• Cannot access the drive after you type the correct password for BitLocker. Access is denied.

  Hi all!

  I really have a problem with my disc drive BitLocker encrypted.

  On my PC at the beginning (from 2009), with OS win7, I encrypted my external WD 500 GB MY BOOK hard drive.

  Unfortunately, old PC died:(et il y a un problème.)

  Now on my new computer with win7 OS or another, I can't access my WD 500 GB MY BOOK external hard drive?

  my first try the solution: I try to unlock the drive with my correct password and everything seems OK, drive is unlocked, but when I try to enter the disk I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

  After that, I try another option.

  try my second solution: In Control Panel > system and security > BitLocker Drive Encriptación I chose my encrypted disk and try to decrypt the drive. After maybe 7 hours and 99 percent, I got a pop-up message with the error. I don't remember now exactly how was the message.

  Now, when I log on windows, on another device (laptop) when I attach my WD 500 GB MY BOOKoutside, drive in my computer , I have the following status: my external WD MY BOOK 500 GBhard drive is unlocked, visible and recognized as a drive J:\, but I can't access it.

  When I try to enter again the drive, I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

  Also, I have the correct password and BitLocker recovery key stored correctly the USB onmy.

  Help, please

  Best.

In Windows 8, I can get the properties of the disk on my C drive by right clicking, but not on any other drive.

When the analysis is complete, the System File Checker tool indicates whether integrity violations were found. If integrity violations are detected, the System File Checker tool difficulty integrity violations.

  Follow these steps to run sfc/scan.

  a. press Windows + X and click/click on (Admin) command prompt.

  b b.. in the elevated command prompt, type sfc/scannow , and then press enter.

  NOTE: It can take some time to finish the race.

• Cannot access the drive HARD Toshiba PX1267E - 1 32 - file ONSPCCH.ini problem

  I have a Toshiba PX1267E - 32 1 external hard drive as well. It was working fine with my Vista Home Premium OS and has all my data backup on it. It has been password protected.

  My desktop HARD drive failed last week and was replaced and an old recovery disc of 12 months used to rebuild.

  I then tried to access the external HARD disk to restore the backup I ran the day before the accident, but when I enter the password (that I know is certainly correct) I get the same error as others posting here. He suggested that the input data does not match the information contained in the ONSPCCH.ini file.

  I can't disable or change the password as will erase all the data on the external HARD drive. The previous messages direct me on the site of Toshiba, but the options to download an updated driver is no longer correspond to the options available online.

  Help, please! :-(

  I have a Lacie D2 Quadra (1 to) I've had for a year now, which worked fine under Vista until about a month when I did a windows update. Since then, he said, I had to reformat my hard drive. Needless to say, I don't want to do that.

I ran antivirus on my computer and the drive and nothing. then check that the drivers are up to date... they are. can someone help me.

• multicolored lines running through the screen of my computer Vista laptop window up and down

  multicolored lines on the screen of my laptop window Vista from the top to down manufacturing

  blurr photos and texts.
  seem as if a screen is placed on the desktop.

  This could be a hardware problem unfortunately (has no module or graphic display error).

  Is the problem if you start in safe mode?

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  There is a glimmer of hope that it could be a driver problem. If it's OK in safe mode, then it is to try a system restore to a well known date or try to update the graphics driver.

• Cannot access the network drive after trying to change the shared folder.

  I had a 80 GB drive connected to my E3000 for a few years and it worked without problem. I recently turned to a 250 GB Maxtor One Touch drive. When I plugged it, the router automatically creates a shared folder. I was able to connect to this folder without problem, but I wanted to share the whole score. When I made this adjustment and tried to save the settings, I temporarily lost access to the router. He gave me the standard page cannot be error message appears. When I got access changes seem to be made. When I try to access the drive of my laptop I get this error message, "the mapped network drive could be created", "the name specified network is no longer available". I rebooted and power rolled my router as well reconnected the drive.

  I think that since you have replaced your hard drive, old settings are configured may still on the hard drive of old. You can change the users and group so that it syncs with the new hard drive or start from scratch (reformat the hard drive).

• Error: "the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." when treid to install the device driver

  Original title: Windows cannot install the drivers

  I had a lot of trouble installing the drivers on my Windows computer.  I went straight in the Device Manager and deleted the devices I tried to install and reinstalled them, I went into safe mode, I got Windows to run the console and only the basic process and run from there Device Manager... no matter what I do the same mistake.

  "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process".

  Even after a restore of the system, he did this, and I don't know what to do anymore.  Only devices that have been previously installed work.

  What's more important install my Blackberry software because my phone is broken.  The software cannot detect my phone because the drivers have not been installed.  Most of the devices I can use with Linux (I have Windows Vista and Ubuntu running on the same computer), but RIM don't make Blackberry for Linux software, so I have to do it on Windows.

• Cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.

  When I try to backup Quicken, I received the error: cannot access the disk in the drive E:, please make sure that the drive is ready and the disk is not write protected.  My last backup of Quicken was 16/07/2010.  I don't know why I can't back up now.  Is there a way to fix this?

  Why not save to a folder on your hard drive and burn them to a CD - R from there? I can't tell from the little you wrote if the problem is with Quicken (not work or you have incorrectly backup location) or with your CD - RW drive. How about more details to work with?
