fsutil: bytes per physical sector: < not supported >

For all my discs, regardless of the brand or the connection is USB or ATA, fsutil returns bytes per physical sector:

This is a problem when I want to create a mirror for Raid1 disk: I get an error because my two disks have a different physical sector size.

I use Windows 7 pro 64-bit SP1, I checked that KB982018 , which is supposed to solve this problem has been installed, my disk drivers are up to date.

Thanks for your help!

  • Does anyone know how to change windows to recognize the disks with 520 bytes per sector? Or one knows if Windows 7 will recognize no 512 bytes per sector drives? Reader vendors will move to larger areas in the future.

    Windows does not recognize disks that are not 512 bytes per sector. Put readers at the point as unknown and I can't access it through the operating system. Is there something I can change to get Windows to recognize the disks that are not 512 bytes per sector?

    Hello MetalRain,

    Thank you for your message.  Are you able to see the disks in disk management?  Try the following:
    Click 'Start' > right click on 'My computer' > select 'manage '.
    Click on "disk management".
    On the right, you see your drive?  If so, you can right click and it assign a drive letter.
    Now you should be able to close this window and you can format your drive to NTFS, you can specify to change the bytes per sector 512 if you wish as seen HERE.
    After assigning a drive letter, follow the steps below:
    Click "Start" > click "Run" > type cmd in the text field and press "Enter."
    In the command prompt, type format c:/FS: NTFS / a: 512 and press "Enter."
    Please let us know if it did or did not help to solve your problem.

  • HARD drive external - 4096 bytes of the sector support size / change

    We have a number of external hard drives Toshiba, which are almost redundant.
    The sector size, 4096 bytes, is not supported by Windows 2008 Server R2, Windows 7 or less.
    Only in 2012 Server and Windows 8.

    When I say not taken in charge, I want to say not supported for backup.
    The item "System State" backup will not work with this type of disc is connected to the system.

    My question is this:

    Is there a way to get around this?

    Western Digital provides a tool to format drives with a sector size different Windows 7 / 2008 R2 recognizes and allows a backup of the system successfully State. The tool is WD Quick Format Tool. Is there an equivalent of Toshiba?

    Thank you

    Well, since Vista (SP2), the size of sector 4 k is OS supported, but initially, Windows XP as well as Vista (SP1) taken in charge only size of 512 byte sector.

    It seems that in the past provided Toshiba a tool called alignment tool from Toshiba to Advanced Format hard drives (HDD) but this isn t available more as mentioned on this page

  • Selected physical channel DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan OR-USB-9237 VB6 does not support the type of action required

    I have a VB6 program with code that correctly reads the analog inputs of a NOR-USB-6008.

    I tried to re - use the code in a module of extensometer OR-USB-9237, but at the stage of DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan, I get the following error:

    "Measurements: physical channel selected does not support the type of measure required by the virtual channel you create."

    Create a channel to a type of measure that is supported by the physical channel, or select a physical channel that supports the type of measure. »

    Should I call one function other than DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan?

    If so, what is it, or where can I find the reference for these functions?

    Or - if it of the right function, should I pass different arguments?  Currently, I'll call you:

    DAQmxErrChk DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChan(taskHandle, "Dev1/ai1", "", DAQmx_Val_Cfg_Default,-10, 10, DAQmx_Val_VoltageUnits1_Volts, "")

    Thanks in advance for your help

    -Alas

    I thought she 372251a. PDF

    Firstly, the correct function is DAQmxCreateAIVoltageChanWithExcit

    Second, you can't just ask for a sample single channel - ask for 2 samples instead.

  • Physical channel selected does not support the type of output required by virtual channel

    I use a box USB-6251.  Inside of MAX, I can set the device to Dev1 / ao1 sine wave generation and if he have output a sine wave.  When I use DAQmx DAQmxCreateAOFuncGenChan function I get error: selected physical channel does not support the type of output required by virtual channel.  The pilot DAQmx does FuncGen on the box USB-6251 or MAX out a set of tensions?

    Hi Paul,.

    Welcome to the Forums EITHER!  The DAQmxCreateAOFuncGenChan is supported only on products Elvis II.  For other devices, including the 6251, you must use the ordinary DAQmxCreateAOVoltageChan and create your own data buffer.  I would recommend looking in the following example:

    Start > all programs > National Instruments > NOR-DAQ > textual Code > ANSI C examples...

    Analog on > generate voltage > Cont Gen Volt Wfm - Int Clk

    In MAX the Sinewave output is used as a test signal - in this case MAX is a period of the wave sine values to write to the buffer and generate these data.  Again, you can produce a sine wave (or any other function) using the AOVoltageChan, but the AOFunctionGenChan is used only with Elvis II.  Just generate data points for the sine wave that will produce DAQ hardware.

  • Windows cannot be installed on this physical drive of this computer may not support the start-up this drive make sure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's bios menu

    Hello world

    I know, there are several other threads on this topic, but I couldn't find a working solution. I currently have no OS on my DELL XPS 17 L702X.

    I would be very grateful if you could help me

    Hello

    I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the computer to change the BIOS settings and check if it is has updated the BIOS.

    Important: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Let us know the results. We will be happy to help you further.

  • Update ESXi3.5U3 to ESXi4 by vSphere update Utility error: host not supported - unhandled setting in startup disk page

    When I try to upgrade my ESXi3.5 Server (which is Xeon E5310 on ASUS DSBV/SAS box with 5 SATA drive on the SAS controller unRAID) to ESXi4

    I got error: unsupported Host - not support layout of startup disk

    What can I do now? Is this bug or just, do not boot from the local disk support?

    Since the fdisk-l to output provided, its clear that the 2nd partition is missing. The 2nd parition in ESXi Installable is the partition scratch (FAT16 file system), which is by default to 4 GB. During the upgrade the parition is resized to scrape (about 150 MB of space is used 4 GB) to extend the bootbanks of 49 MB to 256 MB.

    I don't know the exact reason why the partition scratch missing here since it is generally created during the default installation. One possibility could be that there was a parition scratch already available on a secondary drive during installation and setup it has not created on the primary drive.

    A standard partition for ESXi 3.5 with partition table scratch would look something like the following...

    Disk/dev/disk / vmhba1:0:0:0: 8589 MB, 8589934592 bytes

  • Tecra M3 Geforce 6200 driver - says hardware is not supported

    Hello

    I tried to update the Geforce 6200 with Forceware 91,47 of the site of Nvidia driver, but he said that the material was not supported. What are the latest Nvidia drivers, that I can use for the chipset? I want to use the OpenGL 2.0 features, but the driver on the Toshiba site does support OpenGL 1.5 (I think). I have a Tecra M3.

    Also if I added more RAM, it would allow me to increase the amount of RAM used by the card?

    Hello

    As far as I know, this camera has no shared memory and RAM cannot be used to go to the top performance of the graphics card.

    Problem of driver updates, is that on most units, it is not possible to do a simple reason because of physical protection. If the graphics card with the new driver, is forced to higher limit, the result can be damage or overheating with suddenly switch off.

    Your device is quite old and, in my opinion, you shouldn't force them to work at the limit.

    Good bye

  • NI-VISA 5.3 driver Wizard does not support USB 3.0 devices

    Hi all

    It seems that NI-VISA 5.3 does not support USB 3.0 devices. When I try to use the driver Wizard to create a driver for a USB 3.0 device, I get the error "ERROR-1073807178: device descriptor error - value not valid bMaxPacketSize0 (must be set to 8, 16, 32, or 64 bytes). I noticed that the unit has been giving wMaxPacketSize0 of 512 (2 ^ 9). But the driver Wizard treats the value 9. So I think that Assistant driver does not support USB 3.0 devices. If someone could confirm this?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Jackie

    Hello Jackie,.

    Unfortunately, USB 3.0 is not officially supported in VISA 5.3 when you use VISA Driver Wizard.

    A non-official solution is to work around the "information in the descriptor' by selecting 'Other' in the list of devices. You will need to manually enter the 'USB manufacturer ID (vendor ID)' and 'type USB (Product ID) Code. You will then need to find your driver in Windows Device Manager, right click and select "update driver software". This, however, is not a workaround solution guaranteed as NI-VISA 5.3 is not officially compatible USB 3.0.

  • Pavilion 23-b244 AiO: the system recovery media does not support this computer

    Hey all,.

    I had a power outage (1 TB) HD material on me about a week ago and replaced by a (500 GB) SSD, not purchased from HP.  I then ordered the recovery disc from HP for this particular serial number.  Whenever I boot on the recovery discs, I get "this computer does not support the system recovery media. You are not able to restore the system with the media. "The Minsize argument in the instructions to build on the DVD file provides a minimum of 140 GB, so I don't think I have a new smaller drive system is the question.

    Last month I have updated the firmware to v80.08, and in the bios "product name", 'SKU number', 'serial number of the chassis' fields are all empty.  In "System ID", everythign is empty except UUID and family name.

    I think that's why I'm not able to boot to recovery discs?

    Any help would be appreciated, I have use this computer for quickbooks and have bee unable to do accounting for a week and a half.

    Figured it out! On my Pavilion, you press Ctrl + A in the bios then click on 'System IDs'. Then I was able to type in the ID to build my recovery and support the byte to feature on the sticker under my machine. F10 to save then the recovery media recognized the computer properly and booted up!

  • Drive not supported PS6100

    Hi all

    I'm looking to see if there are SCENARIOS for the error message dreaded "drive not supported" other than a player who does not EQL firmware on it.  Initially, we ordered accidentally a W347K to replace a failed drive of 600GO, which are not EQL brand, is so not surprising that we have seen the message disc not supported.  Then, we ordered a drive of one-third of the brand EQL and installed it. The label looks like a dell/EQL/enterprise storage with p/n 02R3X label, and he turns and looks like it should work fine, but we get the same error of unsupported disc.  DOA drive?  Firmware incompatibility?  No matter what else it could be?  I think somehow, the seller has replaced the Equallogic firmware, or printed their own label and slapped on top of a generic label of seagate.  I don't have a way to physically watch the disk myself so I paint no doubt some unfair conclusions.

    Thank you

    I've been double check something.  It is possible that a failed drive may show as not supported.

    There is something you can try if you can restart the table.   Remove the drive and wait two minutes.  Then restart the table.  This will failover to the other controller.  Insert the disc again and see if it shows up.  If it still comes up not supported, I would ask your salesman for another drive.

    Kind regards

  • XPS 13 9350, "plugged in, does not support".

    New machine, the first time I started it up I got this warning message:

    The attention! Power adapter AC power and the type cannot be determined. The battery may not charge. The system will adjust the performance to match the power available.
    Note: This warning can be disabled in the BIOS Setup.

    I don't worry for a couple of days, but when I plugged in the power adapter, the battery status said "battery level of 48% (plugged in, does not support).

    In the settings of the BIOS under General battery information, he showed "AC adapter / CC = unknown" under System Logs, events of the BIOS, he showed: DateTime "alert!" Unknown sector adapter, can affect performance. »

    I clicked on the 'Diagnostic' button on the start page alert and Dell SupportAssist under "Battery and AC adapter" report shows "current adapter: 1 watt adapter, top: n/a, low: n/a.

    The little blue light on the plug of the adapter lights up.

    Many people have encountered similar problems with Dell laptops, but there only seems to be as well as workarounds and very few solutions. I have a very short time period in which to return the machine, and I'm not at all a type of material, so I'm not opening upward.
