RESOLVED: Loop of reboot after installing new disks in RAID of PERC S100

A customer has a Dell T110 (with a PERC S100 RAID controller) running Windows 2008 R2. The system has two disks: a reader not RAID (C :) running the operating system and a RAID1 drive (E :) sharing data with network folders.) We need to install again, larger disks for the RAID.

I thought I could backup the data on the RAID drive existing (e), install new disks, built a new table in the S100 (VDM) virtual disk boot manager, boot into the operating system, create the new partition for the data replaced E: drive and copy the data back. This was not the case. After installing the new disks and the new array of construction (which is reported as "READY (R/W)" when starting, Windows starts all the way in "press CTRL-ALT-DEL to log". After two or three seconds, the system reboots. The same thing happens when I try to start safe mode. The system IS NOT automatically booted to the Recovery Console. He never seems to know that an error occurred and the system was not shut down normally.

I booted into the Recovery Console, installed the drivers for the PERC S100 and run recovery to start without success. Also in the Recovery Console, I ran 'chkdsk /f E:\. ' (remarkably, the drive letter for the data drive remained the same), and no error has been reported. I also reinstalled drivers S100 of the recovery using DISM Console, but that changed nothing.

I started to 8.1 Windows PE, installed drivers S100, formatted the virtual disk, copied the data which he, and everything works fine. The only problem is when I try to boot from the system drive (which has no problem) with the new installed disks.

When I put the old records, the system boots normally with no reconfiguration required. The VDM to start automatically remembers the discs and the table. Nothing shows up in the logs event indicating that there was an error during startup. (Ntbtlog.txt) start-up newspaper, after several boots with the new drives in place, indicates that the system restarts at various times during loading drivers. There is nothing coherent in the startup log to indicate what the problem is.

The only clue I have is that, during the startup, the VDM reports the virtual drive of origin as 'NORMAL (R/W)' and the new virtual disk as "READY (R/W)", but I'm not sure of the significance of this difference or if it suggests a solution.

I can't find clues in all the newspapers about what may be the problem. If anyone has any suggestions, I will be grateful. I'll be especially grateful for the wacky suggestions.

I ran it. Nothing appeared unusual. However, I does not solve the problem.

I connect the new readers to the same SATA ports as the old records. When I connect one of them to the SATA port that had not been used as part of the original painting, the VDM S100 reported the original failed array, because readers were is more connected and showed the new table as a LOAN. The operating system then started normally.

The trick, it seems that you should remove the old virtual disk before connecting the new disks on the same ports.

  • No Signal after installing new graphics card

    Hello and thank you in advance for your help!

    We have a 2 years old HP p6540y.  It has an ATI video card integrated. When we recently turned on, we got a message "no signal" on the monitor and then he'd go to sleep.  We tried many things to fix... listed below, in order and are always the same message.  Please advise!

    (1) No Signal: DVI, VGA, HDMI.  So we unplugged and rebooted, no change.

    (2) checked monitor and DVI & VGA cables with another computer: they all work.

    (3) installed new graphics card: NVIDIA GEForce GT 610.  Still got same message "no signal".

    (4) we plugged/unplugged all the other cards/cords / no matter what we could and cleaned.  Then, finally, the monitor turned on! But not for long...

    (5) after you restart the computer after installation of the graphics card driver, we got the 'no signal' message again.  We released once more, other cards/sheets and again once the monitor and the computer came to life.

    (6) we uninstalled the ATI integrated graphics card.  When we go to display, Advanced Options, he mentions our new NVIDIA as graphic/video card.

    (7) we turned computer off during the night and this morning when we have lit, we once agin got the message "no signal".  We have unplugged/plugged computer several times.  Also tried the trick with cards/plugs by pulling and we have nothing.  No Signal.  After doing this several times (about 10), he is finally working again.

    (8) we changed the sleep settings to: screen saver = never; Standby mode = never.

    (9) we restarted again to get once more no signal message.

    So... what should we do?

    Thank you very much!

    I think that your problem is caused by the power supply unit (PSU).  Here's a guide to help you solve the problem:

  • Bluetooth driver after installing new hard drive

    Hello:

    RE: HP Pavilion DV7 - 4270us Windows 7 64-bit

    Two weeks ago, I replaced the internal hard disk on the above referenced pc. I added slowly back the necessary drivers and software using a large HP Expert.

    (Note: I have create recovery discs when the pc was new, but for some reason, they would not install new hard disk.) This is the reason why I'm adding drivers and software available, one at a time.)

    3 questions please:

    (1) because my pc's bluetooth, I don't remember adding a bluetooth driver. How could I know?

    (2) Lightscribe software has been installed at the factory on my pc, but I have not just now. Is it possible to get that back?

    (3) reviewed the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, but was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find the drivers for my pc if I have upgraded. In addition, read on the forum, it seems to be quite a number of issues upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8. 1. What are your thoughts?

    Thank you for your help and suggestions.

    For the Bluetooth drivers:

    If you need drivers, follow these steps:
    1. in the run box, type devmgmt.msc.
    2 unknown devices would be listed as such and plotted with a yellow question mark.
    3. Select the unknown device or any other device you need of drivers and right-click to access the properties.
    4. in the Properties window, click the Details tab and select Device Instance of Id or hardware ID from the drop-down.
    5. an alphanumeric string, like this DEV_7130 & PCI\VEN_1217 & SUBSYS_012F1025 & REV_01\4 & 6B16D5B & 0 & 33F0 is the marker for the identification of the unit.
    6. Please provide this number so we can offer you the appropriate driver.

    Regarding Windows 8.1:

  • Help with Bluetooth after installing new HARD drive

    The hard drive failed on my laptop HP Pavilion dm4 3099se Beats Edition son. I replaced the hard drive, installed and activated Windows 7 64 bit (using the key supplied with the notebook windows). I used an oem Win7 disc, not the recovery disk.  Then I installed the drivers needed to make it work again. But I can't get the Bluetooth works, even if the wifi works. Use the Intel ProSet Wifi driver but the Intel ProSet Bluetooth driver returns an error when it is installed... and Bluetooth does not appear in Device Manager.

    I installed the ProSet software also. It is also an error "can not properly installed. I have not installed the HP software (which I hope it is not necessary).

    Is there than a bluetooth radios category in Device Manager?

    If so, then the generic microsoft drivers have been installed.

    Otherwise, the device is not enabled and is not being picked up by Windows.

    If you have not installed the software of HP connection manager, and who controlled the bluetooth when you reinstalled the hard drive, you need to install this software, turn on the BT using this software and go from there.

    On some HP business notebooks computers where the wizard wireless HP (predecessor to the HP Connection Manager software) controlling the wireless and bluetooth at the same time and no device showing in Windows when I reinstalled the operating system, which has happened to me.

    After installing the Wireless Assistant software, the two aircraft were then visible and I was able to install the drivers.

    Where am I wrong? What should I do?

    First of all he must know that if you are going to install together the Toshiba drivers after installing the OS to do in the right order!
    On the Toshiba driver page, you will find the Installation Instructions. You will need to follow the guide line! It is important to properly work all the functions!

    In addition, you will need to select the right OS. There are two: XP and XP MCE.

    To control buttons Toshiba works correctly, you will need to install the controls.
    But as I said above: follow the instructions in the insulation.

    A few words on the TV tuner:
    As far as I know, you can only use the TV tuner in the country where the laptop was purchased because different PAN and NTSC settings.
    In addition, the TV tuner driver offers TV tuning and recording capabilities using Media Center on your computer. If you have any MCE so I put t know how you want to watch TV.
