• can super cookies listed in its properties as an MS-DOS program to store in a vista system recovery partition and stay an MS-DOS program if a system recovery is performed

  I may have a great cookie in the folder my documents of the website dove.us.  I have a HP

  Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit operating system with dual core processor.  I have

  want to use HP System Recovery, but I'm afraid that the cookie super (in

  Properties it says it's a 500 bytes MS-DOS program) would not get completely erased

  from my pc.

  Hello

  The recovery of the system takes your computer to a State where you will have just the factory settings and nothing more. In other words, that it will also format the computer in this process.

  So, I'm sure that the cookie will be effacΘ when you do a full system restore. You can check the items below which talks about backup and restore. I also suggest you make a backup of data you want to keep for the future and to restore once you reinstall the operating system.

• Problems with programs that seek to reinstall vista-fresh start

  Hi, I have big problems with vista next to some of my prgrams that worked in the past have stopped working together, I tried to uninstall and reinstal them. I tried to perform a system restore, and it does not work so I can't do a system restore. Ideally I am looking for reinstall fresh vista but the problem lies in the fact that I have no instalation disk, it has not been provided with my computer and now out of warranty. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  The information below should help you:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• If I download Thunderbird, will I still be able to see the emails etc that were on my old system? Or will any new departure?

  I don't want to lose what is already there.

  In Thunderbird, the program is separated from your profile where your setting books, email and address. Install Thunderbird on a computer with an existing profile should pickup and view this profile.
  The key word in that last sentence is obviously "should" there is no guarantee with regard to computers.

• HP Pavilion 17.3: looking for computer Windows IMAGE RECOVERY program 10

  I had a complete picture of software on my old desktop that came with the computer called "Phoenix Firstware Recovery Pro 2004". This program has been fabulous! He saved BOTH OF TIME. It's a hard disk recovery program that you can do a restore point whenever you want, as much as you want. It is similar to the Windows restore, but it affects all of the C drive. If problems occur, it brings back your computer to this day & time in time. Anything after that; is not serious.   Viruses, Trojans, Malware, Spyware, lost the wrong files, lost images, messy music files, programs, bad mistakes, window crashes, Etc is not QUESTION. It restarts the computer at this point good & all returns at the point of return. I had my computer that had started not even Windows from the BIOS come right to the top. You can access the program by pressing the key F4 to the BIOS & restore all restore points, you did. NOW, remember that anything after this point is gone for good, (eg. photos, music files, documents, programs, changes to anything.) So, we must remember what has done or changed since restore point & redo them. But it is worth gold to get this computer up without the need to restore to the day you bought your computer & reload everything back in.

  I tried retrack Phoenix Firstware & can not find someone who knows what I'm talking about. I do not know if their doing even this GOLD one program similar to Windows 10. What I was looking for is a similar program for my new laptop HP Notebook. Anyone got any useful information the same day or a similar program that works just as well, if not better.

  THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING & THE ANSWERS.

  @RobertMcD: Sorry no one not returned to you before that...

  But, what you need is a third-party imaging/restoration program known as Macrium reflect (MR).  This provides a FREE version that can be used to image and restore partitions or drives together.

  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  I've used this for years, since Acronis True Image failed me when I needed it the most need.  I have restored the machines repeatedly with it, and now the free version includes the ability to install a start function of recovery on your hard drive that you can do a restore without having to use DVD or USB.

• Recover files that were deleted from the Recycle Bin

  I need to recover a word file that has been deleted from the Recycle Bin.  An easy way to do this?

  It is not really easy, but it may be possible (depending on whether or not the file has been replaced and a number of other factors).

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• I can create a system recovery disk that gets installed and updated Windows 7, not the preinstalled HP Vista recovery Partition?

  I have a laptop HP HDX 18 that had 64-bit Windows Vista installed, with a Vista recovery on his C drive Partition.  Since then, I installed clean 64-bit Windows 7 Professional of his Microsoft licensed DVD, that I still have.  I kept with all (200 +) of Windows updates.

  Now, I want to create a system (Flash drive) for this laptop recovery disk, but my concern is that he will lead the recovery in its Partition Vista original, installed at the factory.   If I use W7 administration tools installed to create a system recovery disc, it will recover the old Windows Vista or Windows 7?  In addition, it would be nice to have a system recovery disk that had the latest W7.

  I'm not looking to install the drive link below; However, I prefer the system recovery disk to restore my laptop to its W7 system most recently updated, rather than start over.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/installing-reinstalling-Windows#1TC=Windows-7

  What choices do I have?  Where can I find the appropriate instructions?

  Thank you very much for your help!

• I have a computer running VISTA. The CD-ROM/DVD-rom does not work and can not read the CD of the program that I placed in it.

  It won't read a DVD.  It will not read ANY CD or DVD.  I tried 12 different CD/DVD.  This isn't an upgrade to Vista; the computer came "made for Vista" with Vista installed on it.  I had added Nero.  I removed Nero.  I did all the updates. I have not released the driver and reinstalled.  He claims to have the latest driver software, but it won't work.  The computer can see the CD/DVD, but he calls it a 'CDROM '.  It is not the case.  It is a DVD/Cd-RW with Labelflash.

  I did everything suggested that past discussions.  I ran FIXIT program that claims that the drive works properly.  It is not the case.

  I tried to get various programs to recognize.  They cannot see the installed media.

  I uninstalled iTunes.

  Please do not give me the answer of cut-and - paste stock; It does not work.

  Please tell me what to do to make Vista see the media inserted in the CD/DVD-RW drive.

  Thank you.

  continue.

  Reset.

  Occasionally, install an upgrade or a re - install will fix the problem and of course the drive or other hardware issues
  could be at stake.

  =====================================

  Here's the answer, just in case there is something you don't have, and I start up and down.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable
  or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  ===========================================

  You can try an In-Place Upgrade (hopefully save programs and data) or a repair installation (if all goes well
  saves the data, and you need to reinstall the programs). Be sure to do a good backup or three.

• I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64-bit, with 8 GB RAM and when I try to start Zoo Tycoon 2, he won't play, said that I have no memory system.

  I have a new desktop computer HP with Vista Home Premium 64 - bit, with 8 GB of RAM, and when I try to run Zoo Tycoon 2, I get the following error message:

  You need at least 256 MB of system memory to run Zoo Tycoon 2. (0Mo detected)

  Y at - it a patch? I have read many "Workaround" and none of them work. I tried to run in Windows XP compatibility mode and it didn't work.

  Hey tprefling,
   
  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
   
  Right-click on the zt.exe file and choose "Run as Administrator" to launch the program.
   
  See if you are able to play the game.

  If this does not work, turn your computer to clean the start State and see if the fgame plays very well.
  
  To put your computer in a clean boot, follow these steps:
   
  Note: If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We recommend strongly that you do not use System Configuration utility to change startup options on the computer, unless a support engineer Microsoft directs you to do so. This can make the computer unusable.
   
  1. sign the computer by using an account with administrator rights.
   
  2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
   
  3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)
   
  4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.
  Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use to restore the system with the existing restore points.
   
  5. click OK and then click on restart.

  In addition, change the size of virtual memory and see that helps. For more information, see:
