New HP Touchsmart... Try to use backup program.
I just TouchSmart from HP with Windows 7. Try to use the backup program to back up the system on an external hard drive. Goes about 97% then get message "snapshot provider had error.» Check the logs of system events and applications for more information. Anyone know why the reverse does not work? Thank you.
Download Security Scanner:
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Then run it and choose custom scan and select the location of your external hard disk and scanner and see what it finds.
You are able to open your hard drive and copy the files manually?

My program is saying "Error in Script" when I try to use this software. It is supposed to be used with Windows 95 or Windows 3.1. Is there a way to make this compatible software? Thank you!
It would be unusual for a real program designed for Win95 or Win 3.1 be provided on a cd, they would normally have been on a diskette

What should I do?Hi snizorseb,
Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and scroll down to EXE and click or double-click it to run the program to restore EXE file associations. Once done, do the same for LNK entry. That should restore your programs. If you use Windows 7, go to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. If you are using XP, go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm.
To do this, use Internet Explorer and administrator. You may need to restart if it does not itself on the fly (which is normally the case).
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

original title: try to use eRecovery for reset to factory settings...
Hello
I press alt and f10 when you start the computer, however the factory settings reset deletes all data on c. This I mean all software, programs, games, documents, etc...
Is it possible to back up such things as after resetting to factory settings process I can restore them? BTW, I'm using a Standard account, my pc has no administrator account, and it's actually the reason why I want to reset to factory settings.
Thank you!
Karl

Hey redhalls
You are right
a factory recovery erases the hard drive clean of everything
read the information on the backup of your data first below
but you cannot save installed programs
they will have to reinstalled from the original or redownloaded media

try to get the new TB installation to find the backup profile file
At the start of Saturday morning of the PC, Thunderbird has acted as if it was a new install, no folders, abook, etc... Firefox has shown no Favorites, etc. In addition, Win 7 can't find my office at startup. I did a complete restore with Carbonite day overnight. No real change, but at least now I can d/l new Thunderbird and Firefox. yesterday couldn't. I am aware of the problems Office win 7 are not yours to solve; just trying to link the situation.
I finally found my TB of backup profile, with abook.mab and other files, which look like everything is
there in a file * .default. I try to be VERY careful about the best way to get the new
TB to find my default backup file, so I do not lose everything. I read profile move, restore, change.
Methods etc. on your site; I want to just do it right the first time.Any help appreciated.
You cannot use 'My document' as a location. find another place.

The ASR (automated system recovery) tool must have a disk for restoration purposes. The best option, if you really want to use ASR, is a floppy of USB external as suggested by chrisamiller.
You can also follow this procedure to create the ASR files without the floppy drive and then copy them to another location to create a floppy disk or, if you're lucky, your PC can boot from a USB key (I never tried to start ASR on a key, do not know if it will work or not, but it might be worth it) :
"You can"trick"the ASR in the race without a floppy drive." When it gets to the point where he writes on the diskette to cancel it. He writes two files, which are used for recovery, in the Windows\Repair directory. After completing your ASR copy these two files (files asr.sif and asrpnp.sif) to a network location and then make the diskette also. Make sure you update your disk whenever you make a new ASR or your backup will be watered.
Or, you can use a USB floppy drive. It is sometimes the only option, especially if you need to install SCSI or SATA drivers during the recovery. »
a: when you start the backup, it may be in Wizard mode. Follow the link to the Advanced Mode.
b. Backup tab.
c. click on the box next to the drive you want to back up so that it has a blue box.
d. backup media or file name: Browse.
e. Select a new file name on your CD.
f. start the backup. -
I recently installed a new antivirus protection software, now at any time, I try to run a program he's asking me what program I want to use to run it, even for already installed programs. For IE, firefox, etc, it's simple, but when I try to adjust the volume of the system through Control Panel he asks me what program I want to use it to run only and I can not. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

8. the computer itself did not fall down and as FAS as I know, all other programs work correctly.
9. I rebooted several times, but that has not solved the problem.

Thanks much for any help!
Have you ever tried to delete the iMovie preferences? If the elements of the user interface do not, deleting preferences frequently you contribute.
To delete the iMovie preferences leaving iMovie, runs, and then press and hold options and command key at the same time, at the launch of iMovie. Keep now pressed the buttons firmly until you see a command prompt to remove the preference. Confirm.
Before you do, take note of all the settings that you made in iMovie preferences panel, so you can put back them later. iMovie will then begin with the Welcome screen.
When I had a similar problem, the only thing that helped was to create an iMovie library. Probably a corrupted in the iMovie project current library prevented the creation. The problem persists, if you test different library in iMovie? You can create a library for testing.

How to use transfer windows for xp to xp. When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours
Hello, welcome.
The process is automatic and the maximum transfer rate should be about 20 GB/HR. If the process crashes during that long of a time, it's probably because of something internal rather something you're doing wrong.For reference purposes, I included this link. It goes into the details of the migration from XP to Vista (and the basic steps you follow). The instructions are for migrating to Vista via the network, but you can easily follow the steps and choose a different option for your specific installation.http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/migrating-Vista-using-Windows-easy-transfer.htmlFor both machines, I recommend you to prepare for the transfer using the following procedure:1. click on START > run2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom rightDO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN5. click on START > run6. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.7. type chkdsk /r and press enter8 allow the system to attempt disassembly of the volume9. allow the system to plan restarting10. restart your computer11 let checkdisk analyze the file system on your hard drive12. Once completed, perform the same steps on the other machine13. Once completed, repeat the transfer
