  I have a fill Windows backup of my hard drive took about 12 hours before the drive failure. I restored my system, but have failed to find my previous favorites of my previous version of Firefox. I guess I asked which folder they are in the backup system?

  Hard drives fail.  When they do, I have to reload all my programs on the new drive.  Everything goes without a hitch, BUT for ADOBE ACROBAT.  How can I get this program purchased a valid activation code or serial number?  I'm supposed to have a perpetual license, technical support function.  The Chat group is not able to help, for some unknown reason.  Adobe makes more difficult every time it happens for me to get the program run again.  Makes me want to switch to another program.  [email protected] is my email.  Thank you!

  your serial number is unchanged.

  Use the installation file of the program (acrobat 9 pro ext) that corresponds to your serial number.

• My hard drive crashed and I need to reinstall XP PRO but my computer does not start on the CD

  I went into the BIOS and changed to start from the windows xp pro disk but no matter if I put in the pro or the original disk, I get 'disk read error.  CTRL Alt Del to restart.  BIOS can see how much space is left on the hard drive, so it's there, and BIOS knows I want to boot from the installation disc, but it doesn't.  What I am doing wrong?

  Hi Jade4142.Did try you go to BIOS and set it to the default settings and put the disc in, and then restart. There are many variables to a disc is loading. It could be the Platinum cd/dvd is defective, the disc is dirty, scratched or any black disc market. It you load on the HARD drive that crashed? If so, it could be that the HARD drive is infected? If this is a new HARD disk, you must leave the disconnected HARD drive, start the computer that lights up and looking for a hard drive. In this way the motherboard works independent of the HARD drive. The motherboard doesn't have a HARD drive to boot. Once you start without a HARD disk he won't say you no HARD drive or o/s found. Stop it. Connect the HARD drive for the sake of things a NEW HARD drive. Then start the unit go to BIOS and set to boot from the cd/dvd and then save and reboot. If the disc is genuine, and it's a new HARD drive, it should load without problems. He must ensure that the cd/dvd is above the machine to choose this path.click top and press the sign on your keyboard + and you'll see it move to the top of the list. If she is not at the top is not first in line to start. Just trying to help.

• Replacing hard drive, made restoration of the factory, get the message error "installing windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

  OS = Windows 7

  Computer = Gateway FX6840
  Media = gateway recovery media
  Hard drive is set to AHCI in BIOS

  I started meeting with S.M.A.R.T. errors.

  I backed up my data.

  I replaced 1 TB Seagate original with a new 2 hard drive to Seagate Barracuda SATA STBD2000101. Computer is equipped also is from the factory... no additional or modified facilities.

  I tried to restore Windows 7 from the rescue of the disks created with the "Gateway Recovery Management"

  Windows copying files over, the machine restarts, it installs the devices, then it stops at the "installation program starts services" and a window opens with the message "windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer.

  I can't apply the Article ID: 2466753 because the process of restoration of the plant seems not provide an option to load a driver .

  Any help would be appreciated... Gateway is only interested to collect money.  They have no interest in serving the poor suckers who buy their products (computer is 2 years old so it is out of warranty).

  Thanks for the reply.

  Fortunately, I solved the problem myself (after 19 hours of stress).
  The problem is that the recent hard disk has something different that no longer ages and makes pre-service pack 1 (SP1 solves the problem) versions of Windows 7 incompatible. My set of recovery disks have been created the day I bought the computer, which had no windows updates installed at the time.

  There is an "easy solution" on the Microsoft support site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us

  Unfortunately, their method works only if you have a Windows 7 installation disc, which does most of the people who buy computers pre-built manufacturers. Essentially, the solution is to install SP1 from a disc when don't give you the possibility to load drivers during installation, an option that the gateway recovery disks.

  So I thought that, theoretically, if I use my recovery discs to get a clean install on a hard drive that works, then use windows update to get updated (or at least to get SP1), and then make a set of NEW recovery disks (using windows backup: start > all programs > maintenance > Backup and Restore), I should be able to use these discs to install the new hard disk.

  It worked.

  So for someone else who has this same problem with new hard disks, I hope that the above is easy to understand. If not, ask someone else more savvy and show them this thread. Do not forget that at the end to create new recovery disks, it will ask you if you also want to create a 'system' repair disc. DO THIS! This is the disk that you need to start from when you are ready to install.

  Also: If your new hard drive is bigger than the one that you have created the new recovery disks, the partition on your new hard drive (once everything is installed) will be the same size as the one that you have created the records on. You will need to use a kind of editor of score for re - size. I recommend Gnome Partition Editor. http://www.gparted.org

  Burn gparted Live CD and him, resize your partition, and you're done (google for more in-depth instructions).
