  • CD/dvd driver not found when installing Windows 7 on Asus f501A

    I am trying to install windows 7 on this laptop. Windows 8 are installed, but the drivers for the hardware that I need to use are not supported. I connect to cd/dvd-rom to boot from usb. I can install windows now the next screen ask a driver for the cd/dvd driver.

    I suggest, if you want to run Windows 7 on your system, you must do it through a virtual machine:

    You can use alternatives such as Oracle VirtualBox or VMWare Player.

    https://www.VirtualBox.org/wiki/downloads

    VMware Player;

    http://downloads.VMware.com/d/details/player_401/dGpkYnRwd3didGRwQA==

    or

    You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.

  • No hard drive not found when installing Windows 7

    I have a HP Envy 4 - Ultrabook 1046tx and the operating system Windows 64-bit 8.1. While downgrading to Windows 7 64 bit I was unable to find the hard drives. In the installation screen it showed me "no hard drive found. Click on load a driver to provide a driver for installing mass storage.'.»

    I downloaded all the versions (from most recent to oldest) technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers and I tried install one by one but they do not work and the hard drives are still not visible. But if I use a Windows 8 install disc and install the driver drives are visible.

    I need my computer to display the default hard drives without the need for a SATA driver. How do I do that? My Intel chipset manufacturer and model is Ivy Bridge HM77.


    Can someone help me solve the problem please?

    Thanks in advance!

    I tried a lot of things these steps. But this has not worked for me. Might work for others. I'm sticking with Windows 8.1 for awhile and I will continue to find other ways. If I find the solution will immediately post the solution in this thread. Thanks to Paul_Tikkanen for helping me!

  • Error 0x8007045D when you try to install Windows Vista SP2

    Hello

    Currently I have Windows Vista SP1 and want to upgrade to service pack 2. When I try to do the update of Windows, I get "error (0x8007045d) Error_IO_DEVICE. I also tried to install it in safe mode, I get the same error message. After having traveled a bit on the internet, I found that it is probably because my HDD is damaged... so I run the chkdsk program...

    The chkdsk program stops at 16%... Step 4 of 5... When 85785 files off 300000something files are done... and it does nothing more. It keep running like this all night, it goes no further.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do to successfully install Windows Vista SP2?

    Thanks for your help!

    OK, I started the computer with the Windows CD and I ran chkdsk /f at a command prompt.

    Chkdsk /f found errors it corrects.

    I ran Chkdsk/r... .he got stuck after scanning 85763 files... near the place, he would always get stuck (85785 files)... so I guess it's the same file that crashes chkdsk.

    The good news: I still have a functioning computer.

    The bad news is that I ran the SP2 from windows update in new safe mode and it didn't work... I'm still stuck with my problem.

    I have an extra hard drive... that I ordered from Dell for my girlfriend's computer, his computer died before she could use the player, but it is larger, then the drive of your computer and it is brand new... the only downside is that the player has been implemented for the computer of my girlfriend (pilots and other things) and does not work in my computer. I guess I'll try to format that drive to make it work in my computer... it should fix this and then bad SP2 remedial power very well.

    I guess I have no choice.

    I suggest to remove avg (uninstall) then try sfc/scannow then chkdsk /f several times. a few times, they need more going to make things more

    Microsoft security essentials is a better a v for not update couseing problems.

    You can allways put avg in the back.

    not having is not enouph to free space for temporary files can couse problems too.

  • Error messages: "an unknown error has occurred" and "message is not found" when you try to remove and open your messages.

    Original title: having touble delete messages in Windows Mail

    In Windows Mail, I have a problem deleting messages, a note comes up saying "an unknown error has occurred." Messages can be opened with the message "message was not found. I am running Vista with the 32-bit version, so I ran the 32-bit update and received the message that 'update doews not apply to your system. I also ran the 64-bit update but got the same message. Anyone able to help me?

    This is usually due to a mismatch between what is in the message store and what is in the database and is usually caused by invading antivirus software (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  Try to compact and repair the database and see if that fixes the problem (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).

Connect to the internet and try installation again. ' or 'no internet connection. "Connect to the internet, and then restart the installation. I have tried everything I know reset IE8, uninstall programs that I tried to install, checked and rechecked my connection (have an excellent connection every time I get this message).

  • Error 404 page not found when changing the target agent owner

    I use OEM 12.1.0.3. For all other target (DB, earphone, host, etc), I was able to change my account to another account owner.

    I sailed to targets-> all targets-> (right click on the target)-> target-> administrator access implementation.

    I used the "Change owner" button on this page for all the targets successfully. However, when I click on "Change in ownership" for the target of the agent, I get an error page 404 not found error. Has anyone seen this happen before? Is there a workaround to emcli that I can use?

    You can use the verb emcli change_target_owner to change the property of a target.

    Syntax:

    emcli change_target_owner

    -target = "target_name:target_type".

    [- target = "target_name:target_type"]

    -owner = "current_target_owner_name."

    -new_owner = "new_owner_name".

    EX:

    emcli change_target_owner-target = "myhost.oracle.com:3872:oracle_emd"- owner = "SYSMAN" - new_owner = "LNHAN"

    For more information on the verb, see:

    The verb reference

    Yes, I saw the "Not found" error when you attempt to change the property of a target of the agent from the console in EM 12.1.0.3. The operation works very well in 12.1.0.4 EM well.

    Kind regards
