  Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

  I understand that you are facing the issue with the hard drive in the bios but not appear in the windows vista installation.

  Given that the problem is related to the BIOS and a hardware malfunction as possible, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the computer for further assistance regarding this issue.

• USB flash drive receives an error "volume does not contain a recognized file system" in Windows 7

  I plugged my USB on a windows 7. He always invites me to analyze and correct or cancel. I cancelled each time, but I got bored with it popping up each time, so I said to investigate and fix.  A loading screen came so I waited patiently. After that it asks me to format my USB flash drive. I can't format it but because I have files from work to home and all my other personal files out there. So I cancelled the format, but every time that I plug it into my computer it asks t format. I even plugged in on a computer running windows XP and wanted to get in shape. When I try to run it without formatting as it is said, "E:\ is not accessible. The volume does not contain a recognized file system. Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted. "My question is... what we Windows 7 to my USB and how can I recover my data?

  This is common with USB drives used on different operating systems. It happens alwaysto me when I use my drive to work (which is managed since my MacBook Pro) on Vista and Windows 7 client computers. Like you, I learned the hard way you must cancel the digitization of Vista/Win7. The only thing to do at this stage is to connect the player to a computer that can read the files OR use the software of data recovery on it to get the files. I believe that Recuva can do it for free. Format the Flash DRIVE, then start again. Either way, you don't want to use a USB key as a single backup of important files because - as you have unfortunately discovered - stuff happens.

• new computer with win 7 pro when it is connected to a Flash drive or external hard drive poster, you have currently not authorized to access this folder or location is not available

  There are now 4 computers in front of me.

  Two are laptops 17 inch hp (consumer)

  Two are workstations mobile hp 17 inch (company)

  On the consumer books, I can view the files on my external hard drive 1 to and 1 GB player.

  On the company workstation (mobile), I'm not able to view the files on the hard drive or flash drive.

  I need your help so that I can save files from the internal hard drive of the mobile platform of book z hard disk external.  And I need to be able to reconnect the external drives and readers to the Zbook mobile workstation to transfer files to transfer flash.

  These are the pop ups that appear for each when displaying of readers by opening my computer:

  When left click hard disk drive a pop up appears with the title bar: location is not available.

  H:\ is not accessible.

  Access is denied.

  Make a right click on the hard drive allows FreeAgent GoFlex drive opening (h :)) properties)

  The tabs are ReadyBoost, previous Versions, Quota, customize, general, tools, hardware, sharing, security

  By clicking on security of advances and then permissions then continue and then change my name owner or administrator... both methods result in the same access denied result once again.

  I came across this http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/00d04415-2b2f-422c-b70e-b18ff918c281 is this something I need to study and learn before I am able to connect and use an external drive or flash?  Or is there another problem?  If the answer is in this link, do I have to put emphasis on and why wasn't windows 7 configured so that it is easy to use external drives as in win xp and win 8?  Are all usb ports do not or all drivers of failing or is it a software problem all?

  I was not able by trial and error to display all files on any hard drive or external flash on the two books of z of mobile workstation.

  Then I went to the flash drive.

  Left click on the flash drive produces a pop-up with title bar G:\

  You don't have permission to access this folder.

  Click on continue to get permanent access to this folder.

  After clicking on continue it opens another pop-up with title bar G:\

  You have been denied permission to access this folder.

  To access this folder, you will need to use the Security tab.

  When clicking on the Security tab he opens a new pop with the title bar: removable disk (g) properties

  The tabs are general, tools, hardware, sharing, ReadyBoost, customize

  He did not indicate what to do next.

  Or computers with their multiple ports usb allows to access my external hard drive or flash drive.

  The external hard disk and flash dirve each work very well with the consumer portable computers hp with winning 8 and 8.1 of win and have worked with computers with win xp.

  How can I get the Replicator hp z book with win 7 pro for usb drives work with external hard drives or external flash drives?

  I have so far done the following:

  (1) run administrative guest with sfc/scannow and it found no violations of integrity

  (2) ran microsoft fixit will be all available Parameters which automatically checked and corrected each book workstation z mobile http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_file_and_folder_diag/

  (3) contacted HP support

  (4) checked for malware using microsoft security essentials, malwarebytes and spybot on each mobile workstation

  (5) updated drivers using HP support assistant on each computer

  (6) windows update the device HP support assistant on each computer

  How do two new computers with win 7 pro can be connected to external drives that allow to view the files as they do with win xp and win 8 automatically?

  How can I access my files on the external hard disk and flash the mobile workstation book z?

  The specifications for the mobile workstation of zbook are:

  Operating system: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Service Pack 1

  Microprocessor: Intel core i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.7 GHz

  Moemory system: 16 GB of memory on 2 1600 MHz dimm

  Graphics device 1: Nvidia Quadro K3100M

  Graphics device 2: Intel HD 4600 graphics card

  Hard drive 1: SCSI Disk Device

  C: 683.42 (613,62 free go-go)

  D: 12.21 GB (1,3 GB free)

  E: 1.99 GB (1.97 GB free)

  The hard drive is a seagate 1 TB drive that works very well

  The flash drive is a 1 GB drive which works very well

  This problem has been resolved.

  Right-click all methods have not access external external hard drives and flash drives.

  Sharing, permissions, ownership, administrative changes, all method all failed.

  This problem has been resolved by higher HP product support.  Other levels of support were not able to diagnose the problem or fix.

  The problem has been resolved by:

  (1) determine that he was not a NTFS problem

  (2) using the msconfig to isolate a single service

  When the unique service has been disabled the files on any external drives have been available.

  The service of the problem was the HP Client Security.

  This HP Client Security in its default value is set to deny access.

  Then right-click on the drive and change the permissions, ownership, to administrators, using everyone etc. will fail because they are all trumped by the HP Client Security that is set by default to deny access.

  When that client security is changed the drives become available.  It is not information about this when using the computer and this can be learned by trial and error.

  I hope this helps all those who have z book 17 mobile workstations or HP computers that are equipped with client security.

• Secondary hard drive receives the drive letter assigned to the start-up

  I have recently formatted my secondary hard drive, which had been sitting in my empty PC and do nothing for a while, to function as a music folder. The problem I have is that every time you start that I have to manually assign the drive letter, Windows does not automatically. I tried to reformat the hard disk, but it does not solve the problem. In addition, by train to perform a bugcheck gives an error indicating the check cannot be completed. Personally, I have no idea how to solve this problem, and I have not found anyone with the same issue.

  Hi Revolvist,

  There is a possibility that the second hard disk is defective or damaged.

  If the second hard disk is a separate hard drive, I suggest you disconnect the drive from the computer (if possible) and connect to another computer and check if the problem persists.

  Install or remove a hard drive

  My suggestion: a WD SATA II 750 GB at 7200 RPM should work fine.

Make sure the office is inserted correctly, or that you are connected to the internet or your network, and then try again. If it can't be located, the information may have been moved to another location. »

  You don't say what the problem is with the hard drive of the laptop you are trying to install this hard drive Vista preinstalled from the other laptop in.

  If you bought them at the same time, two thay have Vista Home Premium on them?

  Why not use this laptop you try to go there and his original hard drive, if still OK.

  If its hard drive is not OK > you can then put this "non-genuine" hard drive in it > reinstall the correct version of Vista that is pre-installed on the notebook computer > then purchase an upgrade to Windows 7 If you wanted to.
