• RAID 0 for a RAID configuration not "this computer's hardware may not supported booting from this drive.

  I want to install a new HARD drive in a tower of the mine to a friend. It was initially created as a RAID 0 configuration with two 160 GB HDD. The replacement is a single 1 TB of HARD drive. I get the message "this computer's hardware may not supported booting to this disk.» Am I missing an approach from a RAID 0 for a RAID configuration, no?

  Hi RegularPencils,

  I suggest that you check in the basic input/output system (BIOS), if you find an option to disable the RAID. If you find, disable the RAID and try to install Windows vista, check if it helps.

  Important: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• How can I get Nitro PC installed properly, so it does not say that he may not support a file or a codec required that it blocks and other problems.

  How can I get Nitro PC installed properly, so it does not say that he may not support a file or the required codec, which it does in Windows Media Player, everything seems to go through there and Nitro prevents me from opening photos or electronic-mail/transfer their. Also, what are the appropriate programs to run files in the documents library and photos. recently, I lost all my documents, the files are there but now empty. It happened a little while before had spoken, by buying the GoFlex Seagate plug of iYogi I was stupid enough to buy their storys. Now that I told them that I used to pay $ 400 to renew my contract, which has more than a year and a half left in this regard that they were still treat me worse than ever. I even bought a program that is supposed to protect your bank account, but only have a debit card which they protect not only credit cards, it was not even mentioned in the contract or the sales pitch. The Seagate GoFlex is sitting here unplugged after that they could not challenge or whatever it is to recover after at least 4 attempts. Brief this cowboy got scalped, but if I can get the Nitro to block all my stuff I would be off to a good start to correct things. Also, I had a printer that was supposed to be a fax with all sorts of other gadgets they had me plug with a wire and wireless and never had to use the fax once and continue receiving invalid messages when I try to put in place something like snapfish, which seems to be an automatic link to my set of requirements. I'm lost.

• Hardware does not support CVS mode?

  Hello

  Today, I get 2 new servers which will extend my current cluster, they are both HP ProLiant DL385 G6.

  In the cluster I have HP ProLiant DL385 G5 x 3, with 2 x AMD Opteron 2352 in each server (Quad core)

  In order to prepare the new servers, I checked up on top of the compability and I could see that servers were listed as supported with EVC mode. However when I try now to activate the CVS for the cluster, I get an error about VCA mode is not supported by the hardware. This page lists the AMD Opteron 23xx as supported: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003212 (generation 3), using the WebHCL, which also lists the servers in charge makes me a little comfused about why his does not work.

  I currently have ESX 3.5.0 build of the 213532 on the servers, plan to reinstall with ESXi 4.1 when new servers are set up in the same cluster of unload

  Servers was transferred yesterday from the old VC2.5 with the new VC4.1 which I have set up on a separate, new box. Other servers that I have on that (without other clusters) seem to work just OK, even improved 20 from ESX3.5 to ESX4.1 during the week.

  Any ideas what may cause this?

  Best regards

  You can check if your ESX identifies your hardware to be compatible by using this Ko EVC.

• Tecra M3 Geforce 6200 driver - says hardware is not supported

  Hello

  I tried to update the Geforce 6200 with Forceware 91,47 of the site of Nvidia driver, but he said that the material was not supported. What are the latest Nvidia drivers, that I can use for the chipset? I want to use the OpenGL 2.0 features, but the driver on the Toshiba site does support OpenGL 1.5 (I think). I have a Tecra M3.

  Also if I added more RAM, it would allow me to increase the amount of RAM used by the card?

  Hello

  As far as I know, this camera has no shared memory and RAM cannot be used to go to the top performance of the graphics card.

  Problem of driver updates, is that on most units, it is not possible to do a simple reason because of physical protection. If the graphics card with the new driver, is forced to higher limit, the result can be damage or overheating with suddenly switch off.

  Your device is quite old and, in my opinion, you shouldn't force them to work at the limit.

  Good bye
