USB key shows in 'remove hardware safely', but not under the heading of discs

• Problems with Vista after disconnecting external USB key without using 'remove hardware safely '.

  A week ago, I unplugged my external Seagate USB drive without using a 'Remove hardware safely' first of my Vista pc.  Since reconnecting the drive, I had a series of problems.  The drive itself seems to be ok.   I am able to read and write to files on the disk.  I'm not able to do is the following:

  (1) open disk management.  It hangs on "Connecting to Virtual Disk Service".

  (2) stopping or starting without windows to snap or take an extra long time to stop or start.

  (3) failed to start Google Picasa3 or Adoble Photoshop Elements 7.  They both hang him.  I am able to use other programs such as Microsoft Office, Outlook, Miro, Norton Antivirus.

  Points 1 and 2 above work fine if the drive is not connected.  I plugged the drive into another computer (Windows 7) and ran Seagate disk checking utility.  He came clean back (no bad sectors) so that the drive is NOT corrupted.  (Check of the Seagate utility disk hung on my pc Vista.)   It seems that something related to the disk under Vista service is corrupted.

  I also see "driver has detected an error in the controller on \Device\Harddisk2\DR2." event message for different devices.  I also tried a restore to a point just before that the problem occurred.

  I don't want to reinstall Vista therefore looking for a solution.  Thank you.

• Icon 'Remove hardware safely' is missing from the notification area

  I just reinstalled Win7 X 64 business but found that the icon 'Remove hardware safely' is missing from the notification area when I plug a USB key or external HARD drive (they don't work either by the way, I can view files in them no problem), I tried the solution of workaround suggested in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/safely-remove-hardware-icon-missing-and-cant-eject/e9fda0a2-c308-4853-bf1d-a3926ff0fcd1?page=1&tm=1299855382970#footer , but it does not resolve the issue, I don't see the USB stick or external HARD disk in the dialog 'remove hardware safely '. The only way I can eject a USB device is click on the drive in windows Explorer and select "eject" while even "eject" is not available for an external HARD drive

  Does anyone know how to troubleshoot it?

• LPT1 in the hardware Manager, but not in the virtual machine settings. Parallel port software unable to find LPT. Windows 7, 64-bit and XP virtual

  Hallo,

  the forum is full of questions similar to mine and everything seems complete without useful answers some time early last year. I would like to give a try today to see if I get a solution.

  Have Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit and installed XP mode to be able to use the chip programming hardware (GALEP-III), which is connected via the Parallel Port. Downloaded XP mode later than yesterday (24.02.2011) Microsoft.

  In the XP box, the LPT1 port appears in the hardware Manager. But it does not appear in the settings for the XP mode. The Galep software starts just fine, but can't find the PARALLEL port.

  As written above, there are many people who have the same problem and seem to have gotten no solution. One piece of advice I found was to modify the VMC

  LPT1 (378 h-37Fh)

  1

  The above did not work. I think it was for a different version of XP-mode.

  Then there was advice on LPT need 378 h-37Fh. It's fine with my pc.

  Then, there was a Council to stop the 'Print Spool' Service on the host pc. I tried in vain.

  So, if there is a solution to my problem, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

  (Note: I'm not interested to connect a printer.) I have an IC programming material that can connect only through a parallel port. It also comes with a security dongle. GALEP III).

  Good bye.

• Shows in Live view mode, but not in the browser

  Sorry if this is a newbie question but im new to Dreamweaver. I changed the CSS for navigation and cursor in a model free css I downloaded it, it renders perfectly live design view in Dreamweaver, but no changes are visible on any browser I open it in? There's a Jquery script related to cursor im not sure if this could be done somehow?

  "No change is apparent in any browser" do you mean when you use the preview in the browser of your files the or are you talking about the rendering of a downloaded page browser?

  If you could post a link to the page, he should be out all the guesswork.

Will I have a problem if I remove just my camera, or do I have to take other measures to ensure that it is safe to unplug?

• Problem with the icon 'Remove hardware safely' on the bottom of the screen

  How can I get the icon 'Remove hardware safely' to stop making its sound? It makes the bonk sound which indicates that you can remove your device. It slows down the PC games and is just annoying. I used the troubleshooter and checked all USB options that have been listed under my 'pilot' and the message I get says that they are enabled and work correctly. When he makes his tone, the icon in the taskbar disappears and reappears then. It does not seem to be no harm in or affecting any other thing except the PC games we play on our computer. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  Hi Chrisjurrians,

  To turn off the sound for the connection / disconnection of devices, follow these steps:

  a. click Start and select Control Panel

  b. click on device sound and Audio

  c. under device sound and Audio, click its tab

  d. under program events, select the device connection and in the Strait, make scrolling the drop down for None.

  e. also repeat the same for disconnection device

  This should do the trick.

  Let us know if that helps.

• I have an external hard drive and the althogh sound in 'remove hardware safely', it is not listed in 'my computer '.

  I have a HDD external and well that his "safely remove hardware" that is not listed in 'my computer' the problem is I am backing up Paolo and if I can not find I can't do.

  When I go to the hardware / device mananger it is in "O" but I can not find drive O

  Can someone please help.

  This external hard drive works on other systems?

  The drive will appear in the top of the disk management window?  If so, look at the column layout, Type, file system and status.  The "file system" must be FAT or NTFS.  From your description, it appears that Windows does not recognize the partition as being to the format in a way that he can use.  You may need to delete the existing partition (attention: this will remove all files that may exist on the disk), and then create a new partition in FAT32 or NTFS format.  Advice to do this, right-click the disk, choose 'Help', then go to:
  -> How To disk management...-> manage the volumes of base-> Delete, Create, or Format.

• New appearance of the icon 'Remove hardware safely' in my taskbar

  Hello.. I'm using windows vista on a computer acer laptop. Today I have been updated from my iphone and press the eject button as itunes tells us to do. Then I tried to update my inano and he would not recognize it when I plugged into the USB port. When I checked it appeared that my iphone is still connected. I stopped him, left and a few hours after I got home, I got a blue screen on my laptop with orders written about it. So I ctrl-alt-del and started in normal mode and it started. Now I have an icon 'remove hardware safely' in my taskbar and have no idea why its there. Can someone help me? THX

  Hello

  The icon is normally so it was probably worth hide if inactive and because of
  the incident you said he was not idle. It should sooner or later hides.

  To check its setting - right click on taskbar - properties - Notification area - customize.

  I hope this helps.
