  • USB flash drive receives an error "volume does not contain a recognized file system" in Windows 7

    I plugged my USB on a windows 7. He always invites me to analyze and correct or cancel. I cancelled each time, but I got bored with it popping up each time, so I said to investigate and fix.  A loading screen came so I waited patiently. After that it asks me to format my USB flash drive. I can't format it but because I have files from work to home and all my other personal files out there. So I cancelled the format, but every time that I plug it into my computer it asks t format. I even plugged in on a computer running windows XP and wanted to get in shape. When I try to run it without formatting as it is said, "E:\ is not accessible. The volume does not contain a recognized file system. Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted. "My question is... what we Windows 7 to my USB and how can I recover my data?

    This is common with USB drives used on different operating systems. It happens alwaysto me when I use my drive to work (which is managed since my MacBook Pro) on Vista and Windows 7 client computers. Like you, I learned the hard way you must cancel the digitization of Vista/Win7. The only thing to do at this stage is to connect the player to a computer that can read the files OR use the software of data recovery on it to get the files. I believe that Recuva can do it for free. Format the Flash DRIVE, then start again. Either way, you don't want to use a USB key as a single backup of important files because - as you have unfortunately discovered - stuff happens.

  • MBR - Volume does not contain a file system recognized - after bootrec options

    I was unable to install the Vista SP2 (as it appeared later, because of a Grub boot loader installed by Linux). I tried to reconfigure the bootloader and the partitions (which allows to boot directly into Windows), but after several bootloader configurations (load different partitions as well as MBR) and some partition resizing (resize incl. NTFS partition). Windows unbootable.

    I tried Windows Rescue Disk:

    Bootrec /fixmbr succeeded

    Bootrec /fixboot did not work until I made the /scanos (including iedentified, after having disassembled the NTFS Linux partition and putting the flag of boot loader in the MBR and the default option of grub in Windows, there are 1 installation of Windows in C:\windows).

    If I then repeated bootrec /fixboot he gave the message that the volume does not contain a recognized file system.

    I also did bootrec /rebuildBCD (after renamed it bcd), ultimately without success.

    In total, the situation of 'better' I reached was either a Windows startup with a cursor flashing something happens (apparently find the partition but not any which boot file or OS); or the spare arriving to determine that there is a partition of Windows Vista, but (following the first option to simply repair the system) 'no errors detected. " The second option here, "Restore to a previous point" refers to that there is no previous such restore point.

    It took me about 24 hours now to finally get SP2 installed, but obviously with only murkier.

    Hi Willem W,.

    I suggest trying the (step 1 in the link) Startup Repair and then manually rebuild the BCD (Boot Configuration data) using Bcdedit.exe (step 3) in the article below and check if this solves the problem

    Error message when you start Windows Vista: "the Windows Boot Configuration data file is missing required information".

  • The food does not contain an image valid podcast.

    Hello

    I asked this question before and the control point was that the image is in https. We addressed it now and the image is http, but I always get the error the food does not contain an image valid podcast. Podcast images must be at least 1400 x 1400 pixels.

    Flow validates correctly as well, although when tested in iTunes, the episode does not show.

    Here is my feed - http://feeds.feedburner.com/accenture/stagemanual

    Thanks in advance.

    I checked in the Podcasts connect and the error is not with the image, but it complains that it cannot download episodes of your EDI. This is because the URL of your media file is

    http://link.videoplatform.limelight.com/Media/?Mediaid=01bc098836b64009915f2aa89 00aa4ab & amp; width = 480 & amp; height = 321 & amp; playerForm = player

    It is a Flash drive. You can't use a player incorporated - you must provide a direct link to the media file. and it's not Flash. For video, it must be .m4v, .mov or .mp4. The file should play in a browser when you enter the URL, not force a download or appear in a player.

  • How to check that the variable 'does not contain' value?

    Hello

    I use CP 7.0.1.237.

    We want to use the widget text box for a custom quiz and verify a response. While we understood how to check the existence of certain key words, we are not able to find a way to check that the content does NOT contain certain keywords. For example, we want to ensure that the text entered in this widget does not contain a "Transformation" and "Non-compliant.

    Is this possible at all?

    Thank you

    Anthony

    Anthony, it works perfectly. Created this conditional action with 4 decisions. I used the interaction of training text scrolling in CP8 (because now you can control the variable - which means I might have a Reset button):

    First decision:

    Second decision (the third is similar to the following)

    Fourth and final decision

    I put the variable words (v_first... v_fifth), it's a reflex I use since I shared actions that much. The variable associated to the ETB (you can now reset an empty var in CP8) is v_TextArea and the Boolean value that will decide if positive feedback (StarOK) should be shown is v_TA_OK. If you want to display a negative feedback, put this in the ELSE part of the final decision.

    FYI: it took 15 minutes, including the creation of assets and the variables and tests. Personally I would have needed more time to do it in JS, but that's just me.

  • installed the latest updates of windows 7... now the computer does not recognize my video files avi... says "format not supported".

    I have installed the latest updates (02/27/10) and when I open sony vegas to edit some files avi... they were offline... when I tried to read with windows media player it says format not supported... before when I played these files, they would not have to synchronize audio... it never happened with my other computer with Vista... system restore solved the problem of format not supported... but so far has caused this problem? and what about the problems of synchronization? the files seem to sync when played with the hp program...

    Hi derlonewolf,
     
    Because you performed a System Restore you would not be able to determine which update problem from occurring. You will have to wait for the update to your computer to determine the update that caused the problem. The update does not necessarily cause the problem to occur again. However, you can view the history of updates to updating history.
     
    1. open the control panel (all items view), and click the Windows Update icon.
     
    2. click on the link to view update history.
     
    3. to view the details of a single Windows Update-
     
    (A) select and right-click on a Windows Update list, and then click details.
     
    (B) click on close when finished.
     
    As far as the question of timing is concerened, you can scan SFC on your computer and check if the problem persists.

    Steps to perform a scan SFC:
     
    1. Click Start, click principally made programs, accessories, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow
     
    2. type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow
    [The command sfc /scannow. analysis of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.]
     
    A message appears indicating that "the system scan will start. Be patient, because the analysis may take some time
     
    3. If all the files require that a SFC replace will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Win7 DVD for this process to continue
     
    4. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.
     
    5. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.
     
    Check the link below for further guidance on scan SFC - mentioned
     
    You can also make manual updates instead of automatic updates and then see what are updates will be installed on the computer.

  • the location does not contain the driver * for required processor architecture

    I'm trying to set up my hp laserjet as a shared printer on my network domestic. The printer is attached to a Win7 x 64 machine, all the other computers on my network are XP 32. When I try to load additional x 86 drivers on Win7 computer, I get the message: "the specified location does not contain the driver hp LaserJet 1320 PCL 5 for the architecture of processor required. I get this message, no matter which driver I try. I have tried several different choices of drivers XP 32. What I am doing wrong? where can I find the correct driver?

    Everyone,

    After the announcement yesterday, all of a sudden today, in Windows Update, there is a new driver PCL 6, Microsoft Update. I had to uninstall the printer in order to obtain this update to install. After this update, the shared property now would allow me to install the x 86 drivers. This update was not there yesterday, got to admit that Microsoft has acted quickly on this one.

    Brian & Jack thanks for trying to help!

  • The source does not contain the Image of HP recovery

    I am trying to create a bootable USB key with the HP recovery disk creation utility. After having moaned that my 8560w was working on battery power, and that he has no place on a USB stick formatted to FAT32 16 GB, I finished in the next screen that says ""source drive does not contain the Image of HP recovery " which is wrong: D partition is the main, contains the recovery disc." So what? Cannot create a recovery disk? Also note that I have no Recovery Manager (?) and F11 never worked (?).

    Is there a driver I need to install or any solution that these blue lights for the volume can function again?
