Need help restoring ThinkCentr​e A70z from windows 8.1 back to factory settings windows 7

Purchased used ThinkCentre A70z from someone and it has Windows 8.1 on it but it keeps giving me message that it isn't activated so I just want to restore to factory settings which would be windows 7 which is still in place on a partition on hard drive. I have tried f11 during boot to absolutely no success. If someone could please give me instructions on how to do this I would be so happy! Also tried searching in windows 8 for system recovery and this doesn't work either. Please help!

See if you can change the brightness by installing this software.
HP Quick Launch Software
File name: sp56929.exe
If that doesn't work, I won't be able to help you with that, and you should be able to adjust the brightness in the power options menu in the control panel  using the brighjtness sliders (if the AMD graphics driver successfully installed).

  • Need help in transferring photos /videos from windows PC to iphone 4s

    Hi ,
           I have tried to transfer photos/videos from my windows7  laptop to iphone4s . It is creating two folders in the iphone4s.
    For ex:  i have a folder called  iphone_backup in my laptop.  I have selected the folder from sync photos from in itunes photos section. Hit the button sync to transfer photos from PC to iphone4s.    It did transfer my photos to the phone, but it created two folders with names  iphone_backup , photo librarary. 
    Why there is a duplication  ?

    There is no duplication.   This is how the iphone handles photos.
    Just as one book can be in the public library and that exact saem book can be in the fiction section, a photo is in the photo library ( with ALL other photos synced to the iphone) and that exact same photo can be accessed from the individual folder.
    If you wanted to show your family a slide show of all of your photos, then you would use the photo library.  if you wanted them to see only Christmas pics, then you would use the folder.
    There are not two pictures, simply two places from which to access the same pic.

  • HT4859 I need help restore my old messages and pictures to my phone.  I did a restore from my computer and my boyfriends stuff downloaded on my phone.  How do I get my stuff back?

    I need help restoring all of my pictures and infor to my phone.  My ex boyfriend info started downloading on my phone and earsed all of my info

    Mission accomplished. While waiting for your reply,. I found an article that mentioned a copy/paste of the following code from the old pref.js to the new pref.js:
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo.position", 0);
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.description", "Outlook Express Address Book");
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.dirType", 2);
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_1.filename", "impab-1.mab");
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.description", "Outlook Express Address Book");
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.dirType", 2);
    user_pref("ldap_2.servers.OutlookExpressAddressBoo_2.filename", "impab.mab");
    That identified the impab.mab file, and now all my contacts are showing.
    Here is a link to the article: http://nctritech.com/thunderbird_contact_groups.php

    I need help moving my Photoshop 7 from my old laptop to my new laptop which is running Windows 7 Enterprise. I’ve tried two routes unsuccessfully. I install the CD, it does not autoplay. I execute Autoplay.exe at the root directory, I am welcomed, I choose English, I accept the EULA, I get the Install/Explore choices window, with the Install button already selected, I click the Photoshop button, the CD spins, and nothing happens.  In the 2nd attempt I execute Setup.exe in the Photoshop directory, and nothing happens at all.  I’m never even offered the opportunity to enter my product code. What should I do?

    There could is likely a compatibility problem between the old software and the newer operating system.

  • I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

    I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

    Plug it to your computer using iPod USB Cable (any cable should work excluding iPhone 5 and Shuffle cables)...... when you see your iPod in iTunes go to that iPod and click restore...... the whole process should take (depending on what you have on your iPod and its is up to date) it should take no longer than 30 minutes...... then it will ask if you want to set up as new iPod or restore from back-up (itunes back up), since you said:
    so its like new
    click set as new iPod and follow through what they said.

  • HT1386 I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old phone to my new one

    I need help getting my contacts transferred from my old iphone to my new one

    Either backup the contacts in iCloud or with a compatible programme on your computer (Outlook, Windows Contacts, Address Book etc).
    Once done, sync the contacts to your new iPhone from that programme/iCloud.
    Read "Contacts"

  • Need help Restoring iPod to factory settings

    I have a new iPod 30G and somehow screwed things up trying to use Winamp to transfer files. I upgraded iTunes to 7 and when I start it up, it polls my iPod and I get this message:
    iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod "IPOD". Go to the Summary tab in iPod preferences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factory settings.
    The only problem is that my iPod doesn't show up on the left so I can't get to the preferences. I downloaded the iPod updater 6.28.06 but it won't work with iTunes 7, it says that iTunes 7 will do the updating. Uninstalled 7, went back to 6 and now the updater says it has an iPod service error. Have rebooted my PC. Have reset my iPod, have slept very little
    Any help getting my iPod back to factory settings would be appreciated. BTW, my PC does recognize the iPod and I can browse the I: drive so I know it "should" work.
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm having the same exact issue with the nano i just bought. I was able to transfer a few files using itunes and then i tried to open up a folder with mp3s (outside of itunes) and mass upload one album. after i tried that it started giving me the same error message. i've tried finding the reset and itunes reads the ipod but it doesn't show up as selectable on the source pane. grr its soo frustrating.

    Sorry, but that one doesn't sound like something for "users helping other users" -- unless someone smarter comes along here ... :-) ... I would advise going to Apple Support to have it taken care of ... or to your local Apple Store, over to the Genius Bar.
