Solve : Nothing but desk top? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I did what you said on the computer that I am using now, and it immediately ask for the disk. On the other one that is messed up it went all the way through and just disappeared... When you first turn your computer on (before windows starts) you will see a message that says to press a certain key to enter setup. it's usually an F key or esc or del. Pay attention, as this message may flash very quickly. Repeatedly tap that key to enter setup before windows starts to load. This will take you into your BIOS setup.<br/><br/>In BIOS you want to look for boot order or boot sequence or boot priority. You want to set your CD drive as the first boot device. You <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/need-25476" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NEED">NEED</a> to move it up to the top of the boot order. <br/><br/>Once you have your CD drive set as the first boot device, insert your XP CD into the drive. Now exit BIOS and SAVE CHANGES (F10).<br/><br/>Your computer will restart. When it restarts you may see a message that says "press any key to boot to CD". I've never been able to find the "any" key so I just usually tap the space bar - it seems to work okay. Once you've done that, you should hear the CD start spinning in the drive and see a blue screen with "windows setup" at the top. It will load a bunch of files and then you will see a screen that says Welcome to setup.<br/><br/>At that screen press R to enter the recovery console. The Recovery Console will start and ask you which Windows <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/installation-16361" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTALLATION">INSTALLATION</a> you would like to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/log-237006" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOG">LOG</a> on to. If you only have one installation, press 1 and then press enter. Then you'll be asked for the password. If you have no password on that computer just leave it blank and press enter.<br/><br/>You should now see a C:\Windows> prompt.<br/><br/>At that prompt type expand E:\I386\explorer.ex_ %systemroot%\explorer.exe and press enter. This command assumes that your CD drive's letter is E. If your CD drive has a different letter substitute that letter into the command after the word expand.Well I tried something and it worked I hit f10 and it took it back to factory but it left my data intact. I worked on it till 5 in the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/morning-1103190" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MORNING">MORNING</a> but finely got it back. I want to thank you all for your help and time..........two-dogsAfter the computer fully loads on the desk top right click.<br/><br/>Goto Arrange Icons By then select Show Desktop Icons.<br/><br/>[recovering disk space - old <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/attachment-385146" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ATTACHMENT">ATTACHMENT</a> deleted by admin]Rusty thanks for your time but it has been fixed as per my last post. I tried what you said but I had nothing even when I right clicked I didn't even have a start menu........all good now.......two-dogs</p></body></html> | |

Solve : Restore XP from overwritten OS on Dell? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Problem: Dell XPS: XP Home operating system was overwritten by owner with new XP Home install (no, I don't know why they went this way). Now the computer boots to the screen where you select the OS, it lists three: The new XP Home install with no programs recognized, the old XP system, and the restore system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/partition-238933" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PARTITION">PARTITION</a>. The only one that's bootable is the new install with no programs/drivers. All the data/users/files are visible, but programs aren't valid. Also, I cannot restore the machine using the Dell restore utility as the option is no longer available under the new OS install. <br/>Question: Is the old XP install still recoverable? Any ideas on how to recover the old installation? is it a matter of fixing the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/mbr-547044" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MBR">MBR</a>, Bootcfg, or other INI file?<br/>Or is it toast and ready for a wipe and full reinstall? <br/><br/>System: Dell XPS Core 2 Duo Desktop<br/>P965 Chipset, 1 GB Ram, Nvidia 7300 LE PCI-E, 250 GB SATA, <br/>XP Home SP2<br/>My best recommendation. Get another hard drive of the same size and type. Clone the original. Do your <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/experiments-249771" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXPERIMENTS">EXPERIMENTS</a> on the clone copy. If things fail, you still have the original.<br/><br/>Do that first. Then somebody here will tell you want is the next step.Boot to the bootable OS and take ownership of the folders and files in the the old installation (<a href="https://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421">http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308421</a>). Copy them to off disc media then format and start from scratch.Great tips; thanks for the quick response. I have privileges on the original folders/files, so that's not a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/big-896707" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BIG">BIG</a> issue. What I'm really after is access to the restore partition if I can't point the Bootcfg.ini file to the original os install. I'm not sure what XP backs up under a new install over an existing operating system. If it's just a new set of config files then one should be able to undo the damage (theoretically). Failing that, access to the restore partition would save a whole lot of time/effort as I have the Dell OS Install disk, but not the other driver/program/restore disks as they dump all that on the restore partition. Which is, unfortunately, not accessible. <br/>Thanks again for the assist. When you first run on the computer, CNTL-F11 will give you access to the Dell Recovery Partition.<br/><a href="https://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/document?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&docid=DC47E7957E35BBC0E030A68F27280D16#Issue3">http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/document?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&docid=DC47E7957E35BBC0E030A68F27280D16#Issue3</a>Do not use the recovery partition until you recover the files you want to save per my post above.Thanks again for the replies. the Control + F11 does not work as the new OS install overrode access to the original Dell OS installation and recovery partition. The only viable OS on the machine right now is the new, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/generic-468117" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GENERIC">GENERIC</a> XP install without programs or drivers. I've backed up the files (Great suggestion on the cloning! Thanks for that!), so I'm no longer worried about this install if things go awry. <br/>Any clues on re-recognizing the overwritten OS?<br/>Thanks again.<a href="http://www.goodells.net/dellrestore/fixes.htm">Troubleshooting the Restore Process</a>Thanks for the great site. I attempted the fix using the bootable CD option, but after two coasters I determined the ISO file must be corrupted. Managed to boot from a USB drive and the DSRFIX program did find and fix the faults in the MBR. Unfortunately, nothing has changed with the hard drive boot sequence or available partitions. I'm going to find a floppy and download a DSRFIX dumpfile to the author and see what he makes of it. <br/>Curious as to what could have gone wrong since many people rave about the program and reading the testimonials there are people who have fixed exactly the problem I'm having. <br/>Thanks again for the great link.<br/>Just an update; looking at the partitions using Partition Wizard and finding all the files intact, just not reachable using Cntrl + F11.<br/></p></body></html> | |

However the forth year it started to slow down and the performance dropped dramatically. For nearly three years I have not played a single game on the computer and rarely browsed the internet on it since it is near impossible. The computer is very slow and it would take anywhere from two to five minutes to open a small file or bring up the web browser. <br/><br/>Earlier today, the computer would load a little bit on the loading screen that first <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/appears-881937" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about APPEARS">APPEARS</a> and then freezes.<br/><br/>My grandpa was at first saying the hard drive went out and now he is saying it is the BIOS. I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out what truly is the problem and if at all possible it could be fixed. <br/><br/>A Dell XPS laptop or desktop? First of all, you cannot boot and it freezes. Most probably a hardware problem. Re-inserting and cleaning the slot for RAM(memory). Since it may be old, When was it last blown out from dirt or dust? Make sure also that the battery(CMOS,3V)still has that usable power to boot your CPU. After all, an 8 year computer would be worth the maintenance check-up. When it boots to desktop normally, post for another topic here when it comes to computer lags issue.Sorry for not including a whole lot of information. It is a desktop and as far as I know has never been dusted out. <br/><br/>Anyways, he did finally get it to start up correctly and he's now listening to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/music-1379" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MUSIC">MUSIC</a> on it. It's still performing as slow as it has for years. Quote</p><blockquote>The computer is very slow and it would take anywhere from two to five minutes to open a small file or bring up the web browser. </blockquote> <br/>Try first cleaning your Temporary internet files folder. Go to Documents and Settings folder, Administrator , Local settings, then open Temporary internet files. once inside the folder, you will have to delete by pressing ctrl+A(to select all/highlight) then right-click mouse and click on delete. Exit. Always also to make sure to REFRESH desktop and windows explorer windows. Just right-click and press REFRESH. In your case most probably refreshing it 10 to 20 times on desktop per session. However the most likely optimal way of making everything work is to make a CLEANING maintenance on your CPU and reformatting your hard drive. Just make sure to back-up all your important files and that you have your CD installers with you.BIOS<br/>Do you hear any beeps when the system is booting? If so what are they?

Solve : Alt Key seems to be permanently active? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>The Alt key on my laptop (MPC T2200) seems to be permanently active. Does anyone know how this could happen and, more importantly, how do I undo it?<br/><br/>Last week, while typing in Internet Explorer 7, I hit some keys in the lower left of the keyboard. Since then, I can no longer type any words. When I press the letter F, the File menu opens; when I press the letter T, the Tools menu opens; and so on. This is the same as if I had pressed Alt+F or Alt+T in a normal situation. Similarly, when I double-click an icon on the desktop, the Properties dialog box opens; this is the same as Alt+Enter. <br/><br/>The only way I can open any applications is by right-clicking the icon and then clicking Open. <br/><br/>I've taken the keyboard apart and checked the keys. They do not seem to be physically stuck.<br/><br/>I can go into MS-DOS and type letters. They appear correctly. I think this means it is not a keyboard problem. However, when I press Enter, the DOS window goes to full screen; when I press Enter again, it goes back to the regular DOS screen. <br/><br/>I tried to get to the BIOS, but the F2 key does not function during start-up. It seems like it's being ignored. <br/><br/>I have a Windows Log-on Password on this laptop and, until two days ago, I was not able to log on to the computer because of this issue with the Alt key. The computer is not recognizing any letters I press unless they happen to be part of a key combination with the Alt key. Now, I'm afraid to shut it down in case I can't start it back up again. <br/><br/>I have plugged a PS2 keyboard into the laptop, but it does not even recognize it.<br/><br/>Any help, thoughts, suggestions, anything will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.<br/><br/>Chuck<br/>The Alt key may not be physically stuck but something may have happened to the "switch" it is linked to. That is the simple way of describing it. You might need a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/new-1114486" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NEW">NEW</a> keyboard.<br/><br/>Press the SHIFT key five times quickly to make sure "sticky keys" is not enabledQuote from: Allan on July 06, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2010-290294" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2010">2010</a>, 04:00:33 PM</p><blockquote>Press the SHIFT key five times quickly to make sure "sticky keys" is not enabled<br/></blockquote><br/>I was going to say something along these lines (actually, I was going to say to try pushing Alt again, since the Key up event might not have registered, however, I assume that within the last few weeks they have <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/rebooted-7301566" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REBOOTED">REBOOTED</a> their PC at least once, and they would have to press alt a single time right when they start their PC in order to observe the behaviour they mentioned. Of course checking for stickykeys is free and costs nothing and if it saves the money for a new keyboard all the better, for but I have to say I'm with ST on this one- it sounds more like a hardware problem.<br/><br/>of course, given that it's a laptop, I have a few other suggestions, especially since laptop keyboards are far less of a trivial replacement then a desktop keyboard.<br/><br/>On all of my laptops, I've occasionally had keys that stick and cause the symptoms mentioned. in many cases the issue is visibly obvious; other times, the key is up, but the switch has somehow got lodged in the down position.<br/><br/>In all cases, I've managed to "unstick" the key by pressing down on the key until it made a rather disconcerting <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/snap-838" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SNAP">SNAP</a> sound, at which point the key resumed operating normally.Thanks for the suggestions and feedback. I've tried all the suggestions and still no <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/luck-1081575" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LUCK">LUCK</a> with it. I'm beginning to think that it is a keyboard problem, rather than a Windows issue. Maybe I'll post something in the Hardware forum and see if anyone there has any other suggestions. <br/><br/>I checked the Sticky Keys settings again and that does not seem to be the problem.<br/><br/>This morning, it seems that none of the keys are responding, even in DOS. It's probably time for me to give up on this laptop, since it is pretty old. <br/>Check the on-screen keyboard (I think it is in accessability options in XP). You should be able to disable the alt key there, however this will only provide a temporary solution, as I believe it will revert back at reboot. You can also try holding the alt key down together with the number lock key for a few seconds as this is supposed to remove any key-locks.<br/><br/>I have had this issue (with the same key in-fact) in the past and ended up replacing the keyboard, as it was the only permanent solution I could find.<br/><br/>Good LuckThanks for the suggestions. <br/><br/>I can get into the On-screen Keyboard, but I get the same response as with the keyboard. That is, F opens the File menu, and so on. I don't know how you mean I can disable the Alt key using the on-screen keyboard. <br/><br/>I tried holding Alt and the Num Lock on the keyboard and on the on-screen keyboard, but get no results with that. Quote from: Chuck789 on July 07, 2010, 02:13:05 PM<blockquote>I don't know how you mean I can disable the Alt key using the on-screen keyboard. <br/><br/></blockquote>I don't either. <br/>Did you try disabling sticky keys?Tried a brand new keyboard ? ?<br/>Quote from: patio on July 07, 2010, 06:20:30 PM<blockquote>Tried a brand new keyboard ? ?<br/><br/></blockquote><br/>It's a laptop.<br/><br/>Quote<blockquote><br/>I have plugged a PS2 keyboard into the laptop, but it does not even recognize it.<br/></blockquote>Whooops...my bad.<br/>Though i wonder why it wouldn't recognise an external keyboard...<br/>May be part of the puzzleQuote from: patio on July 07, 2010, 06:55:49 PM<blockquote>Though i wonder why it wouldn't recognise an external keyboard...<br/>May be part of the puzzle<br/></blockquote><br/>Agreed. Perhaps a USB keyboard?Thanks everyone for the comments and discussion. <br/><br/>I have checked out Sticky Keys and that's not the problem.<br/><br/>I have no idea why the external PS2 keyboard does not work. When I plug it in, the lights on the keyboard flash (like I think they are supposed to do), but that's it. It doesn't recognize any of the keys, including Caps Lock and Num Lock. I don't have a USB keyboard so I can't try that. <br/><br/>I've located a keyboard on eBay and will try for it and hope it works. Of course, I won't get it for another week or so. <br/><br/>To replace the keyboard, do I simply remove the keyboard ribbon from the motherboard and insert the ribbon from the new keyboard? Sounds simple enough. <br/><br/>Thanks, again.<br/></body></html> | |
