  • 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.

  • How do I change or remove the password disk HARD on my Tecra A9

    Hi all

    I looked for where I could, but didn't find any indication at all, so I'm asking here.

    I have a Tecra A9 in need of resettlement, what I like to do for me.
    I have a very good password on the HARD disk which I do not wish to give. So I want to change it or remove it completely.

    Please someone, how do I do? In the BIOS, I don't see that it has been defined, but all what I try, I can not change or get rid of it.

    Maybe I should add that since the original installation of the PC it was years ago and I don't remember not the 'Administrator' password.

    Everything is under control. I know the 'controller' password and have already successfully removed the BIOS password. Smart TPM is disabled.

    BUT what the disk hard drive password?
    Any help much appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Hello:

    Your BIOS is set to AHCI (or RAID) by default. It cannot be changed.  Look in your device manager and in the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers section, look to see if there is a controller SATA ACHI he.

    If so, you have an AHCI BIOS default.

    If you go further down the line in Device Manager and see a section of storage controllers, click on that, you would see a SATA RAID controller and your BIOS is set to default RAID.

    I don't have your model laptop so I don't know if HP has implemented some models double disk RAID or AHCI.

    So... First, copy your original C:\ drive SWSetup folder and save that to a portable hard drive. That must contain all the files installation for the drivers and the software provided with your PC. You can search this folder for programs that you may want to reinstall after your new SSD drive HARD primary.

    To install W7 on your SSD, check your own install of W7 disc.  Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    Can't answer your question on the dual boot as I never did before.

    It has password always news.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I hope that you use the correct and just HARD drive password because it of necessary to remove and delete the existing HARD disk password.
    If you have forgot the password for HARD drive then the HARD drive should be locked and you would not be able to unlock the HARD drive!

    Generally, the HARD drive password can be deleted in the BIOS.
    Please ensure that another password would be removed too.

    I found a forum thread useful on a password disk HARD similar question:

  • Satellite Pro L20 - disk hard keeps spinning down

    Hi, I have recently updated the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L20, and I noticed that the disk hard keeps spinning down after about a minute, even while typing or surfing on the internet. I checked the power settings Windows XP and have it put on the desk, with the time 'Disable hard drive' set to 5 minutes when it is plugged and 5 minutes on battery (I always use on the same network). I checked the BIOS settings to see if there is something listed there, but there are no settings for hard disk power management in the BIOS.

    Although the turning down of the hard disk does not affect performance, I fear that it may be to focus on rising constant power drive / descent.
    The new version of BIOS is 25 April 06 Windows Bios Update for Satellite L20 (PSL2X), Satellite Pro L20 (PSL2Y) and Equium L20 (PSL2Z)', or a file 2, 20 - WIN.

    I think that it s nothing unusual that the HARD drive keeps spinning down applies none or BONES need the HARD disk activity.
    In addition, the turning down of the HARD drive has no effect from the bottom on the performance of the HARD disk or over the life of the HARD drive.

    I need to redistribute the laptop to another employee, but I need to make sure that no game of passwords of the bios.

    Now that I know what is the existing password, I have reset / removed the user password, eliminating 'password =' fast before the start.

    However, I find no docco to tell me how to remove the HARD drive password. I am always prompted with "password HARD drive integrated =" command prompt.

    Can I put it, I change it. I just can't take it off.
    It's probably somewhere simple, I'm not quite familiar with this model.

    I should note here: I KNOW WHAT IS THE EXISTING PASSWORD, so I'm not a suspect type "how to bypass a password disk HARD unknown?". I just need to know how to, or remove it completely if the new user-to-be is not invited.

    Hello

    You should be able to remove the HARD drive KNOWN password in the BIOS. I put t understand why you aren't able to do.

    About your statement, you can set HARD drive password and change the HARD drive password.

    I think you should try to remove the HARD drive as the master password BIOS password.
    Try to use the Enter key to change the password for the drive HARD and don't anything else type.

    In my opinion what one possibility to remove no matter what password and I think he should functions

  • Compaq presario v6000 v6409tu disk hard bios self-test fail

    Hello

    Windows xp no my pc compaq v6000 not starting and bluescreen showed a couple of times. I ran the BIOS (phoenix) disk hard diagnosis and the test failed. When I opened my HDD I noticed green rust as deposits into the connector on the hard drive. After cleaning with a brush, computer loaded XP successfully. But an hour later, while I was surfing in mozilla suddenly the mouse pointer started late and showed computer blue screen saying that windows has been closed down to prevent damage.

    I would be grateful if someone can tell me if it's a software problem or hard drive error. If I need to replace my hard drive, what are my options, for example. rpm, capacity, provider? Thank you.

    The only way you could have rusted copper into the connector on the hard drive is if liquid got in there so I am reluctant to try to speculate how much damage has been done. I remove the hard drive and connect it to the outside to another computer and run chkdsk on it to see if the drive itself is bad. As long as there is a problem on the part of connector and the interface with the motherboard cannot really trust the onboard hard drive Diagnostics. You could also get an own another new hard drive adapter.

    http://www.eBay.com/ITM/new-Compaq-Presario-C700-F500-F700-V6000-SATA-laptop-hard-drive-connector-/161297513053?PT=US_Drive_Bay_Caddies & Hash = item258e14ba5d

    If it does not turn on the hard drive is bad, you can replace it with any laptop SATA drive no more than 9.5 mm thick.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16822145587

    Above is a good thing. It is slim (7mm) but it will still go into the caddy and connect to the motherboard with the connecting piece. If the hard drive itself is always good, and you replace the connector piece but he always bluescreens, so I would not spend money on a new hard drive. I would say that there was damage to the motherboard.
