Hello

I tried my best to set these for you below. There are several recovery partitions which may have been created when you updated the operating system. Let me know if you have any questions.

500 MB - health (Partition EFI system) - is a partition on a data storage device that is used by computers by adhering to the Extensible Firmware Interface UEFI (Unified). When a computer is turned on and started, UEFI firmware load files stored on ESP to start installed various utilities and operating systems.

40 MB - health (Partition OEM) - The OEM Partition is your recovery partition. That's where the Windows image is stored (this partition contains the Windows operating system, there are no drivers, system and applications).

750MB - health (recovery Partition)-another recovery partition, it probably contains a previous installation of Windows.

109, 63 GB - health (Boot, a primary Partition) - a boot partition is a partition that contains the Windows operating system files, which are located in the folder of Windows files.

450 MB - health (recovery Partition) - another recovery partition, it probably contains a previous installation of Windows.

7, 78 GB - health (recovery Partition) - it looks like the system recovery image that can be used with the Alien Respawn program. You can use this partition to restore the system to factory settings (this partition contains the operating system, the system drivers and Alienware delivered applications preinstalled on the computer).

  • Alienware 15 R2 SSD

    I recently bought Alienware 15 R2. I've already replaced Hitachi 7200 RPM HARD drive on port SATA-3 with Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB SSD and performance is very good. Now I need to upgrade 250 GB SSD Toshiba SSD because she is not to score with IOPS / s writing very low the next Samsung 960 2 TB (EVO or Pro). I know he can. But my question is can I keep my Toshiba SSD also as boot drive while making new 960 2 TB of hard drive as boot drive. There are 2 slots for NVME SSD of the form M2 on R2 of Alienware.

    On my previous Alienware 14 (version 2013) I had kept boot with OS disk 64 GB my removing of the Raid array, replacing the hard drive 7200 RPM SATA - 3 with Samsung 850 Evo 1 TB that had the program folder files and put on 7200 RPM disk HARD interface of withSATA-2 DVD player by removing the DVD which is not relevant in today's world of readers of the pen , for the 18 months wih past excellent performance...

    Hello

    It's totally doable. There are two slots, and all you have to do is to install a new, change the boot order and install Windows on the new drive. Then, you can format the old SSD and use it as a storage device.

  • [HELP] Installation of Linux as well as Windows 8.1 on Alienware x 51 R2

    Hello!

    I tried to install Debian with Win 8.1. I always install it, but in the bios or anywhere, I couldn't start in it. I've never worked on the UEFI BIOS, so I don't know how it works. I have the latest version of the BIOS version AO7. My startup mode is set to UEFI, Secure Boot disbled. Please install advice how I should properly Debian complies with Win 8.1. Thank you in advance.

    Pepincz

    Well, this is the story how I installed GNU/Debian-test on my new DELL Alienware X 51. Google isn't much help here. In order to better read this to the end before trying to destroy your PC completely and all the data you have on it.
    What I did re-score available SSD/HDD in most convinient medium. As I had 256GB SSD 1 TB HDD choice is quite obvious. Cut into halves. First half of SSD total rest under Win 8.1 control. Remaining will be used as swap 2GB and for / partition. HARD drive last half is given to / home. As ' / home users "will join me very soon. All the foregoing said must be done in Windows itself. Run to open string "diskmgmt.msc". You can launch disk management tool. Be very careful at this point, you decide to reduce your Win space. Leave enough to charge the couple of your favorite games. That will be enough. Next step - install UNetbootin. For this reason that you prepare better USB key. Mine was USB 3.0. It was a quick installation!
    UNetbootin (unetbootin.sourceforge.net) is a program that connects to Win breast. It is especially explicit. In our case - PC, we need to install with Testing_HdMedia_x64 flavor Debian distribution. In addition, I downloaded an .iso (cdimage.debian.org/.../iso-dvd) image that Alienware X 51, should be 'amd64' - strict test! This image selected as for Standart ISO disc Image during the "UNetbootin" put in place. Then choose FAT32 - to format USB key (right?) and continue with the installation of the bootable USB. It will take time. Restart from Windows with of course that you are about to say goodbye! (And in some cases to all your files too!) But not this time. Press and hold down the F2 key. Restart takes you to the initial start screen where you must unplug 'Secure Boot Control'. With her, "Load Legacy OPROM" is disabled. It is ok. Then change the USB boot sequence start everything first. He'll go like 1-USB, HDD, 2 - nd UEFI:Windows Boot Manager and so on. Revive USB boot with your USB stick prepared by UNetbootin. Debian installation starts in mode UEFI. If this isn't the case - all over again from beginning. You certainly missed something! I describe the installation process. Nothing in it except for one point. As soon as you have finished your partitioning and save changes on hard all your good and bad deeds will be curved stone for centuries and you can't reverse it back! I always note my partitions by hand writing on paper before and AFTER the changes are made, but not yet saved. In this way, you will have right to complete partitioning table at your service with necessary drive letters, partition types and all that stuff. Also, you can cancel and dive to Win harbor without saving changes to the installation process. Create 2 GB of swap, / partition where it should be and do not forget to isolate/home the rest. It's like I do five years of use of Debian. You'll see why, after five years. Finally, make any changes and write them to disk. This is crucial so think blink of an eye! After that, nothing could save you. During installation you can sit and relax. My case it took me 25 minutes or less. And he had no problem with GRUB-loader! If installing GRUB went right you go to start your new system of last page of Debian-Installer. Don't forget to pass changes to the initial screen by pressing F2 during this restart! Bring back only this time boot sequence. 1st boot will be 2nd UEFI:debian - UEFI:USB and so on. When saving the changes, you should get ready to have fun in the world of software Open with Win 8.1 as a backup option which I use less and less these days ;)

  • Siri gives the wrong score for liverpool game

  • Airport Extreme - poor score from Consumer Reports

    In the notes of June 2016 of routers by Consumer Reports, the Apple Airport Extreme was ranked 7th of 14 rated routers.

    Linksys (EA8500) AC260 ranked 1st with an overall Score of 89

    The Apple Airport Extreme ME918LL/A 7th place with an overall score of only 67 & wasn't 1 of 4 routers "recommended" by Consumer Reports.

    I have currently 2 5th generation Apple Airport extreme with the 2nd 1 put in place as an 'extension' of the 1st (hard wired).

    Am currently in the market for an Apple Airport Extreme 3rd - also to be used as an 'extension' of the 1st (also to be wired).

    I had years of service with my current 2 extremes without any major problems.

    But, I must say, this weak side causes me to rethink the purchase of one 3rd extreme.

    In addition to an Apple 6 more belonging to both myself and my wife and one old iPad 3 belonging to my wife, I don't have any other products Apple.  I use Dell computers & have never owned a Mac.

    The qUESTIONs ARE:

    Should I worry about buying the new Apple Airport Extreme Base Station?

    The Appreciation of Linksys #1 is $60 more ($240) that extreme already expensive ($180).

    Is - it's worth the extra $$$?

    Different brands of routers can be 'mixed' and used as in "extensions" of a 5th generation Apple Airport Extreme Base Station?

    Should I worry about buying the new Apple Airport Extreme Base Station?

    Perhaps.  The current product was introduced more than 3 years ago, and Apple did not of any material changes since that time. Because it usually takes about a year to develop a new product, the technology in the "current" AirPort Extreme is probably 4 years old.

    Your next question might be... Apple plans to introduce new models soon?  The answer is that we do not know.

    The Appreciation of Linksys #1 is $60 more ($240) that extreme already expensive ($180).

    Is - it's worth the extra $$$?

    I have not used this model, but another user might have a few comments.

    Different brands of routers can be 'mixed' and used as in "extensions" of a 5th generation Apple Airport Extreme Base Station?

    Yes and no.

    Yes, if the routers are only connected together using a connection wired Ethernet cable.

    Not in general, if you ask to have different brands "extend" the signal of wireless connection to other brands

  • Where is an insertion mark in a game Score?

    Hi all

    In my note, I have 8 percussion in the arrange window. Later, I added a new instrument/track. To add a new instrument for a Score to set the manual recommends:

    Do one of the following:

    Set the insertion mark where you want to add a tool, then choose new > add an instrument.

    Where this insertion mark to show where to put, please? I select an instrument under which I want to introduce a new drum but after clicking Add Instrument input, the new inst appear on a button of the partition.

    Thanks in advance


    X there is no insertion mark. Adding a new instrument in through the drop down insert the next instrument as defined by the order of the tracks in the arrange window. What you do are framed an instrument, then right-click on it - and reassign the instrument you want. To change the order after all instruments have been added to the whole score - highlight the one you want to go - hit control c, the highest point, one that you want to insert above and press Ctrl v

  • Scores of Boot Camp and Windows 10 anniversary of small size

    I have a Mid 2010 Mac Pro with a score of Boot Camp of 50 (46.7 GB usable) GB with Windows 10 1511 on it (10586 Build).

    I tried to install the update to Windows 10 anniversary but he barfed saying: I have only 6 GB free and he needs 20 GB.

    Almost all of this used 40 GB is the operating system is not as if I have no room to play with.

    I googled a bit and thought, maybe if I wrote the update of the birthday of a USB key, it might work, but it seems that it moves the existing build side and installs a new along?  (I read that you can nuke the old or existing version once the upgrade is done, so I'm guessing.)

    Looks like I'm basically screwed here.  Am I wrong?

    (I tried Paragon CampTune X software on my other Mac - a Mac mini - to try to develop a Boot Camp partition in a nearly empty new installation of Mac OS X, but it just kept gel to the top of the machine and create partitions news/broken, so he is no way trying that on my main bench).

    PS After reading the horror stories of what makes birthday to other non-Windows on the same disk partitions, I'll probably hold off further try everything again - would be good to know if I ever have the option.

    Answered my own question!

    I didn't know the hibernation file.  Disabled ("sleep" mode is good enough for me) and got rid of 16.7 GB of ugly fat.

    Fortunately for 24 GB of free space, so now I can wait for the fix "Windows 10 birthday destroys the other drive partitions"

  • GeekBench Score worse slower computer?

    Here's my current 64-bit benchmarks:

    http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/7274906

    And 32-bit:

    http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/7274925

    But these scores are better... with a slower processor and less ram.

    http://browser.primatelabs.com/geekbench3/1103986

    I have a Core of 3.46 Ghz 12 with 64 GB 1333 MHz ddr3 ram with a sata controller PCIe 3 as primary drive go almost 800 MB/s

    There are a few places where you fall slightly below the other criterion of reference you quote interesting. In almost all, you beat the other criterion of reference. Both are running on the Mac Pro 5.1 systems. You run 10.11, the other criterion of reference is running 10.10. You have all the memory slots populated four, which is known to slow down the memory access to as much as ten percent in round numbers. The other criterion of reference is on a Mac with 3 slots populated interlaced in an optimal way.

    Entire perfomance, only a few in multi-core very complex operations such as AES (encryption instructions), Sobel, Lua, Djistra in below the other criterion of reference - all others are faster.

    In the floating point operations, all yours are faster.

    Access memory, single pole are slightly slower, multi-core are quite a bit slower.

    It's possible the tests were not built as the playing field for the newest processor, or changes in system 10,11 libraries have slowed some operations. The difference of memory can be mostly down to your use of the fourth shared memory slot. I would certainly ask the developer to test on these differences.

    Overall, I would say that the performance of the two systems on this test are almost comparable.

  • How can I prevent stretch bars in the score?

    I composed a piece that has 4 bars per line, but it ends with only 2 steps.

    Logic Pro X extends these 2 measures to the entire width of the partition. I don't want that to happen.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Thank you!

    Jay

    Here are a few methods how to force line breaks:

    General settings

    Go to the Fisland project settings ➤ ➤ ➤ of overall Score. There is a setting that allows you to set the maximum number of bars per line. This screenshot I put it at 6 bar.

    Individual setting

    You can place "line breaks" (like on a processor of carriage returns). Access the parts box in the Inspector on the left, then select the Page "line - Page pause button."

    The group opens below with four symbols. Simply drag the symbol of line at the beginning of the 5 bar break, if you want the bar to the next line and so to force the first line to have 4 bars. Continue with the other bars. BTW, to remove this symbol click it with the Eraser tool

    If you want to dive more into the partition editor (very deep), I can recommend my book 'Logic Pro X - détails' which has a chapter on the Notation 90pages in logic. He explains to this topic (complex and sometimes confusing) with great diagrams and unique graphics don't find anywhere else. You won't find an explanation further partition editor in any other book.

    Hope that helps

    Hello

    I am a relatively new user of Keynote and am completely stuck trying to figure out how to make a key part of my presentation.

    Basically, I want to have a score soundtrack audio, for example, three slides, end. Then with a silent, UN-sountracked or two and then start another section has received, in which a new audio track plays behind several slides.

    There must be far from doing, but I'm completely stuck!

    No, unfortunately your phone uses an ARMv6 CPU, Firefox requires an ARMv7 to exploit. Although Firefox may in future support ARMv6, there is no active project right now and no ETA.

    Furthermore, I also did PCmark05 test and the CPU score was only from 1999. I'll run.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello

    To be honest, don't forget the Windows partition and all the benchmark tests.
    Or, why is it so important to you? You have a problem with your laptop?

    I can give you an example: a friend of mine has a Qosmio X 300. A very cheap and fast laptop computer with CPU Core 2 Extreme, 4 GB SLI graphics system. It uses Vista x 64 and that it put only the performance index Windows 4.9 points.

    Also I m not interested in evaluation tests because I put t need so I m happy with my laptop.

    In any case, make sure that all Windows updates are installed and try again. But it's not really important that score.

    Good bye
