  Hello

  ·        Did you do a clean install of Windows Vista without formatting?

  ·        How many letters pilot are there on the system, for example C:\, D:\?

  ·        The number of records your C:\ drive?

  Open C:\ drive and select all the files that are present and check what size is (of all files). Let us know the size.

  If you did a clean installation without formatting then, it may be a folder named windows.old. If you have the folder on the system, then follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

  Enable or disable Windows Firewall
  
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
  NOTE: Turn off Windows Firewall might make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.
  You can see the following link to disable the Antivirus installed on your computer software.
   
  Disable the anti-virus software
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
  NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks

  Please follow these recommended steps and post if you still experience the problem. I'd be happy to help you further.

• It does not start after you install windows 7 on an SSD without going into the bios and clicking on the reader.

  Will change the bios fix it?  If yes how?

  CharlesR salvation,

  This concern is usually caused by an incorrect configuration of the BIOS of your device settings. If you have recently installed Windows 7, then most likely the boot priority is always set to the optical drive or USB (depending on which you have used in the installation of Windows 7).

  The BIOS settings are dependent on the manufacturer of your device, this is why we invite you to contact the manufacturer of your device for assistance by changing its settings.

• HP Envy 17 t-j100: where is beats? And the sound is bad after you installed windows 10

  So I installed windows 10 when he pulled out a few months back. When I install my audio beats is completely left! As this laptop is shipped with it. He was the symbol engraved on it so the reason that this laptop was so expensive in the first place with audio beats adding (I know that Hp has probably had to buy the rights or something and so increase the price). That being said, my audio beats went and my sound is too bad. As the volume is low (yes I made sure it's not muted and checked my sidebar, you know one next to the time on the screen and also the video player or the music I listen too and also the audio Manager but nothing is). Also, my audio changed too. It used a different name that according to me, but after the update is "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC". I've also updated my driver, but even once, nothing worked.

  Hello

  Try the following.

  Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R

  In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

  In Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

  When you are finished, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp63001-63500/sp63408.exe

  When the reinstallation of Chipset is finished, stop the laptop.

  Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

  When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right click on IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  When he finished, restart the computer again and let windows to load completely for a few minutes before checking it in.

• S5-1060 casing dvd player does not recognize the Bluray disks after you restore windows 7

  I have a s5-1060 casing with a HP DH12E3LH bluray player, recently the computer was so I took out the restore disks and just do a fresh install of windows 7, it works fine now, BUT the only thing I can't understand is why my bluray in unity player not to see, recognize or play blurays now.

  The Device Manager shows the best drivers are already installed (21/06/2006 microsoft 6.1.7601.17514 driver), and he will play CD, DVD, just does not recognize a bluray disc.  I might say, we watched top of 25-30 movies on it so I 'hope' is not burned or something altogether.

  It indicates that the device is working properly in Device Manager he calls it a cdrom drive (not sure if it matters), but with a bluray in the drive, it shows under properties / status / no media in the drive.

  I'm not really sure where to start on this, drivers seem strange to be so old, is it a firmware I can update if so where can I get that info, I went to the hp site let it detect the computer saw the driver updated but nothing which was directly related to the cdrom drive.

  Thanks for any help on this just stumped at this point, as it was working before the full restoration to the computer using the recovery disks, then there must be something simple.

  Hello FTLOSM,.

  I understand that after making your computer your Blu - ray discs won't play in Windows 7. I'm you provide a document from HP support: solve the DVD and Blu-ray movie problems (Windows 7) that will guide you through the troubleshooting steps to resolve this problem. I would focus on the topic impossible to watch movies in Blu-ray 3D. I am also you provide the link to the Drivers of HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1060 desktop PC page.

  I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

• After you install Windows Live Mail, he keeps trying to attribute the .eml file type to itself.

  On my office workstation (Windows Server 2008 R2), I use Outlook 2010 to network and business-related emails.  I installed Live Mail 2011 for my personal mail (hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc) in order to keep it separate and open it only once or twice a day.  I said to Live Mail was not the client by default, but all 60 seconds or so he tries to assign the .eml file type to itself in any case (even if it is not running).  I've got WinPatrol keeping my setup, but I don't want to say no to him, "do not allow this change" once per minute.  How can I send live to accept his secondary position and stop trying to run away with the .eml file type?

  original title: let my Filetype Alone!

  There is no default program to manage the eml file type in Server 2008 R2, and is not one that is recognized by Outlook.  I would suggest you go ahead and set the eml file type opened by WLM under control panel | Default programs.  Then you can leave it alone, I hope.  If not, then ask in the forum here WLM: www.windowslivehelp.com

• After you install Windows XP service pack 2 on my computer the disc cd player no longer works. In addition, my printer will not work.

  • After that I put a disc in the drive it will reopen its doors.
  • I get no response when I try to print, as many ways as I can think, I used.

  If you go to the computer mftr's site. and looking for drivers for your specific model computer, they will be good. If there is a choice (as it often is with Dell machines for example), if you happen to download the wrong driver he just would not install or wouldn't work. No grand. But given that your computer is running, open the Device Manager and write the names/models of your hardware first. Then you'll know if you have an Intel card or a wireless Dell (for example). If the update of drivers will solve your problems I can't say because obviously I can't see and test your computer for myself. But it should not damage the computer. If you're worried, take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place) and have them tested and secure it.

• After you install Windows XP on my system, I can't activate any key in this regard.

  Work with multiple Codes are not valid on my computer.

  I recently installed Windows XP Professional SP2 on an old computer in my company office. When it was over, I started windows update and I was told that my key is not valid. I went into regedit and changed the OOBETimer so that I could enter another code, activate Windows using, I received from winkeyfinder on another computer in the company. This key was supposed to be invalid, so I asked my boss. He used winkeyfinder on his computer and had the same winkeyfinder key returned on another working computer. Then, he contacted an old workman and got two more known keys to work. After entering the Windows activate both would also be invalid. Any ideas?

  If they are retail or OEM, the key can be activated on a single computer. Why di you think they can be activated on more than 1 computer at a time?
