• Low disk problem

  I have a low disk problem that I am having 40 GB hard disk and using Vista Ultimate as the operating system. How can I remove the space and which are the files may be deleted. Currently, I have removed most of the software.

  Information all that 'other Options' are in the link that I have already given:

  The other Options tab is available when you choose to clean up the files of all users on the computer. This tab includes two additional ways to free disk space even more:

  • Programs and features. Open programs and features in Control Panel, where you can uninstall programs you no longer use. The column size in programs and features shows how much disk space each program uses.

  • System Restore and shadow copies. Guests delete you all but the most recent restore point on the disc.

    Use system restore to return your system files to an earlier point in time, restore points. If your computer is running normally, you can save disk space by removing the previous restore points.

    In some editions of Windows Vista, restore points can include previous versions of files, called the shots and backup images created with Windows complete PC Backup. This information will also be deleted. For more information about system restore, search Windows Help and Support "system restore."

  See you soon.

• Satellite L650 - Windows detected a hard disk problem

  I have 9 as 4 months old satellite L650 that this microsoft Windows message keeps popping up. "Windows detected a hard disk problem, back up your files immediately to prevent the loss of information... etc" have I not a bum hard drive or is it a mistake?
  I have
  have the media discs to recover and this means that I have to reformat the HARD drive and try again. !

  Hi watthhel,

  I think the error message must be correct to Windows 7 and you must do what tells you the message: immediately back up your data and replace the HARD drive with a new one. In your case I would never save important files on the HARD drive. Too risky to lose important files

  Your laptop is 4 months old and that would mean it s covered by the warranty. Contact your local authorized service provider and ask for a replacement drive. They will exchange it and the service is free. :)

• On the Satellite C - Windows HARD disk failure has detected a HARD disk problem

  Since 2 days have been making repeated dialog "Windows detected a hard disk problem", warning of potential failures of the disc so back up, what I did. Disk in question is a Toshiba MK-5065GSXN.

  As a non-tech user, my instinct is that a new laptop is a better choice than to call Toshiba support for a laptop warranty (2 years) out of.

  On the other hand there may be a simple software fix. The opinion or advice welcome

  Hello

  The message says that something is wrong with the HARD drive.
  It might be possible that your HARD drive will die sooner or later so his need to backup data on another HARD drive, disk or flash memory.

  Finally, I must say you n don't need to buy a new laptop just because your HARD drive starts to hurt work in such cases purchase a new HARD drive and replace it
  HARD drive is not very expensive and the replacement of the HARD disk is very easy in your user manual

  PS: what model of laptop you have exactly?

• Why my computer says "Windows has detected a hard disk problem", even though it says that the drive works fine in the properties?

  Hello

  I was doing some courses on my computer until this window came on my screen and playback;
  "Windows detected a hard disk problem. I immediately went and checked in the properties to see the current status of the disk, and it says "this device is working properly" I am confused and decided to restart my computer. Again, read the error message and it says that the disc was allowed in properties. Every 15 minutes or so, the same error message. I'm running on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and have had the computer since 2008. Is this a virus? Or - is this just the computer falsely detect a problem?
  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you very much

  Liam

  What you see in the drive properties in Device Manager has to do with drivers and the drive configuration, not the real state 'physical' the reader.

  First of all, I error side of caution and if sure you have a backup of all your personal files, data, music, photos, contacts, movies, etc., external media (favorite external hard drive).

  Run the check disk (chkdsk); I suggest to run with two checked options, difficulty of file system errors and scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  How to run the check disk at startup in Vista or Windows 7

  Many manufacturers of computers and most hard disk manufacturers have diagnostic tools free you can download and run to check the status of your drive. Check on the web sites of their respective support.

• Windows detected a hard disk problem

  I have a dell dimension E520 running Vista Home Basic 32-bit. It is about 2 years old. After login, I get the following message in a dialog box. The message continues pop - up every 10 minutes, or so...

  "Windows detected a hard disk problem and you need to back up the files and contact the manufacturer to determine whether the disk should be repaired or replaced."

  "The next disk reports failure.
  Disc name: SAMSUNG HD160JJ/P
  Volume: /; C: /.

  I have run "chkdsk" and also contacted Dell who advised a full diagnosis running. This indicates that all aspects of the computer and the hard drive are ok.

  Hello tassie steve,.

  You should replace the disk, and then clone on all content, including the MBR (master boot record) to the new drive. What brand you buy, you'll be able to download this free utility software from their site. Do it now, while you can always transfer your data! Hope this helps you. Make it a great day!

• What is a Teredo Tunneling Interface Pseudso has a disk problem and can I fix it?

  My Windows 7 was freezing after I let it idle for a while. I have to do a hard reboot. Recently, I noticed that I had Dell support help agent and Dell update on my computer but I did not the it. They have been installed at the time my warranty missed. A forum said they had the same problem and the problem stopped after uninstalling them. It did for me too, for about two days but I'm back to freezing.

  Another forum says run diagnostics from the manufacturer. I did and I received two error messages. One was 0F00133C and the other was 0F001332 MAG DRIVE - request BIOCIC interrupt (IRO) has not indicated in time. At this point, the computer froze and wouldn't it be fun to just try again. Once again a forum said it was a sign of a dead hard drive.

  Just now under system and security of the Control Panel, I had Pseudso - Interface Teredo Runneling has a disk problem and hardware problem cannot have been detected.

  This computer can be solved without costing a fortune. They said I should also have other problems with a hard to die, but I did not. Would appreciate any help.

  A message box appears every 10 minutes saying "Windows detected a hard disk problem" disk name VOLUME: WDC WD3200BEVT - 602CTI ATA DEVICE: C:\;D:\        If I click on backup now (that I tried to do it on the hard drive Seagate and CD... and it gets to about 35 to 50% then fails)... it goes to the BSOD...

Help, please! ....

  The disc is a failure.

  Copy what you can from it to your backup device. You may need several attempts to make the copy.

  Don't try to backup the drive: is not remaining usable for long enough for a full backup complete.

  Then replace the disk and reinstall Windows and your applications and data, and retrieve your information from the user of the copied data.

• Windows detected a hard disk problem after factory reset?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C855D-S5320, not old at all. I tried to download a game and then got the BSOD. I had to reset my PC, lost what I had, but ended up from scratch. Now, every so often, I get a message saying "Windows detected a hard disk problem. Back up your files immediately to prevent the loss of information... ». I have right click the disk hard "defective" for the error checking, no errors found. I tried HD Tune Pro, and tells me 'Warning' for the State of health (05) reallocated sector count (failure) is red, and number of events (C4) reallocated (warning) is yellow. Does this mean I have to replace the hard drive? The computer was working completely fine until BSOD. Now it works and everything but I get this error message. The laptop is not only really old and never any injuries, but perhaps past warranty. I really have nothing left to save, because I lost everything when I have to reset it to factory State. Any advice?

  It's really up to you.  Sometimes there may be false positives, but it looks like your drive is really having some problems.  It was even the cause of the BSOD, who knows.

  You can follow the steps of my colleague here to check your drive for errors:
  http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/6221-chkdsk-check-drive-errors-Windows-8-a.html

  But really, I would take the advice and replace the drive.  Or at least be prepared for this 'die', then save your files somewhere else like OneDrive or something so you don't lose important information when it does.

• Increase the size of disk problems

  I just upgraded from Fusion 4 to 5 in preparation for the upgrade of Windows 7 to 8.  When I initially installed my VM several months ago, I waited to invite me on the amount of disk space, I wanted to allocate, but he never did the installation.  He created the virtual machine of 20 GB (boring), which would work if Windows ever wanted to do an update and that you ever wanted to save a file to the virtual computer.

  I used the Fusion to increase the size of the disc to 122 GB (I have over 600 GB available on my Mac) and it is distributed correctly and when I open windows the space was available on drive C.  However, when I discovered the virtual machine to the Virtual Machine in Fusion library it reads 20 GB.

  After more than an hour of reading of the VMWare knowledge base, I found an article that said that I had to increase the disk using Mac disk utility; However, this option is disabled/grayed out for me.  Another article proposed a ton of utility downloads to do this and overall I am lost.  It would be completely avoidable BS if the installation would have helped clarify the size of my disk on the installtion of the virtual machine.  Alas, it's wasn't the case.

  My question is does my windows hard disk shows 122 GB total space, but the library of virtual machines VMWare shows correct 20 GB and what can I expect if I start tyring upgrade to Windows 8 in terms of space?  Is there allocated 20 or 122 GB?

  Thank you.

  I just upgraded from Fusion 4 to 5 in preparation for the upgrade of Windows 7 to 8.  When I initially installed my VM several months ago, I waited to invite me on the amount of disk space, I wanted to allocate, but he never did the installation.  He created the virtual machine of 20 GB (boring), which would work if Windows ever wanted to do an update and that you ever wanted to save a file to the virtual computer.

  IIRC A Windows 7 Virtual PC to a 40 GB in VMware Fusion 4.x by default however any default size one can always modify virtual hardware parameters before installing an operating system.  Anyway to increase the size of the virtual hard disk is a process in two stages, the first of which is made in the settings of the Virtual Machine's hard drive.  The second part is made with a 3rd party utility or the OS itself, when it is necessary and it is applicable in the case of Windows 7.

  In Windows 7, just go to disk management and extend the Volume, he tries but a few seconds.

  Note: Before performing any disk level operations such as this should ensure that you have a clean backup * of the entire Virtual Machine.

  =========

  * It is a known fact that Time Machine is not 100% reliable backing up/restoring VMS in all circumstances/conditions.  Also back up Virtual Machines via Time Machine of disk/time intensive and wastes a lot of space for something that may be corrupted and worthless time to restore it.  At least I would exclude the Virtual Machines with virtual machines and Time Machine shutdown, not suspended and VMware Fusion closed and then manually copy the VMS to another location, preferably on a different physical hard drive.  So keep the user data stored in the virtual machine saved out of the Virtual Machine on a regular basis in order to always have a backup of the current user data.  If you need to restore a properly saved by VM is not as common at least you will have a virtual working Machine and data user to go forward with when you find out your Time Machine backup of the virtual machine fails.

• Satellite M40X-189 - replace HARD disk - what size should I go to?

  Hi, I have a SATELLITE M40X-189, I would like to replace the hard drive and would like if possible some recommendations!
  I know I need an ide/pata and I currently have a hard disk of 40 GB hitachi 5400 rpm installed. The memory is just what came installed originally, (512 MB, no upgrade).

  So what size I can up to?
  I have a lot of music/photos and video to change so must also size decent 80 GB would be enough?
  I really don't use it for anything other than that, and also the navigation on the internet. Although I often have a few programs running at the same time which causes problems... freeze, (in particular I tunes) and generally slow running.

  I'm confident on the physical replacement, and I know how to clone my old drive hard etc, but just need some info about the size and speed and if possible
  a recommendation of the manufacturer. Just worried about incompatibility really issues.

  Also, if you think I should install more memory, which size and make and model may recommend.

  Thank you in advance!

  Denise.

  Hi mate

  First he must know that this question have been posted a lot of time in the forum.
  If you want to use the search option, then you will find this thread for example:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=68287

  Is the M40X series supports the IDE controller and I think that you need a 2.5 IDE HDD.
  The old ide controllers are limited to 128 GB with 28-bit LBA
  However, you can take an 80 GB or 120 GB HARD drive and it should work fine
