    > What should I do with a hidden partition in Windows Vista that is used for the start?
    The hidden partition is needed for the repair of the system!
    If something goes wrong with the system, Vista would be able to repair the system using the files from the hidden partition.
    The Vista operating system creates this partition automatically during the installation of the OS!

    After you change the HARD drive, just start using the Toshiba and Vista recovery disk should create the partitions and must run the installer automatically

  • Re: Equium A100 - 2 L - the search for the replacement of HARD drive

    I inherited an Equium A100 - 2L (PSAAQE) of my brother, but he kept the hard drive damaged in the hope of saving its data on it. Can anyone recommend a hard drive replacement, and I need one any attachment or additional connector?
    Looking at various Web sites, I'm puzzled by this disc to buy regarding dimensions (SFF, 1/8 H etc.)

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    No, you need a t n pregnant additional or connector. The caddy HARD drive you need you can use old HARD drive and the connector is soldered to the motherboard. So when you replace the HARD drive, you need only one new, what s.

    Equium A100 has already SATA interface that means you buy a HARD drive with SATA interface, but it of not important if she s SATA1 or SATA2 interface because the two standards will work (SATA2 is compatible downgrade to SATA1).

    So just buy a * 2.5 HARD drive with SATA interface *. Also there is no capacity limit, 500GB or more should work and manufacturing is also independent.
    Just look at some online stores and buy a HARD drive with good price / performance. :)

  • Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Nowsome keys on the keyboard no longer works.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

    Replace old hard drive with an SSD.  Now some of the keys on the keyboard stopped working.  Ex 'e' and 'b' keys no longer work?  Any idea what could take place in the disc replacement?

    Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

    Ah! -in this case, it is not necessary.

    I see from my records that a similar case has been solved by uninstalling and reinstalling the update WAT - KB971033

    Open the Windows Update - click the link view updates installed on the left of the page

    in the list, find the WAT update KB971033, and then uninstall it.

    Then restart and reinstall the update from here - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971033

    redemarrer restart again, then try to change your product key to the one on the sticker - what is happening this time?

  • cd/dvd missing after the replacement of hard disk and windows drive

    I have a laptop Lenovo I had to replace a hard drive, and Windows 7.  I've been able to do and got going, or so I thought.  I went to use the cd/dvd drive and nothing.  Looking at the Panel control does not show a d: / at all.  Device Manager shows a drive.

    If you use a perpetual Photoshop and formatted your disc version of starting without disabling your activation of Photoshop, you also Adobe supports help you activate Photoshop once you retrieve your serial number.  The startup disk formatting would destroy that credential of Activation Photoshop machine which is registered in the database of the Adobe activation server. Which reduces the activation numbers you have to use.  If you have Photoshop installed on a second computer that means that you have no free activation available as well, even with your key you can't activated the machine.

  • I have a TouchSmart 300-1007 that performs a hard block after about 30 minutes to be turned.

    I have a TouchSmart 300-1007 that performs a hard block after about 30 minutes to be turned.

    Windows 7 Home Edition, the stock machine, even if it does even if I start in diagnostics (F9 at the start of the BIOS), so I doubt it has nothing to do with the operating system.

    By "hard block", I mean the screen goes black, the wireless keyboard is not flashing blue light on the USB FOB and the power button only turns off although it by hand for 30 seconds. I have to pull the power cord to turn it off.

    It started shortly after the application of the 5.12 version 2A8E update motherboard BIOS published 2011-03-24. Never should have done that; experience shows that I have more problems than improving when updatng BIOS' are.

    No heat problem (air vents are clean as a whistle). I suppose the best thing would be to restore the BIOS but I don't know if it is possible, or how to do it.

    This is my daily workstation and is now effectively a boat anchor / deadline / brick.

    Any ideas?

    Yay for me. My dose of GENIUS has had this problem for THREE DAYS running machine now without any problem whatsoever.

    It it CERTAINLY evil genius of this machine, no doubt.

    Other victims of the Touchsmart series should regroup and get some kind of compensation. I know that I had to buy a new computer to replace this one when it stopped working, and I spent a TON of time to solve the problem (it would be an easy solution to the factory; not so easy at home)

  • HP dv6 envy: want to know on the best internal hard drive to replace it with

    Hi friends... I return my hp dv6 want 3 years and it has worked well for me so far, but since last month, everytime I turn on my laptop, a message is popping indicating that YOUR HARD DISK has FOUND YEAR IMMINENT FAILURE AND there NEED TO BE REPLACED and I studied a lot of posts here regarding this problem and everyone was asked to replace it with a new one. I don't know what drive should I replace it with. Could someone please help me in this regard. I need the following details:

    1. where can I find new internal hard drive HP ENVY DV6 1 to buy?

    2. can we replace this hard drive with the hard drive to other companies? (such as seaggate)... If so, so, please let me know

    3. can I replace the hard drive with a hard drive of 1 to solid state?

    4. links to vendors who sell internal hard drive?

    Please help me friends...

    The answer is Yes in all areas. The laptop will accept any 2.5 inch wide disk SATA 9.5 or 7 mm thick and which includes mechanical hard drives and Solid State drives. Where are you located (one country)? Hard drives and SSDS for laptops are a part of the goods. You can pick them up at a Best Buy or Frys if you live where there are no Frys or you can use amazon.com or newegg.com or similar online service. The prices vary a lot, so it is useful to get a good deal. A 1 to SSD can run more than $300, you know. Need instructions for installing and/or migrating software? We are a bit like McDonalds here in the Forum... served billion regarding replace drive hard/updates to level. One of the specialties of the House, so to speak.
