I am trying to add an external cdrom to install Vista on my laptop... my laptop cdrom drive is broken... _

I have a Gateway laptop and I am trying to reinstall the Vista operating system on it.   The cd/dvd-rom has been broken for some time.  I bought an external CD-ROM cd/dvd drive today, but can not understand how to operate.  I went into the BIOS and changed the USB floppy boot order but still no luck in getting it to recognize the external cdrom drive. I change it to the correct order?

You need to check the bios as usb settings, for example to enable legacy usb or similar

  • I deleted my email account and tried to add it back, but it is said that there are already. It drives me crazy...

    I deleted my email account and tried to add it back, but it is said that there are already.

    First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

    From the Mail menu bar, you select

    ▹ Connection Doctor window

    In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

    Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

    Did you go to the HP support as suggested?  I sounds like you need to re - download the software.  Again, read "Article 1."
    What makes you think that "Active X" has nothing to do with your problems? Or are you confused 'Active X' with Adobe Reader X (for example, Adobe Reader 10)?
    What do mean 'Java Active x?  Java and Active X are two completely different technologies, Sun and Microsoft.  There is a 'Java - Active X Bridge,' but most of the users would not be involved with that.  Where did you get "Java Active X?

  • I can't Thunderbird to recognize the password for the gmail account, that I am trying to add.

    I am trying to add a gmail account to Thunderbird that already hosts several gmail accounts. No matter what I do, I can't recognize the password in Thunderbird. I admit, I was wrong a few times, but I got the right one, and it was typed in perfectly several times, as well as copy and paste. The password worked well to log on to the account directly, but not in Thunderbird. I tried to change the password, and that doesn't work anymore. I tried to add this account in Windows and Ubuntu 14.04 8.1, and the results were the same. In Ubuntu, I tried adding add another account that I needed, and which took place without a hitch. The only thing I can think is the address that I am trying to add is linked to an email address for a Web site being transferred to me which is hosted by Yahoo and his business correspondence. I tried to add the account yahoo directly, but I add the same problems with passwords, but I suspect that most of you know that it's because Yahoo is simply suck more to try to become irrelevant.

    I can't believe how quickly you help on this forum, a few seconds, you guys solved the problem and the account has been added with any other questions. People on this forum rock!

    Now I'm beginning to suspect that he indeed had to do with this first batch of bad passwords.

  • DAQmx PDM, add the external value to the log file

    Hello

    I would like to know if it is possible to permanently add an external double value to the TDMS file that is created by the DAQmx Configure logging (PDM) VI?

    Thus, for example, I collect double data of 8 channels, DAQmx, speed of 1 Hz (analog double, 1 d). I'll get these 8 values with corresponding time stamps in the TDMS file created. Is there a way to "tunnel" a double value external to the same TDMS file?

    If there is no such option, I will configure just the TDMS logging explicitly not through the DAQmx driver.

    Thank you!

    with any possibility of foor loop iteration time zero will give you a default value of reference if your reference will not be valid in this case.

  • DEXT: Error when trying to add an Orkut account.

    Hello! I am a new user DEXT, but a user of Motorola for a long time. If someone could help me with all the information, I would appreciate it because I'm looking for a solution almost a week without success.
    Well, I created my Motoblur account and added an Orkut account. Its perfect and everything works fine. But now I have to exclude this first Orkut account and add a new account. But, Motoblur do not work when I try to do this operation. Note: I'm NOT trying to add two account togheter, but REMOVE the old and ADD a new.
    When I try to add the new Orkut account, Motoblur says: "internal server error. Please, try again later ".
    I had been excluded from the old account, set up photos of the contacts to another account but Motoblur insist to get this error.
    I really need to use my new Orkut account instead of the old.
    Anyone have an idea?
    Thank you very much in advance.
