See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

• How to 'release' several successively files from Windows Movie Maker in Win. DVD Maker?

  In Vista 6.0, after having published and recorded segments of 5 minutes of video/photo, in Windows Movie Maker, I don't know how to combine all in creation of Windows DVD.

  First part must be perfectly attached to the second part and so on. So I want to finalize approximately 10 segments on a single DVD saw the end of the previous seamlessly flow into the start of the next and so on.

  Please help me with this project. I would greatly appreciate.

  Thank you
  Ginger B

  Personally... I think that the first step would be to combine the
  clips into one. File WMV in Movie Maker.

  Next... using the following freeware... burn your video DVD.

  (FWIW) It's always a good idea to create a system
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  DVD Flick
  http://www.videohelp.com/tools/DVD_Flick
  (the download is: "dvdflick_setup_1.3.0.7.exe")
  (Mirror download (direct link) is the fastest)

  Save the file to your desktop or a folder on your
  hard drive and install from there.

  Be sure to read the Guide:

  Burn any Format video DVD PC
  http://www.freevideoworkshop.com/dvdflicktutorial.htm

  To create a video DVD base that should play in a free
  permanent drive DVD... try the following...

  First... read the DVD Flick Guide to familiarize
  with the program.

  Open DVD Flick and insert a blank DVD in your drive.

  If the window of Autorun from your computer... just close it.

  Click the project settings button and check... Video /.
  Target format... residents United States... Choose... NTSC /.
  Accept.

  The title button left click Add and navigate to your
  Video clips and select the ones you want on the DVD.

  You can have by selecting one and then use
  the up and down buttons.

  Left click on the button create DVD / OK / Yes / Yes.

  Please wait while the DVD is created.

  When the text "Completed successfully" is displayed you
  DVD Flick can close. Now you can eject your DVD
  and play in your DVD player.

  At some point you might want to buy more
  Advanced Cyberlink, Nero, Roxio, software
  Ulead, etc... but at least it is a start.

  Good luck.

• Re: Satellite M300 - can I restore Vista from Windows 7?

  Hi, my laptop model is Satellite M300

  I want to ask all can I have used the recovery disks that I created last time when I was with Windows Vista Home Premium, to restore it back to Vista after I format my C drive and install the new OS which is Windows 7?

  So, if I start the recovery disks that I created last time and run it. Is he able to restore Grand Vista as the factory setting?

  Hello!

  First of all what model of laptop you have exactly?

  The Toshiba Recovery disk normally contains factory settings, which means that all the drivers and tools they have been delivered with the laptop.

  But normally on most computers laptops only trial version of Office is preinstalled. It works for 90 days, as far as I know, and after that, it should be bought if you want to use.
  Your laptop comes with a full version of Office?

  Good bye
