• CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows

  Original title: another question about the DVD drive is not detected in Windows 7

  I have the same problem that many others have described here on the DVDR drive not detected after installing Windows 7. I still have not solved this issue. But I have another similar problem. The system will not recognize an external USB DVDR drive connected to a USB port. In essence, I have no access to the internal drive (in a Dell Inspiron 1545) or the external hard drive. Without access to a DVD player I can't even uninstall Windows 7, and I can not install or save anything else without a drive. I'm at my wits end. If anyone can help I will shower you with praise.

• Your CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs

  I tried to apply the patch, MicrosoftFixit.dvd.Run.exe. He could not say "NET Framework initialization error. Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application. If this is related to the framework version number .net (such as published in some issues) then Microsft back compatible fix to the problem. It should give a step-by-step procedure to solve these 2 problems. Microsft say DVD problem was know question and it was fixed in XP SP2. I installed Windows XP with SP2 and now updated to update to SP3. But the problem persists. Any help from anyone?

  shanglur,

  If you have installed all Windows updates, there's no upper/lower filters to delete, you can try...

  But it's almost the same thing as above. I suspect that your cd/dvd drive may have failed.

• reloading the files of the external hard drive to the new computer laptop

  I'm trying to reloaded files etc. from an external hard drive to my laptop. I took the files of my old office that was on is way out, so just in case I lost them all I copied them. I tried setting up my external hard drive and transfer just a couple of files just to see if it would work. I sent them to my desktop from my laptop and they also went to my documents, but once the hard drive is disconnected files will not open. I do not know what I'm dong wrong as I am not very computor spirit, so that the answers would be useful in silly English thank you. Sorry to be so long-winded.

  Hello @shedeval

  I understand that you have copied your files on an external drive from your old computer.

  You tried to copy the files to the new computer, but when you disconnect the external hard drive the files are no longer accessible.

  I think that you have created or copied a shortcut to the new computer and not the actual files.  When you're logged out outside the new computer had more disk access to open files.

  I would like to redo the copy and when you finished externally, log out and then try again.

  Good luck!

• Installing old drive in the new computer

  I'm about to buy a computer refurbished one on Ebay. The computer comes with a hard disk of 40 GB and installed Windows XP Pro. The hard drive from my old computer which is dead is 250 GB and also has top XP Pro. I prefer to use my old drive from my old computer in that new / opportunity that I buy. I can do that or did I meet licensing issues. I have the XP install disk that I used to install it on my old computer.

  Hello

  Since this will be a different hardware on the new computer, you may experience problems of license.

  In this case, you may need to reinstall the operating system on the new computer with the old hard drive.

  I suggest that you back up all data on the old hard drive prior to installation. To do this, connect it as a secondary hard drive to back up data. Later, you can disconnect the new hard drive (40 GB), this (250 GB) primary and install Windows XP.

• Possible to recover files on an old hard drive using the new computer?

  Hi, my old computer CPU fried making UN usable. I just bought a custom P6150t of hp and I was wondering if there is some way I can install the old Hard drive in the computer I just bought. I really want to stay away from the team of geek or something that's going to cost me a lot of money. Any suggestions?

  It is certainly possible, in fact, it should be fairly simple how experienced you are with computers. Hand, you have a few options I can think. Was of course since I am not aware of what kind of hard drive in your old computer, you will probably need to buy an additional cable\cord\connector to connect to the motherboard, and if it is an old IDE drive, you can buy an IDE to SATA as one of them.

  This is all assuming you want to keep the hard drive installed on the PC. And although it may sound intimidating or difficult to do, it's really not! If you can put some screws with a screwdriver, you will be able to install the old drive if your new PC. Simply enter the model number of your PC to the HP drivers & support web page or click on the following link: upgrade and repair, (this is for the model number you provided) read the first couple pages & then proceed to PDF page #17. Read & review the instructions once in a relationship, print out the instructions if necessary, collect tools (flat head screwdriver & anti-static bracelet), then just follow instructions & take your time paying attention to the illustrations. It is frankly less work & easier than typing all of this out.

  Either way, you can easily connect to your computer must use one of these: existingUSB-adapters IDE that allows you to directly access a device of ATA/ATAPI IDE interface. Everything is a matter of preference and what you are comfortable doing.  To find these items I already mentioned, just google 'em and either find a computer store nearby and investigate with them or order from a decent distributor in your country for the best prices. Overall, there are many more options that I've listed here, but they are all relatively will do the same thing; that is the type of player, you must convert a USB cord. Hope this helps! Good luck!! -tmt-

• I have blown my motherboard on an old computer and hooked up my old hard drive to the new computer and want to transfer my favorites on the new drive but cannot find where they are located on the old drive - any help?

  My motherboard went bad on my old computer, but the hard drive was OK. I bought a new computer and plugged my old hard drive to it via a usb adapter. I would like to import or copy my favorites from the old hard drive to my new, but I can't find where they are. I was unable to determine the search for articles on the web. Be advised that my old hard drive is basically nothing more than a place of storage for files at this point. My old operating system is windows XP, and my new system is Windows Home Premium.

  Start Windows Explorer and locate the data that you want to transfer, select it and press on and hold down the CTRL key while tapping the c. key on the new hard drive and locate where you want to place the data and press Ctrl + V to paste the data.
   
  It won't work for data, it won't copy programs or settings of the program as they must be made using the Setup routine.

• Installation of Windows OEM 7.1 of the drive on the new computer

  I bought a new HP Envy of Costco 750qe with operation system Windows 10 because it came with a graphics card from Nvidia with 4 GB of Ram, nice Intel core i7 and 24 GB DDR 3 Ram. My first computer was a KayPro 10 CPM and over the past 15 years, I had a computer shop build me a new computer in the same case during this period. There has never been a problem with the installation of my OEM version of the current operating system... 98, XP, skipped VISTA and 7.1 that is clean and stable through time, using the phone to turn back on, to make my new Tech. I learned that this may have changed.

  By elsewhere, for someone who has used a computer for years, push us to go on the computers that try to mimic the smart phones are a pain. This will be my last measure as I will be 70 in August. I have set up with the weird changes in Windows 10 since 15 December and as a graphics person working with the Photo app is horrible. I managed to reinstall your old Windows thanks to the useful online photo viewer: www.intowindows.com but I draw the line at having to go in Power Shell myself when a clean reinstall of the 7.1 will serve for my purposes, even if I have to reinstall all my programs.

  I have my drive and I'm ready to back everything up and the Tech comes to reinstall. Can I legally do or should I buy another 7.1? I pulled the computer store because they have changed hands and did weird things with my custom built Computer Graphics, also Pro 7.0 on disk, updated to 7.1 online and which will require a total rebuild in a new business with better ventilation and a SSD using a disc. So my question also applies to the other my computer as well.

  Thanks, Sharon

  Photo Viewer, that's all you need, then you can easily reinstall.

  You cannot use an OEM disc, if it is already in use or has been used, you must purchase a new license. You must also make sure that the computer is compatible with Windows 7. Also back up your Windows 10 computer before decommissioning:
