  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.

• You are looking for a SIMPLE, EASY to USE, USB flash drive password protection

  Hello everyone,

  I scoured the Internet looking for a SIMPLE, EASY to USE, method of Word to PASS-PROTECT my flash drives TOGETHER.  I don't mean something that protects just individual files & folders (such as MS Word, Excel & can do).  Or I'm looking for a program that involves having to read page after page of instructions on how to ENCRYPT the drive.  ENCRYPTION is a topic that is really beyond my ability to understand.  I'm sorry.

  Programs like Truecrypt, Axcrypt, etc. are simply much too complicated for me to understand... a lot less!

  My question: are there flash drives available (size 8-16 GB preferably) who have a means of securing the disk with a password?

  The USB key remains in my USB port at ALL times!  I have no other computers here and live alone, so that no one else could access the flash player (or computer).  Otherwise, I would be willing to consider a VERY SIMPLE, EASY to UNDERSTAND AND USE application, either free or something that does not cost me dearly.  (I subsist on a limited monthly disability income).

  Thank you for your time and any recommendations!

  It seems that the solution for you would be to purchase a secure Flash drive.   Security is built-in and it asks for your password when you insert your disc into the computer.   Can't get much simpler than that.  They are a little more expensive, but you pay more for practical reasons.   See the following article:
  'USB Flash Drive Security '.
     <>http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_flash_drive_security >
  To find one, just Google for "Secure USB flash drive", there are a lot of them out there.

  If you have a non-secure flash drive and do not want to replace, then your easiest option would be a program like Truecrypt which you already have reduced as being too complicated.  Don't let the word"encryption" you scared - it all comes down to "enter a password to access".»  Once established, however, it is almost as simple as only to enter a password so if you can find a computer or a local high school computer nerd literate member of the family who would volunteer to set up for you, then it wouldn't be that hard.

• How much GB can have a USB flash drive?

  I don't know about you, but I think 256GB is the largest available
  today. But who knows what tomorrow will bring.

  And 256 GB flash drives are expensive enough that, at least as the flash
  the tiny size of the drive is more important, you may want to consider a
  256 GB (or more) external hard drive instead.

• Pavilion dm1 making has defined using USB Flash drive recovery

  I have a Pavilion dm1 for which I tried to create a set of recovery using a USB key.  However, the Recovery Manager starts, I find I can only use discs... but the Pavilion dm1 has NO disk drive and no Center so burn discs! Am I wrong to be completely intrigued by this?  Does anyone have one idea at all, other than to buy an external disk drive that I really don't want to do?  HP will sell me an ONLY ON DISC Set Recovery but once again! It seems absurd that a piece of equipment that has no disk drive will be able to be retrieved using a disc!  I confess to being a little computer illiterate, so maybe I'm missing something.  Any help most graciously accepted.

  This utility should be able to create a USB stick recovery provided that the recovery partition is functional (it's more than likely).

  Let me know what happens.

• Does anyone has installed ESX 3.5 on a USB Flash drive?

  Hello

  I read some comments on how to get ESXi on a USB Flash drive, but I wonder if the same thing is possible with ESX 3.5?  The reason why I ask is that many of our ESX servers are wired directly into our DS/4700 IBM SAN for their data warehouses and we currently have local disks for the operating system itself.  Cost-mindedly, it would be wonderful if we can just install ESX operating system on a flash drive $15 (which would never be deleted you mind) as opposed to hard drives IBM overpriced or the boot-from-SAN.  The thought of having an identical set also to go with our identical to our disaster recovery site hardware is also very attractive. If someone could provide an answer on this, I would be very grateful.  Thank you!

  -John

  If you ask if it is possible, yes it's possible.  Incorporated just means it is preinstalled on removable media (usually a flash drive, but it's the same thing).

  With regard to the instructions, google it.  There are a LOT of messages.

• cannot get rid of the "removable disk" in "my computer" and "Device Manager", after incorrectly removing a USB flash drive

  I stupidly, twice - after using USB flash drives - just shot when he in fact without removing them properly. Now, they are listed at all times in my 'Device Manager' and in 'my computer '. I went into Device Manager and tried to uninstall them. It seemed to work but the next time I booted up Vista found drivers and now they are back in 'my computer' and Device Manager. This does not seem to be a problem, but I would like to get rid of them.

  How to install a program from a flash drive, downloaded from the old system of XP on Vista?

  If you literally just copied the program files, then paste it into the program on vista files and try to run it. It may not work because he might miss the registry keys, that he needs, but if she didn't absolutely need these keys to run, it will probably work very well.
