• Historical files Windows 8 will not recognize the new external hard drive

  I just bought a new laptop (Sony Vaio) with Windows 8Pro (System op 64-bit, Intel I7, 1THD).  One of the reasons is that I have approached Win8, is I liked the concept of the new 'File History' backup utility  I started to use the computer with an ext WD My Guide of the HD and the history of the files seemed to work.  Then the drive external hard went wrong and I just bought a new WD My Passport 2 t ext HD.  Historical files will not recognize this drive.  He keeps asking the old drive.  When I attached the new drive and go to the screen "Select drive", it says "no usable drives are detected.  Please connect a drive... "I know that the drive is there because I see under 'My computer' and I can copy files to it.  But the history of the files do not recognize.  WD, I called and they helped me to update drivers and even made a update firmware on the drive, but nothing is done.  I tried several fixes suggested in a few links Microsoft 'how file history works...

  I was having this same problem, but then noticed a presentation text easy to miss in the historical files tool that says that the disc "cannot be a part of a library" or something like that. In my case, I had files on my external hard drive that have been included in several libraries... and none that I really used, so I removed the files (and deleted the libraries for good measure). A fast system restart later, and my player does not appear.

  I don't know why MS did not propose it again for this thread as the more obvious thing to check, but there you have it. Something simple and quick to check that could save you some frustration.

• IS does not recognize the drive HARD internal

  I have three, all from a school lab, that have been linked with other positive points and printers.

  They are connected are not together anymore.

  All three have a floppy drive and a HARD drive. Will only boot from the HARD drive.

  At startup, the other two do not recognize their HARD drive and I use ea disk with the system in this regard.

  Since hard drives are not 'seen' I am unable to do anything with them: fix, set up as a boot drive, etc.

  They begin with the usual chimes and the Mac with the question mark, I slip the disk in and they complete commissioning.

  The internal drive spin up and the indicator light flashes.

  They do not show the drive HARD internal on the screen, but will show an external.

  I haven't started to swap parts between the good and the other two.

  Does anyone have an idea on how to activate an invisible HARD drive?

  You will need to use the boot floppy disks to start the machines to run the repair disk, partition and format the HARD drive if it is still functional. Only then can you install Mac OS on the HARD drive. That's all that I remember.

I really like Windows 8 and I don't want to go back and upgrade to Windows 7 again. Thanks in advance.

• New computer that is running Windows 7 does not recognize my external hard drive completely

  I bought a new PC with windows 7.  I use an external hard drive with USB to move the files from the old PC (XP) to the new PC.

  When I go to 'my computer' focus on the external hard drive storage devices is not displayed.

  When I go on my devices, the external hard drive appears.  When I look at the details on this HD and pushes to execution, windows States there are no problem.

  The clues of what I need to do so that I can look at the files on my external hard drive?

  Thank you

  Hi Andre,

  I've struggled for some time with this one, here's how I finally solved it.  Apparently, USB drivers for mass storage devices was not compatible with my external hard drive.  I simply uninstalled the USB drivers for mass storage devices, then plugged my hard drive.  Automatically downloading appropriate drivers, and I was good to go.

  Just thought you might want to know that.

• Windows 7 does not recognize the new hard drive during installation

  My Pavilion hard drive died.  I ordered a new identical and it arises.  Windows 7 starts to load (since a key USB as my DVD died a long time ago) and gets it Windows on the screen asking me to select a player.  But there is no choice to drive in the menu and I can't go any further.  Is the new drive dead too?  Someone suggested that I need to reinstall a 'chip game' and if that's the problem, how to do that?  Thank you!!

  I'm glad that the hard drive is seen now.  To the extent where the DVD player, if you have purchased a new DVD player for the laptop, and you have it installed, then there is something else involved here.  In this MANUAL, it seems that it is just a simple operation change out.  Must be another reason it does not work or is recognized in the BIOS.
