How to clear the hard drive on c6180

I'm getting rid of my c6180, and I am concerned about information that may be stored on the hard drive... How can I erase hard disk so none of my info can be retrieved later by someone? ....

There is no hard drive on the Photosmart C6180, but there is information stored in non-volatile memory that can be deleted as described here.  The reset will erase personal data in the printer.

    A recent virus attack, my computer has lost some files of the operating system.  With the help of the Lim has provided the recovery disk, which offered ' upgrade/repair' or a 'new installation '.  I chose ' install new ', actually I found many of my files are still there - that means that if a virus has escaped "Detection / removal" will always be there.

    Since you have a Dell and a recovery CD and not a recovery Partition, check how many partitions you need by using disk management:

    In case you have a partition with the operating system and a partition of the utility partition, I would only recommend formatting the partition from the OS. The Partition utility can be very useful.

  • How to access the hard drive USB on E3000? Am I missing something?

    I have my router configuration fine to the internet, as well as the media server.  I can't understand how to access the hard drive of my laptop, however.  The manual says to put 192.168.1.1 in the field the address of windows Explorer, but it gives me just the 'Setup' page for the router.

    Am I missing something simple?  I use Windows XP.

    Click on start - go to start > Run/start search and type "\\192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press on enter and it should ask the user name and password, the user name and password, use "admin" all lower case, and then click Ok... Now you should be able to see your USB... You must make a right click on it and select "Map network drive" and check the Enable box and below click Finish... It will map the USB on your computer... Once done, you will be able to send and receive data from your computer to the USB...

  • Satellite U400 - how to remove the HARD drive password?

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite U400-PSU40E. I put the HARD drive password to test this optoins in BIOS. It woks fine. After that, I remove the HDD password, but when BONES start to start the fist show me black sreen with password and when push enter Os start at startup.

    How to remove this black screen (password disk HARD is clear) before you set a password it is not this black screen?

    Hi iliyan_84,

    You only set the HARD drive password or another password too?
    Normally the HARD drive password can be removed in the BIOS. Therefore, to set a new password and don't enter all the keys. Just press the Enter key to leave the new password disk HARD vacuum box.

    Try to also load default settings in the BIOS and if it doesn't work, you must update the BIOS. You can find the latest version on the official website of Toshiba.

  • How to copy the HARD drive?

    After the failure of my screen the technician replaced twice and is trying to arrange a replacement machine. How can I copy the hard drive and all the settings and software from one to the other. I'll have to return the damaged machine when I pick up a new one from the dealer.

    Hello

    I guess you will get exactly the same model of laptop. Right?
    In this case I would not copy the entire contents of the HARD drive to another HARD drive, but I would just swap the drives.

    I guess this would be the simplest 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.
