Do not change the BCD

A friend brought me his Acer Aspire S3 because he wasn't starting.   I found that the hard drive was dead.

We bought a new Kingston SSD 240 GB and got the ACER recovery media.   The computer sees the new hard drive and the recovery media seems to copy all of the files required on the disc.  However when a dialog box appears which says: "do not change the BCD" when you click the ok button in the dialog box the computer restarts and if you try to boot from the hard drive, then you receive a message that says; "No boot device - please reboot".   System restart has no effect.

I hope someone has a solution to this.

Any comments greatly appreciated.

When you run the recovery media, you are presented with 2 options.  We have to get the OS only and the other is to recover everything.   I was choose option 2 and it kept failing.  When I chose option 1, it seems to have worked.  The system was started from the new drive and is installing drivers.

  • I have two problems: 1) a theme that does not change the look of my Firefox at all 2) there is no button 'disable' for my themes only 'delete '. Help, please!

    Okay, so my problems are...
    (1) I downloaded a theme for the first time and when I did, it worked perfectly fine. After updating, I download the theme again and it helped, but the theme will not change the look of my browser. When I tried one of the relevant articles, I cleared my cookies and cache and downloaded the theme (A Blue Fox), installed and turned on, and it worked perfectly fine! I tried to upload another (Pink Fox), one installed and activated, but it did not work. Instead, he returned to the default theme. So I tried to clear my cache and cookies again and repeat the process, but now after downloading, it says "error".... "I don't know if it says"Error Downloading"or"installation error ". Now, I tried to download it again after turning off my computer and turn it back on again, but (today), the two has not applied to my browser. They both had the same look... by default! Please tell me what is the problem!
    (2) in my "Add-ons Manager" page, on the appearance tab, there is no button disable for my modules. Only the "delete" button is present.

    Please help me!

    NOTE: I already tried to reset Firefox, but it does not solve my problem.

    You do not disable a theme, but you choose another theme if you want to change the theme.

    Remove button is for when you no longer want this theme.

    You must select a theme and then close and restart Firefox, if you want to use this theme.

    If this does not work, then you may have a problem with the prefs or something interferes.

    If you don't keep changes after a reboot then see:

    On two laptops of P300, we have a problem that the fn + f5 combination does not change the layout of the monitor.

    If you press fn + f5, you see the bar where the different modes are displayed, but if you release the layout remains the same (laptop as a single monitor)

    Thank you, best regards,.

    Davy

    Hello

    In my opinion the previous action (installation of the catalyst hotkeys and reinstalled the hotkey driver) is the reason why the FN + F5 does not work properly.

    In my opinion, you should clean the registry first.
    Use CCleaner. It s free and cleans up the registry.
    In addition, you must remove the catalyst shortcut keys because this may affect the Toshiba FN Hotkey feature.
    Finally, install the Toshiba drivers from the Toshiba page
    More info (right on the Toshiba driver page), you will find details on the tools simple and drivers and what are they for...

  • Why an amplification of the RAM does not change the index performnance of windows vista?

    Why an amplification of the RAM does not change the index performnance of windows Vista?

    Hello

    I m not very well, but maybe you have more than 3 GB of RAM and Vista 32 bit.
    Usually the 32 bit OS is capable to manage and send only 3.2 GB.
    The more than 3.2 GB RAM will not operating system used and therefore would not increase the index
    In addition the laptop will be not really faster after upgrading RAM. You will notice better performance using applications at the same time, but this does not affect the index of Vista.
    But this is only my personal hypothesis.

    as you can see, the BGP process in R1 receives the correct link DMZ bw but not indeed take...

    can you please help me if I makeover anything in my setup?

    Hello

    Can you please make sure you have a value of bandwidth on ALL your BGP peering physical interfaces? And you can also include the running-config 'router bgp XXXX' out of R1 as you have not understood what we (others are). Just to make sure that you have "bgp dmzlink-bw' configured on all peerings and overall in the process - it will still show in the output of the same community if it does not work on it.

  • getPreferredHeight does not change the height of a LabelField.

    Hello

    I add LabelFields at a screen. I replaced getPreferredWidth and the LabelField getPreferredHeight. GetPreferredHeight however does not change the height of LabelField.

    getPreferredWidth seems to work very well.

    I do not use the default vertical Manager that comes with the screen.

    Ideas/pointers in troubleshooting this would be greatly appreciated.

    -MO.

    Hello

    to change dimensions on a field, you must override the method of layout.

    protected final void layout(final int width, final int height) {
        int yourHeight = super.getFont() * 2;
        super.setExtent(width, yourHeight);
    }
    

    If you want the label is centered vertically, you must override the paint method.
