  • Toshiba Kira - Win 8.1 cannot see all files on the 64 GB flash drive

    Hi all

    Newbie on this forum. I just bought the i5 8 GB of RAM Windows 8.1 Kira Ultrabook, a great little machine.

    I have a SanDisk 64 GB flash drive that has about 20 GB on it in a dozen files. These folders and the content can be seen by my Windows 7 PC, even my mobile phone and Tablet Tower.

    However, the Kira cannot see both files, even if in the properties of the drive, he sees the space correctly. Turned on all folders and no difference.
    My wife has a 32 GB flash - no problem.

    I reformatted the flash disk, run a virus on the disk and the Kira. The Kira can someone verify the maximum size flash can see it please? I can't find it in any documentation.

    Any help or suggestions appreciated - I ran support Toshiba without a response, so maybe someone here can help you.

    The appearance of the folder is not in your laptop model or your system!

    I recommend you to check some common view windows Explorer settings:

    (1) to see the hidden files and folders reported as
    Click the view tab, and then click Show hidden files and folders.

    (2) to display all the system files that are usually hidden from view.
    Click on the view tab, and then clear the Hide protected operating system files check box.

    Here you will find all the information about the folder views and behavior

  • Slow data transfer for USB flash drives

    When I transfer a file to a USB flash drive, the transfer is very slow. I checked my USB host controllers and they work very well. There seems not to be of hardware problems. Here is the Dell gx270s, the two XP Professional SP3 running computers. I didn't find any solution on the support site for anyone. Controllers are Intel. I used the Driver Max and it does no problem - but I wonder about the accuracy of this program.

    Anyone who has ever had this problem and figured it out?

    Michael Skladd

    Hello
     
     
    1. What is the brand and the model number of the flash player?
    2 is this problem limited to this flash drive?
    3 are. what transfer speed you now?
     
    Check if the transfer rate is the same on another computer. Also, try using a player different flsah on this computer and compare the transfer rate. I would ask you to update the drivers for the chipset on the Dell site.
     
    I hope this helps.

  • No driver for the Flash drive on the HP website

    Hello.

    I just bought a HP USB Flash Drive v125w of Fry.

    I just wanted to save my files if I can get a new computer.

    After putting in the Flash drive, my computer said that there is no driver.

    So I go to the HP website to download a driver for this product.

    I can't find a. I can find a driver for the v120w driver, but not my v125w driver.

    This is a new product... Why is there not a driver?

    I call HP and ask... where can I get a driver? Why is there a driver for this product? And if it does not exist, can you please tell me what Flash Player I can use with my Windows 98 computer?

    Of course, they can not answer simple questions. They don't know anything. All they can say is "if it isn't on the Web site, then there no driver." They can advise me on Flash Drive can I use for my Windows 98 computer, and where a driver is available.

    I can't believe that I've had to work so hard to get so little information. Incredible.

    Can someone help me?  I just need a pilot to save my files so I can get a new computer.  Someone can tell me which driver I can use for Windows 98 and has a driver to help me install it?

    I can't believe that HP could not answer that for me. Totally LAME.

    Message edited by Soliel 08/25/2009 12:51

    Thanks for the reply.

    Just for the record, I punched in this product several times in different ways and came up with nothing on the HP site.  I came to the top with the 120 series but not the 125.  I don't know how you did it, but I couldn't.

    And the package doesn't say anything about compatibility.  He uses that word at all.

    Nevertheless, I thought it on mine... without the help of HP.

  • Cannot remove a disabled user account

    Hiya!

    When I start my laptop I have three accounts, the one I use for my family when they really need to use, special guests and another account. That other account still connect for some reason, but when I click it, it said: your account has been disabled, please consult your system administrator.

    Now, I wanted to delete this account because it is causing trouble, but it does not appear in Control Panel. What can I do?

    Well I close my laptop, it brought on the day before, and then when I open it it will show me to select the account (as you would with any account that has a password), and underneath it says connected. I don't think this is supposed to be like that tho.

    If I turn my phone it will say: there are other connected users, they might lose data and whatever.

    OK, we're going to investigate this mysterious account. Please follow these steps:

    1. Click the start planet.
    2. Type cmd.exe in the search box and press enter
    3. Type the following commands exactly and press ENTER after each one:
      Set Log="%UserProfile%\Desktop\Log.txt".
      setting user > Log %
      NET users > Log %
      net users
      (now remember the name of the account involved in the list. "I'll call it xxx.)
      NET user "xxx" > Log %
      net localgroup administrators > Log %
      c:\Users dir > Log %
      Log %
    4. Mark and copy the text that you see and then paste in your response.

  • Cannot find the printer Laserjet 5100 for Windows 7 driver

    I have a HP Laserjet 5100 printer installed on a computer running XP that is on a network without internet access working group.  I have a new Windows 7 computer to the same workgroup.  I want to print documents created on Windows 7 computer with the Laserjet Printer, but I need to install the printer driver Windows 7 to do this.  The drivers of HP support site says the necessary driver is built into Windows 7, but it tells me it's name or I would like to download it.  Suggestions on how to find or download the driver or what is called?

    Hi micror,.

    Drivers for Windows 7 are only available online through Windows Update...

    If the specific computer is unable to access the web, you can download the drivers from the Microsoft Update Catalog.

    As you the not mentioned your operating system type, you can find the two options below...

    If you are not sure of your type of operating system, follow the steps below:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02033168

    For the edition of 32-bit operating system, use the first result, 64-bit for the third or the fifth option (that very of your processor type, wrong that does not...)

    http://catalog.update.Microsoft.com/v7/site/search.aspx?q=LaserJet%205100

    To download the Microsoft driver, first add the required file to the basket.

    Then click on view basket and follow the download link...

    Because the packet is compressed, you will need to use any archiver program to extract (for example Winrar).

    Last but not least, as a printer is installed on Windows XP can not be automatically shared with the new client OS you need to add drivers to manually as follows:

    1. After you download the right driver to extract it to a temporary folder.
    2. From the Client (Windows 7) go to printers and devices and click Add a printer.
    3. Select this option to add a local printer
    4. From the port selection screen you can create a new port by selecting a Local Port.
    5. In the port name fill a \\HOSTNAME\Sharename prefix
      • To locate the host name of your HOST computer (XP PC), made a right click my computer and select Properties, the hostname will be listed on this screen...
      • To locate the name of the share go to printers and faxes, click right-click the printer icon and select Properties... Then, go to the sharing tab and appears the share name.
    6. Continue add it an assistant of the printer and the driver selection, click on disk... Browse ocntaining pilots the INF folder from your printer.

    Good luck

    After you synchronize files in the USB check if media files are present in the flash player.

  • Windows media player I can't find a way to remove photos, or download it to a flash drive

    I have a bunch of pictures I want to get off Windows Media Player and I can't figure out how do it.

    The best would be to go into your folder of photos where the photos are actually saved.

    In fact, when you are in Windows Media Player, you can select (highlight)
    a file and choose in the menu "open file location".

    The following steps may be worth a try:

    Once you have accessed the right folder... Select the photos you want to add to
    the flash player.

    The group selected (highlighted) right click and choose... Copy.

    Reach... Start button / computer... your USB should be recognized
    with a drive letter.

    Right-click on the drive letter that represents the flash drive and choose... Dough.

    Right click on the selected group of photos and the menu another option...
    choose... Send to / {select the drive corresponding to the Flash drive letter}

    The Photos must transfer.

    Here is an article on how to enable Ready boost for vista: http://www.windowvistarepair.com/articles/Enable_Ready_Boost_for_Windows_Vista.html.

    Here is a good article on how to use Ready Boost (with links to related topics):http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/81381-readyboost.html.

    Read what the above to understand the product and how to install, configure, troubleshoot and use it.  This will give you the background you need to solve the problem.

    Once done, then install Ready Boost and the USB key as if it were the first time (format the drive if you can unless you have data on it, you do not want to lose and don't want to take the time to move elsewhere to do the formatting, and then move it back once Ready Boost works again).
