I have questions about Ready Boost.

It seems that I should be able to expand my RAM, with a USB key. When I try to activate it, I said it is already in use and can not use it on this USB key. The laptop is used, then maybe the old user installed on the hard disk. How can I be sure, he is not corrupt, or simply delete it, so I can install it on my own disk?

After that I have submitted ^ that ^, I went back to the USB and tried to start over. Unplug the unit and plug it back and get the options box should and went to "speed up my computer" (or similar words). When I got the tabs for "Ready Boost" box, I started to look at the different tabs. I saw one for the description of the disc, and it looked as if it was completely empty. Ok. I saw an option to test compatibility; I ran the test. Ok. I saw an option to completely erase the disk. I think that might have been the key I was looking for; part of the 'available' space was not the case. So, I did a wipe and got 100% disk space, all available for this purpose. Now, I should be able to get what I want. If this does not work, I'll be back.

Here is a link that can help:

    Percy, I saw ads for computers that say that if you buy now they will update your operating system to Windows 7 free, when it is released.  It looks like he may be released in October 2009.  Of course, this could change several times before Octobler.  Here is a link to an article I found:

  • Have questions about my Satellite A660

    Please bare with me, I only am not computer savvy even the least of the world.

    My laptop Toshiba Satellite A665 is fairly recent, but from the first day I took out of the box when I move the laptop around, even slightly it "don't know", its really noticeable only when your playing videos or listen to music, because the music will jump. When I got the laptop each time that is would it give me a message that was something in the sense of ' movement has been detected something or something has been moved to a safe position "of course, I forgot the exact message, but it could happen if often later, I checked it to no longer appear whenever it happened." I assumed it was normal or something for this laptop brand since it was my first Toshiba but my laptop has locked up twice now. Screen freeze and crash all by that irritating jump sound and I would have vigorously to stop him. Both times, what happened was when I was doing more things demand a lot of work on the computer as a performer of music, a writing program, chat software, and a browser with a bunch of tabs open. So my question is - is this normal for laptops Toshiba especially right out of the box?

    He had been getting worse lately that I don't have even if it now to get almost constant jumps, its still not very sensitive and I'm not lock still but listening to music is unbearable because of that now.

    I swear to you that I have the worst luck with laptops! Hard drive of my laptop first died a few months after I got it, but it was used and had been handed down for my father, after getting a better. My second fan laptop broke a few months after I got it and she had to be sent to be fixed, she only lasted me a little more than two years and then its backlight for the screen came out and I decided to screw it and get a new one. Now, I have this laptop and he apparently has a problem on the first day. So frustrating...

    Please tell me there is an easy solution, I think that its still under warranty but I really don't want to have to send an another laptop back to fix...

    Hello

    > Please tell me that there is an easy solution
    Yes, there is an easy solution, but first I have to say to the question that you have described is not a bug, it s a feature!

    The program is causing it's Toshiba HDD protection. This means that if the laptop must be moved, the HARD drive head will move up to a safe location to reduce the disk from damage.

    As far as I know there are 3 different levels for this protection, you should try a lower level which allows more movement.

  • Looking at getting a second GS752TSB and have questions about stacking.

    Hi all

    I am looking at possible obtain a second switch of GS752tsb and tells me that it can withstand stacking and 10 GB/s. The documentation mentions that the stacking SFP port provides 2 band widths. 5 g. So the question is to achieve the stacking of 10G speeds requires to use 4-port SFP and have as aggregated links?

    2 ports on the GS752TS (B) can be configured for stacking (ports 51 and 52). When it is configured in the stacking mode, battery operated 2.5Gbps ports full-duplex. With 2 port on a switch in battery mode, is whence the bandwidth stacking 10 Gbps (each port battery 2.5Gbps in both directions).

  • Buy new computer Windows 7 Professional and have questions about other files, and the removals of document on the old computer

    Hi all!

    I need help.    I just bought a new computer that has Windows 7 on it.     This old computer is 7 years old

    and last year I had put win 7 professional about it.     I'm trying to delete files on it.    How can I do this correctly.

    What I need to remove the Windows 7 Professional out of it since I bought it and have the license and the disc.    Or, do

    to keep the disc and just remove it from this computer.     What happens if someone else wants the computer I leave it on and

    Give them the disc.   How can I handle this?     I am new to this?    Someone just set up my new computer and I want to

    to make sure that I have all my passwords and other things out of that right.

    CAN SOMEONE HELP ME SOON!    A.S.A.P.!    Cause I need to work for the new space.

    Thank you.    Sharon

    If you delete all partitions found (when booting from the cd of win) it will only destroy what is on the hard drive of the PC (all data can be saved), he won't do anything to victory dvd

    If your new PC shipped with win7 preinstalled you need not really your origonal dvd win7. -You can sell or keep

    If you do not want to give the old PC, then simply remove the hard drive (how can be found on google) and destroy the hard drive with a heavy hammer

    (A seven year old PC is practically worthless)

  • I have questions about the backup of Windows 8.

    Original title: backup of Windows 8

    Hello, I have two questions regarding windows 8 backup (office). I just bought a new laptop hard drive WD to use for the backup of my computer. Until I plug it to my computer, are there recommendations on what to do for any software that could be on this drive. In previous portable drives that I used, when I plug in they usually form any software that is used for the default backup. According to me, a mark was memeo. I would avoid any conflict with the windows backup software that is part of windows-8, so I ask for advice before I plug this new drive.

    The second issue is that I probably backup my computer so that I can do a clean install of my OS of windows 8. What is the best way to prepare my hard drives so that I get the best possible instillation? The instillation of my previous is considered to be defective and I don't want to wear one of these errors in the new instillation. It would be appreciated also all the tips on how to deal with the backup for this project and transfer my files on the computer. Uses the best utility to backup windows to do this, or is there another type of software I should use? Thank you.

    Salvation of the brain,

    Thank you for the update.

  • Photoshop CS2 began to have questions about the other windows.

    About 2 months ago, I started to notice that Photoshop CS2 has started to have problems with me open or do it before all other windows, such as Explorer or Chrome for example. This is what my PS normally looks like:Clipboard01.png

    and if I try to bring another program, it will act as if I clicked on the start bar and the PS is more picked up (you have to click the program again to interact with him)

    Then when I go to color/clear/do almost anything on the Web, my tools will vanish like this:Clipboard02.png

    and reappear when I click on the gray background of the PS window. They may not be disabled.

    Sometimes, and I don't have a screenshot because I can't reproduce right now, the new program (Chrome, Explorer, etc.) is displayed, but the windows tools will remain.

    I dealt with it for a while, but I would like to first of all streaming my art and I won't continue to happen. I like to use CS2, so please don't recommend just other programs unless it is just absolutely not repairable.

    I ran CS2 on this computer since September of the year last with zero problems, so I don't know why it started

    Thank you, I'll check the wire, but I tried to reset my default preferences, and that seems to have fixed.

  • Have question about video of the Dell laptop...

    Dell Inspiron Laptop:

    Processor: Core i3 - 2350M

    RAM - 4 GB

    Graphics card: integrated Intel HD 3000

    It's weird. Some games that I can play with the medium or high settings with little or no problem. I know that this is not a portable game, but I only play games occasionally. I'm not talking about games here either. It runs Skyrim and Fallout: New Vegas without problem. In addition, it ran call of Duty: MW3 upstairs very smooth.

    The question is... can I allocate more memory on my video card? He said that the card can be a total memory approx. 1696 MB, but I know this isn't a 1.6 GB video card. I read some computers allow you to change the BIOS settings to add more memory, but I can't find anything. Im just surprised he plays these big games that he probably lag at least a little, but he can't play hitman: absolution of all and the video RAM minimum for this is 512 mb like Skyrim.

    Hi Shizam123,

    Thanks for the reply.

    There is no option in the BIOS to allocate more memory for the video card. Video card performance is optimized automatically during the game.

    Thank you & best regards

  • Have questions about overall upward of Outlook Express.

    I reason that, unlike Hotmail/Yahoo, etc., Outlook Express needs a Hotmail/Yahoo e-mail account must be configured before can connect you to Outlook Express?

    An 'Outlook Express' e-mail account can be created with the outlook.com extension or the mail program is to 'Add' existing e-mail accounts?

    Given that e-mail programs have their own Web sites (Hotmail/Yahoo, etc.), why use someone

    Outlook Express to connect to their e-mail instead of going "directly" on the site

    "Unlimited" email accounts "customizable" with Outlook?

    It seems just silly to 'configure' email accounts when it is easier to just 'go' on the site directly. Am I missing something?

    Original title: Outlook Express

    As I said that outlook Express has been replaced by Windows Mail, which, in turn, has been replaced by Windows Live Mail.

    Customer e-mail are subject to development cycles just like Windows and all the other products are (as in general manufactured goods). Companies must engage in R & D and produce new and better products, or else someone else will be and take their market to them and put them out of business.

    Personally, I use an e-mail client whenever I can (Outlook - which is not Outlook Express) and use the webmail for the time where I'm not to my PC but need to see my emails. Use of one does not preclude the use of the other.
