• Get the old hard drive to work on the new processor

  I am a PC Tech company with problems on PC at home.

  My Win 7 Home Premium Dell Studio T435/9000 dead.  It was a motherboard problem, I chose not to replace the CPU/Mo with a duplicate.  The hard disk MBR is good, I could read it and when I installed in an Optiplex 990 at work, it is initialized.

  I had the chance to receive a new Dell T5610 with 2 CPUs of a parent.  It came with professional Win7 preinstalled on an SSD, UEFI boot on a GPT disk.  But all my apps are absent and even a rat-pack obsessives like me do not have all the CD and install the files for the various applications on the old hard drive.

  I want to use my old hard drive on the new PC, then after that it's stable, migrate the old hard drive to the SS disc supplied with the PC.

  First problem was to learn the differences between MBR and GPT.  After this was learning that Home Premium does not work on a PC with two separate processors.  I use Win7 professional for that.  With the help of this forum, I was able to do this by using the Optiplex 990.  I run Win7 Professional on the Optiplex 990.

  I take the former home of hard disk go BIOS to legacy.  Old hard drive that boots on 990, does not start on T5610.

  I try various advanced options, safe mode, low-resolution video, nothing works.  I get a BSOD is a hard drive error, STOP 040000007 B.

  I try Startup Repair tool and get the following:

  Problem event name

  Offline Startup Repair

  1 6.1.7600.16385

  2 6.1.7600.16385

  5 Autofailover

  6 1

  7. bad driver

  6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 OS version

  Locale 1033

  How can I get my old hard drive to work with the new processor.  Is it a question of Dell, a Win7 Office.  As the hard drive starts up successfully on another CPU, I believe that the hard drive is good.

  Thank you very much for your help!

  Thanks to you all.  But the solution was completely different.

  Dell said the motherboard on the accuracy was so different from my old PC that unless I reinstalled Win7 Professional from scratch on the old hard drive, motherboard would not work with the old hard drive.

  They have guaranteed that the old hard drive would work on a 8700 XPS.  After some problems, I managed to do the work.  Problem solved.

• Hard drive partition and install the new operating system

  HY,

  If I partition my hard drive and I install a new OS (E.g. Ubuntu 14.04) my warranty ends?

  Thank you

  SA

  Hello

  No, it will not void the warranty but HP only supports the problems with the original operating system and prove the operation of the equipment of the original OS.

  Do the recovery disks and keep them safe before so that you could go back to factory settings if there is no problem of partitioning.

  Recovery partition usually works after partitioning, depends on your luck, but you could make the 'Active' Partition in disk management and try for recovery if it works or not.

  Thank you

• Cannot read the old laptop hard drive attached again, says disk needs to be formatted

  Original title: hardware device

  I am trying to up load my old laptop the laptop to my new computer hard drive so that I can access my old files, but it is endlessly with need to format the new device this will clear all data? It only allows me to open the old hard drive at all? Please help I really need to have access to my old hard drive through my new laptop I have no other way to get the information out.

  Hello

  Yes if you format the drive it erases it's clean. Did you put the drive in the computer as the 2nd disc
  If the computer still starts off the coast of its original disk? It's easier to do on a desktop.

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
  Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or another USB
  readers. Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data. (This can be done with the player in the)
  original laptop. If the drive is viable (not totally dead).

  Use Ubuntu Live CD to backup files from your Windows computer dead
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/use-Ubuntu-Live-CD-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-Windows-computer

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  The reader might have been damaged and may not be easily accessible. There are professional
  companies that can recover data off a dead drive if it is a costly process.
  Check with a real computer store (one that makes its own service in the House and no leeks)
  and displays a Best Buy or other stores) or system manufacturer support.

  I hope this helps.

• Move a computer virtual to one external hard drive to another... one is accessed remotely

  The external hard drive which has my VM on it has always attached to my MacBook Pro via a firewire cable.  Recently, I bought the latest version Apple Time Capsule, which I use as a router.  I have attached my external hard drive from VM to the router, but I've found that Fusion works very slowly in this way.  When I tried to reconnect the external hard drive to the laptop directly again, Fusion starts but some files could not be found and I continued to get the guests on that wouldn't go away and let me click in the window of Fusion.  The only way it works now to use the hard drive in the configuration router.  This is the address that my MacBook Pro wants to see.  Even then, things are not quite right.  So... has decided I should just move my VM from external HDD (when it is connected to the router) on a new external hard drive that plugs directly into the laptop. The transfer is so slow... He told me to expect to wait hours 219.  Help!  How I comment j' ai I stop all this and just connect the hard drive with my VM it directly in the Mac, to operate and move them where I want to move?

  Thank you

  Michelle

  Hello

  Basically, you can just copy the entire virtual machine to the new hard drive and run it from there. There is not much more than that, but you need to stop your VM (not hang) before performing the copy.

  However, there is a chance that you will have to make some small adjustments, but it depends on how your virtual machine has been implemented.

  When I tried to reconnect the external hard drive to the laptop directly again, Fusion starts but some files could not be found and I continued to get the guests on that wouldn't go away and let me click in the window of Fusion.

  UH... without we say what these some files are not found, we cannot be a great help. The first thing to try is to attach the vmware.log of your virtual machine file when you try to do this again.

• Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!

  Ugggh.  I have a 27-inch iMac late 2011 and the hard drive was updated with a new SSD.  The integrated cd/dvd had to be taken out.  I then bought a thought of superdrive, it should work.  It's frozen on my iMac!  Gee, who could have possibly guessed that would happen?  I tried all kinds of silly workarounds, I found on the internet, but still it will not register the stack of DVDs and other discs I have.

  If you're like me and upgraded your iMac that came with a cd/dvd drive internal... so he has to come out to give way to the fusion or the SSD drive, do NOT buy the apple superdrive.  It will work with your computer!

  Think I'll get a laptop samsung...

  Ironic, isn't it? Own Apple SuperDrive will not work with Apple computers. Shame you don't check here first that we would have warned you. Return Apple overpriced and buy a nice third-party player for a third of the price. I love the LG units. You can consider a loading plate because they are more reliable, and you can use these pesky disc when you get one.

  My laptop is running out of space so I need to transfer the games mainly from my laptop on an external hard drive.   What are the steps to achieve this?

  Go to computer stores, get an external hard drive of 1 TB capacity. Ask for one that you can just simply copy and paste to transfer files.

  I have a. Digital WD Elements. 1 TB vapacity. It works very well. No action of fancy, complicated to transfer, just copy and paste or drag and drop files.

  I also use it to make Sysytem Image backup.
