• Question on erasing the HARD drive and partitions

  Hi my name is Fanta and I want to sell my laptop to someone, but I want to avoid impersonation so.
  I'll use an erasure software that will wipe away my whole HARD drive until there is no data.
  This is why I would like to know if there is a recovery on my HARD drive partition ready, and if there is a partition to the HARD drive recovery.

  Wipe tool will wipe the partition on the HARD disk. If he wipe the partition will take the recovery partition and if I need the recovery partition and I don't what will happen?

  Hello

  Generally, you won't find any recovery on the HARD drive partition. The Toshiba Recovery CD should always be supplied with the device. It must be only installed the operating system with the Toshiba drivers and utilities.
  However, if the Erase tool will also clear your partition then all files and data will be deleted.

  The HARD drive will be formatted again during the installation of the OS. If you want to use partitions on the HARD disk, you can create it in addition with Magic8 Partitions. I use this app and it of very great.

• Time machine backup partition

  According to many resources, that I found while searching, it has been possible, in disk utility, to partition an external backup time machine which was currently being used.  several pages instruct to select the drive in disk utility and click the partition tab.  but it seems that this option is rejected in el capitan, as the partition button is dimmed when I select the drive.  y at - it another way to pull this off, or I'll have to make a copy of the database on a different drive, wipe and partition external and re - set after you have copied the data base on?

  Thank you.

  El Capitan has not changed this ability, something happens. Select the drive, and then click info. Check the window long enough to capture all of its contents (the device tree path is not important and can be truncated). Take a screenshot and paste it into a response.

  Hello Chris,

  Installation from recovery or a recovery partition disks ' "won't replace (wipe) the partitions that you created. The idea is to "valuing your system back to factory conditions", which means exactly that.

  I suggest that you save all the information about the partitions that you created on a removable USB drive. As soon as you reinstalled windows, you can then recreate the partitions and copy the information from your removable USB hard drive hard disk internal.

• Conversion of WindowsXP on the BACK

  I want to remove Windows XP from a Pentium computer works perfectly, reformat the hard drive and re - use the system as a system of DOS games.  So far, I have removed most of the data files and most of the Windows System.  I have a startup MS-DOS disk reformatting, but the c: drive containing XP operating system is not recognized.  How can I get BACK to see the c: drive so I can use the FDISK command to reformat?  The PartDisk commands do not work because XP is on the basic disk C:boot.  I wouldn't throw a perfectly functioning, but the useless machine after 8 Apr 14.  Thank you.

  What type of hard drive you have, IDE (PATA) or SATA? If it is SATA, you may be out of luck, but if the BIOS is not set to IDE mode you can try to set than the first.

  FDISK has an option of writing MBR...

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/69013

  Something like DBAN or Killdisk can wipe all the partition information that should allow FDISK to exploit. I don't know if either as a diskette version, I've only seen versions of optical media, so unless you have another PC to burn on you might have to Google for an another floppy drive.

• Windows Vista recovery failed, then I install Windows 8 on the not Bootable Windows Vista.

  I bought a PC from a friend, Windows Vista Home Premium.
  Has tried to run a system recovery, but stopped by error 0xd0000017.
  I then created USB boot killdisk to wipe and clean my hard drive, but I think I accidentally delete the wrong volume.
  Not to restart the PC indicating that the file is missing please insert the disc of Windows Setup.
  I downloaded and burned Windows Vista Recovery ISO but could not run the "repair", not re - install.
  I guess the only solution is to buy an upgrade of Windows 8 and clean install it.
  But what bothers me is:
  I don't know if I have a prepared partition when Windows 8 invite "where you want to install windows 8. Help, please. Thank you very much.

  Here is a quote from the article:

  How to fix Apple 7 iPhone and iPhone 7 more overheating problem with these solutions:

  • There is a good chance that a third-party application is the cause of overheating Apple iPhone 7 and iPhone Plus 7. The best way to check this problem is by pressing the power and the Home button until the screen becomes black and then remove your finger from home while continuing to press power. Once you see the Apple logo - press and hold the volume up button until the springboard of the charges. If the appliance is in Mode safe tweaks will disappear under the settings menu. If the problem has disappeared, then you know that it is caused by a third-party application. You can try to uninstall one by one in order to track it down or go for a factory reset.

  The card adapter SD has a protection against writing about that switch?  (The small white ball?)  It is not supposed to not work in these devices...

  It is a failure because you can't restore an old construction on one that is newer (although she was not able to complete!)

  You can not put JellyBean on a device that has tasted KitKat.

  I'll try HP speeding download KitKat images for the 10 HD bug slate, but you may have to bug them too.

• Excite Pro - problem of WLan authentication after 4.3 update

  Hello

  I have a Pro excite, and today I did all the updates that where possible to the Toshiba service station.
  The last update Idid was the 4.2 to 4.3.

  After this update, it is not possible to connect to my Wifi.
  Authentication problem...

  I tried all of them, with or without WPS restarting the Tablet and the router...
  Before this update, it was no problem to connect with WiFi.

  What can I do?

  You can try to reset the Android system to factory settings and might try to reconfigure the wireless network.

  I found this recommendation in one of the discussions of the forum:

  + The reset process will erase all data, settings and apps on your tablet. You must have a backup of any data you want to keep before proceeding. +

  + 1. Make sure the Tablet is turned off and not in sleep mode. +
  + 2. Hold the volume and Power buttons simultaneously until the two Android icons appear. +
  + 3. Use the volume buttons to select the white box to the right. +
  + 4. Once selected, press the power button. +
  + 5. Use the volume keys to select wipe cache partition, and then press the power button. +
  + 6. Select Yes, and then press the power button. +
  + 7. Use the volume keys to select wipe data / factory reset and press the power button. +
  + 8. Select Yes, and then press the power button. +
  + 9. The tablet will reset now. +

• Satellite Pro C50: Installation of Win 7 using the UEFI boot mode

  I want to install Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Sat Pro C50 (downgrade if you like - comes with 8 win), but I want UEFI boot, with GPT partitioning.
  I'm happy wipe existing partitions if that solved the problem.

  I have disabled _have_ Secure Boot.
  Win 8 install DVD boot works;
  CSM boot and boot from Win 7 DVD works - but this is not what I want.
  Definition of return to the UEFI boot and install Win7 boot media - hangs on "Starting Windows" screen
  Media _is_ good, works well on the PC manufacturers.

  I'm not convinced that it is a problem of Microsoft.

  Hello

  On Toshiba laptops, where the UEFI BIOS is available, it of necessary to disable secure boot and change the boot to the CSM mode in order to boot from external sources and install systems other than Win 8 or 8.1 Win

  Of the workarounds in the internet described the installation of Windows 7 in UEFI mode but I doubt that this will be possible on Toshiba laptops because the BIOS is different and modified for each series of laptop.

• Cannot delete files from USB HDD CCC attached to Time Capsule

  Hello

  I use an external DRIVE (WD MyBook Studio) disc that contains two partitions: "CCC-Backup' (where Carbon Copy Cloner stores its backups/clones) and 'Media' (for my movie collection). This HARD drive was attached to my iMac, but now I have the seal to a Time Capsule via USB. Both partitions appear in the Finder and I can see all the data. So far so good.

  Now, I want to set up my backup of CCC from scratch. To free up space, delete the contents of the old 'CCC Backup' partition. First of all, I see a message like "XXX.XXX current objects of deletion":

  

  But then, after a while, I receive a message telling me that the deletion failed because I do not have the appropriate privileges (I am admin on my iMac, however).

  I have no idea if this is a related question CCC or if it could be due to the fact that the HARD drive is now connected to the time Capsule? Could someone please give me a tip how I'll be able to remove the old CCC where backup files?

  When the hard drive is plugged into the TC it indeed belongs to the TC. You must create a directory on the drive of your computer to be the owner of this particular directory. But what you do when the drive is connected to your computer is ignored when plugged into the network, it is owned by the network device.

  So the solution is very simple... Plug it into your computer, wipe the partition and then plug it into the TC.

  You must use sparsebundle then CCC for backup. It is important to understand that the CCC as Time Machine backup impossible similarly to a network drive.
