• Install Win 8 keeping the recovery OEM partitions

  Hello

  I recently bought a new HP Pavilion Sleekbook and it came with Windows 8 x 64 installed. Thing is that I use to make a clean install with the original disc of MS, mainly to get rid of all the bloatware of OEM pre-installed. Problem is I want to be able to use the OEM recovery partition to restore the computer to its factory condition any time.
  When I start my install Win 8, here is the partition table:
  Part 1 WINRE recovery 400 MB
  System part 2 without label 260 MB
  Part 3 untagged 128 MB MSR (reserved)
  Part 4 GB 674,4 unlabeled primary
  Part 5 RECOVERY 23.5 GB OEM (reserved)
  Question is which one of theses are safe to delete in order to keep things HP Recovery and the mechanism of F11 keyboard shortcut?
  My guess is that the part 2 3 and 4 are those that creates a normal installation of WIN 8, right? These would be the ones I want to erase?
  Part 5 is obviously the HP recovery partition so I will not format it, but what is WINRE partition? A new installation of original Win 8 turns off the ability of F11 keyboard shortcut?
  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  Recovery Windows (RE) environment is based on the environment of pre-installation Windows (PE) and can be extended to be a minimalist system to recover a broken system somehow.

  Windows RE is configured in configuration data for starting a system failover for the entry of MBR. If the bootstrapper fails on the default entry, it will automatically try to boot into the recovery environment.

  It is installed on the default system partition.

  The recovery partition is a partition of at least 300 MB. On systems with a formatted MBR disk BIOS, the recovery partition has the type 0x27. On systems UEFI with a GPT formatted the recovery partition has the GUID.

  Someone told me I should reinstall the sata drivers can anyone help me?

  Yes, you need to reinstall the SATA drivers or you will go to BIOS and set the SATA from AHCI mode to compatible.

  But why you don t use the option of searching this forum?
  There are a lot of discussions on this subject and it s not necessary to create 1000 threads on exactly the same topic. ;)

• Thunderbird does not work after installing Win 10 and the mobile profile of Win 7

  I've installed Tbird 38.3.0 on a new Dell computer with Windows 10 on this (8 GB of RAM, 1 TB harddrive). I then followed these steps to put my old profile from the old computer to Windows 7:
  1. copied my profile on the Windows 7 computer on an external drive.
  2 installed Tbird on the new computer Windows 10 38.3.0, but has nothing to do with it.
  3. following the instructions on the site of Thunderbird on the displacement of a profile:

    a) Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile on the Win 10 computer.
    b) Copy the profile from the external drive to the new profile folder
    c) Use Profile Manger to tell Tbird to open the new profile
  

  4. start Tbird.

  I see my files with email in them, but there are problems:
  1. None of the Tbird dialog boxes open when I choose a command in the menu bar (including the new Message).
  2. I can't get Tbird to display the contents of a folder in the Home tab. There is only the accounts and the advanced features of the Inbox, display in the right pane, next to the folder tree. The only way to see the contents of a folder is right-click and choose open in a new tab.
  3. when I click or double-click on a folder, the contents of the file does not replace the previous folder. TBird on the Windows 7 computer, clicking a folder displays the contents of the new folder.
  4. sometimes when I Alt + Tab of Tbird, then Alt + Tab, moving the cursor of the mouse on the messages in the Inbox tab causes the message object, Date,... to disappear, leaving blank lines.

  I tried to uninstall Tbird and reinstall it, but this does not solve the problem.
  I tried to reboot Windows 10 but that does not solve the problem.
  I don't seem to be able to download email and preview in the messages pane, but I can't open it in a separate window.

  A lot of people seems to be able to run Tbird on Win10, so it should work. Any ideas on why it does not work and what I can do about it?

  Thank you very much in advance!

  go to add-ons.
  remove the addon of lightning.
  restart - everything should be good.
  If you still need the addon of lightning, install it again - it should give you a new version.

• Satellite A660 - cannot install Win 7 using the external DVD drive

  Hello!

  Not so long I asked help to reinstall win 7 on my laptop.
  The only option was actually in the restoration of order dvd what I did. Today, it has arrived.

  Problem is, or was that some of the CD or the DVD couldn't be read for some reason any.

  Now it won't boot from the cd, it says faulty hard drives.

  So what I did I have pluged my detached external DVD drive and it started from that.

  But just after a few seconds, she told me to '1 support recovery' and open the drive in the laptop. Tried to insert the disc - nothing, like its not inserted, tried to disable computers portable cd - nothing please help

  Hello

  You should first check if the external CD/DVD drive is recognized as a boot device.
  Connect the external USB CD/DVD drive and switch on the device.
  Press F12.

  Now, you will see all bootable devices. Generally, the CD/DVD USB drive should appear if his support. If it does not appear, you will not be able to boot from the external USB CD/DVD drive.

  In this case I recommend you to create a bootable USB flash memory and install Windows 7 from USB flash memory

  How to return to Windows 7?

  Hello

  I guess that your BIOS contains the option to switch between the UEFI and BIOS of the CSM.
  It must therefore return to the CSM BIOS and must disable secure boot if it has been previously activated.

• Will I need to re - install Win 7 after the new motherboard

  I have a 'new' machine unfortunately screwed up. (It is refurbished, but many questions).

  I probably get a new motherboard. The technology will be able to transfer the credentials to Win 7. I ask because on the Thinkcenter and my Y480 I reinstalled Win 7 NINE times and have now good things.

  Basically, I really want to start rebuilding this machine with a lot of software, but if I have to reinstall after the new motherboard Tuesday I could wait as well. :-(

  DRM for pointers.

  For anyone following the answer is NO (less if done by the engineer).

  I asked support if the engineer should be port on my serial number for the new Board of Directors (Windows now finds the system not on a sticker card serial numbers). I was told 'no '.

  Of course, the engineer DID. My data has been flashed to the new Commission and Windows never saw a difference.

  Another wasted a few hours back up things.

• Re-install win 8 with the product key, the media official dell?

  Hi guys hope you can help, I have a dell inspiron 15-3537 opportunity and I'm trying to reset the windows 8 from the former owner

  When I try to reset BONES through recovery settings it indicates there is a problem with recovery, insert the windows media 8 and starting the DVD,.

  no problem (or so I thought) I have a true 8 dell windows recovery disk, but when I try to install from disk said wonder a product key, why?

  I thought that with genuine dell media I does not require one as never before,

  I tried jellybean keyfinder magical yet the key apparently finds it does not work, how to restore this laptop to factory without the product key? or y at - it another way to retrieve the original product key?

  or is there a reason why dell media requires a product key?

  any help would be much appreciated

  Thank you

• Try to install Win 7 for the first time

  Hello, I built my own computer and want to install windows 7 on it. I currently have 4 disks (3 are disconnected and they have a full installation of linux on them). I have windows 7 on a USB key, but when I get to the screen "Where would you install Windows?" I select the single partition it is (which I formatted) and click Next. An error "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or to locate and existing system partition." See logs of installation for more information". What should I do?

  Check that your drive is not connected to a SATA RAID port as SATA RAID ports may require that you use the F6 option when you install Windows in order to install the driver of chip RAID from a USB / Flash drive or DVD drive.

• How to install Win 7 on a SSD in Satellite U500?

  Hello

  I had good results with SSDS in my desktop PC (both Win XP) has decided to ride one in my laptop U500 who has Win 7/64. The original HARD drive still works very well so I saved an image on a big USB and burned a DVD of recovery.

  With the SSD installed and connected USB key, the image is on the USB drive. I get prompted to recreate the image and select 'Yes', then I get the message "the restore system image failed. No disk that can be used for the recovery of the system disk can be found. ». From here, it's downhill that, at the next prompt, the computer restarts.

  If I come back to the process and consult the list excluded disks, the SSD is shown here, but is not checked (thus not excluded).

  Only problem I could think of is the new SSD is 240 GB and the orginal HDD is 320GB but it is far from complete.

  Any ideas I can try?

  Stuart

  Stand by.
  You can install recovery using recovery DVDs image? I assume that you have created in the past.

  A few years ago I U500 and AFAIK it has optical disc drive that can be used for the installation of OS image or regular recovery. You have the Microsoft installation disc? When you start OS install has access to set-up for the SSD?

• How can I install Win XP on Vista on a Satellite A200-1YO

  How to install raid/scsi drivers and get rid of Vista for good?

  You will need

  -1 USB external floppy drive
  -2 diskettes
  -1 set of drivers for the hard disk on the computer
  -a legal copy of windows xp pro

  WHAT TO DO WITH THE DISKS.

  COPY THE DRIVERS DON'T CUT AND PASTE

  -get DISC 1 and place the required disk drivers, they did not all folders
  -get DISC 2 and make a folder called $OEM$ and in that folder make another called TEXTMODE then in this folder insert the drivers you have in disc 1

  Installation of the drivers and windows xp pro
  -When windows asks you press F6 to install the raid drivers press F6
  - then enter the floppy drive DISK1
  -When it prompts you to press "s" to install the raid and storage controllers...
  -Press "s" again and press enter on the same raid driver, you just tell windows to use
  -windows will then say that he already has drivers for the raid controller
  -Press the button appropriate to tell windows you want it to use own disks instead of windows drivers
  -After loading drivers remove the disk
  -Wait for windows to ask you once again the drivers then insert DISC 2
  - and finally, windows install vista WENT you need drivers for any hardware of your computer system, but they should be easy to get from the manufacturers website

  I used this method and it worked with a Toshiba laptop satellite a200 1yo with no problems

• Issue of upgrade graphics on the P10-802 Satellite card

  Hoping that someone out there may be able to offer advice.
  I now find I probably need to improve this system a bit. Adding memory seems simple but is also interested in upgrading the graphics card. Anyone know if this is possible? It currently has the ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9700 with 64 MB of memory. If it is not possible to change the map is possible instead to increase the memory on the card itself?

  Thanks in advance if anyone has any advice to offer!

  See you soon

  Post edited by: liamflan

  No, something like that is definitely not possible.
  Please do not mix cell phone technology with simple desktop PC.
  You cannot move the graphic card for laptop and you cannot increase this graphics card memory.
  Nothing to see :(
