    You are able to turn on the laptop and you can see the Toshiba splash screen at the beginning, but you cannot boot from the CD.
    Right?
    Have you tested different CD bootable as drive Linux Live CD or recover from Toshiba?

    Theoretically the question could be just a bad drive but of course the CD/DVD drive could be faulty too if the CD/DVD drive cannot boot from any CD, and then try to clean the lens laser alcohol or cotton tip.

    If you mean that Windows updates are not proceed with the installation, it is because the support of Windows XP Service Pack 2 ended on July 13, 2010, so no updates were available for this purpose since then.

    To resolve this problem, you MUST upgrade to Windows XP Service Pack 3, which is covered and a link procided further to the bottom of the page at the link above.

  • How to copy a folder to an external hard drive with the same file on it and have it just add new files instead of replace all old already on there, as well as to add new?

    I want to copy a folder to an external hard drive with the file already on it and not having to replace all the files each time. I just want to click and drag the folder to the external hard drive and have it add new files I've added in the folder on my pc over time on the external hard drive. It's annoying to have to replace alllll the files each time.

    Thank you!

    A simple way is to use the second copy of Centered.com software. It is reasonably priced and will do exactly what you want. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • sql Update query after matching with the string

    I am trying to reach the query that updates a table column with the value of the other table, after that he finds an exact match.

    So here's the table data and sample to create.
    create table code1 
    (
        codeid number,
        codedesc varchar2(60)
    );
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 1,'R1 CONTRACTS');
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 2,'R2 CONTRACTS');
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 3,'R3 CONTRACTS');
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 4,'R5 CONTRACTS');
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 5,'R9 CONTRACTS');
    
    Insert into code1 values ( 6,'R10 CONTRACTS');
    
    create table table1 
    (   
        tablekey number,
        prefix  varchar2(25),
        codedesc    varchar2(60)
    );
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (1,'1001PAC');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (2,'1001MXT');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (3,'1002PAE');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (4,'1003PCS');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (5,'1004BDX');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (6,'1005PAC');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (7,'1006PAC');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (8,'1007LDR');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (9,'1009LCR');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (10,'1010LBR');
    
    Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (11,'ABCDEF');
    I'm writing a query that would update the value of column - codedesc (currently Null) of the table1 table: after it is a string of column - table code1 codedesc.

    The logic for the match is, - take - 2nd column of table-codedesc code value and get 2 characters. For example, when the string is - R1 CONTRACTS, the string will be 1. (Select substr ("R1 CONTRACTS, 2, 2) of the double). -Output will be 1.

    Now,.
    Look in table 1 for the 3rd position of the prefix that corresponds to the string returned by the query above. So, if the prefix is '1001PAC', it should look for 2 value of figures from the 3rd position. So, in this case it will be 01. Digitally 01 and 1 are equal, then the match is found for this line in the table1 table, so we will need to update the value of the column codedesc with the "contracts of R1.
        tablekey,    prefix            codedesc    
    ---------- ------------------------------------------------------------
    
          1               1001PAC     R1 CONTRACTS    -- Needs to be update with this value. 
          2               1001MXT     R1 CONTRACTS
          3               1002PAE      R2 CONTRACTS
    ...
          11             ABCDEF                                --Null ( No Need to update when no match found).

    Hello

    You want to avoid TO_NUMBER, given that will cause an error if even a line has a number no (except space) in the wrong place.
    Use RTRIM to remove extra spaces at the end of the match_key and LPAD to add '0', if necessary, at the beginning:

    MERGE INTO     table1          dst
    USING   (
              SELECT  LPAD ( RTRIM ( SUBSTR ( codedesc
                                     , 2
                                   , 2
                                   )
                              )
                         , 2
                         , '0'
                         )          AS match_key
              ,     codedesc
              FROM     code1
         )               src
    ON     (src.match_key     = SUBSTR ( dst.prefix
                           , 3
                         , 2
                         )
         )
    WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
         SET     dst.codedesc     = src.codedesc
    ;

  • Value problem of features for the INF with the winpk filter installation.

    Hello

    I use an inf to my driver installation using properties of LAN, but I am facing the following problems during the installation of my driver with the installation of the winpk filter:

    All these changes are made with windows 2008 R2 64-bit Server.
    Pharmacodependance1:

    Filtering software 1) install winpk.
    (2) after the installation of the filter to winpk, I am trying to install my driver certified by using properties of LAN, but it is not properly installed. Inside the LAN properties, it shows two icons of the winpk filter installed on my system instead of one.

    Solution of two icons of filetr winpk:

    (1) we changed the value of characteristics in the 0 x 40000 to 0 4410 INF. With the help of 0 x 4410, it installed correctly through LAN properties.

    (2) we made a few changes in the inf file associated with the certification and we do a build certified "a" and install it using the APPLICATION to DISABLE DRIVER SIGNATURE properties.

    (3) after installation winpk filter and committed a few changes in the INF as characteristics = 0 x 4410, installed correctly.

    But when we tried to install using this inf file(Characteristics=0x4410), without winpk filter driver is not correctly installed, and settings in not correctly updated in the registry.

    problem2:

    (1) when I made an installer using the same inf that contains the features = value 0 x 4410 and install it after the installation of winpk, my driver settings is not added to the registry and also in the LAN properties there is no all the icons just linked to my driver.

    > using the same inf file, it was installed via LAN properties.

    Note: when I installed the same installer on windows 64-bit computer, it installed correctly and icons also comes in the LAN properties, but all settings is not updated in the registry.

    Please inform the desired solution and the behavior of the different characteristic values.

  • How can I get permission to install operating system on a new PC? I provided with the old laptop installation discs, but permission to install them on the new PC is denied.

    My old laptop has ceased to exist. How can I get permission to install operating system on a new PC? I provided with the old laptop installation discs, but permission to install them on the new PC is denied.

    original title: operating system

    My old laptop has ceased to exist. How can I get permission to install operating system on a new PC? I provided with the old laptop installation discs, but permission to install them on the new PC is denied.

    If the installation provided with your Windows computer discs was preinstalled on the computer - it is OEM and cannot be moved. You can move Windows to another computer if you buy the retail version.

    You can move the windows on a new computer

    If it's a full license or upgrade retail - Yes. You can move it to another computer as long as it is installed on one computer at a time (and if it's a version upgrade the new Windows computer must have its own license of qualification). The previous Windows installation on your old computer must be formatted or deleted. You will have to perhaps call Microsoft and explain what happened to complete activation. Turning it on the second computer will automatically be in effect 'disable' the license for the first computer.

    If it's an OEM license - don't. OEM licenses, including Windows preinstalled on a computer before purchase and Windows purchased separately, are related to the first computer, they are installed on and cannot be transferred to another computer. To install Windows on another computer, you will need to buy another copy.

  • When I run the Defragmenter I end up with large blocks of fragmented files that will not move much matter how many times I run.

    The report telling me I need to defragment this volume.  Total of 20% of fragmentation, 41% free space fragmentation 0% file fragmentation.  The last time I've run the defragmentation tool I don't remember this existing problem.  I think I would have noticed these large areas of red and he questioned.  It was about six weeks ago.  My computer worked more slow and sometimes simply hanging.  I downloaded Firefox a few weeks ago, but slowdown problems existed before this and I have not downloaded anything else except a program to deal with DOCX. files that do not seem to help me so I got rid of him. That's four months ago or not.  I ran so many tests I can think... hard drive check... cleaning disc etc...  I don't know how I got in this mess, nor how to correct.  I seems to me just that I close up with a disk full of files that are fragmented if I can't find a solution.  Any help would be appreciated more with gratitude.

    Please answer the following questions:

    1. What is the size of your hard drive (C :) and the amount of free space is left? (Open my computer, right-click on the icon for drive Local (c), select properties and declare what you see in the 'Général' tab for the used space and free space.)
    2. Even if you have the properties of the State open, (c) if the box down to "Allow the Indexing Service to index this disk for fast searching of files" is checked or unchecked.
    3. Right click on desktop, select Properties, and select the tab "system restore."  Is the drive (C :) followed by the system restore?  Assuming that the answer is 'Yes', make sure the drive (C :) is selected and click on the 'Settings' button.  What is reported as the amount of used disk space?  For now, simply "Cancel" your way out of these settings screens.
    4. You use integrated Windows XP Disk Defragmenter or are you a 3rd - party for this program?
    5. What version of XP, including the service pack is installed?
    6. What do you use to apply antivirus (include the version) and your membership is up-to-date?
    7. Have you scanned your system recently with MalwareBytes Anti-Malware or SUPERAntiSpyware?

    It will never be updated for InDesign CS6. This has been discussed to death. Adobe updated the CS6 applications that she could update. Illustrator and Photoshop come to mind, so your conspiracy theory is incorrect.

    InDesign should be re-written from scratch due to the difference in the way it was designed.
