Problem loading sansa e280 after hard drive reformat


Load should not require a driver. Are plug you the cord directly into the computer (not a hub) and you have tried all the USB ports on the computer? Some, usually at the back, offer more power than others.

Another thing, you could try is simply the opening on the back of the Sansa with a small screwdriver - don't waste the itty-bitty screw - and take the battery out and put it in comfortably. Simply, it can detach.

Even if it is somehow a driver problem, the drivers for the Sansa are both in Windows itself: the driver USB Windows base and that of the PSG in Windows Media Player 10 or 11 (not 9, one supplied with Windows XP).

Try putting the Sansa MSC mode (under Settings/USB mode), which works on the USB driver. And try to update Windows Media Player (download it from www.microsoft.com) to 10 or 11, if you use MTP mode.

When connecting the Sansa, look in Device Manager (XP location is probably different - tab Settings/Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager in Vista) and see if there is a yellow triangle with an exclamation point. If you see that, uninstall this device and restart. Windows should reinstall a working driver.

  • Reinstalling windows 8 after hard drive failure

    Let's say I bought a laptop with Windows 8 preinstalled (I'm considering the purchase Lenovo Yoga 13)

    and then one of the following things occur:
    -my hard drive dies
    -I want to repartition the hard disk and format it
    -I want to buy a new hard drive and replace the existing one
    The question: what is the safe way to reinstall the OEM of Windows 8, which comes with the laptop on a clean
    (no restore partition) hard drive?
    Here, the assumption is that I start with a laptop from work 'by default'.

    Some information:
    I read some topics on these forums and my current understanding is that the activation key for OEM Windows 8 is stored somewhere in the BIOS/UEFI and can be removed by windows installed. I'm fine with that. Where can I get the installation media in this case? In the Microsoft store I was informed (by a technician) that I would essentially need to purchase an OEM Windows 8. Certainly, I hope this gentleman, I was talking to does not know his business. I think know that by buying the windows laptop I also buy the license for this particular Windows OEM installed on it (related to hardware and all).

    Hello

    After looking around a bit, I can't find no details on a recovery device at all either. Only something about a picture "Recovery."

    The problem is that if your hard drive is a replacement or reformatted, it seems to me that the image would be useless because the software required to load it would be gone.

    Unless the 'Image' would contain the necessary software to load, and it's doubtful...

    Thus,.

    I would suggest picking up Acronis image, preferably of the Plus Pack version, or something similar...

    I tried a number of programs, including the most free, image and Acronis seems to be the better (and faster).

    There are a few programs that can detect that they have been refilled from an image and require reinstallation... That almost never seems to happen with Acronis images for some reason any.

    You can often find it for sale cheap and sometimes free after rebate, if you want to wait...

    It compresses the Image, she creates and takes much less space as a result...

    I have a 128 GB SSD, responsible for programs that absorb about 60 GB... Acronis compresses the image to 20 GB.

    It reloads the Image on ANY HDD\SSD that is large enough... 60GB for example.

    You can Image the entire drive or individual partitions... In your case, I recommend both as soon as you get the computer. Just to cover all bases.

    The only withdrawal to it is that you will need an external HARD drive or a Flash capacity...

    I make the Images of new OS every time I do a great time of change or put to date. In case of problem, 15 minutes to make a new image is nothing compared to having to start again.

    I currently have about 10 images to win 8 since I installed it taking about 180 GB...

    My understanding is that the installation of Acronis CD is also bootable... which is when you want to use it anyway. I can't confirm that at this time because my bootable CD was burned by the installed version of Acronis and I can't find the original disc to test it.

  • External hard drive does not work. Is there another way I could solve the problem without formatting the external hard drive?

    My external hard drive works. I tried to plug and when I tried to open it, it says to format the drive until I could use it. Everything works well as when I plugged the USB icon shown on the screen. When I check the disk management, it showed that the partition of the drive is there.

    I tried to change the drive letters, but still having the same problem. I also tried to run the disk check on the command prompt and the properties of the drive, but it still can not because there is error popping up saying that the disk check cannot be performed because Windows cannot access the disk.

    Is there another way I could solve the problem without formatting the external hard drive?

    I tried the first step in troubleshooting the hard drive, but it gives a
    error in saying that "hardware changes might not have been detected.

    So I tried the second method, and when I click on the "Check now" button his
    gives an error saying that "the disk check cannot be performed because .
    Windows can not access the disk".".

    So is there any other way or option?

    Thank you

  • Problems loading old library on external drive to new iTunes

    Issue. Recently, I reformatted and updated my pc for Windows 10, and I used an older version of iTunes (don't know which one it was) in time compared to what is currently available. I used to keep all of my music stored (via iTunes) on another internal hard drive which still exists on my computer. Windows recognizes it, and iTunes managed folders.

    The problem is that I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, and while he did load I had on iCloud, I feel I'm missing a few items that were in the library of hard drive. I tried to run iTunes now shift to select another library, but the iTunes folder managed had no info. The only things on the outside folder are:

    -Automatically add to iTunes

    -Books

    Games - iPod

    -Mobile Applications

    -Movies

    -Music

    -Voice recorder

    -.iTunes Preferences.plist

    I did my best to back up everything on my C: primary so I can have additional folders, however I do not know if this where is the actual library for the filling of the iTunes file, or if it is a new feature released in a newer version. I used to make everything perfectly until what I changed in my phone Samsung Galaxy S6 now broken (about a year) I'm give up and return to iPhones. My last being a 5s, my other being a 7 when he left for me.

    What is the easiest way I can make sure that the entire library is loaded in iTunes without causing cloud conflicts duplicates and/or a VERY long process of re - copy thousands of songs?

    Take a look at make a library of portable split. I hope you can find the iTunes folder which will have been in the C:\Users\ < user > \Music\iTunes before you reformatted. If you shift-Start-iTunes and choose the inside .itl file and the drive letter for the press pack has not changed, then it should work correctly. If not, you might want to put all the components in the correct form on media drive and then fix broken with my tips links to Re: iTunes can't find music (suddenly).

  • El Capitan loaded on my external hard drive disturbed my system preferences Maverick on my drive internal

    I currently use the most recent version of Maverick from an internal hard drive on my iMac. I needed to download the demo of Final Cut Pro X or under of El Capitan Yosemite and due to a limitation of version of FCPX. As I had an another Maverick boot on an external drive, I've decided to upgrade this drive to El Capitan. A few hours after the installation was successful, and I was able to download the trial of FCPX. So I planted my system and restarted with my boot Maverick my internal drive. So far so good, however, to my surprise, I can't the system preferences window because it gives me the following message appears "Unable to open the preferences system because of a problem.". Similarly, I get the same message when I load a DVD and the DVD player will automatically load.

    I need to go to my applications and open the program individual (Preferences system and DVD player to do what I want to accomplish.

    I restored tOSX recovery Mignot, but nothing has changed. I believe that El Capitan installation on another drive has created conflicts.

    I also discovered that my backup should be completely redone (i.e. backup lull in my go 530)... beautiful!

    Someone has a similar problem?

    If I can't solve this problem, I have to install El Capitan on my internal drive and maybe the problem will be solved.

    I would eject the external hard drive with the installation of El Capitan and see if it helps.

    FWIW, I have never known or seen reported when an installation on an external drive also changed the preferences on the internal drive.

    I suggest that you eliminate problems in your user folder by checking in the comments or in a new user.

    CREATE A NEW USER

    Go to system-> Preferences, create a new user in users and groups.

    Place in the new user by logging in under the Apple in the menu bar.

    Log in to the new user.

    You can ignore connect them with one identifier Apple. Hit continue and then jump.

    Only applications Apple will be on the dock.

    Go to Applications to open other applications.

    You still see the issue?

    If Yes, then the problem is with your core files.

    If not, then the problem is in your user folder.

    You have the time Machine and internal backups of your disk clone?

  • BSOD on install of Windows 7 after hard drive crash

    I have a HP Dv7 with Intel i7 and 8 GB memory. About 3 years.

    Recently, I lost my hard drive to a physical failure. I bought a 120 GB SSD as the principal and a 1 TB drive 7200 RPM as the secondary to be replaced. I ordered the HP restore kit to reinstall Windows 7, but each installation stops at "loading drivers" step and gives me a BSOD. I tried to remove the SSD drive and using only the hard drive, but the same results. Also tried to do a clean install of Windows 7 with an ISO image to a bootable USB key. The same problem. I also tried swapping the primary/secondary locations for readers.

    Nothing I have tried seems to work. I'm desperate for a solution! Why would I get a BSOD on a reinstallation of the software factory?

    I am trying install Windows 7 without SP1 to see if that works, but have no chance. What else can I try? What I have to install Windows 8 to work with the new hard drive or SSD? »

    I tried to restore 4 times (3 hours + per attempt). I tried the clean install of Windows 7 SP1 at least 10 times, each of them do not reach the exact spot. Windows won't INSTALL, so that steps can be taken?

    As I posted earlier, I had problems with installing Windows 7 on my laptop HP Pavilion Dv7 after replacing a hard drive defective. I ordered the kit of training materials ($60) and the operating system of restoration kit (essentially Windows 7 and drivers) on a 4 disc set. I paid the extra money for all accelerated for me.

    After you have installed a 120 GB SSD and the new 1 TB drive 7200 RPM, I tried to install the operating system using the DVD restore I ordered. Each installation took about 4 hours and each of the 3 times (i.e. 12 hours!) installation has failed at the end of the installation process. Then I downloaded a clean version of Windows 7 ISO and burned a bootable USB an attempt installs another 15, which also failed at the end of the installation process.

    In desperation, I contacted HP support and was informed that I had to pay for technical support. I must say that I was really disappointed by HP and HP «each incident» support I spent $59 and 3 hours talk with some idiots in the new Delhli, who accompanied me through a few tests of BIOS of base no matter what 3-year-old could have understood, I sent them a picture of the BSOD and error code, and they arrived at their 'solution' to send me my laptop to HP for them to install a new hard drive and reinstall the operating system for the pittance of $200 and 7 to 9 days!

    I refused their generous offer to relieve myself of the burden of $ 200 in my wallet and took the laptop to Fry when I bought it. After 15 minutes of discussion about my question, the tech told me that I needed to install the Intel drivers during the installation of Windows 7. He popped a USB key containing the Intel drivers, I've needed, continued with the installation of Windows 7, and I was back at home with a working machine within the hour. It cost me $35. A BARGAIN, given that HP, the company that BUILT my laptop was completely distraught about this problem and the only solution was to deprive me of my laptop for 9 days and during this time, charge me $200.

    So to all who read this, please pay NOT for the HP "per incident" support. They are slightly educated idiots who know no more about the HP product than your typical 3 yr old child. For example, they suggested that the HP laptop in my possession was "very sensitive" and I wouldn't be able to put 'any hard disk that was not exactly to the same specification as that was in it from the factory'.  Idiots.

    I you need to re - install Windows 7 on your laptop, visit the Intel website and download "floppy" (i.e. not the executable versions which self install) versions of their drivers for your laptop, load on a USB stick and when begins the installation of Windows 7 where it asks if you want to load the drivers, select the drivers on your USB key and installation will be smooth.

    Again, how is it possible that HP and their support forums are not aware of the problem or the solution? Seriously. This is probably the last HP I buy. Just exhausting and annoying to deal with this.

  • Satellite A215-S4757 blue screen & startup failure after HARD drive partitioning

    I just bought a Satellite A215-S4757 a week ago & I tried to divide my hard drive coz, I was only one partion (250 GB) using acronis disk director.

    After that I got the blue screen and now I failed to start and I tried all the options to repair my windows or load in SafeMode to no avail coz it crashes just from the window of microsoft corporation.

    I tried to reinstall windows vista with the cd but still does not!
    pls someone helo me :(

    Hello

    Creator of disc of Acronis does not for me but I know for sure that you can split the capacity of the HARD drive into two partitions with rendering recovery DVDs. Start your laptop with recovery DVDs and check the option to install it.

    You must have a mobile US model. I am from Europe and I don't know about you how it works with the recovery media in the United States, but it should be similar to the European and because of that it must be an option to divide the capacity of the HARD disk with two partitions.

    Please try again. It should work somehow.

  • Satellite M70 - after HARD drive partitioned, the OS does not start

    Hello

    Good then this is a real doozy, and I hope that someone will help.

    I started to fix my satellite m70 girlfriends using the disc of recovery etc, everything went fantastic, the HARD disk has been erased and Windows + all software has been reinstalled.

    Then I thought it would be a good idea to use partition magic to partition the hard drive, so I chose the main hard drive and cut 10GB of it to put in place a new partition.

    I rebooted, and then after Windows restarted again completed.

    NOW, it does not charge, it says no operating system, so I tried to start with the recovery disk and all over again...

    If I click on continue (to start the recovery process), however it is said now that the "Error #1828", free space is too small.

    I'm really angry that this has happened and I just want to start over again.

    Can someone help me with this?
    I can't access the Bios either (not sure if that might help), because I don't know the password (must be a fault im not aware of).

    Help, please.

    Thank you
    SG

    I think that this is the reason why you used a tool to change the size of the partition. At best, this should be done before you install Windows and 10 GB is a little too small for Windows. You must use at least 15-20 GB for the first partition where the BONE is placed.

    To resolve this problem, you must delete all existing partitions before using the recovery disk. Therefore, you can use a Windows XP disk or something else. Just boot from it and delete all partitions. Then the recovery disk should work.
    Check it!
