  • I want to remove/erase/print driver to Windows 7 and can't find any documentation.

    New DELL Windows 7 computer (within 30 days) and want to remove persistent / printer driver.

    Could not find any documentation on the issue, and neither DELL nor Microsoft are willing to provide any type of support, unless its paid for a product or service that is less than 30 days old.

    OK, I found the solution to this problem... the info above is correct as it goes, but in my case, there was no option to erase the print on both printers 'ghost' queue because they were disconnected and (b) it has been shared on the network unavailable, so no option to the print queue was posted and had a printer assigned to TCP/IP port.

    Here's how I did, step by step:

    1. right click on desktop, create a new shortcut with the target under 'cmd.exe '.
    2. right click on the shortcut, "Run as Administrator".
    3. run the tool printui: printui/s/T2
    4. try to remove printers. If this does not work...
    5. click on start > run > Services.msc
    6 locate the print spooler service and right click > properties > stop him.
    7. open my computer and go to c:\Windows\System32\spool\Printers
    (you will need to say 'oK' to access the file).
    8 REMOVE the contents of this folder.
    9 restart the print spooler service.
    10. go back into the printui utillity (might need to restart using the same method as above) and try to delete printers again. This time it should work. If necessary, see the "Ports" tab and delete all TCP/IP ports that are associated with the old printer.
    11 Last but not least, I checked the other computers on my home network to see if any of these was located at the old printer and I removed these mappings, as the date of the spooling documents suggest it was printed in time once it has been deleted physically.

  • How to remove the hard drive on a Portege M400-170 password?

    Hello

    I read a lot of things in this forum, in the manual, I even phoned the Toshiba support and I still have no answer to my problem.

    During the first use of the PC, I set a hard drive password. Now, I want to remove this password.
    The user manual and the forum advise to open the bios configuration, under windows, which is supposed to offer the ability to edit and delete the password. No options, no ability to edit or delete the password.

    The helpline tell me that if the configuration of the bios under windows does not have the ability to modify or delete the password, I have no way to do it (!).

    I need your knowledge and your help :)

  • Satellite P10 804: how to remove the HARD drive?

    I would like to remove the internal hard disk of 60 GB of my satellite P10 804 and replace it with a bigger drive, but cannot find a way to enter in the case of removing the HARD drive.

    Does anyone have the details on how to do?

    Hello

    To my knowledge, the HARD drive must be placed under the optical dirve.
    To remove the HARD drive, first remove the battery and the optical drive, and then follow the steps below:

    1. remove the four black screws that anchor the shield of aluminum covering the HARD drive and pull it out.
    2. gently pull on the HARD drive the front panel of the computer to disconnect the system board, then pull it out.
    3. remove the four silver screws that attach the HARD drive to the HARD disk case.

    But be careful. If you have no experience ask someone with more experience in these replacements.

  • How to remove the hard drive

    My computer is about to crash with Vista and its features!  I can't put an administrator password, because I do not have an administrator.  When I try to add the Admin, I can't because I'm not an administrator!   Now since under the new additions to vista, I need an administrator to do anything, I can not update, modify delete problems or do anything.  I need to wipe the hard drive to windows 7 if possible.  Any suggestions?

    Hello

    You can reinstall Vista, back to new condition (how your computer was when you bought it), and then upgrade to Windows 7 (which will save you money)

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista:

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

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