dv9815nr and 320 GB hd

I have a dv9815nr with a 320 GB hd installed, but only 300 GB are recognized by Windows Vista.

Y at - there some kind of limit to the size of this model recognizes.

More I have a space for a second hd and I intend to install another drive.

Steve

This is probably caused by this: hardware manufacturers describe their records according to the kind of metrics gigabytes, where 1 GB = 1000 MB. Vista tells you what is the size of the drive is based on a different formula, where 1 GB = 1024 MB or more. With this, your 320 GB' hard drive = about 298 GB, which is more closely that makes no difference to 300. There you are then.

  • Satellite A200-1NH-AHCI/SATA300/ChipSet and the Installation of Windows 7

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba A200-1NH.
    Model: PSAE3E-03K01DDU.

    Because the hard drive has failed I replaced it with a new one.
    Model: WD3200BPVT.
    It is the ATA/300 and 320 GB.

    My goal is to install Windows 7. I started with the disks of origin comes with the laptop to install Vista and intended to upgrade Vista to Windows 7 later.

    Start with the original installation disc leads me to the first boot of Windows and then the system says "Windows cannot configure your computer's hardware. She's.

    I did some research and discovered that she could have something to do with the Chipset drivers.
    It is not possible to add drivers during the installation by using the original recovery disk. That's why I tried an install of Windows 7 and adding the AHCI ICH8M drivers during installation.

    Windows 7 installation cannot use the drive, any driver chipset I have add during installation, it does not change a thing.

    To revert to the original installation disc provided with the laptop, formatted the disk, absolute 0 partitions on it, restarted with disk, create partitions, copy of the data from windows and once again, the message:
    "Windows cannot configure the hardware in your computer.

    I have not tried to update the BIOS, did not and manual for it that does not use Windows Update the BIOS.
    I have not tried another disc. I connect this drive on my Mac and ran diagnostics, that's fine.
    I have not tried all the AHCI drivers, I found, there are hundeds, it is unclear which I should use.

    You guys give me advice?

    [EDIT]
    New version of BIOS found, cannot use it.
    To install Windows, I need to update the BIOS, to update the BIOS... I need Windows.

    > Windows 7 installation cannot use the drive, any driver chipset I have add during installation, it does not change a thing.

    To my knowledge, Windows 7 already contains the SATA/AHCI driver that's why it should not be necessary to add the SATA driver during the installation of Win 7. Had driver for Win XP or Vista installation only.

    This is why I would recommend checking another HARD drive and boot from the original disc of Microsoft Win 7.

    By the way: the European Toshiba driver page provides the Intel Storage Manager (this package contains the SATA drivers) just to Win XP and Vista so my assumption should be correct that Win 7 doesn't have the SATA driver to recognize the HARD drive during the installation procedure.

  • Satellite A205-S4777: are there problems of compatibility of the 320 HARD drive

    I am replacing my sata toshiba with a sata western digital with more memory than he.
    Can someone tell me if there are known compatibility problems.

    Toshiba 200 GB Sata Drive broke down and I am substituting a western digital 320 GB SATA

    I see that you have already improved HARD drive and 320 GB. So you could tell us if you've some HARD drive problems.
    BIOS recognizes the new HARD drive correctly?

    If you have already installed the new HARD drive and have been able to install the operating system, then I put t see serious reasons why new HARD drive shouldn't t work.

  • V of Mac OS x 10.6.8 and iPhone iOS 9.1

    Since iOS 9.1 is not compatible with the version of iTunes that I have, what is the best upgrade OSX which won't be compatible with my phone, but will work well with an iMac 2009 3.06 GHz Intel Core Duo, 500 GB HD with 4 GB of ram and 320 GB of available?

    El Capitan has many problems, I've read. I would rather download 10.7 or 10.8. Who has the least amount of compatibility issues?

    Thank you for your time.

    My suggestion is to go with El Capitan and ignore the messages of gloom & doom on this subject. The vast majority of those who have problems with El Capitan loading third-party software questionable on their Mac and which is causing their problems.

    Either way, I've had no problem on one of my Macs or have users that I help support.

    If you are still uncomfortable on El Capitan, download and install on an external drive and a test drive first.

    Of course, your first step is to backup everything just in case.

  • Memory and mSATA question x 230 - oh and a cloning issue too

    I just ordered a couple of x 230 units and kept the default 4 GB of RAM I was planning on upgrading to a SATA drive and 8 or 16 GB of RAM and 320 GB HD.

    Now, of course, I became intrigued with a drive as a boot device mSATA and keeping the 320 in place for data.

    What should I switch to the player mSATA? Windows? Windows and programs? Windows and frequently used programs?

    Frankly, it will be a machine MS Office Suite primarily with just a touch of Photoshop.

    Taken memory bloat in the future into account, I suppose a 128 GB mSATA would be quite sufficient - correct?

    I had a case of killer on 16 GB memory modules, but only one set was available. I intend to use the spare 4 GB from one machine to another, giving me a machine with 8GB and 1 vote against and 16. There will be no discernible difference using normal office software?

    I intend to create my setup on one of the 320 GB hard drives and cloning this image for the two discs mSATA. I would then activate the software on each machine. Who will I would just save the HD in the future and have a picture I can restore to one of the machines if one of the disks fail. Who is?

    Hello

    I did a clean to my mSATA SSD installation (removed the disk before that HARD; disk drive USB drive to load the recovery of factory media).  No problem, noted in this; the mSATA SSD will appear just like any other disk drive in the BIOS.

  • Bad sound quality

    I've been using Apple music on Android since last year and I also tested all the main services continuously looking for the one that fits for me. Here are my comments.

    Positive:

    1. the interface is pretty good
    2. playback of gapless albums works very well for me, a lot of competitors have problems with it, and it was important for me
    3 integration of own files works fine on my Xperia Z5, I had problems with this on Z1 Compact

    Negative:

    Sound quality. It is bad or even terrible, depending on the type of music. I don't think it's a matter of encoding. I think that Apple music flows in 256 kbps AAC (is this correct?), competitor g. MP3 320 kbps and 320 kbps OGG competitor s., I think. Thus, the difference in practice should be negligible, I think. But there is a huge difference in the listening experience.

    I use a Sony Z5 and headphones MDR-1ABT, which is quite a decent facility, and I love the sound of the G or S. The look is fantastic, bass is large and acute lovely, dynamic range is excellent. If I activate it Department HX from Sony on the phone that there is even better, it makes you go "wow". Everything just fantastic.

    Listening to the music of Apple experience is just the opposite. It looks like little in 1990s FM radio, the sound is extremely stable compared to G or S., the bass is very low, not sharp, flat. The application does not meet the parameters of its Android, there is therefore no equalizer and no HX Department. I can't listen to music of Apple for more than 15-20 minutes, when we know the sound quality of G or S, it's just not nice.

    Competitor T has the same question or 'feature' - the sound of Android settings are not respected by the app.

    So my question is, are there plans to fix it in the next release or 1.0, or should I rather build my playlists elsewhere? It will respect the sound of Android settings, like Equalizer / Clear Audio / Department HX? I like Apple interface and feel better and prefer to continue my subscription to Apple's music, but I can't stand the sound flat...

    See you soon

    Tom

    It seems very per device, Apple music on my HTC a M7 sound worse than my friends Samsung Galaxy that sounds like my iPhone.

    saying that Spotify does the same thing but google music sounds amazing...

  • Re: HDD upgrade on Satellite R630-14R

    Hello

    I post my first question and I add a few long history! I have a running Windows 8.1 R630-14R.

    How can I backup Windows 8.1 and then replace the hard drive with something like a 1 TB drive?

    Thank you!

    * Background: *.
    The laptop comes with Windows 7 and 320 GB hard drive. The HARD disk is divided into a drive C: and D:, which means I have to divide my library of photos and music on the two disks. Very irritating!

    I installed Windows 8, and it has replaced a lot of Toshiba. The laptop is incredibly fast now! I ahd to reinstall the drivers for everything, which was a bit scary, but it works brilliantly now without all the bloat.

    But, the 320 GB drive is now close to full. I swapped a hard drive before, but it's Windows 7, with recovery discs, this time I 8.1, and not of records. In addition, when overwriting 8 installed over deleted 7 Toshiba backup program.

    Also, I want to run the new drive without the split irritating, so that I can unite all of my music files, video and photo.

    Of course (!) all files will be reproduced on an external HARD drive before you start!

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop comes with Win7 preinstalled. I hope that you have created recovery disks until you have installed the own version of Win8.1. This recovery disks, you can use to install the original recovery image whenever you want, and it may be old to the new HARD disk.

    OK, you now own BONES. Generally change HARD drive or upgrade is supported and you can do it alone. Toshiba has nothing to do with your decision to use Win8.1. You can do it and install on your machine, but as you can see, you need to install all the drivers, tools and utilities one by one and it's a little complicated.

    Before you swap HARD drive you need to back up all your important data. It can be done on an external HARD drive.
    In my opinion, you have two options to have Win8.1 on the new HARD drive:
    Installation of Windows 1 / own
    2 / you can create the recovery of your version of Win8.1 image by using some third party software like Acronis true image part and use these recovery media to install the version of Win.

    What do you think of all this?

  • External USB HDD 320GB 10 error code

    Hello

    You suggested that this drive worked properly.
    One question; have you used the option to remove USB device?

    Sometimes the USB could not recognize the USB device because the device was removed without using this option.

    Maybe this will help: go to Device Manager and remove the USB ports. After restart of the operating system to reinstall the USB ports. Then check if the USB HDD works.

    Hello!

    I m not sure but maybe the laptop is overheating. What do you think?

    Try to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. That's why it of not necessary to disassemble the laptop.
    You can buy the jet of air at a computer retailer.

    You use the factory settings? I mean if you use the preinstalled Windows Vista or your own version of Windows.

  • Why I can't get any speed of Thunderbolt 2

    I just got 4 ThunderBay OWC and installed an OCZ TRION 100 480 GB SSD inside. I plugged on the iMac 27-inch Retina.

    I don't want to use RAID, I just conect bunch of SSDS via quick link to my iMac.

    Here are the specs:

    • Thunderbolt 2 speed is up to 20 GB/s
    • OCZ TRION 100 480 GB SSD read/write speed is 500 MB/s

    I expect to see around 500 MB/s performance, because the slower component is SSD, but when I run benchmarks I see on 125 MB/s write and 320 MB/s reading speed.

    Does anyone have an idea why ThunderBay 4 these poor performance?

    p.s. I contacted support, but they are useless - all they suggested is to buy the SoftRAID(4) software for $175, another...

    p.s.s. In addition, the box is very noisy. I can't keep it on the desktop.

    Substitute a b to B, and you will be closer.

    Actual speeds are 8 times slower than you think.
