• How boot Windows Vista from a USB hard drive that has a good backup Vista already on him.

  Hi, initially, I thought I had a virus (blue screens that appear often), then I thought I had a corrupted driver or systems file. So, I had a 2 t USB external hard drive and saved ALL my internal hard drive.  After execution of all kinds of tests from my internal hard drive, it does NOT pass the diagnostic test and always stops in the same place on the internal hard drive.  It becomes harder and harder to start on my internal drive of 'C' without getting some kind of blue screen.  I'm sure that now it's my drive "C" which is declining and malfunction and I am convinced now to go forward and every time you start my existing backup Vista SP2 that I backed up on my disk 'K', or if I can, then do a new clean install of Vista 86 x (32 bit) on the disc 'K '.  My boot sequence is as follows: 1. Disc 2 DVD 3. External drive USB 'K' 4. Internal drive C (eventually when I get all fixed, I turn OFF my 'C' drive.)  When I boot my computer without my Vista disk, it bypasses the 'K' reader, because all the "loadup data" is located in a folder and are not exposed, or I don't have the files to "load" just in the right place.  When I look at the file config.sys and autoexec.bat copied, I see nothing in the files that would be "load" my existing Vista, instead he just goes right in front of the reader 'K' and on the 'C' drive and loaded a version own intalled my Vista (if I can avoid a blue screen, sometimes I have to load in "safe mode" and even) It doesn't work sometimes!)  My question is what the loadup files are needed and where on my 'K' drive (in system32?) to be able to restart my old copy of Vista which has all my existing configurations in place?  Thanks in advance for your help.

• How to transfer files from the old hard drive to a disc new hard, old hard disk has been removed?

  I had a hard disk going bad. Installed a new hard drive and the need to transfer files from the old hard drive. I have an external enclosure for the old hard drive and can connect by usb port.

  The process is fairly simple once you put the old drive in the external box. You can use the usual methods of copy and paste in Windows Explorer. If you copy files, complete folders, you can take a look at RichCopy.

• Cannot access the files from the internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead

  I can't access the files from an internal hard drive that has been converted to drive external hard after the motherboard is dead. I think that my files are still there, as shown in the volume of the player volume ~ 500 gb which is almost completely full. But I can't access most files, including documents and settings. When I took 'ownership' of the folder, I could open the TI but then it showed everything that was in my documents and settings on the computer file I used to open it, not the documents of the car.

  Uhm... I think the issue here is a misunderstanding of what you watch.

  If you want to access your files from the old hard drive - you need to look in the right place.  If the old system was "Windows 7", "Documents and Settings" is the * wrong * place to look and "Users" would be the place to go.

  You * will * take ownership and change permissions on ALL (you want to propagate to all subfolders/files when do - to save time) in order to get them properly.

  New-->: Windows Vista/7 would have your files located in the directory 'Users' of the root of the drive - and then under your username.

  • \USERS\\Desktop\
  • \USERS\\Downloads\
  • \USERS\\Favorites\
  • \USERS\\Documents\
  • \USERS\\Music\
  • \USERS\\Pictures\
  • \USERS\\Videos\

  ... etc...

  Documents and settings to WIndows Vista/Windows 7 is a symbolic link and would lead to what you see if you tried to use it.

• I bought a new computer, installed LR5 and import photos from a remote hard drive. Photos is finer, but all my Collections disappeared.  Is there a way to retrieve my Collections?

  I bought a new computer, installed LR5 and import photos from a remote hard drive. Photos is finer, but all my Collections disappeared.  Is there a way to retrieve my Collections?

  The Collections are stored in the LR catalog. If you had previously copied to your catalog on the other computer to the new all your collections would have been there.

  Now that you have the images on the new computer, 'IF', they were placed in the same folder structure (IE even the folder names and locations) then copy through the original catalogue "should" include your collections. If they are in the names of different folder or on a different drive letter or name of the player, then you might be able to use the feature to locate Images to find them.

• Portege R500 - install Win XP - no hard drive detected

  Hello

  I just bought a new Toshiba Portege R500 notebook - 12 H with Windows Vista, and I would like to format the hard drive and install Windows XP instead.

  I have a Windows XP CD (the one from my old PC), I insert the disk and start the laptop computer on the installation of the Windows XP CD to load, I get the screen asking me "push F3 to quit, entry to install XP" (as usual).
  But when I click on 'install', it says no hard drive has been detected, and I wonder if I have any additional drivers.

  How is it possible that my 120 GB HD is not detected? It is in a format that does not know Windows XP? Can I get a driver, how can I install it? Can I upgrade the bios?

  Please help me ;)

  Thanks for all,

  Missing driver SATA.
  Very good description how to prepare the CD of facilities, you can find HERE.

• Dual-boot Windows XP is installed on the external hard drive

  My computer has Windows XP and Windows 7 installed. I added a hard drive with Windows XP is already installed on the computer.

  In order to access additional hard drive, I need to change the priority of the hard drive in the BIOS.

  Is it possible to add a boot option to the Boot Manager screen so that I can boot from the additional hard disk without modifying the BIOS settings?

  First of all, to the best of my knowledge you should not change anything in the bios to access the external drive.

  Second, if Xp has not been installed on the external hard drive while the drive is connected to the computer in question it will not be loaded. Simply, it does not work like that. Even if you install Windows on the outside when it is connected to your computer, I don't think it must configure the boot.ini file, giving you the ability to dual boot when the computer is turned on. You can boot from the external drive provided however your bios supports booting from a usb key. I think that to accomplish what you want, you will need to remove the hard drive of the external envelope and attach it to your computer using an eSATA cable. Then it will be recognized as a regular system disk.

• Problem with installing Windows on a hard drive, HARD drive does not get detected after installation

  Original title: help with hard drive of the computer.

  Flow of the problem:

  My aunt tried to install windows 7 on the previous copy of windows 8. Needless to say that it doesn't work and it has messed up the hard drive. So, I bought a vacuum. I formatted the hard drive using my other windows computer to have 2 partitions: a boot partition and system partition, and then used the program WinToUSB to install windows on the hard disk. The reason I did it is, because no matter how many times I changed the BIOS in my laptop of aunts, it wouldn't boot from the DVD player to load the windows software. After a few hours, I found WinToUSB. Once windows has been installed, I plugged it into the laptop. For a few hours, I didn't know what to do, because the computer does not recognize the hard drive (he said: "Not detected"). I decided to start from legacy, and then the screen deals

  «intell...» »

  and a bunch of dates, etc all the stuff on the screen to load legacy if you know what I mean.

  He said "not plugged in the media. Check the power cord.

  Then quickly changed screen before I can read almost anything and it goes to the normal windows screen black (with 4 colors). I said to myself, how can he be loading if the hard drive is not detected... Once it is loaded, he brought me to the blue screen (blue screen of death, if you want) I turned the computer on again, always noticing the hard drive was not detected. I ran all the recovery/repair options I could and turned off the laptop. I came back a few hours ago and I loaded the computer again and went into the BIOS.  He said that the hard drive has been detected and said the news about this, as usual. However, at the start of the legacy of windows loading screen, it said still not detected.  I then started to windows to see since it is now detected if that fixes the blue screen. Yet, there is no. I tried to go to the normal windows and screen remains blue. any ideas?

  Hello Chris,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, it seems that Windows was not properly installed on the hard drive. I'm not sure how to work the software from third-party manufacturers WinToUSB and reliable installation process is. Microsoft does not recommend using any third party tool to install Windows on your computer, the use of these third-party tools can cause serious damage to your computer.

  I would say to format the hard drive once more and try to install Windows through normal Windows installation process.

  Refer to the section "using the installation option custom if no operating system is installed" in the thread below.

  Installing and reinstalling Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/installing-reinstalling-Windows#1TC=Windows-7

  If you are not able to install Windows on the hard drive at all, I suggest you to contact the hard drive manufacturer to obtain a diagnosis of material performed on the hard drive.

  Do not hesitate to write back for any further assistance with Windows, we will be happy to help you.

• HP m9340f, install a second SATA hard drive

  Hello!  I tried to install a second SATA hard drive in my m9340f without success.  It is a 2 TB SATA drive, it should be compatible, but on the power of the system will not even to the last POST.  No message screen or the BIOS errors.  When I disconnect and remove the new drive, the system is back to normal.

  Anyone have any success installing disks second in this model of HP?  This is the first record additional SATA hard I never put in a system, then am I missing a step?

  Thank you!

  Thank you all for the quick responses!

  I was able to fix this by taking two actions:

  (1) I applied an update for my BIOS.

  (2) I went to a reader from different manufacturers.  A Hitachi 2 TB drive did not work, but a Western Digital works perfectly on the first attempt.  It was with the same cable and connection of motherboard that has not worked for Hitachi.

  Please mark this as resolved issue.

  Best regards

• Can I have macbook start up from my external hard drive instead of the internal HD of the laptop?

  I use a macbook air 2014 model and would like to know if I can boot the mac from an external hard drive rather than the inside. The reason to do this is to save space on the laptop and updates can be installed directly on the external hard drive.

  Is this possible? Forgive me, because I'm not that tech savvy. Thank you in advance!

  Yes. Install or clone of Mac OS X on it and then select it in the pane of the system preferences Startup disk.

• How to install games on external hard drive applications

  Hello people,

  I have my app game downloaded from the app store called rack 2 & I transferred to my USB key. Noting that the loading of the game takes too long, I decided to transfer it to my external hard drive. After the transfer of the application of game on the external hard drive, it does not start. So, I decided to reinstall the game by downloading it again from the store, but my disk space.

  So, I have in fact TWO problems:

  (1) how can I reinstall the application to an external hard drive? and...

  (2) how to free disk space on my hard drive internal by disabling certain files on "people"?

  If someone could shed some light on me here, it would be highly appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  You should never get too low on your space of hard drive as the OS needs a minimum 10-15 GB of free space at any time to work properly. So, if you do any movie or image/photo, rendering and editing editing works best if you have at least as much vacuum you have temporary files in your project. I can easily raise 100 GB or more temp. files for a one hour film HD, so I keep a lot of empty hard disk space.

  In order to get a few things on your hard drive, the usual space hoggers are therefore, movies, photos, etc. You can move all those who in their library on an external hard drive, and after having checked they are working, delete them from your hard drive.

  Generally, the application work better if they are installed on your internal hard drive; I'm not a gamer, so I'm not familiar with the specifics of the game you're talking about.
