  • I copy / paste a file from a hard drive to a usb port and now I lost the USB I get the hard drive?

    I move a file from a hard drive to a usb port and now I lost the USB I get the hard drive

    "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
    also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
    sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
    the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
    the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
    Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
    downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
    example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
    be very poor now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
    using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
    already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)
    http://www3.TELUS.NET/mikebike/restoration.html but there are several
    others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer (do not
    it on yours because that would overwrite the files you want
    Undelete) and bring it to you on a CD or thumb drive to try.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
    a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
    expensive and may or may not work in your case.

  • Pavilion S5-1204: USB Ports does not: Windows 7 HP Pavilion Slimline

    Hi all

    Yesterday all of a sudden the USB ports are not read.  I have cameras and use a data transfer cable or a card reader to transfer to the office.  Now they do not read.  Tried the front and back of the usb ports.   However, the optical mouse that uses a usb device works.   I don't understand how the mouse works and the purse strings of data transfer and the readers aren't.

    Help!

    Update: I did troubleshoot a HP check and update driver.  The screen messages

    USB root hub: this device does not work correctly.

    The current tab:

    Generic USB Hub (6)

    1 port available

    Power required: 0mA

    Solved.

    I've narrowed the problem to the camera. Very strange. The camera will take pictures and display them on the screen. But something is happening internally where the image will not transmit or transfer it via a usb device.

    I have another device with a transfer device and it works. So it seems I have to buy a new digital camera. BTW, it is a Nikon S2800 - not recommended.

    Hello

    It seems that you have installed the CD Microsoft Windows operating system and not the Toshiba Recovery CD
    In this case, the installation of Toshiba drivers available on the driver page is necessary.
    Have you installed all the drivers in the correct order?

    For most installation instructions are placed on the driver page, and you must always follow the order of installation recommended in this document.

    Have you installed the chipset utility? This Intel application is one of the most important applications and must be installed at the beginning.

  • Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

    Iso file of windows xp can directly be installed USB on a formatted hard drive?

    Not directly.

    There is a SMALL chance that if your hardware supports it (unfortunately never say you anything on your PC or BIOS), you can boot from a USB stick or an optical drive and install Windows XP like this.
    But it is unlikely.
    In addition, tell us what you mean by 'windows xp iso file. This is very vague, and we do not know what you are talking about.
    Finally, if you want to ask questions here, really read the answers and recognize them in some way. Here is a link to your other thread:
  • USB key into the USB port does not appear in 'my computer '.

    Original title:-drive Flash USB port does not appear

    I have laptop Dell A 4 years and cannot use USB ports. My data flash drive lights flash but nothing shows up in 'MY Computer'

    It turns out that there is a problem connecting to the motherboard... so it ' s not worth repair. However, I believe that I can connect to the Internet by the yellow cable supplied with the router. There is also a card I can buy known as PCMIA card that will give me 2 additional USB ports. It's cheap enough to give it a try.
    Once more a big thank you to all those who have offered their advice on this matter. I'm amazed that so many people are willing to give of their time to help a novice
