  • Help Please -Factory Reset Failed on HP Envy

    Recently my laptop touch screen suffered from extreme "ghost touches" that made the laptop basically unusable until I disabled the human interface and only used the mouse. I went to a popular computer site that walked me through numerous detailed scans and determined it was not a malware/virus issue.  So, I tried a system restore and that didn't help. Next step was a factory image reset using the recovery disks that I made upon purchase. After 3 tries the reset continues to fail. It always looks promising and gets to the "Administrator welcome" screen but then goes back to "software installation" eventually ends up at the "Restoration Incomplete" screen. When I try to save the log detail to a DVD it says there's not enough free space even though it's a blank 4.7GB disk. I took a pic of the log (attached) if that helps. On a side note during the "Software installation' process the frame blinked randomly and what appeared to be drop down menus opened randomly for split seconds in the background... none of which appeared kosher to me  - but I'm no tech expert. I do have an extended warranty and may end up having to send it in but would prefer to fix here if possible. I love this laptop and am at a total loss here - thanks for any help/advice!

  • No memory left, help me factory reset my mac air

    So checked my memory today and it says i have ~500MB free. unfortunately 100Gigs of it is being used by other and i don't understand what it is. Im ASSUMING my games (World of warcraft and League of Legends) is a fair chunk of that because none of the other categories exceed 30gigs which is (roughly) the size of WoW.
    I purchased a 1TB external not too long ago and was originally just going to keep big files on it when I'm not using them. However seeing as i only have 500MB left I would like to just put everything on my external, factory restore my mac, then just go through what i NEED/WANT on my mac and just bring it over. I would just like a little bit of help through this process as I'm not 100% sure of anything i might be overlooking. this should work right?
    Also I've never used time machine but when i plugged in my external it asked if i wanted to use time machine for it and i clicked yes because I'm assuming this is basically what I'm trying to do, back up everything on my external, but then again i have no knowledge of time machine so I'm not entirely sure if this is what i want. Is it going to just put everything on my external, then when i restore it will it just bring back everything from the external and put it on my macs internal drive? because... thats the complete opposite of what I'm trying to do.
    Anyways, I could really use some help. Big thanks in advance

    I think you may be confusing memory (RAM) with storage space.
    To see how much RAM is installed, click the Apple  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click:  About This Mac
    For storage space. Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
    Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

  • Help With Factory Reset

    I ran over my Blackberry Tour, rendering the screen unusable.
    I can access the device from Desktop Manager, and I can run exe.Autoloader/factoryreset from the Windows command prompt.
    However, this does not remove the Verizon phone number from the device. Verizon won't work with the phone because the screen is cracked.
    What's the correct way to wipe the Verizon data from the command prompt?

    Are you going to get a new device from Verizon? Once you get another device you can just dial *228, then choose option 1 to program the phone. that will move your # to the new device. Until then you can ask Verizon to suspend your number

  • Involuntary iPhone 4S factory reset

    When I was feeding the cats while listening to music on spotify, having my phone in my pocket, my iPhone 4S automatically rebooted to perform a factory reset. Can anybody explain to me how this is possible? The phone was locked and had a password lock, and no setting to  wipe the phone after 10 failed login attempts.

  • Keyboard (hardware & onscreen) suddenly don't work anymore - only factory reset helps

    I have my Passport for about a month now and just experienced the following problem for the second time: all of sudden the keyboard (both hardware and onscreen) don't work anymore. I cannot enter my device password anymore, I can focus the password dialog, but then simply nothing happens when I press keys.
    After a restart of the Passport it asks me for my SIM card PIN. Again, I can focus the text field in the dialog, and I can touch numbers of the onscreen keyboard, and the number keys light up, but no input gets to the dialog.
    There is simply no way to activate the device anymore. I can do a backup using BlackBerry Link, and I can access the device with BlackBerry Blend - but the device itself is useless. No kind of restart or reset helps. The only solution is to do a factory reset, after that the device works fine again - for some time.
    Once this happened while I was on the road, without doing anything with the device. The second time it happened when I was trying to deploy a self written app using the Momentics IDE.
    Additional information:
    - development mode is on (needed since I want to develop Apps for BB10)
    - Snap is installed
    - a handful of Android apps from Google Play store are installed
    - two BlackBerry World apps are installed (whatsapp and HUB++LED)
    Did anyone experienced similar issues or has an idea what might cause this problem?
    Thanks!

    Have you tried using a usb keyboard/mouse?
    I don't use any usb, only use PS2. Maybe it is possible to use some sort of a PS2 to usb converter, but I would rather like the PS2 to work.

  • Even after complete factory reset in a last ditch effort, my macbook is still awful. Why? Please help.

    Aright, I'm really hoping I can get some help here. This macbook is the most expensive thing that I own.
    So, I start up my macbook pro 13inch running macvericks a few days go and for some reason the fans are going full last and it's terribly sluggish. I dug around a bit and realized spotlight was indexing. I let it finish, then restarted my computer later that day. Then, as soon as it started back up this time the fans were going full speed again. I take care of my macbook, and I've never let it get close to overheating, then only thing that I do on it is browse the web, write, and record music using garageband. I was worried, so I looked at activity monitor and kernel_task was running full speed. I looked forever on the internet for a solution and found some useful tips about editing plists that solved my cpu problem. However, my fans still went full speed after I gave them some time to transtion, with a reset and all. So, at this point and I'm frustrated with merely the noise, I look around for fan control software and none of it stifled the raging monstrosity that has become my fan. My logic at this point? Back up everything and do a full wipe of the hard drive and reinstall mavericks. So I did. Here I am with a blank macbook pro that is now just as slow as it was and the fans are still going full speed. I can't believe I spent a years worth of saving to just have it suddenly combust on me like this. I hate to whine, but please help me. Now, the activity monitor shows levels of up to 80% cpu usage and no explanation on top of that. It's still incredibly loud and not hot at all. It's difficult to type this to you guys because my computer doesn't want to catch up. I read some stuff about involuntary indexing, I'll let the macbook run for a while today and see if anything starts to change. You're my lost hope guys. I called apple support but they wanted 19 dollars just to see if they could fix it or not, I didn't have the money to pay them now and I won't until school starts in a week, wherein I will deseprately need a fully functional macbook, the one that I paid for in August 2012 with literally all my savings.
    *also, before I factory reset the macbook I did an smc and pram reset, I also took out the batter from inside the machine for 30 seconds.

    Hi,
    I am having the exact same problem with my macbook pro, I was just wondering if you ever got a solution for your problem? Its been persisting for 3 days and i literally just wiped the system and am in the middle of reinstalling mavericks as we speak (i too resorted to a desktop) It was only after that i saw this thread, and now i regret wiping the system knowing it probably wont work.. but however, fresh start and all that jazz. My warranty ended just last week so im pretty disappointed with the timing, and i cant afford to keep up the warranty another year. If you could give me a solution or some guidance that would be great!
    Thanks!

  • Help Factory Resetting!!

    Hello, Recently i have tried to factory reset my Compaq Pressario PC SR5710Y. Every time it gets to 48% a message appears saying "error 1005. If the error persist contact HP Support" and im wondering what can i do about this problem.

    Hello jack867!: since you can't get your machine's recovery past 48%
    hopefully you either have Master Recovery media ordered from HP
    2. Made Recovery Media from Recovery Manager included in the computer
    try again by detaching all your hardware that's attached except your rodent & keyboard & follow what you see on your screen
    because it's likely that the partition is damaged
    in c.40 minutes you should have a normal desktop
    immediately run scandisk  to see if there's no latent HD issues lurking
    3.  if you own a full fledged retail copy of Windows in addition to doing the aformentioned
    go to the Web page pertaining to the model model & download all the drivers that are part of your computer following what ever you see on the web bage
    good luck
    hope this helps
