  3. Mat777. We have offered you loads of help and used up valuble time. You have been offered ways of backing up data. Offered the recovery console. Offered the e-Recovery. Even malware help. Shall I go on and on? It appears you shirt around the fixes,you have not attempted any fixes. You ignore the help and post another meanigless question which appears to have no meaning or point to it. You login read your thread and start to wander around the forum reading and posting other meanigless threads. Ignore the fact help was offered again to you. You have wasted our valuble members help offered to you. You have wasted staff time and pushed my buttons. I have no time for time wasters and idiots. Hence your thread is closed and you can go and waste others time on other forums. Goodbye.

  9. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n198/jelly-bean_a1/Picture013.jpg?t=1243887943 I was given this laptop some time ago. Told to fix it I laughed so much. It got binned. Anyone identify this laptop? Give you a hint its a Toshiba.
  10. Yes you can if you wish to. However as you have a disk that is not legal we cannot help you with the install. Although you know how to do this you can continue if you wish. All I can say is if the install doesnt work that C partition maybe dead. This thread is now closed.
  11. You can delte D while in the install process or once installed XP on C drive via a third party software. Delete D and resize C during install.
  12. Kin if your data is backed up then reinstall windows on C drive and let me know if that works. During the install you can delete and resize partitions.
  13. If all files are backed up else were then I would reinstall windows or use the recovery console. Although if there was a hidden recovery on D drive it is now lost as windows is installed on it. The issue maybe C is dead and he needs a new hard drive. If its dead then there is no way to resize the partition. Or possibly C needs to be formatted via disk management?
  14. I would plug the hard drive into another computer as a slave and remove the data.
  15. Remove RAM and place in the first two slots two matching sticks is it showing up?

Shake the window a bit by quickly dragging it left and right. When the desktop clears, drop. To restore the desktop: Left click and hold on the Title Bar of the same window. Shake the window a bit by quickly dragging it left and right. When the minimized windows return to the desktop, drop (release the left click) the window. Try this Secret: When you right click on a file/icon you see the usal items in the list,Open/Send to and so on. Hold down the Shift key while right-clicking on the icon, and then try the Send To menu. Wow loads of things in the list of send to. If you want any of those to show up normally without holding down the Shift key, you can create shortcuts in the Send To folder. Just type the following into the location bar: shell:sendto And then drag shortcuts to your preferred folders into this folder. To open command prompt: Just hold down the Shift Key and right click on the desktop. And then you can choose Open Command Window Here from the menu. But then again just right click on a folder and choose Open command prompt window here. Stretch out on extra displays: It’s now far easier to extend the Windows desktop on to secondary displays.

This will get you back up and running with Vista. However you may find Vista a little buggy,if you do then I am afraid it is reinstall Vista.
