  Hello

  I use X-NET-PCI8512, OS: Windows 7, C++ (middle of the QT interval).

  I'm pooling of card data (StreamIn member function) to ~ 100 Hz. card reading time (ReadStatus) to ~ 100 Hz.

  After about 40 min (depends on the amount of data in) I get this error:

  (Hex 0xBFF630B2) The NOR-XNET driver cannot communicate with the device. Solution: Make sure that the device was not removed from the computer.

  What are the causes of this error?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello aviadCielo,

  When you get this error, what does do to make it work again? If you restart your program, start all this work?

  Secondly, what version of NOR-XNET do you use? It's maybe a software problem that could be resolved by upgrading to NOR-XNET 1.6.

  Finally, can you reproduce this problem with a simple program? If so, you can join the program you use?

  I'm sorry while shouting did not mean too.  Well I use to be able to watch videos and burn and watch TV on internet, now it used to me let burn, and it won't let me watch my DVDs on the pc and internet tv stops constantly.  I had a problem about six months ago, and the computor guy deleted all my files that he said so he could install a new thank you windows

  I know you didn't want to scream... Not to be too critical, but it really looks like you need a new 'computer' man as it is inexcusable to erase data files when you install a new operating system, especially if it does not create a backup disk or files.   Having to reinstall programs is normal, but the data must never be lost.
   
  You apparently have different issues that might be related to malicious software and drivers a bad or hardware problems for your computer.  I recommend that you take a small reputation of the computer "mom & pop" type computer store to have your repairs.  Big box stores, such as Staples, Best Buy, etc. are NOT reputable in computer repair.  Take installation discs you have for the computer, and a good description of what is happening.

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)

• I copied the photo library on external drive, and that one photo now shows despite the file being 70 GB.

  I had a library in iPhoto on an external HARD drive, and it worked. This is a disc plu so I decided to replace it with a new one that doesn't take much space on my desk. I copied the library through an external DRIVE to another drive, and it seemed to work. However, it now shows that a single photo despite being listed in the file manager as containing more than 70 GB.

  I explored a bit further in the file using finder and preview and found many files sorted by date. The photos seem to be all there, but they appear in iPhoto when I switched to this library. Always only one picture appears.

  I decided to convert the copied pictures from iPhoto library and it took a lot of time to convert, but the converted library always display just a single photo in Photos when I switch to this library.

  I could import all of them individually, but it's a big enough job, if there is a way to get libraries to work correctly.

  Any suggestions?

  We need the details - what format is the drive? How is it connected? It serves a TM backup Volume? How you copied the library itself? The library still works fine on the old drive? anything else you can tell us which could help a total strange who don't see you help?

  Thank you very much.  I was able to do according to your instructions. It's so complicated for a non-techie; no doubt that I would have never found without your help.

  Whenever I have uninstall or install anything, I always restart. Just a habit that I took some time ago.

• In disk management, it shows only a single hard drive and it's C, but it lists the size than what my old drive was that I took out

  I got a new hard drive in my computer and the old a subscribed.  I then had to reinstall Windows XP Pro.  In disk management, it shows only a single hard drive and it's C, but it lists the size than what my old drive was that I took out.  The new shows of unallocated hard disk without a drive letter and has a black bar above it. How do I show my new hard drive that is 1 TB instead of one that was a 250 GB is not yet in my computer.

  Hi Reta,

  ·         The drive appears like 250 GB even if it's a terabyte?

  ·         Is the remaining 750Go showing as unallocated disk space?

  If this is the case, you can refer to this article on how to use disk management in Windows XP:

  How to use disk management to configure dynamic disks in Windows XP

  You can follow the directions to extend a Simple Volume so that your 250 GB turns into a single terabyte.

• Drive setup that went wrong

  Just got a second hand optiplex 980 i3, fitted with a single hard drive installed win 7 everything works fine, but just came to mount a second drive and have just realized l had not checked the parameters of raid bios when l first installation of windows, and the raid has been set to raid1. When I installed the second drive, he just trying to rebuild the mirror. If I disable this disk is not booting from raid can I recover what I don't want a raid configuration.

  Remove the RAID before disconnecting the 2nd disc.  If you log out after completing the mirror, you will have 2 drives in RAID, and the two must have their codes of rewritten starting.  The other problem you might have is stated in my first post.  At least some Dell machines insist on having 2 eligible disks attached so that the CTRL-i option to be enabled.  If you are looking for the CTRL-i option with a single installed drive, you will never see because is not still pop up.

  Hi Baldwin16, Matt

  Welcome to the community of Microsoft and thanks for posting the question.

  1. who is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

  2. do you use AVG products?

  3. do you have problems regarding the application Vprotection?

  Vprotection is a part of AVG Safe Search Toolbar; Some malware will be a miscarriage as vprot.exe.

  If you have not installed or there is more than one instance running it may be something else. You can check if it is authentic, by locating the file, view the digital signatures tab and checking the signer are AVG Technologies.

  If you have installed the AVG program, you don't have to worry about the processes running on the computer. If you need help with the application, I suggest you to contact AVG support.
