• Cannot access the drive after you type the correct password for BitLocker. Access is denied.

  Hi all!

  I really have a problem with my disc drive BitLocker encrypted.

  On my PC at the beginning (from 2009), with OS win7, I encrypted my external WD 500 GB MY BOOK hard drive.

  Unfortunately, old PC died:(et il y a un problème.)

  Now on my new computer with win7 OS or another, I can't access my WD 500 GB MY BOOK external hard drive?

  my first try the solution: I try to unlock the drive with my correct password and everything seems OK, drive is unlocked, but when I try to enter the disk I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

  After that, I try another option.

  try my second solution: In Control Panel > system and security > BitLocker Drive Encriptación I chose my encrypted disk and try to decrypt the drive. After maybe 7 hours and 99 percent, I got a pop-up message with the error. I don't remember now exactly how was the message.

  Now, when I log on windows, on another device (laptop) when I attach my WD 500 GB MY BOOKoutside, drive in my computer , I have the following status: my external WD MY BOOK 500 GBhard drive is unlocked, visible and recognized as a drive J:\, but I can't access it.

  When I try to enter again the drive, I have the popup alert message: location is not available. J:\ is not available. Access is denied.

  Also, I have the correct password and BitLocker recovery key stored correctly the USB onmy.

  Help, please

  Best.

• How can I fix NVIDIA Graphics Driver included with Vista, Sony VAIO laptop?

  My Sony VAIO laptop works for a few years now without many problems (difficult). But all of a sudden (not not after installation of software/hardware) the computer turns off. Now when I turn it on, the loading screens have graphical bugs and then I get a blue screen crash. Then it shuts down, reboots and asks if I want to run in safe mode. If I run it in normal Mode, the same problem occurs. If I run in Mode safe (networking works too), everything works as it should in Mode without failure. A problem report comes up saying 'address a problem with NVIDIA Graphics Driver NVIDIA Graphics Driver has stopped working properly.  An update of the driver, as appropriate, could prevent this problem does not happen. "I am very good with computers, but it's something that I have no idea how fix." What should I do?

  A few days ago, my mouse integrated on my computer laptop everything just stopped working unexpectedly.  I restart my computer and on the login screen, I realized that my keyboard did not work also.  I got my hands on a keyboard and a usb mouse and managed to integrate windows where I tried a restore system since a few days earlier.  When I started my computer, I was greeted with a screen icon and mouse balc.  After having tried everything, I backed up my hard drive and did install a clean windows 7.  My mouse and keyboard still do not work.  The computer recognize my keyboard, but not my mouse, and I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers.  I have reset the BIOS, everything.  I should mention that the keyboard works fine in the configuration menu of f2 and f8 one too.  It seems just, nothing associated Windows.  In addition, the mouse and keyboard do not work in safe mode.  suggestions please!  My computer is a Sony Vaio laptop, around the age of 3 months.

  Given that the laptop has just 3 months, get in touch with Sony VAIO support:

  Hello

  I just got a laptop with windows 7 on it and I want to connect to my other PC for it, they are on the same network through a router. the PC can see and access the laptop without asking for a user name and password but the laptop cannot access the PC because it asks me a username and password that I don't know.

  Maybe this can help.

  Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

  Group residential network = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

  Working network = fundamentally similar to previous methods of sharing that allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.
  
  Public share = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

  For the best newspaper of the results of each computer screen system and together all computers on a network of the same name, while each computer has its own unique name.

  Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

  General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
  Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  If your network consists only of Win 7 and you want a simple network, use it.

  Is there a question here?

  Read your manuals and find a way to use your laptop computer based on the instructions from Sony to connect external (including projectors) monitors for the laptop.  Usually a connection (as you said Windows XP where you have published, probably VGA) for the monitor and a few buttons to tell the laptop to mirror or extend the display to the second monitor.

• iPhone will not connect with iTunes on a Sony Vaio laptop (Windows 7)

  I can't connect my iPhone to iTunes on my Sony Vaio laptop. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes several times, as recommended on the Apple Support communities, nothing helps. I also deleted and set my phone from scratch. The device is recognized as a storage device, but not iTunes. Can someone please advise as to why this would be the case? As far as I know, everything on my laptop is up-to-date and the phone will not always be recognized.
