  • Help! -New Dell i3847 - Windows 7 Pro - Dell Recovery Disk Win 8.1 & DBaR don't make a backup of the system

    I bought a new Dell i3847 and it has Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed at the factory on it.

    I wanted to make a complete backup of the system, but the Dell Backup and Recovery software does not allow me to make a backup of the system.  In addition, I was unable to create a system recovery disk using Dell backup and restore.

    I can't use the drive system recovery expected Dell because it clearly states Windows 8.1

    (1) why is a Win 8.1 drive included with a Win 7 Pro 64 bit system?

    (2) what is the problem with Dell backup and recovery that she:

    (a) cannot create a recovery disc factory

    (b) allow me to create a backup system so I can go back to the factory State

    Help!

    It has been 2.5 hours and it is still "initialize disk" to create a recovery of the plant.  It usually somewhere fails during initialization or in writing.    Spend hours for each failed attempt to create a factory recovery disc is NOT GOOD!

    The factory restore disk was finally created.

    Dell is now a person pays create a backup system and the user must download a update to do so.

    Microsoft has a tool to create a system image and make a recovery / restore disc which is free.

    So, I used DBaR do restore disk by the factory.

    However, to make a system image and a recovery / restore for that, I used windows 7 built in software.

  • How to make a backup of the drivers and applications

    I have a HP Pavilion Desktop PC all-in-one 23-B115EA, originally with Windows 8 installed which I have updated to 8.1 of the store.  After a problem, I was advised to create a System Image on an external hard drive, what I've done.  I also have a recovery disk including the recovery on a USB Partition and a new Restore Point.

    The reason why I write, is that what follows has been also sugested "Furthermore, make a backup of the drivers and Applications.» Still, if the hard drive needs to be replaced, you will need to install all the drivers and perhaps some applications again for which you have this backup. "I don't know how to do on the PC and I was wondering if it was possible.

    Best regards, Mike-01

    Mike, you're welcome.

    I know that in the past, there are third-party programs that could back up the drivers, but I could not find one to win 8.1.  With respect to applications, the CD recovery and Image will be all you need.

    People,

    Hello. I use the server of Oracle 11 GR 1 material with operating system Oracle Linux 5.10 database.

    I understand how to back up the database instance in SQL Server with Windows. But do not really understand how to back up the database instance in Oracle on Linux.
    I did it cold and hot backup for the database HRCS90 instance, but both receive the same error message.


    Cold backup is below:

    While the instance of database HRCS90 is starting, I do hot backup by using the same commands and get the same error message with above cold backup.

    My question is:

    Can any folk tell me specific steps (order by order) to back up a single instance of the database in Oracle with RMAN?


    Thank you.

    Yes, you can restore and recover the backup, but not at the moment. You will only be able to restore and recover at the time of your backup.

    For example.

    If you take backup (mount point with no mode of journal archive) at 06:00 and your grave database crashes at 21:00, you will be able to restore and recover until 06:00. You will find all the changes made to the database between 06:00 and 21:00.

    If you want your database to recover until 9 PM or until a point in time, then you must put your database in log mode archive, and then save the archives.

  • How to make a backup of the data of mounted drives

    I am currently running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise and attempt to use Microsoft Backup Server version 1.0 to the backup of files/folders specific to both local drives and the drives that were mounted from other servers.  My problem is when I set up the backup to run, none of the mounted drives are available in the backup utility as a choice for me to select the backup files from.

    Hello

    Please contact Microsoft Community.

    I understand you want to make a backup of windows 8 and reuse it again with another version of windows.

    Unfortunately the Windows updates cannot be saved nor can they be transferred from one computer to the other.

    After you perform a new installation, you must reinstall Windows updates again.

  • Computer laptop questions - how to make a backup of the photo tags without saving with elements?

    I have 5 items installed on my laptop, but I have problems with video card.  It is by default the generic driver, and I can not launch the elements to make a proper backup of my files.  I get a message that it requires a screen of 1024 x 768 or greater than 256-color resolution, I can not do.  I can access my photos very well via Windows Explorer, but I would back up the tags as well (several tags on 6000 + photos) so I have to either find a way to start in low resolution, so I can do a normal backup with elements, or I need to find the files that store the tags, so I can move it to a new pc when I reinstall.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That you think is NOT the right file.

    Now, you did say that you had already chosen a different name for your catalog - so I have concluded that you are using the default name. Therefore, my suspicion is that you have not set the Windows options to Show hidden files , or that you have not set the search options to include hidden files.

    You can make the setting for show hidden files from either Windows Explorer or the control panel screen. In Windows XP Windows Explorer, I think he was in the Tools menu select Folder Options and then choose the view tab scroll down to hidden files and folders and click the circle (button) next to show hidden files and folders.

    Then, since I gave you a full path to the folder, you can't really search you can simply expand the hierarchy of folders using Windows Explorer to find the folder

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Catalogs

    Try this approach and then post back with your results.
