    Hello

    system restore points are not here forever

    It depends on the amount of space reserved for restoring the system restore points on how you

    and as a new one is created the oldest one is deleted

    There is a box to check points over 5 days which must obviously have checked back 7 days?

  • Addition of iphone as a bluetooth device yeilds ' bluetooth device is not a driver. What do or where can I find the driver for it.

    Attempt to iphone to pair with my HP Elitebook 8530w Windows 7 64 bit. But fails says that I don't have the required driver.

    And that Apple is saying about it... After all, it's their phone!  I think this is part of iTunes, but I never expect Microsoft to include an Apple driver in their software, just like I expect to find a Windows Mobile Phone driver included in OSX!

  • Optical drive Blu - ray - XPS 8900 - where can I find out more

    Recently received a XPS 8900 special edition desktop computer. Very happy so far, but there seems to be very limited user information available (the manual is pretty bare bones).

    Am I missing something (calculated limited skills) but I would particularly like to see more details on the optical drive. I tried a DVD blu - ray in there, but he would not play. My understanding is that this reader reads the blu - ray, but will not write to it. It is perhaps the opposite autour?

    Thanks for any help.

    The optical drive is a Blu - ray Combo that reads BD (Blu - ray) and player written on DVD/CD.

    Windows 10 isn't any software built to play the DVD (Blu - ray or digital). So, you will need to find an app that plays DVDs to win 10. There are free and paid apps so do your homework. You can watch this youtube to get advice on a free Blu - ray player.

    I have no experience with Blu - ray apps, so cannot recommend any one, but only to install an application from a reliable source, and don't forget to watch the download does not seek to install a lot of scrap or ad-ware and that you do not want.

  • Where can I find a driver for Satellite A80 169 VISTA?

    Hi all

    I just installed Vista, but my sound doesn't work, because I do not have a driver for this.

    Where can I find it? On the Toshiba download page, there was nothing...
    My laptop is the Satellite A80-169.

    Thank you in advance,

    Anders

    Hello

    Alternatively, you can get the drivers by visiting * www.realtek.com * and research his "Realtek ALC250' Vista drivers for the card. (It s the soundchip that is installed on your system)

    So, your sound should work perfectly with the authentic realtek drivers.

  • 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.

  • Replace a hard drive in dv6 but is not completed the installation phase

    I replaced my hard drive with a disks recommended by an expert from HP in this forum, and he seemed fine. After starting with my #1 recovery and loading of each disk when you are prompted, I got the final guest/message: "preparation of the recovery is complete. Remove the system recovery media. Once the computer is restarted, the installation of recovery process will begin... Support on continue restart the computer. "When I hit the"Continue"button, the screen went black as if it has been restarted. But instead, a black screen with the HP logo in the centre appeared, with the text: "Press ESC for Boot Menu" in white letters in the lower left corner. Waited about half an hour, and then you press the ESC key, but it changed nothing. Same screen HP. And that's all - nothing else has happened. I left it on all night, thinking perhaps that it takes time to get there, but in the morning, the same screen was there and my phone was hot as if in use. So I turned it off right there. What would not, and that I should try now?

    Turns out that I don't need to download the Microsoft Windows software and then struggle to find the right drivers, thank God. My recovery discs works perfectly after all.

    Having read tons and tons of forum posts about this problem, I finally found a solution that worked really - posted by another user, GoodTimes81 (thanks!). This solution is pasted below (with numbers and an additional note added by me):

    (1) put the recovery disk #1 in and

    (2) when the Recovery Manager screen loads, you will get a few options, but the one you want is the command prompt (which appears after you select "Run a computer check.")

    (3) in the command prompt, I typed bootrec.exe/fixmbr, you press on enter and waited it says the operation completed successfully.

    (4) I typed bootrec/fixboot and then you press on enter and again waited until he said the operation has completed successfully.

    (5) after having done that I left the command line, restarted my computer and waited until my recovery disk #1 loaded up again.

    (6) then, I chose the recovery system to the Recovery Manager screen and went through the process of insertion of disks 1 to 4.  When the 4th disc is complete, it says remove the recovery disc and press on continue, which I did, then it restarts, except that this time it restarted and actually started the installation and facilities it is supposed to do and has completed the recovery process.
    _________

    The other user said these steps solved the problem for her, and they could work for you. Finally, they worked for me, except after step 5, the recovery disk #1 would not load again. I received an error message (the black screen, white letters) mentioning a problem of location startup (sorry, that I did not write down exactly what he says). I pressed the button power to restart, but got the same error message.

    So I pressed the button to power again but this time, you press F11 repeatedly until I had a menu of options. The option to boot was F9, then I pressed F9 and selected "CD/DVD player" (which I had already done elsewhere earlier in the process, but maybe it had reset after entering the command request?) and then restarted again.

    This time, it worked, and I was back in step 6 above. Load the discs one at a time (note: I have 7 discs instead of the 4 mentioned by another user), and after that the disc was done and I got the prompt to "Press continued to restart", it restarted and he proceeded to load all the software, drivers, etc as it is supposed to. Yay!

    What kind of system do you have?

    Do you have an XP installation CD?

    Here are installation tutorials

    If you had only a recovery partition, it's lost now so you might contact the manufacturer and ask for the CD recovery.

    When I replaced a hard drive, I wanted the same drive letter, but he wants me to take another. How can I assign the drive letter, that I replaced. The letter is now used by another device?

    Open disk management, find the drive using the drive letter you want to use, change the drive letter of this to 'Z', find the new drive, change the drive letter that you want, and then change the drive letter of the drive you have labeled it 'Z' to a drive letter of your taste.
