• How to transfer programs to the newly added existing SSD HARD drive

  I use a PC with Windows XP 3 SP 3 on a 250 MB HARD drive. Recently, I upgraded my processor and motherboard to a 3.00 gigahertz Intel Pentium Dual-Core
  64 kilobyte primary memory cache/2048 KB secondary memory cache/64-bit ready/Multi-core (2 total) / not hyper-thread and a BIOSTAR G41D3 + 6.0/Bus Clock: 200 megahertz/BIOS: American Megatrends Inc.. 080015 28/12/2010. Because of the problems with the upgrade from XP to Windows 7 and also to increase startup speed and current programs, I bought a Kingston V + S2 96 GB SSD SVP100. I intend to install Windows 7 on SSD and would like to transfer my programs for the SSD to accelerate their.  Is this possible or do I have to reinstall it on the SSD?

  If I install the programs on the SSD I will be able to access the data on the HDD (documents, pictures and music) of the SSD?

  Any help would be accepted with gratitude.

  Hi, Smcc42,

  It is not possible to copy and paste any programs installed on another disk - you must reinstall them because their files are located in various locations on the disk and because of the registry entries.

  This can make the relocation process a little easier:

• Lightroom is showing corrupted files and an "end of file unexpected has occurred" when the original photo in my hard drive external is fine.

  The corrupted file is coming with the lines, colors and split into two or three. Is there something I can do to fix this? It's enough to the point where I want to uninstall it, its happening too often boring! Here are pictures of work I can't go back and reshoot.

  It is very probably a clerical error somewhere, it could be the card unit photo, card reader or USB cable or USB port, hard drive, or even computer memory. I suggest try different hardware to transfer photos in Lightroom to see if the problem is the card reader or cable USB or USB port, or hard drive. If you have access to another computer, I would transfer the file to the other computer to see if it has the same problems in Lightroom on the other computer.

• How to change back to SSD HARD drive?

  My mcbook pro comes with the original 500 GB of HARD drive. When he ran with a problem, I went to an apple repair shop. Problem was in the charts, and he suggested the HARD drive to be replaced by a 120 GB SDD. So it has been replaced, but the guy on the left HARD drive as a storage device. Moment where DDI is left with small space and when I update to OS X El Capitan of OS Sierra, it had to be installed in the HARD disk drive. Could someone please give instructions to install the new OS to the SDS to lose all my data and the current configuration and it is also possible to install windows XP on the HARD drive and 10.  Either by the way, I got Windows 10 and XP shared with the SDS via parallels. Thank you

  How to use an SSD with your HARD drive If you want to use an SSD as boot with your existing HARD disk drive, as the disk 'data', here is what you can do. After installing the SSD, you need to partition and format the SSD using disc utility disc. Then install OS X on the SSD. Once installed OSX boot from SSD. Startup disk preferences to set up the SSD as the boot volume. Open the preferences users and groups. Click the lock and authenticate you. Or CTRL - RIGHT click on your username account list in the sidebar and select Advanced Options in the context menu. You will see a field called "Home dir: ' on the far right, you will see an Edit button. Click on it. In the file dialog box, navigate to the location in house now located on the HARD disk (disk HARD/users/user_name /.) Select the folder, click the Open button. Restart the computer, as shown. When the computer starts, it will now use the home located on the HARD drive folder. Another more technical method involving the Terminal and the alias is discussed in depth here: using OS X with a SSD and HDD - Matt Gemmell configuration. It's my preferred approach because I can choose which records of the House, I want to on the HARD drive and I don't want to. For example, I like to keep Documents and library files on the SSD because I frequently access their content. Make sure that you keep the bootable system entirely on your HARD drive where you need it.

• Pavilion G-6 2209au: Pavilion G - 6 2209au exchange for SSD HARD drive

  Hello I have this have upgraded with 6 GB ram and now want to replace the disc for one SSD HARD drive, I read in the forms some how you need to change the bios when you do so, what measures are necessary for the ssd to function? I don't like about backing up files, I'll use as an external HARD drive. Also I have the apu a4 4300 m and would like to get 10 4600 m cpu is this hard to replace or should I pay someone? Thanks for the support

  That's what you have:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03551667

  It is the repair:

  Manual

  From the outset I see that you only have 2 GB of RAM. Very easy and inexpensive to spend at least 4 GB. See page 46.

  The motherboard is the motherboard. There is no upgrade available. However, you have the CPU AMD A4 and you might fall into a 10 - 4600M. See page 83. It would be a major update and only would no treatment faster, but would provide a slightly better video chip since it is a "APU" with processor and video on the same chip.

  Finally, you can exchange the mechanical drive to a SSD drive. The upgrade of the speed would be very noticeable.

  That @banhien meant, however, the cost of this can equal or exceed a new laptop. and almost certainly will if you need to pay a technician to do it. The first update I is the RAM, then the SSD and then the last would be the CPU. If you need any help post more come back.

• Satellite L50 - A-1 DG - with the new SSD HARD drive replacement

  Satellite L50 - A - 1 DG

  I would put my SSD in the PC and install win7 on it. But it does not work.

  I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  I tried to replace the SSD hard drive. Then the pc cannot start up. And I can't get into the bios or adjustment.

  Someone knows what's the problem?

  > I try to put the SSD into the DVD rom adapter. It can not been recognized in the bios.

  This does not work with all models of laptops.
  As far as I know that the laptop must support Slim Select Bay and the BIOS should also support this hardware option. But in your case, it doesn t.

  One possible solution is the use of SOLID-STATE drive instead of the HARD disk.

  You said that you are not able to access the BIOS after these updates.
  Well, before you do this (a SSD drive connection) you should access the BIOS and must disable secure boot and must set the start mode MSC mode.

  The comments appreciated.

• Replace T420s with a new SSD HARD drive

  Hello

  I wonderd if it is possible to replace with a new SSD HARD drive, while putting the HARD drive in the Bay of Ultra-slot.

  And if so, what SSD model should I buy, and how do I transfer the operating system and the data for the SSD?

  This SSD model will be compatible?

  Corsair neutron Series 120 GB SSD Sata III MLC 2.5 inches Retail

  Thank you very much

  Guy

  Yes, what you are proposing is quite feasible. You will need an adapter Ultabay to organize your HARD drive in the Ultrabay housing on your system. These are available from Lenovo, but are relatively expensive. You can get a much less expensive (~ $ 10) a compatible version on eBay. It is not as well finished as the real issue, but it works well.

  The best way to transfer everything on your SSD is "clone" of your HARD disk using a software as Acronis True Image. If your current HARD drive is made by Western Digital or Seagate you can get a free copy of Acronis on their Web site. Put the SSD in the SATA drive Bay and the HARD disk in the UtlraBay. Set the T520 to start from the Ultrabay, install/run Acronis here and make a clone for the SSD. Then boot from the SSD and you'll be all set.

  With respect to the SSD, many people here have had good success with Crucial M4, 520 Intel and Samsung 830. I guess that Corsair works perfectly as well, but I didn't know all messages from people here who have done so.

  Before ordering a SSD confirm if the HARD drive is 7 mm or 9.5 mm thick. Then order the same thickness SSD. This way, you will be able to use the metal rails caddy and rubber who now hold your HARD drive to contain the SSD.

• Can I replace the SSD HARD drive in my sve15123cv

  Hello

  I use sve15123cv, I want to replace the SSD HARD drive. Is this possible?

  Which SSD is good?

  Hi zunnun,.

  Thank you for visiting the Sony community!

  It is possible, but we cannot guarantee that it will work without any problem. You need to consider certain things such as the specification of the HARD drive, thickness or dimension of the SSD that you plan to install first. Your Vaio SVE15123CV is a non American model. Unfortunately, we do not have full details and specifications of your machine. However, you can coordinate with the Sony support based on your location or where you bought the device.

  For further assistance about your concern, please contact the representative offices of offices/Sony Sony nearest your place of residence in the Asia-Pacific region http://www.sony-asia.com/countryselector.html?hpid=countryselector:AsiaPacific. Due to the proximity, they are in a better position to respond to your questions or concerns.

• iMac mid-2010 for one SSD HARD drive replacement

  Hello

  After reflection, (mainly in the meantime my principalement en attendant mon iMac iMac starts!), I decided to replace the HDD with a SSD. After having done some research and I watch YouTube videos, I'm not sure if I have bought the right tools for the job. Could someone please help me and let me know if I'm not on the right track here.

  The iMac in question is a model 27 "2010.

  Here's what I have on order:

  • Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD
  • OWC online Thermal Sensor HDD upgrade 2009-2010 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017OEQKV2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie= UTF8 & PSC = 1
  • Kingston Technology 2.5 to 3.5 inches support and live for SSD - UTF8 & PSC = 1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00DGL2X7I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=
  • 2 x cable high quality Original SATA 6 GB/s 3 - Gigabyte https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BBYOD3E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie= UTF8 & PSC = 1

  I also ordered suction cups and relevant screwdrivers.

  I intend to completely remove the current HD and its replacement by the new SSD. Am I right assuming that I will just remove current thermal sensor cable and replace it with the one OWC? I'm not 100% on this one.

  Cheers in advance

  Ian

  Yes, you just remove the thermal sensor and place the OWC in line sensor (the sticker pad can be placed on the support of 2, 5-2, 5 (as the SSD will not have a lot of heat).  The longer a cable must be re-attached the logic board.

  The only suggestion I have would be - it probably need not SATA cables for this-> upgrade SSD HARD drive, thermal line sensor is long enough - in fact, too long that I had to press them to be shaped in the iMac.  Unless you plan to add other SSD in the system, since the iMac 2010 with SATA 2 (3 GB/s speed).

  Good luck

• 17i wanted to replace SSD HARD drive

  I just bought a new screen Envy 17 t tactile image with a 1 TB HARD drive 5400 RPM. At the same time, I bought a new Samsung 840EVO 500 GB SSD with the intention to replace the slower HARD disk with the fastest SSD. I thought it would be a simple switch (I replaced the older drive in my laptop with no problems). I thought it would be a few screws and a small sign removed from underneath the laptop and everything would be made.

  But after I got the new machine, I got everything install and running and left information for the SSD HARD drive, I have everything off and returned the machine and unfortunately... There are no signs (as described in the documentation) that I expected. She only siingle piece!

  How to HARD drive to replace it? Am I supposed to remove all the screws and remove the bottom or top (where the keyboard is) does jump off and you have access from above?

  Help!

  This model requires the removal of the top cover to the hard disk:

• Can I install SSD hard drive in the version of Windows XP Media Center 2002.

  Original title: ssd hard drives

  I have a Sony desktop running Windows XP Media Center version 2002. I am thinging about buying an SSD hard drive. I was wondering if it will work

  Hi Mike,

  Thank you for the question to Microsoft Community. I'll give my best to help you.

  From your problem description, I understand you want to find out if the SSD is supported in the version of Windows XP Media Center 2002.

  What is the model number of the computer?

  Windows Media center supports the SSDS. However, when buying, check with the manufacturer if the hard drive is compatible with Windows Media Center operating system in 2002.

• If I reinstall the original software, which removes the existing files from my hard drive?

  I accidentally deleted programs that my computer needs access to the Internet.  I tried the system restore, but nothing.  Can I re - install the original software without compromising documents on the hard drive?

  Thank you

  Jill

  Hi Jill,

  Yes, reinstall the programs would not remove the existing files on your hard drive. Your old files remain unchanged

• I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now want to import some RAF b HD files

  I use LR 6.5 on an iMAC. Files RAF Fuji originally, I imported from an SD card worked and exported in the form of PSD and then after saving the files on an external hard drive RAF erased from Lightroom. I now have to import some RAF of the HD files but LR shows them as dazed out and said that they have already been imported when I hover over the thumbnail. I have this problem when importing files in the same HD Canon CR2, and who have been treated exactly the same. Anyone got a clue as to why this is happening? Thanks, Phil

  Hi Phil,

  If Lightroom then reads these as duplicate files, it shows that they are already present in your Lightroom Catalog.

  You can search by file name and check if the image is present in your library.

  Kind regards

• "Re: Toshiba M10: replacement 7 k 200 with Advanced Format HARD drive" 7 K 750 HDD

  Can we see problems with the replacement of the original Hitachi TravelStar 7 K 200 (200 GB) HDD, that went into my two year old Toshiba Tecra M10 - 11 X, with a so-called 'Advanced Format' 7 K 750 (750 GB or maybe 640 GB) hard drive?

  Like the original, I want to dual-boot the new disk using three partitions:
  * Windows 7 32-bit
  * Data
  * Windows XP
  and would probably clone one disk to another (by increasing the size of the partition!) with the v5 of Macrium Reflect.

  I read up on top of the TravelStar 7 K 750 form, the alignment tool from Hitachi, Microsoft KnowledgeBase article 982018 "an update that improves the compatibility of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 with the Advanced Format drives is available" Bit-tech http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/sto...t-hard-disks/1and so forth, but wonder if anyone has actually replaced the HDD with all original Advanced Format drives and could therefore have a certain experience to share?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  "I put t have experience using this advanced Format ' 7 K 750 HARD drive but in my opinion he should not a problem using this HARD drive.
  The laptop supports the SATA interface and if this HARD drive would also support the SATA controller, the HARD drive should be recognized too

  But of course, it is my personal opinion...
