I need to have some sort of copy of my entire hard drive please
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Mail
Hello
As you use Vista Home Premium, your edition of Vista has a backup of the available computer.
You need third-party software to do what you want to do.
This is a good program to do this; but you don't have to buy it:
http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage/
There are a few free programs for what you might like to use:
http://www.Paragon-Software.com/home/BR-free/download.html
http://www.Macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx
http://www.TODO-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm
See you soon.
p.s. If you have never received a recovery disk when you purchased your computer, you should have a recovery Partition on your hard disk to reinstall the operating system, what it was like when new.
You should be able to make the recovery discs from the recovery Partition to factory settings (new condition)
This isn't what you want to do but al teast you can reinstall the OS again, if it crashes.
Read any operating instructions supplied with your computer or ask the manufacturer how do these recovery disks.

I accidently deleted pictures from the camera chip while it was in drive d:, but before that I copied them to the hard drive. Is there a way to recover?
Hello
What version of Windows are you using?
If it is deleted from the memory card, it can not be recovered. However, there are some third-party applications or the tool that will help you recover photos. If you have saved the pictures on the hard drive and deleted, so you can check in the trash.

copy photos on external hard drive
Can someone give me a method step by step to copy the photos and videos on my photos/iphotos to my mac to an external hard drive please? As far as I understand it, is not simply a matter of copy and pasting. Or is it? Sorry in advance, I'm not very technical interest.
Do you want only the pictures and videos on the external drive, or do you want a backup of your iPhoto Library library or a library of Photos?
For a full backup, select the iPhoto library and photo library in the Finder and drag the libraries in the folder to your external drive. To store libraries, the external drive must have the file system format "Mac OS extended (journaled).
If you only want copies of your photos and videos, export them Photos and iPhoto.
See Terence Devlinuser Tip: export for iPhoto
It explains how to export your photos from iPhoto. Use the same method in Photos to export your photos in folders on the external hard drive.

Emails in outlook express may be archived or copied to an external hard drive?
Emails in outlook express may be archived or copied to an external hard drive. I have about 8 years I want to lose.
See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6 Just run OEQB and it will create a backup in a directory that you specify. I would recommend the backup on the disk hard local and then copy on the external drive so its slower.
The OE files are very sensitive to corruption and many people lose messages per day (see point 2 on this page), so you should go often enough if you want to keep your messages. Hard drives may also fail and you lose everything.

I need to back up an entire hard drive, XP and all
I replaced a strong record for my neighbor and found myself in a strange position. I need to back up the entire hard drive, so I can replace it with a larger, but cannot start on this disc (when its in my computer) because of a BSOD. I can start in my regular reader (the one I normally use in my computer) and browse the disk I'm trying to backup with no problems. I tried to use Norton Ghost, but when I try to boot from the new drive, I get an error and cannot continue. That I can use that backs up the entire disk, including Windows XP and all the files and allow me to boot from it?
4ndyC2D,
Microsoft didn't offer not any type of disc for XP Imaging tool. At this point, you will need to use a 3rd party program to accomplish the task.Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

Do I have to buy a new license if my hard drive breaks down?
I recently bought an upgrade from vista to windows7. I have everything backed up before upgrading, but couldn't do it once the upgrade is complete. About 3 days after I installed upgrading of primary and secondary hard drives both failed... Obviously, portable hard drive do not last as long as computers desktop and 5 years is a long life of your laptop, or so I thought. in any case, I have two new 750 GB momentus xt hybrid SSD of HD and I'm ready to rock but no OS because the key does not work since is not attached to the HD crashed. Any ideas? Please help, I am already tired of using my laptop to marry; his old and say that it is the turtle, and not the rabbit would be cruel to the turtle.
Like you bought an 'upgrade' I presume that you have actually installed as such on your failed HARD drive now.
With a new drive HARD vacuum, you have no earlier version of the OS (Vista) for the drive of W7 upgrade to recognize.
This may be a workaround,
http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/31402-clean-install-upgrade-Windows-7-version.html
or if it does not work you can try this method of double installation Vista, which is a valid path to a clean install.

If it will not always turn on then you are going to have to plead your case to MS via the telephone support option.
It is up to you to ensure that your license is valid and that you do not violate the EULA
