• Creating Installer bootcamp on the external hard drive instead of the USB partition?

  Hello

  I have a MacBook Pro 2012 and mountain LIon. I want to install Windows 7 via bootcamp, but my USB isn't enough grand (only 4 GB of free space). Instead, I expect to use my external hard drive. However when I go to bootcamp to create the installation program, it gives a warning that my hard drive will be erased. It is not possible to create the installer on a partition instead of him wiping the entire HARD drive?

  Thanks for the help!

  Boot Camp and Windows supports installation on an external drive. There are specific exceptions in the versions of Windows, see Microsoft for more information on installing Windows on an external drive.

• Satellite L755-154: waste of space of HARD drive due to the second partition

  Hello

  I bought this laptop so far everything goes well.
  However, there seems to be 2 partitions on it, the first is the C: drive that is around 300 GB, but the 2nd partition D: which is again about 300 GB, which has only the recovery drive?

  This seems to be a waste of hard drive space, because I bought it because it had a good-sized hard drive.
  Now, my question is that I have to make a record of this partition recovery, and then re - format both drives and install everything from scratch?

  Also, the recovery disc has all the drivers for all components of the laptop, as well as Windows 7?
  As I bought this form Amazon no windows disk or recovery disk was provided, only the windows 7 serial number.

  Thank you

  > Now, my question is what I need to do a recovery from that partition, then re disc - format both drives and install everything from scratch?

  In General, you should always create a recovery disk.
  If you have created a recovery disc then this disk will help you set the laptop back to factory settings. This means that all the HARD disk should be formatted and would once again create all partitions. This means that you will get these two partitions again.

  If you want to move the free space in partition D to C, then you will need to use a software of partitions. I use GParted its great tool

  > Also the recovery disc has all the drivers for all components of the laptop, and Windows 7
  Yes

  > As I bought this form Amazon no windows disk or recovery disk was provided, only the windows 7 serial number.
  See above, that you create this recovery disk!

• Removal of hard drive which is the main partition

  Hi rolyreefer,

  Many internal hard drives of the riders that in order to configure the main hard drive (master) disk where you install Windows or a secondary (slave) drive, you define where you store programs and files. These riders are of small plastic sleeves that you place on the correct metal jumper pins. For additional instructions, see the documentation that came with the internal hard drive.

  Remove the primary disk may not be affecting the other disk.

  For more information, please see the link below.

• Is it possible to partition the hard drive by using software like Partition Master, install XP and an earlier version of Office on the new partition?

  Partitioning of a Windows 7 computer

  On a laptop Windows 7 HP, it is possible to partition the hard drive by using software like Partition Master, install XP and an earlier version of Office on the new partition? I know I can run Win7 XP mode, but many prefer a base XP environment. Yes, I have new copies unregistered XP and Office 2003.

  TIA,

  Steve

  Besides Partition Master you can also use Windows 7 "Disk Managment" to shrink the partition of Windows 7, create a new partition of the space "unallocated", and then do a formatting NTFS "Full".

• Impossible to expand the C partition after the reduction of the DATA Partition

  I dropped my DATA partition to increase the size of my partition Vista (c), but I can't extend C: (as far I understand it) because it is more than a single partition to the right.

  I can reformat the free space and I have another partition, but I would rather extend C:
  Is there a way to do this?

  Also, I wrote my recovery disks, but the DATA partition again should he be there? Also if you do not delete the DATA partition and that do it again you?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  The problem is that your data partition was created after the C partition.

  If you reduce a partition, the free space appears after the shrivelled partition and so you can not add this free space to the other partition of C that is placed behind the partition Data (D).

  The only way to expand the C partition is to delete the partition D and then to add this free space to the C partition, but I wouldn't delete the DATA partition because it has a record of recovery that is necessary to create the Toshiba Recovery DVD

  But if you have already created a Toshiba Recovery DVD then the deletion of the DATA partition is not a serious problem because the Toshiba Recovery disk would format the whole HARD drive and would create 3 new partitions (hidden WinRE partition, partition C system, DATA partition).

• Re: Unable to run the HARD drive recovery in the Tecra A11

  My laptop is a TECRA A11 - 1 8 PTSE1E-07-J044AR with processor i5, 4 GB RAM and running Windows 7 64 bit. Recently I had a problem with one of the user (desktop profile) profiles and has not been able to create one despite several attempts, so decided to reformat to the factory settings. But nevertheless I tried the procedure, he went only up to the Boot Manager settings. After that, the warning screen never comes to the top and the laptop eventually normal startup.

  So I decided to ignore the recovery of HARD drive and installed Windows 7 32 bit through a CD of formatting of the main partition to C: drive, but keeping the recovery partition, just in case. Now, even if Windows installed fine, however, none of the drivers (LAN, WiFi, video, sound, etc.) are installed.

  Now my questions are:

  1 can I reinstall my old Windows 64 bit through the recovery of HARD drive? If so, how?

  2. can I continue with the newly installed 32-bit Windows and just install all the necessary drivers and utils from Toshiba? If so, where the sources?

  Would be grateful for any help.

  > 1. Can I reinstall my old Windows 64 bit through the recovery of HARD drive? If so, how?
  After the clean version of the OS that it is not possible to install the recovery image using recovery option of HARD drive due to lack of repair my option computer start-up advanced options (F8 at startup).
  You can install recovery using recovery DVDs image only. Did you create this recovery disk?
  > 2. I can continue with the newly installed 32-bit Windows and just install all the necessary drivers and > Toshiba utils? If so, where the sources?
  Of course you can do it. If Win7 32-bit is supported for this laptop model all the necessary drivers, the tools and the utilities that you can find on the download page of Toshiba - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

• How to set up Time Machine via a HARD drive connected to the USB port on the router?

  Hi all

  I have an Arris Touchstone Data Gateway DG1670A/TW for my internet / wireless which was provided by my ISP.  There is a USB port at the back of the router and I was wondering if I could connect an external HARD drive to save the two Macbook Pro that I have in my house through Time Machine wireless?  If Yes, could someone provide me the details regarding how to set this up properly?

  I too, was thinking about making a 4 TB HARD drive - 2 and wanted to partition so that half of it would work for Time Machine and the other half I would be able to store photos that I take on my digital SLR and are in Lightroom.  Could this be a problem at all? I partition? or Time Machine just to use the available space and delete older backups to make room for additional photos?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  A device third-party network attached storage (NAS) or a router is unsuitable for use with Time Machine.

  Apple has published a specification for network devices that works with Time Machine. No third party provider, AFAIK, does meet this specification.

  Apple does not endorse any device third-party network for use with Time Machine. See this support article.

  Network backup, use as destination an Apple Time Capsule or an external storage device connected to another Mac or a 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only 802.11ac base stations support time Machine, not older model.

• cannot expand the c partition in unallocated space

  I have a HP Pavilion dv5224nr laptop running Windows XP.  I've been low on disk space, so I came on this forum to find out how to remove the recovery partition, since I have the recovery CD from HP.  Now that I deleted the partition through disk management, it only allows me to expand the C partition in unallocated space left by removing the partition D.  "Extend partition" is not an option in the menu when I right click.  I also tried going through the "diskpart" command prompt, select the volume and him asking to "extend".  I received a message that it was unable to extend the volume.  How can I recover the 12 GB of space on my C drive?  Thank you.

  I downloaded a free utility called Easeus Partition Master and it worked very well for resizing my partition C.  I also used explores the function to watch the 1 gig unknown partition and it wasn't empty, so I left it alone.  Thanks for your help!

• I format an ijnternal HARD drive and reinstalled the OS, now I need a .pst file that has been no backup

  I format windows XP and create the new partition on the HARD drive, then I reinstlled OS, but user not taken backup of .pst files, so now he asked because it is so it is possible to recover the .pst file from the HARD drive.

  Hello Jacqueline.

  You can probably recover some data if you do not have a full format. Search for recovery software after formatting or try a demo of databack link: http://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-software.htm

  Make sure that you do not make new files or download / copy anything on the hard drive to reduce the chances of the excessive write current .pst file.

• How to activate the faults COMMITTED to an internal SATA hard drive, but not the other, on Vista Home Premium 32-bit?

  I have a set of 17-inch laptop 2008 which contains two hard drive bays internal, purchased in June.  It came with a single hard drive (traditional spinning disc).  It is running Service Pack 2, Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit.

  My SATA controller is an Intel 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M family); I think it's a first-generation SATA controller (1.5 Gbps).

  I received recently a 160 GB Intel X - 25 M SSD (second generation SATA, but it is fully compatible with the first generation controllers, without additional or jumpers configuration) as a gift from my wife.  I removed my first hard drive completely, installed the SSD in the main Bay and installed Windows, drivers and the Intel SSD utility.  I then reinstalled my HDD original in the second span, completely wiped and reformatted it as a partition; It currently contains my music and other multimedia files.

  The utility Intel SSD tells me I should activate DIPM for my SSD as opposed to HIPM.  This seems to take a bit of tinkering to make Vista, and my situation is further complicated by the presence of my HARD drive (original) secondary, which prefer to use HIPM.

  I read the article on the Microsoft Web site on editing the registry to activate the misconduct, and it's something I would feel comfortable doing. However, I don't want my SSD to use DIPM, my HARD drive is expected to continue to use HIPM, and I was afraid that the proposed fix would allow the misconduct for all readers.

  Could someone let me know how I can activate DIPM for my SSD while continuing to use HIPM to my HARD drive, I'd be very grateful.

  EDIT: My Maintenance of SSD utility said simply that the State of the settings DIPM/HIPM "could not be determined." if Vista automatically selects the correct setting and the SSD utility does not just understand that, which makes my life a lot easier. but it would be nice to know for sure, so I can forget it all (if Vista already defined for me) or change the setting (if Vista did not automatically choose food appropriate for each disk management mode).

  You will need two SATA controllers: both on board or an edge and the other on PCI - E.

  Configure one who does not need TRIM/DIPM (do not use a SSD) as non-AHCI (compatible IDE/ATA-6) in the BIOS and the other (where TRIM/DIPM will be used) as AHCI.

  Connect the drive to which you DIPM AHCI controller. See http://www.abxzone.com/forums/f155/tip-how-enable-dipm-ssds-windows-120968.html for more information.

• Can I shrink a logical drive and not the extended partition to a bare metal restore to a smaller drive?

  The current configuration is a Dell T310 with a S300 controller, with all locations 4 hot filled with SAS drives.  The operating system is SBS 2008 (2008 Server/Vista), I intend to change the controller of S300 (software) controller, a controller (hardware) H700.  My concern is that the H700 brings readers a little smaller in size.

  The typical arrangement of Dell's diagnosis, followed by a recovery partition partition (E :), followed by the system partition (C :), followed by a partition with a logical volume (d).  If I use Diskpart to shrink the D: 'partition', he let me with free space, not allocated.  Thus, it effectively reduces the logical drive, and the extended partition stays the same size as it was, with no way to reduce it.

  The question is, if I shrink the logical D: drive and not the extended partition and then get backups of the system, I'll be able to a bare metal restore on the smallest virtual disk of the H700?

  That's what I did:
  -Released the S300 controller and 4, 450 GB, 15 000 rpm Cheetah RAID-5
  -Replace the controller H700 and 2, 2 TB 7200 RPM in RAID-1 Constellations

  Results:
  -Eliminates the possibility of falling on a disk space issue when restoring
  -Increased the amount of available disk space.
  M ' left with 2 free hard drive for future expansion bays.

• then I just remove my hard drive without crashing the system

  I just back up files on the HARD drive. There is no system files or programs on it. Can I remove and replace it with a bigger memory HARD drive, without crash the system?

  Yes, you can remove the HARD drive without crashing the system by closing the PC, unplug the power supply from the socket and then remove the HARD drive.

  Please note that the physical HARD disk is different from scores.

  Hard physical HARD drive or disk drive is the hardware component for storage. The capacity varies.

  A HARD disk cannot be used directly when it is connected to a computer, that's why storage units with file tailored to the needs of the system to create, known as partitions.

  A partition can be a complete HDD (for example, if you have a physical HARD disk and you have only one partition C:\) or may be more than one partition of a physical HARD disk (for example, if you have a HARD physical disk and two or more than two partitions, such as C:\ and D:\).

  Therefore, you can check for the exact physical HDD and then remove it. To do this, you can go to the computer-> storage management. Check the link for more information:

  http://www.7tutorials.com/how-manage-your-disks-using-disk-management-utility

  This will show you the number of physical drives present in your PC and the partitions present in each HARD drive. So, once you confirm the HDD backup and partition (make sure that there no Windows installation, as says iFuton), you can shut down the PC, unplug the power supply and then remove the HARD drive.

  [Please note that you have nothing to do in the management of the computer, except to check the partitions and hard drives (denoted as disk 0 disk 1 and so on for disks hard physical as well as the corresponding scores appear accordingly)]

• How to make a temporary directory on my HARD drive to save the downloaded file?

  I need to download the updated printer drivers and the first thing I need to do is to create a temporary directory on my hard drive to save the downloaded files.  My operating system is Windows 7, the 64-bit version.  My printer is a brother model MFC - 240 c.  (That copy, fax, scan and has Photo Capture).

  I had a stroke and lost my short-term memory and can not remember what whether computers or at least, not a lot.  If you know how to do this, be very specific with your answer as I print it and use it as a guide I'll follow to the letter.  I'm sure that it's the easiest thing, but I just can't remember how to do it.

  You shouldn't really need to create a temporary directory - especially for the Brother printer drivers.  You can download it at any place that you can easily find (like the office).  Then double-click it to run it (run) on it and let it install.
   
  I realize has their instructions (probably the ones found here<-- that="" is="" a="" link)="" say="" to="" download="" the="" file="" to="" a="" temporary="" directory="" -="" but="" i="" just="" downloaded="" the="" file="" you="" need="" (mfc-240c-inst-win7-a2.exe)="" and="" double-clicked="" on="" it="" and="" it="" doesn't="" have="" to="" be="" anywhere="" special. ="" it="" will="" 'extract'="" to="" the="" native="" temporary="" directories="" as="" needed="" (nothing="" to="" be="" concerned="" with)="" and="" then="" ask="" you="" to="" choose="" a="">
   
  

  Which I suppose you want to English (as shown), and then you click OK.

  He then expand some additional files and then ask you to accept a license agreement (I suggest "Yes" If you want to go further):

  

  In your case... choose 'Standard' and click Next and continue in this way until it is installed.  Then (once Setup is complete and closed) you can restart the computer (first and foremost) and then delete the original file you downloaded (MFC-240 c-inst-win7 - A2.EXE) on your desktop (or downloads, etc.)
  
  You should get through it.
