  Any ideas of what I could try to fix this or what Im missing drivers?

  Also, when I try to review for the drivers I see only a X: drive that does not have the same directories as on my USB key. For example, I downloaded the drivers SATA of MSI and copied on USB to see if that helps. But when I try to search for it I can not even find the files. Does this mean that my USB is not detected?

  Thank you

  See if that helps the z170 and Skylake use xhci instead of ahci, so you will need a creative tool special iso usb.

• Windows backup from Dell datasafe local upward

  I recently bought a computer from Dell desktop with windows 7.  One of the first things I did was set up all my settings backup / schedule in Windows.  I used the Windows recommended default settings regarding data is saved and set my backup on external drive WD attached location.  Everything seems to work very well.

  That said, this machine has also installed backup software (Dell Datasafe local backup) which does its thing and data backup in a partition on the 'C' drive to the Dell factory.  My question is if I have install Windows to backup my data on an external drive, even do I the Dell Datasafe local backup program at all?  There are fears the program is using the space on my C drive and if the C drive should plant having the backup of information about this seems little useless for me anyway.

  Thank you!

  Hi len62,

  the short answer is Yes you do not need datasafe, there is never two much back ups. as you never know when something will go wrong. and datasafe allows you repiar your system without losing the personal data or files. If your printer dell made a backup is corrupt then you have windows upward to fall back on and the opisite also apply. I am attaching the support link explianing what the in dell datasafe and benefits http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?c=ca&cs=cabsdt1&dl=false&l=en&s=bsd&docid=62A5FEC442F5C1CBE040AE0AB8E17091&doclang=en

• x131e install Win10 from USB?

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows from a USB key (created via the Microsoft Web site) and I can't find a way to get the computer to recognize it.

  In the BIOS it has options to boot from a USB HDD, USB FD and CD USB. Move one of these to the top command of the start menu does not work. By pressing f12 displays a menu with 3 X entrances to start Windows, one for the hard drive (which is an empty SSD) and a network boot option. But there is no USB option. Displacement of the USB to USB2 and USB3 ports makes no difference.

  Is there a way to get the computer to boot from the USB key to install Windows 10?

  Or do I have to download an ISO of 10 Windows to create a CD and use an external USB CD/DVD drive?

  Thanks for any help on this.

  Changed the setting of UEFI in the BIOS and installing key USB Win10 worked like a charm.

• Re: Satellite NB10T-A-101 - cannot boot from USB key

  Hello

  I bought a new Toshiba Satellite NB10T-A-101 and want to improve performance by changing the HDD with a SSD and install windows Pro 8.1.

  However, I am unable to boot from USB, it always mention:
  + Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key. +

  I already disabled secure, used 5 + usb startup different sticks (work fine on other laptops).

  Can you please tell me what the approach is to change the HARD drive and then boot from a USB bootable (UEFI).

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Laptop Satellite NB10T-A-101 was equipped with an Intel CPU 2810 n which is part of the new Intel Bay Trail-M platform.

  This new technology Intel Bay Trail allows installation of UEFI capable systems:
  Win 8 or 8.1 Win

  Just a few questions:
  Have you already changed the HARD drive to SSD drive?
  If so, the new SSD is recognized in the BIOS?
  Have you tried to boot from the USB flash memory stick 8.1 Win until you changed your SSD drive?

• Install XP from USB (mini netbook, notebook)

  can I install XP from a USB key or USB hard drive.
  I see things on the internet about third-party utilities to do. but then I see other places where it says that it cannot be done.

  If this is not the case, what people are doing with no CD or DVD drive to install/reinstall windows?

  Too risky and complicated.
  I'll try to install XP pro or Ubuntu Server if possible. Is this possible?

• Yosemite - tried erasing to reinstall. Cannot identify or boot from USB?

  So I tried to erase the hard drive Macintosh utility disk in Recovery Mode. It seems to have been a problem in the process. Now I am unable to remove anything else, or delete.

  I tried to create a USB Bootable for clean installation with El Capitan (terminal: sudo/Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ El\ Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia--volume/Volumes/Untitled--applicationpath Applications / Install\ OS\ El\ Capitan .app X\ - nointeraction) but just get a black screen with a symbol O after trying to start. Now, I can't even connect to the original user profile which inexplicably still exists. He is trying to open a session and then returned to a black screen with a symbol O.

  Disc checked and repaired without apparent problem. What have I done?

  Your internal hard drive is not partitioned properly.  Your drive should be

  APPLE HDD (model/size)

  Macintosh HD

  Let trendy USB. Stop. Hold down command + keys R turning into recovery. Use disk there to clear utility and then create the Macintosh HD partition. You will then be able to install.

  You've created an installer that will initialize screen install OS X or allow the start of recovery. It does not start as an OS installed X. "createinstallmedia" is an excellent tool for recovery, but it uses the whole USB. After running, you can dedicate a 8 GB USB Thumb drive for a backup installation media.

  Bravo!

• W510: problem booting from USB keys

  I tried to start a W510 of various Linux USB key.

  The system does not detect the USB and the boot proceeds to a point, but he fails when he tries to find the media - for example, in the case of the rescue system (v1.6.1) cd, it is looking fo the sysrec.dat file that is located on the USB.

  It seems that the USB device is not visible to the system booted.

  I was able to boot from essentially the same software on a CD.

  I installed the latest BIOS 1.32 without a change in behavior.

  Does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong?

• Error message "a required CD/DVD driver is missing" - install Windows7 via USB

  So I recently built a new office because my laptop fried itself, and I ran into the famous message "drver cd/dvd required is missing."  I tried many solutions to internet: change SATA AHCI, ATA, IDE; starting with only the hard drive; and the solution that works for 95% of the population: pulling out the USB and insert into another port to the Welcome screen.

  Nothing has worked.  I have downloaded the drivers for my motherboard out of their Web site, uncompressed them and put the files on the USB key.  The drivers are not yet recognised because they don't show up in the "Scanning for drivers.

  I used the tool Windows 7 USB Installation and WinToFlash to make the USB bootable, nor work.  I have my USB drive plugged into a port DAC - UP, because I read that Windows 7 is not supported with native support for USB3.0.

  Please help me!

  Well, I just fixed this problem.  I found a Youtube video on this specific issue, and he said that the non-existent USB3.0 support was to blame.

  I followed the video, mounted the USB3.0 drivers to the boot.wim and booted up my office as usual.  This time, he spent the error message and let me install Windows.

  I am so happy.

• Recovery USB key comes with write protection error when starting at the beginning of recovery

  I just got my key USB recovery flash in the mail from HP.  I have an ENVY 15 t-j100 Quad and I had accidentally wiped the OS off the coast of the SSHD.  I go into the BIOS, change the boot order, even tried disabling and enabling legacy mode secure boot and I get the same error once I have tell the laptop to boot with the USB key.  He comes up with an error cscript.exe and says that it is impossible to write in the C: disk because it is write protected.  I can cancel, try again or continue, but the laptop stops just after these buttons.

  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  Ryan

  I had set up the SSHD acceleration and 24 GB cache in a RAID0 configuration, as if it was before I wiped the OS.  Apparently, which caused the error, because recovery what USB works fine once I reset both drives non-RAID configurations.  I'll be able to put back them in a RAID0 once the OS is installed?

• USB keys - problem with the Recovery Manager

  I bought a 16GB Kingston DataTraveler 112 USB key so I could copy the recovery as a backup image. He acknowledged the USB key and showed that the recovery image has been slightly more than 11 GB. But when he started to format the USB key, it returns to the previous screen and asking more of the car. At the bottom of the screen, he said to contact the HP Support, but it gives me an error message. Now when I try the Recovery Manager it does not recognize the USB at all.

  Before that, I had bought another 16 GB USB - don't remember what brand. I have 5 other USB drives, but they are all small, except a 32 GB Kingston DT101 G2 which does not work on this computer, even if it worked on my old computer (Pavilion w/Vista Home Premium) without problem. All these USBs, including the new Kingston are for USB 2.0.

  Operating system is Windows 8.1 64-bit on the desktop HP Pavilion 500 - A60. I tried the problem that USB keys in all 4 ports (2.0 and 3.0). Also in that I plug into a port to give me 3 USB ports, also used on my previous computer.

  Is it possible that this computer does not recognize Kingston or some other brands of USB thumb drives?

  The trick to this is to use a USB 2.0 port and use a non-windows 8 certified thumbdrive. If the USB flash drive shows as a 'removable device' there should be no problem in the use of the media to create a recovery media

  I had a lot of success with a 16 GB Transcend USB 3.0 flash drive.

  I own a couple of DataTraveler flash drives and had the same lack of success, creation of recovery media that you did. I have had zero success with 3.0 of Sandisk Extreme usb flash drives
