xen Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I just got a new computer and it comes with a reinstall disk, or at least I gather it is. Says for use with existing OS etc. My girl NEEDS to start over. Her cousin imagined himself a h4x0r and apparantly got pwned (i'll stop now) So If I take that disk and slap in it in, will that start her shit from scratch (Windows XP on both) or will I have to buy a disk? What if I were to (pirate) buy vista? And what doews reformat mean in english? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if I were to (pirate) buy vista? And what doews reformat mean in english? to reformat is to erase the hard drive and literally start over. i don't know about your restore disc....i do know that xp is better and faster than vista. you should get tiny xp (torrent site) and start over with that.

Milk Grenades Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 ok. well it's probably not as difficult as i'm making it seem. but, i'm getting a new computer at work soon, so i need to transfer all my personal files to disk. the problem is, my computer doesn't have a cdr/rw/dvd drive, so i'm borrowing a lite-on it ez dub burner with usb cable, but i don't have the software disk. i tried looking online, but i'm not seeing it. i'm not sure if i can just download different software, or if i need to find the download for the specific burner?

shai Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 You shouldn't need drivers for it. Try plugging it in and seeing what happens. What would be a million times easier would be to get your work to give you 40 bucks so you can go buy a 4 GB flash drive. Then, if you wanted to burn the files to disk later you could.

Milk Grenades Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 i plugged it in and it was recognized as a massive storage drive, or something like that. i tried hitting the file button, but nothing happened. my work is cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 yer fine, yo dont need no software, just plug in the usb lite-on to the computer that you want the files off of go to easy transfer wizard and select how and what you need to transfer and yer all done plug the lite-on into the new computer run the easy transfer wizard again ( select continue transfer and everything will be sent over ( if you are transferring program settings from one computer to another be sure to install the programs on the new computer first before doing the transfer or you will have corrupt files Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
