In addition to the above, you will need to also go into the BIOS and turn on legacy Mode in order to boot from another device, but the hard drive with Windows 8.

You may also need to disable secure both boot.

  • Drive mapping: How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.

    How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.  I tried to unplug and power, reboot etc.  There is no F: drive connected to the computer.

    Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / "disk management and select external reader by clicking on it and then right-click on it and select change drive letter and paths."  It should show the letter currently assigned (G I guess).  Click the button change.  To the right will be a drop of drive letters box.  Go ahead and select F and click on OK.  That should do it. If F is not available, then it is used by the system for something else.  Check disk management to see if you can find it.  If it is not, and is not available in the list, I'm afraid, you will not be able to change until find you what is using drive letter F and remove it, or change it to something else.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try to understand what is using F or why it is not available.

    Good luck!

  • How can I get my fixed CD drive? Device Manager says "Driver may be corrupted or missing" B

    How can I get my fixed CD drive? Device Manager says 'driver may be corrupted or missing.

    But when I click on update driver it says "your driver is up to date" and refuses to fix it.

    Hello:

    I found this link where a person fixed a similar problem with editing the registry.

    Make sure that you back up all personal files you do not lose to a portable hard drive and create a restore point by using System Restore utility first, because editing the registry might cause some problems with your PC, also do not start and you have to reinstall the operating system.

    Hello Ghostdogaln.

    How do hang you the controller?  You must either use a * wired * controller, or use a wireless controller with receiver game Xbox 360 for Windows.

    If you use a wireless with a Play and Charge kit controller, it will not work as long as the USB cord only actually plug into the battery for the controller itself.

  • How can I get my USB printer doesn't work?

    I am trying to install a Dell 3000cn laser printer in my computer. He started by putting a virtual printer in my control panel that would not print it had nothing on the Hardware tab, under its properties and real hardware was still on the list of unknown devices in the bottom.  I removed both and removed the driver and tried to install the printer before I plugged it in which does the same thing as before so I went into the Device Manager and there was no printer listed. I've uninstalled the usb printer support and removed everything that are associated and tried. Now I get support of usb error has a printer driver problem.

    I tried to support the customer of Dell they got hung up, I tried Windows customer, they want me to pay.
    I've exhausted the research online and can't find 5 people with the same question online all back in 2008 to 2010 which was never resolved.

    How can I get the USB printer to work?

    Generally, printers do not appear in Device Manager.  You will see, however, registrations for "IEEE 1284.4 devices ' or ' IEEE 1284.4 compatible printer" in particular for HP printers.  It is possible that your Dell printer is really a re-badged HP.

    What exactly did you delete when you have uninstalled the "usb printer support '?

    Please provide the full error message text that you do when this error.

    Why do you think you had a 'virtual' printer is installed?

    Click Start, click devices and printers.  What are the items in the category 'printers and faxes '?

    Did you download the driver appropriate for your version of Windows (including 32-bit or 64 - bit) from here--> http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/product/dell-3000cn/drivers?

    Did you follow these installation instructions:

    1. click on the link download now to download the file.
    2. when the file download window appears, click Save to save the file to your hard drive.

    5. click on the OK button to exit the installation program.
    6. go to the Start button.
    7. go to settings, click Printers.
    8. Select Add a printer.
    9. follow the instructions to set up your printer.

    Hello!

    You will need to use a full copy of Windows XP.  Should be a sticker with the product key on the side of your desk or below if it is a laptop.

    Once you have this drive, you can reinstall Windows XP.  After you have installed all the software and drivers, you will be able to transfer all your data to the new HARD drive.

    If you don't have a copy of Windows XP, you can probably get a copy of the recovery from the manufacturing of computer media.  Just to provide the model and serial number and they should sent it.
