How can I change the player assigned to the SSD for a SATA instead of the SCSI drive?

Original title: SCSI instead of SATA

I built a PC with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.  My C: drive is a Samsung 840 Pro SSD.  The system never worked properly and I discovered that the SSD which is a SATA 3 drive in Device Manager is configured as a SCSI disk.  Someone knows how to change the driver assigned to the SSD for a SATA instead of the SCSI driver?

Hello Uriel,

Thank you for your response.

SATA controllers will normally appear as "SCSI" controllers in windows. It's normal and nothing to worry about. Often the SATA controllers will also be able to run in IDE mode and then they present themselves as IDE controllers, but it is unlikely that they will be able to operate optimally, as the IDE interface is missing some features of SATA. So even if you do not have the ability to set the cache in the Device Manager, a SATA controller is running in mode SATA should work just fine.

The IDE bus is managed by the controller SATA3, and if this control is set in the BIOS to "IDE" somehow it seems related to the operating system as a SCSI device.  By setting this entry in the BIOS to "RAID/IDE" IDE devices get properly detected.

This can also occur if you change the BIOS settings for the SATA ports of 'IDE' to 'AHCI' after installing Windows 7.

I hope this information helps.

Thank you

  • How can I change the music button on my keyboard to launch Windows Media Player to launch WinAmp?

    original title: program music keyboard key

    How can I change the music button on my keyboard to launch Windows Media Player to launch WinAmp?

    Thank you

    Drew

    As Mike Hall suggested, first look for the keyboard utility and seek to change the keyboard assignment there.

    If this option is not available, you can try to change the default program to open files of music. I do not think that "hotkey" keyboard music trying to specifically open Windows Media Play, rather it opens the program assigned as the default value for the music.

    So you'll need to get to the default programs control panel applet. To get there:

    1. Click Start , then Control Panel (in midway up on the right side)
    2. In the Control Panel window, click programs (not options, just the word more big programs). (If you have your set control panel to displayall items in the Panel control, then the applet default programs will be already visible and available directly)
    3. The second group of options should be the default programs. The two options here that should be of interest to you are:
      Make a file always open in a specific program type and (especially) set your default programs.

    You should find everything you need there.

    I need to create a table of contents in iPages but I want only one word for the title, not the line of holes. Or, how can I change the contents of the table? Thank you!

    Yes, you can have a one word title, by assigning a paragraph style title to this one word. No, you cannot change the text in a Table of contents, but you can change paragraph style font attributes (line) and add for example, a head of points between the types of OCD paragraph and page numbers. No part of the table of contents will not provide hyperlinks in exported PDF documents.

    When you look up in the menu bar, you can see the word iPages, or simply Pages. There is no product of iPages.

  • How can I change the name of the search engine in the search bar?

    I just added the Oxford Dictionary to my list of search engines in the search bar. Only problem is that it does not say Oxford Dictionary. It says ONO.

    How can I change the list of search engines, I can change the more evocative name?

    Are there not such somewhere or an XML file that contains these entries?

    Firefox gathers information about the plugins of research from two sources - the default searchplugins folder that is shared by all profiles Firefox (C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins) and the folder searchplugins in your active profile. They are combined into a data file named search.json.

    I read a few threads on the net about the modification of these search plugins, and it seems to require some trial and error. Assume that the ONO plugin is in your profile.

    Under help > troubleshooting information, you can click the open folder containing (pre-Fx12) or folder (Fx12) Show to open your folder of the currently active profile. Snap searchplugins. Here are the XML files you can edit in your favorite text editor. If you break one, you can probably just download again, but if you're a cautious type, go ahead and make a backup.

    After the change the short name and save and close the file, change your probably not will immediately appear in Firefox because some trigger event may be necessary to update search.json. If the restart of Firefox is not enough, you can try to rename search.json before restarting, but this can cause you to lose the keywords that you have assigned through the dialog box handle the search engines.

    In any case, it's all improvised that have not tried-TI-me-even, then I suggest to do some additional research.

    (If there is an Add on very practical to do this, I don't find it.)
