• Satellite P30: How to format the HARD drive and install a new OS?

  I have a satellite P30 laptop with Windows XP. I plug myself a new OS (namely because I can't find my old recovery CD CD and OS) that I want to do a re-shape full of my system. Reason is that my system has been painfully slower and slower over the last year. I even updated my RAM to 512 MB standard supplied with the machine to 2 GB, but it seems to have had little or no effect. So my questions are:-

  1] where can I get my hands on the restore CD that has all the drivers on this subject, and any recovery CD to reformat my HARD drive?
  [2] in the order in which I will make this reformatting?
  How can [3] after having bought an external HARD drive to keep files that I don't want to lose, I transfer those of before my re - format?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated

  :-)

  Hello

  You received with the laptop Toshiba Recovery CD! Am I wrong?
  So what s the problem?

  Simply insert the CD and try to boot from this CD.
  The restore CD contains all Toshiba drivers, tools and utilities Windows OS + additional software like Win DVD for example.
  The installation will set the laptop to factory settings, but will also format the HARD drive!

  Up to now, we come to the point 3; --> How do I save the data
  If you have purchased a second HDD and connect it to the USB port and transfer all the necessary files on the second HDD
  If you have purchased only the HARD drive, then you will need a USB HDD 2.5 case.

  Best regards

  If you cannot access to the use of the internet, another computer and save the driver on a CD/DVD/card reader.

  Download network drivers for Internet

  Visit the manufacturer's Web site and select your model (this is usually done in the Support section). You should be able to download drivers for your model if they have drivers for your version of Windows. Download the driver and then follow the instructions to install.

• Satellite M200 Vista shows that the HARD drive is full of 98%

  This problem showed about 2 months ago the system started running slowly and after a bit of research, I went to computer and found he showed that the HARD drive was full of 98%. Then I went and disabled the feature of shadow copy that reached about 3 Gig. After that, the performance was still hurt, so I decided to do a system restore. All reformatted once was good again until a week ago, and the same problem came back once again.

  This laptop is running Vista Home Premium SP1, 120 Gig drive HARD, Kaspersky Anti-virus, it has very limited connection to the Net, as it is mainly used to store and transfer music on an Ipod (20 GB of music).

  Any thoughts? Maybe a hardware failure?

  Thanks in advance.

  Craig.

  Hardware failure is very likely, since you are clearly able to access your hard disk without problem.
  Looks like you are using software that could be gradually fill the hard drive with data, such as a log file, it is difficult to say.
  With the erosion of the space, you might want to periodically check each folder in drive C (right click, properties) and see how it changes for each new session.

  Also clean the temporary files would help such as for:

  "c:\temp".
  "c:\windows\temp".
  "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp.
  erase internet files of Internet Explorer cache / temporary
  deactivation and reactivation then "System Restore" (do this only if you are satisfied with Vista is running stable)

• Pavilion dv6600ev: I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I want to check compatibility

  Hello guys. I would like to replace the HARD drive and the RAM in my HP laptop. I would check the compatibility. For the momemt, I have 2 x 512 MB of RAM and a 160 GB HARD drive. Does anyone know the type of RAM (DDR1 or DDR2 most) and the accepted maximum capacity. Also the SATA port is a SATA I? Besides, I'm going to change the operating system (preferably in Win 7) so is there a driver?

  You can install DDR2-800 modules and they are the most widely available at this point, but the memory will run at 667 mhz speed.

• How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?

  How can I boot from the Windows 7 Installation CD so that I can reformat the hard drive before reinstalling Windows 7?  I have already reinstalled Windows 7 from the CD, but that has not solved my problems.  When I put the factory CD in my CD player, it won't always boot from the CD.  When I put my Windows 7 Ultimate CD in the CD drive, it doesn't always start from the CD.         I realize that the reformatting is not always necessary, but I caught a few viruses (despite anti-virus running) and I need to start with a clean hard drive.

  You must go into the BIOS and change the boot on CD order
  first push.

  How to get into your BIOS? It is not dependent on Windows, but on what he
  motherboard/BIOS card that you have. In fact, you need access to the
  BIOS before Windows begins to start. A common method is to press
  the key delete when you turn on first, but this is not necessarily true
  for your computer. Watch the display carefully when you start first;
  There is often a message here to tell you what to do. If this is not the case, check
  your system documentation or check with your provider.
