  You must find the XP drivers for the drive and install them if the manufacturer of the drive has put at their disposal.  The backup program can run on Win XP, but if it is a Win 95 program you can't get to work.  You can try running in compatibility mode.

• Why are external USB drives not considered "Devices with removable storage" by Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium?

  Readers USB Flash RAM, CD drive USB, readers of CD - RW USB, USB DVD +-RW drives and DVD-ROM USB readers are all handled by Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium as "devices with removable storage".  To check this, look under the "Computer" entry in the menu 'start '.  However, if one uses as a USB external hard drive, that one is listed under 'hard drive '.  Programs noticed this, and some of them refuse to use it as a removable media drive, even if it is technically removable media, with its electronic and all.  It's kind of weird, because you can't remove the RAM on the USB Flash memory drives either.  Is there a way to get readers to external USB hard drive listed under "devices with removable storage"?

  USB hard drives do not seem material RMB (removable media bit) bit set.

  I tried to format my external drive scratch NTFS (it has been formatted in this way, but I have re-formatted to ensure that), and it always happens as "Local Disk".  Also, I put the "Optimize for quick removal" option on the parameters of the disk driver hard software.  Which doesn't change anything either.  It came even as "Local Disk".  Finally, I formatted the drive with the FAT32 file system (use some flash drives).  The drive still shows as "Local Disk".  In the tests described above, I still "withdrew safely" the disk first and then re-connected.

  Thanks for the help, I now know it is a bit material in the electronic control unit which controls special registration of the drive in the operating system.

• printer not shown in devices and printers - teacher of windows 7, 32 - bit

  I am running windows 7 Professional, and my parallel printer (hp laserjet 5 p) does not appear in my list of devices and printers. I can also access via my LAN.  It doesn't, however, work very well as my default printer. what I have to do to get on the list, I can change the attributes to share?

  launch printmanagement.msc, it is the tool provided by the spooler team to administer local printers

  Apparently the devices and printers will fire this printer on your computer if the parallel port is configured for the SPP.  If you right click on the computer in devices and printers, you can see the menu item printer properties there.    You can change the configuration of the BIOS of your computer.  If the parallel port is an addition on the map please let me know the manufacturer.

  But frankly printmanagement is a better solution.

• Solution: The USB floppy drive is not recognized during installation of XP of RAID

  Hello

  This Solution is for notebooks Qosmio with RAID driver during (manual installation of windows)

  I found the Solution to this problem,

  [When you install Microsoft Windows XP by using a floppy drive USB on a player who]
  requires a driver during the installation, the USB floppy drive is not recognized in all
  installation. When Windows XP searches the driver of the second time, he will not be able to see
  the floppy USB drive drive and prompts the user for the driver (RAID) again.
  The installation will never reach this point. ]

  Solution:

  This is a limitation of Microsoft, the Floppy Drive are do not appear in the file Windows 'txtsetup.sif.

  Simply change the floppy drive in another brand and avoid Usb 2.0 external Usb floppy plus old 1 Try
  Also note the back of drive sometimes they write (no bootable) avoid this also

  I personally Test this and it does not work it is "IBM Portable floppy drive" drive silver
  P/N 27L 4226, FRU P/N 05K 9283 TEAC CORPORATION MODEL NO. FD-05PUB

  The following USB floppy drives are listed in the file "txtsetup.sif" and are supported:

  Device ID = VID: 057B and PID: 0000 for external floppy USB SONY drive, Sony 09K 9835 part number

  Device ID = VID: 0644 and PID: 0000 for floppy drive to the external USB, TEAC, IBM replacement part number (FRU) 13N6752

  I have formatted my system and windows reloaded. Then, I clicked on it somewhere (do not remember on which/wher) now the systym not to see any how removable storage or don't want even to open a CD I put in...

  As you reinstalled just Vistas, you would have a very limited number of Restore Points!

  Try the system restore.

  If this does not work, and you don't know what you were doing, reinstall it again.

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

• C3086UA #A8A: Error Message on the laptop computer says driver is not available and device error

  I tried to print from my laptop, a HP Pavilion G7, and nothing happened I went in devices and saw an error message on the PC icon.  He showed me the yellow exclamation point and says driver is unavailable and driver error.  The icon of the printer showed it's OK with the green check mark. I am an older person with not much technical experience and would appreciate any help on how to solve this problem with the drivers. Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Hi @doowop47 ,

  Thank you for your query.

  I'm not sure if it is a printer problem or a problem of computer as you said that the error is on the PC icon not the icon of the printer.
   
  Unfortunately, I was unable to locate your model of laptop Pavilion G7 since the number you provided. This link should help with that.

  How can I find my model number or product number?

  Were there any recent changes?

  You did all your Windows updates?

  Have you tried to run the HP Support Assistant to help with the updates from HP.

  If it worked before you tried to do a restore to a date well known?

  You can also try a Refresh Your PC to solve problems (Windows 8)

  If it is a printer problem, and it is not an HP printer, it would be preferable for you to post in the constructor for the instance of printers.

  If it's an HP printer, please provide your exact name and model.

  Good luck!
