HP Tools Drive (E:)

My computer consistently says my E drive is full and I've gone through the many forums about the issue, but my question is, it also says that you can format that drive and it will erase all the content of that drive.
WHAT WILL THIS DO AND EFFECT IF I FORMAT IT AND IT ERASES EVERYTHING??????

How do i get rid of low disk space message popup HP tools drive E on pavilion g7-1219wm notebook pc

How do i get rid of low disk space message ( you are running out of disk space on Hp_Tools (E popup HP tools drive E on pavilion g7-1219wm notebook pc. It is very annoying. I am i school and I have noticed it since downloading different assignments from my college black boards.

Thanks Banhien for your quick response. However my system shows no backup schedule to disable. I do have a 'Manage Space" link and a Turn on schedule link and change settings link along with Restore options with 3 options-' restore all user files- select another backup to restore files from and recover system settings on your computer. If I click on 'Manage Space link', it gives me the option to 'Select how disk space is used by Windows back up'- then there are two options: 'data file backup'-which indicates i can free up space by deleting file backups, and the other option is 'system image' which is greyed out. Upon clicking on the option (view backups) under 'data file backup option'- it shows the current data file backups on my hp_tools (e the date of the file is displayed and the amount of usage- it gives me the option to delete- should I click the delete button?

Hi,
Please try:
Click Start, type "Backup and Restore," and press Enter. This brings up Windows Backup which is a little different than system protection.
In the middle of the Window you should see that the backup is on a schedule. Disable this.
Save your changes.
Delete the backup folder on the E:
Reboot notebook and verify that this resolves the issue.

HP Tools Drive E: Pop-up

I've checked most of the threads and I can't use their solutions.
I'm not familiar with how hard drives and restore points work so I'm afraid to alter any of the files in the drive.
I can't change the system protection in E:, too.
Any help would be much appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hi,
It should be Ok now but just keep a watch on it over the next week or so to make sure no further unwanted files are being stored here. MediaID.bin is a back-up file and can safely be removed.

Tool/driver to emulate mouse events?

Hello,
is there a software for my mouse to use an emulated middle mouse button when you click both the left and right button (for example)?

It's called "xdotool" and you find it in the AUR.

My hp pavilion dv6 laptop hp_ tools e drive is full?

hey i was wondering why my hp_tools e drive is full, i got this laptop not too long ago in march so it's still fairly new but i keep getting notifications about that drive being full but all it says that i can delete is my already empty recyling bin. all the files on that drive are
Hewlett- Packard (file folder)
User HP- (file folder)
Jordan- (file folder)
HP_WSD.dat- (dat file)
HPSF_Rep- (text document)
MediaID.bin- (Bin file)
i would try something on my own but i'm too afraid that i'll really mess something up on it, oh and i noticed that it takes a REALLY long time to load videos on basically every website but web browsing it self is fine except for youtube so if some one could suggest how to fix that, that would be awesome. hope this post is specific enough.

The HP tools drive is for testing your system. Take not of the size, it is a very small part of your total hard drive and is not meant for anything else. I imagine Norton or some other anti-virus program is monitoring your system and reporting it. Next time it comes up , see if you can just check not to notify you again about that.

HP-Tools on Windows 7 Home Premium

I just bought a ProDesk 400 G1 running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I noticed that it had 4 "Primary" paritions pre-configured including the "E" drive as HP-Tools.
I need to install UniVerse 11.n on drive "E" to avoid a great deal of configuration issues, so I wanted to re-name the HP-tools drive to "H" at a minimum. I also would like to re-partition the drive, creating an extended partition and logicals under it. Will the HP-tools work if set as a logical partition?

Problems with selection tools

I am having trouble in CS6 with selecting a portion of my photo, with any of the tools- quick-selection, lasso or magnetic lasso. What happens is that once I have completed my selection, I get strange rectangles of 'marching ants' throughout my selection. These show up as different colours on the layer mask as well. When I first used quick selection it worked properly.
Is the tool somehow corrupted?

Thanks Trevor. It was both. After considering the issue, and using the tool in Elements on my laptop, I decided somehow the tool driver file had been corrupted, and did another install, which thankfully fixed the problem. I'm new to CS6 and was very surprised to have this kind of thing happen. I did a separate backup of my uncorrupted CS6 program files, and plan to do another backup this morning, just to be safe.
Fortunately, it's all good.

DO NOT install this driver for Sound Blaster Audigy SE, or Sound Blaster Audigy Va

I have two creative products that work fine under xp. But since installing vista my sBli've platinum doesn't work at all, i find out that creative are no longer supporting this card for vista. Fair enough... So I'm waiting for the SB audigy driver update and behold I read that i shouln't install the driver for my other Sound Blaster card, Audigy SE.
what are creative trying to do? does'nt look like a well run company.
And from what I've read what is the point of getting a card that is suppoted by the new driver as other people seem to be complaining that this new driver doesn't enable all the features as under Xp.

If I am right your Audigy is the first Audigy (EMU0k2) soundcard that was launched by Creative Labs. You need the drivers for the audigy series. For driver/application updates: Latest downloads Audigy Platinum
For a proper install, you may use the tools Driver Cleaner or Driver Sweeper in Windows Safe Mode to clean up the older drivers that are left in the system which can cause the problems you are having now; you can find these tools at Guru3D (under 'General Utilities').
After that You can install the drivers including the software/applications by using the install cd which is supplied with your Audigy soundcard, and then install the driver updates manually afterwards.
Or you can try out the new Daniel_K's driverpack (software/applications included, install cd not needed): SB Audigy Support Pack 2.8.000EQ (08/22/2008)
Good luck!

HP recovery/tools partition gone, but files are archived on C:\, how do I retrieve them?

I deleted the hp tools drive but I made a copy of all the files on the drive on C:\. My computer is in deserate need of a factory state OS. Is there any way to get all these files back onto another partition?

When requesting assistance, please provide the complete model name and product number (p/n) of the HP computer in question. HP/Compaq makes thousands of models of computers. Without this information it may be difficult or impossible to assist you in resolving your issue.
The above requested information can be found on the bottom of your computer, inside the battery compartment or on the startup BIOS screen. Please see How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? for more assistance locating this information. DO NOT include your serial number. Please enter the model/product information into HP's Online Consumer Support page and post it here for our review.
While you may have made an archive of the HP Recovery patition, it is unlikely that it will be useful or functional even after restoring it to a partition. It is likely that pointer and links required by the HP Recovery Manager and "F11" key are no longer correct. If you didn't create your HP Recovery Media when you first setup your computer, you will need to order / purchase this Media to return your computer to a factory like state.
If in the USA, please contact or visit HP's support page for your model to see if HP Recovery Media is available for your model. If elsewhere in the world, please contact official HP Customer Support, via the HP Worldwide Support Portal, to see if HP recovery Media is available for your model.

Satellite M60-176: Cannot install the graphic driver

Greetings,
i'm trying to reinstall the original Toshiba driver from the site
on a satellite M60-176 with mobility ATI X700 256 MB dedicated
version is :
<name>VGA Driver (ATI M24C/M26P)</name>
<version>V8.121.050322a-021880C</version>
<comment>VGA Driver (ATI M24C/M26P)</comment>
The error message occurs when i install the software package : Setup copy dll, install some component and stop at driver installation slide with message ( translation from french ) "setup was not able to finish installation, try to configure your display adapter with standard vga one before executing setup
When i try to detect the card with control pannel and chose the CX_21880.inf file in 2KXP_INF, the process copy the dll, but at end complains that "a problem occurs in installation of Radeon X700" and then error is "ACCES DENIED"
I've tried to follow sequence as :
uninstall all, go to safe mode, delete video card ( i can't set a proper VGA other card )
I'v tried a driver removal tool ( Driver Cleaner pro ) then restart XP then try to reinstall ATI original toshiba driver : same problem
TOSHIBA support told me to upgrade to bios 1.60 : same problem
I can't conclude that original toshiba video driver can't be installed on a toshiba....
Actually i'm running display with standard vga at 1152x864 32 bit color with slow rendering
I'm really asking for help, because i don't know how to do...
Regards,
Ludovic

Hello Jaba,
of course the reinstallation should fix the problem,but the binary image will erase all my data or configuration "customized"
I think that there was a mismatch in installation procedure or transaction...
Now i've finally fixed it.
Here it is how :
I've turned off the windows logger as i've seen that registry keys were locked because wrong privileges
I've reassigned the privilieges to current user ( ludovic )
After , i've suppressed all driver with standard uninstall
Then i've supressed all dll
Tnen i've searched for ATI key in Current control set * , services , HKEY local machine software
Then i've procedeed reinstallation => it works
So Now i've the driver installed
If you have the same problem, i suggest user to consult following articles :

Hope it will help.
