Use floppy disks with Windows XP.

I want to run a few disks using Windows XP. Should be simple.  I tried using A:\setup and also double click on the Setup icon. Nothing happens.

Any suggestions?

I was using a reader external floopy. But I didn't have it works on another computer, also WinXP.  I will go back to the other computer and try again, maybe using a different USB port.

  • Windows 8 corrupted installation TrueCrypt encrypted another disk with Windows XP

    Hello, I need help. I just installed new Windows 8 on an empty partition of the secondary drive.

    The first drive I got the previous installation of Windows (XP). Unfortunately, I forgot, this hard drive is encrypted TrueCrypt. Windows 8 now works OK, but the disc with Windows XP seems to be empty. The other partition of the disk with Windows 8 works fine.

    I have the TrueCrypt rescue disk and he managed to restore the TrueCrypt Boot, but when I try to start, he writes, that no bootable partition was found. It allows us to decipher the drive and when I start it, it seems to work, but it is too slow and I need to know if this can help. Try to restore a Volume of TrueCrypt header in Windows 8 fails ("way of wrong installation, wrong password or not a TrueCrypt Volume"). Pourrait installing Windows 8 format the drive?

    (Sorry for my bad English)

    Later: I tried data recovery, and it shows some files and folders http://postimg.org/image/9xt33kmw5/

    Hi Daniel,.

    The drive that contains Windows XP displays empty because the file format of Windows XP is FAT (File allocation table) that is not supported by Windows 8. Windows 8 uses NTFS (New Technology File System). I would say to contact TrueCrypt support to check why the description of disk takes a long time. In Windows 8 If you want to encrypt or decrypt the data, you can use bit-locker installation. I suggest you to see the following links for more information on encryption of bit-locker.

    original title: Palm Treo 750 GSM Smartphone

    Looks like my trusty Palm 750 (at & t) used to synchronize with Windows 7, 64-bit.

    It is understandable and disappointing.

    Is there any kind of emulator-type of a solution to synchronize?

  • Try to mirror a disk with Windows 7 Professional

    Any guidance would be appreciated.
    What more frustrating, it is only while creating an interlaced together in place is documented, mirroring doesn't seem to be.

  • Re: Using Recovery Disk with portable Satellite

    This laptop seems to have a virus that passes without being detected by Windows Defender and Avast.
    After about 10 minutes, everything slows down, and sometimes the screen turns off. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes to make something happen.

    So I figure it of time to use the recovery discs that I did when I bought the computer - about a year ago. I thought that by putting the recovery drive #1 DVD in the drive and reboot it would start automatically (Windows Vista). But nothing happens. So, how can I reload the operating system from the recovery disk?

    Best Buy wants $200 to do, but I would do it myself. Help!

    Hello

    It is easy to do:

    Start your laptop and press the F12 key repeatedly Boot Menu will appear
    Put recovery media in the optical disc drive
    With the help of the arrows (UP/DOWN) select the CD-ROM drive, and then press ENTER
    Installation will start and please just follow the menu on the screen.

    Please let us know if everything was OK.

  • Portege R830 PT320E: Use of fingerprints with Windows Biometric Framework

    + Question: +.

    Is it possible to use the management software of fingerprint Authentec Truesuite AES1660 from toshiba with a compatible driver WBF? Is there an alternative freeware for enforcement truesuite using Windows Biometric Framework WBF?

    Hi people,

    I intend to use my good old roboform application in combination with the build page in fingerprintreader. The application can recognize only a fingerprint scanner driver that takes advantage of the WBF (Windows Biometric Framework) + a fingerprints like truesuite management software.

    The toshiba driver uses no WBF (you won´t find an icon of the biometrice device in the control panal).
    The way that it work´s if you use the pilot train Authentec.

    But then the biometric application in the control panal informs you that a management application is necessary (but you are not able to get the application truesuite (toshiba) as a software without the toshiba driver).

    So the way is to use the TrueSuite application downloadable on the Authentec Web site, but this will cause additional costs.

    Help, please.
    Arnd

    Hello

    Looks like you need to use the Authentec software.

    As far as I know you can download the software for R830 of AuthenTec fingerprint from the European pilot of Toshiba page but this version of the software only works with WIN XP.

    For Win 7 32 bit and 64 bit, you can download the software of Toshiba fingerprint.
