Hello

In addition to what Shawn said, there should be a key you can hit while the manufacturer of your computer display... before starting windows... To RESET or RESTORE factory.

More pre-installed machines have a key such as F12 or something to do.

My HP laptop for example, forces me to hit ESC. It will then display a menu of different options.

    If Shawn method does not resolve your problem, you can use this method:

    2. Start the computer with your Windows 7 repair CD.
    3. Press a key when prompted to boot from the DVD.
    4. Select 'PC Repair' in the menu.

  • I installed Win 7, sis discovered downloaded illegally, ran XP and now how do I get rid of Win 7? Help, please! VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE AND THANK YOU!

    Okay, so I came one day at home to find Win 7 Ult on my computer. It turns out that my sister downloaded illegally, which I had no idea until it crashed my computer. He stopped working out of a reboot, I therefore had no choice but to run my backup version of Windows XP Professional. I wanted to keep the files of windows 7, I had some important docs ther, so I installed Windows XP under the C:\WINDOWS.old file and it works from there, and win 7 is in the C:\Windows folder. I have only one disk-37, 2 Go C, so I need all the space I can get. I don't know much about computers, but how do I get rid of Win 7 files which absorb almost 10 GB on my hard drive with Win XP works well? Win XP is activated and genuine. I heard someone say "Format the C drive", but then I read about it online and found that it could make my computer unusable! I don't know how to fix it! Please help me, it's very important that I have solve this problem quickly, I am sinking money in flash drives and CDs. help, please and thank you!

    In addition, my system is a Dell GX280 series, pentium 4 with 512 MB of RAM, or 502 a 37.2 GB C drive. It has been renovated and came pre-installed with Windows XP.

    The BIOS and Windows are not the same, you cannot make permanent changes to the BIOS settings only.

    When you format your hard drive it will wipe all information off of it (it's your personal files, Windows, everything, etc.), but your computer still won't turn.  Your can configure which devices to start the system turn off the first, so when we need to start installing Windows from a CD, you need to configure the BIOS first boot device to be the CD-ROM drive (follow thesteps to clean install xp).  You must ensure that your CD of Windows XP is in the CDROM drive ready to begin the clean install, and there should be a point when your system say "press any key to boot from the CD-ROM...".

    You can also follow the procedure here a clean installation of Windows XP: http://www.theeldergeek.com/clean_installation_of_windows_xp.htm

  • Someone stole my phone and when I came back, their iCloud account was on him and the password has been changed. What can I do?

    My phone was stolen recently while I was at Walmart. Sprint located the phone 4 hours later (after saying earlier that they could not do it at all) and sent a message to inform him that had the phone that he had been located. The phone was found at Walmart soon after. When I got the phone back, I noticed that the phone has been restored to the factory settings and the password has been changed. I restored the phone myself using iTunes, but now I'm stuck on the activation screen because they put their iCloud account in my phone (I never put one up myself, not knowing that this would cause this kind of problems) and I do not know the password. I've lost all the photos of my son (he was two weeks previously and I had not copied to my computer yet) and voice messages, I have saved my father who died last year. And now I have a rental phone that costs me $60 / month, that I can't use. Sprint said there is nothing they can do. I called Apple and received no help from their part is there something I can do?

    It requires the Apple ID and password of the thief. If you don't have it and can't get it, then the device is useless to you.

    If you are not prompted to use the new password to your Wi - Fi network when trying to connect, you may have to remove the network on your system. This can be done by the following steps.

    1. Open system preferences in the Apple menu
    2. Choose the network
    3. Select a Wi - Fi connection on the left
    4. Click Advanced... in the bottom right
    5. Choose your network from the list of preferred networks
    6. Click on the '-' at the bottom of the list
    7. Click OK
    8. Click on apply

    Once removed try to connect to your Wi - Fi network normally and you will be prompted for the password.

    Sincerely
