Please describe what happens when you try and what you mean by "scope of hard drive. Do you mean an external USB disk? If Yes, then you don't want to install programs on it because it will be too slow. It will be perfect to store your data, however.

  • How to install games on external hard drive applications

    Hello people,

    I have my app game downloaded from the app store called rack 2 & I transferred to my USB key. Noting that the loading of the game takes too long, I decided to transfer it to my external hard drive. After the transfer of the application of game on the external hard drive, it does not start. So, I decided to reinstall the game by downloading it again from the store, but my disk space.

    So, I have in fact TWO problems:

    (1) how can I reinstall the application to an external hard drive? and...

    (2) how to free disk space on my hard drive internal by disabling certain files on "people"?

    If someone could shed some light on me here, it would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    You should never get too low on your space of hard drive as the OS needs a minimum 10-15 GB of free space at any time to work properly. So, if you do any movie or image/photo, rendering and editing editing works best if you have at least as much vacuum you have temporary files in your project. I can easily raise 100 GB or more temp. files for a one hour film HD, so I keep a lot of empty hard disk space.

    In order to get a few things on your hard drive, the usual space hoggers are therefore, movies, photos, etc. You can move all those who in their library on an external hard drive, and after having checked they are working, delete them from your hard drive.

    Generally, the application work better if they are installed on your internal hard drive; I'm not a gamer, so I'm not familiar with the specifics of the game you're talking about. Search on Google, I couldn't find any reference to the Macs on their website - here, it shows the platforms it is compatible with:

    IM using dell inspiron 3521 windows 8 preload.  Last week, crashed my hard drive. And I have no backup of recovery disc or usb. And now I'm going to buy a new internal hard drive.

  • How to install Win7 on new hard drive and still access all the files from the hard drives of previous Vista?

    I currently have a Windows Vista PC. It has two SATA drives, one with the operating system, the one I use for storage.

    I want to buy a new SATA hard drive and install a new copy of Windows 7 top.

    I want to know the steps to follow to do this. My plan is this:

    1. turn the pc power off and open the case.

    2. remove the old hard disks

    3. plug the new empty hard drive

    4. turn on the pc and the insertion of the disc to install to Win7 for DVD-ROM drive

    5. enter in the bios and put the DVD-ROM as first boot device

    6. install win 7 on new hard drive.

    Is this correct?

    Because my next question is important:

    7. Turning off the computer.

    8 reconnect the two old hard drives. New total number of SATA drives connected = three.

    Now when I restart the PC and login to Win 7, it lists two other drives as, for example, D:\ and E:\ readers?

    How can I make this work?

    Thank you very much!

    Thanks for your reply, but I don't want to dual boot. I just want to have the hard drive as the master drive Windows7 and the old two drives as slaves, where I can access files as the pictures and letters.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Well, I would disconnect all drives hard current interns, then connect the new hard drive, reinstall Windows 7, re - attach the old readers as slaves and copy all the data you need to on the disc of Windows 7.

  • Portege R100 - how to install after Exchange of HARD drive?

    Hello world
    I'm new to this forum and I want to know exactly where I'm wrong. I have this portege r100 laptop and the hard drive gave a few days ago. Because I am a novice when it comes to computers, I left the laptop with an engineer, that I found on Kijiji.
    Unfortunately, the engineer could not load any operating system on it. I go through this forum and loads found useful answers, but alas, still the same problem.
    Could someone guide me in the right direction. I would be really grateful that I have exams coming next week and really need the laptop.

    I don't have any CD-ROM compatiable only an external floppy drive.
    I tried to install using the windows startup disk (x 6 downloaded from the microsoft Web site), but after the 6 disc it asks me 3 options.

    1. press ENTER to install
    2. recovery console option of
    Output 3.F3

    When I press on enter is not superimposed my cd rom which I figured out is not compatiable. If I leave the connected cd rom it says unmountable boot disk. It gives me a bsod. Is there another way, I could install the operating system using only the FDD.
    I'd appreciate it really all the help of the experienced members of this forum.
    Thank you.

    First of all, you can not use any external CD/DVD drive... you must use a compatible and recommended by Toshiba.

    Secondly, I you could try to connect the HARD drive to another computer using the USB caddy.
    Then copy the i386 to the HARD disk folder.
    Then, you can run the winnt.exe file to start the Setup program.

    Once configuration is complete plug the HDD to the Portege and tries to start
    It is only theory, but maybe it won't work

  • How to install on a second hard drive Studio 2.1 VMware PVSCSI (model Ubuntu)?

    Hello

    I have a model that built a virtual machine based on Ubuntu 8.04.1 which makes already successfully using vmxnet3 driver.

    I also like to use PVSCSI as a non bootable SCSI for a hard drive controller second defined in this virtual machine.

    Since this is something that can be manually configured in vSphere 4.0 on an existing VM Linux Client, I wonder if this can be done by manually editing the .xml (like the vmxnet3 method) model described in tips & tricks VMware Studio.

    According to the results presented by the VMware Performance team with PVSCSI controller, it would be great to set it automatically in VMware Studio model.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Concerning

    To use PVSCSI, please note the following:

    - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1012510

    - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1010398

    Studio 2.1 would not be able to build devices with PVSCSI. Nevertheless, here are some settings, you could consider to apply the PVSCSI in the output devices built by Studio:

    For example, I used Studio to build a RHEL 5.4 VMS and the exit is located in opt/vmware/www/build/r54.1/exports/ovf.

    1 edit r54_OVF10.ovf, find the desired item from SCSI controller and replace his rasd:ResourceSubType of free to VirtualSCSI (case sensitive).

    2. as a r54_OVF10.mf to accompany him, the sha1sum of r54_OVF10.ovf in the .mf file must be updated.

    3. If you had the signed OVF (i.e. as there is a r54_OVF10.cert in my case), the FVO will also have to be re-signed (whether by/opt/vmware/bin/signovf or your own signature utility).

    And that's all. This rule changed OVF when it is deployed to ESX 4.0 U1 or great would show her as a Paravirtual VMware SCSI controller. This is obviously not a solution supported; Please use and test accordingly.

  • Whenever I have to play the game, I have to insert the disc 2 in my DVD ROM despite installing the game on my hard drive.

    Hello

    Whenever I have to play the game, I have to insert the disc 2 in my DVD ROM despite installing the game on my hard drive.
    Can someone help me with a cure for this (IE run the game without the CD?) I can run Microsoft Flight simulator without inserting the DVD in my DVD-rom.

    original title: query on Microsoft Train Simulator 2001

    I suspect that the game has Digital Rights Management in there (i.e., copy protection) and it checks for you ensure that you physically have the disc so that he knows that you are not a thief.  Many providers of game assumes that you are a thief and you prove that you're not demanding that the disc is in the DVD player when the game takes place.  What I do is to use a program like Alcohol 52%, a free program that can make a copy of a DVD/CD and include in the image copy protection so that you can use a DVD player virtual to mount the image file instead of having the real DVD mounted in a real drive.

  • Portege R500 - install Win XP - no hard drive detected

    Hello

    I just bought a new Toshiba Portege R500 notebook - 12 H with Windows Vista, and I would like to format the hard drive and install Windows XP instead.

    I have a Windows XP CD (the one from my old PC), I insert the disk and start the laptop computer on the installation of the Windows XP CD to load, I get the screen asking me "push F3 to quit, entry to install XP" (as usual).
    But when I click on 'install', it says no hard drive has been detected, and I wonder if I have any additional drivers.

    How is it possible that my 120 GB HD is not detected? It is in a format that does not know Windows XP? Can I get a driver, how can I install it? Can I upgrade the bios?

    Please help me ;)

    Thanks for all,
