• I have an Aspire 571 V3 that I thought that I was restoring the factory settings and save my files for

  Hi everyone, I hope that there is someone out there who can help me. I have an Aspire 571 V3 that I picked up at the factory settings, or so I thought. After all the files had been cleared and the system recovered it restarted and displayed a black screen with 'the installation program starts services' and a flashing light below are progressing. It has been that way for hours eight (8). is this normal or should I worry? In its current form, I have no control on the machine on the touch pad or mouse. I have provided with Currys computer recovery discs, but they are not to be recognized.

  Kalimera

  8 hours is a little too, you can try to stop it and repair the resumption of the process.

  do a long press on the power button to stop it

  at the next startup, press Alt + F10, and then check if you are able to start the Acer recovery process

  If it isn't

  Enter the BIOS by pressing F2 at startup

  enable F12 boot menu if not already enabled

  Save and exit

  put your first recovery disk on your laptop

  stop your laptop making the long press the power button / stop

  at the next startup, press F12, and then on the startup list select DVD/CD player

• Safari crashes whenever I try to enter an address. Update, I tried all the different patches I've seen outside the reset to the factory settings and nothing works. Any help?

  SO, until this morning on my ipad safari worked well. I just tried then, serious in my address bar, type and the app instantly crashed. It happened repeatedly, any fixes I tried. Is this just a problem with the update, or should I take my iPad to the Genius bar and see what they say?

  I got exactly the same problem this morning. This has affected my iPad 2 and iPhone 5 s, both running on IOS 9.2.1

  No solution so far. I restore the iPad from the back to the top at the moment, but I am not optimistic. Will update when it's over.

• I'm trying to restore Vista OS to the factory settings and it requires a password that I never created.

  It is an Acer Aspire 5315 that my mom gave to my daughter. She says that she has never created a system restore point that requires a password so how to do this? Oh, and I have no disc as it came preloaded.

  Hello

  A System Restore Point is not the process of factory settings recovery.

  Using a System Restore Point puts the settings of the computer to an earlier date.

  Recovery to factory settings is to reinstall the operating system to how it was when new.

  Some Acer models have a default password that you use to start the process of the "hidden" recovery Partition Recovery

  Usually press you Alt + F10 at startup to start the process of relocation and Acer default password should be 6 zeros, unless someone has changed.

  If not, give Acer a phone call.

  See you soon.

  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

• apparent loss of keyboard mouse & and features after reset to factory settings

  Hi people,

  I'm at a total loss on the way to the same approach to this situation. After spending about 10-14 days with various iterations of "The Answer Desk", (hereinafter referred to as the T.A.D.) which include planning a recall, which are often late - sometimes by hours. or sitting on hold and wait until you have increased in the province of Quebec, or the chat option - I'd become fond of cat when I had a keyboard, I could use, but quickly learned to hate using my cell phone to push my words, rather type them. In any case, after having crossed more level 1 and level 2, including many supervisors at two levels, I took notice of the last tech level 2 Guy I talked to and called the store of Microsoft (weapon with a case of referral number, or whatever the correct language is for this). I found 2 Microsoft Stores in Los Angeles, CA - 12,000.000 people and 2 stores with nearby competent technical support staff. I scheduled a visit and was told to put my HP 500-281, i3 processor running at 3.4 GHz, 4 GB of Washington. and a 1 TB hard drive (what they & I called my C drive (although, technically, it's more like C: / / or?).)

  Level 2-ADP technology (which had prevailed of my variously attributed, by the countless service customer and/or technical support agents, both case # s and codes authorization) told me thatto take it to a Microsoft Store, I would be able seized technicians who pourraient & would send me home the same day with a machine works, based on my various numbers of cases assigned to me in T.A. I took the tour (by taxi Lyft in all situations which follows) at The Microsoft Store in Century City, CA.

  For those who ignore it the physical dimensions involved here - each trip using a provider of low cost me less than $25.00 each way (from Pasadena to the West away from Los Angeles). I don't drive, and with the weight and the vulnerability of my HP Tower resulting, it was the only way available to me which has not yet put the computer at risk. I arrived and spent about 45 minutes before I got help. The young woman, Cassi, asked the help of another agent, while trying to start my machine. Long story short - I was told that I have to leave the computer for the more experienced technicians analyze. I was so exhausted at that moment that I took another taxi home, although my practice since 2000 has been to use public transport, walk or BIKE only for my needs.

  I was, naturally, concerned about their progress. I work as a shipper of health and building helps entrepreneurs foresight of the restoration and had been lagging dangerously in the accomplishment of these tasks. Some clients have become so angry that a legal action has been mentioned. During the 4 days that my ride was in the Microsoft store, I spoke with 2 technicians that they worked on my machine. They told me that I would get their notes on the way in which the diagnosis was made. I have even voluntarily undertook the task of installation of 'hundreds' of updates because I was afraid that if I left it until the they could move to install updates a lot, a lot, I couldn't hear the store several days more.

  Everyone dealing with these attempts at assistance seems almost unconsciously act as if time is not of the essence, but rather that your computer isn't the central role and critical that do a lot of our computers. They are almost jaded when suggesting that I have simply bring the machine on L.A. 20 miles so that I can place again blind trust in their attempts already several times to resolve the problems, but also their inability to follow through with notes promised to deliver or demonstrations more rudimentary to convince a customer that he or she is winning a functional computer.

  When I got the computer home, I found that, I could just get insofar as the standard desktop Windows 7, but my mouse and my keyboard seems to be recognized by the Windows 7 operating system. The mouse don't not move the cursor that was sitting just in the center of the screen and the keyboard would make only the main directional functions if I had entered the Boot Manager (F9) or the parameters B.I.O.S. (F10) to start-up before the BONE begins to start. I tried 4 mouse 3 wireless and wired with receptors resets attempts plugged into the USB ports on 1. I also tried a cable and 2 wireless keyboards, spent an hour 1/2 with Logitech technical support without result.

  I'm teetering at the edge of financial ruin while monitoring the female for the insurance company above that now all services purchases made prior to the date of the merger, cunning claimed that, even if she had understood what I said pretty much everything the my time invested far more time and money I had to contribute to the effort, she could not or would not allow any level of cash so that I can return to save what's left of my ability to earn a living. I also started songwriting as he is more naturally evolved with my love of the guitar for 47 years, my hundreds of sets of words which are located in personal folders on the computer I can't access.

  One of you truly talented I.T. people who contribute to these forums you will suggest in any way that I could have the computer to respond to my mouse and my keyboard. You people are the best and I look forward to hearing your thoughts. D. Lyle

  : Marielle case - I would like to express my sincere and heartfelt gratitude for your response to my call for help. It is your interest to my fate who told me going in this awful circumstances. I got 2 notice of permanent failure to broadcast my answers you Google, and so I'm not at all sure of you knowing that I received your thoughts and that he continued to try to save me by using your ideas as a springboard to areas not only loomed in my limited vision of the possible parameters of the problem at hand. Specifically, your mention of the ports currently assigned to a device with a USB connection led by reminder of something I read said that the port used for the 1st time, we use a device that is new to the computer, can get a relatively permanent status as the only port that this device can then use unless you actively change this assignment. Made me continue at any position on a Windows 7/loss of any theme of functionality of the research material. As I was delighted to learn from the past, the forums came in BIG TIME! A post spoke after losing both mouse and keyboard functionality after you successfully reset to the factory settings. The person added that he would have found that devices plugged in USB 3.0 entries on his relatively new machine did not work at all when they had recently performed very well. He tried to connect the elements in one of the entries USB 2.0 at the back of his tour and it was the key - they immediately resumed their functionality. I have imitated this difficulty and was immediately very glad I did. I am currently undertaking the somewhat daunting task to accomplish the many updates to the OS 7. I almost forgot the comforting, veiled darkening I did experience the Office of MS, MS, HP store response, and finally, Assurion response, the insurance company who subscribed the Office Depot warranty protection programs that refused to consider even an answer to my dilemma except to the insist that they send me a box and a label for the shipping of my livelihood who knows where. It has been 7 days and counting and I have yet to even see a UPS truck, let alone one with the element which, once received, starts a ticking of the clock to keep their response time of within 5 days. With no packing material, there will be no reception of any element that would measure their response completely lacking in-same-, a heartbeat at my struggle to keep my livelihood. The lesson I'll take it away from this experience is that he is not a corporate entity multinational US who notices even if all life disappeared - as long as our devices robotic that remained would accept conscientiously their "droppings of concern" as evidenced by their cyclical billing continuous and/or automated calls to solicit 'our' biz repeat. I am convinced that our only chance, as a species, to confuse our way to a better future for all that follow is to cooperate with everything that surrounds us - be all of flora and wildlife or the air we breathe, or H2O which maintains the life here in this sweet spot him all that we call Earth. Thanks for your help and your efforts to maintain these wonderful forums.

  Sincerely,

• Pavilion 15-ab043sa: cannot reset to factory settings after the upgrade computer laptop brand new 10 Windows

  I bought 2 new laptops, they seem to be special models not listed is not in the HP support site, purchased from Currys PC World in the United Kingdom.

  First HP Pavilion 15-ab045sa laptop computer 15.6 "-red, upgraded to windows 10 perfectly well and I made a backup of the system while I studied the creation of recovery media (this info must be printed with the laptop in the box, rather than letting the user have to find BTW)."

  The other a HP Pavilion 15-ab043sa laptop computer 15.6 "-blue, for my parents, has turned into a total disaster."

  The two models are the same, except that the first is red and the other is blue, that's why they have different product numbers?

  I was now in a position where the recovery on the D: drive partition is not a factory reset.

  I did not even recovery disks as having the first one to go smoothly, I thought the same thing would happen on the second laptop and I got the recovery disc then.   I tried to create a USB stick recovery, but I had no one who can save the system settings - need at least 32 GB free.

  This occurred as first I started the laptop, made of windows, MS Office 365 updates, added then waiting 2 days for windows 10 to arrive.  When it came it installed fine and then I added a printer driver for an HP printer and made some configurations of the operating system.  At the next reboot showed something was wrong as the boot took over 7 minutes.  As the synaptics app was referenced twice in the tab start Task Manager also had strange things in the system.  Rather than go back to a previous system restore point that I attempted to identify what was wrong and uninstalled all without success.  I then had the opportunity to go back to 8.1 for Windows or "reset the PC.  Not a lot of explanation on delivery to zero and certainly no warning options that the D: partition was no longer valid.  Windows options were "in my face" so I don't think watching HP recovery.  So I chose to run from Control Panel 'Reset the PC and keep the files'.  So, indeed, I now have a clean install of Windows 10 but have lost all applications that were on the factory orginal building.  I see no way to re - install all of these programs and find the license keys.  I have more HP recovery at all.

  So I have no way to put the blue doesn't return to the factory settings.

  Advice please, I want a laptop blue, the same as the red, i.e. Windows 10 with all applications that have come to the factory as well as the correct printer drivers and a time of less than 30 seconds of starting.

  You are not sure if there is anything I can copy from red to blue to get it going again?

  Any help gratefully appreciated, thank you
