  • Recovery CD expert Mode... Is it possible to save data?

    Hi all

    I have problem with my computer, a Satellite 2410-303. Yesterday, there was a power failure, and since windows does not start. The only 'reaction' I get the computer is to use the recovery CD. I had read on the forum and learned the expert mode and I know that you can install windows on a partition, so you can save your data in other partitions. The problem is that I do not did it all, I have just the old 'C:' in there. I really need to retrieve the data inside the computer.

    Hello

    Of course, it is possible to create the partition in expert mode.
    After you choose the expert mode the ghost window should appear.
    There, you have to change the size of the HARD drive to the smaller size.

    For example: the HARD disk has 60 GB and you want to have a second 20 GB partition
    Therefore, change the size of the 40 GB HARD drive. Then after the installation of the operating system you should get into the disk management and should make the visible 20 GB partition.

    OK, this procedure should create the partition but I m not 100% sure if it will NOT delete the existing files on the HARD drive.

    However, the 100% safe procedure is to turn off the HARD drive and connect it as an external USB HDD on a second computer and some make some backups from the external HARD drive.
    After this procedure, you can reinstall the HARD drive in the notebook, and then start the operating system recovery procedure.

  • How to uninstall Windows XP, save data and re-install Windows XP

    My computer is running very slowly; Some programs take literally minutes to appear. I have the disks so I figure I'll uninstall and reinstall. I would like to save the data of losing it; address of e-mail etc. Do not know how to proceed. Thanks for any comments.

    Technically speaking, you uninstall an operating system as such, you just format the drive where it is installed and then install another OS or use the drive for anything you want.  This is the easiest part, just start the computer with your CD of Windows XP and the disk & partition selection screen, select the partition where you want to install Windows XP, and then format the NTFS partition and proceed with the Windows installation.  Very important: make sure you have the Windows XP product key BEFORE you to format the Windows installation!  Without the key, you will not be able to install Windows XP.  If you have lost the key, it can be retrieved the operational facility before formatting it.  You must also have the latest drivers for your as motherboard and chipset at hand, these are the first drivers you need to install after installing Windows, then you normally install video drivers and other drivers.  It helps a lot if you know what hardware is installed and if you have the drivers on hand or that you know at least that the manufacturer has them available on their site.

    Save your settings and personal data may be a little harder, if all your web browsing is done with Internet Explorer and if all your e-mail is done with Outlook Express you can use the files and Settings Transfer Wizard to save these settings and files and then restore them to the new facility.  If you use another browser or web e-mail program and then saving those settings and files will depend on programs.

    With regard to your personal information only you can know or decide what should be saved, usually most of your data would be in your profile (C:\Documents and Settings\Votre user name) folder, but we all know that most of the users themselves with data stored outside the profile folder, you should know where your data is and then back up to CD DVD, s, external or second internal drive or another computer on your network.  If you ask me the safest way is to clone the hard disk whole or all but the Windows folder on a second hard drive to backup.

    PS: It's also things go much faster if you first download Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3 and burn them on a CD beforehand.  Install them AFTER installing the drivers.  (You have SP1 or SP2 installed prior to installing SP3, you can install SP2 without SP1).  He's going to win a lot of time when you go to the Windows Update site if the installation is already upgraded to SP3.

  • Sending a video of home DVD for Windows Movie Maker

    I dubbed him all my old VHS to DVD videos.  Now, I'm trying to download a home DVD video that I created on my Sony HDMI DVD RDR-VX560 using Windows Movie Maker.

    ======================================
    Copy the VOB files to a folder on your hard drive, then
    Convert it to .wmv format. Then you can import the
    file .wmv in Movie Maker.

    The following freeware can convert:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory
    http://www.pcfreetime.com/
    (FWIW... you can uncheck
    all the boxes on the last screen)

    After downloading and installing Format Factory...
    Open the program and choose an output folder...
    (this is where you will find your files when they are
    converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the
    main screen...

    Select "At?" / OK...
    (the? is the format of your choice)

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

  • Is it possible to save a layout of the custom toolbar?

    Is it possible to save a layout of the custom toolbar?

    Print the help to the page layout, I can pretty well do memory...

    Once you have freshly generated the page layout you want

    1. Open your profile folder by typing about: support int the address bar (or help > troubleshooting information...)
    2. Click Open containing folder
    3. Use file > exit or "Firefox" button > Exit to exit Firefox (not the ' X' top-right that just closed the window)
    4. in your profile f older localstore.rdf select and copy ('Ctrl + C') then in short tights to make a copy, repeat the steps to create at least a copy, the original and the "localstore - Copy.rdf" and the "localstore - copy (2) RDF" will all be the same, about 4 KB to begin with. (not 18KO not 76 KB)
    5. Replace Firefox.

    Freshly generated means rename or delete the localstore.rdf original while Firefox is down, restart Firefox and customize your toolbars as you want.

    If you have a problem with a corrupt localstore.rdf put Firefox down and in your profile directory, delete or rename the localstore.rd then rename a copy of localstore.rdf

    Reference: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf see references to the backup copy, you must, of course, take periodic backups of all your personal data, and for Firefox, which includes your profile.

  • Can't burn data DVD on Windows Media Player

    So, the thing is, in the drop-down list on Windows Media Player, where it is supposed to be written 'CD or data DVD' in the 'Burn' section, there is only the option "data CD". Reading through the internet I can't find an answer on this error. First of all, I'm sure that my DVD drive can burn the DVD, I have a lot of DVD burned on other programs, but the Windos Media Player is the best option to save my music library prety and though I can use other programs that I wanted to use Windows Media Player.

    PS: I don't have that 1 driver CD/DVD in my PC.

  • Why, trying to ' save/burn DVD' in Windows Movie Maker 2011, Windows stops at 40% registered?

    I carefully created a film that lasts 1 hour 19 minutes and consists of clips video, pictures always and the music with Windows Live Moviemaker 2011.

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and think I have all the updates that are loaded.

    When I try to "save/burn DVD", Windows starts the recording of the film process, and when she gets the 40% recorded point, Windows will stop.  What is the problem?

    Large, complex projects, such as the one you created tend to
    be problematic.

    There is a real possibility that you have included one or more
    source (photos, video clips, music files) files that are either
    corrupted or not completely compatible with Movie Maker / DVD Maker.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with Movie Maker but
    the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    ====================================
    There are several types of AVI files, and they can
    be problematic. Maybe the info would be
    be interesting reading... good luck.

    If you want to just put your video on a DVD for
    for archival purposes, you would create a data DVD.

    See the following article:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/burn-a-CD-or-DVD-in-Windows-Explorer
    (See "to burn a disc using the ISO image format")

    To create a video DVD (which will play in)
    a free-standing DVD player)... you need DVD
    Software authoring as Windows DVD Maker.

    See the following articles:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/burn-a-DVD-video-disc-with-Windows-DVD-Maker

    If you still have problems, the AVI may need to
    be converted to WMV format before burning.

    There are to many converters available on the net...
    some free, some details... the following freeware is
    just an example:

    (* Read * all * the installation screens... it)
    may be a few items you want to unmark *)

    When you have installed Freemake... Open Freemake
    and drag and drop your video files on the main screen.

    Or... Click left on the video button and navigate to the
    your video files are saved in the folder.

    Select (highlight) the files you want to import into
    Freemake and left, click on the button 'open '.

    When video files are imported into Freemake,
    On the left, click the WMV icon at the bottom of the screen.

    The 'WMV output settings' screen opens.

    Choose a folder ' save in ', so you can find the
    converted files.

    On the left, click the "Convert" button and wait for the files
    to convert.

    That should do it...

  • Create, save data backup

    Hello

    This is probably a fairly common question, but I looked around and either did not answer or did not understand them. I honestly don't know who. So, without further ADO, here is my question.

    My iPhone becomes quite comprehensive, so I was thinking about the removal of some of the games I have on it to make room for the new. I have a few save data on the apps that I would still be there when the application is downloaded again later. Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Unable to save the 'Release Date' field in iTunes/Windows 12.4.0.119

    I've just updated to 12.4.0.119 and can no longer add Release Date for a TV show.  When I go to "Get Info" and type the release Date, it allows me to enter a valid date, but as soon as I have the label off the field it emerges by itself.  If I enter the date and click on 'Ok', the date is not recorded.

    I had this same problem Windows 10. Just tested it on iTunes/Mac 12.4.0.119 - this platform will not yet you allow to select the release Date field to make an entry.

    It is a major issue, as AppleTV allow no sorting replacing television programs other than by Release Date.

  • Tecra A9 - can't burn data on DVD - R

    I have a Tecra A9 with the TEAC DV-W28ECT.
    I can write on CD - R and DVD + RW.

    I've been trying to write on a DVD-R but default.

    It can / should it be able to write to the latter?
    Whatever it is, it is compatible with DVD + R?

    Hello

    The CD/DVD drive supports all types of CD and DVD.

    But the fact is that not all of the disks from different manufacturers are supported the same standards.

    So it could be possible that different brands of DVD is not compatible, or the STRANGE would address all the discs correctly.

    I made good experiences with TDK discs. I m using the CD - R and DVD-R TDK and in most cases the procedure of writing can be finished successfully.
