Reinstall, will retain datastore and VM?
Hi guys,.
I have a case where I have to "downgrade" ESXi 4.1 4.0 by reinstall.
It will retain the store data and virtual machine?
Thank you
It depends on where the data store. The installation disk will be reformatted (wiped), all other disk/LUN should not be affected. After installation, you will need to register again the VM to the inventory. Pease double check with the installation guide.

Reinstall Windows 7 Home and reupgrade to Windows 7 Pro
I have a Dell laptop, Inspiron, provided with Windows 7 Home installed, but without the installation diskettes. I've also upgraded to Windows 7 Pro. I need a new hard drive. How can I reinstall Windows 7 Home and reupgrade to Windows 7 Pro, without going through the installation of operating system diskettes and without having to purchase another upgrade of Windows 7 Pro or the original operating system?
Thank you.
I would recommend that you create your recovery disk that will allow you to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium:
Creation Your system with Dell DataSafe Local recovery discs...
If its damaged, then you will need to request a new set of Dell:
Request backup discs - welcome to Dell Technical Support
It allows to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium, then reactivate again Express upgrade. Make sure you have your Windows 7 Professional key on-site. If you do not, make sure that you pick up before the deletion or the format of the player:
Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Professional on demand, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional your files, programs and settings retained.

How can I reinstall the Task Manager and monitor resource for Win 7?
I saw a lot of similar questions to mine and problems are resolved for the most part because the person is running in mode 'tiny' in the Task Manager. And, while the problem of the poster has been resolved, I must still be able to find an answer that actually answered the question: how to reinstall a task manager and resource monitor?
I don't want to seem rude or obnoxious, but that's all I really need to know. Is it possible to reinstall the Task Manager and resource monitor and how - what is done?
For a more easy, please take the following response,
I am running Windows 7
Parts of the the Task Manager and resource monitor will not run correctly (it isn't tiny mode, everything seems as it should be, they are just not all the work)
I did a lot of research and analysis and virus check
I do not have a file to restore good system (whatever the reason)
I decided that I have to reinstall the program
So my question is simple: how to reinstall a task manager and resource monitor? I can't find a download for it on the Microsoft.com site file; Maybe it's there, but I'm not.
Please don't bother spending time trying to figure what's wrong with my system, you will lose your time (this is the part where I'm really NOT trying to be rude, but I tell you the truth). I did the analysis, controls, etc. etc. I just need to reinstall.
So please, could someone just tell me how to reinstall only the Task Manager and resource monitor. I don't want to have to reinstall the whole system. It seems to me that it is not necessary; It's only two programs. It is possible and if so, how?
I thank very you much for any help. I hope that was clear, so no one loses time on it unnecessarily.
You are welcome.
There is no download for them because they are part of the full operating system.
See you soon.

Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
company that created the driver and more.

the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
This will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
you have.Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
Site of the manufacturer here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
REBOOT after each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR

Please note that Windows 7 Release Candidate is a preliminary version of Windows and should not have has been used as a release candidate.
However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

Now that I've updated to El Capitan, my Brother DCP will not work and I can't find a driver update. Everyone finds something?
Here are the current models of Brother products which are supported.
http://support.brother.com/g/s/ID/OS/Macintosh.html
If your model is supported drivers will be on this page. Otherwise, contact the manufacturer and see if they have a driver for your printer from specific model for this OS. Otherwise, you may need to downgrade to a previous operating system from a backup Time Machine or a downgrade for compatibility, if it is not offered by the brother of your device to model on a computer running OS 10.11.
Apparently not all printers DCP mind are compatible, but most that were compatible with the OS 10.10.x always conform to their page.
