Additional info:
File is not more than 4GB big, it's only a few KB (it's a Mozilla FF .json bookmarks backup).
Source is an OS SSD with all my Windows OS (unsure of file format, will need to check...
Hi all, I can't boot into Windows anymore so I was resigned to a clean install. I did not want to lose my files, software configurations etc... so I wanted to transfer them from my OS-drive (SSD) to...
Thanks so much for this! If that's ok I have a few questions (and sorry for zombie threading). This is the current situation
1) Can't even boot into windows, due to a corrupt registry
2) I can boot...
Any ideas? :( I tried to test with the 32bits version as well but for some reason my USB key built with Unetbootin doesn't boot, but installs Wubi... I wasn't able to try it.
Hi, I just got one of these (with the 500GB disk/hybrid SSD) and I'm running trying out Ubuntu before install (wanted to use GParted to partition the HDD).
However the trackpad isn't recognized at...
Any ideas..?
It's a MSI GTX460 Cyclone.
It's got Windows 7 64bits installed.
I freed up a 20GB partition for Ubuntu on it that's not yet formatted. I don't even get to the screen where I can chose which...
My system is self built:
ASUS P7P55D mobo
Core i3-540
MSI GTX460
4GB Corsair RAM
I tried both 64 and 32 bits.
First, the live session is constrained to 600 x 800... on a 22" screen. This...
Well I tried the live session... worked fine but it was stuck in 800 x 600 resolution on a 22" screen.
Then GParted simply would not launch at all. Nothing. Starts loading, loads and then...
I'm feeling lost that after 3 different Linux (I had to skip Lucid as it wouldn't install on my laptop) I still do not know what a torrent is or what it can let me do... Is it any worse to download...
Thanks. I'll probably do a wipe with Gparted from a live CD and then install W7 OEM.
The BIO resides on the mobo and as such there is 0 risk in wiping out a hard drive from a new system, is that...
I'm building a PC but there's a complete lack of W7 64 in English here in Luxembourg. So I ordered online a W7 home premium OEM 64 bits.
However I am not convinced by Ubuntu's 64bits version. I...
Ok I got it... booting the USB key live session with acpi=off but to no avail, it still hangs right after keyboard choice.
I have no blank CDs here so I can't try with a live CD for now.
Er... how do I do this..? I don't know what ACPI is... *googles*
I have the model with the T7300 CPU, 86000 GT GPU, 2GB RAM and 160GB HDD. Not sure of the model name.
Any idea..? I never tried another distro than Ubuntu so I'm wondering if it'd work this way too...
I would if I could. But I have VERY limited HDD space on my laptop.
And in fact said HDD is the issue... I can't even install Lucid on it. I thought I had a solution but nothing.
I tried with...
Weird... tried it again with a potential solution I read up on, changing the SATA mode to IDE, but to no avail. I used the latest version of Unetbootin to create the USB image.
I guess this one's...
I did it on a friend's desktop and it worked a treat. All her settings, passwords etc... remained.
Is there any catch to doing this or is it that easy?
Anyone..?
I saw a few of these laptops with Lucid installed but still no hope for mine? :(
How did it work out?
My installation gets stuck at the keyboard choice. I've not been able to progress any further.
Same with USB stick, or CD.
No other drives are connected.
It just gets...
8600 GT
Never caused any issues with Jaunty nor Karmic...
Still the same problem... Tried everything I think, no external drives or SD card plugged in, and still not installing. Just freezes when I press 'next' on the keyboard choice screen.
