• reduce the size of icon, window and fonts after running system restore

  After running, all system restore my widows, fonts, and icons are way too big to fit on my screen. How can I reduce their normal size?

  Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

  Then:

  Change the screen resolution

  Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  See you soon.

• Windows Home Server 2011 complete system restore problem = cannot start the LAN adapter

  Home built PC

  Card mother Gigabyte GA-Z77MX-D3H

  Network adapter Atheros AR8151 PCI-E on the map connected to the LAN Cat6

  Windows Pro 10

  Windows Home Server 2011 on LAN

  I had a hard drive failure partial who gave no symptoms or errors except a VERY slow start-up and operation.  I tried to do a restore of the entire system of my Home Server 2011 backups to see if, perhaps, just the image was corrupt.  USB was created and all drivers copied from pilots for the full system restore folder.  Has started the full restoration of the system and loaded the missing NETWORK adapter driver by using the scanner for drivers.  Driver support was successful but no lights NIC and the message "cannot find server".  NETWORK card was working fine before, even with the bad hard drive and also after the abandonment of the restoration.  Installed the new drive hard C:-System and that was the main problem, BUT..., the later to restore attempt was always the NIC starts not problem.  Tried the driver directly at Gigabyte support and drivers drivers for the full restoration of the system of records from several different backups.  No love.  Just NIC does not start after the specified load successful pilot.

  All good advice?

• For Windows XP Service Pack 3 system restore

  Hello: I am trying to get my PC works well again.  Thanks to Andrew E. who helped me to solve my problem of Windows Installer.  Your help is greatly appreciated.  Your instructions are clear and easy for me to follow - much appreciated!

  My XP System Restore utility still does not work.  There is no timetable for me to choose a restore date when I try to restore to an earlier date.  It will also not me type information to create a new restore date.  Do I need to uninstall and reinstall the system again restore?  Is so, could someone please help me.  I was hoping that this issue would not far by correcting the problem of Windows Installer.   I am new to the technology, but learn at a faster pace that I have but I.  Any suggestions you have would be useful?

  Thank you very much

  Shirles

  Thanks for the reply SmittyChat:

  I don't actually have to use your recommendation.  After a few updates it worked properly again... and I hope that continue to work correctly.   I replaced my old Windows XP with a new PC for Windows 8.1.  However, I use the old XP as a learning tool for software that I need to refresh to work.  I also want to learn more about the process of the operation of the PC, become more competent, etc.

  My apologies for not responding earlier.  I was sick and did not use the PC for a while.

  Thanks again for your help and your support!

• System Restore does not: Windows XP, getting the error "system restore has not initialized because windows stops."

  "System restore has not initialized because windows stops."

  This message keeps me from using system restore any previous date, I chose. Restore fails every time.

  Window shutsdown too early. What can I do to prevent this?

  Try to boot mode safe (the F8 key as the computer starts from the tap) and run system restore from in Safe Mode.

• Errors in Windows 7 with Windows Help and Support, network connection, and the system restore

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6 (4 years), sometimes overheated with heavy use. Normally I can cool, restart and wear. However, my laptop just overheated and closes, and this time I encounter all sorts of problems.
  First of all, after the reboot, I noticed that the system does not automatically connected to my Wi - Fi (it does not even recognize the available network).
  Secondly, in attempting to fix the network problem, I clicked on the link "Troubleshooting", only to receive the following error message "an unexpected error has occurred. ID of Package cannot continue the Troubleshooting Wizard": unknown path: C:\Windows\diagnostics\system\networking error Code: 0x8007045A

  Third, because troubleshooting did not work, I thought I'd try the help and Support Windows to search for answers. However, when I opened it, I received the following message: "Windows Help and support has encountered a problem. You might be able to solve the problem by restarting Windows Help and Support. If the problem persists, proceed as follows: 1. search the online help on the Windows website.  2. contact your manufacturer of computers or Microsoft Support for assistance. There could be a problem with one or more Windows system files or folders on your computer. "Because I could not connect to the internet, these suggestions and links were useless.

  Fourthly, as I failed to locate the problem, I tried a system restore. However, after he appeared to run (took about 30 min) and restarted Windows, the following message appeared: "system restore was not entirely successful. The system files and settings on your computer did not change. Details: System Restore could not access a file. This is probably because an antivirus program is running on the computer. Temporarily disable your antivirus and restart System Restore. An unspecified error occurred during system restore. (0x80070005)
  You can try the system restore again and choose a different restore point. If you continue to see this error, you can try an advanced recovery method. For more information, see what is recovery? "I have disable my antivirus (AVG), tried and received the same error message.

  Short physically all my backup files and restore to factory settings, I think I've exhausted what I can do.

  * EDIT * after scouring the site, I found a suggestion to run the tool via the command prompt System File Checker (see thread here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/no-internet-connection-on-this-computer-after/83fb22c9-712e-467d-9a68-f8d52dde9bcb), which I did and found some corrupted files. The following response appears: "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and repaired successfully details can be found in the CBS.log newspaper... File system changes will take effect after the next reboot. "After restarting, the internet connection problem seems to have been resolved. Service work. and Windows Help and Support also works! I hope it helps someone else!

  Hi Lorenacadi,

  Thanks for sharing of the resolution. Your efforts and patience are highly appreciated.

  In addition to the emission of heat:

  Two things inside the laptop generate heat - power (in the place where the power cord plugged in) and the processor.  The CPU has a heater and a fan to help disperse the heat and keep the CPU at a reasonable temperature.  Hot air is sent on the vents, and air at room temperature between in other events.
  What happens generally is dust forms near the vents, near the Airways within the laptop computer which lead to the mouths and on the CPU fan itself.  All these sources of dust cause airflow slow down, so that the hot air lingers and gets even hotter.  To resolve this problem, you will need to take the laptop apart and 'very good' to clean the dust and the CPU fan.

  Another potential source of heat which would be composed of dust problem might be software related.  More 'work' the CPU must do the most energy is needed and therefore more heat is released.

(more & on & above) So I chose to do a system restore to last Friday. I saw him start & I left the room for a while.  He has been restoring for almost 2 hours now. I noticed the "finalizing" file restore less than an hour ago. Is this normal? I have to do something else?

  If the computer is blocked, do a hard reset. Press the power button for about 10 seconds. Once the computer shuts down, stop and try again and follow the steps.

  Follow the steps mentioned below and perform a restore of the system from the Windows recovery environment. Check if it helps.

  (a) Insert the disc to install 8 Windows; Click on repair your system.
  (b) click the Advanced Boot Options.
  (c) click Start Windows settings.
  (d) If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
  ((e) (f) If you are using the Windows installation disc, click on system restore.
  (f) click about to restore during which the system worked very well.

  Let me ask you:

     (If you use a mouse, point to the upper right of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse down and then click find.)

  2. Enter the Control Panel in the start search box and press or click on Control Panel.

  3. Enter the collection in the control panel search box, and then tap or click recovery.

  4. Press or click open system restore, and then follow the instructions.

  If the issue still persists / block, perform a hard reset. Press the power button for about 10 seconds. Once the computer shuts down, stop and try again and follow the steps.

  Step 2: Follow the steps mentioned below and perform a restore of the system from the Windows recovery environment. Check if it helps.

• System Restore will not restore

  When I try to restore to an earlier point (whether they are earlier today, or 1 months ago), System Restore tracks, restarts, and then he says, it cannot restore to the point and no change has been made.  How can I solve this problem?

  Start your machine in 'Safe Mode '. (Press F8 while Windows starts)
  Then run the system restore when you are using safe mode.
  This almost always solves this problem for me.

  I have 2 problems; 1. I don't have any system restore disc, so I need to do without it.

  A disc of "System Restore"? There is no such thing as a "system restore."
  disc. You want to reinstall Windows rather than do a system
  restoration. If so, please don't mix up the two very different things.

  If that's what you want to do, and you do not have a disk to reinstall
  Windows, you should contact Sony and ask them for guidance on how to
  go ahead. You can have a partition you can reinstall from, or they can
  be able to sell you a disc for one low price.

• Try to use the System Image to migrate from Windows 7 for SSD for boot upward

  Hello

  I have a new computer Windows 7 operting.   I'm trying to migrate my OS to SSD for faster boots, etc..

  I first tried various 3rd party applications such as EaseUS Partition Master and Reflect, all futile for unknown reasons.

  Now I'm having problems using the built-in tool "Create a System Image" Windows 7.

  The Image of the system seems to be created properly and is listed in the appropriate folder.   The next step is to use the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool to save the ISO file, then use this ISO on the DSS file.

  Unfortunately, despite all that I've read to the contrary, the file created by windows wasn't an ISO... it saved as a VHD file.   The download tool cannot copy VHD - only ISOs.

  Microsoft technical support suggested that I have post the question.   All the patches?

  Thanks in advance!

  What happens when you boot the system repair disc?  If necessary, you will need to enter your BIOS Setup utility and make your optical drive the first boot device.

  You have created the system image includes everything: the files of your operating system, your application to the program folder and your data.  Assuming that you have already used your system for awhile and so Windows, your installed programs and files total user more than 128 GB, the image does not fit on the SSD.

  If everything except your totals of less than 128 GB user files, then a possible scenario would be to backup all your files from user to some external medium data, confirm that the backup is valid, and then delete the files from the current hard drive.  Then make an image of system of what's left (which is now less than 128 GB) and restore that image on the SSD.  You create a new user profile and then copy your files from backup data on disk 1 to and link to your user profile in the user data (see tip below).

  Another alternative, especially if you have more than 128 GB used even without your data, is to do a clean Windows 7 on SSD install, reinstall all your application files, specifying as much as possible of the facilities is located on the 1 TB drive and your profile link to the data of the user on the 1 TB drive.

  This trick of sevenforums.com can help with the problem of having windows on the SSD and your data on the disk rotation:

  If you are simply wanting to save files HARD disk space in your user folders, you might consider this below in order to access the files in your library with the actually located files where you want to place. This way you won't have to worry about the potential problems that come with mobile user folder locations.

  • Create a new folder to any location you want.
  • Move all the files you want in the new folder.
  • Include the new folder in a library of your choice.
  • If you wish, you can also set the new folder to be default 'save' for the location for the library as well

  To do a clean install of Windows 7 on your SSD, follow the instructions here to get a file ISO of Windows 7 to the same version of Windows 7 that is preinstalled on your computer: https://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/67-microsoft-windows-and-office-iso-download-tool burn the image on a DVD (Note: you can not just copy the files, use the built-in tool to burn dvd of Windows 7 or free third-party tool like ImgBurn).  Use the product key from the label on your computer (not the key retrieved by using a key finder program) to activate Windows.  See https://techingiteasy.wordpress.com/2012/04/13/how-to-activate-windows-7-oem-license-using-a-retail-disc/

  If this all sounds complicated - it is, and I haven't provided all the details - you can consider getting the help of a local independent computer repair shop (not a chain of stores).  Just make sure you get a real installation of Windows 7.
