How do you reinstall the OS disks?

Hi everyone, I am selling my old Mac, I have Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.3) and want to reset by reinstalling the operating system to wipe on behalf of users, passwords, account e-mail and all other connections, passwords and personal information still held by the operating system.

I deleted all my files and no operating system of the machine. What is the best way to reinstall the OS? The mac has two discs DVD, Mac OS install and install Applications. Thank you very much for your advice. Should I put in and follow the instructions?

I read him erase a drive and install OS X link below but did not understand what they were talking about in many places. I don't know what a "boot disk" or that clears your implementation of disk resources, which made it impossible to follow. If anyone can help or advise me that would be great. Thank you.

Click here and follow the instructions. When you reach step 5, insert the Mac OS Setup disk, restart with the C key or Option key, use disk utility to erase the internal drive and install a fresh OS.

    You have a hard drive partition to do - but you would need to contact/see the FAQ from the hardware manufacturer (HP, Dell, Gateway, Lenovo, etc) to see if and how.

    Otherwise - you might have to order (pay for possibly) the factory restore/recovery of the value of the manufacturer.

    The Satellite A100, I presume that you need BIOS password. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about it. Accredited maintainer Toshiba can remove the password for you.

    Hello

    You can create a Windows 7 installation disc yourself - just download the good Disk Image ( must be the same version that originally came with your laptop - IE Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit ) from the link below and use an app like ImgBurn to burn the ISO correctly on a blank DVD - a guide on the use of ImgBurn to write an ISO on a disc is here.  These Images are clean and a well respected source, however there are only limited versions available.

    Windows 7 sp1-iso-official-32-bit-and-64-bit

    Use the disk to perform the installation, enter the activation key of Windows on the label of the COA at the request and once the installation is complete, use ' 'phone Method' described in detail in the link below to activate the operating system -this made method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who want to just have a new installation of Windows 7 without additional software load normally comes with OEM installations.

  • How can I reinstall the RTL 120 BPL file?

    Original title: rtl 120 bpl

    How can I reinstall the RTL 120 BPL file

    Rtl120.bpl file has Nothing to do with Microsoft Windows.

    It's just a B orland Precompiled Llibrary file with a third party software provider.

    File rtl120.bpl Embarcadero Technologies and is installed on your system to third party such as software packages:

    AVG (their component PC Analyzer)
    TuneUp Utilities
    Advanced System Care (ASC)
    IOBit Malware Fighter Pro

    For example, if you have installed Advanced System Care and rtl120.bpl file that is installed with it goes missing, the message may look like this:

    ASC.exe - Unable to locate component
    This application has failed to start because rtl120.bpl not found.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    There may be other third-party applications that installs the file, but if you do not provide the exact error message in its entirety person aren't going to be able to help.  And given that the file has absolutely nothing to do with Microsoft Windows, maybe nobody in the Microsoft community will be able to help you without more complete information - like the error message and that if one of these third-party applications (or those like him) you have installed.

    If the system has worked very well and now the file seems to be missing for some reason, it was probably quarantined (effectively deleted) your antivirus/antimalware unspecified software applications.  Perhaps you can also find an updated file in quarantine and he unquarantine.

    With too little information provided, you can expect only theories and speculation about what the problem is and how to fix it.

    If you have one of these types of third party applications or where the product description includes descriptive as sentences:

    cleaner, mechanic, stop at the stand, detective, doctor, heal, optimize, Inspector, clean, tune up, speed up, fix up, compact, compress, faster, power, boost, boost, gum, muncher. Click fix, instant fix, new, intuitive, errors, stops freezes, stops crashing, stop crashes, stops errors, improves, saving you money, risk free, guaranteed or any third-party program that has an icon that looks like a gear, pinion, belt holders, key, key, screwdriver or plunging arrows?

    You may need to uninstall and reinstall these applications (do what the error message).

    If you have this error and none of these products have been installed and reinstall does not help, then you must go to the support page help because the file has nothing to do with Microsoft Windows.

    You might be able to solve the problem to simply uninstall and then reinstall the distressed product (do says what that error message).

  • How can I reinstall the following deleted dll: "system32\wxvault.dll."

    I accidentally deleted the following dll: system32\wxvault.dll

    How can I reinstall the dll above.

    Thank you.

    How did you accidentally remove it and isn't in the trash for restore you?

    It seems that this file belongs to The Embassy Suite from Wave Systems Corp. and is shipped on some Dell computers.  It is not an XP file and has nothing to do with XP.  What a pity that it knows absolutely nothing about your system (thanks, MS Answers).

    I seriously doubt that the restoration of the system will help you, because this file has nothing to do with XP.  That looks like an engineer of 'expert' technical support which is retained by Microsoft wild goose chase.   Anything for a reply with a link to a KB article...

    I do not have this software, but it seems that you might be able to download and reinstall from the site WWW Dell here.

    If you are not sure and that the download is not look right, you could post a message in the forums of Dell support or wave of support.

    E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    Help us understand what "I lost the ability to restore the system" actually mean for you...

    Are you unable to launch/open the system restore?
    Are you unable to create a new Restore Point manually?
    Your system restore calendar is empty dates?
    You preform a restore and get a message that has failed or nothing has changed?

    If the restore in safe mode will not do, keep reading:

    It would be useful to know a few things about your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    What do you see (exactly) that you don't think you should see, and when you see it?

    What do not you think that you should see?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?
