• Is it dangerous for the HARD drive, the icon she samples D:\?

  Is it dangerous for the HARD drive, the icon she samples D:\?
  .. The example of the start menu button is also in D:\. (Classic interface)

  I downloaded the 'old' Nice and exchanged icons on my desktop.
  The user, workstation, trash ones and two new folders using the icons for them also.

  The question is - I moved these new icon samples in D:\ (which is not the main drive) and I was wondering if the PIN that reads the HARD drive is physically mobile all the time on one side of the disc to another. Because the icons are located in the D:\... and these icons are defined on elements that are found in C:\, lol!

  so I was wondering If it damage the hard drive (physically)!

  Please answer, thank you!

  Hi Kaloyan,

  Keep the icons in the D drive or any other drive which is not the main drive does not affect the HARD drive somehow.

• Wizard BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  How is it assistant BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  This has two questions:

  1 capacity of SSDS faster for Fusion drive has been reduced. Therefore less effective for the reader of the merger. For example if I need to create a partition of 80G for my windows bootcamp partition, only 48 G will be left in the drive of the merger.

  2. ability of the bootcamp windows partition becomes very limited, cannot be greater than 120 G.

  3. even when I try to fuse out of the drive of fusion in the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD disk, and then run the BootCamp assistant to create the bootcamp partition start from scratch to reinstall El Capitan only on the HARD drive (without drive Fusion), it won't let me do anything, it just shows an error that says something like "a person has created additional partitions on this drive please select. another disc. But there is nothing else to choose.

  Before my (5 K, 27 inches, end of 2014 retina) to El Capitan Yosemite, I was able to use the previous version of the wizard BootCamp 5.x to create the partition, bootcamp on the drive of the merger. And it will be divided in the fuser unit in two and insert the Bootcamp partition (with the size I chose, which can go up to 1 TB) between two partitions of MAC OSX.

  The disk partitions resulting from it, will be the partition MAC OS x on the SSD, the partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #1, partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #3.

  Then there is the BootCamp partition on the HARD drive partition #2.

  Is there a way to get what I need?

  That is what has been described in this notice of two canoes?

  Installation of Windows on a Boot Camp partition on a drive of TB Fusion 3

  Thank you.

  After having worked on those weeks, I realized that I need very painfully (by first going back to Yosemite and bootcamp 5 to escape all the limitations of El Capitan and BootCamp 6) I want to share here. Someone at - it other smarter solutions welcome.

  Note these steps and mentioned drivers only work for my version of iMAC, retina 5K late 2014. If you have other material, please search on the web to see which driver will work first. And all of these steps are destructive and assumed that you first take backup. It is only shared for interest only. Readers will have to bear your own risk.

  A. take backup

  1. take a backup completes my iMac Fusion Drive using Time Machine. Then restart with a Yosemite USB installation and select Terminal from the menu on the top bar.

  B. fuse out of the merger in two physical disks drive: SSD + HDD

  1. in the terminal, type the commands in show what the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the disc fusion)

  Cs diskutil list

  2. in the terminal, type commands for the fuse of the fuser unit and separate them to an SSD and a HARD drive.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the drive of the merger. There are many articles in this community on how this could be done,

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  This should finish within 30 minutes. If you have taken more time, this means that your reader of fusion has been altered somehow.

  I hit this issue too.  To use this command to remove the fusion drive hung up, and I need to do the hard to scramble a few sections of data in the hard disk partition table using the controls to tell the OSX this hard drive is a new without partitions:

  Cat >/dev/random /dev/disk0 (where/dev/disk0 is the SSD)

  and repeat for disk1/dev/disk1 which is the HARD drive in my case).

  This command will not return anything, but expect to press Ctrl-Z to end after 1 minute.

  2 create independent partitions (non-fusionend) for the installation of OSX.

  Borne Terminal output, and select disk utility, in disk utility, select the drive to HARD disk (and not on the partition), you will see the error message and you will be asked if you want to fix the fuser unit, click on ignore. Then wipe the HARD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"HARD drive".

  3. Repeat step 2, and then erase the SSD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"SSD ".

  C. install on the HARD disk as drive didier autonomous not fusion.

  1. go to Yosemite install screen and proceed with the installation of a clean copy of Yosemite to the iMAC. then connect you.

  D. use BootCamp Yosemite f5 to install windows.

  1. launch Yosemite bootcamp.

  2. check the two checkboxes for creating the USB drive to install windows 7 or a later version, and to download the windows supports the Apple software.  Do not click on the last box to install or remove windows pie creating real bootcamp partition again.

  3. it may take several hours to complete this function of your internet b/w and also performance of your USB drive.

  4. If you install Windows 7 (like me), then the downloaded drivers will not work for you, this will cause the issue of the device driver appleDSS.sys does not like this driver and others are too recent for windows 7 to use.  Also, your keyboard and mouse may not work even if you try to plug in a USB external keyboard or a mouse. You need to replace the drivers downloaded by others (the Boot Camp 5.1.5769 drivers that I find in this link: Software Support of Boot Camp 5.1.5769.) (Note: this driver is material specific only works for my iMAC model).  Once you have downloaded it, copy the two files in the root directory of the USB installation to replace the original ones. It's specific and material available for download somewhere on the Apple Site.

  -From the Finder, delete the $WinPE$ and the Boot Camp of the FLASH PLAYER files.

  -Expand the old drivers for Boot Camp 5.1.5769 (two records and another file) on your desktop.

  -Copy the $WinPE$ and records of Boot Camp in the FLASH PLAYER.

  5. open Boot Camp Assistant again and only select the third option, install Windows 7.

  It will show you the screen to select what installation disk, select HARD drive.

  Then drag the slide bar to select the size of the Bootcamp partition for windows you want, knowing that there is a restriction for windows installed using training camp on a MAC that the last byte of the BootCamp partition must reside in the first byte of the 2.2 T of each physical hard drive.

  For my case, I need only 500G for bootcamp and leaving behind 1.7 to for my MAC OSX partition immediately after the bootcamp partition and an another 0.8 T MAC OSX partition after him. 1.7 TB and the partition of MAC OS x 0.8 TB well exploited in the meantime bootcamp partition, will be merged into a fusion drive by Bootcamp. Thus, you will end up with total 2.5 TB of disk space in a logical drive - fuser.

  6. continue the process to partition the hard drive, then it will restart automatically in windows installation mode, install windows.

  7. once the installation is complete, check that windows is functioning correctly.

  E. Si you want to upgrade to windows 10 Windows 7.

  1 if you plan to upgrade to windows 10, you'll find that the windows IE v.8 7 is no longer works and had many problems to load the page.  Then when you try to download the latest version of Internet Explorer, you get an error that you need at least windows 7 SP1 to support the last IE.  Life is too complicated, just download the google Chrome browser, then search for download windows 10 and then run the Microsoft valuation tool to upgrade.

  2 but before upgrade you, unplug all your MAC USB drives, otherwise, you will find that, after having spent an hour downloading the windows 10 software, the upgrade will fail with the error "/ dynamicupdate...» ». It is an inexplicable mistake that no one seems to understand why. There are articles with proven results that the removal of all USB drives before running the windows 10 upgrade tool will correct this problem.

  F. reinstall OSX El Capitan

  Once your target windows system (if windows 7, windows 8 or windows 10) works very well.  You can continue to create again your Fusion drive and reinstall OSX El Capitan.

  1. Insert the install of OSX Yosemite rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type the command 'diskutil list cs' and you should see nothing to prove that there are no existing fusion drive yet.

  6 type the 'diskutil list' command to list all disks and partitions.

  The SSD has two partitions, the/dev/disk0s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk0s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD around 121 G.

  The HARD drive has two partitions, the/dev/disk1s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk1s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD.

  G. delete the logical storage of nucleus on the HARD disk drive and it refuses with the DSS to form a merger with faster performance disc

  1. Insert the install of OSX El Capitan rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type orders for (to show what are the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the logical drive). You should see the logical volume to basic storage group created using two partitions on the hard drive, 1.7 TB and TB 0.8 created when we run the Yosemite Bootcamp to install windows.

  Cs diskutil list

  6. in the terminal, type commands to delete logical drives from basic storage.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the logical drive.

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  7. tap "diskutil list" command lists all the resulting partitions. You should see that the HARD drive has the following partitions.

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 121,3 disk0

  1: disk0s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

  3: disk1s3 Apple_Boot Recovery 650.0 MB HD

  4: Microsoft database BOOTCAMP 503.0 GB disk1s4

  5: Apple_HFS 801,4 Untitled GB disk1s5

  8 type the following commands to create the logical volumes group, named "myLVG" (or the name) of fuser using the usable for OSX to the SSD and HDD partitions.

  diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2 disk1s5

  Note: Mark the group id of logical volume shown in the results.

  In my case, I want to book the last partition as standalone partition disk1s5 no-fusionend, so I can use it to raise the back, or format it in FAT32 to allow the exchange of data between the MAC and boot camp.

  So, I do not understand this last partition in the drive of the merger. in my case, the command that I used is: diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2

  9 create logical volumes named "Macintosh HD" (or you call it) on the logical volume group we just created for the reader of the merger.

  diskutil createvolume logical volume group ID jhfs cs + 'Macintosh HD' 100%

• Can no longer open the hard drive

  Hello

  I used my external hdd to 4 TB (connected to USB 3.0 to copy data through the CCC on another external hard drive.

  Somewhere in the Middle he stopped.

  When I try to open the 4 to (by clicking on it) the finder crashes - every time.

  I put inside my MP 4 TB hard drive, but the same thing happens. The continuous finder crashing, all the desktop icons disappear and this crash notice window: the last time that you open the Finder it quit unexpectedly...

  and it keeps.

  I can access the hard drive via the CCC and copy data from other disks. But there is 3.92 TB of data and I have to first find the space.

  In the initialization of the PC world, I would say that the Master Boot Record is damaged. But I don't know what it is on a hard drive to the Mac Format.

• Can I replace the hard drive of my Satellite A100?

  I have a Satellite A100 - 033 PSAANE, running Windows Vista Home Basic Edition. The hard drive is 60 g. I save almost all of my data to an external hard drive, but nevertheless hard drive eventually won't have enough space for the growing number of programs that I have installed various temporary files, etc.. For example, I would like to install VirtualBox and run XP (Ido have a copy), and Linux and perhaps a few other systems operating within it, but that is likely to consume more of hard drive space I have available.

  Anyone know if it is possible to get out of my existing hard drive and replace it with another of higher capacity? Is this possible?

  I need to reinstall Vista on the new disc, from the emergency disk that came with the PC. I don't mind this, but will be Windows Vista "recognized" when I try to install the new hard disk?

  Sorry if these questions seem naïve, but I don't know how to put a new hard drive in a laptop computer, or even if it is possible. I bought the Toshiba in February 2007, which was just after Vista had been released. I had not given the choice of XP: Vista was the only Toshiba operating system provide at this time. I was assured that a 60G hard drive would be perfect for Vista, but I have to tell you that, in my opinion, that I was wrongly advised, and that Toshiba should never have released a 60G machine for use with Vista. Where my wish to have a hard drive with a larger capacity.

  Yes, you can install a larger capacity HARD drive. In my view, the A100 can take any size SATA 2.5 "HDD, so you should be able to successfully install a 250 GB or 320 GB.

  In terms of Windows, you can reinstall using the Toshiba Recovery disk came with the laptop.

  Directions for use:

  Remove the screws from the cover of the HARD drive based on the laptop to access the HARD disk.
  Pull the HARD drive out
  Transfer media cradle of HARD drive to the new HARD disk
  Slide in the new HARD drive and screw the cover of the HARD drive.
  Turn on the laptop and press F12 to access the start menu.
  Insert your recovery disk and choose CD icon to boot from it.
  Follow the prompts to install Windows.
  Connect your original HDD to the A100 using a USB adapter to restore your files/documents.

  PS. Don't forget to back up your important files regularly. HARD drives can fail at any time, since they have delicate moving parts, even when new.

• I'm trying to interconnect a XP home and a XP Pro with a Firewire 1394 through a Maxtor One Touch 4 Plus HARD drive cable to share the HARD drive and also run a home network.

  Is it possible for me to take the files of XP Home that has installed 1394 controller and use the 4 files that I found marked 1394 in I386 to form the controller on my XP Pro, more driver 1394 in \WINDOWS\System32\DRIVERS to close the loop and enable the ethernet connection both 1394 on both computers to have two computers connected to the Maxtor One Touch 4 Plus as well as HARD drive the network. I was hoping maybe even replace the ethernet cable and use the connection 1394 through the Maxtor which has several types of connectors on it.  Again, I am trying to install a controller 1394 on a computer that has no 1394, than USB 2.0. so that the XP Pro machine will recognize the 1394 card with my home XP firewire cable to the Maxtor HDD which it is already connected to the XP Pro via USB 2.0? I have you confused yet?

  I found a post of S.W. video dated the 05/01/11, which has been handled by Gokul T and treated with the Firewire cable and video on a newer operating system, so I thought I would test Gokul T or someone else to resolve this situation. I couldn't find a controller IEEE 1394 I could just download and install on my XP Pro machine. These are the two Dell, is an inspiron 5100 with installed 1394 with taking and the GX280 is one without the 1394 controller installed, or the socket.

  You will need a firewire to XP Pro card. The drivers are already on the hard drive. Once the card is installed, you will see the icon of the network for this adapter. So you can use it.

  The reason why there is no 1394 net adapter on XP Pro is now, because there is no firewire card

• XP is not start properly, important data files on the hard drive, location unknown such as e-mail addresses, individual emails and favorite links on Internet Explorer. The system is damaged irreparably, what is the solution?

  I need ideas to solve this problem.

  You can retrieve the data without being able to get into Windows. The methods described require a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself best, and if a better course of action would be to take the machine to a local professional with a good reputation instead. If you choose to do, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it- http://www.pendrivelinux.com

• Replace the hard drive on dv6-2136el

  Hello

  My dv6-2136el hard drive is broken and I need to replace it.

  Which hard drive I buy in order to restore the computer with the recovery disks that I created? It must be the same disk or can I buy a bigger or faster?

  To reinstall the system enough to replace the hard drive and start the recovery cd?

  Thank you for your valuable suggestions,

  Hello

  The best idea is to open the Windows Device Manager and check if there are any entries with a yellow icon against them - pilots who are not always installed by Windows 7 automatically can include the card reader, DriveGuard, validity sensor driver if you have a fingerprint reader.

  Regarding the partitioning of the HARD disk, there should be no problem using Windows disk management tool to reduce the Partition C - 60 GB is fine for the operating system.  Also remember that you can have only 4 partitions primary (you will already have 2 - hidden and system that contains startup files and the C partition).

  Kind regards

• HP replaces the hard drive: my recovery or their disks?

  The hard drive on my G62-234DX, purchased in August 2010, failed during the warranty period. HP sent me a replacement with recovery disks. I used them.

  Office Starter 2010 came loaded on the laptop, but it isn't on the supplied recovery disks.  HP says they can give me is more than software.

  Can I retrieve it somehow from the recovery discs I did last August?

  Thank you.

  Hello:

  I don't think it's possible because there is no setup file.

  He had a protected drive Q who had Office 2010 startup files, and once you have started the initial installation of the icon on your desktop, that's all.

  HP is correct. There is no stand-alone Office Starter 2010 installation package. It is only installed on the once new PC. It may have been on the recovery partition, but I can't say for sure, and it's a moot point since your original hard drive disappeared.

  I have several hard drives internal and 1 external hard drive.  The external hard drive has always had its own unique icon and internal hard drives all have the same icon image.

  But somehow, the external drive now has an image of the icon of an internal hard drive, and my biggest drive, a HD 1.5 TB, shows the icon used previously by the external hard drive.

  I can't understand why this happened, or how to redefine the way it was.  Don't pose any problem of performance, its just confusing because I saw this image external drive so long I'll automatically for the picture if my computer or Explorer and now that means that I often select the wrong drive.

  I click on properties > customize and select change image folder, then select a hard drive icon I want for each player, but he never changes the icon.  And I'm pointing to an appropriate *.ico icon image file.

  Anyone has any ideas on this issue?

  Thank you.

  Move the Autorun.inf file and the Mxoicon6.ico file on your external hard drive, and restart the computer. Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience
