I have an old Dell with Windows 98 that I need to get pictures out of.  I understand that there is a 'case' I can drag the hard drive that has a USB cord that would allow me to download on a newer computer.  What is this product?  Where could I buy such an article?

It's called an external enclosure, external hard drive enclosure, or
external hard drive enclosure.

You can get one at almost any web store - Amazon.com, newegg.com, etc.. Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP

    If, as you say, they are completely separate installations on separate hard disks, each with there own version of PS for example, there should be no way that they could interfere with each other! I assume you are using a form any of Boot Manager to load a specific version of Mac OS x?

    I did something similar at the start in a similar situation with client compatibility and not had a problem with either interfere with others!

    However, you share the programs somehow between different OS, so that would be another matter.

    Dear apple supports,

    I have install Windows 10 external HARD disk and connect with my Mac by USB. When I select the system startup on boot disk is windows 10. I got a message "you cannot change the diskette on the selected disk. The bless tool was unable to put the current startup disk. »

    There are two ways to install Windows on your MacBook Pro. You can use the Boot Camp Assistant, located here details: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ or you can use a virtual machine, Parallels, Fusion or VirtualBox. Details are found on their respective sites.

  • Hard disk drive bad, need to use e-recovery in new HD

    They gave me a laptop aspire v5 - 122p and the ALT + F12 for internal recovery does not work. The hard drive and the partition seems corrupt and damaged. Windows 8, try to start, but a message said: there was something wrong and that he will try hard to adapt but it restarts and do the same thing in a loop. I scanned the hard drive with an application which allow me to run it from a bootable usb flash drive. The hard drive came with errors in the sector.

    If I install a new hard drive, I can order an erecovery disk and install all or what I need to do something special? I read somewhere that own hard discs must be prepared initially with another set of tools provided by Acer. The tools provided in the link are in a named ISO "Format CD".

    Yep, it's possible and an unallocated HARD disk is preferable in some cases.

  • How to disable the file hiding (changing options for hard disk does not work)

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help me with the following problem:

    -J' need to open a file of 16 GB of content in third party software (Stata) who reads completely in memory.

    -Due to Windows caching file, necessary to get the procedure done about 32 GB cache files and Stata access physical memory.

    -As I have only 24 GB of physical RAM file is read later part of virtual memory, which leads to serious performance problems.

    I unchecked the box 'Enable write on the device cache' to my hard drive. That did not help. Is there a way to disable the Cache during PLAYBACK of files?

    Thank you very much in advance for any help!

    Tobi

    The write cache and virtual memory are different. Virtual memory is an extension of the physical memory residing on the HARD disk where Windows is installed. Normally, the virtual memory is about twice the size of the current physical memory. Write cache is an exclusive setting for external hard drives only and has no effect in internal hard drives.

    In your case, please note that full 24GO of RAM will not be allocated to the program. At least 1 GB will be reserved for windows, so the rest of the programs are moved to virtual memory, which means that the HARD drive. It is not recommended to disable virtual memory because it can cause stability problems. In addition, the files are not copied directly in memory, even if they are big. Instead, the parts of the file are available and this area, including the incremental values and material, are stored in the memory. So if all of a sudden, you access an area of the file which is very far away from the previous location, it takes time as the new area, as well as differentials and material value of a few bytes is also copied to the memory. The box of files previously displayed is erased from the memory.

    For performance improvements, you can go for the SSD, RAM with higher clock speed (must be compatible with the motherboard) as processor as well as the upgrade. However, please note that the process of accessing a file even as mentioned previously, but the speed will increase because of the higher bandwidth and the clock frequency.

  • Aspire V5 - 471P restore to clean the hard disk - Windows 8

    My son has a laptop Aspire V5 - 471P identical to mine (I liked it and it seemed easier to maintain two identical pieces). Bought off eBay sound but mine was new.  Unfortunately his hard drive failed, so I'm not going to adapt to a new.

    The V5 does not come with restore discs but mine can do a restore USB or can I clone my hard drive.  I prefer the latter option, so I can't go through the palaver to install all software, but I wonder if I can get a team when it comes to recording.

    What should I do as Windows registry is concerned?  There is no license key based on the laptop or on the guarantee and the narrow.

    I suggest that you create a backup media on your work machine restore as soon as possible.
    Otherwise, you would need to buy media from Acer.
    I don't know about V5 but my required Acer as a DVD, but also the USB stick for the game. When you create the set you will be shown the requirement for your machine.
    You can use the media created on both of your machines. There should be no need to worry about recording. This is happening automatically that the OEM key is embedded in the machine - Microsoft has eliminated the need of stickers and therefore are no longer used. Note that if you use Windows media from a different source, it will require the serial number of this version - the embedded key will not work.

  • HP Probook s 4545: defective HARD disk factory replacement needs and so new OS.

    My HP Probook s 4545 was shipped with a HARD drive failure, the system could not book and therefore enter the diagnostics screen black and white, the after he failed the HARD drive tests, it looks like no operating system found etc.. I went to my local reps of HP and they said that the HARD necessary replacement disk and I need to install a new OS. With the HARD drive replaced, I have to install a new OS, however, I was given a CD of the OS (for w7 and w8, the pc has been displayed as w8, but came as w7) on the purchase, but it did not come with a CD key. I don't want to have the windows prompt activate coming on my screen so often, so I was wondering if I could somehow source a CD key for my CD of the OS. The normal response would be to purchase a new authentic copy, however, it was not my fault as it was, as stated, a faulty HARD drive.

    No - the info is in the BIOS, not on the old hdd.

  • USB drivers for HP50g on Windows 8 (64-bit)

    Hi all

    Has anyone tried installing the USB drivers for the 50g on Windows 8?

    Conn4x installed well but USB drivers comes. I tried all available troubleshooting options using the features of Windows 8 compatibility (XP, Vista and 7) and none of them worked.

    So I was wondering, maybe someone here may have already installed and could share some tips.

    Thank you

    Márcio

    I read messages in other forums indicating that the conn4x and the USB driver peut be installed.

    The post on the forum indicated that Windows 8 comes pre-configured with the possibility for signed drivers enabledapplication.

    In order to install the USB driver, signed driver enforcement must be disabled.

    See this forum comp.sys.hp48 post it here:

  • Using of Windows 8, need to remove outside wireless connections that interfere with my wireless connection - unable to do

    Two unwanted connections always connect, and I guess they are somewhere in the neighborhood.  'Delete' never appears, I read means that they have security blocks are not actually using my computer.  However, they interfere in some way because whenever I have remove control of these two connections and click on mine, they come immediately with the checkmarks.  Therefore, the Explorer, "you are not connected to the internet."  Quite frustrating.  Sure that if I use explore 9 or 10, as note am access to explore my office rather than splash screen.

    Link in double wire and content:

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/IE/Forum/IE10-windows_8/need-to-delete-outside-wireless-connections-that/3413ce5b-400C-4C83-9cab-6fd54d13e1e6

    need to remove outside wireless connections that interfere with my wireless connection - unable to do.

    2 outside wireless users interfere with my wifi connection. Cannot remove them. Today, my wifi was totally blocked on Windows 8 with an asterisk in addition to the wifi icon. Finally, shut down the computer for a while, started again and immediately accessible all 3 networks and disconnected two parasites. However, computer won't let me remove them entirely (i.e., no ' delete'). Is there a way to do it - makes me crazy? One person suggested access "Manage network connections", but couldn't find where, he said, it would be. Thank you.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply. Refer to these methods and check the status of the issue.

    Method 1:

    a. open the charms bar, click/click on settingsand then click / tap on the Network icon.

    b. click right , or tap and hold on the wireless network (ex: Brink-router) in the list of networksand click/click on forget this network.

    Note: Windows does not provide the option 'Forget this network' if there is a profile high-speed Mobile which is supplied by the carrier. The option appears only when a custom or user profile is created.

    Note: 'Forget this network' is not available for networks wireless listed that not create you a network profile for.

    Method 2:

    Alternatively, you can refer to this method:

    a. press the Windows and X keys .

    b. click on (Admin) command prompt.

    (c) in the command prompt, copy and paste the following command and press ENTER.

    NOTE: this command will give you the list of all profiles of wireless network on your PC.

    netsh wlan show profiles

    d. in the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER.

    NOTE: this command will delete the wireless network profile.

    netsh wlan delete profile name = "WirelessProfileName".

    For example, if I wanted to delete my profile from the 7shp (name) listed wireless network, I must type the following command exactly.

    " netsh wlan delete profile name = ' ' 7shp '

    e. close the command prompt and check the status of the issue.

    I hope this helps.

  • Old hard drive PS3 by USB box not detected by Windows Vista

    Hello

    I recently updated my old HD PS3 40 GB with a 500 GB one. Since then, I bought an external HD for my old HD, in the hope that I could use it as a hard drive for some files I have. However, I encountered a big problem - Windows Vista does not detect the HD.

    So far I read a lot of posts on the internet with people having similar problems, but with no definitive answer, so I hoped to get :)

    So far, I've tested the speaker on both the different 40 GB and new 500 GB PS3 in HD, as well as 2-3 computers. Nor are detected by windows... both have the power (green light is on, and I can hear the disc rotation), but are not detected on the management of the devices or programs in 3rd (SwissKnife). As far as the computer is concerned, nothing is connected.

    Thinking that it was probably a hardware problem, I whipped my laptop HD out and connected on a separate computer and it worked without me even having to he invites. This leads me to believe that the device works perfectly and its something about the PS3 HD, who doesn't like Windows.

    The only thing I have not tried is put my old hard drive to the PS3 in the PS3 and reformatting. The only reason for this is a screw on the case of the PS3 has decided, that he's not budging despite all my efforts. Its now 12:45 and I'm too tired to fight with 1 screw more! :) I really don't know not how tabling in so well, 3 others went fine and I deliberately don't screw them in tight with the new HD after I read about the problems people have had by removing the screws.

    Someone at - it suggestions at all? How to get Windows to recognize that this has something plugged in, on how to remove that last screw embarrassing! Whatever that either would be appreciated!

    Thanks in advance

    Hello
     
    Check if the drive works very well with the game station.
    Chipset driver update and see if that makes a difference.
     
    Check if the HARD drive is detected in the Device Manager or disk management tool.
    1. click on start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.
    2. from the list of issues, expand disk drives and check the sub for its detection.
    1. Click Start, type diskmgmt.msc and press to enter.
    2. check if the HARD drive is detected.
     
    If the HARD drive is not detected, try the next step.
    Step 1: Connect the HARD drive to the computer and find the hardware check if it detects. To do this, try the following steps.
    1. click on start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.
    2. from the list of items, click drives.
    3. click on the Action menu, and then click check for material changes.
    4. follow the wizard to complete the task.
    5. If there is no progress, then click the Action menu and click Add legacy hardware to install the device.
     
    Post back with the results, so that we can help you further.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium - missing policies for hard disks tab

    Recently, I noticed that there is not a tab strategies for any storage device connected to my computer, choose whether the write cache is enabled or not on the device. In addition, my external hard drive is not coming in the window and remove safety equipment, but my flash drives invented.
    I have recently reinstalled windows in October, due to a change of motherboard.

    Intel Core i5 4570
    8 GB OF DDR3 MEMORY

    It seems that the external hard drive was in a Usb 2.0 port. By connecting to a USB 3.0 instead, the policies tab came.

  • Inspiron s 660: hard disk failure. Need advice please.

    Long story short my sister gave me a s Inspiron 660 she received as a gift a few years back (legitimate).  She said that was no longer working and I could.  I suspected a faulty hard drive and after several diagnostic tests later confirmed the WD Blue crashed the original; complete failure. Now, here's where I need advice:

    1. when it has received, it came not with a physical disk from the Windows 8.0 operating system.  It was pre-installed and then upgraded through its work of departmental to 8.1 it.

    2. I can't access the code of Windows because it is in the BIOS.

    3. I have a hard drive to work with Windows 7 installed and tried hooking laptop to see if he should realize that he was a long shot at best.  As you have probably concluded he was not recognized.

    4. I thought wiping one of my hard drives and do a clean install of Windows 10.

    Question: With a new hard drive (or possibly an SSD) would work #4 or I still have problems with the BIOS and Windows embedded product code?

    Question: What do you suggest I should try?  It's a nice little system and everything is clean and stable.  I have someone who needs a system, but can't afford it, and I thought I'd give something that would meet its needs.

    Thank you.

    Re: 4. I thought wiping one of my hard drives and do a clean install of Windows 10.

    Yes, it should work, but to do this, you must either buy an OEM copy of W-10, which has its own product key.
