  After the test to the computer store, we have purchased a pci usb 2.0 card because we thought it was the problem of usb, but after installation of the usb hard drive adapter has failed, either.

  What could be the problem?

  Hello

  The dealer has tested the HARD drive and it worked.
  It seems the exterior works of HARD drive and can be recognized on the computer.

  In my opinion it s is not a HARD drive problem. For the most part this external HARD drive needs more power that can provide a USB port. My brother uses external USB HDD and it was delivered with a cable from USB 2. His HARD drive must be connected to the 2 USB ports on the laptop.

  I think that if you have a single USB plug cable, so you should use an external power supply for the HARD drive or try to connect it to the USB hub with external power supply.

  Maybe it will work

• Impossible to safely remove external USB HDD - ejection of mass storage device problem

  Hello

  I have a 250 toshiba external hard drive. "When I go safely remove device and click on stop, guests me that ' ejection of mass storage device problem and try later.

  Is there a reason for this? As I have heard it is dangerous to pull the cord without stopping it first.

  This happens usually when something is always access to the USB - HDD.
  Yes, it s dangerous to pull on the cable, because you can lose some data and the file system may be damaged. But if you have a situation where you need the drive to take with you and want to just get out the cable to the USB port there is a little trick to disconnect the security apparatus:

  Do right click on 'My Computer'-> click on Hardware-> click "devicemanager"-> go into "diskdrives"-> then you need to click on the drive that is your USB - HDD-> with the right button and then click on 'Properties'-> in the menu properties of this drive, you must go on "policies" and click on "optimize for quick removal"-> and then click OK and exit this menu and all-> perform a reboot-> closing information fact. :)

  After that, it s safe for remove you your drive even if it s not ejected. :)

  Hi im having trouble with my 320 GB external hard drive I bought about 2 months ago and has worked very well to the top and up to now, where it seems to want a driver who I was not provided with the hard drive because it is plug-and-play and does not connect to my computer just returns the error code 10 on all my computers can someone help me find this driver or help me with this problem out as I noticed many people seem to happen with the 250 GB and 320 GB hard drives at the moment?

  Hello

  You suggested that this drive worked properly.
  One question; have you used the option to remove USB device?

  Sometimes the USB could not recognize the USB device because the device was removed without using this option.

  Maybe this will help: go to Device Manager and remove the USB ports. After restart of the operating system to reinstall the USB ports. Then check if the USB HDD works.

• Satellite M30-604 external usb hdd boot failure

  Hello world

  Hard drive problems seem never to end for me.

  I have a satellite M30-604. Recently my Hitachi HDD crashed. Now, I am trying to boot from an external hard drive via usb, but I can't.

  (a) I use a ViPower 3.5 "(model VP9258T) enclosure external usb 2.0"
  (b) with a Seagate 200 GB hard drive.
  (c) I used the recovery cd to install windows on the seagate
  (d) the bios (v1.4) seems to support the external device to start
  (e) the internal hdd crashed is deleted (it's internal hard drive space is empty)
  (f) the bios sees the drive and recognizes it as a USB

  I think it should work, but when I turn on the computer, after a while, he says: "0201: failure IDE #0"
  and gives me the options to run the program installation or start-up.
  When I choose boot it gives me the window with "boot in safe mode" screen, 'last known good configuration' etc, but nothing of the work options (it restarts and gives the same again).

  Any ideas please?

  Hello

  My research on this subject has led me to believe that it is not possible to boot an operating system of attached USB HDD XP. I read several posts on various usenet groups on this issue, and the consensus of opinion is that it is simply not possible.

  Several suppliers of BIOS claim allow a USB HDD to be suitable for start-up purposes but I still have to attend such a machination succeed with XP.

• Satellite A300-19 q - how to start with an external USB drive

  Hi all!

  I have a (old) TOSHIBA Satellite A300-19 q bought in 2008. I wanted to do a clean install of Windows 7 by reformatting my HD. The problem is that my internal DVD drive no longer works. So I tried to boot from the Windows 7 DVD installation with an external USB drive.
  Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to boot from USB devices in my BIOS options.
  My BIOS is up to date (version 4.20) from Toshiba Web site.

  So I was wondering, does anyone know if the A300-19 q can boot from USB devices?

  Thank you in advance.

  I have A300 at home but I never tried to start with an external USB device.
  Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. There must be USB option. What happen when you try to use it?

• How to install a keyboard external usb of my laptop Gateway?

  Can't get my pad digital external usb to work on my Gateway laptop.

  It came with no software to install or instructions?  Normally, it's just a matter of connecting.  Have you tried another USB port (to make sure this isn't a problem with port)?  Try pushing the NumLock on your keyboard key and see if that will activate the numeric keypad.  You have another computer, you can try it to see if it has the same problem?  What is the manufacturer, the brand and model of USB keyboard?  Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips. Check list for a USB keyboard and click on it for more information (such as the notification that it works correctly or some other message and information on the drivers.  If you need to get pilots to leave the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

  If the above does not work, I suggest that contact your keypay USB manufacturer to see if they have device drivers for installation assistance and her.  Are you sure that this USB keyboard is compatible with your version of Vista.  See Center Compativility of Vista to http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/default.aspx and ask the manufacturer to point blank if it is compatible.

  If the people of USB keyboard do not help, then I suggest you try to contact Gateway Technical Support and see if they can help you with installation - there may be some configurations in their software (not Vista) which must be set to operate-, or they may be able to help even if it is not the case.  It's worth a try.

  What does not work, go back and see if we can come up with a few other options to try.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• PX1266E 250 GB external USB HDD - it's going to work with USB1.0

  I just bought a PX1266E 250 GB external hard drive USB need USB 2.0. My PC is quite old and has only USB 1.0. My new external hard drive works with USB 1.0?

  Usually, the USB 2.0 standard is compatible to the bottom. This means that external USB 2.0 devices are able to operate with standard USB 1.0.
  If your device supports only the 1.0 standard USB HARD drive should work, but data transfer is much lower than the USB 2.0 connection.
