Removable Storage Memory stick not detected on HP desktop computer

Original title: removable storage

How can I get windows /my pc to recognize my memory stick. The controls are so different from XP I think it's a very difficult passage. Actually that difficult I can't find what I consider to be a good page to post this question so please forgive if this is in the wrong category. Thank you.

Hello. Could I please thank everyone who responded to my message and tried to help me. I probably come across like complete and total crazy after that. (although no one dreams of the good solution) I simply removed my memory stick and reinserted it THE OTHER WAY UP! ...... Yes I know!!! I was under the impression that the contact was face down... but... to live and learn. I promise you that it is a mistake that NEVER happen. A big thank you again to all actors :-(

  • Card SD & Memory Stick not recognized

    Hello

    I have a Pavillion m9517c with the Athlon Phenom Quad-Core processor.  Initially, it came with Vista and when I got Windows 7 software, I installed it on a separate partition so that I can dual boot until I feel comfortable with Windows 7.

    Unfortunately, my cards Secure Digital or my Memory Sticks are recognized.  Is there a driver I can install will fix this?

    Thank you.

    Try to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the card in any case reader.

    Right click on the drives in the Device Manager, select uninstall, and then click OK.

    Once you have removed them both, get off at Bus USB controllers and remove any entries USB Mass Storage Device by using the same process.

    Once it is finished, right-click on any list in Device Manager and select "Scan for hardware changes".  It will redetect and reinstall the drivers for those devices.

  • Satellite P200 - 144 Memory Stick not recognized

    Hello

    I have a problem with the memory card reader. Whenever I put a Memory Stick (MS Pro) is not picking it up. Happens to format the disk and when I try to format, it says disk cannot be found. If I push it just 3/4 km that it works.

  • No audio, cd/dvd devices does not work, can not update via Microsoft Update, usb memory sticks not recognized and much more

    The initial problem was no audio sound on CD.  The computer had other system sounds.  I uninstalled the Realtek drivers and downloaded from the website computer and reinstalled.  Still the same problem. I tried to adjust the volume control and clicked the speaker at the bottom on the right bar.  I got a message saying there is no mixer device and the small speaker disappeared and reappeared even after several reboots.  There is also an error "no audio device".

    After reboot, the computer gives this error message: "Generic Host process for Win32 Services has encountered a problem and needs to close." We are sorry for the inconvenience. »

    While trying to find a solution on the web, I discovered that the computer does not recognize the usb key,
    It won't restore to an earlier time,
    the CD/DVD drive will not run the data disks

    and Windows Update will not update.  The error message said: "the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to show."  There is an error number: 0x800706BE I tried to find this error message on the MS knowledge base, but it is not listed.

    The last Windows Update was on April 16, 2009 so I tried to restore to April 15, but it says 'system restore is not able to protect your computer.  Restart your computer and restart System Restore. "    After the reboot, the same thing happens.

    Any help is appreciated.

    The data is not "hostage." Pull the disk and put it in a box disc or it slave to a working computer and retrieve the data. If you don't have an additional computer you will need to borrow a friend or with the machine at a tech. You can also try the o with a Linux Live CD boot. I like Knoppix, but there are others. This has two advantages: 1) if the system works, you can back up all the data that missed your last backup; and (2) with the machine running Linux allows to determine whether the problems are caused by software or hardware. If the machine is unbearably slow and/or Linux cannot run correctly, you know that the hardware is at fault. If the machine behaves perfectly under Linux, you know that the software (Windows) is at fault.

    Whatever you do, do not install Windows without test material. If the hardware is at fault, software solutions like reinstalling Windows will be unnecessary. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • File security does not not correctly on the desktop computer

    Hello world

    I have securities of problem setting on the files on the desktop. (on files work correctly)

    My problem - example:

    Sign in to Windows as the user John.

    Then I create the new file test.txt on desktop and set permissions to reading and execution for the user John. All users are removed from the security.

    I have save permissions on the file. Then I try to delete a file and the file is deleted! (this should not happen): S

    If I try the same process on the file C:\temp\test.txt and I can't delete the file. (and that's OK)

    Permissions:

    Sorry for the delay, but after a large trial, sent the examples and discussions with experts NTFS, I finally found the cause.

    If you don't want a user to be able to delete the files in a folder, you must remove to delete permissions to the folder that the file is stored in, not the file itself.  After my colleague told me this, I tried it on my machine and it doesn't seem to be the case.

    I know earlier, I have installed Vista and it is not supported, but Windows 7 and above all this (I tried in virtual machines).

  • Windows update - Windows Update is not restore my windows/desktop computer after installing updates

    When running Windows Update is not reproduce my office and rather trashes everything.  Ysterday I left to work with over a dozen research Internet Explorer open and this morning, I get to a Windows auto update cycle, which wrecked all.  Well Yes, they are lost and of course, I can spend an hour or more to find once again but my boss is breathing down my neck, as if it was my fault.  Microsoft how inconsiderate!

    Of course, I have a solution, TURN OFF Microsoft Update but is this really what Microsoft wants?

    Please people think.

    Hi jbeech,

    No, I don't work for Microsoft and I am not associated with them in any way (other than to receive awards and certificates I earned on my own).  I'm a volunteer civilian gift free time to help other people.

    I meant nothing personal, per my comments of workflow.  I was just trying to do my best to help you avoid this problem in the future and apologize if you took it the wrong way.  I agree with you that he must restore it things automatically (as it does when you use the hibernation), but maybe that can be done (at least not always) because updates may affect items that are open and to update these programs must be closed (which makes saving them more difficult because if they look different after the update) It may not work if we try to restore them unless they can find a way to save ONLY the information and it is a much more difficult task).  This problem does not occur with an accident or an unexpected shutdown (and a complete restoration in cases does not always work as well and completely that we hope - at least I had problems back exactly where I was with all that every time).

    While you can choose to turn off automatic updates, you don't want to not go for very long without updating your system, so checking periodically (although if you want to do on a daily basis - I would try at least every Wednesday at least since most updates are released every Tuesday) is important in all cases.  The option I suggested (i.e. automatic downloads but no facilities) would at least them already downloaded (you would not need to check - that they would be there) it would take much less time to choose and install if you show if off completely - and when you decide to install, you will find it takes MUCH more time because you need to download and install (unless they are already downloaded).  But it is entirely up to you.

    Good luck and best wishes!
