• the win xp operating system reinstallation

  My computer from netbook hp mini 110 refuses to play DVDs I tried 3 different external drives, several DVDs, several dvd players, this problem is intermittent. Gratiously provided here and by a service tech solutions seemed to work at first, but the problem comes back. Download of codecs K-lite has failed. Of course, I'm beinghaunted by the Ghost in the machine.

  Since the problem is intermittent, I think my only option at this point is to wipe the hard drive and reinstall the operating system. HP has no disks os suply with unit when buying. Where can I get the os disks now? This computer is well after the expiration of the warranty. Thanks in advance for any info.

  Don't worry if you are in the United States, then you can call at 1-800-474-6836 for order recovery disks for your PC... they are cheap...

• How to increase disk space without guest operating system reinstallation

  Hello

  I take advantage of VMWARE with linux host and vista 64 comments, but I encountered a problem, running out of disk space.

  During the installation of VISTA, I chose 25 GB of disk space, as recommneded by IG of installation).

  Now I need more space.

  According to the virtual disk manager, I did

  VMware-vdiskmanager mydisk.vmdk 40 GB - x

  increase to 40 GB. It seemed to work, as I received a message,

  "Disk expansion completed successfully."

  Now "The VM setting" windows says HD 40 GB. But internally under VISTA, disk space is always 25 GB. In fact, the size of disk file (view on the side of linux) is only 22 GB. No idea how to increase disk space. He must start from the installation, but it's a little painful.

  Thank you.

  If the guest is Vista or Windows 2008, then you should be able to extend the partition while the system is running.

  Take a look at this article: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial133.html

  Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 won't let you do that, while the disk is online.  Vista and Windows 2008 changed things.

  For versions of Windows Vista/2008, look for the Dell ExtPart.exe utility, as it will do the job for you.

  See you soon,.

• The Portege 2000 via PXE - LAN operating system reinstallation

  Hello again,

  So as said before I'm trying to reinstall Win XP from the recovery provided CD.
  In fact, I have 4 CD: one that contains only Windows 2000 Pro and 3 CD containing Windows 2000 and Windows XP Pro. Of course, the 4 CDs were shipped with the computer.

  I tried via the floppy and CD-ROM drive that does not work (see previous section), but I also tried via PXE - LAN.
  So I installed a trial version of Windows Server 2003 in 3 months on my desktop and ran the RIS (Remote Installation Service).

  1. He accepted the CD Windows 2000 Professional as a CD of Windows Setup, but when you launch the Portege 2000, after some time, when he looks for the configuration of the computer, I get an error message that the driver for the network card is missing and it may not all go further.

  2. when I run the installation remotely with CD 1 of 3, it does not even recognize as a Windows CD of Installation!

  So, I managed to install a Win XP Family Edition that I run normally on my desktop, but I don't have any driver installed (WIFI, infrared, sound card, etc.) but also, I have only 1 license for the home edition.

  Someone at - it an idea on how to proceed with this method (I mean with the 3 CDs)?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  > Has anyone at - it an idea on how to proceed with this method - I mean with the 3 CD
  Do you mean the Toshiba recovery CD?

  I never tried to recover the image of Toshiba via RIS, but in my opinion that RIS does not recognize the 3 as a Windows CD of Installation CD1 because the recovery CD Toshiba image isn't really a Windows CD of Installation!

  The restore CD contains only the image files. To my knowledge these are ghost files

• Operating system reinstallation

  Hi all

  I have an old HP Pavillion a1120n who settled with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 (no disc available; and no recovery discs too).  Just recently, I wiped and reformatted the hard drive clean because of some problems I had with it.  Can I reinstall XP itself and use the same product key on the COA on the case 25-digit?  I guess I would need to install a XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2, but please let me know if the relocation must be product specific XP in order to use the same product key.

  Hi, Steve:

  That is right.

  The recovery disks will restore the PC it is ' out of the box "what software is the condition.»

  The OS and software that you see listed on the product page, it's what needs to be installed after you run the recovery discs. It must also create a recovery partition.

• Partition Recovery - what operating system?

  I just bought a ThinkPad Edge E431 with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit OS pre-installed, but a free upgrade option to Windows 8 Pro (Windows 8 a license with downgrade rights).  Provided Lenovo recovery Windows 8 Pro (upgrade) DVD discs but nobody knows (or how to find out?) what operating system is contained in the recovery Partition from the factory on the laptop?  I expect that it is Windows 7 but the caveats users defined recovery disc to be sure to do a recovery image before moving on to Windows 8, which should not be necessary if the recovery Partition is Windows 7.

  Mtn-high hi,

  Welcome to Lenovo Community!

  We understood that your request is subject to OS pre-loaded on ThinkPad Edge E431.

  If the system is delivered with Windows 7 pre-loaded OS, then the recovery partition will be Windows 7 OS only.

  We recommend to create the current operating system reinstallation disk, and after you create the recovery disk, you can move the windows of Windows 7 to Windows 8 OS.

  I hope this helps.

  Best regards

• Help to reinstallation of operating system!

  Hi, have a HP laptop and reinstall a hard drive. Do everything with it, now I need to install an operating system. I had windows XP before the computer crashed and don't have a recovery disc, to help or suggestions is appreciated. Thank you, Lisa

  As you don't have a recovery disk, you will need to get either a HP or a version of Windows XP OEM recovery disk and use the product ID at the bottom of your laptop (which, in my experience, becomes unreadable after a lot of used real turn).

  But, given that the keys are locked to certain media, should be an OEM of Windows XP (Home, Pro, based on your license) version. If you were to use a detail or the multimedia upgrade, it would not work with your key, even if it's a legitimate key.

  Stop 0 x 124 is a hardware error
  If you are overclocking try to reset your settings to standard processor and see if that helps.
  If you keep getting the BSOD here are things more than you may want.
  This is usually hardware related, defective heat, memory or processor even if it is "possible" he is associated (rare) driver.
  
  Stop 0 x 124 - what it means and what to try
  Synopsis:
  A "stop 0 x 124" is fundamentally different from many other types of bluescreens because it arises from a complaint of material.
  Stop 0 x 124 minidumps contain very little concrete information, and it is therefore necessary to address the problem as a case of material in an unknown state of distress.
  

  Generic troubleshooting ' Stop 0 x 124 ":

  1) to ensure that none of the hardware components are overclocked. Material which is pushed beyond its design specifications - by overclocking - may malfunction in unpredictable ways.
  (2) ensure that the machine is sufficiently cooled.
  If there is doubt, open the side of the case (be aware of all the relevant conditions guaranteed!) PC and direct an electric fan squarely to the motherboard. Who will rule on most cooling problems (lack of).
  3) update all drivers related to materials: video, sound, RAID (if applicable), NIC... anything that interacts with a piece of hardware.
  It is best to run the latest drivers anyway.
  (4) update the BIOS of your motherboard according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  Their website should provide detailed instructions on the brand and model-specific procedure.
  (5) rarely, bugs in the operating system may cause "false positives" 0 x 124 events where the hardware wasn't complaining, but Windows thought otherwise (because of the bug).
  At the time of writing, Windows 7 does not have to suffer from a defect, but it is nevertheless important to keep Windows up-to-date.
  6) trying (stress) test these hardware components that can be put to the test artificially.
  The most obvious examples are the RAM and HDD (s).
  For the RAM, use diagnostics from built-in memory (run MDSCHED) or the utility memtest86 3rd - party to run plenty of evidence of hours of testing.
  For hard drives, verify if CHKDSK /R finds any problems on (s), including "bad sectors".
  Unreliable RAM, in particular, is mortal, as well as software, and anything other than a 100% clear memory test result is cause for concern. Unfortunately, even a 100% clear result the diagnostic utilities does not guarantee that the RAM is free of any defect - only that none have been encountered during the test passes.
  7) as the last of the non-invasive troubleshooting steps, perform a "Vanilla" Windows reinstallation: just the OS itself without additional applications, games, utilities, updates, new drivers - or ANYTHING that does not come from the Windows 7 disc.

  
  Who stops working mitigate the problem of the 0 x 124, jump to the next step.
  If you run the "Vanilla" installation long enough to convince yourself that not a single 0 x 124 accident occurred, start installing applications and updates slowly, always stopping between successive additions long enough to get an idea of the question if the machine is still free of 0 x 124 breaks down.
  Smash back, obviously the latest addition of software may be somehow connected to the root cause.
  If the stop error 0 x 124 persist despite the above steps, and the equipment is under warranty, consider to go back and ask for a replacement that does not suffer periodic MCE events.
  Be aware that want to perform the subsequent hardware troubleshooting steps can, in some cases, void your warranty:
  (8) clean and carefully remove the dust inside the machine.
  Reinstall all memory modules and connectors.
  Use a can of compressed air to clean the RAM DIMM supports as much as possible.
  (9) If all else fails, start removing items of hardware one by one in the hope that the culprit is something non-essential that can be eliminated.
  Obviously, this type of testing is much easier if you have access to equivalent components in order to perform swaps.

  If you are in the situation to have completed all the steps above without a resolution of the symptom, unfortunately the most likely reason is that the error message is literally correct - something is fundamentally wrong with the hardware of the machine.

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  According to the page of the product HP for your PC, it came not with preinstalled Win10.  THIS means that you have done the upgrade to Win10.

  While Microsoft says there is no risk in the upgrade of Win10, because they allow you to believe that you can always return to your BONES and the original installation program within 30 days, the ugly fact of the matter is that the Win10 GoBack feature turned out to be unreliable - and when she fails, she can let machines in a State corrupted - that does not always happen , but it happens often enough to be a problem and you will get no warning beforehand that he goes to the trash your PC!
  
  If this is not enough, the Win10 upgrade is known, in some cases, corrupt partition recovery stored by the OEM that built the original machine. It's pretty much guarantee that no HP recovery will work.

  The problem you mentioned is usually due to one of two basic problems:
  (1) defective hard drive
  (2) damaged/missing bootloader files
  
  As to the first, please follow the instructions in this link to test your hard drive: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00439024
  
  If that confirms that your drive has failed, then you will need to replace it.  Please report back if this is the case.
  
  As for the second, you need access to a PC for this phase of work in order to create the necessary support to fix your PC boot loader.
  
  Once you have that, please download and create the Win10 installation media from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10
  
  Note that when you download and build install media, the default tool corresponding to what is already installed on your PC (as in home for the House, and 64-bit to 64 - bit).  While you CAN change these settings, are NOT. If you do, the media that results will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code.
  
  Boot from the media that you have created and follow the instructions in this link: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/2294-advanced-startup-options-boot-windows-10-a.html
  
  You will need to go to the Advanced Options screen and click on startup repair.  You will probably need to run Startup Repair three times for him to fix all the boot loader.
  
  Once completed, your PC should start OK.

  Good luck

• After the reinstallation of the operating system on my A30, the player will stop recognizing DVDs

  HI I HAVE RECENTLY REINSTALLED MY OPERATING SYSTEM USING THE DRIVES SYSTEM OF TOSHIBA AND NOW MY PLAYER SD-R2412 CEASED TO DETECT AND KINDS OF DVD.

  AFTER LOOKING AT THE FORUMS, I'M STILL CONFUSED FOR THE ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE DRIVE, THE SYSTEM, DRIVERS OR WHAT.

  ITS AN A30 SERIES PRESENTED AT THE DEC 03. Help, please.

  Hello UCS

  The fact is: If the unit is pre-installed with original recovery media, the installation is absolutely clean and all hardware components are installed with the correct driver.

  What is the State of the drive in Device Manager? The drive is recognized in Windows Explorer? Please check the functionality with the original DVD movies? If there is no success, I guess the drive is faulty, and it is unclear to me that you can remedy this by using a firmware or something like that.

  In my opinion this isn't a problem with the operating system. It may be just a malfunction of the DVD drive.

• Satellite 1800 working extremely slow after reinstallation of the operating system

  I bought a second hand Satellite 1800. I gathered all the drivers on the site of producer s, but when I formatted the HARD drive and installed Windows XP Home edition (my own copy, not any supplied software) the laptop works extremely slow... before that during the process of reading/writing of HARD drive, you could hear that typical for the sound... now the hard drive is completely silent during operation as it's slow as hell...

  I tried to keep up with the web and it turns out that if I reinstalled the OS to Toshiba Recovery CD, it should do the thing... never mind, I didn't know I should have this CD when I bought it... so now I don't... Is there anything I could do about it?
  Help, please

  Q.

  Hello

  As far as I know, this camera comes with W98SE and WME. The recovery CD with operating system Windows XP Home edition for this device is not created by Toshiba.

  You can install Windows XP Home edition and use all the drivers for the Toshiba download site. I don t know how much RAM use this device, but if the unit has less than 128 MB of RAM you can't wait the machine runs fast.
