I can't open a folder that has about 350 GB of data in it. It gives me an error cannot open due to IO error
I tried to do a system restore but it used to quote the error and I tried to defrag the drive but it is stuck at 10%, again citing the files error that is impossible to open the folder or recreate due to IO error.
Gina,
This is much like a directory corrupted on your hard drive. If you have not yet tried, check for errors on your hard disks with a 'chkdsk/f' Your external readers should check interactively. Your system startup disk will require a reboot of the system and will be checked offline. This is a normal maintenance procedure and should be performed periodically. Note: Large capacity disks can take hours to check.

Original title: laptop won't read the music files stored on external hard drive
I have an old Compaq laptop Windows XP, so it was out of memory I transferred everything on a Portable Seagate (500 GB) hard drive and started to access it. It's worked well for over a year, but lately, began to stop playing my music files. Absolutely everything on the hard drive opens, however, images, files and folders, but when I go into Windows Media Player, it pops up with this error message:
Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.I have not modified parameters or anything that moved. I used to be just able to restart the laptop, or disconnect and reconnect the hard drive and it works again, but now it or not will be not at all, or it will cut off half way through a song and then not to play anything more.I can't find any support for this problem because the phone reads that the hard drive is there, and everything else works. Only the music doesn't. I tried to play music on a connected USB and it works fine. I'm so confused!Hi lkm0293,Here are some articles that you might find useful: -

Lately I get the following message if poster every time that someone sends me an email with an attachment. I use to be able to display up to a few weeks before. the message is - Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.
Does anyone have an idea on how I can display these attachments?
Thanks for your help.
Hi fredleon,
· What is the email client or webmail you are using?
· What is the attachment file extension?
· How do you open the attachment?
· Is it by double-clicking or you choose open with option.
a. save the attachment to the office,
b. right-click on the file and select open with the option to open the attachment according to their file extension.
Example: If the .docx file extension, then it is word document or .pdf, it's Adobe.
You can get the extension of a file by right clicking on the file and go to properties

I can't delete a folder that was created when I downloaded DIVX. Message I get is "Destination access folder denied" any suggestions?
Try to use Unlocker to:http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml this programs often works when the normal functions of remove Vista not work correctly.
If this does not work, you need to change the permissions and ownership on the file in order to have all the rights and the property (even on the inherited rights). Then try Unlocker. Here's the information to help you do.
To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab. Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users). Here are the types of permissions, you may have:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions. You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).) Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/. To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.
To solve this problem with folders, folders takeownership or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights. Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab. Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK. Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions. Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html. To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.
I hope this helps.

Hello world
Suppose I have a table emp that has thousands of lines of data. In this table of employees receive wages between 1000-10000.
Now I have to get only the employees whose salary is equal.
for example
empNo empName sal
----------- ------------- ---------
1 ram 5000
2 5000 Shyam
3 1000 Dilip
4 deepak 2000
5 sisi 1000
6 1000 Priya
so now...
Now without using ' select * from emp where Sal IN (5000,1000). "How can I get these employees with the same salary?
SELECT *.
EMP e1
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 99 FROM emp e2 WHERE e2.sal = e1.sal AND e2.empno! = e1.empno)
or maybe
SELECT *.
WCP
WHERE sal IN (SELECT sal FROM emp GROUP BY sal HAVING COUNT (*) > 1)
