be able to view my images on Mac, I will then load in Lightroom for editing [the forest of Lightroom] that I'm very good]

  Thank you... Venus

  Simply connect the player and open the files. Unless you need to write to the disk, you don't need to do anything else.

• Help please - recover Vista Activation key

  The two HARD drives on my son Jonathan HP laptop recently became corrupt and then dead beyond resuscitation (according to two disc test utilities).

  A few years ago, we bought the laptop for him.  I removed the wrong drive and formatted backup drive (because there are corrupted files), and since it does not create the rescue disks, I installed my old copy of Vista Home Premium 64.  The computer that I installed initially this O.S. has since been wiped and a new copy of Windows 7 was installed.

  The sticker with the original serial number / activation key # on the back of the laptop of Jonathan carried through beyond being readable.  However, the serial number of HP is still readable.

  1. How can I retrieve the original key to the original installation of Vista 64 Home Premium?

  1. work this key with the installation of my Vista installation disc anymore?

  2. If an answer to Q1 is not available, can I use my older disk of Vista 64 Home Premium laptop of Jonathan key successfully can continue to receive vital updates?

  3. If the answers to both 1 & 2 are negative, Microsoft will release a new key/activation code, and if so, where should I go to acquire it?

  Thanks in advance for any help on this!

  Hello

  Microsoft will not replace your lost on an HP machine pre-installed product key

  support comes from HP for this computer not microsoft

  If a computer came preinstalled vista dell HP etc it is selected as an OEM license and is linked to the original computer it is installed on and is not transferable

  When the computer dies dies of windows with her license

  He bought a retail vista license yourself it is transferable

  but you must still know the product key

  and it can only be installed on a computer at any time

  but as you never said what kind of vista licenses you have read the above and decide what licenses you have

  and if the hard drive has been wiped and the product key sticker is unreadable we cannot help you recover a product key

  If your son's computer came with preinstalled vista application to HP you send for her recovery disks

  normally is not required during their use product key entry

  BUT ask 1 HP

  blueyesguy

  Sounds like the disc drivers and utilities, is defective.

  All Dell drivers can be downloaded on their drivers and here, download site

  http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriversHome/?c=us&l=en&s=DHS&CS=19

  Note: Use Download Manager from Dell, choose the option 'Download' Using My Browser when you select the file to download.

  Download the drivers in a folder, you must create on the PC you use, name the folder "downloads".

  After that all the drivers are downloaded, plug the USB key into a USB port and transfer the file on the disk, using the Menu "send to".

  After installing XP, connect the USB drive to the computer you want to install the drivers on, go to my computer, click on the USB key to locate the folder, open the folder and install the drivers in the correct order.

• Updated to XP SP3, get the error "Windows 8 Installation failed" and shows "Failed during installation install.wim"

  I constantly get this error when you try to install Win 8 on XP (SP3). He gets 47% full, and died with the newspaper showing:

  : Error ApplyWIMCallback CONX application C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Windows.NEW\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v4.0.30319_32\System.Xml\9ba07396ae369d010c5c3927a82ef426\System.Xml.ni.dll. RULE [605] [gle = 0x0000025d]
  Failed error when installing install.wim CONX. Error: 0x8007025D [gle = 0x0000025d]

  I did all the things that have been proposed in other posts:
  -removed the virus checker
  -installed any software encryption
  -no special disc running utilities
  -Windows Update
  -run the command chkdsk
  -clean boot (all the services package disabled).

  Any suggestions as to what I can try?

  Boot from the DVD Windows 8
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• 32-bit Windows7 64 bit Vista drivers needed

  Hi all

  I'm looking to confirm drivers that need to be used when upgrading a custom install of Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 64 bit

  My system is a Pavilion a6109n is a 64-bit system

  I use vista 64-bit drivers that are the only drivers 64-bit available?

  Again something I do not have the HP disk I bought directly at retail.

  Message edited by MsRoboto159 on 11/19/2009 08:00

  Hi MsRoboto,

  Your Vista drivers will probably not work. Some of them might, but probably not worth the hassle of trial and error. Since you use complete installation of operating system Microsoft, you would probably be to wipe out all of your existing software and data, particularly since you're going OS 32-bit to 64-bit. Then save info all important first.

  Here are the links for Win 7 drivers, you will probably need:

  Chipset

  Audio (accept any agreement from Realtek, click Next and then download Win 7 version).

  You will also need to find applications such as a DVD player and disc burning utilities. After you upgrade if something does not work well, tell us in the forums and we can help find other drivers or software that you need.

  For reference, here's your specifications.

• CS6 Fireworks won't let me change the type of

  Long story short: until a few weeks ago, Fireworks CS6 worked fine on my iMac, with the rest of the CS6 (ID, PS, DW). The computer started having problems, and I discovered a bad RAM Board which was replaced. So I decided to wipe the drive and do a fresh reinstall of the OS and all software. No problems.

  Except this one major: CS6 Fireworks no longer allows me to use the text tool. Try to select an area of existing text, or try to create a new text box results in a spinning beachball.

  I use Linotype FontExplorer X. Thinking that it might be a problem with a glitch somewhere in the libraries of fonts (which I had copied on the disc clone I did before erasing), I served them ALL and spent two hours to recreate them from scratch. Then in FW expecting it to work. No change: spinning beachball.

  I deleted and re-installed FW completely. No change: spinning beachball.

  I went to use FW CS5.1 and it let me not again change the text. Hooray, a temporary solution at least stay productive. However the second time, I went to FW CS5.1, exactly the same problem that manifests itself. Spinning beachball.

  I deleted my files preferably of the fireworks at the root level. No change: spinning beachball.

  I'm at my wits end. I have work to do! How can I fix it?

  iMac (mid-2011) 2.5 GHz, 16 GB RAM, OS Snow Leopard 10.6.8

  I solved the problem.

  It cost me money, but I've updated my FontExplorerX software to the current version. Now the Fireworks text tool works reliably again.

  I don't know why it was necessary, because the previous version of FontExplorerX did the job well enough, and Fireworks has never had a problem with it before. But after the download, the question which is stopped, so I guess that the upgrade process must be tweaked in the right place in my system to get the FW to replay nice.

  Just this ad here on a case where someone else has experienced this problem.

• Expand a service end of vPC linked clone disc

  We have the following text:

  vCenter Server 5.0.0 Build 455964

  vSphere Client 5.0.5.0.0.37933

  Version of VMware Tools 8.6.15 build 2495133

  The image of Windows 7 has 2 discs of interest:

  C:\ OS (provided slim 30 GB)

  Profile of user D:\ (10 GB persistent independent disk)

  The issue is that the C drive is 30 GB thin Provision in total, with 6 GB of free space.  I have disabled disk defragmentation, System Restore is 3% (900 MB).

  The only thing that is installed are the Windows updates on patch Tuesday.  The programs we use are static they don't really change.

  So no new installations of any kind except updates of Java and Adobe.  I have install a piece of software once a year.

  Users do not have the rights to install the software on their virtual machine.

  I regularly run cleaning disc for drive C, but is that not a lot of space is recovered.

  I would like to extend the C drive of the 30 GB, but the option is grayed out for the vPC (see screenshot).

  I went into the display of VMware administrator to see if I can expand the C drive on impossible to locate the area where I can expand it.

  I do not see the area where I can expand the persistent drive, but not for the OS disk.

  The plan was to extend the OS disk, then recompose the specific office according to the needs arise.

  Can you please indicate if it is possible to extend the 30 GB VMware View operating system?
  This vPC is also a linked clone

  Unfortunately Yes. Alternatively, you can create a complete clone of the current state of the virtual machine and use it as a new basic disk. This can not only be faster than to delete all snapshots, but also allows you to maintain the State of the current virtual machine in case you need more later.

• Using Linked clones with a data disc?

  We expect on the creation of our BASE image with a 50 GB C:\ drive.  For the moment, we will not use Thinapp, so the few apps we need for our people call center will be installed on the base image. We also plan to use the profile unit of Liquidware Labs and will use linked Clones.  My question is, do I have to create a data disc (D:\) to install Apps or just expand the C:\ drive?

  If the user data (documents, computers of desktop, thems and local profiles) will store locally and needed to preserve for the future and use the redirection of the user's data and set separate drive for this.

  In the case where the user data is Vagabond (stored and shared in the Center), then do not use that feature, simply create a bigger drive C.

• VM converter clones the disc in full AND OS?

  Hello. I am wanting to use VM converter to clone my Windows laptop HARD drive and move it in VMWare Fusion on my Mac. My question is, can I clone the disc in its entirety, including Vista Basic and move it? I was counting on the use of an external drive to transfer files. Thanks for any help.

  Yes. However if it is an OEM must be a reactivation because the hardware has changed.  So, if you have an ELA your ok button, otherwise you may be out of luck
