Reinstall the T61 WXP operating system

Hi and thanks-

My T61 is defective.  After spending a month with Microsoft's Service, they told me that I have to re - install Windows XP (in fact, to do a "Rpeair".)  When I start using my Windows XP disk, I get the message 'Windows XP cannot find a hard disk'. (my paraphrase of a long message)

I bought this computer used.  The drive is a Seagate ST9320320AS SATA - 320 GB hard drive.   Windows displays a single 275 GB partition.  The person who sold me the computer (a year ago or not) told me that all the installation files are on a hidden partition.  The only other player that Windows shows me is the DVD player, d

How can question - I reinstall my OS Winows XP?

Thank you so much your help fair!

to change the sata setting press F1 at power on config should be highlighted Press enter scroll down to serial ata (sata), press enter sata mode option contrller press on enter choose compatibility press F10 to save the changes (you need to do is, if you use a disk to detail MS. win xp) the only way to get into the recovery partition is well rescue & recovery http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=HT002492

  • Qosmio F30-114 - a problem with the installation of operating system

    Hi all
    I have a problem during the installation of operating system from the recovery disk (Win XP Media Center Edition).
    After loading the disc, I seen the installer welcome window, set up all the parameters in it and pressed the OK button.
    After that, an error has occurred (in a black console window):

    Check the type of partition MBR
    Not FOUND: Partition ID 4 is 0x00 not 0 x 88
    Seeking the TMBR
    No found TMBR!
    Fact.

    Disk 0 is now the selected disk.

    Services of disk management cannot complete the operation.
    Specified drive does not exist.

    After reading this message and pressing a computer key restarts and that's all that happens.
    Also I can not install another OS (Win 7 for example), during the last part of an installation, I get a message "the work cannot be completed.".

    That's happened? I don't understand what is the reason for this problem. I was reinstall another OS (the drive recovery too) often earlier and everything was OK.

    You can install WXP using the Microsoft installation disc?
    Set the BIOS on the settings by default and to use the recovery disk again.

  • Is there a practice of the Windows Server operating system environment?

    I'm looking to get some practice with the Windows Server operating system (2008 or other).  I came across the downloadable 180 trial period, but I don't mean to create a true server temporarily.  I'm looking to be able to have a completely 'virtual world' where I can actually add devices and simulate connect with different computers, etc.  I want to create an environment of virtual server completely, not the 180-day trial period where I create an environment that can have real computers to connect to it.  Such a thing exists?

    For example, I used a program called Packet Tracer that allows me to simulate the addition of routers, switches and high-end devices to create a whole network of Physics in a virtual environment.  I can configure devices with IP address and all that I can learn how to build a physical network.  I would like to do with the operating system Windows Server if possible.

    Thank you.

  • downloaded updates for 64-bit os when I have the 32-bit operating system

    About 2 months ago, I downloaded some updates for vista 64-bit os when I use the 32-bit operating system and he did something, I believe, my registry. Now I have problems with my updates. Do you have any solutions?

    Hi batoutaaustin22,

    Thank you for using answers Forum.

    I suggest using the System File Checker to search for 64-bit updates files were damaged.

    The System File Checker tool

    To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search .

    2 right-click cmd in the programs list and then click run as administrator .

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click continue

    3. at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

  • Archiving of Information on the older windows operating systems

    Hello reader,.

    I wonder where I could find old information about windows operating systems, in the context of the source code for the windows XP operating system.

    Also, what is the current status on a user changes an XP operating system.

    As the XP operating system is no longer supported, it would be useful if a user can strip the unnecessary programs for example system essential safety who keeps popping up saying that it is out of date and require an update that we know will never happen.

    Obviously we need to take alternative internet security precautions.

    Security Essentials is no not part of Windows XP, so you can absolutely delete it.  Just go to control panel and choose "Add/Remove Programs", then delete the program from the list.

    You can not access the source code for Windows XP.  It is no longer supported, but it will retain the copyright and protection of the DMCA for decades to come.

    I don't see a WebWorks API for this. If I expected to be anywhere, it's here:
    https://developer.BlackBerry.com/HTML5/APIs/beta/BlackBerry.notification.html#jbo1385148829097

    But it seems that this API has not been fully implemented; It may be useful to connect a developer Issue Tracker JIRA to get this feature added.

    At the same time, there is this API of Cascades that looks like what you're looking for:

    Write an extension for this feature should allow you to access this feature:

    At the same time, a colleague is currently working on an extension that should open many features of Qt, and I think that the API above should be accessible through this extension. He must be released over the next week or two, so you can wait for that as well.

    EDIT: On this last point, see this extension which provides a mechanism for attaching in the majority of the Qt APIs.
