• Floppy drive icon not shown in "Devices with removable storage" in Windows 7

  I have a floppy drive connected to my motherboard, and it has been activated on my board Super IO Configuration in my UEFI.  I have a hard drive with Windows 7 installed, and a hard drive with Windows XP installed.

  In Windows XP, in the window my computer , under "Devices with removable storage", my floppy drive icon here and I can access the drive.  But in Windows 7, the floppy icon is not there, and when I type "A:" in the search bar, I get "the system cannot find the drive specified."

  I checked the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\MountedDevices registry, and I see the A: drive among the mounted devices.  I checked my Device Manager window, and I see 'floppy drive controllers' in the list, but not "floppy drive", I see in Windows XP.

  How can I get my floppy drive activated or reactivated in Windows 7, with the floppy disk icon showing?

  Never mind.  I received my floppy drive in Windows 7.

  Here's what I did:

  I'm back in my UEFI and disabled the floppy controller in my Super IO Configuration and starts in the two Windows operating systems.  The floppy drive, of course, disappeared in Windows XP.

  I tucked my UEFI and re-activated my floppy controller.  Now, the drive appears in Windows XP and Win7.

• Solution: The USB floppy drive is not recognized during installation of XP of RAID

  Hello

  This Solution is for notebooks Qosmio with RAID driver during (manual installation of windows)

  I found the Solution to this problem,

  [When you install Microsoft Windows XP by using a floppy drive USB on a player who]
  requires a driver during the installation, the USB floppy drive is not recognized in all
  installation. When Windows XP searches the driver of the second time, he will not be able to see
  the floppy USB drive drive and prompts the user for the driver (RAID) again.
  The installation will never reach this point. ]

  Solution:

  This is a limitation of Microsoft, the Floppy Drive are do not appear in the file Windows 'txtsetup.sif.

  Simply change the floppy drive in another brand and avoid Usb 2.0 external Usb floppy plus old 1 Try
  Also note the back of drive sometimes they write (no bootable) avoid this also

• Virtual audio driver does not work on Equium A100

  I thought that my problem is solved, but it is not (referring to my other thread)

  I downloaded the audio driver as advised, but he said 'your computer doesn´t support virtual sound '.
  I bought my computer in Spain and changed to XP Professional to get the English language (and I like more Pro).

  I downloaded all the drivers in the download section of satellite in English - all are installed.
  Finally, one is the virtual audio driver is not working.
  Tried the Spanish version, too and it is said the same thing.

  All solutions?

  Thank you very much in advance!

  Hello

  To my knowledge, install drivers in the correct order, if you install the operating system manually.
  It is a prerequisite not if you want to use the Toshiba drivers, tools and utilities.

  I can t believe that it of not possible to install the audio driver.
  XP Home and XP Pro uses the same drivers there is no problem of driver compatibility. I think you should follow the installation guide that you can find on the page of the driver and then install all the drivers as described in the document.

  Hello

  Have you tried to update the CD/DVD drive?
  You could go to the Device Manager and could remove the reader of CD/DVD from the list of devices.
  Then, you must restart the laptop.
  After restarting again the Windows operating system will recognize the new device as the CD/DVD drive and will initialize and reinstall the driver.

  Then try using the new CD/DVD drive

• MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "

  Hello

  So, here are the problems I encounter, and what I did to try to fix myself.
  Whenever I try to connect my MP3 player via the USB port (no matter which), it keeps coming back as the "Drive is not accessible. Access is denied. "  This same thing happens everytime I try to put an SD card in the SD card slot.  However, despite this, I can plug my USB mouse and use it, as well as the keyboard and it records only.  I can also use the HDMI port to use my TV as a second monitor and, also, to record that.
  What I did to solve the problem, it is to restore the system to the previous times before that happened, did not.  I also went into the Device Manager and uninstalled and re installed, USB and SD card drivers.  I also tried something in the sense of taking control of the files via a right click on a folder and go to properties and then security and to the 'advanced settings', the problem with this situation is that I can't in readers at all.
  I am currently running Windows 7 (64 bit) on a laptop Lenovo, the computer itself is actually only a few months.  If someone knows something about this, please let me know.  Thanks in advance.

  Hi ronreyna,

  Try the following steps:

  Put the computer in a clean boot (namely if any third-party software hinders the process)

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135 ---> how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  Check with step 1 (run a clean boot):-If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

  Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

  (Note: after find you the problem causing the program, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program and also don't forget to put the computer to a normal startup)

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  The SFC utility allows administrators to perform an analysis of all protected resources to make sure they are the correct version. Whether SFC should find all incorrect versions in one of these protected resources, SFC will be replaced by the correct versions.

  You can still run a sfc on the windows vista computer scan. To run a scan suite sfc as follows:

  a. Click Start, in the start search bar type cmd, right-click on the command prompt icon in the box programs and then click Run as administrator.

  b. at the command prompt type sfc/scannow , and then press ENTER.

  All the best!

  Thank you and best regards,
