• Tecra 9100 unrecognized hard drive

  Hello
  If I replace the hard drive in my tosh bios indicates no hard disk is installed.
  The new hard drive is MK2016GAP I tried with and without the master/slave relationship.

  Clues?

  Hello

  The MK2016GAP is a 20 GB HARD drive.
  I searched the Internet for the Tecra 9100 and discovered that the phone comes with 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive.
  BIOS shouldn't t so no problem with the size of the HARD drive. The size of the HARD drive is certainly supported.

  So I think it's a problem of jumper or you did not connect the disk HARD corectly.
  I put t know how the jumper was set to your old HDD, but you should check the position of the jumper and put it also on the new HARD drive.

• Satellite Pro 4320 unrecognized HARD drive

  Hi all

  Please bear with me while I explain the disorder, that I am.

  I am a newbie in things pc & they gave me the laptop above to play with. He had only a small 6 GB HARD drive, so I bought a 30 GB internal disc used to install.
  I have the disc and followed the instructions on the internet on fdisk and formatting.

  Put the CD with the XP operating system and put XP on the drive. It worked fine for a few hours until I installed a network thingy usb dongle... then I'm nasty BSOD screens and couldn't go in the disk at all.
  The laptop refuses to recognize the drive.

  I tried to use an old Win 98 boot floppy in and none of the commands fdisk or format will take place, he said that there is no drive C.
  I also tried the XP cd, but will go only where the loading of drivers/utilities, then it stops and says that he does not find the disk, then press F3 to exit.
  I updated the BIOS to new supply & even that did not help. I must have done something wrong for lack of experience to get to this stage that the disc was recognized first.

  BTW, it will still recognize the old small hdd
  Someone at - it suggestions how I could get this disc recognized again?

  Thank you for taking the time to read this

  Hello

  Have you checked if the 30 GB HARD drive is distinguished by the BIOS?
  You need to access the BIOS settings and the full name of the HARD disk and the size must be visible in the BIOS.
  If this is not the case of the something might be wrong with the new HARD drive

  So please check it first and report the results

• HP d530 - unrecognized HARD drive, "Non system disk or disk error"

  Greetings,

  It is a computer from a friend. It seems that he has lost the CD or diskettes shipped with the computer. I see that recognition of HARD drive does not seem to occur in the SETUP (BIOS), so I guess as a floppy disk or a CD some is necessary.

  Only startup options that are currently available are:

  CD-ROM

  USB

  Floppy drive

  No hard drive recognized. I was able to boot to the CD-ROM drive with a Linux LiveCD, but it also confirmed that no HARD drive is recognized at the time. I guess it is possible that port IDE 1 is dead.

  I have tried to reset the CMOS operating in SW50 5 seconds, but that has not helped to recognize the HARD drive.

  The model number is:

  HP d530

  SFF (DC578AV)

  p/n DC578AV

  Restore XP on this machine would be the best option, but if I can get the recognized HARD disk and install a version of Linux, it would be OK also.

  Thanks for any help,

  Doug

  Assuming that the hard drive is on a different IDE channel as the CD drive, try swapping them.  If the CD is always considered and the hard drive is not, it would make sense that the hard drive is faulty.  If the Linux Live CD can not see the hard drive after the Exchange, a sign that it's done.

• N200 unrecognized hard drive

  Hello

  I had a problem and now the hard drive is not recognized when I insert the XP installation CD. (he appears on the BIOS).

  I found this page: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67897

  and I think that's what I need. Only problem is that the driver is looking for a floppy drive and I can't seem to install the USB disk on key.

  It is said:

  "Specify f6flpy32.exe with name full path where you extracted the package in step 1 and double-click on".

  Arian has an idea of what that means? for example, I have the file on: D:\Documents\Personal\Lenovo and my USB is on f: what is the command that I need to write to install the driver on F:?

  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

  Lenovo will disrespect you or you do not understand the steps. The AHCI driver can be called from a floppy drive. Of course your N200 lacks a floppy drive, as well as Lenovo says here... .and I quote...

  Installation Instructions
  
  
  
   1. On another system, extract this package onto the hard drive.
  
   2. Connect a USB-Floppy Disk drive.
  
   3. Specify f6flpy32.exe with the full path name where you extracted
  
      the package in the step 1, and double-click.
  

  You will need to either buy a USB floppy drive, buy a portable internal floppy drive or use one of the other two methods that I posted above to integrate the driver.

  And if you plan to do this, I suggest that you download the latest F6 floppy driver from intel. Located here for 32-bit and 64-bithere.

  You must be sure to hit F6 when asked and specify ICH8M when you are asked to specify the AHCI controller.

• unrecognized hard drive compaq nc 6320

  Have no drive sys restore op original.  Op sys is XP Pro.  Using another Xp Pro CD and enter the recovery console, the disc is visible, chkdsk ok and format ok.

  BIOS indicates the hard disk.  When you use the XP Pro cd, when you are prompted to continue and install op sys, received the message, no hard drive installed? no password has been enabled in the bios.

  Hard SATA placed in the caddy and possibility to format the hard drive.

  Any idea of it please?

  Concerning

  Airchairmaster

  You need the storage SATA ahci ich7 driver loaded at the F6 prompt at the beginning of the XP installation. You can do this either by using a usb floppy drive or "slipstreaming" of the driver in the XP install CD using nLite. Post back for further instructions if you need it. I note the driver you need is not on the driver for the nc6320 page, but this one will work... is a floppy, or can be used with nLite:

• Install the new hard drive into the Pavilion DV2660se - full-size unrecognized

  I have a Pavilion DV2660se and recently began to receive messages from failure on my hard drive.  I was able to order a replacement - it is the same model # former disc, same size, etc..  I installed the drive, then started the system with the recovery discs.  It has been chugging along now for about 3 hours. While the process was ongoing, I was able to look at the drive and to see that it is only accepted with 24 GB instead of the 250 GB is it really.

  Any suggestions on what I can do to install this player and have all recognized?  Thanks for the tips!

  Well, I'm back, don't ask me how, I can at least with all rebuild...

• Dell Dimension 8400-has had to replace hard drive... today no unrecognized ethernet network card

  This has probably happened to 1 million people, but I couldn't find a thread!  I had to replace the hard drive and of course install Windows XP.  Everything went well. Everything works except my internet cable.  I called my provider.  They say that the problem is my pc not their equipment.  I believe them because I can get internet through my wireless on my Dell laptop.  I can't do it on my desktop.  When I go to the command line and type ipconfig I get nothing.  My ethernet card is simply not acknowledged.  I missed a driver when I loaded windows?  When I go to Device Manager I see 1394 network card w / no error showing.  Help!  Thanks in advance for any ideas you may have! : bravohelen:

  
  

• Re: Toshiba Store Art Exteranal 320 HARD drive not recognized

  Hello

  I have a problem with my 320 GB Toshiba Store Art HDD Exteranal.
  I bought it a week ago and everything worked well on different systems: Win 7 (64), Vista (32), XP Pro.
  But today when I tried to use it it displays a message that * unrecognized device * and it cannot install the driver for this device.

  Unfortunately there are no drivers to download for this device drivers Toshiba page.
  I checked it on Win 7 (64) and Vista (32) - same problem.
  I remember, the last time that I used it was on XP Pro.

  I checked the internet for a solution, but in the end I had to write a message here.

  Hope for more help.

  > I bought a week ago and everything worked well on different systems: Win 7 (64), Vista (32), XP Pro.
  > But today when I tried to use it it displays a message this device not recognized and it cannot install the driver for this device.

  If the HARD drive worked perfectly in the past without the use of drivers, then I guess that this has nothing to do with a missing driver.

  In your case I would recommend to check and test the HARD disk on another computer/laptop running a Win XP or Vista.

  If the drive HARD wouldn't connect and would not be functioning with the help of other computers, then a hardware problem is possible

  PS: this external USB hard drives are Plug & Play compatible and so a pilot should not be necessary!

• DC7700: Size maximum hard drive on HP DC7700?

  I recently upgraded to a 2 TB to 3 TB (after the death of the 2 TB).

  I also upgraded from Win7 for Windows 10 at the same time.

  A week later, the operating system won't start.  When I look at the disc (he jumped into another office) and it the disc seemed to only be formatted in ran 2 TB Seagates SeaTools.  It is passed all tests ok.

  Trying to get Win10 to do a repair of the car.  Failed.  Tried to update (save user settings)... failed.  Tried to wipe & re-install... also failed.

  I was wondering if there is a problem with the maximum size of hard drive in the BIOS.  Running 1.06 (the latest news of 2011?).

  I hope someone could shed some light on this?

  Thank you

  John.

  Hi, John:

  There are actually a few problems...

  1. you must not exceed 2 TB for a boot disk when your PC lacks a UEFI BIOS (which is not the dc7700).

  2. If the HARD drive is a SATA III (6.0 Gbps) by car, there is a very good chance he's one of the symptoms listed in this document from HP below...

  http://h20566.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.Oid=3718645&docid=emr_na-c02711513&lang=en&cc=us

  I had the same thing happen to me (the first question is in the document) on my dc7800 when I installed a new 500 GB WD Caviar Black HDD, SATA III HARD disk.

  W7 has worked for awhile and then the disc has not been recognized more.

  I assumed that the drive is defective, so I RMA'd it, and the other does exactly the same thing.

  I swapped the 500 GB of disk with a disk of 1 TB SATA III coming from my 8200 Elite CMT.  The 8200 Elite came from the factory with 1 TB HARD drive.  1 elite 8200 than TB HARD drive worked perfectly well in my dc7800 and the WD 500 GB drive has worked perfectly well in my 8200 Elite (which has a SATA III HARD disk controller).

  IMO, the unrecognized drive is because of this incompatibility problem described in the document of support.

  For more information on disks larger than 2 TB, read this white paper from HP below.

  You should be able to use the 3 TB, such as a data reader drive if you format to GPT, provided that the incompatibility problem does not exist when it is not be used as a startup disk.

  http://h20566.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.Oid=3459241&docid=emr_na-c02826744&docLocale=en_US

  Curiously, the dc7900 and 8000 Elite PC, I, do not have that issue with discs hard non - HP SATA III - even if their controllers are only SATA II as well.

• Library of photos on external hard drive: not possible repair

  Hello world

  Today, when I tried to open my library of Photos, Photos crashed. After I have reopened, Photos asked that the library must be repaired. I started who, but after 2%, Photos crashed with "an unexpected error has occurred." A restart does not solve this problem. I still can't view the contents of the library package.

  I saw on messages earlier (for example, 10.10.3 Photos can not repair permissions), the output of this Terminal command can reveal the underlying error:

  find ~ $TMPDIR...------(-+ flags sappnd, uappnd, schg, uchg o! - user $UID o! - perm-600 o - acl-) 2 >/dev/null | WC-l

  Outputs this line in my case: 4471

  Please note that I'm storing my photo library, including all images imported into a separate external hard drive connected via USB.

  So perhaps the command above (where I'm not sure what it does) may not be to give the required output to track down the problem.

  Following the crash of the pictures, here is the output of the Console:

  Hi Frank,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  If I understand you correctly, the external USB hard drive (HDD) appears in the control panel but does not seem to be detected in my computer screen. I will certainly help you to question, however, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

  (a) what is the brand and model number. the USB HDD?

  (b) has detected before HARD drive in my computer screen? If so, did you do changes on the computer before this problem?

  (c) that you get an unrecognized USB device notification error message?

  The unit is probably go up at the same point one of the partitions and thus becoming "invisible". In

  in order to further diagnose the issue, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Try running the Fixit tool from the link below.

  Also, run the next fixit to solve common problems with USB devices.

  Diagnose and automatically fix the Windows USB problems

  If the problem persists, try the following method.

  Method 2:

  Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

  1. Open Manager devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
  3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
  4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.

  Plug in the removable USB device and perform a test to ensure that the problem is solved

• When I deleted a picture of my MacBook, why it also remove the external hard drive?

  So I tried to help my wife to free up space on his MacBook Pro by putting all of his photos on an external hard drive. After iPhoto slide the hard disk and wait 40 minutes so that he could transfer, I wanted to make sure it worked. I ejected the disk and then plugged in. Of course, all iphotos were still there. Just to be sure, I deleted one file in the folder on the computer's iphoto. I went to my shock and horror, the external hard drive, that it has been deleted it too! How is that possible? I've been scouring the Internet trying to retrieve this file with no luck. It was not in the trash. There is a tab "recently deleted". Time machine was not turned on. iCloud shows nothing. I can't download any software, because the computer is completely filled. How is it possible that by deleting this folder on the computer he did also leave the hard drive? AND it has not been saved in the trash? I have used PC, and whenever I need something in return, he was ALWAYS in the trash. And if I deleted something on the computer with an external hard drive connected, it would NEVER be removed from the external hard drive at the same time. I'm so frustrated and feeling SO bad that I deleted a folder with important pictures of our kids. Is that what I can do to recover the pictures? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  You used Time Machine at all? I see you say it was not on, but it never on and is at - it a backup Time Machine on the Macbook Pro?
