Accidentally Formatted Windows 7 - Possible To Get Files Back?
Mar 15, 2012I've been having problems with Windows 7, then I formatted and that fixed the problem. However, is there a way to get my back all of my old files? If so, I'd like to know. I tried using the Emergency Backup and that recovered a couple of my old files. But there are still a lot of files that couldn't be recovered by the backup. Is there anyway I can recover other files that were lost when I formatted? I've tried a few things like Pandora Recovery and EASEUS, but they didn't do exactly what I wanted them to. They seemed to only be able to recover certain file types and not special file types. Any way I can restore all the files I had before I accidentally formatted?

Mar 27, 2011I used to have ubuntu dual booted with win 7.then i decided i didn't want ubuntu dual booted anymore and wanted my boot up to automatically boot win7.I deleted the ubuntu partition, but then I lost my boot up menu during startup.So I ran the Win 7 Ultimate disk in hopes to repair that.Instead I ended up with a fresh install that seems to be a seperate partition.the good news is it fixed my boot up , but now I have the option of 2 win 7s when I boot.I want to have just 1.and i think the one I want to keep is the fresh install, so my question is.How can I make my new install of win 7 be the only operating system on my computer. The older win7 i have is the one i have been using , but think i want to put all my data i need on a external hard drive, then delete that partition, then make the new fresh installled win 7 as my only operating system on my laptop.

Jun 11, 2011So i've got a netbook from school and I successfully deleted the admin password by putting the HDD into my desktop and clearing it. Now my friends want me to do it to theirs, and I've got one of theirs with me now, and I thought rather than clearing the password I could find out the password so I could do the others easier.I've used OphCrack with the "Vista Free" and "Vista Special" tables and neither of them can find the password. Is there anything else I can do to find out the Administrator password

Feb 16, 2012New laptop, it was shut down or closed during the update and now is frozen on the 7 of 8 screen and just hangs there. I cannot reboot and it did not come with a recovery disk. I can't get it to come off this screen at all. I tried shutting it off but an orange light flashes and when I turn it back on it's still on that screen. Since I have no recovery cd or repair CD what do I need to do? If I have to restore I really could care less as I don't have too much on it because it's new. Maybe some photos but whatever.

Aug 7, 2012I recently bought a Samsung RV515 with Win 7 installed. I have been using Win Xp for years. Could not get the hang of Win 7 so I formatted the 500gb hard drive and installed Win Xp. I will not go through the problems this caused. Suffice to say I have since used my Recovery Disk to reinstall Win 7. Don't slap my wrist too hard for being a idiot. Now I cannot get on the Internet because the drivers and protocol are missing.I do not know what Internet Card this Laptop has installed or what drivers are required.

Apr 26, 2011put together my barebones system, installed Windows 7, and everything was great.Then Iinstalled Sony Vegas 10. The next time I tried to boot up, I got several BSODs and couldn't boot in any mode. Everything was not so great.After trying a few things, I formatted the HD in the hopes of starting fresh.Upon first bootup, I got a message saying that "NTLDR is missing."I've tried using the boot CD & USB method described [URL]but it hangs up in a DOS-looking screen on a line that says "[0.762735][<c01034a7>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10"So that's where I am right now.

May 3, 2011On Friday I attempted to install windows 7 ultimate x64 My existing machine is a XP Pro SP3 machine and it meets the system requirements as per Windows 7 upgrade advisor I booted from DVD and followed the steps up to selecting where to installl windows 7
This list showed me
Disk 0 Partition 1
Disk 1 Partition 1
Disk 1 Partition 2
Disk 0 is my C drive where my windows xp is installed - 300GB disk Disk 1 is where is store my files: pictures, music, documents etc - 500GB disk Partition 2 of Disk 1 is unallocated 9GB I selected Disk 0 Partition 1 Then selected Disk Options Format Drive Clicked Ok to the message about destroying data And allowed the install to proceed What i intended / expected to happen was that windows 7 ultimate would be installed on drive C: (Disk 0) and that drive D: (Disk 1) would remain intact and untouched by the process The Windows 7 install completed successfully I logged on to my user account, activated my windows 7 copy I then looked at my disks and what i see is that: Drive C was formatted and windows 7 was installed there BUT The install process formatted drive D and copied the windows XP installation to that drive So i have lost a lot of data that i did not expect to, and, of course, had not backed up in ages. For now, anyway, thats beside the point.I then removed the windows 7 DVD from the drive and rebooted the PC When the disk was removed the machine booted to Windows XP - running from the copy taken earlier on Drive D However, when i replaced the DVD to try to boot to windows 7 again, it began the installation process from the start?I dont remember selecting a dual boot option during the initial install, but maybe the steps i took led me to something like that by some default?

View 3 Replies View RelatedNon-system Partition No Longer Formatted After Re-installing Windows 7?
Dec 29, 2011I have an Asus 1215n netbook. It came with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. The drive came with the following partitions:
100 GB Windows 7
15 GB Asus Expressgate (a quick-boot minimal OS)
118 GB Empty partition
15 MB (unknown)
I had been using TrueCrypt to encrypt the 100 GB system partition, which required that I enter a password before booting into windows.Other than that I never touched it until now. Today I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, so after making sure everything I wanted to keep was on the 118 GB partition, I booted into the Windows 7 setup, formatted *only the 100 GB partition* from within the setup, and selected it as the volume to which to install.Upon restarting, the third partition wasn't shown in My Computer. I went to Administrative Tools -> Computer Management -> Storage -> Disk Management, which shows the following partitions:
100 GB Healthy
15 GB Healthy
118 GB Free space
20 MB Healthy
I've done these exact steps in the past with similar configurations, and have never had this happen to me before. I can only surmise that this is due to having had a TrueCrypt boot manager, but beyond that I am uncertain. how I might be able to recover this partition?
Formatted Windows 7 PC For Fresh Start - Slow Boot Up
Oct 12, 2012I have been using windows 7 for some years. Recently I formatted my pc since unwanted programs, bugs, viruses and junk was accumulating and I wanted a fresh start. The pc came with windows 7 64bit pre-installed and the re-seller gave me a cd along with it. After I formatted the pc (I only formatted the c: drive, I kept all the important and backed up software, drivers and any important documents in the D: drive). After going through procedures and a successful installation the windows booted and apparently it took 5-10 minutes to get to the desktop icons.
Here are the things I did afterwards.
- I tried to boot in safe mode, it just get stuck at classpnp.sys.
- I re installed the os over 9 times now so don't ask to do that.
- I ran repair a lot of times. It does not work.
- I ran registry checks/cleanup, I installed all the correct drivers which are the latest.
- I not stop searched the whole web for 4 straight hours, I seen this happening with a lot of other users.
- Not hardware or software was installed just a clean format.
This happened at the very first boot up after os installation, so installed software's can be ruled out (non was installed). The computer is working just find but the boot up time .... Anyways I think that bios is responsible?
System Spec:
Acer Aspire M3910
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 750 @ 2.67Ghz
Memory : 4gb DDR3
Storage : 1 TB HDD
BIOS : American Megatrends PO1-AO
Windows 7 Not Recognizing Dual WBFS Formatted External HDD At Same Time
Mar 7, 2011as the topic states, my main desktop and my netbook cannot recognize having two identical external hdd's at the same time.It will recognize each seperate,but not both at the same time. The reason i need this is that i am backing up all my WII iso's
both hard drives are WD mypassport 500gb external portables (both powered by USB), and each are partitioned. on one partition its formated ntfs,the other WBFS and both are the exact same like that.
i guess im wondering if its because i named the second hdd drive x and drive z?
i got a warning when formating the second one something like (windows doesnt like when you name the hdd letters like x and z) what i dont get is that both drives can be recognized when plugged in seperately...
