Search for floppy drive error

  • every time I start the computer, I get the same message then press F1 or F2.  It is with xp.

Even if your in the Vista forum, suggest you check your BIOS settings regarding the boot sequence. Your hard drive should be the first and the last diskette. There could be an option to disable the floppy drive, it not in use any more.

  • A clean installation of Win7 Pro 64 Bit OS SP1 maintains the search for updates. (Error 0 x 80070005 windows update)

    Hi, I recently formatted my HD and clean installed with an older version of Win7 Pro SP1 x 64 OS, I more than a week now looking online for help, but nothing is. Windows Update appears to hang "search for updates". I don't presume that my Pc is virus free because of a clean install, so I'm not sure that Microsoft stopped providing updates for older versions of windows or not. I also tried to upgrade to OS 64-bit win10 everything works fine with the installation until it reaches "search for updates" which also hangs and does not download updates, I tried Microsoft stand-alone install also but who doesn't either. I also tried running "Microsoft Genuine Diagnostics Tool" results are lower. I also tried to reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on the Microsoft Web site and found a windows "0x80070005" error code also known as "access denied." Something to do with registry permissions I think. A boot minimum, then run the Microsoft fixit would fix the issue im having with windows update.

    Windows could not search for new updates and gives the error code "80004002" I tried to reinstall UpdateAgent (fatal error encountered) and I tried the MSFixIt and the automatic troubleshooter. Also tried everything to this forum and nothing helps: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/460975/windows-update-code-80004002/

    I have looked everywhere and tried everything. Help me the microsoft community, you're my only hope.

    Hello

    Thank you for your update on the issue.

    Since you have already done SFC scan, I suggest you perform a repair installation (upgrade Inplace). There seems to be some corruption of system files and the repair facility should be able to fix them.

    Note: before proceeding with the installation of repair, I suggest you make a backup of all your data.

    Backup your files: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-your-files

    To perform a repair installation, follow the steps in the following article:

    I own an old Satellite Pro 460 CDT including enhanced Port Replicator III (P1, 166 MHz), installed is Windows 2000 SP 4.

    Manager device shows me there is a problem with the USB controllers, there is an "unsupported NEC USB-to-PCI-Openhost-Controller", the driver has not been installed by Windows. Uninstall and new material research will not change anything.

    USB is necessary for the intended use.

    Then, is less for a driver job?

    Hi, Ralf

    Problem is that this device is not supported for Win 2000 and load on the Toshiba download page, you will not find anything. I know, this unit is about 10 years old and I think you expect a little too much of this good old classic.

    If you want to use with a maximum and preinstalled well performance install support OS Win 95. For Win 95, you will find all the drivers and tools on Toshiba download page.
