  • I try to install vista on a computer running xp. XP does not even recognize the vista disc is in the drive. XP recognizes any other drive that I use and the vista drive is recognized on other computers, that I put it in it's not a prob with the disk or cd

    I try to install vista on a computer running xp. XP does not even recognize the vista disc is in the drive. XP recognizes any other drive that I use and the vista drive is recognized on other computers, that I put it in it's not a prob with the disk or cd rom

    The Vista installation disc is a DVD. Apparently, you don't have a DVD player. You would need to purchase/install a DVD-ROM or DVD - RW to install Vista. Are you sure that your hardware supports Vista before doing this?

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/get/system-requirements.aspx
    Even if a minimum of 1 GB, the requirements in the real world Vista requires a minimum of 2 GB of RAM to run without problem. You will also need Vista drivers for all your hardware.

  • XP computer does not access the Vista computer on the home network.

    I have a three home computers I'm trying to set up using two with XP - Pro (all updates including SP3 installed) and a third with Vista Home Premium (SP2 installed, all the updates that are installed to date). The two XP machines can connect (access) between them, but they cannot access the Vista machine. The Vista Machine can access the two XP machines. I've tried every tip/trick that I can find so far and nothing. Ping on each pc test, uninstalled the Norton firewall, permisions changed part to the best of my knowledge on all PCs, I am the owner of the computer and to assume with a single account on Vista I have right to full ownership, contacted the manufacturer of routers (performed an upgrade), but nothing is allowing access to the Visat pc.  When you view the network connections on the XP machines, Vista is listed, I can click to open and see the folders to share, but when I try to open a file I get the error\\xxx\xx is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact. admin of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Access is denied.

    It's funny that I can find other users to comment on other forums that they are experincing the opposite scenrio with access denied on XP machines... Thanks in advance for any help...

    Hello

    Uninstall any software antivirus and then check to see if you can access the Vista computer again.

    Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software.
    If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • HARD drive not detected in the BIOS on Satellite A215

    Hi all

    I could use to solve this problem: bought this laptop computer without a disk of the auction. Installed again 2.5 inches HDD SATA 250 GB, which was not detected in BIOS and also not detected when using a MS Vista installation disc. When trying to install Vista, get a message no drive seen HARD and demand for pilots.
    I flashed the BIOS with version (2.0) of lates without problem through the CD drive, but still no detection of HARD drive.

    The drive partitioned and formatted NTFS without problem by using another computer and USB SATA adapter using the command line method. Just for additional verification, I went on the new HARD drive to an extra 2.5 "SATA HDD used for backups, but that the HARD drive has also not been detected.

    It is not a "compatibility" option in CMOS to select SATA or Auto, etc..
    There is not a second HDD, so this isn't a question of slave/primary. There are no jumpers on the new HARD drive.
    Set the CMOS settings 'by default' does not solve the problem.

    The SATA connectors on the HARD drive and laptop computer are in perfect condition.
    Also, the drive is not detected on the laptop connected via USB to SATA Adapter, but of course there is no OS installed to support this connection.

    In any case, I just can't come up with any more ideas to try.
    Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

    Best,
    Glenn

    Hello

    The BIOS should recognize the HARD disk even if the SATA mode would be compatible or AHCI. This should not affect the recognition of the HARD drive.

    You said that you have tested the condition of the HARD drive and it's ok, so I guess that it s no disc HARD question.
    Hmm, you could try to format the HARD drive once more and then connect the portable computer HARD drive.

    Another idea: Remove/Disconnect the CD/DVD drive and then connect the HARD drive to the SATA connector.
    If it does not, then I recommend to test another HARD drive, otherwise if the new HARD drive would not work, then a SATA controller may be defective.

  • Old hard drive PS3 by USB box not detected by Windows Vista

    Hello

    I recently updated my old HD PS3 40 GB with a 500 GB one. Since then, I bought an external HD for my old HD, in the hope that I could use it as a hard drive for some files I have. However, I encountered a big problem - Windows Vista does not detect the HD.

    So far I read a lot of posts on the internet with people having similar problems, but with no definitive answer, so I hoped to get :)

    So far, I've tested the speaker on both the different 40 GB and new 500 GB PS3 in HD, as well as 2-3 computers. Nor are detected by windows... both have the power (green light is on, and I can hear the disc rotation), but are not detected on the management of the devices or programs in 3rd (SwissKnife). As far as the computer is concerned, nothing is connected.

    Thinking that it was probably a hardware problem, I whipped my laptop HD out and connected on a separate computer and it worked without me even having to he invites. This leads me to believe that the device works perfectly and its something about the PS3 HD, who doesn't like Windows.

    The only thing I have not tried is put my old hard drive to the PS3 in the PS3 and reformatting. The only reason for this is a screw on the case of the PS3 has decided, that he's not budging despite all my efforts. Its now 12:45 and I'm too tired to fight with 1 screw more! :) I really don't know not how tabling in so well, 3 others went fine and I deliberately don't screw them in tight with the new HD after I read about the problems people have had by removing the screws.

    Someone at - it suggestions at all? How to get Windows to recognize that this has something plugged in, on how to remove that last screw embarrassing! Whatever that either would be appreciated!

    Thanks in advance

  • Error message: the 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local computer.

    Hello

    I've successfully installed the NCLEX - RN 4000 on Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium edition. However, I get the error message "the"Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 provider is not registered on the local computer"whenever I try to open the program.» The package says that the software is compatible with versions of Microsoft Windows Vista and XP. I tried to open the program using program compatibility issues resolution which did not work. I also do a right-click on the icon and choose Properties/compatibility and then selected the most recent Microsoft Windows OS program is compatible with and apply the settings. To my dismay, it was also a no go. I did some research and reading that Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit is not compatible with the programs .msi. So, I checked and found out that the file ends by .msi.

    With all that said, these are the questions that I find myself with:

    What can I do to fix this so that I can use my 4000 NCLEX-RN program?

    Why Microsoft Windows 7 is not backward compatible?

  • Video card GeForce GTX 660 not detected by the motherboard Windows 7

    I recently upgraded my PC with an Asus z97 - a motherboard and processor Intel i5 4. After the reinstallation of Windows 7, I was able to get a signal from my video card 660 geforce gtx for a few hours. After Windows install several updates, however, I am unable to use my video card without receiving an ENTRY NOT FOUND both of my monitors. My video card is also not appearing in Manager devices, or BIOS and use rather Intel HD Graphics. Cause of the undetected video card, I am unable to install the latest drivers for my card and I have no idea what to try next. I also made sure my current diet provides enough power for the card. Is powered without a doubt the map because the fans spinning, I'm positive that I've attached all required power cables, and the card is inserted completely into the motherboard. I tried all PCI-E ports in my motherboard, but it continues to not display. I tried to install the drivers manually, but the video card should be detected before this is possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    My specs:

    ASUS card mother Z97 - A

    Videocard GeForce GTX 660

    Intel i5 processor 4

    8 GB RAM

    700W ATX power supply

    I should point out that I have tried almost every technical troubleshooting that I have met, with the exception of disabling Intel HD Graphics. I fear that if, due to there not being any trace of my video card in the BIOS and Device Manager, if I disable this will also lose signal from the motherboard of DVI and HDMI, ports that are what I currently use.

    Hello

    As the graphics card is not detected by the motherboard, you will need to contact Asus for more help on this issue. You will need to check if the graphics card is detected in the BIOS or not, if not then contact the computer manufacturer is the right point of support.
