How can I get windows 8 to see a new hard drive

• How can I get Windows Server 2012 Essentials recognize my HARD drive when you turn an external HARD drive in a drive HARD internal storage?

  I recently had a pool of storage space using 3 external drives USB 3.0 in Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  I decided to take the readers out of the enclosure and connected directly to the internal SATA connectors on my motherboard.  When the server was launched upward, these 3 discs now display as disconnected in storage.

  When I do the command 'get-disc' physical in PowerShell, the drives appear as "drives physical 1,2 & 5" and are 2.72 to each. "."  But it also lists disks Seagate Expansion as well, with a status of "communication lost".  These are the same three disks that are now internal.

  Nothing has been deleted or erased, so all the data is still on each individual unit and assume that if I managed to put back them in the external enclosure, would immediately online.  I thought that everything simply moving them to a new HARD disk controller (internal SATA USB) would not cause the pool to drop the readers, they are always connected to the same server.

  Is there a way to get storage space to see and read the 3 internal drives to bring my pool/area back online without losing any data?

  Hello NavarroIT,

  In addition to the previous comments, I have link for HD is not recognized.  It is an external drive.  However, without knowing the manufacturer of your hard drive, you will need to check on this end.  You may need to format the disk first.  I hope this helps.

• How can I get rid of the old on my hard drive under XP restore points?

  How can I get rid of the old points of restor on my hard drive

  A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

  cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

• How can I reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive?

  I strongly suspect failure of hard drive on my old computer XPS 420. Data recovery isn't a problem. However, because the way I too lazy to buy a whole new operating system, is possible that I can transfer the installation of Windows Vista on a new hard drive? I told me that Dell will send me an installation disc to do, but how to make a record like this, and is there another way?

  I'm thinking of ghosting the HDD on another and the use of the recovery for nuke partition in a new facility, but it would even work?

  Thank you

  The simplest method, I prefer to install a replacement hard drive, is to clone the existing hard drive to the new, that will also transfer all applications and programs.

  You need an imaging utility, similar to True Image Home 2015.

  http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/TrueImage

  Acronis resize partitions transferred to match the size of the new hard drive.

  Hard drive manufacturers, also have their own free cloning software available, but it can be used only with their hard drives.
  
  First, install the new drive as the secondary and the image of the main hard drive in it.

  Immediately after the cloning, shut down the system, switch the data cable [SATA port 0] to the new disk, making the new master hard drive and see if the system boots properly.

  Start the system with only the new hard drive connected.

  Be sure to leave the original drive disconnected, until the new hard drive is working to your satisfaction.

  Before cloning a hard drive, make sure that the existing drive has no corruption or virus on it, because they will be transferred to the new hard drive.

  It will take a second SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.

  What is obtaining a disc from the Dell operating system Vista OEM [If Dell still copies of this available media], but you can be out of luck unless you have a warranty from Dell, but it's worth a try to see what is happening.

  If you reside in the United States, or the Canada and are the registered owner of the computer, with an active warranty, a disk that contains the operating system specific to your system factory installed can be requested HERE.

  Note: Dell may impose a charge for the disc.

  If you do not live in the United States, contact the Support from Dell, which is located in your country.

• How can I move my operating system to a new hard drive or other solutions, must be the Media Center

  My computer a gateway 815GM Media center PC has become black and start with some gray characters and words back up your data and replace the hard drive is bad. (or similar) My question is how can I move the operating system Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to a new hard drive.  Since the problem is the hard drive and all the computer a new operating system should not be purchased.  If there is no way to move it is it possible Microsoft send a replacement free of charge, or at least OS with only shipping.  My computer came with it pre-installed, and I have not received the drive with the OS on it.  What can I do?  Thank you for your information.

  When you received your entry door, it came with a CD or operating system recovery disc. If you no longer have that (or has not made a recovery disc set a utility included), contact Gateway to buy a set of recovery disks. It is normally fairly cheap. Then install the new hard drive and booting with the recovery disk to restore your computer to the factory State. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• How can I get Windows 7 to recognize my NAS drive as a file server?

  I just bought a new desktop computer with Windows 7 (the first time I used it at home).  I have three drives NAS; one of them is an of Maxtor Central axis.  I use the Central axis as a file server, it has Word, Excel and other Office files in addition to my music library and a handful of videos.  Whenever I try to open a document, say Word, Windows 7 does not show the Maxtor under my network.  It shows one of the other drives NAS (Iomega).  When I right click on the network, click "Open in a new window", I see the Maxtor drive. However when I click on it, Windows will open Windows Media Player.  I see only three songs, which aren't even mine; I think they were samples placed on the disk by an application.

  Other machines on my network (a computer laptop PC and Mac) continue to be able to see the of Maxtor Central axis.

  I can open my documents giving the fully qualified network path "\\Mca-054e16\Public", but it's a pain.  I can't map a drive letter for the drive; I just get the small circle who constantly.

  How can I get Windows 7 see Maxtor Central Axis like a file server and not only a media server?

  Thanks in advance for any help that anyone may be able to provide,

  Nolan

  Hello

  ·        How do you set up the network?

  ·        Have you used a Maxtor software?

  The Seagate knowledge base indicates that his NASwas released before the release of Windows 7. Therefore, it has not been tested in this environment and is not supported by Technical Support. http://Seagate.custkb.com/Seagate/CRM/selfservice/search.jsp?docid=211931&NewLang=en&HiLite=Maxtor+central+axis+Windows7#note
