I need to make an extra Partition C: while preserving the recovery Partition

I have HP Pavilion DV6744 with windows vista home premium. It has two partitions, one with windows Vista installed and the other HP recovery partition. Now, I want it is re partition my drive C (Windows) and another partition to install linux. I can re partition on my hard drive (C drive to shrink and make additional Partition) by using the HP recovery. If I re partitioning my hard drive using HP recovery or any other program partitioning, then I'll be able to use the HP system recovery or I'll lose the ability to recover my system using the F11 key at startup to the top?

Windows Vista 32-bit (Home Premium) pre-installed

I've already answered your question. Create the first recovery CD using the recovery manager from the start menu, then after this attempt to start in disc1 to check that the discs work, then do what you want with your partitions. Depending on the age of the computer, you can even contact HP to order a set of recovery media.

    Hi Baba,

    Here are some step by step instructions that show you how to achieve this effect very easily thanks to the quick selection tool and a white adjustment layer to black & white.

    1. open your image in Photoshop. In the toolbar, click the Quick Selection tool and select your topic.

    2 go to Select > refine edge and use the dialog box to clean up your selection - I activated the option Smart Radius and increases the radius of the selection. When you are finished, click OK.

    3 go to Select > Inverse.

    4. locate the Control Panel settings - default, it must be located above the layers (in CS6) Panel, but if you don't, go to window > adjustments. Click the black & white setting icon, as shown below. Your subject will remain in color, but the parameter should turn black and white, as you can see below.

    For more information on the use of adjustment layers, here's a little video happening on the basics:

    If you have any other questions, feel free to post a reply!

  • Need to make small adjustments for jpg and overwrite the existing file

    I'm on Photoshop CC 2014 and I have hundreds of jpgs that just cropped and straightened. They are already copies of the originals, then there should be nothing that prevents me from doing these adjustments and quickly overwhelming with Cmd-S right? But I get the Save as dialog box which slows down the process considerably.

    It works wonders for a previous project and I'm updating PS between the two. I would straighten, crop, Cmd - S, move on to the next 1, pattern. Very fast. Thanks for any help!

    When trimming, make sure you have ' Delete cropped Pixels "checked.

  • I need to make my PDF document contains hyperlinks to the future edition

    I do a few documents (initially in CS) who will have a few details which will then have to be edited. As dates, etc. In these areas of the document. I think I can add a hyperlink to that effect. I want to only those parts of the document is editable so that the overall design of the document cannot be changed.

    Keep in mind that PDF (technology / defined and discussed in ISO - ISO 32000 file format) is not favourable to processor as "change".

    Touch-ups of characters and strings is tolerated. Acrobat supports robust editing but when used inappropriately to try processing as "edition" you can expect goober the PDF in an unrecoverable state.

    The initial content of output in PDF format. Have the PDF again using the comment and annotation of design tools that XI Acrobat and Adobe Reader XI offer.

    Refer to these reviewer annotations to update the file to create.

    A fresh output PDF and make a new series of tests.

    Repeat the process.

    When the file creation is 'good' PDF format for the distribution of output / deployment.

  • Upgrade to Vista 64 - bit of Windows 7 64 bit, while maintaining the recovery partition

    I want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit HP HP 64-bit of Windows Vista, but I want to assure you that I keep my recovery partition, just in case I want to come back to my original configuration. It is very important to me since the thumbnail with the original Vista product key is no longer legible.

    When upgrading to a new version, Windows 7 will affect only the system partition where Windows Vista is installed. Recovery partitions would be unaffected.

  • Is the recovery partition, all that I need for a complete reinstall?

    Hello!

    The purpose of the message in fact more or less add up to my problem, but I guess being a little more specific can not hurt.

    I need to format a hp laptop. It seems G700.  I do not have anyone record but I don't have the recovery partition. My question is simple: is this partition and (the software on it) enough to format & reinstall or recovery tool still expected I have a few discs at hand during the installation?

    You don't need any drive that the recovery partition is sufficient to format and reinstall the OS.

    Note, there are many people here who does not realize that the formatting of the hard drive will erase all their personal data. Every time that I am addressing this kind of things, I always mention to make sure that people understand.

    Hi there @xdellman

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! It's a good place to find the help you need, so many other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff.

    I understand your question and confusion about different partitions on your system. With a lot of BIOS more recent systems are more than before.

    There are a few resources I can offer for you to watch which can help. Despite some "technical jargon", they should be useful for you. Start with this one:

    Partitioning and naming of the disks (Windows 8)

    It is a wonderful message of @Daniel_Potyrala , even if reference is made to windows 7, is loaded with useful information that applies to windows 8 as well. Its theme is more on the preparation of another drive with partitions, but this part of the update, there is information on the purpose of most of the partitions that you ask the subject. For your question, see especially section B, C, and E in this post on our forums.

    How to repartition the disk HARD of HP notebook with pre-installed Windows 7

    The EFI partition is a component of the system BIOS, abd allows the drive to be initialized and readable with a compatible BIOS, UEFI systems. If it were to be tampered with, the reader is more would probably recogneized as a boot device.

    The 22GB recovery partition is going to be one that contains an image of your original factory configuration. It is recommended ihghly you have a set of recovery discs to have another backup of your system. You can make only one series.

    The smallest is probably one that contains backups of the current BIOS installed and the drivers used in case you need to recover a BIOS update has failed. Normally there is a small partition called HP_Tools.

    I hope this helps.

  • need to make a copy of my OS for security reasons.

    I don't have an OS disk with my computer and I need to make a copy of my OS to keep on hand in case I have a sys. failure. How to make a copy of my Vista operating system?

    Depending on your version of Vista for backup of the computer:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial145.html

    Read the above.

    3rd party software:

    http://www.Acronis.com.au/homecomputing/products/TrueImage/

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • dynamic disk recovery issue and I cannot make a primary partition

    I have to cover, please read in full before answering a few questions. This problem started when I made another (retractable) partition on my main drive to run another operating system in a duel start setting. I made this partition, then I think that all my partitions (including recovery) computer went to dynamic. I deleted a partition, so I'm not going on the max 4 so I could do a primary, but she's still dynamic (that I made). First of all, I want to be able to make a primary partition to boot another operating system, and how can I do this without deleting my recovery? I don't want to use 3 third party software, unless they are free. Since my recovery is now a dynamic partition, can 2nd question, I still make a recovery? 3rd question, if I have to delete everything to my basic primary partitions, then can HP gives me a way to backup the recovery, or a least a way to send a recovery disk. Also, when I made the partition, I deleted the HP tools which was 200 MB partition (I think, but I don't remember), how can I reinstall it? Or it is necessary. Overall, I need to make sure that my system windows 7 will be stable with recovery and use with dynamic partitions. In addition, I have not used this program, but I was looking at a problem with a program called HxD Hex, http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=191006, I did not try this because it says this sector 0 1 2 location of the partition I tried to do a primary (Hex) actually says 4f instead of 42. ANY HELP WILL BE AMAZING! At least tell me my system can be stable with a dynamic partition, and I can repeat once if something goes wrong.

    Him did not have a hardware upgrade.

    Yes HP recovery disks will change back, but the question is that HP Recovery Manager will not be able to burn recovery discs, or perform a system partition recovery until the hard disk is converted back to base. At least this is what I've seen other posters.

    Seems (to me anyway) the only option is to use the software I mentioned above and convert back to basic & burn recovery discs or order from HP recovery discs.

    Someone needs to make a thread that is only a versatile guide to get XP drivers for your VISTA system. In my view, it would be a great idea to do a big thread dedicated about where to go to find these drivers rather than having hundreds of people to post individual threads. This forumn is that upward... What two weeks? And there are already a few dozen son asked this exact same question.

    I won't make the thread, cause I don't support generally or recommend the downgrade on laptops, so I don't know even where to look, but someone has to.

    The first sacred computer law: fast, reliable and cheap... Two choose the second sacred computer law: do not ask of others what can be more easily found by Google the third sacred right computers: you ask on an error message we don't bother to write

    Agreed!

    and, together with the laws you have posted... Here's a really useful tip when it comes to using Google!

    1. keep your refined search terms.  Keep it simple... for example, you will find what you are looking for if you use the search term: drivers XP DV6807NR then you would be: I need drivers for my hp pavilion dv6000 so I can run windows xp.

    2. do your research before posting.  What it means for others, it is that you are not trying to get them to spend their valuable time if you do not have too.  That being the case, you're more likely to get the help that you are need.
