Maching time keeps failing - bought new hard drive and still the same problem
I'm on a mac 27 inches, El Captain 10.11.2 upgrade
Not had a problem for years and then suddenly about a month or two before, he started to do all the time. Got a mybook 2 TB for mac for Christmas - same problem. Works perfectly for hours/days at a time, and then fails again. Don't know what to do!
I know it sounds weird, but I would like to start by making sure that your Mac hard drive is correct. Demarrer start on the recovery environment, run disk utility and perform first aid on your hard drive. You can also perform a boot secured, which does essentially the same thing.
I also saw problems with USB devices that appear only on a specific USB port. Try changing ports.
The external drive is new does not mean that it is not defective. Perform first aid on the external hard drive and reformat. Better still, try another drive altogether to eliminate the drive as the source of the problem.

When you use href="file://f://myfile.ext' it will open fine in Firefox 3.6.8. However, I wish NOT hard code hard drive and use the location of the same player if my html file that calls this href link.
I tried to use href="file:///myfile.ext" and it does not work. I get an error message saying file not found.
For ie browser I can just specify href = "" / myfile.ext "and it works very well."
This is a simple html file that refers to several local files and I have everything on a usb key (IE my F drive). The memory stick will be sent to several people and their USB can be another letter.I found a solution to my problem. Found I could just specify

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.

Hi, I hope I'm in the right forum! I have a laptop Aspire with Photoshop CS5 extended. The computer's hard drive crashed and so I had to get another hard drive! Obviously as the hard drive crashed, I was unable to disable CS5 extended before the crash. I have it charging on the new hard drive and in the meantime bought a desktop computer in which I loaded CS5. Updates have been working fine on the laptop. I tried to update the program on the new computer, but continue to receive error messages. I have read in any problems and think maybe computer laptop harddrive that crashed had CS5 yet on it, as I was unable to turn it off because I didn't know he was going to crash. I am only able to load CS5 on 2 computers and if it is still on the destroyed hard drive so I'm not able to turn it off and so I presume that is why I can not download the updates on my new computer. I hope someone can help me. I want to keep CS5 on both computers. Thanks in advance bunch Kara

Problem with new HARD drive and Qosmio Player installation
Hi all
I hope someone can help, I had my Qosmio for 2 1/2 years now and recently had a problem with the hard drive. I decided to replace the hard drive, because it was the fastest solution. The problem I have now is that I can't receive TV on media center. I tried to install qosmio player at the disk to see if it made any difference, but when I run the provided recovery disc software tells me that there is not enough disk space! The laptop came with a 60G hard drive and the new HARD drive manufactured by the same manufacturer is a 150 GB, can someone help me out with this would be appreciated.Thank you
ED.Have you tried to install Qosmioplayer initially, then on operating system? If I remember well, on this first portable Qosmio, it was very important to install Qosmioplayer initially.

Hello, my parents computer came RAM volume0 has failed and not be able to start. We went and brought a new hard drive, and its always say the same thing. Any ideas?
A message on the RAID 0 volume failed is a recognizable error message, but the news is not good.
RAID, by its nature, requires 2 or more drives. RAID = redundant Bay of independent (or inexpensive) disks
RAID 0 is the worst of the different RAID choices. It increases the performance of hard disk by spreading or striping, data on two disks so that he can read and write more quickly. Unfortunately, such a picture offers no protection of data - in fact, it increases the chances of loss of data since the failure of a disk in the array results in the loss of all data on both drives. RAID 0 configurations are standard on high-end and PCs graphics games and provide a performance gain measurable, albeit modest for games, graphics applications and other programs intense from the hard drive.
In view of the foregoing, the best course of action for you and your parents is to take the computer to a local computer professional - not a type of place BigBoxStoreUSA or GeekSquad.

original title: my hard sucks
my hard is damaged in some portion.can, I changed the new hard drive and reinstall Windows vista with the existing product key?
Hello
Yes, you can reinstall vista with your product key on the new hard drive
Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista

Having trouble installing new drivers after installing a new hard drive and Windows Vista.
I just installed a new hard drive on my computer of dell inspiron 1525. I managed to do it and it worked. I had a disc from dell to reinstall windows vista edition Home premium 32-bit and had drivers and utilities dvd. However I couldn't connect to the internet. I understand I'm missing some drivers but I rebooted the computer, but it goes to the black screen asking you to start in safe mode, safe mode with network, normally and something else. But after trying all of them, it goes straight to this same screen. What can I do? Or I can clear the new hard drive and start over? Any ideas?
