I cannot get my Posiflex PC to recognize the USB-CDrom drive. However, it will boot off of the USB-Floppy. I have switched USB connections between floppy/CDrom, but had same results.

You will need a posiflex cdrom if you are using usb. It will start and then bomb out if it is not a posiflex specific. Open up the unit and use an ide cdrom and when you are finished remove it.

If you have the restore disks than you can use a usb cd-rom and go into the bios and choose usb cd-rom as a boot option. It will then start the restoration process for you.

I'm assuming that you do not have a cd or floppy drive on the terminal. Well i had a similiar terminal with no cd or floppy drive and i managed to re-install the os by removing the hard drive, mounting it on an existing machine with windows 2000 machine then i copied the installation to the hard drive by using the winnt32 command ine utility. So lets say that you remove the hard drive and mount it to another PC(In my case it was a laptop harddrive 2.5" and i needed a converter)and on the pc I formatted it and it was designated as drive G:. My cd rom is drive E: With the windows 2000 cd rom in the drive from the command prompt i typed E:\i386\winnt32 /makelocalsource /syspart:G /tempdrive:G After that completes i put back in the hard drive in the terminal and boot the terminal and i continue with setup. I hope this was helpful!

I accidentally deleted connection when trying to get rid of a Built up printing queue! Having done anything manually, only on screen! Help please

Turn off the printer first. Try unplugging the cable between your computer and your printer and re-plugging it back in. Then turn on your printer and hopefully it will allow you to add the printers operating software which is known as a print driver. Good luck !

Touch pad freezes when power is connected and usb port dont work

Possible that your OS is corrupt and might need a reinstallation. The OS must be loaded and then the drivers of the PC must be loaded. Make sure that you use a good anti-virus so as to prevent malwares to corupt the OS.
If the PC boots try to RESTORE , scan for virus before you can finally reload the OS.

Hi,
Welcome to Fixya Support
I am Michelle, and i will be assisting you regarding the issue
In case your system came with Windows 7 preloaded, in that case you can run the one key recovery tool. the ool willrestore your computer back to factory image. To run the tool, simply turn off the system, press the Novo button on the keypad. it would be on the very top. this would load the one keyrecovery where you can use the restore feature to reload the original image. in this cae the drivers and software that came with system will also get loaded.

In case, windows 7 was installed later by the dealer in that case you need to reinstall windows 7 with the operating system disc.

click on the below link that has the steps for the os reinstallation process.

Computer Crash

If your OS is Windows XP or Vista, you can try using the System Restore. Back up to a date prior to your having trouble.

If that doesn't work, then be sure to back-up all of your data and then try a repair/restore.

To do this start your PC with the OS disk installed in the CD drive. Start the OS instaqllation. Ignore the first repair opportunity that you have, but do use the second one taht comes up. That will perform a reinstallation of your OS without overwriting your personal data and settings. BACK-UP YOUR DATA B4 YOU TRY ANTHING!!!!
