TRYING TO DO THE SYSTEM RESTORE, BUT 'NO PARTITION FOUND
I have a HP Pavilion laptop g6, which works on windows 8. I tried to do a windows system restore because my computer is having a lot of problems lately and it is less than 1 year. The fan runs constantly very loudly, computer is hot, there is a process running in the background and flash plugin is constantly crashing on mozilla/I.E. Problems got even worse when I upgraded from Windows 8.1 windows8.
When I went to do the system restore windows through the hp support assistant, it gets stuck and when I tried to do it by putting power by pressing continuously on f11 to get the boot menu, it says that it cannot restore because no partition... Also, I can't do a complete HP reset because when I turn on my computer now since the upgrade to windows 8.1, it seems to ignore the point when I'm supposed to hit esc to the start menu and instantly goes to the start screen.
I looked into this mess partition missing and tried to 'test drive' as suggested in this message, which seems to argue that a partition is missing and gives me know no way to add a.
Help, please! all boards (and please keep in mind while I consider myself rather computer savvy, I'm no geek team so he dumb down a little) would be VERY USEFUL! My computer is too new for this shit.
The document here may help to do a factory reset:

If this does not work for you, I hope you recovery disks either burn you or HP. If you don't have recovery discs you can contact HP Support to order a set. Contact HP

Original title: group policy
When I try to use the system restore, I get "system restore is disabled by group policy. How can I fix this problem?
Hi bluelilly,
1. is your computer connected to a domain?
2. don't you make changes before the show?This occurs if the Configuration policy to disable is enabled on your system, either by using Group Policy or through the registry editor. For stand-alone systems Windows Vista, follow these steps:

a. Click Start, type gpedit.msc and press ENTER.
b. go to the following branch: Computer Configuration | Administrative templates | System | System restore
c. double click on disable the Configuration and set it to not configured.
Note: If the above setting is already set to not configured, set it to "Enabled" and click on apply. Return back the setting to not configured, then click on apply, OK.
d. Quit Group Policy Editor.
e. restart the computer and check the difference.Step 2: Using the registry editor
a. Click Start, type regedit.exe and press ENTER
b. navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-Software-policies-Microsoft-Windows NT------SystemRestore
(c) in the right pane, delete the value named DisableConfig.

Part using the computer seems to have picked up a virus. Another person signed and restore the system. That seems to have stopped virus but when the person initially tries to use their sign on happens c\windows\system32\rundll32.exe message when it tries to access some programs (check mcafee, visit the center of security etc.) when you try to open some programs on the main screen, it says "choose program to open this file" mcagent.exe. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello
It seems that the virus is not completely removed. I suggest that refer you the link to retrieve the computer of infection and check if it helps.

Just got a new Dell laptop. Have restored to factory settings again. I am trying to upgrade to Win 7 home premium to win 7 professional. The first time I did it, it took place without a hitch. But this second everyone, it won't continue unless I turn on system restore. But from what I've read in the dialog box, if I turn on system restore, I fear he would write on the factory saved settings. And I don't want to do that. I guess the economies of the plant are in the "Recovery" folder that is separate from the C drive.
Turn on system restore, if necessary replace the factory settings in the folder "recovery"? Thanks for the help.

I've set up earlier a manual restore date when I did a cleanup, but I don't know how to get back to that either.
XP system restore should only be used in certain circumstances. Why do you think it's necessary?
What do you mean by "I did some clean-up?
There are two main explanations for the failure of the restoration of the system. The first is the presence of malware. The second is a program such as Norton or ZoneAlarm that interferes with the process:

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.

Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

Run the system restore, but has not restored
Tried to launch system restore on different dates in the past and the system response is always the sane who:no changes have been made to your computer. System Restore could not restore your computer about to restore specified. Select a different restore point, and then try to perform the restoration again. I know for a fact that the software has been removed and added ffrom these various points in time? Or restoration is only used for the parameters?
The less obtrusive option is just to do the SR in Safe Mode, since this seems to be the option that solves these problems more reliable system restore (unless something is wrong).
Sooner or later "try it is Safe Mode" will come upwards, in order to see how your system restore performs mode without failure.
Even though Symantec is not installed Mode without failure is sometimes the only way to get SR to work.
If you have Spybot Teatimer will, that could interfere too much, but I don't know if it have an article on this subject. TeaTimer is also a big consumer of memory virtual (any Windows increases the size of your virtual memory pop - ups?) and, at least for me, Spybot seems find tracking cookies, but some people like it big bunch a lot.
Any kind of real-time protection and monitoring your system by third-party programs may interfere with the restoration of the system, so eliminate all mode safe long enough to make the SR, then restart in Normal Mode.
It is also a work that disturbs and extra to turn off your antiwhatever programs and you will also forget to just turn it back on when finished.
Do, or do not. There is no test.
I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

I have Windows XP Professional on my Dell E-310. I got a VIRUS episode 2 weeks ago
and NOW my PC will NOT be reset to a previous RESTORE POINT using System Restore.
Any Suggestions?Spybot SD resident and professional SAS are not enough.
If you have been affected by malicious software, the best way to get help is by identifying. Bleeping Computer has created guides large removal on their site, for Trojan horses, etc. (I hope so, Debbie C think not I just spammed forum, which goes against the "Code of conduct").
Once you get all set (and may require a clean install), you must make sure that you have all the latest Micorosft XP patches security installed. In addition, a quality anti-virus program like Microsoft Security Essentials or Avira AntiVir (both free) are essential (hope that is not considered spam, either).

Tried to run the system restore, but it will not restore.
Hey AnnEdelstein,
Because you can't get the system restore to work, perform a clean boot on your Windows XP system. The guide to that is here. Which follow, and then try again to Outlook. If it works to the minimum, then boot in the boot, analyse the whole system with your Antivirus and other security you have.Also make sure you have the drivers for the keyboard. Search for the manufacturing of the keyboard, and they should have the drivers on their support site. I hope this has been helpful!
