You can back up YOUR personal files and any other important file to cd/dvd, USB keys, disk drives external hard usb.

then buy windows 7 (or 8 coming soon on October 26, 2012) of microsoft software provider/reseller approved as newegg (www.newegg.com) or tigerdirect (www.tigerdirect.com).

new installation and activation of windows OS will just be a piece of cake (for a computer modern at least).

clean install = wipe your hard drive (full format/quick format deletes all data from the hard drive)

  • How can I find deleted windows printer

    Deleted printerby windows error, where can I find to reinstall

    Hello

    Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll certainly try and help you in the matter of fixing.

    You can try uninstalling the printer and then reinstall them.

    Step 1. Uninstalling the printer.

    1. click on start, point to settings.

    2. click on Control Panel.

    3. double-click on printers.

    4. click on the Lexmark printer and then click on Delete on the file menu.

    Click Yes.

    On the file menu, click Close.

    Step 2.

    Installation of the printer.

    Make sure that the USB cable is connected to your computer and your printer. Peripheral USB work differently than older devices and generally need to have
    drivers installed before you connect the appliance.

    1. If you have a Setup disk, insert it into the drive. There is an installer provided, whether to run or run here. Follow his instructions, and it should take care of the installation of your printer in a few moments.

    2. If you don't have an installer, plug the USB cable into your computer and your printer. This should trigger the Add New Hardware Wizard.

    3. click Next and select search for the best driver for your device. Click Next.

    4 uncheck all options except specific location. Click Browse. Navigate to the disk, CD or the directory where your printer drivers. Click OK, and then click Next twice.

    Note: You can download some drivers on the web. Visit the web site of the manufacturer of your printer or see where to find the driver updates for my

    Windows computer?

    5. After all the files are copied, click Finish.

    6. turn on your printer. Windows should detect the presence of the printer and complete the installation. If the option to print a test page is available, do. This will

    confirm the installation. Click Finish.

    You can also go through the article and check if it helps.
