Win 7... reinstall question?

But I want only to reinstall my C: partition where windows is installed.

I have the recovery disks and recovery partition, but I don't want to restore my laptop to 'factory settings '. Now, there's performing a recovery system (Windows 7) HP support page, where its listed in the type of recovery: "System Recovery: this option reformats the system disk (usually C, reinstall the original operating system and reinstalls all the original hardware and software drivers.). System recovery does not affect the user created partitions. If there are two hard disks, System Recovery only changes the drive with the operating system. »


I want to do, but there is no step-by-step instructions how do this, and I don't want to waste my time to experiment and research more far.

Here are the specs from the factory for your HP Pavilion dv6-3157ez Entertainment Notebook computer. Please see for general instructions on the use of these recovery options using the system recovery, Factory Reset, and reduced to a minimum of Image Recovery Options .

Please note: Depending on when the computer came out, the Recovery Manager installed on it was developed by two SoftThink, CyberLink, or by HP. Screens may vary slightly, and there may be up to three very different types of recovery options that are available for your model. Not all computers will all have three options, and your computer may not support the 'System Recovery' option.

If your computer supports the "System recovery" option, you should see a screen like below with "System Recovery as one of the choices. If 'System Recovery' is not in the list, your computer doesn't support;

Click on the "System Recovery" option to start the process.

Please note: System recovery option does the following;

  • Acrobat 9 Pro reinstall question (OSX 10.11.2)

    Hello

    A few years ago, I bought a Suite CS5 (Mac), which includes Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. It worked fine until I recently did a new install of OS X El Capitan. The problem looks exactly like this post: Acrobat Pro 9 reinstall question (OSX 10.10.3)

    Unfortunately, Adobe has not given an answer on how to resolve this issue, that's why I'm reposting this again (as it is the only way to get in touch). I do not understand that the product is old enough, but in any case, I should be able to use it – I'm not updates, bugfixes etc. Other applications such as Photoshop CS5 work correctly. Why not Acrobat?

    Any useful for this response is very much appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Hi sebastiank99663506,

    Acrobat 9 is not compatible with Mac OS 10.5 above, please make sure that you use the application on a platform compatible Adobe Acrobat required configuration.

    In an incompatible environment request may or may not work.

    Hello

    I have a pc Compaq Presario 6000 and a HP all-in-one Officejet 7310.

    I'm trying to uninstall - reinstall.

    I uninstalled "add and remove programs" but folders in my c:\Program files\ relating to Imaging HP\digital and many other things

    I also in the registry, files that are HP

    Can someone tell me if any of these files are associated with the my Compaq computer? (now owned by HP) and which are safe to delete in c:\program files and the registry (run - regedit)

    Really appreciate any help you can give to help me identify what I can safely remove.

    I had problems trying to install the software after my computer has been reformatted (windows xp)

    Whenever I tried to install it... it would disappear... so always tried to install.  The icon of the HP Director that allows to install desktop scanning, printing, fax, program choices don't copy never installed.  Although I was able to print from the computer, I wasn't able to scan to it.  I was able to scan to my Mac pro laptop computer wireless... but not for the PC that was attached to the printer via ethernet...

    Hello

    I think Revo is not to find anything because the software is uninstalled mainly and only let certain files and registry entries behind.

    Yes, you can delete the file below.


    c:\Program files: digital imaging, HP Software update. Non-conducting components IOC; Assistant product; Temp.

    I would also download and install ccleaner on the link below.

    http://www.Piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard

    First, run the cleaning utility file and then use the registry cleaner by selecting in the icon on the left.  Click scan for issue and when the analysis is complete, click on fix selected issues, save when you are prompted, and then delete them.  Repeat this process until no questions are.

    Just as an additional note, I always found the free version of Revo Uninstaller to be very good.

    Best wishes

  • HP Compaq 6370b: Clean partition Win 7 install question

    My first post.

    I have a laptop HP Compaq 6370b, S/N [number of Series edited by Moderator] running Win XP and plan on running a new install for Win 7 Pro 32 bit. I have upgraded the BIOS (as suggested by the forum) at F.20 on 16/12/2014 and reviewed messages on the partition for HP tools. My question is when I format the existing HHD I must add a partition for the HP tools? A response by Dragon fur message leads me to believe that the download and installation of HP tools UEFI create a folder on the operating system drive and I would not require an additional partition.  Thanks for your help.

    Hello

    Should uefi tools be installed on a separate FAT or Fat32 partition to work properly

    When you download and run the UEFI software, the installer will give you the opportunity to automatically create the HP_TOOLS partition (if it does not already exist on the HARD disk) - for more details, see the "Prerequisites" topic on the following link.

    You should have used the recovery disks that you created when you received first the computer to reinstall the operating system.

    It is the only way to get the ASUS installed programs.

    Contact ASUS support, they may be able to provide the recovery disks.

  • No sound Win 7 do questions

    I just recently re installed windows and at the first startup was working my sound. When it came time to install my motherboard drivers everything is fine and I rebooted I had no sound since I uninstalled and reinstalled the Realtek audio drivers and tried about everything. I know that the sound card on the mobo is not bad because it still detects my speakers are plugged in windows making also said hear playing, but no sound from my speakers. I know the speakers work I tested if anyone has a solution please let me know.

    My motherboard is a gigabyte ga-800gma-ud2h

    Hi Nathan,

    It would be useful if you could answers to these questions.

    -Did you download the audio drivers from the website of the manufacturer of the motherboard or computer manufacturer website?

    -What is the computer brand and model?

    -Have you tried to connect a headset and check if the sound is audible?

    I would have you uninstall all the audio drivers from the control panel (in particular the Realtek and the other Audio driver installed) and also uninstall the audio player in Device Manager.

    -In the device manager, its browser, video and game controllers.

    -Right click on the Audio drivers (Realtek) and click on uninstall.

    S ' ensure that the drivers are completely removed from the computer and then restart the computer?

    Once the drivers are uninstalled, visit the computer manufacturer and download audio drivers.

  • Win 8 (Pro) - Questions on program files, the desktop icon and taskbar

    Hello

    I just upgraded successfully Win 7 (home) to Win 8 (Pro).

    I have a few questions in mind:

    Q1: A program icon can be PIN to the taskbar and desktop at the same time?

    Q2: Under Win 7, user can easily see all installed programs by clicking on all programs in the Start Menu and select no matter what and copy and paste it on the desktop or PIN to the taskbar task, but under Win 8, I could not find this feature. CAB user to access the program to install all at the same time? Or the user needs to type the name of the program to the search box one by one? How to pin it in the Start Menu Win 8 on the desktop instead?

    Appreciate someone could help me in this area.

    Thank you

    First question: Yes, of course.  You can place an icon where you want. Desktop, taskbar, start screen, at the same time.

    Second Question:

    The start of Windows 8 has a screen view "all programs" similar to the former in Windows 7 (except the new is full screen).  To get her on Windows 8, right click on an empty spot.  If you have Windows 8.1 update, which makes it easier to find by putting an arrow at the bottom of the main screen.

    To take an icon from the start menu or the list of applications and put them on your desktop, right click, choose "Open file location" and then copy / paste the icon on the desktop.

  • Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E - Win 8 upgrade questions

    I decided to update my old Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 PSAG9E-00700TTE Vista to Windows 8.

    After two tries he has been successful. Vista made me mad, and when I decided to give my son, I wanted to work better.

    Toshiba doesn't seem to be willing to support the old models. (over 3 years).

    I can not even find this model code in the lists, the site does not seem to recognize the serial number.

    This is why all the Windows 8 upgrade tools provided are not relevant.

    I met a few minor problems before, but the Toshiba Turkey never replied messages, even those concerning the new products when I considered buying a new laptop. In the end I went for an Asus, which exceeds my expectations.

    I don't expect all support this time either, because of past experience. But I still want to try one last time.

    Is there a way to get the material in this workbook in Windows 8?

    > Is there a way to get the material in this workbook in Windows 8?

    Satellite Pro A300 is not that win 8 supported means that you will not find to win 8 drivers for this series, but of course, you can use Win 8 on this unit.

    In some cases, the municipality of Win 7 drivers would be compatible.

    Toshiba tools like VAP (value added package) to win 8 can also be used, but we must look for a Win 8 VAP released for other more recent models.

    Touchpad driver can be downloaded from the page of the Synaptics driver also other drivers like LAN or WLan can be found on chip manufacturer pages.
