  • Restore the Inspiron 910 to factory settings

    I recently bought a Dell Inspiron mini 910, but she did not have a system disk. I would like to restore settings this is the laptop. Can you help point me in the right direction please.

    I'm having a similar problem.  I had a Dell Inspiron 910 recently (by my in-laws) for my kids to use for school.  I can't get this 'thing' operational!  When I turn on the computer, it gives me 2 choices to start Windows XP.  They look identical, but if I chose the top start the computer to the top, but if I choose one 2nd I get an error message.  I can't figure out how to remove this version broken operating system.

    Then when I get the thing and to the main screen, I get a popup for Microsoft Security Essentials speaks of the end of support for my operating system.  After that, the computer seems to freeze most of the time.  When it does not continue to work, it takes a few minutes to process each order.

    I want to just restore the entire computer to factory settings and start over, but I don't know how.  I tried to run WINNT32.exe, but the computer said that it could not find it.  Help?

  • I NEED ASSISTANCE TO RESTORE THE COMPUTER BACK TO FACTORY SETTINGS

    I have a Dell Vista Home Premium 32 bit computer.  On April 14, I tried to update some drivers, install a music player & even install Vista Service Pack 1.  Is Service Pack 1 bis new section?  I've had my computer for several years and I have automatic updates, so I was surprised when I turned on my computer on April 14, and a message came saying Windows was this important update & I wanted to install, I did.

    Anyway, between all the stuff I did that night I somehow totally messed up my computer.  When nothing would not properly work, I went up to the back & Food Center.  I used this at least a couple of times before without a problem.  This time however, there is no restore point of your choice except April 14.  Anything before that.  When I click on choose another restore point, nothing happened.  I tried to choose April 14 restore point but that didn't help.  Then, to really live things, I decided to restart my computer in Mode safe.  I will never use this option again.  Now I can't get into anything other than Safe Mode.  I ran Spyware, Malware and all the options 'repair your computer' I could find.  Nothing did.  I came on this forum once and the person who helped me finally said the only thing that remains for me to do was to do a full system restore.  He said there was nothing more he could think of to help me.  He didn't tell me how.

    I'm not crazy to do recovery, because I don't know that I will have things then it will fix it, as my Internet service and who knows what else.  But not having not much money right now, I don't want to take my computer somewhere to be fixed if I have to.  Could you please help me to do a full system recovery?  First of all, how can I save my photos and my files, I don't want to lose?  And how do I know what I need to save?  I have a USB flash Memory Stick that I plugged into my computer.  He downloaded the software but I have no idea how to do to get my files to transfer to it.

    And what if I have a virus?  Would I transfer to the portable storage device and then reintroduce the virus to my computer when I transfer this back?  I ran spyware & malware and nothing shows up, but clearly SOMETHING is wrong.  I have a disc of reinstalling that came with my computer but I shouldn't need to use this, should I?  Someone has the patience to give me DETAILED instructions on how to make the recovery, including how to do a back up?  I would love you forever.

    Hi Sandeehttp://supportapj.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?journalid=67E9C215C4BABD6CE040AE0AB5E14F05&docid=339949

    It's way to Dell to reinstall from the DVD on your computer.

    Answer the questions in blue; It is in a sequence.

    And that way if you also have a recovery partition on your hard drive.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    To backup your data: files, photos, music, etc:

    1. plug the flash drive
    2. go in where your files are stored
    3. click right on what you want to record, example: a photo album > Send to > click on the USB Flash Drive(it might be Drive E: or F:)> it will save to it)
    4. Repeat until you have backed up all your data.

    When it comes time to reinstall the data, connect the Flash drive, AFTER that you have an anti-virus and Anti-Malware installed, right click on the flash drive? It Scan before copying the files on your computer.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    After the reinstallation of this Image, you should have a period of trail for an anti-virus; ask here if you don't for a free good.

    And reinstall these 2 programs I gave you.
    You're doing a right click and scan your Flash drive with them:

  • Have to restore the ipod after downloading the update. Question, help please

    Hello!

    I have a large music library on my iTunes and so all my music does not fit on my iPod Classic 160 GB, which is fine.

    I have the latest version (last one that came out) the iPod Classic 160 gb.

    I have the latest version of iTunes.

    I use Windows 7.

    So basically I had no questions for recent years until last week.

    For a long time, I went through my collection of music [in view of SONGS] and placed check marks next to all the songs I want on my ipod.

    It's the way I like it. I have enough free space on my ipod for new music, I get every month so that it works.

    I connect the iPod to iTunes and SYNC my library, and it adds new songs I added to my iTunes library since I'm finally connected.

    Okay - here is the problem.

    Last week, when I connected my iPod Classic to iTunes, I got a saying there was an update to download.

    I am used to what is going on all the time with my iPhone, but I can't remember the last time there was an update for my iPod.

    Intrigued and not think what awkward or troublesome would come from him, I'm agree to download and install the new update.

    When he did download it says that it does not recognize the device (iPod). After searching for hours for help, I finally disconnected, stop, restart and rec-connected my iPod to iTunes.

    He says that he has no music on my iPod. I checked and it was not. He disappeared. ***!?!

    Fortunately, all my music was always in iTunes so I went with my library SYNC (again, I have the titles I want selected already). He said he could only and basically the only option was to reset my iPod to its factory settings. Because the way that my iPod is empty anyway, I thought, fine, so I did. I have restored its original settings.

    Later, I did the same thing after disconnecting. Shut down, restart, clean the cache and the registry, etc and then reconnected the iPod to iTunes. My first thought was maybe I should try to download the update again - since the ipod is empty at this time - what the *, why not - I would rather finish now than get my music on my iPod to be prompted to download new update, and start all over. So I clicked Check For Updates when my iPod was connected to iTunes and it said there is no new update. I don't remember the exact update, but I'm sure it was like 2.05 something, and what I have now (and had before all this happened) was 2.04 or something like that. So does well, no update? No matter what. At this point, I'm SO frustrated - I want just to SYNC my library via checked/selected songs and get back them on my iPod.

    When I went to SYNC, nothing happened.

    So I went to the tab that showed the music and it only gives me the option to SYNC my library of ENSEMBLE music (which is too large and does not fit on my iPod) - OR - I can go through this form on this page and browse and select the ARTISTS that I would like to add.

    It's so frustrating. First of all, I don't want to pass by and re - select all the songs I want to add - the main reason being - he did already - when you click on my library and select the songs view, you can see all the songs that I previously have selected/checked remains unchanged. Second, if I had to do it the way he wants me to all simply by selecting ARTISTS who will not work.

    Sorry for this long crazy question - but basically - how now factory - reset iPod Classic for SYNCING with my iTunes library with the songs of checked/selected, I already have checked - and not to go through and do it by limiting my will and have to select only the artist (not to mention that I did as I want).

    I appreciate any help or insight that someone could offer.

    Much appreciated!

    On the settings screen of the iPod summary (what you see in iTunes when you select iPod), there is a checkbox to Sync only checked songs and videos (wording may be different for your iPod).  Enable (check) this setting in combination with sync entire music library.

    Page 28 of the manual of your system describes how use the built in Acer eRecovery Management software to restore your system to factory settings.

    Doing so will scan all your personal data and when you did, I think you need to configure your Internet connection again since the factory settings are unlikely to know everything about your current installation of Internet.

    If you experience a problem with your system, I think I would fix rather whatever is the problem, but here's what Acer has to say about it:

    The manual is here:

    already created CD/DVD or reinstall applications and drivers.
