  • Cannot Restore Windows 7

    A relative came to me, asking for help. The notebook is a HP Pavillon dm4-2040ez.
    I found out that HP warranty was just over and the harddisk was broken. So we ordered a new SSD and I installed a clean version of Windows 7 from my DVD, but did not activate it (30 days time to do so). I recommended to either buy Windows 8 or order the recovery DVDs. Windows worked fine so far. Owner decided to order the recovery disks.
    After they arrived, I noticed that the optical drive was broken too. But the owner doesn't really need it, so I copied the first recovery DVD to an USB stick (on my PC) and made it bootable and then booted the HP machine from the USB stick. That worked fine but after booting I just get the progress bar ("Windows is loading files" or something like that) then some scripts start. Then the machine boots again - and everything repeats.
    So I cannot restore Windows that way. What's the problem? Obviously not the hardware, as it worked with my installation before. Do the recovery DVDs require to start them from an optical drive or what? Or was the disk maybe broken somehow? Any other ideas?
    This question was solved.

    Hi:
    The OEM key works on the retail Vista and W7 downloads, not like XP where you need the OEM disk to match the OEM key.
    Follow the steps below and you will be all set.
    Use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link  below. You need a DVD or a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
    Use the 25 character windows 7 product key to activate your installation.
    http://download.cnet.com/Windows-7-USB-DVD-Downloa​d-Tool/3000-18513_4-10972600.html
    Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
    Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below. Download the applicable version of Windows 7 that is on your product key (Home Premium, Pro, or Ultimate).

    You can't make a bootable usb flash drive from one disk.
    What will you do when the system asks you to insert another disk?
    The recovery disks are image files and they are looking for the same size hard drive to install on.

  • I've downloaded Firefox 4, now cannot access Windows Live Mail and have spent many hours trying to resolve including uninstalling, system restore etc etc

    I have a Sony Vaio Desktop (ie high spec) and have not had any software problems until I downloaded FF 4 and lost my WLM. I've tried so many ways to try to resolve this. The Sytem Restore is not working - ebven though I created a restore point for 4 May and disabled all the security settings etc.
    I can access my WLM account on my work PC - but note that the address list has gone.
    Really grateful for your help - thanks.

    Update:  I tried the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" after everything else either fizzled out or hung up. After going all the way thru the recovery process (up to 100%), I finally got an error message.....it didn't work. And now, when I fire up the computer, I don't even get to that menu with the recovery options....the only thing I can boot into is the screens with the various ways to run your OS (in "safe mode", "safe mode with networking", etc).
    I'm not a techie, but I'm guessing at this point, the part of my hard drive that got damaged in the fall was, at the very least, the partition with the recovery data. Couple that with the fact that this cheapo Toshiba laptop didn't even come with recovery disk (or ANY kind of disk, even basic installation software!), I'm screwed: I don't see any way to get a workable computer now without some kind of disk to boot from. So NOW my concern is more about spending the $$ for a new OS and THEN finding out the hard drive has other problems too...is broken in some other way to boot.
    How to check this? As I said, I did run "chkdsk" back when I could get into the recovery menu and run the fix-it programs. It didn't note any problems. Thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista (which I never liked), but I have to know that the computer is otherwise ok....how to be sure? Help!!

  • Cannot restore Windows after using Rescue & Recovery

    I used R&R once and after doing so, I reboot and come up with error message saying "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
       \WINDOWS\system32\c_1252,nls
    You can attempt to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD-ROM. Select 'r' at the first screen to start repair."
    Of course there is no original Setup CD-ROM with this computer.  I tried a Windows XP Professional CD from Microsoft and it cannot see any hard drive on my computer, so it will not work.
      Is there a way to start over and re-install Windows??

    hey Bernie
    missing drivers.. not th end of the world. dont give up on Lenovo yet. i installed xp yesterday and found the drivers the ibm-lenovo support site. fill in you laptop specs.. i.e. model, OS, etc. and you should get a list of your drivers.. 
    After i had th files i thought they didnt work but wat they do is extract you drivers to your local disk. 
    Thers another site, sorry forgot to bookmark it but this one was sufficient in my case. Hope lenovos not in the trash yet

  • I cannot send an email with attachment from elements 11 via windows live mail 2012 on my windows 8.1 pc.  Can anyone help?

    I am using elements 11, windows live mail 2012 on a windows 8.1 PC.  When trying to attach an elements 11 image to an email via the sharing option in Organizer, I get a message that the email message cannot be completed, and to try Adobe mail.  I have set preferences to windows live mail, but no success.

    Hi,
    With Windows 8, the new message sometimes hides in the taskbar
    When you see the spinning circle, look at the taskbar to see if the Windows Live Mail has grown another task. Hover over the icon on the taskbar to shown the two images, right click on the right hand image and then select maximize. That should show the message ready for sending.
    Good luck.

  • Help: Windows cannot restore a system image to a computer with different firmware

    I want to recover a complete image of a Windows 7 operating system I have backed up to my other server. But I am getting the error "Windows cannot restore a system image to a computer with different firmware. The System Image was created by a computer using BIOS and this computer is using EFI"
    The image was definitely taken from this machine - the firmware has not changed!
    What do I need to do to restore the image?
    Background Story ..
    I bought a new HP 255 laptop per-installed with Windows 7 without Operating Systems instal disks (I will NEVER be stupid enough to do that again!).
    I took a complete image of the systems, as suggested so that I was well backed up.
    However, my machine corrupted its operating systems with a few weeks. The boot recovery CD did not work (would not boot). So in desperation, and because time was short I went out and bought another, legitimate copy of Windows 7 DVD with a license key (So now I have 2, legitimate copies of the operating system!).
    I installed the new copy of Windows 7 - but it was dreadful, because many drivers were missing. Mostly the missing drivers were not available on the HP support site for this machine. ALso, boot up was increadibly slow compared to the original OS installation.
    So I created a new boot recovery disk from the new version of Windows, and tried to restore using that. New boot disk loads ok, I can find the old image on my network (after loading a few network drivers). But I won't instal the image - giving the above error message.
    I tried deleting the EFI partition from the disk (using GPARTED to reformat that partition). That killed the Windows 7 on the machine - but still gives the same error message when I try to re-image the machine.
    I have tried going into the BIOS settings .. HP 255 has a "Legacy Mode" - which I have enabled, but this makes no difference at all!
    I think that the kind of solutions I am looking for might be:
    1. There is a clever way of disabling EFI on my 255 so that it looks like a legacy BIOS machine, or
    2. This EFI this is wired into my new boot recovery disk - and there is a way of creating a boot recovery disk that does not use EFI
    This has taken me about 2 weeks so far,please help with any suggestions!

    Erico,
    I suspect that "MSDOS" is what the Gparted tool calls "MBR" for a partition table, as explained here:
    http://superuser.com/questions/700770/mbr-equals-msdos-for-gparted
    I think that you are suggesting I give up on trying to recover the image I have stored on my server and just to instal Windows 7 from my new copy. There are two problems with this.
    1. After having systematically downloaded all of the drivers from the HP 255 notebook support page, I am still seeing missing drivers listed. Install the AMD graphics softpaq driver first. It also contains the chipset drivers.
    2. The machine is taking a hugely long time to boot up, and seems much slower with this version. Maybe that is a product of using "EFI" rather than "bios" - I don't know.
    My assumption is that HP had some special set-up option with their version of Windows which makes the machine more performant. It does not seem to be a coincidence that the image they deliver the machine with is not quite compatible with a 'normal' Windows 7 instal.
    So my original question stands: How do I recover the image that I saved away (as per instructed) when I first bough the machine?
    You still have not said what you used to create the system image. What is the "image" file's extension?
    You are mistaken in your comparison. MSDOS is an operating sytem MBR is a partitioning scheme.  that is comparing apples to oranges. 
    The article is making an oblique reference in that using GPARTED is more or less equated to using the diskpart utility at the command line. Everything done at the comand line is essentially  done by use of MSDOS commands. GPARTED does the same thing with LINUX commands via a graphical interface so you don't have to type in the commands in a  Linux console.
    Do you mean making a backup? a backup is not a clone which can be reproduced on different hardware. The SSD disk replacement does make the hardware differ from the original configuration.

  • Windows Live Mail doesn't work in Firefox after recent updates to Windows 7. System Restore doesn't help.

    Installed around 8 important Windows 7 updates over the past 3 days (so, nothing I could uninstall as they're security updates mainly). Since then, Windows Live Mail doesn't respond in Firefox. Did 2 System Restores and downloaded Live Essentials again but nothing works.

  • I cannot e-mail microsoft word attachments with Windows Live mail

    I receive error message - Logon failed, you must logon to Microsoft Exchange to access address book. Error Code: Unspecified error.  Another message pops up:  There is no e-mail program associated to perform the requested action.  Please install
    an e-mail program or if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Program Control Panel.
     My Windows Live mail is working - I receive messages and can send them but I cannot send Microsoft Office Word 2007 attachments which I could before.  Yahoo mail sent a message to use Firefox instead of Internet Explorer and I tried it and then
    uninstalled it and something apparently got messed up.

    I recommend you post in a Windows Live Mail forum.  This forum is for Microsoft Exchange Server 2013.

  • Cannot get out of full-screen view of main window of Mail.

    I went into full-screen with the main window of Mail, and now cannot get out of it, even when quitting and relaunching. Exiting full screen only shows separate window for the highlighted email. How can I reverse this?

    Push your mouse cursor to the top until the menu drops down.  At the far right corner is the leave full screen icon.  Select it.

  • Cannot find 'HTTP... from Windows Live Mail

    Using both FireFox 8.0, then 9.0 as my default browser, I get the error "Windows cannot find 'http:...." when I click on a link in an email in Windows Live Mail. The error note remains, but after a few seconds, FireFox opens the desired link page.
    This doesn't happen when I set IE7 as the default browser. It simply works without the error note.

    What password do you use to log onto MyBT. The old one or the new one?

    If it is your old password there appears to be a glitch when changing email passwords, it is not changing the password in MyBT so it causes a problem when logging on via an email client.
    If you change the password of MyBT it does change the email password as well.
    (I may have gotten this the wrong way round because I haven't tried it. ie changing MyBT does not change email password and changing email password does change MyBT password.)
