• Why 2 partitions of OS on HP dv9628 laptop computer under Vista Home Premium?

  I was just checking my wife of the older HP Pavilion dv9628nr under Vista Home Premium with 2 HARD drives.  I didn't even know he had 2 HARD drives.  I opened the case to make sure.

  Here is a screenshot of disk for system management.  I have a few questions:

  1. Why is there a system operating on each HARD drive partition?

  2 are 2 necessary and deleted maybe?

  

  Generally however, the C: drive is not always your primary. This may change if based on the installation program. The installer in this book, could be Raid. This is where the 2 drives are used to create a combined drive. Based on the laptop being adverstised as a drive of 240 GB, but with 2 120 GB drives in it. This is most likely how it was setup. To know for sure you'd have to check to see if this feature is enabled in the BIOS.  Before you change any settings that you would like to make sure that you have recovery discs and backed up all the content. As having the OS on a single disk, you will need to disable Raid in bios and probably to format both drives. Then reinstall the operating system on you get (the one listed as C:, to avoid complications).

  This article (from ehow.com) can help with your Bios check, so that you can see if Raid is enabled and if you choose to disable. How to disable Raid BIOS

Now the whenever I plug my ethernet cable in the box, it connects to my router Motorola 5BS101 surfboard, but it does not connect to the Internet. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium. I tried to run malware programs remover, thinking it was a malware, nothing done. I tried to run to remove virus and nothing. I tried to change the IP address to my my laptop was broadcasting, because the internet runs on it, but no results.

• Remote access under Vista Home Premium computer

  All the instructions I've seen for remote access to my computer layout calls for a different Version of Windows. I find it a bit of a rip off. At the time where the user had a little more control of his machine, if he had the guts to try, you could always find a workaround or solution to another way to accomplish the task.

  I wonder: is there a fix for this problem?

  I am taking my current office in the Brazil and by setting up there. I wish I can access it from the United States and the thought that I could put in place so I could do. But I don't want to upgrade to another version of windows on it. I'll try to access using a laptop running Windows 7. can someone help me with this problem?

  Thank you very much for your answers.

  It is a Forum of Vista.  To Windows7 questions, you need to republish your question in the Forums Widows7: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7 where someone who specializes in issues of Windows7 and procedures will be more than happy to help you with your problem.  It is possible that your computer in the States works under Vista, but the computer controlling the process is the initiating access and that is why you need to post on the forums of Windows7 (although you will certainly also have to make some changes to your computer in the States to allow remote access works correctly).

  In the meantime, here is an article that applies to both Vista and Windows7 that could help with the basics: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/turn-on-remote-desktop-in-windows-vista/.  I do not know thay will tell you more and better in the other forum.  BTW, I have no idea if Windows7 supports remote access or remote with antyihing desktop - other than the Windows operating system, but you can ask in the other forum.  I suggest to use the network, Email and online Forum here because it is above all a network problem.

  Good luck!

  A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on the computer (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

• Bar moves (up) to scroll by itself under Vista Home Premium 64-bit

  When you try to scroll a list (e.g. uninstall programs), the scroll bar moves by itself at the top on the list of programs; It also moves upward trying to decrease the volume; during the installation of a program, and then by selecting English as default language (in the drop-down list), the list moves to the top of the available languages (e.g.) in Arabic).
  I tried the pc virus/malware/adware scanning, uninstall programs, running system restore and install the latest drivers for the wireless optical mouse with no luck.
  Any help? Thank you.

  Hi Garthright,

  Get out of your keyboard and wireless mouse, replace the batteries for them.  Find a wired keyboard and mouse working set and test your computer with it.  If she works with wired all then consider to replace or try the wireless set again if you wish.

  Step 1: This problem occurs if the Windows Media Center update process (Mcupdate.exe) cannot access the Windows Media Center data store. You may experience this problem if the data store is corrupted. So, try to rebuild the Media Center data store. To do this, follow these steps:
  a. exit any running instance of Windows Media Center.
  b. remove the mediaCenterDataStore.db file. By default, this file is located in the following location:
  %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB
  c. Click Start, run type, and then click Run.
  (d) in the Open box, type % systemdrive%\programdata\microsoft\ehome, and then click OK.
  e. in the details, click pane right mediacenterdatastore.db and then click on remove.
  f. click Yes to confirm that you want to move the Mediacenterdatastore.db file to the trash.
  g. launch Windows Media Center and check if the problem persists.
   
  Step 2: Scanner of sfc (System File Checker) to find and difficulty of the missing or corrupt system files

• Vista Home Premium with X 200 order

  Hello world. I have a small question regarding my recent X 200 buy. I ordered my X 200 with Windows Vista Home Premium and 1 GB of RAM. I want to move to 4 GB (2x2gb) RAM me when the unit arrives. I would like to know if the Windows Vista Home Premium that comes with my X 200 will be editing 32 or 64-bit. On the order page, there wasn't an option to choose edition 32 or 64 bit for Vista Home Premium (it was for Vista Business and Ultimate however). If the 32-bit edition of Vista Home Premium is the default option, can I call Lenovo for a 64-bit edition? Thanks in advance for your help.

  You don't have to take into account the fact that many programs that run in the 32-bit environment does not automatically work in the 64-bit environment. The reason why Microsoft continues to sell the 32-bit operating system rather than any move to 64-bit is the fact that a lot of programs and drivers do not work in the 64-bit environment.

  If you are adamant that the 1 GB of ram is giving a performance increase then you can try to borrow them a disc 64 bit someone and install it and then use your own OS serial key to activate it.

  I have 8 GB of ram in my T61 with 64 bit Vista and for most cases the increase in performance is almost imperceptible from the 3 GB ram under Vista Home Premium 32-bit for many programs.
