  Try installing Windows 7 from XP and keep having this error message before choosing my instalation method, Windows not able to retrieve information about the disks on this computer.

• Receive an error message that Windows can not retrieve information about the disk when I try to put upgraded Windows XP to Windows 7.

  I can't update my laptop to windows 7, that he will enter the upgrade options, then it will say cannot retrieve information about this disk of computers. What should I do I deleted all leave them and still get this error. Thanks Chris

  It's a little late for this, but anytime you do an upgrade, you must be sure that your computer is compatible. My guess is your drive for windows 7 is a DVD and you have a CD or a witch of CD - RW drive can not read CD

• Non-compliant WMI when retrieving information about the same exact machine

  For some time, WMI has reported the following information some machine:
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Model = "HP EliteBook 8560p.
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Manufacturer = "Hewlett-Packard".

  One day, WMI has reported the following:
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Model = "161A___".
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Manufacturer = "HPQOEM".

  A few days later, WMI is returned for having reported the usual:
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Model = "HP EliteBook 8560p.
  Win32_ComputerSystem\Manufacturer = "Hewlett-Packard".

  I don't have the machine and the user can not explain what might cause WMI retrieve various information.

  How to get Windows in a State where it is retrieved different information about the same PC?
  Is there a way to 'reset' WMI so it retrieves information constantly?

  What similar (and different) for prior experience (different machines).

  The usual case is:
  Win32_ComputerSystem\UserName = DOM-user
  where:
  DOM is the domain of the user (in uppercase)
  the user is the user name (all lowercase)

  But sometimes WMI recovered:
  Win32_ComputerSystem\UserName = DOM- USER
  where:
  the username was all uppercase.   Apparently caused when the machine into hibernation

  or

  Win32_ComputerSystem\UserName = DOM- dom -user
  where:
  the field of user uppercase followed by domain user in all lowercase letters.  Never explained.

  I use WMI to develop an ID for purposes of the license, so it is extremely important that WMi systematically extract information.

  The problem with username is solvable.

  However, the model with randomness and Manfacturer seem more problematic.

  Thank you!!!

• How to retrieve information about the network (NIC) for each computer virtual (vim, perl)

  Hello

  I have this simple code to retrieve the name of the VirtualMachines in my infrastructure (filtered for data center)

  [.. .other code...]

  	use VMware::VILib;
  	OPTS::add_options (%OPTS);
  	OPTS::parse();
  	OPTS::Validate();
  	Util::Connect();

  My $datacenter = $DCFILTER;

  My $clusterFilter = $CLFILTER;

  My $datacenter_view = Vim::find_entity_view (view_type = > 'Data center', filter = > {name = > $datacenter});

  my @values = split (/ \ | /, $clusterFilter);

  foreach my {$val (@values)

  My $cluster_view = Vim::find_entity_view (view_type = > 'ClusterComputeResource', filter = > {name = > qr / $val /});

  My $vm_views = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type = > 'VirtualMachine', begin_entity = > $cluster_view);

  {foreach (@$vm_views)}

  		Print $_-> name. "\n";
  		$vm = $_-> name;

  }

  }

  Util::Disconnect();

  This code runs, but now I need to recover some information about each virtual computer network, specifically:

  (1) the labels of each card network to NETWORK interface (for each virtual computer)

  (2) the adapter Type (optional)

  (3) the device status: connected to the power (yes/no) (option).

  I have seen that there are being managed - network, property of the VirtualMachine managed - object, but I don't know how to use it in my code and if contains the information I need (maybe "Summary")

  Example here is one:

  

  in this case, I would like to know for this virtual machine

  (1) LANBACKUP...; dvPP_LABO...; dvp_LABO...

  and if it is possible information 2) and 3) for each NIC... in this case for NIC LANBAKUP...

  Flexible 2)

  (3) connected to the power supply: Yes

  Can you help me to integrate my code to retrieve the information above?

  Thank you very much, for your help.

  I realized prior extraction DVS elements:

  My $dv_switches = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type-online 'DistributedVirtualSwitch', properties-online ['name', 'uuid']);

  Then, you can search by UUID:

  ($this_dvs) = grep {$_-> eq {'uuid'} $the_uuid} @$dv_switches;

  This will give you the best performance as well, since you don't have to hit the API for each request (just the first effective request DVS).  You can add additional DVSwitch object data if you need it in your logic.

  Activate loggingDebug for/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductLookup in dyn/admin component browser and you can get more information about what might happen. If everything else is fine, cause most likely failure here could be that the product you want to search for is not for the current catalog. You can validate this by adding the parameter open wrongCatalog to your ProductLookup.

  If this is the case of the catalog wrong then you need explicitly setting catalog also gout ProductLookup. Note that this parameter to the ProductLookup of droplets must be of the type of repository, so you have to resolve in the first catalogue through the post-search and then move the element output as the value to the parameter catalog catalog. It would be something like this:

  
    
    
    
      catalog is....
  
      
        
        
        <%-- OR  --%>
        
        
          
          
        
        
          WRONG CATALOG!!!

• transition from xp to windows 7 I get windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer

  why I get this message?... try to improve the hp mini 110-1037nr from xp to windows 7

  This means that the hard drive of your HP system controller is not supported by Windows 7 with pilots from the box and you need specific drivers to install Windows 7 on it.  If HP does not have drivers on their website then you're probably not going to succeed.

• Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume, because it is write protected & Windows could not retrieve information about the disks on this computer

  I have Vista o/s & I am facing this problem. Please tell me the good soultion on it.

  Hi Sarang_982,

  ·         When exactly you get the error message you at startup of the computer or when you open any application or when you try to run chkdsk on his machine?

  I suggest that you put your computer in a clean boot state, and perform the steps below.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  You will need to disable automatic disk check, and then run the disk of the WINRE (Windows Recovery Environment) command prompt check and check if the c: drive error (there) get fixed.

  You try to run the audit from WINRE for drive C: disk drive and if it helps. Here are the steps to open the command prompt in Windows RE:

  Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer by using the power button on the computer.

  b. do one of the following:

  1. If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you must try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

  2. If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.

  c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select repair your computer and press ENTER. (If your computer is not listed as an option, then your computer doesn't understand no repair preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has disabled the.)

  d. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.

  e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt to open.

  f. Type "chkdsk/f" and enter.

  g. Type "chkdsk/r" entry.

  Check if the HARD drive is encrypted or not if yes then decrypt and see if it works well or not.

• Getting name of VMhost who questioned when retrieving information about the NFS data stores

  Sorry if the question has already been asked,

  I try to present NFS shares in each ESXi host and that does the trick

  Get-datastore. where type - eq 'NFS ' | Select name

  However, I want to retrieve the name of the host from which the information is retrieved.

  Unfortunately I do not see the name of the $vmhost among the names when I use get-datastore. get-member.

  How I do that?

  Thank you

  Alex

  Try something like this

  foreach($esx in Get-VMHost){    Get-Datastore -RelatedObject $esx |     Where type -eq "NFS" |     Select Name,        @{N="VMHost";E={$esx.Name}},        @{N="Host";E={$_.Extensiondata.Info.Nas.RemoteHost}},         @{N="Mount point";E {$_.Extensiondata.Info.Nas.RemotePath}}}
  

  A way to see what are the properties on an object is like this

  $ds = Get-Datastore -Name DS1$ds.ExtensionData | Format-Custom -Depth 3
