  External USB hard drives lose its connection and work stoppages.

  History

   
  Windows 7 Ultimate - 64-bit
  I installed it on a HP Pavilion, OS, 64-bit, and I have this problem.
  People report that it does not occur with Windows 7 32 bit OS.

  Problem:
  Any brand of external hard drive USB (and other USB devices sometimes) lose its connection and stops working only when copying large files internal drive to external USB drives.
  The USB device may appear to work properly when Windows first starts, but later stops working (crashes computer) after the start of large files to copy. You must restart Windows for the USB is working again.
  This only occurs when you copy files large files to THE USB port, not on the internal drive. It happened when I synicing my IPhone with Itunes when it started the synchronization of music files.

  According to the suggestions I have:
  1) updated the BIOS from the websites of the manufacturers.
  (2) power management disabled on the USB hub for disks
  (3) ensure that the BIOS for Legacy USB is set to.  I don't have this option in the BIOS settings.
  (4) this is not a motherboard problem, it is located on three different MB that we use.
  Also tried three different USB drives and different cables.

  Because I tested with two different computers updated and USB drives, our opinion is that this problem indicates that the Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

  Someone knows a solution?

  Hello 88feederups, apparently, your only recourse is to press F-7 to continue and see if the system boots to the desktop.

  If you manage to get to the desktop, I suggest trying to backup your important data and make sure you have a version of Windows XP. You must also consider finding a new hard drive.

  The failed Test Smart can be a reason for the hard drive do not completely, if not already.

  Here is the link for the specifications of your system and it shows the system comes with a hard drive of 160 GB Ultra DMA.

  It is a type IDE ATA hard drive and not the new kind of Sata.

• 320 external USB HARD drive won't boot

  Hello!
  After working fine for 5 months, my disk 320 external HARD USB is now showing that it is not initialized. When I go to disk management and click to initialize it, it won't boot. Can someone tell me how to make this work? I'm sure I'll have to format too, but can't find any way to make that without initializing the HARD drive first.
  Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Try removing the USB ports in Device Manager. After restarting again the USB ports should be recognised again.
  Then again connecting the external HARD drive.

  The second possibility is to use an external USB hub with an additional power supply.
  It is possible that the HARD drive needs more energy than the 500mA

• NB100 - How can I reinstall OS from USB flash drive

  My laptop TOSHIBA NB 100 has no CD-DVD player.
  Operating system is Windows XP Home SP2.

  Operating system won't start.

  Laptop start not at all so I can't run any kind of test when I turn it on.

  The thank you screen come on it says launch safe mode, the networking of safe mode, safe mode comand prompt or start windows normally. But no matter who I chose, that it does not start it only goes to Windows and looks like its starts but then shows the blue Windows screen & stays there.

  So I want to reload Windows from my USB flash drive.
  The BIOS boot sequence is the USB HDD - FDD - FD - CD memory.

  What are the steps for loading Windows USB flash drive?

  If that does not work then I want to connect another laptop with Windows CD in the CD - DVD drive laptop.
  Will this work? The laptop will use the Windows CD in the drive of the laptop to load the operating system?
  How to make this connection?

  Hello

  You usually have an external USB CD/DVD drive to boot from the Windows XP disc or the Toshiba recovery disc.

  But there is a method that allows you to install Win XP using the 2 GB USB key.
  This is possible because the NB100 BIOS supports booting from USB key.

  Pease check this Web page:

• How boot Windows Vista from a USB hard drive that has a good backup Vista already on him.

  Hi, initially, I thought I had a virus (blue screens that appear often), then I thought I had a corrupted driver or systems file. So, I had a 2 t USB external hard drive and saved ALL my internal hard drive.  After execution of all kinds of tests from my internal hard drive, it does NOT pass the diagnostic test and always stops in the same place on the internal hard drive.  It becomes harder and harder to start on my internal drive of 'C' without getting some kind of blue screen.  I'm sure that now it's my drive "C" which is declining and malfunction and I am convinced now to go forward and every time you start my existing backup Vista SP2 that I backed up on my disk 'K', or if I can, then do a new clean install of Vista 86 x (32 bit) on the disc 'K '.  My boot sequence is as follows: 1. Disc 2 DVD 3. External drive USB 'K' 4. Internal drive C (eventually when I get all fixed, I turn OFF my 'C' drive.)  When I boot my computer without my Vista disk, it bypasses the 'K' reader, because all the "loadup data" is located in a folder and are not exposed, or I don't have the files to "load" just in the right place.  When I look at the file config.sys and autoexec.bat copied, I see nothing in the files that would be "load" my existing Vista, instead he just goes right in front of the reader 'K' and on the 'C' drive and loaded a version own intalled my Vista (if I can avoid a blue screen, sometimes I have to load in "safe mode" and even) It doesn't work sometimes!)  My question is what the loadup files are needed and where on my 'K' drive (in system32?) to be able to restart my old copy of Vista which has all my existing configurations in place?  Thanks in advance for your help.

• Mounting external USB Hard Drive to work as. Storage of ISO

  Hi all

  I'm new to VMWare and my Unix skills are really rusty, but I hope someone can help me with the following:

  I'm under vSpehere ESXi 5.0 andI want to install several comments on this host operating systems.  I have all the OSes different comments on an external hard Drivwe that is formatted with NTFS.  I would like to mount my external hard drive on the VMWare host and then mount an individual. ISO for the installation of a new virtual machine.  Can anyone help?

  Thank you, Brad

  So that when you connect the USB to your computer when you run the Client vSphere you cannot navigate to the drive?

  When you create the yoo VM can have the virtual cd-rom on your local cd or search for an ISO image on the local machine you. See section 4 of the http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.ICbase/PDF/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-50-virtual-machine-admin-guide.pdf especially starting on page 42

  One thing also emphasize is your ESXi host will not be able to read an NTFS volume.

• New computer, files are on old, external USB hard drive, impossible to get LR2 to recognize

  Installed LR2 on my first iMac 2 years ago and together towards the top so all my live photos on my external USB drive.  Bought my new computer, re-installed LR2, plugged my original HD USB and I can not get LR2 to look at the files.

  I looked around in the help and deleted my new computer HD library folder.  Now, when I start it, it asks me

  

  All my photos are on my USB HD (I can see them in the Finder), but I really don't want to have to re - import into LR2 again.

  Thank you!

  OS 10.6.7

  Intel i7 iMac

  You must find the catalog that LR has worked with before you change computers.

  You see, LR cannot 'see' image files that are on a hard drive, unless you have the catalog to go with these images.

  For LR to work, you must always two things: the image files and the catalog (and your previews).

  So where is the catalogue? Best way to go about this would be:

  Connect the external hard drive to your old computer and open LR. Go to Edition > catalog settings > general Tab. Select "every time I left LR'.

  Close LR and the backup dialog box will appear that allows you to choose a save location. Select your external hard drive as the location.

  When LR finished the backup, connect the external hard drive to your new computer. In your operating system, go to the backup location and double-click the file with the ending "lrcat.

  LR opens with this catalogue, and if you have not changed the location and/or the name of your image files or picture files he will find the images.

  WW

  PS: Make sure that the external hard drive on the new computer has the same letter drive, as it had on the old computer. If it does not have the following:

  In the Libarary Module, you should see question marks in addition to your files. Right click on the folder that is higher in the hierarchy and point LR to the location of this folder on your hard drive.
