• I can't install the second disk sata hard

  I have a problem when install the second disk sata hard
  I bought a new one 500 GB and I installed windows xp sp3
  and it works well I plugged in SATA 0 port
  When I want to install a second sata hard disk 320 on sata 1
  and it has an important data, windows will reboot, and do
  blue screen sometimes 'NTFS.sys"or"SCSIPORT.sys.
  and it is written "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".
  If someone help me what should I do or there is no FIX for this problem.

  in the BIOS I have regcognized both hard drivers:
  IDE pri master 500 GB
  PRI IDE slave 320
  Second master IDE-
  Second slave IDE-
  PORT SATA - 0
  SATA 1 - PORT

  I plugged the IDE 2 cd-rom

  ----------
  Specification of the device:
  Windows xp sp3
  card mother gigabyte 848P
  Intel ICH5
  Intel 8I848p775-g
  Celeron D Socket 775

  You said that the hard drives are sata but your bios recognizes them as IDE depending on your position. You might have to set your bios to operate in sata mode or enable AHCI of have recognized them as sata. Regarding the error you get, look in the system BIOS to boot from hard disk command menu. This is different from the command menu of usual starting where you choose each time you start a cd ROM or hard drive ect... The parameter that I refer to determine which hard drive of your computer starts on the first. Change to the primary master 500 GB disk > save your settings and restart your computer. Even if one is defined as main and the other slave is not serious. Some bios have the ability to choose what hard drive to boot from. In other words, it is adjustable to start first on the slave drive.

• I don't see the entire hard drive under Vista. When I try to shrink a volume, I seem to lose space.

  Original title: I see all the hard drive under Vista

  I see on the C drive properties
  "space used = 143 GB ', and"
  "494GB of free space.   But, when I try to do a third partition to install windows 7, using the disk management tool, after I click on
  shrink the volume on drive c, I don't see that: ' available shrink space: 79, 917 MB ' and I also see 'total size after shrink in MB = 573891'.  I expect all the free space 494 GB available shrink.  I'm wrong.    Why all the 494GBs are not available to reduce or at least half of it, I guess that instead of only available to shrink 79Gs!
  In addition, currently, I have three partitions.  For vista, office and other programs and data, C D like Factory Image of HP, a 11.3 GB and yesterday I made a partition for windows 7 with 48.83GBs and installed windows 7 Professional there.  Then I realize, I need more space to install office and other programs and data.  This is when I tried to shrink the c drive and encountered this problem.
  Can you please help me
  Thank you

  Hello

  you do not shrink the C: drive and then expand the E: drive back in the space that you did

  You cannot extend a drive backward

  and I gave you a link to read and use on the problems of shrinkage

  If as a result of the information on how vista disk management work does not fit what you want to do, you may need to buy 3rd party partition software

• the upgrade of the disk sata hard to new ssd sata 3 disc 1

  I have Hp m9510 running windows 7 64 bit home edition.  The motherboard is ASUS IPIBL-LB (Benicia), my drive sata hard existing 1 running in raid mode.  I want to add a new SATA of SDS 3 as a new startup disc and leave the player sata 1 existing as a backup.  Insofar as the motherboard is built for sata 1, if I install a sata pci card 3 I will then be able to obtain the transfer of higher data rates of the new ssd without causing other problems?

  If your current configuration has a single disc, then your default would be AHCI.

  RAID stands for redundant array or inexpensive disks and requires two or more physical hard disks for the implementation.

  In this case the preferred configuration would also be AHCI. It's a SATA mode. (Advanced host configuration interface) His replacement is IDE (emulation) mode

• Windows does not start (possible disk failure HARD?) - Windows 7 64 bit.

  Hello. My computer won't start. It leads to the 'Starting Windows' screen, then briefly (VERY briefly) flashes a BSOD and reboot to the Startup Repair.

  I had several errors on my laptop which has eventually lead me to the current situation. I'll start from the beginning just after the specifications of the system, maybe they are connected somehow, or they can help you in some way:

  Plug my computer is the following:

  ACER aspire 5738ZG
  -Pentium Dual-Core 2.4 Ghz
  -4 GB of RAM
  -AMD Radeon 5xxx mobility, 512 VRAM
  -Drive Hitachi 500 GB SATA 5400 RPM
  -Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

  The first problem I had was a random BSOD who would leap upward with a certain frequency. I solved by going into safe mode, Device Manager and disable a card Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport that I don't remember being there before, and that makes not sense to me (I guess some program like a VM can be installed).

  Second problem were random camera that has begun to occur just after I got rid of the BSOD. I experienced the almost all the time (just after awakening upward, while surfing the internet, games, etc.), but I noticed that it was more frequently when using a game with a kind of communication (like Skype) running program and active on the background, or loading videos. I ran a chkdsk and a memtest, and both gave me good results. These problems I was not able to solve, but I went from more games (like WoW) system-oriented to the less demanding (the binding of Isaac, Dwarf Fortress), which blocks exactly 0 produced despite being a bit much CPU.

  I thought that it would be a heat problem, last week I went instead of a boyfriend and it opens. There was neither significant accumulation of dust, and no missed connections between the motherboard and the rest of the components, and I played for a week without a bump. Something of note, however, there was a brown spot on the label on the drive and under the keyboard, which my friend called "have you you spill coffee on the thing?", but I guess it's a day he just got hot. Don't know if it's of any help.

  Finally, I woke up this morning to find out it was going really, very, very slow, and that my HDD light was on almost all the time. I booted safe mode - it seemed to have locked up on the start when starting on normal screen. And after a while of loading and showing me a light permanently on HDD, it gave me an i/o error (could not take the screenshot before it restarts). I also noticed the icon on the status bar would not connect when I woke up, I won't be too paranoid, but in my opinion, could help the network connections.

  Memtest was clean. I did a chkdsk and it started to detect errors in index (something like "Error Index $021 program xxxx", don't remember the exact number), but had to go to work before it's over. When I got home, it comes to the start of repair screen telling me that Windows was not able to automatically fix errors. The next thing I know, I can't start my computer. I tried Chkdsk from Startup Repair tool CMD prompt, and it will immediately (as in, right this second) display the contents of the drive hard (with no "bad sectors"), but will not fix anything. Moreover, when I switch on the C:\ drive, it just shows empty. Memcheck to the boot and Memtest show RAM is clean.

  So in short, the cause could be a faulty HARD drive? I'm pretty sure it must be something related to her or to the connector block, or, worse, my motherboard is upward (which I really, REALLY whish is not).

  Any help will be less appreciated.

  SATA drives have always seemed to generate more heat than the old ones IDE and your CPU can become quite hot when he's busy too.  You do not have permanent damage normally until you get to about 70, so I would be fairly optimistic about the replacement of the HD unless conditions were very extreme.  Don't forget that if you rebuild your system with a retail DVD of Windows 7, you will probably need download drivers at Acer for things like chipset, video and sound.

  Good luck.

• I don't see the button resize in Windows Photo Gallery. He disappeared.

  I want to resize pictures on my computer, but I don't see the option of resizing under file.  He simply disappeared.  Is there something to show?

  Hi NicolePutnam,
   

  The option of resizing is not given unless you are connected to Windows Live.

  The best way is to resize the image is to open Windows Photo Gallery, and then select the photos.

  Click on the button send and then asks it to resize the pictures.

  For more information, see:

  Resize photos in Windows Live Photo Gallery

  Try the steps listed in the article below:

• When you plug the hard drive, Windows Explorer says does not not and closes all applications

  When I connect my hard drive (which has more than 70 films) my watch windows Explorer does not and it closes all active applications. I can't open my disc... hard help me...

  * original title - when I connect my hard drive (which has more than 70 films) my show windows Explorer does not and it closes all active applications. I can't open my disc... help me hard... *.

  Hi Adnot

   

  Method 1:

  I suggest to connect the hard drive, then try to run the security analysis. You may need to disable all autorun feature, if you use the drive. Then, try to perform security analysis and check if you have any viruses or malware present.
  See the link below for the analysis and verification.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Method 2:

  You can also perform a clean boot and check if you can open the hard disk properly. To perform the clean boot follow step 1 mentioned in the article below, and then try again check in the clean boot state -

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  If the problem is resolved check which service non-Microsoft is the source of the problem; referring to article and following the other steps.
  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  a. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  b. on the general tab, click the Normal startup option and then click OK.

  c. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  I hope this helps.

• Explorer Windows in Windows 7, do a right-click in 1 of the 4 causes of hard drives Windows Explorer to stop

  Win 7, Windows Explorer, right click in the right hand only, Panel 1 of 4 hard drives causes Windows Explorer to stop.  The disk in question has been removed from my previous XP machine and inserted in it and a lot of files of data on it.  The other three disks were new and white discs.  All are formatted with NTFS and the disk in question worked well in my previous XP machine.  I have noticed no other problems with the drive.  Any suggestions as to what may cause this weird behavior and what I can do about it?  Thank you, gmhope

  This could be a problem caused by an incompatibility between the different version of your bios on your xp machine. BIOS not all do the same things in the same way, I was taught that a hard drive from another machine may not work in another with a different bios. The bios needs flashing on the screen when you start, bios award, a commune is an example. If you start them both and they are both the same bios is not the cause, if they're differentmaybe that's the problem . If you no longer have your xp machine then it's not a way to say average ither.

  But I suggest that you try to browse the disk using something else then windows Explorer (to avoid problem explorer).

  Open the run command on your Start menu and type cmd this will open a command prompt.

  Once opened type in the letter of the drive then an example of the colon (e :))

  Pressing on enter you will now be in this drive, and then type dir and then press ENTER, this will bring up a list of files. If these steps work for you and are able to see the content of the file on your drive is intact, but there is a problem in Explorer that prevents you to use it.

• Why can I not see the files in my Windows Explorer document library?

  I saved several PDF files in a folder in my library of documents, but I can't seen from Windows Explorer.  When I go to save another file, I can see the previous ones I saved from the browser to 'Rescue', but I don't see them anywhere else.  Why not?

  The padlock icon means that the files are not shared with others.  If you right click on the folder and choose "Share with" menu, you can remove the lock (but doing so allows anyone on your network to see your files).

  Regarding files jpeg appears not, have you tried pressing F5 to force the file to refresh?
  If this does not work, please respond and let me know.  It could be that the files are not saved to your documents, but in fact a system such as "C:\Program Files\Ancentry\" folder.

• Free disk space in the Windows Explorer status bar.

  In Windows 7, I wonder how to display disk space is free in the Windows Explorer. In XP, you could see how much space was free down in the status bar. He would say how objects and disk space that was free. How can I activate this in Windows 7?

  Return to the root that particular drive is annoying, when I should be able to see how much free space I have for any folder.

  Thank you.

  These 2 features have been removed from the latest version of windows and really help to speed up the use of every day:

  Display the amount of free space
  Display of the total size of the files in folders.

  How this two features can be added to the status bar?

• How to see the volume mounted in Windows Explorer?

  Hi all

  I am new bie to the VDDK stuff, you might find my pretty obvious question.

  I use the VXMnt API to mount the drive but I don't see that he set up in Windows Explorer.

  I am able to see the \\.\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000\. In my opinion, this device comes only after successful mounting of the volume.

  I also called DoDOSDevice (...) to map this unit as a player.
  DoDOSDevice (...) returns successfully and creates drive, but I am not able to browse it from Windows Explorer.

  Here are the calls that I do:

  VixMntApi_Init (1, 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)
  VixMntApi_OpenDisks (connection, DiskNames, numberOfDisks, VIXDISKLIB_FLAG_OPEN_READ_ONLY, & disksetHandle)

  VixMntApi_GetVolumeHandles (...)
  VixMntApi_MountVolume (...)
  VixMntApi_GetVolumeInfo (...)  -> Symboliclink used to DefineDOSDevice
  DoDeviceName (.)

  I changed \\.\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000\
  TO
  "\DEVICE\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000" - but without success
  "\\?\GLOBALROOT\\DEVICE\vstor2-mntapi10-shared-2CB22CB2007E00000000001000000" - without success.

  Please correct me where I'm wrong. If possible, share the sample code.

  Thank you

  A breakpoint will affect not to work. The program must be running to be able to serve Windows i/o requests. I have not seen the attached code, but you might need to restructure your program to continue to run as long as there are any mounted volumes.

  Thank you

• Don't see any external hard drive in Windows 8

  I have windows 8 is installed on a new laptop. When I try to connect an external hard drive, I get the sound indicating that it is connected and when I go into Device Manager it is there. However I can't see in the file Explorer when I go to my computer. I looked in the Device Manager - sound here. I tried to remove all the usb drivers and restart - no chance. Disk Manager is shown not so I can't even assign a letter. This hard disk can be seen by other laptops with windows 7. I tried to use ports different usb as well, but no luck. I am close to deleting windows 8 and put on windows 7 to see if it will help. Any other ideas before I try?

  Thank you very much for answering.

  Managed to sort by using a partitioning tool that was able to see readers and then renamed. Couldn't do that on the Disk Manager because they did not appear.

• BIOS DOES NOT SEE ANY SATA HARD DRIVES

  I recently (about three weeks) ago added a 250 GB Samsung SSD EVO 840 to my desktop HP Pavilion a6437C PC 2008.

  This SSD has been configured with a clean install of Windows XP.

  The original 500 GB HARD drive (on which I kept the original, fully functional installation of XP on one partition and all my data on another), was retained and was used primarily for the storage of data... even if I left the XP partition instead of use as a backup OS.

  Once I have everything configured, up and running, both drives worked fine in their assigned duties for at least two weeks.

  The PC is on when I left the House earlier today.  I came home and the power of the PC was turned off (I don't know if there was a power failure or other event).  When I turned on the rear PC, I got the dreaded "Disk Boot Failure" message.  Restarted, press F10 to view the BIOS, and I noticed that only two CD/DVD drives have been detected.  Ni the SSD or HARD drive have been detected.  A ran Diagnostics PC - Doctor F9 and got BIOHD-2 (no drive detected)... what I already knew.

  I've been Googling vigorously, and my guess is that, since the TWO discs are not recognized, and the problem that manifests all of a sudden, the problem lies with the SATA controller or motherboard itself.  I think that it's extremely likely that both discs would fail completely and at the same time. Can anyone suggest what I could take so I can verify or disprove this?  Also, it's an old PC so it prob'ly is not worth starting to replace the mobo... is possible to replace just the SATA controller (assuming that it is the culprit)?

  Maybe it's time to bite the bullet and get a new job.  I discovered that I can't use many of the features of my new SSD fancy, because the material a6437c and firmware doesn't support them.

  Any other suggestions would be appreciated as well.  Thanks in advance!

  Laiki, welcome to the forum.

  You did a very nice job of explaining your situation; nothing left out.

  Because the computer is older, I go to this from a different angle.  I recommend that you check the power supply (PSU) to see if it has failed, because the computer turns off for no apparent reason.  If there is no power to the system, you will not get a boot.  The power supply can cause many problems we don't necessarily attach to it.  Here's a guide to help you troubleshoot it.
