drive not ready _ stopped system

I have an Intel computer with windows xp pro, ver.2002, service pack 3. When I try to bring it to the top, the screen reads Media test failure, check cable. Exit Intel PXE ROM, don't drive not ready-system stopped. What has caused this? & How can I fix? I'm not for wise on computers but eager to learn, any suggestions? Furthermore, the cables are connected good.

Ensure that there is no floppy disk in the floppy drive if equipped and no CD/DVD in the CD/DVD drive but it looks like a hard drive failure.
 
When you turn on the computer you hear the spin drive upward? (remove the cover from the computer, but do not touch anything inside).  If it is not rotating until power off (hold power button down until it stops.)
 
Pull out the power cord from the computer, touch the metal casing of the computer and (assuming a type IDE disk) can detach and reattach the power cord 4 son to drive.  Also carefully Disconnect the Ribbon data cable and attach again carefully.  Make sure that the Ribbon on the motherboard connector is also firmly committed.
 
Connect the computer again and the power up.  Drive spinning up to now?  Lol bad disc.  Hope you have a backup.  Turning to the top but still the same message?  Hope you have a backup.  Take the computer with all the disks for computers and a reputable Studio programs (big box stores are not trustworthy) repair and hope that they can get down your data and rebuild the machine.

  • bug: 'drive not ready' which was already fixed bug is back

    When you try to start VMware so that you have mounted a vmdk with vdk.exe jobs appears an unnecessary error message / false.

    It is harmless but annoying as it prevents automatic start of virtual machines

    The bug was present in the earlier version but had been fixed with 6.5.0, if I remember correctly.

    Now with 7.0.0. He's back.

    Whereas from VMware seems to check all drives available - and it merges if it finds something unexpected.

    Suggestion: ignore all this. It is not really important if a vmdk is mounted everything by starting the workstation.

    See screenshot of the error message-

  • After the 24 Firefox update, Windows 7 64-bit breaks on reboot. The network in the taskbar icon is not ready (blue circle stopped).

    After 24 of Firefox update, Windows 7 breaks after the reboot. The network in the taskbar icon is not ready (blue circle on the wireless network icon). But I can't do much. I can't open the network and sharing Center (never opened). Even the Task Manager hangs when I click to show processes from all users. I have to do a system restore for a network working again. I never even launched Firefox.

    Wow... I finally have the solution. Windows updates have been applied at the same time I updated Firefox. Bluetooth driver is what broke (which is part of the Centrino wireless). I ended up installing the latest driver from Intel, Windows Update, and then update Firefox... and all is well.

    I thank very you much for all your help. Take care.

    Hello

    We have a generator function SRS DS345.

    However, if I run the srds345 to Started.vi, I get an error "location information insufficient (Hex 0xBFFF0011) or the device or resource is not present in the system" from initialize it with Options.vi srds345 sub - vi.

    The only change I did Exchange address GPIB 14 to 19, which is our function generator GPIB address. In addition, the

    Your help in resolving this issue is appreciated. Thank you.

    Have you installed the driver from LabVIEW or copied directly from inst.lib?

    The first is easier, and you don't have to restart LV more...

    Error in a not filled gpib address points. I have not checked if this driver has a resource name visa or a string of gpib address old but in the first case, try the little triangle on the right at the slect address instead of by hand.

    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?

    In general, when the desktop software uses Flash Player, it's because they're incorporating an Internet Explorer window in the application.  If you do not have Flash Player for Internet Explorer (aka. the ActiveX Flash Player) installed, then the desktop app is not going to work.

    Then, launch Internet Explorer

    Go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

    Follow the prompts and then relaunch the application after you have completed the installation in Internet Explorer.  I hope this sorts for you.
