• Create a mapping of partition will delete all my data?

  I have serious problems with a hard disk. I have vital data and do not lose them. After much research, I have concluded that the partition plan is down. My question is: create a map of partition will delete all my data? "I found this app ' iPartition" who is able to create an apple partition map but warns me that my data will be lost. I remember from my research that people were saying that the data will be fine. Could someone help me! I think I'm losing it: p

  Creating a new partition map will not physically destroy the data on your HARD drive, but it will make it inaccessible. You need to start some recovery/restore software tools to recover your data. But the 100% success is not guaranteed. You are most probably going to lose some or all of your data in this process.

  Before trying anything, get an another HARD drive of the same size as the original, and create a clone (e.g. using dd in the Terminal). It must be a clone like that would give you an exact copy of the original, including the partition table broke and all the data on all partitions.

  When you have your clone store the original HARD disk in a safe place and carry out all repairs and attempts at recovery on the clone. In this way whatever you do degrades the original HDD already weakened.

  An alternative to the above process would be to find a company that specializes in restoring the data. But who can become very, very, very expensive.

  BTW, if you do not have a backup of your data, it cannot be so important. I suggest that start to implement a backup procedure now.

• Hard reseting will delete all my data?

  I need to know this young man I'm about to reset my HP Pavilion g6 as the IDT Audio and wireless connection button do not work. This will remove all my memory? * I have a lot of photos and programs

  No, it won't... a hard reset is simply hold down power button / stop 30 seconds with no power attached. It is not the same as a reset of the cell phone.

• System Restore will set a BAD_POOL_CALLER blue screen?

  If I do a "System Restore" to start the system and pressing Ctrl F11 to try to avoid a constant blue screen BAD_POOL_CALLER... what will solve the problem? The "System Restore" will erase all my files? I have a Dell Dimension E520 running Windows XP Media Edition

  If you use Ctrl F11, which calls for the restore by Symantec PC Dell and who could restore your system to the as shipped on the status of the plant and you would lose all your personal files:

  NOTICE: Using Dell PC Restore permanently deletes all data on the hard drive and removes applications or drivers installed after you received your computer. If possible, back up the data before using PC Restore. Use PC Restore only if system restore did resolve your operating system problem.

  A Windows XP System Restore does not know or care about your personal files and allegedly, leave them intact.

• All my .exe files have been removed. as well as system32\rundll32.exe... How can they be retrieved when no file opens and the system restore will not work.

  Original title:. Nothing works.

  Looks like you have a virus/trojan/worm infection pretty good...

  Actually, even if you get executables run again - you can be (read as "will be") better off the coast of a new facility.  Wipe and install media with your product key and other serial numbers and installation for other products media you own and restore your last recognized reliable backup for your files.

• System restore recover deleted files?

  Original title: Windows recovery and office productivity.

  Suppose my computer hard drive is partitioned into C:\ and D:\ and sometimes I delete some files (which are not system files) in the drive D:\ (which does not contain the windows), a system restore will recover files?
  Second Question: How she chooses a certain specific pages to assign page numbers to in microsoft office word 2010, assuming that I have a 20 page report and I would like to number the pages of a to the last page without the first page on the computer start?

  System restore do not know or care about your personal files.

  If you accidentally delete a file, and it is not recoverable from the Recycle Bin, there are third party tools that you can watch to see if they can recover your lost files.  In general data from the 'deleted' files remain on the hard drive until the premises they occupy is needed for something else, while the space where your deleted file is crashed.

  Keep in mind that you "use" your disk and read/write data, less your chances of file recovery will be since XP can decide to use this area of the disk where the deleted file is.  So, if you delete something by mistake, you should try to recover as soon as POSSIBLE.

  Some people have good result with this free tool (you can use Google to find others):

  Recuva

  If you want to try it out, install it, make a few temporary files or copy some files somewhere in another folder/location and remove the temporary or copied files on purpose.

  Then see if Recuva will get it for you.

  If you don't like it, uninstall it.  Sometimes I install just to recovery a file (s), then uninstall it when I'm done.

  Hello

  I'm looking at a friends by Satellite C50D-B-120. It does not start. There OpenOffice files on it, but I don't know exactly where. If I try the "Refresh your PC" option troubleshooting it will delete all files?

  Thank you

  Hi Matt

  I found very interesting Toshiba technical support document in the Knowledge Base, and I think it might be useful to you.

  Windows Recovery 8 & repair
  APS2. Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm

  The 'Refresh' option is primarily a repair technique. It is a good method to return your PC to a known good state while preserving your files and a large part of your configuration. With the option "Refresh your PC", accounts of users, data files and some settings are retained on your PC without the need to create a backup or make choices about what to keep or delete.

  This means that the data should not be affected by using the update your PC option.

  System Restore will not work

  Hi FriendFriend,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

  3. you receive an error message when running the system restore?

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state, and then try to clean boot.

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

• System Restore will turn off by itself.

  It happened, but rarely and without apparent cause or sequelae. Larely, it was repetitive, once again no reason apparent, but apparently interconnected with the sudden disappearance of HP Quickplay, also by itself. My two scans, MSE and MBAM didn't pick up malware.

  I have since restored to an even better version PS. My PC works fine without apparent probs.

  I checked SR seconds ago and it is powered and creating RP of as usual.  But an individual isolation of SR is very troubling. How prevent it from happening again?

  Hi Coolnewyorker,

  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community. I understand that the system restore will automatically close on the windows vista computer.
   
  I apologize for the inconvenience and no need to worry I'll be more than happy to help you.
   
  1. What antivirus application do you use on the computer?
  2. did you of recent changes to the computer before this problem?
   
  Follow the steps and check if that helps.
   
  Method 1
  Check the status of the shadow copy volume service. If it is, then try to restart the VSS service and check.
  (a) click Start, type services.msc in the start search.
  (b) search for the shadow copy Volume service.
  (c) make a right click on the Volume Shadow Copy service (VSS) and select Properties. Check if it is started.
  (d) if it is stopped, select start or restart. Make sure that the service is started and set as automatic.
  (e) click on apply and OK, if you make changes.
   
  
  Method 2
  You can also try temporarily disabling computer security software and check if it makes a difference. If the system restore works fine after you turn off the anti-virus, you can contact the manufacturer of security software and check if you need to change the settings
  Disable the antivirus software
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
   
  
  Method 3
  Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  Note: After you have performed the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 7 the link to start the computer to a Normal startup mode.
   
  Let us know the status of the issue and if you need help I'll be more than happy to help you.
