Aspire One d255 does not recognize the usb connected external ssd drive

I want to replace the original HDD 160 GB with a 120 GB Samsung ssd 750 evo but bios and win 10 does not recognize the ssd drive as an external drive connected via a usb connection, so I couldn't create an image of my internal hard drive.  Is there a way to clone my hard drive SSD, so I can exchange the disc later?  I need to update the bios, install a missing driver, etc. ?

I used two different connections: one is a 2.5 "SATA case disc that I used with a disk 2.5" HARD and works very well with the HARD drive and the other is SATA/IDE connector combination with cables for SATA and power and none of these works.  I read in another forum during my research that the Aspire One d255 doesn't recognize any external SSD connected through a USB either.  Since my netbook has no data, and I had just a pure 10 Windows installed on his drive HARD internal, I removed the 160 GB HARD drive and replaced by a 120 GB SSD and installed another Windows own 10.  It worked and my system boots now in less than 20 seconds.   We can close this thread now since I now have a faster machine fully function.  Thank you!

  • Satellite A200-1AE does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive

    I have a problem because my satellite A200-1AE with Microsoft Vista does not recognize the USB 2.0 flash drive. He asks me a program/software!
    The same USB works without problem on other computers with vista!

    Someone knows what to do?

    Hello

    First of all, you must disconnect all USB devices and must remove the USB ports and controllers in the Device Manager.
    After this procedure, you must restart the laptop. After a new restart the Vista operating system should recognize the USB ports and should reinstall USB drivers again.

    Then you must update the Vista to the State! All fixes and patches must be installed. Please note that you will have to visit the MS Update site for all patches

    Notes; MS has released a beta of Vista SP1. I installed it on my laptop and it has solved several problems.

  • Windows 7 does not recognize the new WD external hard drive added to the usb port

    Recently, I tried to add my third USB WD hard drive to my computer.  It's a My Book Essential.  The meter turns and the virtual cd drive is listed in WD, but the hard drive itself does not appear on the list of devices with a drive letter.  My my first two books are readers: J:, and L: I have no "new device found" message   I search for new devices and it the PC do not find anything.  If I click on the virtual CD drive (M :) it askes if I want the computer to allow WD to make changes...)

  • DreamColor LP2480zx does not recognize the USB for calibration

    Hello

    I have a DreamColor LP2480zx, which does not recognize the USB connection to the computer during calibration.  I have my eye HP connected through this monitor, so I know the connection and the cable is good and mouse, keyboard.  My setup is like this:

    Reference Dell 690 running 64 bit + Windows XP

    DreamColor LP2480zx

    Apple Cinema Display 23 "

    I bought the DreamColor used, and in all other respects, it seems to work very well.  The original owner didn't have it calibrated within a certain time, but said that having had no problem with the previous calibration.  I installed the last APS (version 2.0) and updated to the latest firmware.  These updates produces no change in recognition USB problem.

    The interesting thing is, I was able to calibrate the Apple Cinema Display, using the same configuration of connection (mouse, keyboard, and HP eye connected to the computer via the LP2480zx) APS was able to see the USB connection and this very well calibrated monitor.

    I had trouble with this problem for a few days.  I've looked around quite a bit online and found a few others who have this same problem, but I did not yet find someone who can point out a solution.  If anyone has had this same problem, or has heard of results that correct it, please let me know, because it's very frustrating.

    Thanks for any help

    Clay

    An update to my previous post, I realized a work around for this problem.

    Apparently, this problem has to do with the Dreamcolor screen and/or software APS do not like working with 64 bit systems.  I'm not saying that it is always the case, but I saw the other posts on this problem on 64-bit systems, and I spoke with two other people personally who told me that they also had the same problem, try to calibrate its Dreamcolor monitor when it was attached to a 64-bit system.  HP does not seem to be concerned about this problem, because they do not even recognize its existence, but since I'm far from being the first to report this problem, he's obviously not a one-time problem.

    My solution was this: I had connect the monitor to a regular running XP 32 bit system.  After I did, I could re - calibrate the monitor without the problem of USB connection.  This isn't a very good solution because not everyone has access to several machines, running different operating systems.  But it's a work around, and it worked for me.

    Hope this helps other people who have this same problem with their Dreamcolor monitors hooked to their 64-bit systems.

    Clay

    PS- I posted this as resolved, only because I was able to calibrate my monitor.  It's not really solved the problem, but it gets the monitor working again.  Maybe HP will address this problem in the future, but I'm not holding my breath.

    I buy the art external disk HARD Stor E 3.5 "and spend a few days in windows does not recognize the HARD drive. Try to connect the drive to other USB 2 ports and nothing happens. Use a USB to see if has been a problem with the USB ports, but all 3 are OK. Try it on the laptop Asus and windows 7 recognizes the HARD disk. I formatted the drive in NTFS FS. In managing records do not show the external HARD disk. What can I do to fix this?

    This is a really silly situation. It can be recognized by other laptops but not your Qosmio.
    According to the description of your HARD drive when connected simply doesn t exist for your Qosmio laptop.

    Some other HDD is recognized correctly?
    What you can try is to reinstall the chipset driver, restart the laptop and test it again.

    Hello

    Is your AC adapter malfunctions or there is something wrong with the power supply to electronic s laptop.
    In the first case you could purchase a new compatible AC adapter and could check if the laptop can run successfully.
    The second possibility is a serious hardware problem, but in this case, the laptop must be checked by an authorized technician.

  • Recovery media creator does not recognize the USB 32 GB on Satellite L750?

    I hope that there is someone here who can help you:

    My computer is a computer L750 x 64 based Satellite and the problem is that the sound disappears after a few seconds, when I hear the music from Youtube.

    I read in the preinstalled usermanual can I restore the computer pressing F8 when the computer starts, but it does not work.

    The continuous computer just on Windows 7.
    Now I want to restore the computer to the factory standard and will therefore use the Recovery Media Creator but it does not work.

    I want to save data on a 32 GB USB key, but it will not recognize the stick.
    I know that 32 GB is without error, because I can easily store / retrieve data either with FAT and NTFS systems.

    What I am doing wrong and is there anyone who has a good idea, so I can spend?
    best regards Erik

    Even if your USB is working correctly outside of the recovery media creator, this does not mean that it should be handled properly by this tool.

    I had problems creating recovery DVDs even though I was able to burn video files on the same disk.
    As far as I know you must take at least 16GB USB flash memory stick
    Usually, this should work.

    But I m wondering why you are not able to use HARD drive recovery option. Have you changed anything on the HARD drive?

    Hello Chuck,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    1. You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?
    2. Do you have an error message when it is not detected? If YES, what is the exact and complete error message that you receive?

    I understand that the USB device is not detected by your computer. The question may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows. This can also occur if your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest trying the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Please the fixit (s) following provided below. They will help you solve common problems related to devices, and USB ports.

    2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
    3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    5. Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

    If the problem persists, go to method 3.

    Method 3:

    This method will install the latest drivers from device to your USB device.

    1. Click the Start button, type Windows Update in the search box, and then click Windows Update in the results pane.
    2. Click find updates. When the scan finished, click optional review updates.
    3. Click the check box next to the update, and then click install updates.
    4. If you are prompted, read the license agreement, then click I agree.
