• Satellite M200 Vista shows that the HARD drive is full of 98%

  This problem showed about 2 months ago the system started running slowly and after a bit of research, I went to computer and found he showed that the HARD drive was full of 98%. Then I went and disabled the feature of shadow copy that reached about 3 Gig. After that, the performance was still hurt, so I decided to do a system restore. All reformatted once was good again until a week ago, and the same problem came back once again.

  This laptop is running Vista Home Premium SP1, 120 Gig drive HARD, Kaspersky Anti-virus, it has very limited connection to the Net, as it is mainly used to store and transfer music on an Ipod (20 GB of music).

  Any thoughts? Maybe a hardware failure?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hardware failure is very likely, since you are clearly able to access your hard disk without problem.
  Looks like you are using software that could be gradually fill the hard drive with data, such as a log file, it is difficult to say.
  With the erosion of the space, you might want to periodically check each folder in drive C (right click, properties) and see how it changes for each new session.

  Also clean the temporary files would help such as for:

  "c:\temp".
  "c:\windows\temp".
  "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp.
  erase internet files of Internet Explorer cache / temporary
  deactivation and reactivation then "System Restore" (do this only if you are satisfied with Vista is running stable)

• How can I transfer a DVD to a TV show on my hard drive so I can send by e-mail?

  I have a DVD of a television show and you want to send content to a person. How can I do this?

  May depend on what e-mail program you use as to whether the mail link to send to is available

  In basic terms, you copy the entire dvd through Explorer to a temporary location, then attach this file to the email.

  But if the dvd is DRM locked the other party isn't able to play.

  Then of course, theres the file size of attachment to consider and if yours or the recipients mail provider has size limitations

  Hi Rohit,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum. I understand that your USB drive is having problems of compatibility with your computer, but I would like to learn more about the issue in order to provide you with better assistance.

  4. Your USB key works on other computers or have you tried to connect to different USB ports on this computer?
  5. Is the pen drive getting detected in the case or you are able to access the drive folder in the window of the computer ?

  The question may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged, or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows. This can also occur if your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I would suggest trying the following steps and check if the problem persists.

  2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
  3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
  4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.

  Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

  If the problem persists, go to method 3.

  Method 3:

  This method will install the latest drivers from device to your USB device.

• Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware of this computer Installation error on the new hard drive

  Okay so if please bear with me and be patient.  I'm not tech savvy.  I know enough to be able to remove an old hard drive and put another one, but when there are errors, I don't know what to do.

  Here's the situation.

  I have a Dell Studio XPS with Windows 7 installed.  I started having these notifications that my hard drive could be a failure.  I tried everything that I could find to fix it without having to buy a new HARD drive without success.  The current system has a 1 TB Seagate hard drive.  I installed a memory additional bar thingie right after that I got the computer about 4 years ago.  (If someone tells me how to find the properties of real system, I post them if necessary).  Anyway, I bought a new WD 1 TB black disk hard to install before my old dies and loses all my photos and documents, etc...

  I took the old drive yesterday and installed the new hard drive.  I put back the case and turned on the machine.  I put in my Windows 7 installation disc.  He began installing Windows 7... It's completely past the initial screen where it says it to load it and the other... I had accepted the license agreement, but did not have to make a profile and do the work and the reader.  I hope all this makes sense.  Then it pops up this message "installing Windows could not set up Windows on hardware on this computer."  I couldn't figure out what to do from there.  I got the new drive and put the old one back to and here I am. I tried to find solutions to this problem, but I either don't can't make heads or tails out of the responses on the internet or the solution is not exactly my problem.

  Please help if you can!  And if you have any suggestions, please dumb them down so I can understand what to do.  I CAN do if loaded, you just have to not talk too irritable.  Laughing out loud

  Thank you in advance!

  Maybe not...

  The Windows installation is not happy about something, and since it gets at least started which is a good thing, but your installation problem can not really be with Windows - perhaps something about Dell hardware or your 1 TB HARD drive.

  I looked at your system and found this article that you can read to see if it sounds like your original question:

  Windows Setup could not configure Windows on hardware on this computer.

  http://www.Dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN293812/en

  Since Dell has written an article for help on this subject, it means they've met enough times to take the time to compose the article and put it on their WWW site (but, they say, it is a possible resolution).

  Could you take the issue in the Dell online community where experts hang out (especially your amber light).

  Another good place for support is www.bleepingcomputer.com where there is a similar topic as your question (except Vista) on a Dell and a new disk of 1 TB (also a Seagate) and Dell ideas did not work, but someone else has found a way to fix it:

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/453378/installation-fails-to-complete-on-new-HDD/

  The bleepingcomputer for your error message search reveals other areas and people who have got things to work in different ways, then it is perhaps another place to look for ideas.

  If the installation still fails it would not hurt to do the BIOS setting and see if things are getting longer, and since you are going to write the current settings before proceeding with the adjustment you can always cancel the adjustment if things get worse.

• iSCSI LUN DS shows as blank hard drive

  I had an iSCSI directory store with a single VM on it.  The ESX 3.5i server no longer recognizes the LUN as a directory store.  When I click on 'Add a storage' can see the LUN but reports that "the hard drive is empty.

  I have not conducted through the add storage wizard because I don't want to lose the virtual machine that resides on the subject.

  Does anyone know of a method that will allow me to add that LUN as a DS so I can recover the data?

  If you have a backup and you want to try, you can go through the steps outlined in 'Recovering a lost on a VMFS volume partition table' http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1002281

  Make sure that you have read the warning, however.

  Good luck.

• Why DVD players does not work? Indeed, DVD player works ONLY playback,... but doesn't work NOT to the write/burn any DVD/Sony and Memorex, etc..

  Hello:

  DVD players, both came with the PC and MSI DVD - Rom I bought through the Internet works ONLY for playback of CD - r and DVD - r, but the two do NOT write/burn brand new DVD and CD - R, popping up in the middle of the screen,... Please insert the blank in the E floppy when I actually inserted in the DVD drive.

  I have uninstall and rebooted the PC, in the hope that readers DVD works OK,... but nothing helps.

  Wonder if the registry damaged for DVD player, or what other problems causing this problem?

  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Have you checked if the CD/DVD drive you purchased is a recordable disc? If this is the case, there should be an indication (e.g., CD-RW/DVD-RW). You can also check for the indication Device Manager.

  If you have confirmed that it is indeed able to write on the discs, then try to activate the IMAPI. To do this please see the instructions below.

  1. click on start

  2. click on run

  3 type "services.msc" (without the quotes)

  4. in the window that opens, you select IMAPI

  5. right-click on it and select "Properties".

  6 start the services.
