    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

    Method 2:

    As all devices have same also have USB device associated drivers. Appropriate sometimes drivers not detected after initial installation so reinstalling the drivers can fix the problems.

    You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

    (a) click Startand then click Control Panel.

    (b) click system and Maintenance, click System, and then click Device Manager.

    (c) Note if the control panel is in Classic view, double-click Systemand then click on Device Manager.

    (d) If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    (e) in Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

    (f) repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

    Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

  • Qosmio G30 - SSD drives are not recognized

    I have a Toshiba Qosmio G30-140 with two hard drives.

    The system allows to start the 1st or the 2nd.

    To speed up the system got two Samsung 830 Series SSD drives

    They work well, but the "Samsung SSD magician" application, does not recognize

  • External hard drives are not recognized by Lr4

    When I plugged my two external hard drives to my computer this week, Lr4 does not recognize them. Each folder has a question mark by it.

    Appreciate any help... Thank you!

    Dave, none of us "aid" are employees of Adobe, we're all users just like you... it is a user forum where we all help each other.

    Return to the specifics of your problem, "eject" is a function, you should find the area of the Windows taskbar system tray, but you may need to click the little pointing up (marked in blue on the attached screenshot) arrow to 'show hidden icons', which will reveal a bunch of other icons and the one you need is marked in red. Click on that to reveal a list of devices that can be ejected, select the one you want and wait to be advised that it is safe to unplug.

    To be honest, I would never disconnect a drive just unplug him.

    Regarding your other external drives, like I said that Windows will assign the first available drive letter, unless you use the "edit the drive letter" option to assign a specific drive letter... in this case Windows will remember this assignment and will subsequently always use this letter provided it is available at the time of reconnection. In other Windows do not book the drive letter, but it will use it if it happens to be available.

    For this reason that I attributed to all drive letters my backup hard drives that I regularly remove after use, so I know I will always get the same letter each time (which is fundamental to my backup strategy).

  • HDD and dvd are not recognized in the configuration menu, what could be the problem?

    The hard drive and dvd drive are not recognized on the configuration menu for my desktop Pavilion a4316f.  What is a controller failure?  A PCI controller can be used to replace the motherboard controller?

    dhobs,

    Anguish, that the suffering of the faulty motherboard has been aggravated by your actions. Why you decided to perform a restore (which re - formate the disk, erase all your data files (documents, photos, videos to misic,) is really amazing.)

    You had a viable BONE, work and the data store. You he clobbered with recovery. As explained, the 'tattoo' reads the embedded hardware configuration and will stop at the resumption of treatment if it detects a change.

    Only temporary help I can offer is to open the computer case and install a small 12v on the NVidia chip fan. IF the chip is not 100% burned, you can earn low enough time to reinstall the operating system and then add the map.

    I know that readers have a factory reset hidden on the disc and press 0 to the power upward, but with the unreadable disk, how can I repair my installation of Windows Vista?

    Hello

    If the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS or other laptops, then I would say that your HARD drive is defective.
    In this case, you need to replace the HARD drive.
    In this case, you will not be able to start the recovery procedure from the HARD drive because it works badly as he has already said

    Are you from the Australia? If you need a recovery disk, I recommend contacting the local Toshiba ASP to get this drive

    Hi Paul,.

    You don't say what model of laptop you have, but generally speaking if you are using Windows XP then you will use the standard Microsoft drivers for your scanner.

    However, you can Toshiba drivers and utilities download from Toshiba web site by clicking on the Support section and downloads and selection of files to download. You will need to fill in the details of your laptop so that the list of appropriate driver (unless you have provided these details when you register).

  • Hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS - Equium A60

    Hi hope someone can help. I have a Toshiba Equium EA60-173 and the hard drive is not recognized in the BIOS. When I remove the hard drive and put it in another laptop it is detected fine. I also tried another hard drive in the Toshiba and that does not work either. So I suspect the IDE controller has disappeared, but can I do to confirm this? I wish there was an option in the BIOS to force detection. I updated the BIOS but still the same.

    This laptop is only just out of warranty, so if it is the controller would I need to replace the motherboard? Are there other options at my disposal?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Neil,

    Unless there is some physical\problem with the cable/connector hard drive, then it is most likely that you will have a new mainboard for your laptop. I suggest you to contact an authorized service partner and ask them to check your laptop and give you an estimate of the cost of the repair. Then you can try to shop for less expensive alternatives.

    Kind regards

    [When you install Microsoft Windows XP by using a floppy drive USB on a player who]

    installation. When Windows XP searches the driver of the second time, he will not be able to see
    the floppy USB drive drive and prompts the user for the driver (RAID) again.
    The installation will never reach this point. ]

    Solution:

    This is a limitation of Microsoft, the Floppy Drive are do not appear in the file Windows 'txtsetup.sif.

    Original title: CD-ROM/dvd-rom _

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    ===============================

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD
    Burn and CD and DVD read). So it is not unusual for 1 or 2 operational so that other parts
    do it right.

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and
    the correct registry entries for your car.

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive
    as there will be other subkeys in these keys. Do not forget to ask specific keys involved as well as
    the parameters.
