How to upgrade HD and keep restore patition?

Hello

I have a HP HDX 16 with 250 HD

and I want to upgrade to

320 which is exactly the same

SATA

7200 RPM

Unfortunately can't add it to the old

so I have to replace

the quistion is how can I move the operating system and restore the partition to the new?

Hello Ogden,

You must go into the Recovery Manager and create a set of recovery media disks. Then you can install the new HD and run a system recovery which recreates the partition along with the original image of the system.

Here is a document on how to create and use the Recovery Manager.

  • How to attract attention and keep an open dialogue?

    Hello

    I have a dialog that must have informed parameters.

    If the user forgets something, I want to draw attention to him and keep an open dialogue.

    My 'code' is:

    if (w.show() == 1){
         if settings not filled in, alert and exit();
         do work
    }else{ exit() }
    

    The problem is that this way, the dialog box closes and the user must rerun the script.

    So, I made a function onClick for the OK button that checks these settings and alerts if missing.

    However, the main function now not get executed! Press ok does nothing (apart from the verification).

    So I tried to call the main function of the onClick function...

    but then I get an error message "cannot process the request because a modal dialog box or the alert is active"

    What is the correct way to do it?

    How can I alert him if something is missing, but keep open dialogue?

    Thank you

    David

    Hello

    I mentioned initially button.enabled property set to false .

    And Yes - code should collect each required field contents using, i.e. the onChange event.

    If 'all' is true ==> button.enabled = true;

    Just in brief...

  • How do I uninstall and reinstall restore feature?

    I have been asked by my security system to run a boot scan and was told to uninstall this feature when parsing boot and then re - install later. Someone would be kind enough to tell me how to do this? It is a little too above my head to try it without that someone with more experience than me.

  • How go referenced Managed and keep opening folders Structure?

    I am preparing to become "independent opening."  My first step is to go to referenced Managed.  With photos outside of the opening, I can switch to another dam or simply use the Finder with another editor as affinity.  I spent so much time to organize the folder structure in Aperture, I want to keep this exact structure of the folder in the Finder.  I tried changing to referenced pictures, but it seems that Aperture puts all the photos in one giant folder.  Maybe I'm missing something here?  Y at - it a 3rd party software that exports from Aperture and retains the structure folders?  Has anyone found a workflow that works well for this?

    I spent so much time organizing the structure of folders in Aperture.

    What kind of files?

    Folders for projects or for the albums?

    Aperture presets allow you to create subfolders for your projects when you reposition the originals, but to keep your folders for projects, you need to move projects for each folder individually.

    For more control on subfolders, use the control panel in the dialog "file > move.  Define the format of subfolder "Edit" instead of one of the presets.

  • Nikon D750 not taken care of by my LR3. How to upgrade? And when fate LR6?

    Hi all

    I just upgraded my Nikon d7000 for a D750, only to find out my D750 is not supported by LR3.

    ITI is obvious to level, but with LR6 around the corner,... could I be entitled to a free upgrade if I buy the LR5 now?

    looking forward to some suggestions.

    Thank you

    Anyone who gives release dates is only guessing. Those who are under a confidentiality agreement not to give this information. On the other hand, someone could know for sure. If you can use the DNG Converter and then get satisfactory results with Lightroom 3, it may be worth the wait. But there are really significant improvements in Lightroom 5. If you are a professional and customer-critical to do you can consider at least using the 30 day trial of Lightroom 5 to make this work. Then you can decide if you need to upgrade or if you can afford to wait. The trial of 5 Lightroom will install in addition to what you have now and let Lightroom 3 fully functional. 5 Lightroom will modernize the catalogue, but this will be a new copy and leave the unchanged original Lightroom 3 catalog.

  • How crop in LR5 and keep the same file size?

    When I crop an image in LR5, it severely reduces the size of the file so that my clients are not able to print their pictures in larger sizes.  Is it possible that I can prevent this, as when I get to the PS?

    When I crop an image in LR5, it severely reduces the size of the file so that my clients are not able to print their pictures in larger sizes.  Is it possible that I can prevent this, as when I get to the PS?

    In my view, is not the size of the file that makes the non-printable picture, it's the cropping or export settings, which makes the non-printable picture. You do a huge amount of cropping? You resize to export? Please give us the details. Please tell us the size of the picture exported in pixels (width and height). Please tell us what size (what size paper) is printing will be.

    The file size is a relatively empty sense information, and it would be wise to ignore it. It is more likely your actions (cropping or resizing during export) which causes the problem of the photo being non-printable.  I say, don't look at the size of the file, do not try to reach a file size, do not try to determine how to increase the size of the file... instead, make sure you use the right export settings and harvest size.

  • My windows appear "zoom out". In other words, the screen has small size, and a lot of information in each window. This happened 'on its own' one day, when I logged in. How to enlarge new and keep there?

    Example 1 - page of Yahoo mail "Inbox."
    The font size of the list of emails in my email yahoo "Inbox", is of about of 8 (which is very low). In fact, it's all in the window 'Inbox' except the ads.
    The size of the font used to be 12, which is bigger and easier to read.

    Example 2 - 'my ebay' summary page.
    Read the list of the 'activities' choice on the left of the 'Summary' page I have to scroll down for centuries until the second activity is displayed and then scroll to the bottom for centuries access the activity of the third and so on. It's like the summary page was 20 meters long.
    Used to be on the left when I open the summary page of all activities.

    It's as if some settings changed with me knowing. I don't know if this is relevant, but I think it could happen after I did an update to Java.

    Thanks for any help is offered,
    Tony

    If no fonts.
    Click the Menu Tools > Options > content > fonts and colors, click Advanced Options > Minimum font size set to None.

    To make the page level zoom by default-

  • How can I delay and keep the system running?

    Hi all

    I have two functions in the order shown:

    DoTest1();

    Delay (6.0);    6 seconds behind.

    DoTest2();

    After DoTest1() function, my intention is to delay 6 seconds before DoTest2() function. However, Delay (6.0) also stops test system to generate 1 second timer pulses to UUT and prevents WEAR it to work. I realized that when I replaced "Delay (6.0) with the function"MessagePopUp"and I tell the operator to wait for 6.0 seconds, it works (or test passes).»

    My question is "is there a function that would delay for a certain time before you perform a specific task, but still not to hinder other activities take place?

    Your help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    I have a Toshiba Windows Vista laptop and I want to upgrade to Windows 7. I have two user accounts and I was just wondering that during the upgrade can I still keep the files that I have on the accounts or they will be deleted? Thank you.

    If you make a way to update your programs and files will be kept. A custom installation will remove your programs and files.

    If you are running Windows Vista , in some cases you can proceed directly to Windows 7, and in other cases, you must perform a custom installation. The following table shows what editions of Windows Vista can be upgraded to Windows 7.

    Windows Vista Home Basic

    Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium

    Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Business

    Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Ultimate Edition

    Windows 7 Ultimate

    For more information, see upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 . (http://windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-vista )
    You can't go from 32 bit to 64 bit, a clean install is required. If you have any questions about the upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit or vice versa, please see this FAQ: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions
    If you have any general questions about reinstalling Windows , please see this site:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/installing-and-reinstalling-Windows

    Installation - 'upgrade' means what?
    Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .

    Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
    A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:

    • Back up any files and settings you want to keep

    • Install Windows 7

    • Reinstall all your files

    • Reinstall all the programs you want to use.

    These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.

      I'm running Windows 7 on a HP Pavilion with browser Firefox 3.6.8 browser Opera 10.60, IE8 and Google Chrome 5.0.375.125 browser browser.

      Can you tell me what I try next? Thnks a lot and sayonara for now the guy-Jack McElwee / keimanzero the Scion of the Anime in Brookhaven PA - USA

      OK I tried everything and nothing works! Only added beginners are updated browser Opera 10.63; IE9 (Beta); Firefox 3.6.12 and Google Chrome 7.0.517.41 and Java 22. Of course like everyone else in the world, I had to uninstall/enable and disable/download again and reinstall new Adobe Flash 10 and 11 of the shock wave and they keep crashing too! Hello 4 keep screwing browsers and now I get connection network problems. I run Comcast doctor and did everything it said to do, but nothing works. Oh and I added 7-Zip and WinZip also. Likewise, they will not work! Help! Thanks - K & K

    keimanzero,

    Comcast of Norton Security Suite version is installed? If Yes, who and perhaps malware is most likely to cause questions you have published, in particular the failure of the restoration of the system.
    First, configure the system to boot - How to solve a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    NOTE: Start-up mode minimum state all the 3rd party firewalls will be disabled. Open Control Panel > Windows Firewall to make sure that the native firewall of Windows 7 is now on.

    Download and Save the update system (or CheckSUR) tool. You will need to download the specific Version of CheckSUR corresponding to the architecture of the system to Windows 7. If you do not know the architecture of the system, and then click the link that says "Click here to show or hide the instructions step by step with images" under method 2: download the update directly system preparation tool from Microsoft Download Center .
    Description of the preparation tool system update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2

    Once the download is complete, close all open programs and browsers. Now, run CheckSUR with the system connected to the internet because it will download the .cab for system files. Reboot once CheckSUR is complete.

    Secondly, I suggest that you run the File Checker system while in the same clean boot state.
    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the field search programs and files .
    2. Right click on cmd.exe in the programs of list, and then choose 'run as administrator '.
      If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    3. At the command prompt, enter the following line exactly as written including the space between thec and the/and then press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problems facing the system have been resolved.

    If they are not, you will need to contact Norton support for the version of Norton Internet Security Comcast to get help, or just uninstall NIS, run the Norton removal tool (right click Norton_Removal_Tool.exe, choose "Run as Administrator"), reboot and then check to see if the problems are still occurring.
