• How to reformat the hard drive and do a "clean" install

  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.

  Question: How to reformat the hard drive and do a 'fresh install' on a clean hard disk "? ". (I have a drive to Win XP with service pack 3 and a driver disk for the hardware installed on my computer of the regulations.)

  Thanks in advance

  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.

• Satellite L650D - 10 H - how to recover the system?

  Nice day

  Today my OS on my laptop has been altered, he told me to restore my system. Windows recovery program does not work, every reboot of the same corrupted file. So I tried the vista edition Windows Home premium 64 bit dvd of my brother. Changed the options in BIOS and boot from there, but it took about 20 minutes to start the installer with the language menu.

  I noticed that the lamp 'written on the hard disk' shines all the time and from time to time the HARD drive is not listed in my BIOS. Maybe my HARD disk is damaged?

  Now my question is, how to restore the system or to stand up a new OS? What can I do to get my laptop still running? Where to send and what costs?

  best regards and thanks for any help

  Edit: now the hard drive is still listed in the bios

  Hi oxxxe,

  Generally you can restore the factory settings using the Toshiba recovery disc. Have you created this disk?

  In General, if the HARD disk does not appear in the BIOS from time to time, it seems to be a malfunction of the HARD drive and it should be changed.
  If your laptop is under warranty, an ASP may fix this problem for free. A list of all the authorized service provider, you can find on the Web from Toshiba site.

• My question is how to open the system advanced settings in window 7 64-bit home preuim

  My question is how to open the system advanced settings in window 7 64-bit home preuim

  Hello

  Assuming you mean the Windows Advanced System Settings screen, then right click on my computer and choose Properties.  On the left side of the screen, you will see a link for the advanced system settings.

  You can also call directly my pressing the windows and R key (which will bring up the Run dialog box) and typing in control sysdm.cpl

  I would like to know how you, or if you want to say something else.

  Good luck & enjoy Windows 7

• How to end the system idle process

  How to end the system idle process
  ... "it is to consume my whole CPU.

  system:
  HP pavilion g4 series
  Intel core i5

  No it's not! Maybe someone else can give a better explanation, but the way I understand it is that when your system is idle, the system shows 100% idle process or nearby and it is because it has no applications or programs that run, but as soon as you open a program or run an application, and it requires CPU resources say between 1 and 4%, you will see the system idle drop in numbers, which shows the amount of the resources required by the program or open application.

  So I believe that everything that is, show processor resources available to a given point in time.

  Now, a virus can attack the process and change his behavior? I don't know, but if you suspect a malware attack, run complete scans of your system just to be sure.

  Good luck.

• How to remove the system idle from dashboard?

  Hi all!

  Anyone know how to remove the system idle from dashboard?

  It is possible at all?

  Thaks.

  No, you can't "remove them from the dashboard.

  You would turn them off (aka set them as inactive), and this would remove them from all reports.

• How to get the system on disk vs download upgrade

  I'm trying to upgrade the system 10.8.5 to El Capitan. I'm pretty slow - Wildblue - on access to the internet and my screen shows that it will take 10 hours to download. Ouch, which will use a large part of my available bandwidth for the month.  HOW can I GET the upgrade of the system on the disk to install it manually?  Thank you!

  You can not. Take your MacBook Pro to a place that has a faster internet connection.

• How to defragment the system disk?

  On my HP Windows 7 computer, the system drive access to the Disk Defragmenter tool showed a growing fragmentation since I bought the computer about 14 months ago. Despite the warning that only discs which can be defragmented appear, the entrance to the system drive refuses to defrag (all other defrag properly). The system drive now shows fragmentation of 26%, so there is obviously files being written and rewritten on this subject. Unless I'm missing something, the reader certainly require defragmentation. But how to do?

  I also use Diskeeper 2010 (version Professional first) and it keeps all my system files defragmented - I don't know it would deal with the problems you encounter (you can try a fully functional version for 30 days to see what it will do for you).

  It is very reliable and I have never had any problems with it whatsoever (the company has been around for a long time and they have great technical support if necessary).

  In my opinion, it's the best defragmentation solution available because it runs in the background (so you can use the computer while it defrags) and it also prevents the fragmentation. I suggest you to get the test and try - you can learn more about it at http://www.diskeeper.com/

  There is a free offer here for the full Pro first 2011 version of Diskeeper. [Edit - the last of the free copies are spoken for.]

• Tecra R940 - deleted partition - how to install the system?

  Thank you

  As simple as that.
  If you remove the HARD drive partition, you can not use HARD drive recovery option.
  This means that you only have a possibility to install the system; you do it with the help of a support.
  If you have not created the recovery disc in the past, you can order one from here:

• Re: How to get the system running again on my laptop satellite

  Everything ok and ongoing run (Vista 32 bit), also installing the update for Intel chipset seemed to agree,
  but subsequently requested reboot does not work... and the horror began :(

  No matter if the hard drive is installed or not, following events occur after passing on: hhd light indicates activity, also for disk hard desinstallion (!), in the possible bios by F2, dvd lamp is lit and portable crashes.

  What has gone wrong? How can I get the system running again?

  TIA

  The whole story is a bit confusing for me. I put t know how you came the idea to update the driver chipset if everything was OK. Vista is old BONES and it is unclear to me that Toshiba has offered some updates of the chipset.

  What is confusing to me is the fact that you can not enter the BIOS settings.

  When you start your laptop you see Toshiba welcome screen and the grey line down with info press F2 to enter the establishment or F12...?

  What will happen after that? Display stays black or what?
  What happens when you press F2, F8 or F12? Everything works? Can enter you in menu start or advanced startup options?

  Try please start your laptop with the recovery DVD and press C repeatedly on startup laptop. Check if the installation of recovery will recognize.
  Post please a little detailed report.
