Re do the initial computer configuration
I have a brand new computer that came with Win 8.1 preloaded. During the initial Setup, I used express install rather than custom. I want to start over. If I use the "all delete and reinstall Windows" I'll lose the preloaded operating system? If so, how to reset the initial configuration?
No, he'll just do a factory restore the original configuration. Windows 8.1 will be exactly as you have it factory again.
Press the Windows key + i
Click on change PC settings > Update & Recovery > Recovery > all delete and reinstall Windows

Moving the virtual computer configuration file and work on the clone of the model
Using the VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator to move disks from different NFS data warehouses when cloning a model looks very good work. However, the Virtual Machine configuration file and the location of work remain on their original NFS data storage, not moving with the root of the drive.
If this move not all together, or am I missing a step here?
Thank you
Scott
Specifying the "data store" in VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator specifies the location of the VM virtual disks only. To move the virtual machine, it might also be necessary to specify "datastore" property of "VirtualMachineRelocateSpec. If this is not specified, the current data store is used to store the files of the virtual computer.

Electronic change of address in the initial computer set in place
Hello
My computer is earlier, bought in 2007. Inspiron notebook. When I originally put in place, I entered my email address from this time. My email has changed since then, and I would change it in the computer system. I don't know, I don't know where to look for that apparently. That he asks questions when I want to send an email from a Web site. Can someone tell me where to look for this change to my current e-mail address?
Thank you if you can
Since you marked that you have Windows Vista, it shouldn't be any e-mail address linked to your computer itself. Are you talking about the program "Windows Mail" perhaps?

Accidentally selected 32-bit instead of 64-bit to the initial configuration
I chose accidentally 32-bit instead of 64-bit to the initial configuration. The computer (Satellite L630) came with a disc. If I create a recovery disc it will allow me to select 64-bit or it will create just once for a 32-bit system? Is there another way that I can return to the initial configuration?
What model of laptop you have (L630-xxx)?
Create recovery DVDs and test. You should not wait for a response, just to test it.
You can also try to start installation of recovery of HARD drive, just to see what will happen.http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

My computer is stuck in the loop "Update Configuration". Boots only in safe mode.
My computer is stuck in the loop "Update Configuration". Boots only in safe mode. I tried to do a system restore, but an error message appears that says:
To perform an offline system restore, you must specify which Windows installation you want to restore. For example, if the installation is in "C:\Windows:" should be restored, enter the following command: rstrui.exe/OFFLINE:C\WindowsI typed in the "run" command, and it didn't work either. VIsta came installed on the computer, so I don't have a disc to insert and reboot with. Help, please!Thanks, BenOK, I found how to fix this problem.

So do not use computer for a while, it locks and requires the initial password to get back in. When it becomes available, we've been thrown off internet, or another program we are.
I don't know why Mr. Murphy suggested a system restore. Maybe he interpreted your post differently I did. You have your screen standby/power options defined on too short a time. You can also disable the requirement for a password during the recovery.
Right-click on an empty area of the desktop and click on personalize. To customize the applet opens. Click the screen saver. Change the timeout to something reasonable like 10 or 20 minutes. You will see where you can clear the check box next to the "password required on curriculum vitae... ».
Now do the same in the (Control Panel) Power Options applet. This link contains pictures showing you how to disable this option:

Computer configuration settings vs the Configuration settings of the user - we earn?
Just a niggling question that I can't get an answer for.
What happens when a Group Policy object has some computer configuration settings that are the same as some user configuration settings? Of course applied at startup computer settings and user settings are applied when the user logs on. I just assume that user configuration settings will override the computer configuration settings?
Thank you
Hi Matthew,
Thank you for writing to Microsoft Communities. The description of your problem, I understand that you have questions about group policy that when we connect to the computer not user configuration, settings replace the computer configuration settings. Please correct me if I misunderstood.
Matthew, I recommend you click on the link and post your query it as this category of the forum alone treats the group says http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/winserverGP/threads . If you need assistance with Windows, you can always come back to us and we will be happy to help you.
