  • Vista Ultimate and no. Windows Fax and Scan option

    I use Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, checking that the scanning device shows in scanners and cameras - status = ready but Windows Fax and Scan is not in my Start Menu.  I think that's where?

    Thank you-

    Hi Pmd10,

    You can type fax and scanning in the start search box and the option should appear in the upper part of the menu, or you can check if these steps also.

    1. Click Start > Control Panel
    2. Click turn on or off windows features

    If the scan and fax option is enabled, try to uncheck the option, and then click ok

    Restart your computer and check.

    Hope this has been helpful.

    The product key that BelArc concludes on licensed OEM machines (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) is not adapted to the re-installation.

    This PK was for factory installation on several machines during production use.

    You need the product key on the COA sticker.

  • Clean install of Windows 7 - partitioning and formatting with a new drive

    I tried two installs with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  The first is a straight out of the box and installed in a laptop SATA drive.  Windows 7 has created two partitions, a small partition of specific recovery and system information, and another large partition to install Windows 7 software.  It is very good.

    Then I tried a new installation formattiing the reader as one big partition.  Windows 7 does not divide the disk into two partitions, only one on which the software of Windows 7 has been installed.

    The question: how it installs a Windows 7 for the two partitions on a formatted drive?  Delete the existing partition and then start installation?

    Hello Askit,

    When you install Windows 7, the installation program will by default create a partition of 100 MB with the Windows partition system. The system partition is created to meet a requirement of Bitlocker startup files and Windows files are found on separate partitions.

    When boot you from the DVD to perform a clean installation of Windows 7, the installation program will create the 100 MB system partition in the following conditions:

    • There is not a partition system on the machine
    • The system does not have 3 existing partitions
    • There is space on the disk for the extra partition

    In response to your question, Yes, the best way to get these partitions is to delete the partition and let the windows to their creation.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you

    Bobby

  • How to format and re - install Windows 7 using recovery disks/Partitions?

    Hello..

    My product-

    HP DV4-5109tx

    Windows 7 (64-bit)

    I have a free space of 78 GBs that I'm not able to use... As when I try to use the "disk management" and right-click on the free space to "format partition" this option has been grayed out... !!

    Please suggest if I can use this space without formatting? (I was suggested for formatting)

    In addition, due to some other issues too I want to format my Windows (and reinstall) IE drive C so that the free space problem can be solved... Also I don't want no data in my other drives to be formatted...

    I have the recovery partition and the recovery disks sent by HP...

    Please help me how I can use them to solve my goal...

    Thank you

    It's simple, as I suggested in my previous post.

    Once you have a drive like the one on the image management window simply click New Simple Volume. Create a new partition called "New Volume". Make a right click on it and the option to format it will appear.  The strips on the 75,38 GB of free space in your image indicates that the selected action will take place on this point in the disk management window. You can change the name for the new volume in Windows Explorer.

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Format Windows 7 and the installation problem

    Hi, I have a problem of windows I'm getting conflicting solutions when I search forums. I have a Dell laptop that I bought in 2008, which came with Vista Home Premium 32 bit. Last year, I decided to buy a drive to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. Last days, I experienced a large amount of blue screens, closures, slow behavior and I finally decided to bite the bullet and reformat. My problem is I have more drive Vista OEM with me and what I read online the win 7 upgrade product key only works if I'm upgrading from a current version of Windows. Both products are authentic and I am willing to share this information to purchase with Microsoft. Is it possible to get a clean install of Win7 key in this case or any other alternative suggestions?

    If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

    How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

    Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

    Click Install now

    Accept the license agreement

    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Click on drive Options

    Select the disc/s click on Delete

    Click new

    Click on apply

    Click OK

    Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

    Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

    When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click the link x days before activation.

    Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

    Enter the product key

    Click next

    Select the Activation of the phone

    Click Next when you enter your key page

    Select your country

    Click Next, call the number listed

    Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

    Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

    They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

    Click next to complete the activation.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • USB formatted on the windows computer and then loaded with the IOS El Capitan files does not work on the Windows computer

    I tried to format a usb drive on my iMac home for use on a Windows computer. I tried to format it on the iMac with El Capitan and format on the Windows computer, but with the same question.  The files are corrupted and do not function correctly on the Windows computer at work.  The files are a combination of audio files and writing.  Is there a way to overcome this problem.  When I used earlier versions of IOS are not usability issues.

    iOS is for iPhones and iPads, but you also state El Capitan, so I guess that's what you're talking about.

    There are a lot of audio formats, many writing programs, so it is quite difficult to determine if this is a problem of format of file or a problem of disc format.

    Even if it's an mp3 player, wmv or any other file extension, there are more for the 'format' of an audio file of the extension.

    These designations are just wrappers that contain audio information. Audio information can be encoded in a variety of different formats and still be an mp3 or wmv. An mp3 player that plays on Windows cannot play on a Mac due to using a codec that is not installed on the Mac. Apple recently purged the operating system of older, obsolete codecs. As a general rule, VideoLan VLC can play most audio and video files on Mac and Windows.

    Were what type of writing files? Word, Pages, TextEdit,...?

  • When you use firefox, a new firefox window opened and blocked to continue using firefox unless I have a fine. I can't delete the page or even let him. Any help?

    The new window is "http://block.policehunt.org/?id=d04201572567089f9b464bbb1b065531". It is said in very rough English that they recorded me have access to child pornography and in order to unlock my browser, I have to pay $300 through some point of payment. When I try to close the window, a pop-up asks you, "do you want to leave this page? IF you click Yes, it flashes and repeats the same pop-up over and over.

    The English used in the message indicates it is clearly a fraud... it seems that maybe a virus, even if I have an internet virus scanner.

    Any suggestions how to "selectively" delete this 'blocking' window without having to reset firefox entirely?

    Go ahead and force close Firefox by using the Task Manager.

    CTRL + Shift + Esc > process tab > select firefox.exe > 'End process' button

    Then open the currently active settings Firefox folder by using the search box of the start menu to open this short address:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    If you see more than one folder, click on in the most recent. If there is only a single folder, click on in this.

    Search for files beginning with sessionstore. Generally, you will find sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If Windows hides file extensions, you can view according to the method described in this article to support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.

    Rename sessionstore.js to something like sessionstore_bad.js file, so that Firefox does not restore this last series of windows and tabs automatically.

    Leave this window open, and then restart Firefox.

    If you want to reopen some of the pages of the last session, you can use the tips in the following threads for 'mine' the sessionstore_bad.js file to extract the URL:

    Success?

  • How much better the partition of the HARD drive for dual boot: Windows 8 and Linux

    Hello

    I am a newbie in Windows 8, linux, Partition...

    I want to use my new laptop with windows 8 pre-installed on the following:

    Create a Dual Boot Windows 8 / Ubuntu
    Create on my drive C (single disk on my laptop):

    * a partition for the system
    * one for Windows 8
    * one for data and
    least for Ubuntu OS

    My goal is:

    -to install VmWare on Windows 8 and run Splat Checkpoint with virtual machines to make the FCTC laboratories.

    to install GNS3 on Ubuntu for CCNP Labs but with GNS3 to access the files in the data partition

    I have a Toshiba Satellite with 750 GB and 8 GB of RAM.

    According to you, what is the best size for my scores?
    Is there a better way to partition my C drive on my goal?

    Best regards

    I don't know if this is the right section, sorry for that. Feel free to move this thread in the appropriate section *.

    I think the size of partitions depends of the you want to use and install other software.
    So if you have a lot of software which runs under the Windows System I recommend to choose a larger size to win 8 partition.

    However, given that you have a 750 GB HARD drive, you could take 200GB for Win 8, 100 GB to Linux and the rest of the HARD drive size, that you can use for data.

    By the way: I found Nice YouTube video how to create a dual boot using 8 Win and Linux http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_Yd2jK-7Jg
