• PDF files shows no not in windows Explorer

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium
  THAT IS TO SAY 8

  Occasionalyy, after I download a PDF file, I can't see the file. Finished downloading the file, but does not appear. However, if I go to download another file, downloaded files appear in the window "Save as" Windows Explorer, but not in the regular Windows Explorer window. I can open the files from there the window "save under" clicking and choosing 'open file '.

  It's strange because this does not happen to all files. It occurs also on ordinary IE downloads, but not as often.

  Any ideas on how to make visible files?

  Thank you

• Windows vista USB flash drive installation AND recover the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disk

  Hi all

  I formatted my laptop some time ago. Now I want to reinstall windows vista (came along with my laptop). The thing is due to a problem that my CD drive does not work so I would like to install windows vista by using a USB key. Can you get it someone please let me know if this is possible... If Yes, how I've go ahead make a bootable USB.

  As someone can tell me if there is a way to retrieve the WINDOWS KEY from the recovery disc.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  This can help, but you will need a Vista system to create the working bootable USB key:http://www.askvg.com/how-to-create-bootable-usb-drive-to-install-windows-vista/

  As for the product key, it should be on a sticker on the laptop (usually on the bottom). If it is not readable, contact the manufacturer for further assistance. As we said already, the product key is not on the installation disc.

  Replace broken laptop optical drives is not too difficult, you can see this as another option.

  Hi Nate53,

  ·         You have the latest drivers installed for the computer?

  a. click the Start button and then right click on my computer. Click on properties.

  b. click on the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager. Expand the Bus USB controllers section by clicking on the sign «+»

  c. each of the devices under the USB controller section uninstall by right-clicking on each one, then click on uninstall.

  d. close Device Manager, and then restart your computer. Windows XP re - automatically installs the USB controllers in your computer, so you don't have to do anything further. Your computer is now running properly USB devices.

   

  Method 2: Log on to the manufacturer's Web site and update the latest chipset drivers and other updates to the device driver.

• Trying to recover a Windows 8 compatible USB flash drive

  Can someone help me please? I think that I have a hard drive failure or a fault. It specifies the drive name: TOSHIBA MQ01ABF050 and C:\;D:\ volume. I have a HP Pavilion Sleekbook with windows 8.1 14 TS (I upgraded from the Windows 8 which came with the laptop) and I unconsciously created a recovery image on a USB compatible of Windows 8 successfully when I lived already problems with my portable hard drive. Later, I discovered that it is not recommended to create a recovery image on a USB compatible of windows 8. I hope to just get back to factory settings and wipe out all my files if it can help me my laptop in working condition I have already backed up my important documents to USB. My next question is 1.) The recovery image that I created with the usb it's 8 compatible windows won't work if I try to do a factory reset? 2.) the recovery image I created everything with the mistakes already, will be technically 'clean', which means he has everything needed for a laptop running once I replace my hard drive or perform recovery with hard flow drive up? (3.) I will be able to restore from the recovery partition? or affect the hard drive failure that animate as well? Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance to those who can help me.

  Note: my USB flash drive is also compatible with windows 8 AND 7. Is it possible to transfer only in just a usb compatible windows 7 if I encounter problems because of the compatibility of windows 8 flash player, I used for the creation of recovery image. Thank you.

  The question of compatibility you're talking about is one where many flash drives are seen as a local instead of removable storage disk - and HP Recovery Manager wouldn't use it to create a recovery media. Since you were able to create your USB support has been recognized as compatible for use. You should be fine with recovery use.

  Hello:

  Looking at your other posts it seems that you have yourself painted in a corner.

  Since there is no inheritance or the setting USB auto in the BIOS, your only option would be to remove the hard drive, then put it in a USB drive enclosure sata hard laptop, plug in another PC so it can be read, download the drivers there, you need and copy to you user profile on the hard drive removed.

  Chapter 5 maintenance manual provides the procedures of withdrawal and replacement for the hard drive.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c03733656

  Reinstall the hard drive, run the drivers, and you should be good to go.

  These would be the drivers you need for your model...

• 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.

• HP Elitedesk 800 G2 SFF: external hard drive not detected in the BIOS. Only USB Flash drives are detected.

  Hi all

  I received recently 2 new HP desktop computers.

  HP Elitedesk 800 G2 SFF

  HP Elitedesk 800 G2 TWR

  The goal is to test our real W7 x 64 image on these machines and to inject the missing drivers in the image.

  MDT 2010 to create a deployment on a USB hard disk drive.

  This disc of deployment is already used on 16 different models of HP in the company (Elitebook, zBook, EliteDesk) to install our image so I know it works.

  Unfortunately, the two HP Elitedesk 800 G2, I can't start the boot disk but I cannot to USB for a USB key.

  The USB drive is not detected and not proposed in the BIOS Menu of STARTUP.

  Only the internal HD, external USB Flash Disk, DVD and network devices are detected.

  Here's what I already checked or tried:

  • Latest Version of the BIOS installed (2.05)
  • UEFI Boot has been disabled. (not supported by our record of deployment)
  • USB ports are enabled (front and rear).
  • All types of USB devices are allowed in the BIOS
  • The start command has been changed to start with USB devices.
  • Legacy support is active and Secure Boot disabled
  • Delete the keys to secure boot
  • Reset secure by default startup keys
  • This morning, I created a new disk deployment on a USB Flash drive and it works!

  So, it seems that only Flash USB drives are detected.

  I know it is possible to return the flag removalble on a USB device to cheat the system and make it appear as a disk fixed, but I want a simple solution.

  Does anyone know a fix or a workaround for this problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  For those interested in the answer, here's the final results.

  It turns out that the hard 500 GB external drive can be detected if it is fomatted in FAT32.

  It's strange because my 16 GB USB Flash drive formatted in NTFS works very well.

  In any case, I'll create a FAT32 Partition to the Boot MDT files and put my picture (because the file is too big for FAT32 partition) on the secondary partition (formatted as NTFS).

  Thanks to the technical pre-sales team of HP who helped me with this!

• Windows does not recognize the USB flash drive

  Hello
  My USB does not work when I plug. It seems that Windows recognizes the device because it is found in the Solution Explorer window, but if I want to create a folder or a file on the USB key I have the following message:
  "Cannot find this article.
  It is no longer in < %3="" null :="" optext=""> . Check the location of the components and try again. " < br=""> also the files that are copied to the USB flash drive are not visible in Explorer and it looks like the drive is empty.

  I want to emphasize that the same (Kingston) USB flash drive works perfectly under Windows XP operating system on another computer so it may not be a problem with the device. The same problem also appears when you use a different USB (another manufacturer).

  Thank you!

  Hey, 101 a.

  , I just posted a fix I found for my USB flash/go to work again.  It was a very simple solution, too.

  I unplugged all USB devices first, then tried my USB jump drive again.  IT WORKED! I've narrowed the problem to the new printer that I use.  It's a Mono Dell Laser MFP 1125.  Whenever it is plugged into a USB port, my USB doesn't work.  All other devices work, but not the USB is the printer is connected

  I don't know what done to block the flash/USB key, but unplug printer allows the jump command to work again.  I will contact Dell on what did the printer driver to block the flash player.  Just an info on the fix I found.

• Windows 7 does not detect not USB flash drive

  Hi, any help much appreciated on this. Windows 7 does not detect USB flash drives on my laptop. I know that readers of work on other computers and all the USB ports. He does not play sound when plugged in the first time and does not anywhere on my computer. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

  Assuming that you have several disks that work on other computers...

  If you have tried several USB drives on the same port

  AND

  This port does not recognize the USB device plugged in, while the port is not operational.

  IF

  All ports respond in the same way

  THEN

  You don't have either not installed the correct drivers

  OR they did not physically.

• Laptop HP 17 p100: how the usb flash drive big that I have to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  How the big usb flash drive do I need to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

  Yes

  Hello;

  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

  There is really no way accurately guess in advance, with one of the reasons being that the options are available when you do this.  An option creates a recovery drive minimum with what is needed to repair the operating system.  Another option creates an image that is able to completely restore the operating system and its partition.  Thus, the size can vary from 4 GB to the size of the partition to the OS.

  Myself, I found as build-in recovery to be unreliable, especially those of Ms.  So instead, I use a third-party imaging/restoration solution known as Macrium Reflect.

  What I recommend is the following:
  (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
  (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
  (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

  My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.

  I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!

  NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

  Good luck
