How can I make computer recognize a removable disk correctly? He is listed as a local disk instead.

Computer lists a removable disk as local disk (g) and the local disks (c) and (d).

It is used to correctly appear as a removable disk not a local drive.

At the same time my Optiarc DVD RW AD - 7530 ATA Device B is not recognized by the computer.

It has even disappeared from the computer and the Device Manager.

I think that the two issues are linked.

I don't know (on the contrary, I hope!) I can return the DVD player if I do a full system recovery, but which will be connected to the computer for a few days and I am reluctant to do so.

I already tried a recovery of the reading of cd/dvd of hp quickplay program, but it has not helped computer find my DVD player.

I also updated the Bios of F:08 to F:0, but nothing helped.

Can you help me to solve the problem in a more easy way?

Thank you

  • Drive on which Windows XP to reside is always labeled as a system drive. How can I make one of the other disks that has Vista or 7 that the new system?

    Change the system drive

    I'll try to explain my situation better than I can.

    My situation is that when I used to have XP installed, I had installed the only drive I had back then which is now the drive D, for a long time, so I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit, Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit installed on two different discs, Vista is installed on drive C and 7 is installed on drive E , but I don't have XP that I had managed to get rid of it.

    My problem is that the drive on which Windows XP to reside has always left this disc marked as system in the disk management window, and I was wondering how to do that one of the other readers who has Vista or 7 that the new system?

    I already managed to change the startup disk from drive where Vista is installed to, it's just that I need to change the disk that is marked as system to another drive, such as D drive begins to show signs that it comes at the end of his life and I would like to move the startup folder as well as the other files needed to start on the other.

    I assume that you installed Windows XP 1, then Vista, 7 (these 2 OS not in order)?

    And Vista and 7 was by all means upgrade installation?

    Since originally, that you have installed Windows XP on drive D, it should be marked as 'system' and retains so the tag 'system '.

    The volume of the 'system' should be identified as the first primary partition active. It may or may not have the files it contains.

    The fact that the system considers "system drive" does not mean that there are files that it contains.

    Now, you want to delete the existing volume and create a new volume. Needs to be done outside the facility.
    When you start the cd or DVD to start the installation list us readers, if you remove the volume the volume drive letter is already booked, so you get the next available drive letter, do not re-use the deleted volume drive letter.

    If he removed during installation and then recreated as a new volume (formatting does not remove the volume, you need to delete the volume and recreate it)

    -[Posted by Darrell Gorter [MSFT] in another forum.]

    Try to format the XP partition and change the drive letter.

  • How can I make the color replacement tool works correctly?

    I want to turn black to green in a chart B & w.  Here's the chart that I start by:

    celtic cross.png

    Here are the directions I followed (EP 13):

    Replacement of color

    • Select the tool, color replacement (the tool replace color is part of the Brush Tool Options bar).
    • Menu, choose a brush in the options bar. Mode, as a general rule, you'll want to keep the blending mode set to color.
    • For limits, choose one of the following:

      Batch Replaces the color sampled, wherever it occurs under the pointer of.

    Contiguous Replaces colors that are contiguous with the color under the pointer.

  • To tolerance, specify a small percentage to replace colors very similar to the pixel you click, or increase the percentage to replace a wider range of colors.
  • To give a smooth edge areas that you correct, select anti-aliased.
  • Choose the required sampling method. The available options are:

    Continues Continuous color samples, when you drag the color replacement tool.

    Once Samples of color only once, when you begin to drag the color replacement tool.

  • Background swatch Replaces the box containing the background color, whenever you drag the color on it replace tool.

  • Choose a foreground color to use to replace the unwanted color.
  • Click the color you want to replace in the image.
  • Drag the image to replace the target color.
  • And here is the result I get:

    celtic cross - green.png

    I chose very carefully the darker more deep black as the color to be replaced and all blacks should have turned to green, but only gray pixels on the edges did it.  Oh, and here's a screenshot selected as I am, even though I have tried many different combinations:

    black to green.JPG

    Help? I am a novice, so I need descriptive and explicit suggestions.  Thank you!!

    There are means other than the color tool replacement for what you want to do, which is to add color to a drawing in black or any other color.

    -First of all, use the magic wand tool to select the color (here black). You should see the "mobile dash" around the shape. Do not forget to uncheck "continuous."

    -Create a new layer while keeping the active selection (new layer in the layer Panel icon)

    -Menu Edition/fill selection"." Choose your destination color.

    The new layer now holds your shape with the color you have chosen.

    How can I make the computer sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity on the logon screen? Currently, on the login screen, white screen, but the computer is still running. Sleeping would save a lot of energy because the computer is used most of the time.

    Hi Phil.Ganchev,
     
    Using a laptop or a desktop computer?
     
    The reason for this question is, if you have a plugged AC adapter you must set power accordingly as opposed to laptop settings battery operated.
     
    I suggest you head over to the power settings and create your own power management.
     
    a. power by clicking on the Start button, open the Options click on the Control Panel, clicking system and security, and then clicking Power Options.

    (b) according to the plan you want to change, click on change plan settings.

    c. on the parameters of change in the plan page, choose "Put the computer to sleep" that you want to use when your computer is running on battery (if applicable) and when it is plugged.
    (Change in 5 minutes for the batteries and sector)

    How can I make myself clean and my computer with no other account administrator?

    Do not run as administrator on a daily basis - and in Windows 7, there is absolutely no need to do so.

    Configure a user account Standard for yourself to run on a daily basis and create an administrator account (call the Admin or something similar with a password) to use in an emergency and only for purposes of elevation.

  • How can I make sure deleted files are permantly removed from my system and non-recoverable?

    I have files that I deleted, then emptied my Recycle Bin, but I understand that these are still recoverable. They have not been sent, published or shared. How can I make sure that they are permantently deleted and not accessible from my computer. I have Windows 7 on a HP DM4 if that helps. I need simple answers because I'm a girl who is not all that computer savy. I appreciate the answers, thank you.

    It all depends on how hard you want the person you are looking for the file to work.  What you did until the preserved most of other casual users to recover files.

    If you take the hard drive to a data recovery company, they would probably still recover (unsecured) files.  You can use programs that write too much data time and time again - but even in this case, it might be salvageable.
    Government and businesses know that the only way to ensure that the files have disappeared is to destroy the drive - by crushing or it chop into pieces with a machine to grind.
