Installed a Win7 on a new disk of 1 TB recognizes only the 500 GB.

Replace a 500 GB drive in a laptop with a new 1 TB drive. Reinstalled Win7 Home prem on the new drive. After reloading of programs and files, I noticed that there are only 500 GB available. Windows did not offer a partiton questions I assumed that it used 1 TB all as a single partition. How can I get my additional 500 GB?

No, there is no limit of 500 GB, I installed Windows 7 on disks 1 to many times.

  • Time Machine the new disk transfer has not moved all the time

    I have a Time Machine backup to an external drive. It works very well. However, he was beginning to run out of space, so I bought a new, bigger HD.

    I followed all the steps of Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support.

    I then waited 12 hours for that copy.

    Around midnight, I noticed the copy is complete. There was a message that iWork had not been copied because he needed a different operating system. But I rejected. There are no other messages.

    I changed the Time Machine preferences on the new disk. And fell asleep.

    This morning, I walked into a Time Machine.

    Only the first date from July 2014, was on the new disc of TM. Then there was five times after midnight when the new drive was saved.

    But there is nothing in any of the years between the first date and after midnight.

    I know that there are hundreds of TM captures on the original disc. And I've used them very well.

    I tried to copy individual files from the old drive to TM to the new, but it is not possible to "change the backups."

    What should do?

    While in Time Machine, to see all the volumes mounted shift - command - c.    Information derived from Linc Davis.

    If this does not work, try to copy the file to disk/restore utility using to copy the backup to a new location. Please note that this will reformat the destination partition.

    Thank you

    Low

    You are right on all three counts indictment with the exception of having to format the hard drive before installing the operating system. Depending on what software you used to format your hard drive, you may encounter some problems with the installation. Best practice in my opinion, is you insert the XP installation cd into the optical drive recommended, restart your computer and follow the prompts.

  • I have more than one firewall installed product. How I can for deleete all and keep only the MSN Firewall?

    I got like Norman antivirus programs and now I move to Msn essintials. but the computer turned out to be very slow. I scanned the computer with the MacAfee Scan more and I got a message that I have more than one firewall installed, product that could create problems on my Pc I have bleive that I only have widows Firewall now. but the analysis said the contrarey.

    (1) using a router?  They usually have a firewall.

    2) go to control panel and click on security.  Click the down arrow next to firewall and windows will tell you what is running

    (3) you could also look in Control Panel > programs and features for the firewall software like McAfee, ZoneAlarm, or any that you have previously installed.  You can uninstall then from there.  Use the Norton uninstaller to remove the software and/or the traces that were left during uninstall.

    http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docURL=20080710133834EN&LN=en_US

    If the computer is slow, check programs and features for applications that are installed but you never or rarely use.  Uninstalling those who help you in speed.  And if you go in program files, search for files left behind from applications already installed.  If more than six months, it is safe to remove them.  Remove temporary files, run disk cleaner, empty the trash, defrag your unit.

  • Reference Dell T620 recognizes only 4 of 8 hard drives installed

    I bought 7 additional 2 TB drives for my Dell PowerEdge T620, delivered with just 1 such disk is almost a year now.  My model has 8 bays of HARD drive in front and after the installation of 7 new disks that I note that only four drives in the top row of the berries are recognized by THE system BIOS.  I'm running Ubuntu Server 12.04.4 and deliverance 'fdisk-l' lists only four disks, as well (sda, b, c, d).  I hope to set up the disks in a RAID 6 configuration if I can get the system to see eight - is it a simple BIOS setting change?  Please tell me that I don't need another controller or similar?  If it can help on the side of the Dell Support of things, my ST is deleted by the privacy policy.  Kind regards

    Mark D.

    In order details, Service number, listed only one RAID controller is the S110 RAID controller onboard.  The S110 is the lower-end controller you can get.  IF you are still using the controller, then the problem is your controller only supports a maximum of 4 disks, AND it does not support RAID 6 (only 0,1,5,10). You should use the H700 for a storage system like that anyway (or the H310 minimum).

    If you actually have a high-end controller, then you are very probably absent the second cable SAS controller to the bottom of basket.

  • How to install Win7 on new hard drive and still access all the files from the hard drives of previous Vista?

    I currently have a Windows Vista PC. It has two SATA drives, one with the operating system, the one I use for storage.

    I want to buy a new SATA hard drive and install a new copy of Windows 7 top.

    I want to know the steps to follow to do this. My plan is this:

    1. turn the pc power off and open the case.

    2. remove the old hard disks

    3. plug the new empty hard drive

    4. turn on the pc and the insertion of the disc to install to Win7 for DVD-ROM drive

    5. enter in the bios and put the DVD-ROM as first boot device

    6. install win 7 on new hard drive.

    Is this correct?

    Because my next question is important:

    7. Turning off the computer.

    8 reconnect the two old hard drives. New total number of SATA drives connected = three.

    Now when I restart the PC and login to Win 7, it lists two other drives as, for example, D:\ and E:\ readers?

    How can I make this work?

    Thank you very much!

    Thanks for your reply, but I don't want to dual boot. I just want to have the hard drive as the master drive Windows7 and the old two drives as slaves, where I can access files as the pictures and letters.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Well, I would disconnect all drives hard current interns, then connect the new hard drive, reinstall Windows 7, re - attach the old readers as slaves and copy all the data you need to on the disc of Windows 7.

    Hello

    I recently bought a 275 GB SDD to replace a Go 520 crushed SATA HDD. Because I don't have a recovery disk created, I ordered the HP Win 8.1 recovery disks. I followed the instructions and the Disk 1 formatting process completed successfully and I was prompted to insert disk 2. At this stage the process crashes after the dvd player starts rotating. Nothing I o will cause the process to continue.  The problem is the size of different readers?

  • RESOLVED: Loop of reboot after installing new disks in RAID of PERC S100

    A customer has a Dell T110 (with a PERC S100 RAID controller) running Windows 2008 R2. The system has two disks: a reader not RAID (C :) running the operating system and a RAID1 drive (E :) sharing data with network folders.) We need to install again, larger disks for the RAID.

    I thought I could backup the data on the RAID drive existing (e), install new disks, built a new table in the S100 (VDM) virtual disk boot manager, boot into the operating system, create the new partition for the data replaced E: drive and copy the data back. This was not the case. After installing the new disks and the new array of construction (which is reported as "READY (R/W)" when starting, Windows starts all the way in "press CTRL-ALT-DEL to log". After two or three seconds, the system reboots. The same thing happens when I try to start safe mode. The system IS NOT automatically booted to the Recovery Console. He never seems to know that an error occurred and the system was not shut down normally.

    I booted into the Recovery Console, installed the drivers for the PERC S100 and run recovery to start without success. Also in the Recovery Console, I ran 'chkdsk /f E:\. ' (remarkably, the drive letter for the data drive remained the same), and no error has been reported. I also reinstalled drivers S100 of the recovery using DISM Console, but that changed nothing.

    I started to 8.1 Windows PE, installed drivers S100, formatted the virtual disk, copied the data which he, and everything works fine. The only problem is when I try to boot from the system drive (which has no problem) with the new installed disks.

    When I put the old records, the system boots normally with no reconfiguration required. The VDM to start automatically remembers the discs and the table. Nothing shows up in the logs event indicating that there was an error during startup. (Ntbtlog.txt) start-up newspaper, after several boots with the new drives in place, indicates that the system restarts at various times during loading drivers. There is nothing coherent in the startup log to indicate what the problem is.

    The only clue I have is that, during the startup, the VDM reports the virtual drive of origin as 'NORMAL (R/W)' and the new virtual disk as "READY (R/W)", but I'm not sure of the significance of this difference or if it suggests a solution.

    I can't find clues in all the newspapers about what may be the problem. If anyone has any suggestions, I will be grateful. I'll be especially grateful for the wacky suggestions.

    I ran it. Nothing appeared unusual. However, I does not solve the problem.

    I connect the new readers to the same SATA ports as the old records. When I connect one of them to the SATA port that had not been used as part of the original painting, the VDM S100 reported the original failed array, because readers were is more connected and showed the new table as a LOAN. The operating system then started normally.

    The trick, it seems that you should remove the old virtual disk before connecting the new disks on the same ports.
