  • Error: Impossible to clone the volume mounted on "/" from "ip address."

    Hi, I have a question that the title is consistent with the provisions.

    I use vmware vcenter standalone 4 running under windows xp, convert CC4 to esx3.0.2, and I assigned the IP statiic virtual machine help and dns server.

    When it operate at 98%, it turns out the title: error: impossible to clone the mounted volume on "/" from "ip address."

    I searched Google, it was said by someone, converter does not recognize the volume of software raid.but I also tried the hardware raid of CC4, the result is the same as above.

    So who can help me. I have download all the log files.

    Thank you.

    The reason is a failure, it is that tar fails after spitting on too many of these errors:

  • Impossible to mount the drive external HARD under Ubuntu Linux - file system damaged and MFT

    I get the following error when I try to mount my external hard drive on my Ubuntu.

    UNABLE TO MOUNT
    Error mounting/dev/sdc1/media/khalibloo/Khalibloo2: command-line ' mount t 'ntfs' o ' uhelper = udisks2, nodev, nosuid, uid is 1000, gid = 1000, ask dm = 0077, fmask = 0177 "" / dev/sdc1 "" / media/khalibloo/Khalibloo2 "' came out with the exit status no lame 13: ntfs_attr_pread_i: ntfs_pread failed: input/output error".

    Could not open the FILE_Bitmap inode: input/output error
    Failed to mount ' / dev/sdc1 ': input/output error

    NTFS is incompatible, or there is a hardware failure, or it's a SoftRAID(4)/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows, and then restart Windows twice. Using the /f parameter is very important! If the device is a SoftRAID(4)/FakeRAID then frst activate and mount a different device under the/dev/map/directory, (for example/dev/map/nvidia_eahaabcc1). See the documentation for 'dmraid' for more details.

    It is not mount on windows either: "i/o device error".

    This is a disk with a single partition hard ntfs

    Of course, I tried chkdsk /f. reported several file segments as unreadable, he didn't say if he fixed them or not (apparently not). also tried with the indicator/b.

    ntfsfix reported as corrupted volume.

    TestDisk was able to correct a small error with the partition table by adding the '80' for the active partition indicator (only). TestDisk also confirmed that the boot sector was very good and it corresponded to the backup. However, when you try to repair the MFT, he could not read the MFT. He could not also the list of files on the hard drive. It says file system may be damaged.

    Active @ also shows that the MFT is missing or damaged.

    I tried to replace the USB cable. Has not changed anything. I tried to update the driver. Windows reported that he was already up to date. Yes, the pilot has been activated.

    So, how can I fix the file system? or MFT? or the I/o device error?
    I used the HARD drive for months. This problem started 2 days ago. I also tried to mount it on other computers, without success.

    Hello

    I'm sorry to read about problems with your drive.
    Unfortunately, I think that the question is misplaced a bit as your case appears to be the health of your rather external HARD drive that a specific problem related to Linux.

    To add clips, if the tools you use have failed to fix your drive, then I do not think that a user 'normal' forum will no longer.
    I know it's a fine recommendation and probably just add salt in your wounds: If you really care for files, do a sector backup before doing any file system / partition own modifications.
    The reason is very simple - if the tool you use has made a mistake when judging what actions are the right ones, and submit these changes, you move your goal - and fast!
    Instead of repairing, the tool can simply corrupt data even further.
    Any subsequent change aggravates the disorder exponentially.

    Judging by the details in your message, I'm sorry to say that I think your drive is defective, or at least the data is lost.
    Of course some companies will probably be able to restore it, but that normally costs a fortune.

    Unless you are willing to spend astronomical amounts of money on data rescue, so I suggest to accept data loss and look at what you can do with the HARD drive.
    Try to format. No problem, this indicates the drive is defective and must be replaced.

    Sorry for so little help.

    Hi tomgold,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    This can also occur if an incorrect device driver has been installed for the DVD-ROM device.

    I suggest that you visit the DVD drive manufacturer site download the latest drivers for the drive and install on the computer and if it works. Make sure you download the Windows vista 64-bit driver.

  • Impossible to install the driver AMD lost correctly all the CCC and 3D options

    Hello world

    I have HP pavilion g6, win 7 64 bit. AMD Radeon HD card Intel HD graphics and 7400M.

    My problem started when my screen became black seconds much and when he comes back he said amd has stopped so I decided to update the driver.

    First, I downloaded the driver supported on the site

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-98607-2&CC=emea_middle_east...

    but whenever I try to install the installation process very quickly the screen isn't even happen during the installtion and it says driver is installed successfully, although nothing has been installed and change anything absolutely.

    So I decided to download the latest driver from amd site14.4 amd. I had some problems during the installation, but it worked fine and I got all the options, including switchable graphics. But after awhile, the laptop began to hang at startup showed a blue screen saying that something was inconsistent.

    Then I tried to update the driver in Device Manager, and since then, I've lost all control catalyst also switchable graphics mode options and 3D in photoshop doesn't work anymore and whenever I close the catalyst a message come say it has stopped working. I tried several times to uninstall the driver and then install a new versin 14.9, the previous 14.4, support, but still nothing of them worked at all, also I tried to install with win 7 compatibility but it always gets stuck. Sorry for the elongation but I am so tired of this problem. I really appreciate any help.

    Hi @Black_violet ,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked in your question HP Pavilion g6-1045sx laptop and problems with the graphics software. Here are the drivers for your device. I uninstall both and restart the computer, and then reinstall only the AMD. It will include the Amd Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center of the computer restart.

    Intel will be installed automatically.

    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Simply download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system.

    You can do a System Restore. System Restore will help if something is automatically updated and wasn't on the laptop.

    When running a system restore note remove all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices because they can cause problems.

    Please let me know how it goes.

    Thank you.

  • Impossible to download the driver (Deskjet F4580)

    Hello

    I recently bought a new laptop and am trying to install my Deskjet F4580 to use with it. The printer is connected to my network without problem as I have successfully run and print the wireless network test and network configuration pages and my laptop seems to recognize that it is there as it happens in my "devices and printers" in my control panel, however he told me that I need a driver.

    I have the installation CD, but when I use it it fails to install the driver. I put it in, follow the instructions in the wizard, the installation wizard where it is said so "of the control systems, the search for updates, download updates, application updates" then disappears completely and it stops before installation the installation is complete. He shows me a list of things it will do, including installing the driver, but he only puts out the first component before disapperaing. I don't know even why it checks updates until whatever it is has been installed.

    This process is repeated exactly the same way when I try and download the driver on the HP site, and I also tried to download the driver of basic with the same results.

    I don't know what to do as my phone tells me that I need a driver before I can use my printer, but I can't download a no matter how I try. I installed other programs on my laptop so I don't think that's the problem, and I checked that the driver is correct for my operating system (Windows 7 32-bit).

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi hkp206,

    It seems that the installation is having some problems with the updates. Is there a way to disable the updates through the beginning of the installation. Once you get to the part of the facility where he asked to accept the terms, there will be 4 lines of text in blue up, which you will be able to click on. Click on the line that says "the use of Internet connection settings." Select 'No' to all options in this window, then click on 'Ok '. Now, launch the installation and let me know if you still have the same problem.

    Hi Sameer,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description, I understand that you are getting an error code.

    I would like to know some information.

    1. You are connected to a domain network?

    2. When exactly do you get this error code?

    3. Do you also have any error message?

    This problem may occur if the print spooler service is stopped.

    To start the spooler service, follow these steps:

    1. click on Startand then click Control Panel.

    2. double-click Administrative Toolsand then click Services.

    3. double-click on the Printer Spooler service and then change the startup type to Automatic. This option sets the spooler service starts automatically when you restart the computer.

    4. If you want to start the spooler service immediately, click Start in the area of The State of the Service .

    I would also refer to the Microsoft Help Article below and check if that helps.

  • Printer HP 1120C range is listed as compatible with Windows 7, but impossible to install the driver

    I have an old HP1120C printer. HP lists as compatible, and refers to the Microsoft site. List of Microsoft confirms that the printer is compatible and no new drivers are needed. I try to load the driver and Windows 7 says that the driver is not compatible.
    What can I do?

    Hello

    Many thanks for the info Dominic.

    But y at - there no written document, which approves your statement "HP chose not to make the drivers supplied to Microsoft available for download on the HP site".

    Webpage of HP here indicates that there are drivers on Windows Update but it will not be available on HP.COM drivers.  If your printer is connected by USB then install it as shown here on the site of HP .  If you are sonnecting by the LPT port, and then follow these steps: go to the folder, devices and printers, add a local printer, use a Local Port, LPt1: (or whatever port is appropriate), then the update of Windows (from the selection in the lower right box), wait for the list to repopulate , and then select the manufacturer HP (Hewlett-Packard not) and select the printer Deskjet 1120c in the list.

    Hi Sunny,

    To better understand the issue, let me know what happens when you try to format the drive? You get the error message?

    This problem could occur if the files are hidden.

    Try the steps listed here and see if it helps:

    Method 1:
    We will check if there are all the hidden files in the player. To verify that the same as follows:

    a. open the drive that has the problem.

    b. click on the view tab.

    c. check "items Hidden."

    Check now if all the files or folders are appearing in the player.

    Method 2:
    If the problem persists, I suggest you to check if there are all the files in the drive through command prompt.

    a. press Windows Key + r

    b. type cmd and press enter.

    c. in the open prompt window, type the following commands one by one and press enter after each command.

    : (e.g. d :)

    dir

    d. This will show all the directories or folders in the drive.

    e. check for all the folders inside the car.
