Marked by mistake to a partition 'Active'. Cannot access my XPS L501X.

I can't find my start-up recovery disk to fix this. I am able to make one from another computer laptop I can change the status of the partition without losing all my data?  Thanks for any help you can give me.

Yes. You can use MiniTool Partition Wizard, or AOEMi Partition Wizard, both free.

  • Why the Dell recovery partition is marked as partition active?

    As far as I know the active partition where the bootloader. So I have a few questions:

    How the recovery partition to load windows?

    Could not Dell set the Windows partition active? If I do it myself that I would not be able to access?

    Is this partition created by Dell or have I not this option with a non - OEM Windows copy as well?

    Hello VYOAMA

    You are right that the boot loader is located on the active partition.

    Your next question how it load windows? Instructions in the bootloader show

    When windows is located on the disc and load it where. The old directory of BACK

    has almost disappeared since the bootloader it uses and compensate for finding things on the disk.

    Your next question about Dell implementation active Windows partition? Yes, and on some systems

    and not on others. Your next question to yourself and that you would not be able

    to access? One thing you cannot access is back at the factory. Once the connection between

    Partition and windows partition recovery is broken cannot use F8 to recover the original image.

    Your next question, yes Dell partition configuration, but it is a version of Microsoft Windows and you can

    Create your recovery partition, the system, the partition to the OS partition and set the place in several ways.

    Hope this answer some of your questions and always back up your computer before changing

    things.

    Hello
    As suggested by Rod it sounds as if you may have several EUL in the same prod73. Try to connect again, but this time go to tools | Options and click the EUL. It is the last tab on the right side and you may need to click the button to the right (next to connection) several times before seeing the EUL tab.

    Under the EUL tab, make sure that the EUL you want to connect is selected. If it is bad you will need to change it, click on the OK button and then reconnect to the database using file | Connect to the database.

    This time you must point to the right EUL.

  • Lenovo 3000 N200 - cannot access Rescue and Recovery - MBR poss problem?

    I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 sick who was running XP home. I could not start XP and can only access the Rescue and Recovery utility in the Lenovo recovery Partition that would be to rebuild the hard drive to factory settings IE. Windows XP with no data. I managed to copy the data using a Paragon backup cd and then made the fatal mistake of attempting a repair MBR, which was a very tempting option on the Paragon rescue cd. Now, not only it does not boot to XP, but I can run is even more Rescue and Recovery to reinstall XP which is the problem!

    If I boot with windows install disc and take the option recovery console it stops, statement that "recovery console could not find the hard drives connected to your computer. Setup cannot continue. "

    I was wondering if someone another backup MBR restore could help me with this?

    So, if someone has a Lenovo 3000 N200 work and is willing to try to save the MBR to send it to me, then please get in touch. It is probably useful to make a backup for yourself where the same problems happen to you!  In my view, there are a bunch of programs that backup the MBR for example MBRtool, MBRWizard and so on.

    Any ideas, offer accepted with gratitude.

    Yes I know I could buy the Lenovo recovery disk, but it is a matter of principle for me avoid paying £50 or so if I can avoid it! We'll see if we can help here...

    Thank you

    I am pleased Andyp!

    The solution was to set the primary partition to inactive and value the recovery partition Active, then restart and use the Lenovo Care button (now finally works) to access the function of recovery so I could return the laptop to factory State.

    No doubt there are plenty of ways to do it, but the approach I took to solve this problem is released under

    1. use another PC to download Paragon backup and restore (I actually used the trial edition now but the free edition may have a similar feature)

    2nd burn a CD bootable backup and recovery 10.0.

    3. start the CD Lenovo, and after a long wait, a menu should appear with 11 options, the first of them being Paragon backup and restore.

    4. Select Paragon backup and restore.

    5 select properties in the pick a task window and you will see two partitions, a big enough (in my case Go 143, called Preload) and the other is quite small (6 GB called SERVICEV001).

    Note: this is an opportunity brilliant to use the Back Up Partition option to make a backup on external drive USB of the two partitions as the reconstruction of the hard drive with Lenovo Care button you will lose all data.

    6 right-click the partition preloads and select Edit and set idle

    7. made the SERVICEV001 partition right click and select Edit and set the Active

    8 remove the backup and recovery of CD and put it somewhere safe

    9. restart the PC and Lenovo Care button (might be called something different) should now work, allowing you to restore the hard drive to factory settings which will erase all data of a personal nature. You did a backup?

    10 Windows should then start as usual, reinstall Paragon backup and restore, and restore your data.

    Finally, look at this as a lesson to

    (a) you get a writable DVD and use the Lenovo menu under windows to create a floppy disk from Lenovo rescue and recovery started.

    (b) use Paragon or equivalent to create copies of images of each partition and ordinary differential copies of the primary partition.

    I hope this will help other owners who have a hidden rescue for example partition. IBM and HP and would like to receive feedback.

    Finally, I must acknowledge assistance patient e-mail provided by Taisia Smirnova Paragon support by offering me this solution.

  • executable files: cannot access the file because it is being used by another process

    Hello
    I created a file named test.bat on my desk
    baptized "test.bat" and sent the notebook, wrote "REM" and recorded.
    so, I closed my notebook and reopened, has added another "REM" and saved the file again.
    then I tried to rename, move the file to another folder and delete
    everything went without any problems.

    But if I create the file and run it, the command prompt will appear for a while and then disappear.
    I can rename or move the file without any problem,
    But if I try to edit the file in Notepad, I get this error:

    The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

    and the file is not saved.

    also, if I try to delete the file, it seems to be deleted until I press F5, the file appears again.
    When you try to rename/move this new file, I get another error:

    You need the permission of the administrator of the computer to make changes
    in this file

    It seems the file is opened (or if I choose to delete) after a few minutes, then it is not if I try to access
    the file (I kept pressing F5 every few seconds for 15 minutes and the file is missing)
