New SATA drive not available

I just installed a WD Caviar 1 TB SATA HDD in my XPS 400 computer. The BIOS it shows on SATA2, that Device Manager XP says it's working properly, and the WD Diagnostics program said that he passed his test. Unfortunately, that the computer doesn't show it as a drive and the WD install program it does not show as a drive on my computer. This is the first time to work with a SATA hard drive, so I can miss a step to make the visible disk. I installed 2 SATA DVD drives without problem. How to make the player available? I'm just trying to set up a second disc and not a RAID, is this a problem?

Thank you

    Hello

    PS c. 2015.0.1 on my iMac OS X 10.11.4 (el Capitan), I performed an action that ends by saving in a subfolder under the active folder running immediately. When I tried to execute the file. Automate with this action, I received an error message "drive not available '. Tried with the two saving options, "save and close" and "save to [folder location]".

    Could you please show me what can be the cause of this and how to fix it.

    The image processor Script can include actions that save you in the treatment of what an action simple single step is all that is necessary for a resolution of the image.

    Image size resample not checked the setting resolution to 72.  Not a single pixel will change the document resolution setting will change from its current location at 72 DPI.

    Canvas size add size or reduce the size of the document canvas.  If it is a background layer its size will change to the new size of the canvas, added canvas areas will have a pixel color adds the and increase in the size of background layers one or the reduction of the background will be cropped to the new pixels size size of the canvas.  A background layer does not support the transparency and its always the size of the size of the canvas to the current document. Other sizes of layer will not change when you change a document canvas size. However the new canvas size can reveal that pixels where the old canvas size cut.

    Your original append said the action was save files to a folder is the folder that is not available or you have to check the batch option to substitute recorded save as steps?

  • New SATA drives will not be initialized

    A few weeks, I got a Western Digital Green 1 .5TB disc start coming out, so I quickly made sure I had a suitable backup and the reader sent in for RMA.  Then, I bought a new Samsung 2 TB and installed without problem.  Windows XP SP3 the drive recognized and allowed me to initialize the disk, the format and create partitions.

    Then I had to restart my machine due to a software update and when XP loaded up, I noticed in 'My Computer' the reader is no longer listed.  I checked the Disk Manager, and while the hard drive was recognized, he began to "uninitialized".  Yet once I went through the steps to initialize/format/partition the drive, which worked perfectly, but after a reboot, the same question has occurred.

    I tried to use another port SATA - no change in behavior.
    I tried updating the firmware of the player - no change in behavior
    I tried to use both methods of not formatting (quick and full) - no change in behavior

    Today, I got my hard drive replaced by the return of Western Digital post and couldn't wait to install it and do it with (what I thought) was a nightmare drive Samsung.  I got everything in place correctly and turned on my PC.  Read the BIOS the drive fine and Windows recognises the new hardware and began to install the driver (I have another WD 1 .5TB already installed, so I had very practical pilots).  I initialized the disc formatted and partitioned to discover that the SAME ISSUE was happening on this new album.

    I intend to try a new SATA cable when I get work in the hope that the question, but does anyone else have any suggestions?

  • New to Blu - Ray SATA drive not identified in BIOS

    Precision 690

    Win XP Pro

    Hello

    Tried to install a Blu - Ray Pioneer BDC-202 BK player in the PC above, plug it into one of the SATA sockets on the motherboard (marked HDD_1 through HDD_4). I plugged the drive to each of these shots and allowed all SATA drives in BIOS and the player is not detected in BIOS or in Windows. I have also tried to change the shape of controller SATA AHCI to ATA.

    There is power to it (can open the drive Bay) and the LED lights during startup. I also noticed that the startup initialization part takes an age, most Windows crashes on loading in place (but eventully appears and works very well. All works ok once the player is disconnected.

    The player does not appear in Device Manager.

    My feeling is that the player is defective I tried to use connect it via a SATA/USB converter without success.

    This is the first time I tried to install a SATA device so my other thought is miss me an obvious step.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • New hard drive not detected

    Hello

    I have a Dell Dimension 4600, which was delivered in January 2004.

    It has a SATA 120 GB HDD which works very well, but it is now complete. So I decided to add a second hard drive in my PC: a Seagate Ultra ATA 320 GB.

    And here's my problem: this new hard drive is not recognized by the BIOS.

    I checked the disc (its rider is defined as 'slave'), all connections inside the PC, tried several cables IDE, and I also tried to clear the NVRAM (as explained in this forum). But it still does not.

    I was told today that Dimension 4600 can not manage more than 250 Gb disks, which could explain why he is not recognized. Have you ever heard it?

    Thanks for your replies!


  • Envy of HP dv7 - 7323CL: HP driver not available for my laptop after the WIN10, now said to use Windows updates

    I think I got this, just need confirmation, before I was going to HP.com to find udpated pilots, then site Web HP said if computers purchased after August 2013 have been tested, I think you could get the updates via the HP with WIN10 site.  My pc model was purchased in February 2013, it seems now that I have WIN10 there is no drivers for me page to go it says that I need to go to the updates of Windows.  Before I upgraded to 10, I was 8, and I had full access to the drivers download through HP.com page.  However, I think I understand now, I had a problem with the Norton Removal Tool, after using it, it makes my pilot biometric and disabled the Windows Hello to WIN10 - the reader of fingerprints for a connection.  The pilot appeared to be corrupted and I needed to just reinstall.  I finally found an old forum via HP where someone has had the same problem that I did and they are found to include a link for the driver, and it worked for my model of laptop and solved the problem.  After some tests, I uninstalled the driver and learned at that time, after the driver is uninstalled, I can go to Windows Update and it will search and find the driver that I uninstalled and offer me the download to reinstall.  That's cool.  So, I understand now that even now if the drivers are not available for my model via HP.com, I can now just do a search through Windows Update and it will fix the problem, only after that I uninstalled it through Control Panel, Device Manager, once I uninstalled, restarted the computer, then did the updates of Windows It downloaded the driver, like when I went to the Control Panel, Device Manager, I saw the biometric driver in good working condition.  This is the case now with who need driver updates / reinstall?  (Note: to update the drivers, I know too much, you can go to control panel, Manager of devices, and then click the driver and select Update driver software.)

  • Install the new SATA drive and the primary drive Clone which he

    After reading many messages from hard drive yesterday and the manual for my Dimension 4600, I bought a Western Digital 250 GB SATA internal drive which will become the secondary drive through Dell. My first is a 40 GB with 14 GB of free space. I am a student of site design Web and must use Adobe Creative Suite CS3, including PhotoShop, Dreamweaver, etc., which is a huge program. Technology Department told me that I could load the program Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on the new secondary drive and my images and other Documents which I will use to create Web sites for school. I could load MicroSoft Office 2007 as well if it is a good idea.

    What is a reasonable secondary use of a hard drive?  Is this a good practice? Benefits; Disadvantages?

    If the primary drive fails in the future, it is possible to just load Windows XP, etc on the new secondary disk at this time and the report on? Or I need to remove Adobe Creative Suite, MicroSoft Office, my pictures, etc., before I could load the operating system? I have a 60 GB external USB drive for backup of Documents and Settings.

    Dell Dimension 4600 (Pentium 4 CPU 2 .8GHz, memory 3 GB RAM) running MS Windows Home XP, SP 3.

    Any other good suggestions for the use of a Seconday drive in my case?
