• Repair shop wiped the hard drive and gave the wrong version of XP

  I have an Acer Aspire one model ZG5, which came with XP home. While still under warranty, the pad has stopped working and would then start is more upward.

  Hi herikhi,
   
  Change the start of the base system (Input Output) BIOS setting to boot from the hard drive.
   
  Consult the manual of the manufacturer, to do the same thing.
   

  NOTE: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• (Redirected) Cannot boot from the HARD drive on dell n5010 with SSD and HARD drive installed

  I have my old dell n5010 (15R Inspiron) with SSD (Samsung EVO 840 120 G) installed on the main drive Bay and the HDD (Samsung HJJ 500 G) on the optical drive Bay.

  It is a typical way to add an SSD on such an old laptop (bought from dell.com.cn in 2011).

  My Windows 10 operating system has been installed on the SSD using Samsung Data Migration software, so the previous C drive was pointless. So I formatted and installed an operating system Ubuntu 14.04 on it, hoping the grub OSs double beginning located on the HARD disk.

  However, I find no the Dell bios boot option to boot from the HARD drive installed in my optical drive Bay. All the choices are 'Hard Drive', 'Network' and 'Diagnostic '.

  But I was definitely sure that my bios program has detected the SSD and HDD with information on the main menu of the bios.

  And the LED on the optical drive Bay was immediately once I pressed the Start button on my laptop.

  As a general rule, all things were right except for options of the bios boot.

  Is there a way I can boot from HDD (with installed Ubuntu) while remaining has my SSD on the main drive Bay? I don't want to swap their positions, because the SSD is super fast on the main drive Bay.

  I have alse won't migrate 10 Windows to the HARD drive and reinstall Ubuntu on the SSD, because I'd like my windows be loaded quickly.

  Someone at - it the same problem with me?

  Any suggestion is appreciated!

• Equium A100-147 - clicking noise from the HARD drive

  For awhile, I had clicking noise from the HARD drive and when the laptop could not, I assumed the reader was packed but trying a replacement nothing happens. I get a blue light for battery and a blue light (low) for the supply of direct current, but nothing for power or disc. However, when I plugged in an external drive yesterday it starts fine and when I unplugged the laptop continued to work the internal drive. But even once this morning he died and will not start. I read that the BIOS can stop recognizing the drive or maybe that the settings are not being saved when it is off. Could it be the motherboard battery?

  > reading the BIOS can stop recognizing the drive or maybe that the settings are not being saved when it is off

  Enter the Bios (press f2 at startup) and check if it recognizes the hard disk. You can see on the home page or the boot option in the Bios.

• Satellite A200 - Crackle sound comes from the HARD drive

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A200. When I start my laptop the patter comes from the hard drive.
  Someone knows something about it?

  Thank you
  Vikas

  In my view there s nothing wrong with your HARD drive.
  My drive HARD click every time while accessing data on the laptop and everything run ok for 3 years.

  But that doesn t mean that there is no hardware problem with your HARD drive. Usually it's not easy to tell when a HARD drive wound begins to malfunction. My first HARD drive died after 6 years of use. But the other HARD drive died after 1.5 years. This damage was covered by the warranty.

  Finally, I would recommend backup your data always on an external HARD disk to prevent data damage.

  Good bye

• My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files

  I'll provide too much information because those of us who are computer knuckleheads think that everything is important since it is a mystery to us.

  My main computer crashed and the data has been retrieved from the hard drive, including all of my Outlook Express dbx files. There are four years of e-mails in these files and critical that I be able to open them.

  My only working computer running XP. It has Outlook Express is installed on it and was once used for e-mail, but not more and not implemented with my ISP to send or receive if it matters at all. Other that the sending and receiving of all the other functions of the OE program appear to be operational.

  I have read many explanations on how to open the files dbx on different sites - all is completely different and most seem well beyond my skill level.

  There is a fairly painless way to open these files? I don't want to try anything that could damage them. Please... any solution please guide me through in its simplest form - I am 64 but pretend you are explaining the process to a 7 year old. Yes, I'm that lame!

  Sorry for writing a novel and thank you to all who take their time to help the ignorant!

  I advise you to immediately copies of your DBX files restored. Save the duplicates in a place safe, and don't mess with them.
  Then try using one of the various tutorials that you have found on the Internet by using a copy of your DBX files restored.
  I did it a few times, but years ago and I DBX http://www.techrepublic.com/forums/questions/how-i-open-corrupted-dbx-files-in-oe/ visualization tool
  You just continue to make attempts, using a tutorial after another.
  As long as you have these unchanged copies of backup of your DBX files, you should survive it - other than frustration. Email PC remains a mess.

• 1297cb HP P7: lack of response from the hard drive or windows 7 to my monitor help

  Greetings.  I have a HP P7 1297cb, all original material except the memory and hard drive.

  Original OS at home, is now Pro.
  I thought that my hard drive has expired and bought a new WD 2 TB black.
  And I don't have the other HDD cause I already threw out.
  
  So, here I am.   I installed the WD Black again and nothing.  Monitor powers and that's it.
  I get a hard drive light to everything first, about 5 to 10 seconds and off.  Touch HD and feels light low race.
  All fans and fees lights.  Power light on.
  
  No NumLock or number lock lights.  Œuvres and key/monitor / mouse, as I am with them now.
  
  Shot four sticks of 2 GB memory and get the beep.  One at a time plugged in no beeps and back in.
  You use a Windows 7 Pro disk rebuild for installation.  When the computer starts, I tried F10, F12 and nothing.
  I even pulled the mobo battery for a few seconds.
  I disconnected the power supply cord (pc) and held in the power button for about 30 seconds.
  I even turned on with the installation disc in and waited (until at least 20 minutes) to see if the screen would change nothing.
  I am willing to check the cpu, which remains the only thing to check, I'm guessing that about it.
  I get no beep or beeps when the pc starts.
  
  So, I guess also, that my problem was not the hard drive in the first place. ???
  Thanks in advance for any help.

  gwolfman

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  I don't know what a "Windows 7 Pro Rebuild disk'- so I don't know if it's any bootable media.

  Unless you changed the default device sequence in the start section of the configuration of the BIOS, it will look at the HDD FIRST and since it is empty, the PC will simply sit there - nothing to do.

  So, you must get to a boot device selection screen to boot from the DVD of Win7.

  The typical ways of doing are to press F9 or F12 - one of them will be implemented a unique boot device selection menu.  Then, you select the DVD drive and the PC should then restart.

  It can display a line of text at the top of the screen, something like «press any key to boot from...» "If Yes, press the space bar.

  If the DVD is good, the PC will then start on the initial screen for the installation of Windows.

  Good luck

• Can't access the files from the HARD drive of any account on the windows computer 7

  Hello

  When I tried to connect my Western digital external hard drive to a 32-bit desktop P 3 with a Windows XP SP1, then this HARD drive is not detected. Then I tried to copy his WD driver ITS a USB Flash drive, then isntalled all the WD HARD drive was always plugged into my computer. After that, the HARD drive was identified by computer and appear in my computer. As I thought that this folder has been created by the installation of the driver, did not exist on my HARD drive before connected to the desktop computer.

  When I plugged my WD HDDagain to my laptop HP with Windows 7 SP1 64 bit and I tried open this folder, and then the main folder only opened without facing access denied, however, access to all of its subfolders, and the files inside it has been declined.

  In addition, althoguh the username admin Curernet "Mohammad" can open the folder of human "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50", as shown in the screenshot above, it can not access all of the subfolders, files in the main folder, and to access, I will need to use the scecurity tab. Thus, it would be absolute nonsense, if I want to have access to all of the subfolders, I will need to use the security for each tab.

  How do I gain access to all of the subfolders with use of the Security tab once the time (i.e. as long as all subfolders are inside the main folder, then simply use the main folder security tab?

  

  As long as the current username "Mohammad" can open the folder of "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50" man, "Mohammad" is so allowed system to have access to the main folder as shown in the screenshot above, then I think that the username 'Mohammad' will have to reach all subfolders as well. However, when you try to open any subfolder or file, then the current user 'Mohammad' name could not have access to all of the subfolders in the main folder and all subfolders or files opening gave me this error below (screenshots below)

  

  

  I tried to remove this main folder, however, each time, I found myself with a loop "you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.

  

  Original title: file access denied

  Groan.  It is so easy to fix, and you should have gotten a lot better support now.  Surprisingly, the worst suggestion came directly from the "Microsoft Support Engineer" Reda Singh, his suggestion potentially compromising the security of your computer while doing absolutely nothing to solve the problem.  Fortunately, it seems like you didn't do something quite right and so the script was not run.

  First of all, let me explain why this difficult access occurs in the first place.  Originally, you had three 'users' granted access to training, SYSTEM, Administrators, and Mohammad.  SYSTEM allows Windows to read your disk, and retrieve things like its label.  It can also allow your antivirus software to access the drive.  Because this OPTION is enabled, Administrators is not accomplish anything, even if you are an administrator.  As long as this OPTION is enabled, this permission only works for programs, that you manually raised to run as administrator.  This leaves access to the drive depend on the last entry, Mohammad.  The problem is the SID behind Mohammad is only good on the computer, it was created, so if you connect this HARD drive on another computer, no access is allowed!  Enter the security on the other computer dialog box, you can either see something "could not read permissions" or you will see the SYSTEM, directorsand a third entry with a long series of numbers.  It's your first computer Mohammad , and it will not work on another computer.

  It is not surprising that you're facing this problem because you are using the drive on multiple computers, which is running XP that is not UAC.  Here's how to unlock a storage drive (in Windows 7) so that it can be normally accessed in any PC without any permissions problem:

  1. Press [Windows] (or click on the circles to start), and then type "user account control".
  2. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
  3. Drag the slider to "never notify".
  4. Click [OK] to confirm the changes and restart your computer.
  5. Open Windows Explorer, right-click on the affected drive, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> owner (tab)-> [change].
  6. You should be on a dialog box that asks what you want to change the owner.  Click on Administrators.
  7. Check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects, and click [OK].  Windows should start processing all the files on the disc.  This may take a few minutes.
  8. When it's done, click [OK] to close the property message and then close out of all other dialog boxes.
  9. In Windows Explorer, click the drive affected again, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> [edit permissions].
  10. Now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , click the button [delete] repeatedly to remove all permission entries.
  11. Add SYSTEM and grant full control.
      1. Click on [Add...].
      2. Type 'SYSTEM' and press [Enter].
      3. Check full control in the allow column and press [Enter].
  12. Add Administrators and grant full control.
  13. Add users and grant Full control.
  14. In the dialog box Advanced security settings , you should have three entrances of permissions: SYSTEM Administratorsand users, all granted full control.  Check "Replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable from this object" and click [OK].
  15. Click [Yes] to confirm the replacement of permissions.  Again, Windows start to process all files on the disk, which may take a few minutes.
  16. When he finishes, close to all the dialog boxes and check that all records are now accessible.  You may have to refresh (or close and reopen) explore to see the changes.
  17. Assuming that it worked, we will re-enable UAC to reduce the vulnerability of temporary security, that we created earlier.  Press [Windows] and then type 'user account control '.
  18. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
  19. Drag the slider to the position below the top (position #2, by default).
  20. Click [OK] and restart your computer.  Now, the files remain accessible.

  This should straighten the permissions of your disk storage so that you can use it again.  You may need to empty the trash on this drive after changing permissions.

  Don't do this procedure on your C:\ drive, it will seriously reduce the security of your Windows installation.  This is for the readers of storage only.  If you need access to a specific file that you created to C:\, you can safely do the steps above on this issue, but never on the C:\ drive itself.  Please note that when you perform this procedure on a folder instead of a hard drive, you will need to replace this step #10:

  10. now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , uncheck the box "Include permissions can be inherited from the parent to this object" and click [delete] to confirm.  If some permission entries remain, click [Remove] until they are all gone.

  The concept is the same in Windows Vista, even if the exact steps differ from the foregoing at least Windows 8.  In Windows 8, you must also disable UAC with a registry tweak because, unlike Windows 7, UAC remains on even when the value of "Never notify", giving rise to all sorts of problems in Explorer tries to work with file permissions.

  Oh and to answer one other question I saw you ask from the beginning: this folder of the .net Framework was created by .net Framework Installer.  He breaks all the rules and frustrating unpacks his junk everywhere where it feels like.  I got it decompress on a front SD card, making the installation would take forever.  After installing the .net Framework, you probably disconnected the drive before restarting your computer, so these files let me.  Or the installation crashed and started you again.  Meanwhile, installs the failure left its Temp files behind.  It was supposed to remove the folder when the installation is complete.  You can remove safely as the folder manually.

  Original title: portable destroyed - need for car access

  I don't know if this is the right forum - please advice if it is not.

  My friend's laptop computer was destroyed in a car accident. I pulled the drive and placed it in my desktop XP system and the drive appear in good health. However, I received permission issues trying to access records on the disk and thought that it was because of me using Win XP and the laptop was Win7x64. My questions below are based on the assumption that I'm not able to access these files on my Win XP system. If this assumption is incorrect, so please let me know.

  I have a laptop that I don't use and put the disk in it. I was hoping it would be plug and play all the new material, but after reading a little online, I know that this is not the best thing to do and will probably not work as did the earlier versions of Windows.

  In the end, I care retrieves the contents of the disc, although it would be great if I could lend my laptop for a few weeks with "its files" until it sorts how to replace the laptop.

  Can I get the player Win7x64 working on the laptop computer of replacement by reinstalling Win7x64 on this laptop? I'm not "means a clean install/reformat, but have rather the Setup program detects an existing installation, and do its magic to get the operating system runs on new hardware?"

  I know that this raises questions of MS licenses. If the installation process could get his old system running on the laptop replacement, if I have a small window of time completely to access his files before being forced to re-register the OS? I'm hoping so.

  I'm looking for only a short-term solution - I do not recommend that he hopes that drive long term because the laptop got quite truncated of the accident, and once he gets a new laptop it will have everything he needs on this subject (OS, licenses, etc.). If I have a small window of time where I can simply copy their important files, or to lend him my laptop with its player and him can bring to its domestic network and the print out of all the things that are important, that it's going to be all together to move them to a new laptop when it is available.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You experience this problem because of the permissions applied to these s folder.  To resolve this problem, you will need to take ownership of these files and folders.

  Method 1: You can follow the steps mentioned in the link below to take possession of the records

  Troubleshoot "access denied" when opening files or folders

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-access-denied-when-opening-files-or-folders

  (Article above applies to Windows Vista, not valid for Windows XP)

  Also check out the article below

  How to capture a file or a folder in Windows XP
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308421

  Method 2:  You can try a custom installation (not a format\clean facility).

  See the link below for custom installation
  using the install option custom without formatting the hard drive

  Note: In custom installation only data would be transferred in Windows. Drivers, applications and the old folder will need to be reinstalled.

• 8000 elite: try to boot from the hard drive

  After placing a ssd, I get this notification. nothing else happens.

  I checked the bios, but I noticed that I can not change the boot sequence (ssd hard drive first, the other second place) so I changed the sata cables too the ssd is the startup disk.

  someone who can help?

  the ssd already has an operating system installed

  Sorry, from your description, I thought you might have "migrated" Win10 from the HARD disk to the SDS, and when people do this by copying partitions, they almost always forget migrate partition, including the bootloader files.

  So you did a clean install of Win10 for the SSD?

  If this is the case, you might be able to fix it by running the win10 installation media startup repair.

  To do this, you will need to use the link to the installation media to download Win10 and burn a DVD or create a USB key: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install?ocid=ms_wol_win10
  
  Note that when you download and build install media, the default tool corresponding to what is already installed on your PC (as in home for the House, and 64-bit to 64 - bit).  While you CAN change these settings, are NOT.  If you do, the media that results will be different and will force you to enter a NEW product code.

  Then, follow these instructions to run the Startup Repair tool: Doing - Startup Repair

  You may need to do this same series of steps three times.

  Good luck
