family upgrade premium does not recognize my destination disk

I'm trying to upgrade Vista Home Basic to Home Premium.  When I get to the choice between a clean installation and upgrade, upgrade has been grayed out because of "not enough space on the installation target." and something you see is not the drive.  So, I'm going for the new installation (that I don't really want to do.)  Then Setup wants me to search for the driver because he can't find it.  So I navigate to C: (which is where I want to install scraping, 'my head') go to system32 etc and it is said that no driver is, so I'm going to where the driver is supported, same thing.  Now, according to Device Manager, my hard drive is generic and show the details of the car: disk.sys as pilot.  I have recently got rid of my eisa partition and now 31 MB unallocated space before my system partition.  So I don't know if this could be the culprit.
I don't know if something is damaged or what.  Ran, an analysis of the av and it came clean.  So, I'm out.  Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If she was part of a process to uprade HP for one of their devices. Yes it's okay

  • Portege M300: Nero 7 Premium does not recognize drive - Mat * un UJDA765

    I am unable to write through Nero 7 premium on my laptop of protected m300.
    Nero 7 premium is not all recognize the dvd/cd rw burner.
    In the drop down menu drives availble to write, only the writer of images is displayed.

    Please help, if anyone knows how to fix the problem.

    I formatted the original installed OS and newly, MS XP sp2.

    It sounds everything works correctly on your laptop computer and the operating system recognizes the drive correctly. But only the Nero application makes some problems.
    Well, it's not easy to say why Nero does not recognize the drive.
    I recommend you to check the Nero Web site.
    You will find many info and tools for additional help.
    For example the infoTool can locate the fault.
    You can also try to use the Nero driver - CleanTool.exe and RegistryChecker.exe

    However, it is a 3rd party apps and I think you should ask for help using Nero.

  • My HP Pavilion dv5 Windows 7 Home Premium does NOT recognize my sd card

    I need help! My computer does not recognize my sd card, or my sd card to my micro sd card adapter. I'm starting to think is housing, given that the sd card is recognized on my cell phone.

    Hello

    Check their documentation online with the HP Support and drivers, diagnostics and ask to their
    Forums about known problems. If it's the USB adapter, it can be removed/disabled in BIOS

    and/or Device Manager and a used external is not that expensive.

  • S5-1060 casing dvd player does not recognize the Bluray disks after you restore windows 7

    I have a s5-1060 casing with a HP DH12E3LH bluray player, recently the computer was so I took out the restore disks and just do a fresh install of windows 7, it works fine now, BUT the only thing I can't understand is why my bluray in unity player not to see, recognize or play blurays now.

    The Device Manager shows the best drivers are already installed (21/06/2006 microsoft 6.1.7601.17514 driver), and he will play CD, DVD, just does not recognize a bluray disc.  I might say, we watched top of 25-30 movies on it so I 'hope' is not burned or something altogether.

    It indicates that the device is working properly in Device Manager he calls it a cdrom drive (not sure if it matters), but with a bluray in the drive, it shows under properties / status / no media in the drive.

    I'm not really sure where to start on this, drivers seem strange to be so old, is it a firmware I can update if so where can I get that info, I went to the hp site let it detect the computer saw the driver updated but nothing which was directly related to the cdrom drive.

    Thanks for any help on this just stumped at this point, as it was working before the full restoration to the computer using the recovery disks, then there must be something simple.

    Hello FTLOSM,.

    I understand that after making your computer your Blu - ray discs won't play in Windows 7. I'm you provide a document from HP support: solve the DVD and Blu-ray movie problems (Windows 7) that will guide you through the troubleshooting steps to resolve this problem. I would focus on the topic impossible to watch movies in Blu-ray 3D. I am also you provide the link to the Drivers of HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1060 desktop PC page.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Vista Home Premium does not recognize a new 500 GB HARD drive.

    I installed a WD 500 GB drive in my Emachines computer.   He appears in "Device Manager" who says it works correctly, but the OS not the poster not in 'My Computer'.  Is there a limit on the size of the disk in Vista?

    Have you partitioned/formatted it?

    If not, right click on computer > manage > storage > disk management.

    Now right click on the graph for the reader, and select new simple volume. Allocate the amount of space you want to use it, i.e. all or certain of them so that you can have more than one partition on the disk. Now do a right click and format it. Repeat the new simple volume if you decided to make several partitions.

  • Windows 2003 x 64 R2 ISO does not recognize the virtual disk

    I managed to try to install a VM guest with w2k3 x 64 R2 ISO.  All the research that I did, ISO should have the 64-bit LSI SAS driver in the HCL.  When installing, I get "the installation program can't find not all hard drives.  I tried to use the most recent vmscsi .flp 1.2.0.4 and received an error that the vmscsi.sys is 64-bit capable not.  I am convinced that the LSI driver on my w2k3 x 64 R2 ISO cd is not compatible with controller LSI SAS of ESX 4.1.  There is a new download of the Microsoft Eopen site.

    Host Dell R710

    12 GB of ram

    2 x Quad Core Intel.

    ESXi 4.1 (downloaded 12 hours ago)

    I've got 3 VMs successful running, which is 2008 x 64 (which was installed without a hitch).

    I guess the fix will be "slipstreaming" the correct 64 x driver for LSI SAS controller.  If you can point me in the right direction...  I would really appreciate it!

    Also - Another strange thing that has is passed, then the creation of the virtual machine, I went into options and noticed he returned the base for 2008 x 64 statndard OS.  I had to change it back manually and click on apply.

    As far as I know, the default controller for any edition of Windows 2003 is "LSI Logic", the "LSI Logic SAS" is the default value for Windows 2008. If you create a virtual Windows 2003 computer with the 'LSI Logic SAS' driver, you may need to add the driver during installation or inject it into the installation source. You can find the driver on http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/products_home/standard_product_ics/sas_ics/lsisas1068/index.html . You can also extract from the VMware Tools CD.

    However, the easiest way is to use the 'LSI Logic' controller when you create the virtual machine.

    any thoughts?

    What model of controller RAID do you have?  What is HCL?  Sounds like you have a software RAID controller (alias: fake RAID.)  Many software RAID controller behaves like your place of observation; ESX cannot use the players individually.
