How much space do I need to allow for Vista while partitioning the hard drive?

I am installing on a new drive hard and need to partition the hard drive.

I remember he had a certaing amount allocated for vista and before recovery.

Help, please!

Hello

40GBs is the minimum; who will be vey quickly useless.

Recovery partition would have been photographed by the manufacturer of the computer hard disk and you can't replicate that.

You can use all of the hard disk space available to install Vista on.

Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • How to partition the hard drive

    Hi, anyone knows how to disable partition the hard drive? Getting sick of the transfer of information between C: and E: Paulette

    Go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management, disk management.

    Do right click on E a remove it. After that, you should be able to enlarge C with right click and choose the option of not. But you'll have to save files on E first, so as not to lose them.

    If this does not work for any reason, you will still be able to use 3rd programs like partition magic. I've used several times and I am very happy with it.

  • How to partition the hard drive in my satellite M40X-189?

    Please can you advise the team?
    I would like to have the operating system and application programs in a partition and the data I've created in another partition.
    Please can I have advice from the team?
    Has anyone partitioned the hard drive on their satellite M40X-189 and what software did you use to do the partitioning?
    Also, I just defragged my hard drive and the card reader can be seen at: http://www.seniorvalues.org/drive%20map.jpg
    I am curious about the above provision given that free space if 52%, but white space does not reflect this and there is a piece of defragmented files and folders around the middle of the big whitespace at the end of the training I was expecting to be adjacent to the last great defragmented file.
    TIA

    Hello

    I use partition magic to create and manage new partitions. In my opinion it of the best tool if you want to work with partitions.
    I have 2 partitions on my unit. C for OS and D for the 3rd of data and files. In this case if I recover my unit only the first C partition will be formatted.

  • Backup how much space do I need for a complete backup system?

    I intend to make a full system backup (complete with the image of the system) with a Toshiba 500 gig external hard drive I recently bought on Amazon.  I currently have 464,86 GB of free space available on this device (my external hard drive provided with the NTI EZ Backup utility).  How much space will create a full backup on this device?  Or should I simply back up files/folders and create the image of the system on a separate drive?

    Evan

    Hey Evan,

    It depends on the files and folders you have on the hard drive.

    For example: If you have 200 GB of a data value in the C drive then to perform a system image you need minimum of 200 GB of space on the external hard drive to make a system image.

    To learn more about the system image in Windows 7, see the link

    What is a system image?

    Should what backup settings I use to maximize my disk space?

    Hope this information helps.

  • How many installations allowed on 'machine' even if the hard drive is replaced?

    I recently had to reinstall my Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Standard on my laptop even when I replaced a bad hard drive. Now, I find I have to replace the hard drive once more (freezing, tech guys think its hit been around too much). I googled a bit and have read that I can install my (student limited, license)? Adobe software on two "machines". What is a machine? If this is the same computer, it is the machine even if I put a new hard drive in it? In other words, I'll be able to install a third time on the same computer if I did so twice on two different hard drives?

    What you need to do is contact the Adobe Support using chat and ask them to reset your activations.  This way, you have a fresh slate of two waiting for you to use.

    The limit of two machines is a continuous limit, not a time limit, meaning when you change machines you can move your license as needed.  Normally you would disable an installation (by selecting help-> Deactivate), but when a machine dies you lose the ability to disable.  Adobe support can take care of this by resetting activations.

    To the link below, click on the still need help? the option in the blue box below and choose the option to chat...

  • I need to reinstall Windows Vista on a NEW hard drive

    I need to upgrade my hard drive a 500 GB to a 2 TB hard drive. I want to keep the old hard drive as what without having to format. I'll put it on in the case where I never need to access the data that's out there. I have the key Windows Vista Home Basic 32-bit disk and license. Is it possible to just install it on the hard drive again without any license validation error or the old hard drive must be formatted to remove windows. Desktop PC. Thank you

    Hello

    Legally, you must save your data > wipe this most hard > re - install your data, and then use this drive hard as you would normally use an external hard drive. namely for data only.

    One license is for a single installation.

    _______________________________________

    You can have activation issues with the new hard drive and reinstall anyway.

    If you do, then use phone Activation > do not follow Auto prompt > but brace yourself for a real person explain to the.

    Hey LauraR1991

    If you have your acer recovery disks, you need not buy new vista

    you already have a license of vista

    The acer recovery disks are to reinstall vista on how you purchased your computer

    If the disks from acer that you aren't below recovery disks link is to buy vista directly at acer recovery disks

    they sell them at a nominal cost

  • How much space for Time Machine backups

    Hello

    Is there a rule for how much space you may want to allow for Time Machine backups?

    I would like to partition the drive to have a room reserved for Time Machine back ups only.  I realize that it is a personal preference.

    Each individual backup occupies approximately 790 GB.  But somehow I have 6 months of backups that supposedly take up only 880 GB on the disk.

    At this time the backups of my other drive back to 6 months in time.

    Fortunately, I never had to go back a few more days to recover a file.

    Is there a reasonable amount of space to allocate for backups, based on current usage of disk?

    Thank you

    Minimum would, of course, the size of the internal drive.

    Triple the amount if you want a value years from TM backups

  • Snapshot - how much space will be used?

    I have a Windows SBS 2003 VM (on an ESXi 5.0.0.0, 504890) who will be migrated to SBS 2011. Before you begin the migration process, I would like to the SBS 2003 VM snapshot. Just in case the migration fails, then I can go back to my old snapshoted version. Before the migraiton, all changes to data (e-mail, files, printing) will be adopted - essentially the network will be put on hold. The current virtual machine is approximately 500GB, how much space do I need to calculate if I capture instant VM?

    Thanks for your comments.

    Concerning

    Oliver

    The size of the snapshot starts with 16 MB.

    The size depends on the I/O of the changes inside the virtual machine.

    But the size of the snapshot never goes beyond the size of the disk of the base.

    Anything else is guess.

  • How much space is required on C:\ with installation CC Illustrator on another drive?

    I have creative cloud > [Settings] > Preferences Apps > Installation location set to a folder on a standard hard drive on my system which has Oceans of space to this topic.  All my creative Cloud apps have installed very well about it except for the Illustrator CC.  Whenever I try to install Illustrator CC I get an error message that says:

    "Not enough disk space to extract the files.  Please free up space on C:\ and try again. (EX10)

    The problem here is that my C:\ is on an SSD, so space on this dirve is tight.  Despite this, I started the process with more than 1 GB of free space (if I had to guess, I'd say 1.5 GB), and now, after the failure, I 539 MB of free space.  How much space should I erase on C:\ for my Illustrator CC installation actually works?

    Simply redefine the variables 'Temp' of your system. My computer--> right click--> Properties--> Advanced--> Environment Variables system settings. Similarly, move your user folders to the other drive through your user management. You try to attack the problem in the wrong place. Flush out just the remnants and temporary files never will free enough space, if you're really that tight.

  • Transfer of files from the old HARD DRIVE to new computer without an old computer. (He's dead - can not use) I have the hard drive, but need help to transfer my old files and settings.

    ·        My old Win XP computer died - it is completely unusable. I bought a new PC with Win 7 Pro and 1 TB. I still have the old HARD DRIVE (250 GB) which I have attached on the new computer using an external enclosure supports SATA drives. The external hard drive is connected to the computer in USB 3.0. I checked that the new computer can see the external hard drive. (I also used for backups by changing the hard drive with a 2 TB drive 'mass storage' - that works.)

    I searched the internet for possible solutions and found no help. If the transfer of files from Microsoft would change the disc to analyze, it would be simple. But if I select the OLD computer it scans the disk I'm on (new) - automatically.

    Is there anyone who has had the same problem? He must be because computers die all the time and people buy new computers - who then, somehow, they get the former transferred files. I could do it manually, but that wouldn't change the settings. Last resort would be to buy an old computer XP (SATA), replace the drive. Transfer the files, and then sell this computer.

    You may be able to recover your data files, but I hope that you will set up your new system to automatically backup a second internal hard drive or an external USB hard drive.

    This suggestion may not work, but it's worth a try. Buy an external USB drive enclosure. They come in two sizes 2.5 "for the portable computer drives and 3.5" for desktop disks. You can purchase adapters for 3.5 "envelopes so that they can also be used with a portable player. Place the hard drive in the enclosure and connect to a USB port of another computer. Several hard disks are more able to start, but the contents of the disc can still be accessed, read and copied from the disk because you do not use the operating system on a failed disk.

    Here is an example of the type of device, I suggest:

    You need only to the speaker, that you see are not necessarily more expensive. Thereafter, you can put an old hard drive usable, an abandoned because you need a larger drive internal, in the enclosure and use it as additional external storage.
