TO disks for HP dv7-2185dx
Hey all -
I have a dv7-2185dx, who is in great shape, but I want to upgrade the hard disk with a 1 TB hybrid drive. I installed the hardware, but I am unable to get the operating system to load (windows 7) and XP gives me the blue screen of death.
I scanned the two new drives, each 1 TB and they come back with all the tests taken (fast, comprehensive, INTELLIGENT).
I saw others who have functioning of 1 TB disks, if anyone can give me a help?
Thank you.
Hello:
I have no idea why you are unable to install W7 on this model.
You must install the sata drivers for XP install that is why it is blue screening. XP doesn't have the drivers to 'see' the hard drive.
Please read the PDF document, which I enclose below to see if you can install XP and then install W7 after XP is installed.
Wake all drivers Intel and you can skip the sections on "slipstreaming" the service packs if your XP SP3 of XP SP2 disc.
Use XP to remove all partitions, quick format the partition and install.

I'm new to this would be appreciated all the instructions to update from my PC. Thanks for your help.
Yes the PC is compatible. You can install it as a second hard drive. But to do this, you need a hardware kit (cable), you can buy here:

I'm using Time Machine (1 TB), works very well, but because full starting to delete previous backups. Can I add another (LaCie 1 TB) HARD disk for backups? If so, how to proceed. Thank you!
You can add another drive to accept backups Time Machine... assuming it is correctly formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled), but things are not exactly "continue."
You have not indicated if you intend to add the player to the USB port on the Time Capsule, or connect directly to your computer using USB or FireWire connections. Or the other method works, with the option to connect directly to the computer being the faster connection.
Once the disc is added, you would go in Time Machine preferences (click the "clock" at the top of the screen on your Mac) to add the disk for Time Machine backups and delete the old Time Capsule disk, since backups will go is no longer this destination.
Since you have a new drive, Time Machine will do a new full backup of your Mac and then go forward with incremental backups.

Can I order the disk for Portege R400 XP downgrade
Is it possible to order XP downgrade disk for Portege R400?
Hello
I doubt that this is possible.
Your Portege R400 was delivered with preinstalled Vista. Am I wrong?Well, as far as I know there is only one image of Toshiba for this model of laptop and it s only a VISTA 32 bit ULTIMATE.
But of course, you could install the Win XP clean using the MS Windows XP disc.
There is just one small problem; Win XP drivers are not released for the Portege R400 model. I didn t find on the European driver Toshiba page.So, you have to collect the drivers with your own hands
See you soon

Someone know where I can find a disk for an older MacBook utility? It seems that Apple can't MacBook since 2007.
If you were able to call Apple support (after-sales applecare or apple?) and ask if they
can know if you can still buy replacement system installation DVD of restoration for your MacBook
they could tell you if it is possible if they have your serial number, to look further into it.
• How to identify MacBook - Apple Support models
• Find the serial number of your Apple - Apple Support product
Depending on where you are, some support Apple or Apple Care facilities cannot
be able to comply with a demand for vintage and filtering software obsolete spare.
Some models introduced in 2007 started with 10.4 Tiger (with the version of the Intel-based OS)
and went as far as Lion 10.7.5 as their higher upgrade system. All systems prior to 10.7
usually included a system restore DVD media kit, gray-label of this Mac-specific disks.
If you bought the computer in 2007, it may have been a year of construction 2006 model, in order to
be able to identify the computer model exactly, the discovery of a boot of replacement keys is
DVD that can also be used to prepare the computer for a replacement of the HDD, etc.. The
utility disc on the DVD installation-restoration is an important tool; so is the installation disc & software.
A detail of (if any) the system drive on the computer, if those who took on DVD
would be a bootable disk utility version in the installation program. The DVD of grey original label
media can be found in resale, are used or old stock, published initially with a Mac, new.
Places online like Amazon may be able to provide the specific software package if you knew
exactly the part numbers your computer had when new on these original discs.
Serial number of Mac news - your Apple series number search:

If you identify a number before contacting Apple computers on-line software resellers
You may be able to narrow down. In addition, if identify the computer exactly, there may be some
This time DVD media (exact details, new or used; original gray-replacement of labels, used.)
And finally, if the computer running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and he is older than the date of this
OS X system, you could buy a DVD of Snow Leopard 10.6.3 retail on Apple Store online, to get
http://www.Apple.com/shop/product/MC573Z/A/Mac-OS-x-106-Snow-Leopard
the installation program which has a utility disk in the package. You start from the DVD to use these
utilities include in the installation program. It can also erase everything. If the computer shipped with the
last supported OS X installed 10.7, who no doubt had a key task to install USB, not a restore DVD.
Later computers have their built-in OS X Recovery, a partition on the hard drive which has the OS X
Utilities and a way to go online for the software of system recovery and restore without media disks.

Nobody care may be able to help or tell you that they cannot, on the basis of the serial number.
In any case...
