Gateway DX4300 - how to restore the drivers to the folder window.old.

Hi, I just reformatted my PC. lost all my drivers and ask you how to restore the drivers to the folder window.old. My PC is a gateway dx4300 built in maps Ethernet and video. Unfortunately the gateway doesn't have these drivers.__Thanks.

Oh, how it would help if truly comprehensive published Gateway of material form for a machine... :(

I only am not surprised you found the driver for the modem didn't work - the only one I found was a Vista driver in proportion; Server 2 k 8 x 64 probably don't like that too much.  ;)
But, a little research on Google (and, looking at the list of Vista drivers for this machine) does not give something useful: your card network (the thing you need more) seems to be a Marvell Yukon 88E8075 (possibly 88E8071) Gigabit NIC.  These drivers are available directly from Marvell: http://www.marvell.com/support.html
Just select "88E8075" in the menu dropdown part number, then take the package Windows Server 2008 SP2 (x 64).  Install it, get the machine online, run Windows Update.  I am betting that WU will be able, at a minimum, give you work pilots 'real' (rather than the generic or non-existent drivers you have) so that you can sort.
Honestly, I'm surprised that there is no drivers for this NETWORK adapter - it's a fairly common piece.

HTH,
Chris

  • Is it possible to recover files deleted from your Recycle Bin, after the failure of the computer after the backup hard drive contained in the folder windows.old, including system files?

    Very well. My computer is messed up awhile back and my friend saved my whole hard drive, the files system and everything, then wiped and restored, then ALL put in a folder called "windows.old" that I can access my hard drive. So since he has saved the files system and everything, I'll be able to recover my old files I had deleted before it was erased, if (hopefully) they is not replaced? If so, what filepath can I go in?

  • Deleting the folder Windows.old in Windows 7 to 8 afterupgrading

    I've recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and then again to 8.1. A copy of my old windows has been kept on the C drive as old windows, then again in the form of old windows 001. When I tried to delete the first, I made a mistake and changed the permissions of the user: Pauls PC in the folder 'properties '. But then I made a mistake again when I got bored with waiting so that he finishes and you press "Cancel". Yet once, I stuffed up - when I was warned by the pop-up that I can cause some serious trouble if I do not change the permissions back immediately, I ignored it, and now I have 15 GB hard drive that I can't access. The other windows 001 old that I got rid of listening on online forums and creating an administrator account. Can you help me with advice, or I always this hard disk space?

    The built-in system cleaning app allows to safely remove the files, rather than delete directly from the file Explorer.  Here's how:

    1. Press +R to display the run box, type cleanmgr and click OK
    2. Select all types of cleanups to perform, and then click OK to clean the drive.  If you care only cleaning of the update, go to step 4 instead.
    3. When you are finished, press on +R to display the run box, type cleanmgr and click OK once more.
    4. This time, choose "clean up system files" at the bottom of the box first and then recheck all types of cleaning.  He is one who will have the opportunity to "Cleaning Windows Update". The first pass (step 2 above) won't do.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - how to restore the original condition?

    Hello

    My computer freezes for a second or 2 from time to time and Toshiba support told me it might be a software problem. I don't think, because he began the day I bought the laptop and the display driver keeps on the work stoppage, but because I said that if it's a software problem.
    I would have to pay for it, I want to try everything before sending it for repair. This is why I would like to restore my Satellite in its original state as he was just at the moment where I bought it.

    So basically I have 2 questions:

    1 - does anyone have any idea why it keeps freezing on me? And what I should try to do to fix it?
    2. can someone tell me how to restore the laptop to its original state?

    Thank you very much Dina

    Hello

    To determine if it of a software problem or not, you need to restore the factory setting and if it doesn't work you can go to an authorized service provider. They can repair the laptop for you.

    The factory settings can be restored with the Toshiba recovery disc. I guess that your laptop has been delivered with Windows Vista, if you have options to restore factory settings: the Toshiba disk recovery or HARD drive recovery service.

    HARD drive recovery function formats the first partition of your laptop and install Vista again with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba. It is an image that is stored on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder HDDRecovery.
    If you go into the advanced with F8 boot menu after you start the computer, you can start this feature of Toshiba. And then select Repair my computer and some Windows files will be loaded. Then, you can choose the function to drive HARD Toshiba Recovery and follow the instructions on the screen.

    The Toshiba Recovery disk, you must create first, or have you done this yet? Normally, you get a reminder of recovery message after the first start of the laptop that you must burn this disc. Therefore, you must the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and the image in the folder in HARD drive recovery will be burned on the disc. Then you have a startup disk that can restore the factory settings and HARD whole disc formats then back up your data first!
    The recovery disk is necessary if you have a new HDD or Windows start doesn t. Otherwise, you can use HARD drive recovery.

    I hope I could help a bit and now you understand how to restore the factory settings.
    If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

    Good bye

  • Satellite L500 - how to restore the menu "repair your computer"?

    Hello world

    I have a laptop Toshiba L500, Yestaday I tried to restore the system to the factory settings (by pressing F8 at startup high and choose "repair your computer"). In the system has been installed almost, but at a stage of installation drivers to read memory cards and similar - there was a failure (the blue screen and need down) - after that - Windows 7 is not loaded. parsing errors (by means using a floppy disk to another Windows 7 install) says that the registry is damaged, cannot repair.

    but the main problem - when you press F8 at startup upward - there is no MORE menu 'Repair your computer' (!) . It is impossible to start Windows 7 predefined. So there's the hidden sector containing Windows predefined (I saw when loading a disc of hatch - Total order could start - and hidden sector was visible). All files in drive recovery HARD necessary are also available.

    How to restore the menu "repair your computer"? or how it is possible to start Windows predefined without pressing F8?

    > Hidden article exists, I saw it, there are all the files recovery HARD drive (which was in the laptop after buying), but I can't begin to recover Windows because I don't have menu not 'repair your computer' to start the laptop. He disappeared...
    Of course, the flag in the Advanced Start menu seems to be deleted and therefore drive recovery HARD option isn't available anymore.
    Probably the partition has changed.

    But in case of HARD drive recovery files are still available on the recovery partition, you can try to create the USB support of own recovery using of workaround:
