Help local disk drives of switching

How to move from the local disk (c) to local disk (d :)) (c) is full?)

Spend what?

When you install new programs?  Simply make custom installations.

When you save downloads?  Or search for the alternative location.

Where your My Documents folders and such point?
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310147
or
  http://www.mydigitallife.info/change-my-documents-folder-default-location-path-in-XP-and-Vista/

But a more permanent solution - to expand drive C (if possible) with a third-party utility or the image reader and somehow apply this image to a new disk that is bigger... or - in other words - get a larger overall size of C:.

  • one of my local disk drive indicates space used some GB, but nothing is stored in this disk physically.

    one of my local disk drive shows the space used a few GB of data even if nothing is physically stored in this disk

    When you go to start / computer and select which lead and then choose explore does nothing there or are there any files or folders.  Make sure you first start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and check the button to view the hidden files, check the box to show system files and uncheck Hide extensions of known file types files.  Explorer shows that it uses space (exactly how much)?  What was on this front disc has been added to your computer as an additional drive?

    Go to start / Control Panel / Admninistrative tools / computer management / disk management and tell me what he says on this drive.  Does also show the disk space used or is it clean? Hover your mouse over the the disk image and a text box appears.  Post the EXACT content, as they are presented.

    If you want to clean up (and there is nothing on it to save) then right click on the drive and click Format.  This will wipe the drive and I hope, will solve this problem.  If this is not the case, the reader may have a hidden partition that occupies space. We can deal with that by deleting the partition and then format again.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite M40X - big problems with Sims 3 - help with disk drives!

    Hello
    I recently bought the sims 3 and unfortunately an error message appears saying "Disk authentication failure" I noticed after calling EA games and reading through many forums that there was a problem evident with laptops Toshiba and their ability to play the sims 3 (disk DLA).
    I did like the forums all recommended, and I have disabled the DLA drive, uninstalled the sims and restarted the computer. Not only could I not play the sims or re - install, but my computer did not recognize even the hard drive, he kept saying 'bad volume' etc.
    I got the sims on the computer and then re-enabled the DLA drive, causing my computer to close and show a major error on a blue screen.

    I then turned the computer back on, and it does not recognize the disc sims 3 more... It recognizes the other placed disks in the cd-rom drive... But now when I put the sims 3 in the player and enter my computer to open it it tells me to insert a disc into the cd player...

    My questions are the following...

    A.) how can I get my hard drive to recognize the disc sims being in the drive

    (B) once this problem is solved, how can I go about installing and using the sims 3 without disabling the DLA, which proved detrimental drive.

    (C.) other problems with computers laptop toshiba have turned around an individual driver... Metisha or something? My driver's - VOB COMPUTERSYSTEME GMHB
    Or something to that effect, which means that it has nothing to do with the DLA drive.

    For the person who can help me, that would be so so appreciated...

    Thank you

  • My Hard disk drive (C) is full and can not save on my local drive (D)... Help!

    I can't save anything else on my computer and I feel as if I had barely whether registered here initially. My (C) drive is almost full and my local disk drive (D) has so much space to this topic, but I don't know how to do as my default player. I tried following the suggestions of the people online, but nothing helped. Can anyone help?

    The first thing to do is run the disk cleanup utility. Instructions here.

    Then, try to move some files and folders. There are a few different folders, you can move from the C drive to the D drive. So let me suggest you only start moving your files, documents, music, photos and video from C to d. here are the instructions. You need to do one at a time. To find them, in Solution Explorer, expand the C drive, find your name under users and all your personal files are there.

    After these two things, tell me how much space you have on C.

  • LOCAL USE OF HARD DRIVE D: AS AN EXTENSION OF THE LOCAL C: DRIVE

    The office is a Dell Optiplex GX260 with Windows XP Professional Version 2002, Service Pack 3. The local disk C: drive only has 1 GB of available space remaining and the local disk D: drive is not formatted and has never been used. Two local disk drives show in my computer. The local disk C: drive has a NIFS file system while the unformatted local disk D: drive has a RAW file system.

    I would like to know if it is possible to format the D: drive and use it as an extension of the local disk C: drive, that is to say with the same function as an external hard drive. I assumed that it has the same capacity as the local disk C: drive, which is 20 GB. The object is to copy and delete a sufficient number of emissions from local drive C: to D: local hard drive so that I'll have 8 to 10 GB of space available in local disk C:

    Details of any change in firmware and driver coding, etc. it will take, if any, would be appreciated.

    It is possible to just open the program files in local disk drive C: and copy paste every program chosen for local disk D: in my computer drive, folder then delete the copy Aquamatic program files in the local disk C: drive which is free disk space in the local disk drive C and would not affect those programs in the control panel?  If it's more complicated than that, comments would be appreciated.

    This is based on the assumption that the computer will recognize programs in local disk drive d and use them as necessary, as if they were in the local disk C: drive

    Thank you

    Hi Notfinished,

    What you try to do, is use your second hard drive for some of your files and possibly applications. I suggest that you format the drive D: to NTFS. Easy to move to the D: drive would be My Documents, as described HERE. The same would apply to my music, my pictures, etc. Applications can be moved easily. You will need to reinstall the application and during the installation process, select the D: drive as destination. For many applications, this involves the use of the option "Custom Installation".

    Let me know if you have any other questions.

    You can change the location of the disk to save the data in the d: instead of C: and check if it helps.

    b. right click on the folder that you want to change the location, and then select Properties.
    c. click on the location tab and change the location to D: drive.

    original title: How do I get rid of non-existent hard disk that appears on my computer screen?

    I have a local disk (q) that loads automatically on my folder "Computer" [the folder that shows all hard drives and peripheral storage removable]. The drive does not exist and when I double click above it says "Q:\\ is not accessible access is denied." I unplugged my external hard drives, and these drives disappear from the screen by this disc remains still.  How can I get rid of him?

    I found an article from third party in which people have found a solution:

    I hope this helps! (you can back up the registry first)

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk

  • I just installed DW 13.2.  Linked files (all CSS, scripts...) "are not on the local disk" - all works in CS6. Help..?

    I just installed DW 13.2.  Linked files (all CSS, scripts...) "are not on the local disk" - all works in CS6. Help...

    When I insert one of the page of the Web site, it shows in the design window.  But when I try to bring any document linked in the left window, code, it is empty and the message says: "whatever.css is not on the local drive.  Also, when I click on LIVE, the file looks like she does not see the file CSS, no images.

    The same site looks and works OK in the DW CS6.

    I'm on Maverick - 2012 Mac Pro - 2 x 2.66 12-core, 64 GB of RAM.

    I configured the same way as CS6 preferences.  Same location of the site, same links.

    Am I missing something?  What should I do?  I uninstalled the DW CC, cleaned pref and installed it again.  Same question.

    Help, please.

    I think, I solved the problem, but I still think that the Dreamweaver does not recognize the addresses.

    I then drive CC_A BB_A Web sites (these are the actual names of the readers).  It's always the disk 'data', apart from the OS, but with a different name.  everything works.  Opening files referred to in the script window, 'live' works as supposed.

    I can only speculate that readers 'CC_A' name has confused the program called CC.

    I can find no other explanation, since, in addition to the name of the drive - everything else is the same.

    Thanks for trying to help.

    Check if the drive works now.

    If the drive still does not work, open all programs, open accessories, right-click on command prompt and select "run as Administrator".  In at the prompt, type the following command and press ENTER.

    sfc/scannow                (Note that there is a space between sfc and /)

    Let the entire process, then the output type and press ENTER.

    Then, click on the Start Menu, open Control Panel and click Device Manager.  Click to open the CD/DVD-ROM drives.  Right-click on the drive and choose uninstall.  Do not delete if requested drivers.  When the device has been uninstalled click the icon 'Search for hardware changes' (usually just below help in the toolbar).  Let windows reinstall the disc and see if it works now.
