Problems with the flash drive and ReadyBoost

I just bought a fairly expensive 32 GB SanDisc Extreme 3.0 USB Flash Drive for use with my Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit...

After formatting the new flash drive and tried to assign to ReadyBoost, a dialog box pop on the screen informing me that "this device cannot be used for ReadyBoost.  The unit doesn't have the performance characteristics required.

If Windows 7 does not have a top of the range flash drive as a device for ReadyBoost, what "performance" requires

Not an answer to your question, but let me point out the following:
unless you have very little RAM on your computer, ReadyBoost is
useless and will do nothing to improve your performance. Use of the
drive for something else.

    I just installed a 40 GB to 80 GB hard drive and installed all the drivers in the correct order, as indicated by toshiba. Everything works well except the used for Quicktime .mov files. All I get is audio but no image - other than a colorful blur screen!

  • Problem with newest flash drive and restoring the system

    Greetings,

    SYSTEM - Windows XP SP3 with browser Firefox 5.0

    I run an anti-virus scan every day on my PC (Avast free 6.0.1023 with the updated definitions).

    Then I downloaded the latest version of the Flash player on your site at www.adobe.com/downloads/ last night but it was not installed.

    Ran a virus on the plug-in installation file and scan scan has reported that he was not able to scan multiple files because they were protected by password in archive - NEVER SAW THIS BEFORE.

    So I deleted the file from archive.

    This morning when I ran an antivirus scan everyday, he pointed out that several protected files in the last system restore point since the installation of Flash player file.

    So I tried to restore from Friday, the previous week, but the restore operation failed.

    Tried two days last month and the month before that; no notice of restore.

    Finally, I shut down the system, restore and rebooted the PC to erase all data in restore file.

    Then restarted system restore and ran the antivirus and all is well again.

    I used restoring the system previously on this computer without any problem.

    Also, I noticed the name of file to Setup plug-in is not the format of the normal name - install_flashplayer10_mssd_aih.exe

    instead of install_flashplayer.exe.


    I'm confused, why change a system that works?

    Thank you for your time and your help.

  • Problem with the Flash Player and safely remove Hardware icon

    I'm a casual pc user, so it's not very technical!

    I bought a new computer from Dell Studio One desktop in July.  I use it once or twice a day in general.  When I use it, I usually insert a flash drive so that I can save my documents, etc.  I also use the safely remove hardware option before removing the flash.

    Here's the problem: these days, the little 'remove hardware safely' remained in my taskbar with the green check mark on that.  When I click on it, it shows an option to safely remove drive F.  Until this problem, when I want to insert flash, Windows would label it drive F.  Now, all of a sudden, when I insert the flash, it becomes the G.  And I have this ghost f.

    It's not a huge deal, I don't know, but I do not understand what has happened.  Furthermore, I use Vista, and when finally, I guessed my way, I found the Code 47 as the cause of the problem.  Of course, Code 47 indicates that I left something trendy, but obviously, I have not.

    Any help out there?

    Hello

    I suggest check in disk for the driver letters which are present management and remove no matter what additional driver letter (e.g. f :/) and check if the problem is resolved.) Follow the steps mentioned in the article below.

  • Error message "Photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver and proposes improvements temporarily disabled graphics hardware user."

    I check the display driver that I have and that is Intel HD P4600/P4700.  It is a driver supported by Adobe, according to Adobe's Web site Adobe Photoshop CC GPU (graphics processing unit) and card video FAQ.  What should I do?  Furthermore, I don't need video improvements.  I am running Windows 8.1.

    It's your graphics card that is supported but always your graphics card drivers may be outdated and that could be the cause of this error message.

    You should be able to download the latest drivers from site Web of Intels graphics card.

    This error message means that he has temporarily disabled GPU enhancements which means filters and features requiring an implication of GPU would not work.

    Hello

    Try to update your display manually driver and do not use the analysis of the drivers on the manufacturer's website either.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause

  • 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.

  • my computer asks me to fix a problem with the graphics driver intel but windows tells me solution can not be downloaded

    computer crashed and rebooted itself. I first started in safe mode, and the computer did not find any problems but had sent a report anyway.

    To restart normally, the center of the action (or as I would say, Center!; - p), has been asking me to scan with windows defender and a problem with the graphic driver intel. Scanned well, but to solve the problem, said action solution Center could not be downloaded. I am most definitely connected to the internet and have tried to solve this question many times during approximately the last 18hours?
    Help would be much appreciated?

    Good suggestion but I tried this, had to go the manufacturer of the laptop, but still no luck. Think he was playing tricks on me in any case, as seemed to be resolved with a full audit of the system and diagnosis.

    Thanks for the effort though...
  • Will there be another windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Will there be another Windows coming out soon with the floppy drives and DVD players.

    Hello

    Disks: I don't think so. I always keep 25 floppy disks for Windows 95, should be a few thousand disks for Windows 10. Very, very, very expensive to store files and transport.

    Of DVD: would soon come out, new machines will have 10 Windows (who knows) pre-installed or downloaded. You can always find Windows 10 DVD in some countries where users will still have to use dial-up Modem.

    Hope it makes sense.

  • Equium L10: Problem with the main battery and battery RTC

    Hello

    I have the Toshiba Equium L10 and it is about 14 months old and I have problems with the battery and how much time it takes after a full charge. I also have problems with the RTC battery and an ERROR 0271: check date and time settings message when I turn on the laptop.

    Regarding the battery, I can fully charge it upward in about 3 hours, but when I start to use it, apparently in the last few hours around one and a half or so and then it needs to be recharged. I can have down for about 40 minutes and then turn it off and come back later or in a day or two. How long should I expect from a fully charged battery?

    About the batttery RTC, it really becomes a pain and I only started to get the message of the ERROR 0271 start-up, in recent weeks. I can charge the battery pack and then leave for a few days, but when I turn it on, I get the message ERROR 0271 on the date and time incorrect. Surely after a full charge, the RTC battery should last longer than a few days?

    The manual says that if the RTC battery is exhausted or becomes weak, you must charge the battery of the CCF for 24 hours, in a different part of this manual indicates between 24 and 48 hours, but how can load you for long when the sections concerning the charging battery pack status after charging the battery you unplug the power adapter because leaving connected will shorten the life expectancy of the Battery Pack. So, how we can charge the battery of the CCF for 24 to 48 hours if we shouldn't leave the AC adapter plugged in once the battery is charged - which is nearly three hours. Suggestions about these problems would be appreciated.

    Besides we all know that it is easy to change the CMOS/RTC battery in your desktop base unit, but is it easy to change in a Toshiba Equium L10?

    Concerning

    Brave0

    Hi Brave0,

    The normal recommendation for the CMOS (RTC) battery is to leave the laptop connected to the power supply at least 12 hours when the main battery is fully charged. The charging circuit is going to hijack the current to the load automatically RTC battery and no current will be forwarded to your main battery.

    Recommendation do not leave the power adapter is plugged in the main battery is fully charged is really only applicable to older laptops that used no batteries Li - ion and therefore they had to be completely discharged before recharging to avoid any effect 'memory' of the battery.

    With modern Li-ion batteries, it is quite safe to leave the battery when fully charged and still power the laptop from the AC adapter. The charging circuit will pass all the battery charge if it is fully charged.

    Kind regards

  • problem with the Finder - files and folders displaying incorrectly

    After acquiring a new iMac, I noticed a problem with the Finder - files and folders are displayed wrong (see table).

    This is what happens always after the files have been transferred from one folder to another. I was reminded of my days of using Mac OS in the 1980s when automatic setting of files was not so "automatic." I use Mac OS for decades and I don't remember the last time I had to think about GUI problems like that.

    Other problems in the graphical display of files and folders were introduced, such as when you have hundreds of files in a single folder, you end up deleting about 30 to 40 of them say in a particular section, and you end up with gaps of the ChartSpace where files used to be, that is the remaining files automatically rearrange themselves (fill in these gaps) - never. A week later, you open the folder, and the gap of GUI is still there.

    I decided to do a clean install of the operating system but nothing works.

    Is there some setting in Prefs I'm missing?

    Hi there highland99,

    Looks like your folder icons are not accommodating themselves automatically you plan to do. To me, this indicates that you have organize by the None value in the view menu. You can change the way files and folders are prepared automatically by clicking on view > reorganize by and selecting how you would like that fixed.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.
