• Hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS - Equium A60

  Hi hope someone can help. I have a Toshiba Equium EA60-173 and the hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS. When I remove the hard drive and put it in another laptop it is detected fine. I also tried another hard drive in the Toshiba and that does not work either. So I suspect the IDE controller has disappeared, but can I do to confirm this? I wish there was an option in the BIOS to force detection. I updated the BIOS but still the same.

  This laptop is only just out of warranty, so if it is the controller would I need to replace the motherboard? Are there other options at my disposal?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Neil,

  Unless there is some physical\problem with the cable/connector hard drive, then it is most likely that you will have a new mainboard for your laptop. I suggest you to contact an authorized service partner and ask them to check your laptop and give you an estimate of the cost of the repair. Then you can try to shop for less expensive alternatives.

  Kind regards

• HARD drive is not recognized on the Satellite 2800 200

  Hello

  First of all, I'm Dutch so I hope that I do not have too many mistakes in my English writing.

  I bought a 2800-200 Satellite at a friend's House. This laptop has a problem.
  When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press a key when readya?.

  My bios is ACPI BIOS version 1.80
  In Pheripheral in Bios it says disc hard = not used Mode.

  On page two discs i/o: HARD drive: no drive.

  I tried two hard drives and the two were not working and not recognized in the BIOS.
  I have no CD of restoration.

  My questions:

  What kind of central computer has this laptop?
  Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
  What can I do to fix this?
  How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?

  My hard drive is MK2023GAS and is not broken. There is nothing on this HARD drive.
  But also with the disk hard 10 GB of origin, I had the same problem.

  I hope you can help me and once again I apologize for my English.

  Hello

  I'll try to help you my friend.

  > When it is started is says "insert the disk in the drive system. Press any key when ready
  This message appeared on my laptop after the HARD disk is dead.
  I had to replace the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

  I guess that it of the same problem with your laptop. The HARD drive is not present or not recognized, and you will need to install a compatible HDD for the operation of the OS.

  I have google a bit and discovered that this laptop comes with the 10 GB HARD MK1016GAP of Toshiba drive. It supports the interface ATA-2/ATA-3/ATA-4/ATA-5.

  Please note that many BIOS have a limit of size of HARD drive. This means that not all HARD drive sizes are supported! I assume a 20 GB should be compatible, but this is just my own opinion
  > How can I change my BIOS so that the HARD drive is recognized?
  The BIOS can be modified outside the update (check page driver Toshiba-> Archive-> archive of Satellite).
  But vary important is that you use a compatible HARD drive.

  > Can someone help me with the recovery CD?
  Don t know if you will be able to order this CD at the service provider allowed in your country, because the laptop is really an oldie. But you should ask the guys.
  What you is to install the OS from the Microsoft CD-ROM and then could install drivers needed.

• IomegaWare Zip 100 drive unit not recognized by the computer of Windows 8

  Help, please. I bought a zip 100 Iomega drive to retrieve ONLY data (files/photos) from a pile of old zip disks. My laptop Lenovo (windows 8) nor my HP desktop computer (windows 7) recognize the zip drive external usb.  Are there compatible drivers anywhere? I spent hours online, trying to check or correct the incompatibility issues, but also obsolete driver problems without success. The disc provided for installing out-of-date drivers. I am not a technician. Any help would be useful. I have an external hard drive functional, functional. I just want to get the data off the old 100 iomega zip disks.  I don't plan to do anything else with the zips or zip drive. And Yes, I should have done this earlier, but like many busy people know, sometimes time can get the better of you. The loss of these data would at best heartbroken as the discs containing pictures and original, irreplaceable data.

  You may be able to install a driver that is inherited in compatibility mode.  Get the latest driver that has HP and install it like this compatibility mode

  To install in compatibility mode do the following:

• Hitachi Touro Desk pro HARD drive does not recognize on the computer of Windows 8.

  Original title: Windows 8 - Hitachi Touro Pro support

  I have a Hitachi Touro Desk pro HARD drive that no longer works since I've upgraded to windows 8 last week. If I leave it connected during startup, windows will not start and if I connect it once started, it does not appear in the Solution Explorer, even if you can hear the disc turns away.

  The HARD drive works on all other computers and operating system, not just windows 8.

  When Microsoft will release a patch for this problem? I really don't want to have to re - install windows 7 so that I can access my files again.

  I have installed Windows 10 Technical Preview version 10049 and connected my drive from 750 GB Hitachi touro in USB 3.0 and it WORKS!

  I can't believe that after several years of frustration with this device with Windows 8.1 incompatibility it finally works great in Windows 10! Please check if you also have Windows 10 TP if your Hitachi drive works as well

• Satellite A200 PSAF6A - HARD drive is not recognized. No recovery of product

  The drive HARD in my Toshiba Satellite A200 PSAF6A-0US01N is not recognized in the machine or any other computer, so I can't run any windows/toshiba repair.

  I know that readers have a factory reset hidden on the disc and press 0 to the power upward, but with the unreadable disk, how can I repair my installation of Windows Vista?

  Hello

  If the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS or other laptops, then I would say that your HARD drive is defective.
  In this case, you need to replace the HARD drive.
  In this case, you will not be able to start the recovery procedure from the HARD drive because it works badly as he has already said

  Are you from the Australia? If you need a recovery disk, I recommend contacting the local Toshiba ASP to get this drive

• IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times. Can someone help me?

  I have a MacBook from 2008. 4 years ago I moved my iPhoto on an external hard drive. I have thousands if photos on it. IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times. Can someone help me?

  < re-titled by host >

  I moved my iPhoto on an external hard drive.

  Did you move the iPhoto library for the external hard drive or the iPhoto application, or both?

  How is formatted the external hard drive? Is the file system on the drive Mac OS extended (journaled) or other system files?  Is the drive directly connected by USB or similar, or is it a SIN?

  IPhoto on the external hard drive will not launch despite the force quit and relaunch several times.

  I don't understand - if you force quit smoking, launches the application, or you can not force it quit?

  IPhoto is suspended without doing anything, when you launch?

  What version of iPhoto does? And what version of Mac OS X?

  < original="" title:="" disk="" management="">

  Hello Russell,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  With the publication of the description, I understand that the hard drive is not reflected in the list of disks on your Windows 7 operating system. I will certainly help you get this problem.

  This problem can occur because of incorrect settings. In order to solve the problem, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if this is useful:

  Method 1: Troubleshooting hardware and devices

  Integrated the hardware and devices troubleshooter can automatically detect and fix most of the incorrect settings and errors that could cause problems with the equipment. I suggest you run the troubleshooter to check if there is no problem with the graphics card. See albums as follows:

  1. open Control Panel

  2. click Troubleshooting and select the option to display all on the left pane.

  3. click Troubleshooting of hardware and devices and follow the prompts.

  Try Method 2, if the problem persists

  Method 2: Make sure that the drive is enabled

  Follow the below mentioned steps to make sure that the drive is enabled:

  1. click on start and type device manager in the search box

  2. click on Device Manager in the control panel list

  3 locate the drives item in the list, and then click the small arrow to the right to expand the list of readers

  If a disk is disabled you will see an icon with an arrow pointing down on the icon of the hard disk

  If you see an icon with an arrow pointing down on the hard drive icon, double-click the icon and click on the button Activate peripheral

  4 then click on activate a device dialog box, click Next, and then click on finish

  5. click Close, and then close the Device Manager window

  Note: If you do not see your hard drive in the listed readers, the player is not detected by Windows.

  Note: If you receive an error message when the hard disk is activated, you can have a bad hard drive.

  Hope the helps of information. Let us know if you need help with Windows related issues. We will be happy to help you.

  Sorry, you can not. A CRC error means that there is a serious problem with your drive. You need to replace it.

• DVD player not recognized after the upgrade to windows 8

  I write this to document some odd behavior, that I lived after the upgrade to Windows 8 in the hope that it might save some grief for others.  Of course, if someone could explain why this problem occurs, I'd be very interested/grateful for an answer.

  I recently updated my computer from Vista Ultimate to Windows 8.  I did a clean install of Windows 8, because there is nothing special about the machine I wanted to preserve.  In all cases, the upgrade went without a hitch and I was soon back up with Windows 8 as my OS (I really like, btw).

  The only oddity I noticed after the upgrade is that my DVD drive was not recognized by the operating system.  Remember, this is the same DVD player that was used to install the OS, so I found it rather peculiar.  After a bit of lost time, try software solutions theoretical I started to play with the equipment.

  My motherboard is an ASUS M3A78-EM.  My hard drive is attached to the SATA1 port and my DVD player is plugged into the SATA2 port.  I removed the DVD drive from SATA2, plugged into SATA3, restart Windows 8 (from HDD on SATA1) and Windows 8 now recognizes the drive!

  I thought it was really weird, so I stop, put the DVD on SATA2 drive, rebooted, and the drive was no longer available in Windows 8.

  OK, so I thought that maybe the SATA2 channel was bad (even if he had worked at the Windows 8 DVD installation, just an hour or two before), so I put my HDD on SATA2 and the DVD drive on SATA1.  After doing this, Windows 8 start very well (so there is nothing wrong with SATA2), and it recognizes the DVD on the SATA1 drive.

  OK, so I did that for a while, and virtually all combinations I tried worked as long as the DVD player is not plugged in SATA2.

  I cannot live with that, but thought it was really strange.  Also, I note that the old operating system (Vista) was acknowledging the same DVD player while it was plugged on SATA2.  This leads me to believe that the problem has something to do with Windows 8, but I can't imagine what could be the cause.

  Thanks dude.  After you create this registry key/value and restart Windows 8 was able to finally see my DVD drive on SATA2.  =)
