Help with Hard Drive and registry
Hey, it kinda turns out to be a long and difficult history, but I recently had a small problem that spread to a problem much bigger (and catastrophic).
I had a problem with freezxing on my laptop (HP Pavilion Dv5 with the 64-bit version of Vista I think). I've tried a few things m ais it froze just in case. Finally I found someone who said they ran a registry cleaning program and that did the trick. I tried and I had no more freezing. Unfortunately, I connected an external hard drive and all hell broke loose. It froze and I turned off the laptop. I have it turned on and was greeted with this message:
STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error} The Session Manager failed to create protected prefixes system process terminate d unexpectedly with a status of 0x000003a (0x00000000 0x00000000). The system has been shut down.
I tried to boot in safe mode and found:
STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure} The registry cannot load the hive (file):\SystemRoot\system32\config\SOFTWARE or its log alternative. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.
Then, she went and made the collection of data, and that was all. After that, I tried the boot recovery option and that never worked. I searched internet and found a few people with similar, but never the same questions. Someone, somewhere, says something about execution of system restore after having access to the menu by pressing F8 at startup. I tried. It did not work. I pressed F8 at startup upward and chose the first option. It has established a list of things to try. System Restore (and other options such as checking memory and bring up the command prompt) did not work because the C drive has been used. Large. I tried to use the disks that came with my laptop and I never once found while they were actually useful because I could never the laptop to run.
Now, I wanted to try to use the command prompt. Never really had a chance. Now, when I start the computer I'm greeted by the inspiring message of hard drive are not.
Sweet. Now, I'm a little stuck on what to try. I tried to reset the BIOS defaults and nada. I have no idea what it must try now and would love to help anyone.
I would be very happy and I thank you for your time.
It depends on how much you have to pay to get the new hard drive installed and running. Get a quote for a computer shop trust you. So I think that if the computer has been done what you wanted to do before he went wrong. If it was enough for you and the price of the repair is not too high (maybe less), I would. If the price is more than $ 200, I would start thinking about applying your money towards a new laptop computer, but that cheaper isn't always the best deal. Do some research and try some mobile friends to see if it is fast enough for you and you enjoy the feeling. Stop in some stores that display laptops and taste. Laptops with dedicated video card memory will do better with the games. If the games are starting to become important to you, consider a desktop computer instead of a laptop where you can buy a killer video card. I like the new Ivy bridge to intel for laptops so look for it. This is the new family of Intel processors. I7 Ivy bridge is the finest, then the i5, then the i3. You really need to sit with someone who knows computers and discuss your needs for the future and how you want to use your computer.

Help with hard drives and the "switch" statement
All the
I was wondering if you could please help? It's probably more to do with "powershell" than powercli but are... What I'm trying to achieve is the ability to create a function that runs through all my VM - counts the number of hard drives by VM - crosses EACH hard drive and gives me the ability of each of them. He then returns to a csv file (which iknow how to do). The segment below is pretty well what I want, but I was wondering if there was a way to reduce the amount of code! I tried using a foreach statement, but got stuck (PS - the maximum number of hard drives of our virtual machines can have is 5)
I'm just using a switch statement, because that is what I "thought" answered the problem. However if there is a way I could get the same result without so much 'code' that would be ideal.
Switch ($vm.harddisks.length) {}
($vm.harddisks.length - eq. 1) {
($obj |) Ajouter-Membre Noteproperty 'Disk 1' ($vm.harddisks [0] .capacitykb))
}
($vm.harddisks.length - eq 2) {
($obj |) Ajouter-Membre Noteproperty 'Disk 1' ($vm.harddisks [0] .capacitykb))
($obj |) (Add - Member Noteproperty "Hard Disk 2" ($vm.harddisks [1] .capacitykb))

Once again thanks in advance

Try something like this
$i = 1
$vm. Hard drives | %{
$obj | Noteproperty Add-member ('Hard drive' + $i) ($vm.harddisks [$i - 1] .capacitykb)
$i ++
}
write-host $obj -

Hi guys. I am new to this and in total confusion. I bought a aspire v15 nitro preloaded with win 8.1. I've updated to win 10 but decided to decline to 8.1. Process has failed and I got the blue screen error msg and a useless piece of plastic. I had to buy a set of recovery disks (reluctanlty at a cost of £51 - yes I know stupid me). I tried to reinstall from the disc, but I suck. I have acer cntacted and they have now tell me that I have to first download and install and disk formatting tool. I am confused now totally frustrated and quietly seething. I need help, I'm outta my depth here. Can anyone provide assistance as to what HD formatting of tool to download - what should I do with it to finally lift the laptop and run again? Your help is greatly appreciated!

Portege 3500 - change HARD drive and deal with overheating CPU
I recently bought a Portege 3500 without any support of discs etc. It doesn't have a CD or a floppy disk. It has 2 problems, I want to trouble.
(a) HARD drive is obviously out because it is by clicking on me, and it presents a permanent red section during defragmentation.
(b) the fans are at full power all the time, and the CPU is running slowly.(a) I had a new HARD drive that I reformatted on other laptops. I put a base Windows XP on this HARD drive and uploaded on my external that I attach to the Portege. I used "transfer... Assistant "to transfer files, folders, and settings to the new HARD drive but I don't know how to install the old Windows XP OS Tablet it." I have the product key of Microsoft for the operating system. Any suggestions would be helpful.
(b) I believe that the transfer of heat from the CPU on the radiator is a failure, causing the processor to hot and therefore slows down. I already solved the same problem with a Dell by coating the top of the CPU with Artic Silver 5 paste. I cannot, however to get the CPU in the same Portege so I removed all the screws down. Does anyone know how to split the case without causing damage?
Hello
(a) Unfortunately, but I don t really know how you want to install the operating system without using the recovery CD or the windows CD.
I searched a bit in this forum and found these messages on the installation of the OS on the Portege 3500:

http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6101CA000ER02.htm(b) on the Portégé, you should find the power saver utility. This utility allows you to change the different modes of cooling and processing speed.
In my opinion, you should also check if the fans are clean. Especially the dust and debris inside of the laptop is responsible for cooling not properly of the CPU and other parts.But if you want to know how to remove the covers so I would recommend checking this site. Maybe you'll find something useful.

Problem with new HARD drive and Qosmio Player installation
Hi all
I hope someone can help, I had my Qosmio for 2 1/2 years now and recently had a problem with the hard drive. I decided to replace the hard drive, because it was the fastest solution. The problem I have now is that I can't receive TV on media center. I tried to install qosmio player at the disk to see if it made any difference, but when I run the provided recovery disc software tells me that there is not enough disk space! The laptop came with a 60G hard drive and the new HARD drive manufactured by the same manufacturer is a 150 GB, can someone help me out with this would be appreciated.Thank you
ED.Have you tried to install Qosmioplayer initially, then on operating system? If I remember well, on this first portable Qosmio, it was very important to install Qosmioplayer initially.

Hi, I hope I'm in the right forum! I have a laptop Aspire with Photoshop CS5 extended. The computer's hard drive crashed and so I had to get another hard drive! Obviously as the hard drive crashed, I was unable to disable CS5 extended before the crash. I have it charging on the new hard drive and in the meantime bought a desktop computer in which I loaded CS5. Updates have been working fine on the laptop. I tried to update the program on the new computer, but continue to receive error messages. I have read in any problems and think maybe computer laptop harddrive that crashed had CS5 yet on it, as I was unable to turn it off because I didn't know he was going to crash. I am only able to load CS5 on 2 computers and if it is still on the destroyed hard drive so I'm not able to turn it off and so I presume that is why I can not download the updates on my new computer. I hope someone can help me. I want to keep CS5 on both computers. Thanks in advance bunch Kara

Redesign existing external hard disks and still 6 Lightroom able to find existing photos.
I currently store my pictures on and an external hard drive. Lightroom 6 was not able to find the picture momentarily files. I inserted an external Flash DRIVE after removing the hard drive and the computer renamed the stick with the same drive letter that has been designated by Lightroom to store my photos. I could go into my Windows 10 and reset the player to the letter that Lightroom has given at the beginning of the external hard drive. However, I know this can happen again, if I connect any stick USD or another device, while the external hard drive is not connected to my laptop. I found the information that I can do the new designation of the final drive by choosing a letter it is 1/2 way or higher in the alphabet. I would like to turn an external hard drive on a strong letter, warns we hope this previous problem. My question is, if I already have a lot of pictures on this external hardrive with the designation of the current drive, how it becomes a higher letter and have 6 Lightroom recognizes files, now under the new designation of drive letter without having to go to each photo individually and manually force Lightroom 6 find each photo. It would take more time than I'd like to lose. Is there a way to get just 6 Lightroom to recognize the new disk designation has changed and is able to find all of the existing files?
I have read the ADOBE LightRoom 6 manual and seem not to be able to find anything on how to do it.
Any help would be welcome.
Thank you!
So in Windows, you can select a drive like q letter (or any other letter you want only towards the end of the alphabet)
Then in Lightroom, you can reconnect to the photos on q: the following instructions (see specifically 4 Figure and related text)

I am currently using Lightroom 4. I bought the IMac with the largest memory, but he has quickly filled. To conserve space on my computer, I bought a hard drive and I tried to get my lightroom back up there. (I don't know if I did it correctly or not) Now, all my photos in Lightroom are "offline or missing", and I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I guess you mean not memory and disk space, you want to clear space on the internal drive. Is this correct?
If you have moved your photos somehow (this is not a backup), please follow these instructions to reconnect photos in Lightroom. Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing
In addition, you must (it is obligatory) make real backups of your database catalog and photos, that means accurate identical copies, made by a method automated and placed on a different physical disk than the originals. Lightroom allows you to make backups of your files of catalog on a regular basis, it is an option under the catalog settings. To make backups of your photos, you need some third party software to do.

My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also saved to the time capsule. Everything is in 'Data' when I look through the Airport utility. I think that the information that I've lost are still there since I was a Capsule 3 to.
Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.
The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.
Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...
You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?
By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?
Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.
