Tecra A8 repartitioning or reinstall from scratch

Salvation & All Good day,

This is my first post here and I need help for my new Tecra A8-185. The seller has delivered the laptop with a single partition of 100 GB while I like to keep the 2 partitions (partition system & data partition).

It is directed by the suggestion of one of the Oracle products. Can anyone suggest how to on this subject? Is there a way to reduce the size of the existing partition or do I have to delete the existing partition & reinstall entire OS? I only produced Recovery DVD with Tecra.

What happened to these utilities Toshiba & Bundle software provided only at the disk and there is no media?

Any suggestions / ideas?
Thank you very much.

Hello Vivek

If your laptop is not yet configured for your work I recommend using recovery media and use the CONFIGURATION option to create two partitions. The OS will be installed on the first. After having done that, you can configure OS for your own needs.

In my view, it is certainly more simple and easiest way.

  • Can not find card his after clean reinstall from scratch for 32-bit vista from 64

    Hello everyone,

    Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me with this frustrating problem.

    I did a clean reinstall from scratch from vista 32 bit vista 64.   None of my goodies (mp3 player, phone... all unfortunately outdated) played on the 64 version.  That's why I nuked it.

    Resettlement has worked like a charm, except that now I can't get anything external outlets, which worked fine before the reinstall.  I used all aspects of the Device Manager and checked for downloads on each.  When I go to sound devices, it lists the sound card as "device high definition audio" and said that the software has been updated.

    The internal speakers are the delicious Altec Lansings... and they work fine.  In fact, when I plug something into the headphone Sockets, they continue to work.

    Therefore, I'm trying to find the name of the card its installed on my build and then find the driver for it.

  • Fully formatted my Sansa Clip, in any case I can reinstall the firmware from scratch?

    I've deleted some songs using a Mac but noted they were still playable from my sansa and when I plugged on a PC the files not found so I decided it would be a fine idea to format the thing and reinstall from scratch.

    I'm having a little trouble finding how do and now starting to worry that my pure idiocy has ruined my sansa clip for me.

    I was running Rockbox when this whole thing started, if that helps at all.

    Hello

    In your other thread, you said that your XP CD is damaged.

    The manufacturer normally gives you one way or the other to reinstall; not both.

    If you had a recovery partition, this is the information:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?CC=au&LC=en&docName=bph07145#N296

    1. Turn on the computer.
    2. Just after the first screen display (the display of the logo), press the F10 key repeatedly until a recovery menu appears.
    3. etc.

    See you soon.

  • Reinstall Windows 7 from scratch on Area 51 ALX

    Hi again all,

    So, I just bought a new area 51 R2 (not upwards and turns yet, but I'll be sure to change my signature to the new machine in due course!) and need to restore my machine with a fresh install of W7 before I sell it on.

    My machine was purchased as a refurb almost new that I got from the selling company to install W7 to before they shipped it. I don't have a recovery partition or DVD (although even if I did, they would put Vista on), so I need to start from scratch. I have a W7 ISO and obviously valid an OEM key. This works because I had to do an excessive installation of W7 a few weeks ago that things started to go wrong.

    I remember correctly see the instructions here on how to re - install from scratch, who went into the details on how to add drivers and in what order, but I can't seem to find it.

    Can someone point my in the right direction? Thank you! :)

  • How can I reinstall Windows on a new drive without starting from scratch?

    I have XP installed on a FAT32 32 GB to a 160 GB HARD drive partition.  I ran out of the room into the partition and want to delete the partition, wipe the drive and start over with him as a single partition NTFS drive.  Is there a way to preserve XP installed by copying an image to another 160 GB drive installed in the machine, rather than starting from scratch? The same question would apply if I decide instead to upgrade to a larger HARD drive.  Thank you.

    Because the FAT32 and NTFS file systems are different, you will need boot from scratch and do a "clean install" Windows XP

  • Reinstalled Windows from scratch the Folio 13... minor features missing now.

    Hi have a new Folio (model 13-1035us) and I wiped the drive and reinstalled from packaged shrink-wrap Windows 7 Professional (x 64).  I downloaded all the drivers of your web site (and some came from Windows Update too I think).  So far so good, but there are two things:

    (1) before I did, in the original factory configuration, when I pressed volume keys + /, for example, a litte chart would appear on the screen, confirming what I'm doing. I don't see those now. Is there some setting I can do that handles this? Or am I missing another driver?

    (2) the meaning Cool app that I downloaded from your web site does not install. Does? I'll miss it?

    Your message was clearly not your comments to Microsoft Answers web site, so I moved it on the Feedback forum to "Install, upgrade and activate" windows forum.  Please return to your message, click the button change under it, change the menu Windows Version dropdown to indicate which version of Windows you are using, and then click on submit.  People can help better if they do not have to guess your version of Windows.

    Your best bet is to reinstall WIndows from scratch using the original Windows installation kit or factory restore disks supplied with the PC when your purchased people.  If she did come with a restore or the Windows installation disk drive, it came with a partition on the hard drive and the software to allow you to create the restore disks yourself.  Which will ensure that none of their remains.

    If you want to share data or peripherals between two PCs, you will need a LAN.  If you have internet access, then you already have a local area network.  Your ADSL access may or may not have a router provided with the equipment to access, but if it isn't you can easily add a.  The Knowledgebase Microsoft have some tutorials that describe how to configure a network home.

  • I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?

    I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?

    If you have purchased a retail package, it should include the disk for Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Otherwise, you can download a backup copy at the following link and use the same product key that allows you to enable the 32-bit version. Its a possibility, you may need to reactivate by phone, see below for instructions:

    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  • Can I re - install from scratch with my existing license?

    Hello world. I'm a newbie here!

    I intend to rebuild my Mac from scratch - reinstall the OS and all what it. I have Fusion 4.1.3. Can I reinstall (I still have the DMG file) and apply the same old license key, or it will complain that this key is already registered and prevent reinstall it?

    Thank you all!

    You can reinstall and use the same license on the same mac machine. Fusion will accept the license without complaining.

  • Update 4.0 or start from scratch with 4.1?

    Here's my current context:

    vCenter 4.0 & customer 162856 to build running on a physical server with Windows Server 2003 32-bit.

    vCenter Update Manager DB and (everyone) are on separate physical server to SQL 2005 64-bit Windows Server 2003 R2 64-bit

    -Production Cluster running 3 ESX 4.0 Build 164009, 8 virtual machines running all the updates with the v7 hardware VM and VM Tools

    -1 ESX 4.0 Build 164009 (without clusters), run 1 machine virtual update with material v7 VM and VM Tools

    -1 ESX 3.5 Build 110268 (without clusters), current enforcement 6 VM with a hardware VM and VM Tools v4

    -1 ESX 3.5 Build 110268 (without clusters), current enforcement with a hardware VM and VM Tools 7 VM v4

    * After upgrade, I add a host ESX 4.1 extra (new installation) to create a 2nd group for DMZ using one of the above mentioned existing nonclustered hosts.  My total environment after upgrade will be is a small with only 7 guests and a total of 24 VM

    OK, I start over from scratch with the vCenter 4.1 instead of upgrade.  A few reasons for this is that these latest changes to my vCenter caused problems that more in VMware communities say a uninstall/reinstall their problems solved.

    These changes are the following:

    1. I installed the Client on an existing vCenter Server 4.0 4.1 vSphere.  I had some minor issues and found this shift of the versions is not good, so I uninstalled 4.1 and kept 4.0 client.  It was not great thing and resolved as far as I'm concerned.

    2. I changed my existing VUM by a local account SQL & SQL authentication to a domain account using Windows authentication.  As I made this change I get errors at the launch of the customer following plugin VUM.  I watched many messages on this problem and again the end result is a reinstall or replace as it was that I don't want to because I have the most secure option of Windows authentication.  It has become a pain in the neck and I tried to make sure that everything worked as it was before I have to start the reconstruction of vCenter for 64 - bit and take the existing databases, etc., but now it seems as if it would be better to start from scratch.

    Now, the things I did when I first installed VMware I would change are:

    1. instead of using 2 databases separate for vCenter and VUM, I would use rather than a database because my environment is very low and this option is recommended for large scale environments.  Initially, I would have not took care to keep the two, but the previous problems described above with my Crossover makes me want of it clear and start over again because I just used it in the past, it's a very small database.  I intend to use it more once I come to vCenter 4.1.

    2. I rebuild my server vCenter existing that is running Windows Server 2003 32-bit to a Windows Server 2008 64-bit, so if I start from scratch that do exactly I lose my existing vcenter database?  Just the configurations that I have with my cluster and individual ESX hosts?  I thought I can just add them in vCenter as before and just make sure it is everything what it was before... again... not a big problem since I was a very small environment.

    Thoughts?

    I would like to start with a new configuration of vCenter server, unless you use vCenter features such as vDS. The only things you lose are cluster settings (HA, DRS, resource pools,...) as well as historical data and Crossover settings.

    However, I keep the vCenter (with vCenter services disabled) and let the 3.5 on this virtual machine license server until you have upgraded 3.5 hosts. This way you can avoid the installation of the old license on the new vCenter Server Server server.

    Also, I'd install the vCenter DB and the DB VUM as separate databases!
