Formatted hard drive. Need help.

• Replaced the hard drive, need help with drivers and utilities!

  Hello

  Yesterday, I replaced my old hard drive with a new WD, and I reinstalled Windows Vista.  Everything goes fine until I jumped in the utilities and drivers (Resource CD) supplied with the laptop.  I guess I thought that the CD all the work, would do to reinstall all the necessary drivers and utilities...  Now I'm stuck with a laptop computer that cannot connect to the internet, and the screen is too big.  I don't know there is more wrong with my laptop than meets the eye.  On the CD of drivers & utilities there the list of drivers and some of them have check marks, others do not.  I tried following some online course on which those who/what order to upload, but I don't even have some recommended drivers on the Dell.com site (specific to my Inpiron 1545 model)!  I know that I could download them immediately the site, but I don't even have wifi to do.

  In addition, I read the performance of a Dell Factory Image Restore and I tried it.  When I get the black screen with no option, I have to click on "Repair computer" but the option is not available either... I thought that maybe it would be an easy way to restore my laptop (readers and all) to the original settings.  Maybe the option is not there because my computer is practically empty, with nothing to restore? All I have on my laptop at the moment is Windows Vista 64 bits and drivers a couple that I don't know much.

  Bit of help and advice would be great.

• Replacing hard drive; need to backup Office Outlook 2007 files

  Can someone help me?  I need to backup my data on an external drive that my HARD drive needs to be replaced. It will be available soon and will be a "clean install". "."  How to save and backup my Office Outlook 2007 (pst) files to the external drive and reload the disk hard drive once the technician installs and I reload all the programs?    I found an article stating that I have to change the Outlook data folder to a name I will recognize later.  I did it; tried to follow the steps and it impasse. what I am doing wrong and how can I be sure that data gets saved to disk in position correctly to re - install once I am in service again.

  I don't really know what that NTI, but I would not trust this application with your files. Back up your files REGULARLY, it's something you can do already, not only to replace your hard drive. And that means understand where all your important files and using an easy to keep on a separate hard drive backup program.

  = Backup all important files are on two drives separated at all times

  Archives = backup files to a permanent location, such as a CD or DVD, in a location separate from your computer.

• Compatible HARD drive need for my Satellite L655 - 1 6

  Hey everybody,

  my 4 year old Satellite L655 1 g 6 has recently had some problems and the hard drive needs to be replaced.
  Does anyone know about a cheap substitute that should not necessarily be the Toshiba?

  I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
  Would be very grateful to hear some opinions/suggestions :)

  -Thanks in advance

  In general you need is of 2.5 HARD drive with connector SATA and these drives, you can find in every store of the computer. Pick up some info on the proposed models, capacities and prices so that you can make a decision that you want to buy.
  > I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
  In my opinion it's the wrong opinion. Using SSD increase you the performance of laptop computer s quickly and were very quick machine. One day if you do not want to use this laptop, you can remove the SSD and put old HDD inside. SSD can be used on the new machine.
  For me, it's the best solution for you.

  Last year I've improved my 4 years old P500 with SSD and I m very happy with it. The price was only 149 Euros. It's OK price. Change the HARD drive is not complicated and you can do it alone.

• Installation of SP3 on a newly formatted HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a few questions about the installation of Windows XP Service Packs on newly formatted hard drives.

  Recently I have formatted a new HARD drive and installed Windows XP Home Edition. In order to be upgraded to Service Pack 1 to 3, it is recommended to connect to Windows Update and download and install it from there. I did this and was prompted to install Service Pack 2. During the last steps of the installation (I think that durng the procedure of 'start process'), I lost Internet connectivity and was impossible to reconnect (I use a USB dongle. I think that a virus infection is interfering with the connection). That's why I had to restart my computer for the installation could be completed, but it seemed to be successful that I was able to reboot without any problem. I assume that the installation had actually finished and it was just reset stage that was interrupted.

  Question: even if the installation of Service Pack 2 has not finished and my machine seems to be fine, reinstall Service Pack 2 in order to ensure that it is completely installed?

  Question: Why should I install SP2? If Service Pack 3 contains all fixes and features of all previous Service Packs and it is acceptable to upgrade to Service Pack 1 to 3 directly, why didn't Windows Update invite me to install Service Pack 3 instead?

  Question: I have found a manual download of Service Pack 3 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=5b33b5a8-5e76-401f-be08-1e1555d4f3d4&displaylang=en), but Microsoft strongly recommends that use you it only on machines in a network, and not on a single computer. Y at - it hurt to do?

  A question here, is that if Microsoft recommends that download the latest Service Packs of Windows Update online, so it seems not possible to fully guarantee your Windows installation before connecting the interest for the first time. All the while I'm software download and installation of Service Pack 2, malware, worms and viruses have been infecting my computer (Avast! blocked a malware exploit). So even if I managed to upgrade to Service Pack 3, my machine is already infected.

  Is there a recommended way to upgrade to Service Pack 3 before you connect to the Internet for the first time?

  Thank you

  Tristan

• Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

  Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

  Not directly.

  There is a SMALL chance that if your hardware supports it (unfortunately never say you anything on your PC or BIOS), you can boot from a USB stick or an optical drive and install Windows XP like this.
  But it is unlikely.
  In addition, tell us what you mean by 'windows xp iso file. This is very vague, and we do not know what you are talking about.
  Finally, if you want to ask questions here, really read the answers and recognize them in some way. Here is a link to your other thread:

  Hello

  Recovery disk cannot be used to install an operating system. You can perform repairs to the files that Windows uses to start itself, perform a restore operation using System Restore, and restore your computer in its entirety and the filesystem using backups that you have made previously.

  You need a Windows Vista installation disc to install it.

• Satellite A60-772: What readers need after format HARD drive?

  I would format my hard drive. Should what drivers I have to load after the format? Thank you

  Hello Eliane

  After the installation of the OS, you must install the drivers, tools and utilities. As far as I know with your laptop is also supplied Tools & Utilities CD. This CD contains all this stuff. If you do not, you can download it from the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page support & downloads.

  It is very important to install things in the right order. To make this review please document Instructions of facilities.
