Once I downloaded it the safety scanner Microsoft occupy one would not work. After speaking with the support of software (Trusteer report) I managed to uninstall the software, but the next day after uninstall the system just kept in a boot loop. Nothing works.

• Can I use my hard drive as slave on my laptop?

  My Dell Dimension 9100 does not work and I would try to run the hard drive as slave on my PC toshiba laptop. Is it possible or it would have to do on another office?

  Thank you

  Hey Danny,

  ·         What exactly is the problem you are having with the Dell computer?

  Most laptops will not accept that the two internal hard drives.

  You will need to check with the manufacturer of laptop for more information on the connection of two hard drives to your particular model.

  You can also use a USB hard drive which you can then use to retrieve the data on your hard drive to the laptop via the USB port.

• How to change the hard drive from the slave to master drive?

  Original title: drives hard slave to master, how.

  I try to use an external hard drive carrier to download my data files on my laptop. One worked as a data file. The second and third would not show.
  They can be slaves, so how can I change the masters so that I can download them?

  If the suggestion to use disk management doesn't help you, please explain what you mean by "first' and 'second and third."  You have several hard drives, multiple partitions on a single physical disk, or just several files?

  Also explain in detail the steps you take to 'download' (i.e., transfer) the files to your laptop.

  Status 'Master' and 'slave' is not applicable to your situation.

• Hi I reinstalled my Win XP Home because the current drive was getting old. But I installed it on a new hard drive connected as "Slave" but now he can't start

  I have connected the new hardrive as a 'slave', re-installed my Win XP even & re-patched everything on it including SP3, programs & ups back-ups, but oh no! the new hard drive when it is plugged in as a 'master', it does not start!

  But with the old hard drive connected as long as 'master', I have the option of "dual boot".

  I guess because my new drive is not a reader of "system"? I can see that my old drive is listed as 'system '. How to make my other even without having to re - install all over again? Thank you!

  Hi Fishlipps,

  Thanks for posting. Most likely you see it as your boot.ini is located on a drive corresponding to your system on a different drive. The easy way to do this would be to reinstall or do a repair on the computer installation. Please make a backup before attempting this.

  1.	When the message Press any key to boot from the CD appears on your screen, press a key to start your computer from the Windows XP CD.
  2.	When you see the message to install Windows XP nowand then press ENTER is displayed on the Welcome to the Setup screen, press ENTER.
  3.	Do not choose the option to press R to use the Recovery Console.
  4.	In the Windows XP licensing agreement, press F8 to accept the license agreement.
  5.	Make sure that your current installation of Windows XP is selected in the box, and then press R to repair Windows XP.
  6.	Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.

  Another option would be to modify the boot.ini located directly on the root of your drive. Below is a knockout with instructions on how to do it. However please backup all your data by doing one of them because both can make your computer unbootable.

• My users will not be displayed when I slave my hard drive with Vista on a computer running Windows 7.

  How can I solve this problem and have my admin and my user appear in the directory?  My hard drive went out on me on my other computer, so I tried to slaves in the top of the tower.  All other folders appear in my directory, but not users.  There are default user on this subject.  Can I use a data recovery software, but it will take a day and a half to get the files.  I ran the program of restoration of data for a few hours and it has recovered some of the pictures I want.  So I try to see if I'm doing something wrong, before investing in the recovery of the entire file.  Thank you.

• Installation of a second HARD disk (slave drive) in an Inspiron 3646

  Can I add a second HDD (a slave drive) to an Inspiron 3646? It's a new I 3646, he replaced one consumed. I managed to save the hard drive and I would like to install it as a backup drive/extra storage.

  I can't find any technical information on the Dell website, no patterns or the FAQ.

  There are two bays 'open' on the rear of the case. It allows to install the reader?

  There is no cage attached to these berries or inside the case. Workaround is to make an external hard drive and plug in usb, but would rather put it in the box.

  Any suggestions? Thank you.

  Is it possible to remove the optical drive and replace it with a second hard drive?  This needs no additional hardware?  He would support a 3.5 or 2.5 "hard drive using this method?

  sdxm

  Yes, you could.

  There are two 5.25 "x 3.5" and 5.25 "x 2.5"Bay of converters available, probably 2.5 HD"would be the best fit, but you have to find a 5.25" virgins for the collar. [page 34].

• Changed computers. Old HARD drive is now slave. FF is not find old settings and saved passwords. Very Important saved passwords.

  Hello
  I changed my computer. Essentially, the M/B, CPU, RAM, HARD drive, etc. I still have my old HDD and Mozilla is installed there. I have a lot of passwords saved on that Firefox. I started Firefox from here itself. Yet, FF can't find passwords and other things. They are very important because they are the passwords for the income tax, tax services, the VAT of various clients Web sites. I'm a tax lawyer. So, if I can't get these, I'm dead. Help, please.

  For passwords, you must signons3.txt and signons.sqlite

• Location of the bookmarks on an old hardrive that is not Windows, running but the old hard disk files are accessed through another hard drive.

  The old hard disk does not run Windows, so access to the usual file through Windows Explorer or Firefox has not worked for me. The old hard drive is now a slave drive and all files are intact and accessible via the new Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

  You have Windows configured to display the hidden files and folders? If not, do it as soon as the first. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/show-hidden-files#show-hidden-files=Windows-7

  Then, what version of Windows do you have on the old drive? Your profile folder must be on the way there:

  Windows XP and earlier versions:

  \Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  Windows Vista and later:

  \Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
  

  If you find multiple profile folders, see the recent order. You find a subfolder named bookmarkbackups. This article describes how to restore the .json files, you will find: restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer.

  A little luck?

• Portege 7010CT - no hard drive recognized

  Hi all

  I have a Portege 7010CT, I want to use to drive my modeltrain, because it has a RS-232 connection. The problem is however it doesnot recognize the hard drive more. I bought a new one that works fine in another laptop but when I put it in Portege said with the installation of Windows that no hard drive is detected.

  Looking in the Bios, it also says that no hard drive is configured. I can't however in the Bios to change this. East - auto detection? What can I do to make the Portege recognize the hard drive? Thanks for help.

  Greetings Willem

  Hey, Willem.

  As far as I know this old notebook used hard drives with IDE interface. Normally, on all hard drives with this interface, you have a rider where you can switch between Master, Slave and Cable Select.

  I recommend you to check this. Set the switch to Master and try again.

• Pavilion a6500f: can I add a second SATA hard drive to my HP Pavilion a6500f?

  I have a HP Pavilion a6500f running Windows 7 Home Premium.  I would like to add a second hard drive to 500 GB 7200 RPM to it as a slave drive.  Can I do this?  And if I can how do I know what size must have the hard drive?

  That your system is 8 years old, I suggest you these:

  (1) clone the old drive to a new drive, either 500 GB or 1 TB.  Use it as your new drive system.  Modern Sata 600 drives are 6 Gbps with 64 MB of cache memory. It will have better performance than older Sata 300 players with 32 MB cache / 3 GB/s.

  (2) your old-school, like the reader of the term 'slave' was a reference to the IDE/EIDE, cabling system.

  (3) all you need is a standard WD or Seagate 7200 RPM disk 3,5 '' hard. Both offer a free disk assistant program to facilitate the process of cloning.

• How to replace the hard drive internal on Satellite 2450?

  Hello!
  Last month, after a BSOD displayed (I don't have the code of error message, unfortunately) my laptop decided to not work again.
  At the start, he reached the start menu and then displays a black screen... no message, no auto restart... nothing. Just a weird noise coming from the hard drive (like a scratched cd).

  I tried to format the drive, but without success. After choosing the boot source, trying to read the cd and the black screen appears again, with no message. I checked if the Bay of cd is not working properly and it is. (I think)
  So I replaced the HDD in my satellite 2450. A new toshiba ide 2.5 30 GB hard drive. But when I install a new one, the system does not recognize.

  The control panel of the Bios says that "no hard disk" is available, and I can not change this option. (locked)
  With the Windows Xp cd in the drive, the Setup program runs all properly until the 'select drive' format menu, witch says that no hard drive is recognized (with a new drive hard in).

  I don't really know what to do!
  Is something missing in this process?

  Thank you for the patience

  Hello

  The laptop did not recognize a new HARD drive. Which is one reason why Win XP cannot follow the additional installation steps

  I can't say exactly why the HARD drive is not recognized, but the 30 GB IDE should be ok.
  I remember one of my friends had a similar problem with the new HARD drive.
  Some hard drives have a jumper (3.5 HARD drive and 2.5 IDE HARD drive too)
  Maybe you should check if a rider has been set to the right position (slave?).

  Check it otherwise that I recommend to test with another new HARD drive

  In the worst case the disc HARD controller might be faulty, but it would mean replacing a motherboard

• Tecra 9100 unrecognized hard drive

  Hello
  If I replace the hard drive in my tosh bios indicates no hard disk is installed.
  The new hard drive is MK2016GAP I tried with and without the master/slave relationship.

  Clues?

  Hello

  The MK2016GAP is a 20 GB HARD drive.
  I searched the Internet for the Tecra 9100 and discovered that the phone comes with 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive.
  BIOS shouldn't t so no problem with the size of the HARD drive. The size of the HARD drive is certainly supported.

  So I think it's a problem of jumper or you did not connect the disk HARD corectly.
  I put t know how the jumper was set to your old HDD, but you should check the position of the jumper and put it also on the new HARD drive.

  Hello

  As far as I know you can build in a second HDD, but it must be defined as the slave HARD drive. If your has been defined as master he can be a problem, because in your case, there are two disks HARD masters.

  One of my friends already tried that, and it had success just at the moment where 2nd HARD drive has the same capacity as the first. Two of them were with a capacity of 80 GB.

  Configure the other as a slave, and then try again. If you have success, let me know.

  Good bye
