New OS disks available for laptop computer hand?

I think that I seriously messed up my laptop, trying to remove a virus.  He is stuck in 'safe' mode and will only keep cycling through the black and white screen.  It was suggested to me that I need to reload the OS (Windows XP), but it is a mobile phone in hand, and I do not have access to the original disks.  I would be able to buy that separately?

Thank you!

Hey there! You may be able to contact the HP Support to the 1-800-HP-INVENT and order records. In addition, you can visit your local Best Buy and their Geek Squad may have the recovery disc for this model in their library of HP recovery.

  • Copy of pictures/catalogue of desk for laptop computer

    I'm finally to the point where my photos on the desktop and laptops are on the same drive letter and the same exact path.  I only work with one at a time.  The office when the home and laptop computer when he's away.  Instead of using the backup/restore, looks like I can just copy the catalog file and the folder of Photos on the other machine - say the laptop.  Then everything away I could score some photos or import a bit.  Back that I could copy the catalog and Photos on the desktop and it will sync.

    Unless that metadata and other associated information is stored outside of the catalog folder, this scenario seems reliable.  The main obstacle is overcome by the pictures being in the same < drive >: \ < path >.  So, I have both with the reconnection.

    Anyone who thinks that somehow, that it would not work?

    Yes, it will not work if you use PSE9 or later, because the Organizer use the reader unique volume ID to identify the location of the pictures.  If your photos are stored on an external drive, then it might work if the drive is connected the same drive letter.

    If your photos are on separate drives, you probably better using MS Sync Toy

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=15155

    to maintain a directory of photos synchronized between computers and saying to the organiser at re - import photos after synchronization.  Tags must be written in the image files themselves so that the tags to be updated in the catalog of the Organizer.

  • the upgrade for laptop computer with printer

    I have a laptop HP Pavilion 8 new wireless Windows. I have a wireless HP Officejet 4620 also not very old.

    No download and start installing the driver and the driver installation program will then ask you to plug in the printer.

  • New firmware is available for a 915 chipset will support Vista?

    I recently updated my a830n Pavilion to Vista Home Premium to XP Home Edition. I understand that the chipset doesn't support Aero. However, I also have problems with running games used to run under XP. I downloaded the latest Intel .inf files, have not found a driver level later on HP sites for the chipset (running 6.14.10.4656) and tried a myriad other things proposed by other forums and the people including the 'compatibility' mode attempt (not even an optiion anywhere I can find), change resolutions, etc.

    Two things, I've noticed, however. I no longer see the Intel icon in my system tray and Device Manager initially only showed 'generic PnP monitor' for my display device. I have a Compaq FP 7317 installed. I manually installed the software for the monitor and it is now one of the monitors in the device as a FP 7317 Manager.

    The error I get consistently when you try to start chess games is "..". Unable to initialize the display device. Try acceleration hardware setting Full... "I tried all settings from full to low to no change. Someone has any ideas as to what can be done, if anything to solve this problem?

    R2P2, welcome to the forum.

    Because the computer is almost 7 years old, I don't think that HP will provide software updates.

    Vista requires more memory than XP.  I suggest at least 2 GB.  In addition, add a dedicated video card will help.  You should check the power of the power supply unit (PSU).  Then, you will need to ensure that the video card will work correctly with this power.  I think that the power will be 250W.  You can check by opening the case and by reading the label on the power supply.

    At some point, the cost of upgrades will be more that the computer is worth.  You will have to decide whether to save your money for a new computer or to make the updates.

    Note: You must install the patches for the games before playing them.

  • Install the new keyboard in Satellite A100 laptop computer

    Recently, we have removed the keyboard on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100 to clean as some of the keys were sticking.

    After you find the instructions to do this, it was easy enough to remove. Rinse us the keyboard with clear water and made sure that it is completely dry before reinstalling it.
    Now only some keys work about 3 on each line on the right side. Fortunately, enough to have another exact keyboard of an older A70, we have tried to install this one in the place and the same thing, only a few keys on the right side of work.

    We hung a desktop mouse and wireless keyboard and all the keys work fine. No idea why will work only a few keys with two keyboards of laptpp and how do I fix this? Thank you

    If you are sure that the keyboard and cable are correct, there is a great chance that the malfunction of the card system to 100%
